1. The Gate
2. Overlord
3. First Steep
You said: "I will just try it,
This one and only time"
but this step will be the first
but not the only one
on the way to your
self-destruction.
You said: "I want once more,
this one and only time".
You want to come back
to the world
of your hallucination.
You gradually lose in the
swamp...
...of your dependence.
You promised: "Never more"
but hunger is much more stronger.
There is a voice that tells you:
"It was great,
try it once more".
That is your key
to the doors of oblivion.
Drugs are no fun.
They're game where there's
no winners.
All cards are the same
so the end is the same:
Death!
You've got to stop it!
4. Strange Cities
There are thousands
of them in the world.
Some small
and inostensible,
other huge and famous.
Strange cities
for which everyone
of us is bound
someday all will get there.
Nobody can escape this.
Justice and peace
lives there.
No one lords
it over everyone
and though man
is of ten there.
He is not able
to change anything.
They have gone
but still they are here.
No one can disturb
their serenity
and silence.
Strange inhabitants,
strange cities,
land of memories,
signs of time.
When night appears here
tiny glimmers in places
light up deserted alleys
which no one treads
because nobody can cease
his resting in peace.
No matter how badly
he would like to.
But the bay will come
when cities revive.
The crowd will march of
but not all in one direction,
some with joy - others
with hanged heads.
So think, which side
you will
make your way when
"strange cities" awake.
It's only up to you.
Justice and peace
lives there.
No one lords
it over everyone
and though man
is of ten there.
He is not able
to change anything.
They have gone
but still they are here.
No one can disturb
their serenity
and silence.
Strange inhabitants,
strange cities,
land of memories,
Strange cities
waiting for the sign.
5. Fallen World
Nonsensical wars
and armaments,
millions of people
dying of starvation,
chemical and radioactive waste,
polluted seas and mountains
of excrements,
human organs trade,
drugs, prostitution
and alcoholism,
political bribery,
absolute moral debasement.
Here is our reality,
our existence
condemned to death
in this fallen world.
...and they say:
"We are homo sapiens".
So where is our wisdom?
Why in lifetime we dig our grave?
Why me make
our beautiful Eden
the fetid bog?
Dip in its vortex
we don't see
the light of the day.
If we want to see it
we must rise to the surface.
Without hearts,
without brains,
without souls
and conscience.
The most accurate
statue of a man,
the masterpiece
of a likeness sculpture
give me a tibia
and let me to play
on this immaculate white,
rinded to clean flute,
let me to play
with the gaily gloomed
shiver.
Let me rise
over your dead world,
let me to rise
and fall.
6. Looking in Her eyes
