1. My Endtime
Split by the forever
The Dance is between in nowhere
An essence of nothing
god has broken my wings
And set me to drift
2. Days of Prayer
Standing before the door of the one I call god
My entrance has been denied - forever lost
Days of prayer are words wasted on the wind
If there is to be an answer then give these talons a grasp to hold
Burning sun of hope
A blackened path in my way
Trees of fruitless seed are soon cast away
Hearing the wind whisper of souls
Why must I stand amongst the void
3. Believe
In this land of the pious
Deceiving one of small mind
Controlled as if - as if the devils tools
I see a horizon - the armies align
Prey upon the weak - twisting their feeble minds
Riding down - a sickend sort takes the reigns and dominates
Pray to your hands for salvation
bend your cross to fit your ways
We are a species beaten by ignorance
Misguided fools lost in a shell
An open eye soon extinguished
the blind lead the blind
as we chase our death
I believe - in only myself/the dark shall grow/in the end
4. Never
Living in a pretend world of happiness
My painted face melts as I recede
Into my own reality - into my hole
The fluid of my existence
Wishing that the pretense would never end
As I soak in rivers opaque
My mind drinks the fluid - it drinks of its thirst
The fluid of my existence
5. Idis
Watching eyes trough clouded veils
Ancestral souls shape the winds
Present feeds upon the past
Our sanguine ties that bind
Writing on the page of fate
I accept the will maternal
Hear the gift in the cry of the child
Or the bale from blackend wings
Cursed lines and candles flame
Killed with breath from a kiss
Cradle a chosen life
The vine of the mother
Wrapped in woman's weave
Armed in Gossamer
Strangled with mothers hair
Heirs blood never flows
Chains of blood
Bind women's wrath
Or kiss from above
The lady past
6. Personal God
A mental aberration
thrust in to such
a perfect world
I am wrong
you are right
what can I do - to please
I could never see with your eyes
This is the season
of a falling moon
Torn from above
I could never see with your eyes
I could never think with your mind
Visions destroyed
I bow before
MY PERSONAL GOD
7. Mental Pictures
Pulled to the twisted spiral stairs
you falling down
The promise of the treasure bright in our eyes
Our movement sure
We fool ourselves
Taken like chattle in the gates of their keep
Shrouded in ignorance we bow at their feet
Sacrificing the world outside
to suffer mental pictures in my mind
To drown in delusions
Pulled to the twisted spiral stairs
you falling down
Unpainted pictures trick the blind to see
Our thoughts clear
We fool ourselves
8. Insanity's Circles
Insanity's circles continue their motion
Whispers of words fall to the floor
mental battles fought and won again
Tripping through haze - Hate and anger revel
the words within my mind sing songs of praise
Melodies of unknown
A dying world of life engulfed upon itself
Visions marred by thoughts - Setting ourselves on
Indulging myself in dreams of never realities
Groping for meaning - We eventually fall
Tomorrow is always there
Hopes for a new day we enlighten our souls
As we bleed ourselves - We spawn rivers of doubt
Insanity has thin walls
9. The Fall
Father said unto his son
let it be written and let it be done
Father said unto his son
close the door and let it be done
Fly away my precious child
fly into the sun
Into darkness dark decay
forever will be done
10. Lament
A world turning
in opposite direction
bells toll of my lament
skies not blue
Rain on the path
I wander
empty and alone
never looking up
Mo not sad - just hollow
each breath gone
expelling life from myself
closer to ash
Speak to me of beauty
- Maneuver with grace
Enter my thoughts with light
- Maneuver with grace
Waking from nightmares
a life of repeat
we continue on
straight to the end
And all I need
- is what I need
- to breath of my Soul
11. Empty Faith
And by the hands of my god I wash myself clean
With the rivers below
That flow into my mind
Falling through the abyss of life
The shadow that is mine engulfs
Pulling at - Bending - My realization
(No this cannot be)
(No this should not be)
Looking forward I see the nothingness that approaches
Perhaps I'll embrace the intangible
(Spinning a web around your world)
12. Spiral Descent
Eating from the sacrificial - tainted bowl
Ripping out the roots our our conciousness
We all go blind
Into the void
By the hands of - doom
Pushed to the - wall
Fear the inescapable - you all will fall
No one is spared - you all will crawl
Burning out from the rhetoric - holy words
We sell our souls
13. Heaven and Hell (Black Sabbath cover)
Sing me a song, you're a singer
do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
The Devil is never a maker
the less that you give, you're a taker
So it's on and on and on, it's Heaven and Hell, oh well
The lover of life's not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
the sooner you'll know that you're dreaming
So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell
I can tell, fool, fool!
Well if it seems to be real, it's illusion
for every moment of truth, there's confusion in life
Love can be seen as the answer, but nobody bleeds for the dancer
and it's on and on, on and on and on....
They say that life's a carousel
Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well
The world is full of Kings and Queens
who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
It's Heaven and Hell, oh well
And they'll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
you get to keep the gold that falls
It's Heaven and Hell, oh no!
Fool, fool!
You've got to bleed for the dancer!
Fool, fool!
Look for the answer!
Fool, fool, fool!
