1. Guilty I Am
Death in front of my feet
The path I no longer see
The interferences of yours to my so wanted solitude
The stars rise from under darkness
And leads me
It is the only course open to me
Your shadow is stuck with the enemy
With no where to go
Nowhere to hide
Sleepless dreaming of no agony
Unimpeachable appear you now too close to me
And nowhere to run to
No one to blame
I hope this hunting will come to an end
Blood is all over moats
Of my deep sunken memory
The shattered soul of mine
Will it ever healed again?
This maze of endless fear from unknown emptiness
It leads me
Crossing the ominous signs opened to me
Your shadow is stuck with the enemy
With no face to seek
No words to tell
Sleepless dreaming of no agony
Unimpeachable appear you now too close to me
With no one to turn to
And no trail of home
I hope this haunting will come to an end.
2. Moonlit
There she is, looking down at me
Down at us, gazing with a smile
Bright as always, clouds give way
Tonight so sharp, so clear and solid
Knows all her missions, never ever failed
The roar will rise to kill in the name...
How can they "forget" and never regret?
Not taking their chances and heal?
It's awful and true, this manic award
Blowing their souls to pieces for Him
You're going down and that is the end
No heroes left but fallen men
She catches it all so gently with a shine
They're on their thrones, looking down at us
With hate and loss the arm remains
So unfairly in their misery
How can they go on and never look back?
When will they accept and give in?
All over the fear comes closer to us
The stars will shine beyond the end
How can they "forget" and never look back?
When will they accept and give in?
All over the fear comes closer to us
The stars will shine beyond the end.
3. Going North
He's heading north
WIth silent shout
And quiet reverence
The wish to be granted
He's come to catch
His midnight sun
A star to wish upon
Bleached in northern lights
It's cold, he's told its beauty was irresistible
He's brave; he's safe in this land of his dreams
The moon will rise to see him off
One day there will be time to put his mind to rest
He will find his cave
A shelter to keep them out
It's dark, the mark appears in the distance of his tired
eyes
The golden light hits his unconscious mind
It proves the goal is here for him
He has come too close
The end so fair and sparkling
Wind will blow his mind back to where it belongs
Time will change, and time will broaden his mind
Monuments of ancient beliefs are written in stone
Not fading to keep the word of faith.
4. Don't Believe A Word (Thin Lizzy Cover)
*Thin Lizzy's cover
Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you I'm in love with you
Don't believe me if I tell you
That I wrote this song for you
There just might be some other silly pretty girl
I'm singing to
Don't believe a word
For words are so easily spoken
And your heart is just like that promise
Made to be broken
Don't believe a word
'Cause words can tell lies
And lies are no comforting
When there's tears in your eyes
Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you
Don't believe a word.
5. ...And Then The World froze
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I just imagined all these things
Do you want to be here - with me?
Are you sorry you came?
All those times on the street
Why didn't you talk to me?
Don't be afraid - I had to escape
It was burning me up inside
Sun seams pale
The world froze
To echoes of strife
Storms embrace us
Walls are moaning
Let us avoid the edges of broken glass
Time standing still
The world froze
My story wrapped in cold cold rain drops collapsing on your soul
I'm freezing
Where is the love?
Do you see those floods - in my eyes?
Would you stand me up?
If I needed your strenght
Would your force teach me?
Don't get me wrong - I had to be strong
Sun seams pale
The world froze
To echoes of strife
Words are soaring
Thoughts are drifting
Let us avoid the edges of broken hearts
Blood running strong
To echoes of strife
The sun seams pale and lost in its cosmic chaos
And freezing
Where is the love?
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I just imagined all these things
Did you want to be here - with me?
Are you sorry you came?
All those times on the street
Why didn't you walk with me?
Don't be afraid - I had to escape.
6. The Final Rest
I am waiting, waiting for the words to come
Silence is taking, taking up the space and is for live
Naked skin wrapped in showers of silver beans
Sun's out defrosting years of clogged up strain
Two tied up souls inhaling
Searching for their own lived lives
Longing to flush upon its shore to come to final rest
Venomous clouds throw the sun into a shade
The drunken earth begs for her as the sky is missing its
moon
My world is shaking, breaking up the solid ground
Slowly I'm waking, waking up to see through years of pain
Drunken soul sinking, drowning in its misery
Clear eyes are watching, staring at the vast sun
Slow rivers of golden memories
Shivering down their broken spine
Longing to flush upon its shore to come to final rest
Venomous clouds throw the sun into a shade
The drunken earth begs for her as the sky
is missing its moon.
7. Deprivation
Strange faces
In a night time
Weird places
Desperately looking for an exit
Stripped naked
For a lifetime
Try to break it
Every night has its dawn
Bad vibrations
For the right time
Prevent destructions
Don’t you regret you ever closed your eyes?
You run in slow motion
Escape from its presence and strain
To be approaching to you
Closer and closer
Suddenly quite awake and soaking wet
In the dark you can see their eyes everywhere
Try to wake up
During night time
Impenetrable
Through the dark time
In need of sleeping
Depraved from your deep sleep
You run in slow motion
Escape from its presence and strain
To be approaching to you
Closer and closer
Suddenly quite awake and soaking wet
In the dark you can see their eyes everywhere.
8. Provenance Of Hate
To spectate your inferiority
What use are you to me
And your presence is passing me by
All the time
It's infesting me and I eliminate it
By offering to the wind
Unsuccessful in your attempt
To outshine my brilliant superiority
And I will paint your shadow red all over
With my spirit I enter you
What use are you to me
It's infesting me and I eliminate it all the time.
9. Dead End Poem
I close my eyes
As fire swept clean the earth
Nothing left to strangle
As the cords were torn from our hearts
As we emerged
From darker dungeons
Splendour of yellow bells
Espanded swollen eyes
No words were said
As fire swept clean the earth
Would the mothers be crying?
If they saw the torches in their hands
A kiss was places upon my check
And all colours came back
Melting in solid blue tunes.
