1. Exceed the Feeling of Nothing
I can't tell you how long I have been waiting
for
The occurrences that initiate the triggering of events
I cannot express
the pain I've felt in search for more
Give me a sign, a hint, a map, a
location to descent
Now that I can begin the journey to the starting
place
Orientation is scrambled by sudden changes around me
Let senses of
purpose acknowledge and arise me from the maze
I've found my sight again...
but still I cannot see what I cannot be
No sight, no sound, no smell, no
touch
No sense or thought, no nothing much
No fate, no hate, no right, no
wrong
No-one for so long
Reach the ultimate state of nothingness to escape
this entrapment so everlasting
I can only define this hell to be a loophole
that appears to be never-ending
Ever more steeper
Time and meaning fade
before my eyes
I'm falling deeper
Must reach the bottom before I
arise
Turning the corner
Just to bump into another restriction
Seeking the
border
A connection parallel to the affliction
No sight, no sound, no
smell, no touch
No sense or thought, no nothing much
No fate, no hate, no
right, no wrong
Nothing for so long
Accept the torture
My pain is building
until it implodes
I can no longer endure
Still no mercy but time alone
2. The Apocalypse Foretold
Breeding hate from violence
Feeding
images of vulgar display
Immoral principles sample
The image of a world in
decay
Now hate grows stronger
Infiltrates the human ways
The will to master
and overpower
In reality this feeling stays
Can't abort the negative
This
is embedded in your mind
Cannot be representative
You are of an altered
kind
Soon this womb of frustration and agony
Will disappear in a void of
blackness
Consumed by primordial values
Where awareness is increased
again
Shut out these emotions
Enjoy the ride to eternal blackness
Sit back
and witness
As altered beings execute the apocalypse foretold
You will
execute...
The apocalypse foretold
Fear not if the image is too clear
You
must have no fear
No one is intangible
Or held responsible
Or can deny the
inevitable
Generations of consolidating inbreeds
See the darkness now clear
ahead in space
In time the truth is revealed
When the paradox becomes the
vortex
That swallows the remains of their unbound fate
3. The Spiralling Path
The distorted vision of man
The total waste of life
Trying as hard as
you can
In desperation you strife
You struggle for the upper hand
You stick
your head in the sand
You ignore the questions that arise
You face your own
pitiful demise
You fight to keep your path clean
You hide behind the faith
that remains
You decline the rules to disappear
You resist to face your own
fears (2x)
Dark clouds fade up above
The stench now becomes
thick
Constantly denied by love
The soul grows wary and sick
You stop
becoming something else
You no longer have these desires you felt
Your
movement decreases to a minimum
You become stuck and have no
momentum
Encourage the mind to create
A non-existent kind of fate
Sickness
is an exhausting illness
That cannot be healed by nothingness
The distorted
vision of man
The total waste of life
Trying as hard as you can
In
desperation you strife
The weakened vision of man
The total waste of
life
Searching as long as you can
Knowing you'll never arrive
Knowing
you'll never arrive
4. Moral Perception
It just
keeps on raining insults
much more than I can bare
I keep getting into
conflicts
Is it caused by myself?
Have I changed so much
that the others
can't keep up?
Or has my world been standing still?
Is there something to
compare with?
Information is limited
Am I asking the wrong
questions?
Loyalty I don't feel
Has the situation become that
bad?
Friendship still has the same meaning.
Or has it? I still feel
completely unchanged.
Listen to yourself... really listen
You won't like
what you'll hear.
I'd rather be self occupied
than worry about what the
outside world perceives
I like to have a moral ground
but not if my
surroundings ignore the facts
Has my judgement grown so much worse?
Has
anger and disappointment replaced
this bitter angst I once felt?
At least
I'm no longer afraid to loose
what I once held so dear.
Listen to
yourself... really listen
You won't like what you'll hear.
Projection of
self-image... on other people
This is the only way to learn the truth
Moral
Perception
I'd rather be self occupied
than worry about what the outside
world perceives
If I cannot live up to my own standards
How can I expect
someone else to?
I cannot, therefore I must abort and reject
Destroy the
chains that hold me back and reach for the sky.
5. Digging Upwards
Dig in the ground
Let a
frightful sound
Tear up your wounds
Create more room
Build a foundation
Seek
a relation
Isolate the pain
And the more you feel
Excruciating torment
The
clearer the vision
The better scars will heal
Desperation, an incentive
Do
not let fear be an issue
Lead yourself to the decisions at hand
Do not let
fear be an issue
Lead yourself to the temptations at hand
Opening up to
reason now
The souls reflection appears
It glimpses up out of the dark
To
once again infect my mind
This stronghold of conception
Takes form in a
symbolising shape
The evil mockery of my reasoning
Casts a shadow dark and
grim
Upon my kingdom, my domain
Reinforce the walls, man the stockade
Don't
let yourself be led astray
Take off the crown and lead the way
Separation
from the mind
Exclusion from the soul
Deteriorate these boundaries
Seek
goals that make you whole
I feel so released now
my world shakes and
trembles
I see and accept the truth now
as my walls fall down and
crumble
6. Shattered Incomplete
Thought patterns
governed by complex mind
control
Disturbing visions
Sub-consciously rejected by my soul
I accept, I
obey, I cannot see past the suffering
I deny, I reject, I refuse to open my
mind
Face... where ever your thoughts may lead you
Search... for the
answers within yourself
Never-ending battle
Is fought on and on
Battlefield
turned useless
Stamina fades in time
Attempting to recover
I look myself in
the eye
Miserable images and
Experiences of failure
Slowly pass me
by
Reach... to find the incomprehensible
Release... before attempting to
confront
Never-ending battle
Is fought on and on
Battlefield turned
useless
Stamina fades in time
Awakened state of emergency
Is called upon my
self-reflection
Confronted by sub-conscious thoughts
I'm devastated beyond
recognition
Disturbed and detached
So restricted by
confliction
Deconstructed and decompiled
Never ever to be
Assembled
again
Attempting to recover
I look myself in the eye
Miserable images
and
Experiences of failure
Slowly pass by my
Face... where ever your
thoughts may lead you
Search... for the answers within yourself
Reach... to
find the incomprehensible
Release... before attempting to
confront
Shattered and incomplete
Control has been lost for good
The will
must admit defeat
Realise what it never could
