1. Between Bronze Walls
As poisoning light
Ignores my futile desire for sleep
I find myself surrounded by mirrors
Blinding me
With this abhorrent colour
With my abhorrent flesh
With their abhorrent grin
This must be the most raging maelstrom
The deepest climax
My saviour, my mere witness indeed
I perceive your presence
Yet, you cannot approach ...
This hell is mine
I shall die between bronze walls.
2. Skeleton Coast
Nocturnal skeleton coast
Where dead cattle is washed ashore
To molest the mind of this immaculate race
Oh man, ye high spirits have evoken
The extermination of all that has been
Will you pray when the storms come ?
3. Euphoria When The Bombs Fell
Then all danced, my heroine
Unaesthyetically
To the war opera
I was proud to start a killing spree
With you
We darkened the scenery
All the grief
All the tragedies of your horrible loss
Have been chanelled
Into an orgasmis carnage
As all collapsed
We died in murderous bliss.
4. God Sent No Sign
5. The Clockhand's Groaning Circles
Clutching a giant laance of brass
Within a storm
That rushes silently
Through a hallway of mirrors
Drafts and visions beform me
Poisoned air burns into wounds:
The missing entrails -
Left behind
When my waste
Was creeping to life -
Hurt and bleed
Festering from wounds
That time has torn
That brass feasts upon
... in a rhytm, in a melody ...
Destructive and discordant
And finally mute -
When the eyes awake
Behind the senile web ...
These trembling hands
Won't save my ears
From deafness
These crippled thoughts
Won't save my soul
From death.
6. Procession Of Pawns
7. Summer Decapitation Ritual
I marked place in medieval summer beat
A guillotine prepared for amusement of god and his crowd
Shouting thei annual menace
(Into) the cruel vacuum rapidly descending
Desiring death to anticipate the doom divine, the temptation, his triumph
Thus, as no martyr I burn (at) the cross
With lack of strength to climb out of te white abyss again
Behead me!
For at the deptgs of this spiral
Even death cannot disburden me of life.
8. Cellartunes
9. Unlock The Shrine
How horrible your face has become within this prison
I smell your steps on the wooden floor again
So desperate to keep them silent ... you are mine
With all your masochistic desire
Invoke and fight me again
Saw your suicidal seed
Inhale your schizophrenia
Suffer from your faded mind
Unlock the shrine
Release me
Will I kill us ?
(Will you kill us ?)
Will I release us ?
(Will you release us ?)
As salt runs into your wounds
You lose your sight and clench your fists
You mourn at the brought of your heart
The stench of urine and mould
You will crawl before me on this wooden floor
Let the splinters cout you
And free the mass that binds us
You will drivel and howl at this merciless rain ...
These doors will close for you again.
10. Subterranean Homicide Lamentation
11. The Mine
Until these tunnels
Shall become our grave
We dwell with the poets
The eerie echoes
Of shameful choirs
Howl deep within here
Sounds of harm
Frome where the stillborn graze
Standing armed without a strategy
In a war
That never should have been declared
Eyes adapted to perpetual dawn
The trembling march of the offensive pack
With the bark of the hounds
Our final rhyme shall be composed
We await this, our time
When the foul screams of agony
Will sound through the mine.
12. White Abyss
