1. Selfless
The bars within your mind
and you learn the fear
windows sealed with tragedy
keep the daylight out
and me further from you
free your mind
and release the bird that once was free and beautiful
open your eyes
nothing here to hurt you
free my mind
and bring the salvation in the shape of life
just please don't give it up
too much to give, and even more to get
were the flowers too beautiful
for you to touch them or even look?
and did the sun rise too early?
painting the sky dark, deep red
red is my dawn
and when the voices are getting louder
I can hardly hear you breathing
was it this world that made you
so fragile and empty inside?
such a beautiful mind
so pure, you couldn't take it
I will hold my breath and sky is further than ever
just don't give up
2. Fragrance
hear the voices
bodies' noises
lovers' choices
echos of nothing, intruders
significant silence
distinct in the quiet world
we set sails
on windless nights
when the air is pregnant
with a fragrance of madness
the air here is still
the pressure on time increasing
all this weighs down on us
clouds woven of nothing
yet with threat and weight they float about
trapped automata
and an instant has expired
and the silence is disturbed
and I feel life emerge, immense
slowly raindrops falling pale of winter
painted
painted green
dream tonight a thousand dreams
of a dance on moonbeams
a thousand raindrops falling
break the surface of the "real"
dissolved in the texture
and the surface never heals
3. Neuropath
A rise without me
coming on in some faces
some hearts feed together
broken bones will never heal
lost blood is lost in fever
it could've been worse
all the lungs suffer
breathing
eating
sleeping
feeling
all is waste, waste of air
all is waste, waste of food
all is waste, waste of illusion
all is waste, waste of diffusion
all is waste, waste of despair
all is waste, waste we share
all is waste, waste of words
all is waste, waste for herds
there was someone here
in the shadows
they wouldn't believe
it ate into my thighs
who drinks now from my eyes
there is always someone here
to take always someone too weak
I am not asking
disappointment is acceptance

5. Glass-Cutter's Dream
sharp being
a clear lookin´-glass
warped existence in fables
sounds and sights
through mist upon self
a dinner is set on the table
is there someone here then?
where is this, when?
Lost in words tongue's not sound
this my house yours to keep
the walls are too deep
death's but a surface sleep
blunt teeth
glass-cutter's dream
wrapped a paper 'round the garden
spilt voices
through smoke and steam
dinner still set on the table
is there someone here, now?
when is now, how?
lost in taste throat does so well
swollen meanless anger
the windows too steep
death's but a surface sleep
sat watching
into clear looking-glass
in warped existence through fables
sounds and sights
through smoke and steam
the dinner got cold on the table
inside this empty meaning lost
glass-cutter's dream now found
through here smoke and steam
death's but a surface sleep
