1. Break the Seal

The past is deleted.
What�s left are my memories. They threaten to vanish more and more before being told for the first time.
So I will try to escape out of my MENTAL RESERVATION to record what happened.
We lived in peace �till the day the earth burst open and a dark appearing creature gave a crystal-key to a little boy called Boris Jay. Boris was taught by the creature how to use the key and�

�BREAK THE SEAL 5.26 (Julius/L.Szpigiel, D.Trobok)
It�s the hour, the cypher for rebirth
A poisoned arrow is darted
Liberation, one hope against the death
Striving for help, but the faction�s started
The screams of pain, -struggling in vain
To terminate over again

Look, man, how it�s growing, this child
The chosen one
Listen, a raven cawing
Run wild, you time has come

Here, take the key
Open the gates of hell - Break the Seal
Fear, grant it, train people�s mind
You�ll make it real

Listen, how it�s talking
Talk wild, going insane
Brave child, just keep on walking
You, child, who deal with the pain

Here, take the key
Open the gates of hell - Break the Seal
Fear, grant it, train people�s mind
You�ll make it real

Watch the red sunrise as the ground melts down
The final scene closely
See the final act more explicitly
Wait for the curtain to fall then follow it
To the rise

Read all the signs, trodden down the trails
The cryptograms of destruction
Last aggression this time unveils
On your way you got no obstructions

The screams of pain - struggling in vain
To terminate over again

Look, man, how it�s growing, your child
The chosen one
Listen, a raven cawing
Manchild, the time has come

Here, take the key
Open the gates of hell - Break the Seal
Fear, grant it, train people�s mind
You�ll make it real




2. Upright Liar

Equipped with the instruments of evil and an enormous increase of power, Boris returned as a young man from the eternal fire.
His political ambitions were immense. I listened to his famous speech he held in front of thousands of people on PLAZA DE PAX. I didn�t want to believe what my eyes and my ears had to endure. People were celebrating the...

...UPRIGHT LIAR 7.33 (Julius, Szpigiel, T.Sopha/Julius)
Human genius rules the world
Explores the depth and height
Enables us to use the word
To give us peace of mind

I�ll need all strength, I�ll fight against the demon
Who�s leading us to deep disastrous downs
Dressed in white his lips make folks believe him
He�s the man to choose again to wear the
nation�s crown

At any time, at any place
Old spirits with old thoughts
Unstable crowd is mesmerized
Salutes an Upright Liar
Arms in motion
Liar, and endless urge

Like a number on the tumbling dice
Not aware of where you�ll lie
At the end you�ll pay the highest price
Boundless blame will bare your name

Too many brains are stormed, their hearts are burning
Mind surrenders, passion strikes the truth
Words are sweet as honey: Eat by learning!
I�m a lonely soul of doubts fearful of the news

Mind pollution
Phrases squeeze my ears
Rage escorts my tears

At any time, at any place
Old spirits with old thoughts
Unstable crowd is mesmerized
Salutes an Upright Liar
Arms in motion
Liar, and endless urge

Like a number on the tumbling dice
Not aware of where you�ll lie
At the end you�ll pay the highest price
Boundless blame will bare your name

One�s tongue in one�s cheek
Praying words while the conscious sleeps
Mental dying all around
Bleating sheep the shepherd found

Big Brother loves his siblings without mercy
He pretends to keep them snug and safe
But once a week on dreadful bloody Thursday
T\You can hear the whip tormenting disobedient slaves

Mind pollution
Phrases sqeuuze my ears
Rage escorts my tears

At any time, at any place
Old spirits with old thoughts
Unstable crowd is mesmerized
Salutes an Upright Liar
Arms in motion
Liar, and endless urge

Like a number on the tumbling dice
Not aware of where you�ll lie
At the end you�ll pay the highest price
Boundless blame will bare your name




3. After the Storm

Boris made his way. Nothing seemed able to stop him. The situation became extreme. We were at war with 7 nations. Boris expanded his territory to the double. It was a nuclear inferno.
And there was an unbearable silence between two waves of a revenge - attack. Hopes were blown away and our sould had burned out. What was left...

...AFTER THE STORM 4.37 (Julius, Szpigiel/Trobok)
Can�t you hear, can�t you you hear our moans, our crying?
Dark is here, the mothers griev, the babies dying
Oh merciful Lord, forgive us we kept our heads in the sand
Not to blame, beyond is where we�ll aprehend

Out in the war it�s hard to keep faith
Knowing nobody�s giving us true hopes

After the Storm, we�d watch the new sunrise
But the sun is obscured in sight doesn�t heave
After the storm we�d wish him to arise
Again dispel the dark clouds, forgive and let live

So many questions not any answer has been told
Where should we go
How long we�ll stay blind in this crystal world?
Out in the war, how should we keep the faith
Knowing nothing gives us hope at all
And the blizzard going on. . . still. . .

After the Storm, we�d watch the new sunrise
But the sun is obscured in sight doesn�t heave
After the storm we�d wish him to arise
Again dispel the dark clouds, forgive and let live

"I know that nothing gives me a ray of hope
But true is my regret - the tears under the iron veil. . . ."

After the Storm, we�d watch the new sunrise
But the sun is obscured in sight doesn�t heave
After the storm we�d wish him to arise
Again dispel the dark clouds, forgive and let live




4. Your Infallible Smile

In these days of horror my vital energy disappeared. Even my sister, who gave me strength till then, was not able to beware myself from my surrender, anymore.
One day she left us to support a medical convoy on the way to zone - 66. Four days, she resisted the fallout. Then they brought her back.
Now, in my darkest days I try to remember our sunny days. Eileen, and I�ll never forget�

...YOUR INFALLIBLE SMILE 5.04 (Julius, Szpigiel/Julius)
We believed time would relieve all pain
Took an oath to honor faith for ever
A willow, witness of secrets when
Childhood�s dreams and wishes were told

Not wasting thoughts on sorrows
We shared a joyful time

Eileen, I wrestling for answers
All night the wind sighs goodbye
Eileen, there�s no more tomorrow
With your Infallible Smile
Nothing remains but my tears

You made me feel I could make a rainbow rise
At a cloud-darkened grey sky
You�ve been my laughter, my sadness, a tender touch
I perceive your still lasting scent

You walked the stairs to heaven
One way too much that day

Eileen, I wrestling for answers
All night the wind sighs goodbye
Eileen, there�s no more tomorrow
With your Infallible Smile
Nothing remains but my tears

You walked the stairs to heaven
One way too much that day

Eileen, I wrestling for answers
All night the wind sighs goodbye
Eileen, there�s no more tomorrow
With your Infallible Smile
Nothing remains but my tears




5. Conception of a Cure

The war lasted 2 years. After 3 years of regime Boris Jay was executed by his own generals before capitulation has proclaimed. 3 quarter of the planet was contaminated.
We had to live in the tunnels of subway systems. In our systems most of the population suffered from mental diseases caused by the war.
And there was a special machine which promised alleviation. Dubious help from the Mental Healer with his...

...CONCEPTION OF A CURE 5.05 (Julius, Szpigiel/Trobok)
Give me your hand
I�ll show you a different space
Break the barriers of time
I�ll be your guide through another dimension
Just free your mind

Get rid of bias
Have no doubt

I�mm called the Essential, the central computer
My name is Captain Voice
And I�m the healer - I feed your mind
I�m your healer

Get rid of bias, make you no doubt
Get rid of bias, time runs out

Mental healer
I�m the medical agent you should comply
Mental healer
The future, the past and the now won�t lie
The healer is operating inside of you

Give me your hand
I�ll expose you eternity
Nothing�s obstructing the way
Transcendence we�ll grasp I�ll do all
So you seel o.k.

Get rid of bias, make you no doubt
Get rid of bias, time runs out

Mental healer
I�m the medical agent you should comply
Mental healer
The future, the past and the now won�t lie
The healer is operating inside of you

Get rid of bias, make you no doubt
Get rid of bias, time runs out

Mental healer
I�m the medical agent you should comply
Mental healer
The future, the past and the now won�t lie
The healer is operating inside of you

Being in two minds. . . . time�s out!!!!




6. Into a Brave Man's Mind

I could resist his offer. But I tried a few other things instead. And one year later, when evacuation started, the trip to St. Clinton Island, 870 miles from home, was a double trip to STONEHENGE for me which should last for years. Although I tried to forget about the past with these things, 2 years later I found myself sitting on a hill of Clinton Island revealing my life. And I took a look...

...INTO A BRAVE MAN�S MIND 7.34 (Julius, Szpigiel/Julius)
Dawning at the eve
The sun melts the horizon
Softs winds on their way
To follow the dawn

Listening to the quiet
I hear an inner voice:
Remember to sieze the day
Wasteful passing by

Lost for ever far behind a curtain
A life as wasted as laughter - entailed tears

Mystery is calling
A secret world�s around
Mystic constellation of visions and sounds
I�m standing calm beside myself
Souldtaker

Speed me up! I�ll be a thunder
Take me high! Hallowed rise
Speed me up! Don�t mind tha manner
Take me high! Tonight

Magic signs of devil�s fateful nature
Don�t follow dumb and blind
Magic signs of someone who astrays ya
Make up your smokescreened mind

Poweblast injection
My veins are overloaded
Body�s last reaction
My mortal soul is sold
Skin as white as ivory
Soultaker

Brought me down! No I remember
Stole my soul! Snowy white
Brought me down! I�m a sinner
Stole my soul! That night

Magic signs of devil�s fateful nature
Don�t follow dumb and blind
Magic signs of someone who astrays ya
Make up your smokescreened mind

In nomine patris et spiritus sancti
In nomine petris et spiritus sancti

Nos non exiguum
Tempus habere
Ged multim perdere apparet

Ita est:
Non accipimus brevem
Vitam, sed facimus

Now I live where angels fly
And guardians keep my honour
I watch the earth with cleared-up eyes
And I have to stay for ever
Left a life behind down under
Wasn�t worth to live
Another chance, another time
I�d take it as a gift

Speed me up! I�ll be athunder
Take me high! Hallowed rise
Speed me up! Don�t mind tha manner
Take me high! Tonight

Magic signs of devil�s fateful nature
Don�t follow dumb and blind
Magic signs of someone who astrays ya
Make up your smokescreened mind




7. Out of Nowhere

Hundreds of thoughts were storming my brain. The night had already spread out its cloth above the landscape.
The village of Clinton Island with its approximately 200 inhabitants lay peaceful in the valley. Not giving a hint to the terrible past of its inhabitants.
Still I had not found a wife. And once again I was captured by thoughts from the hidden past right...

...OUT OF NOWHERE 4.59 (Julius, Szpigiel/Trobok)
Here I am at a standstill
No move I�m bidding time
Desultoriness in my proceedings
Caught be her spell I�m coming

Out of Nowhere
May wounds be sutured without scars?
Out of Nowhere
Hatred to nurture?! So damned you are!

Still we live in the world
We�re judged by the colour of skin
Plated with silver and gold
The radical changes in fits of spleen

And now more and more fer
With depressions backed
We�re crying but nobody hears
Coming out
Now I see I�m blind

Out of Nowhere
Isn�t the future termed by stars
Out of Nowhere
Hatred to nurture?! So damned we are!!!

I remember. . . Once I believed in God
But he left me in the lurch
Now I return. I built my own kingdom
I�ll make your desires burn
And all the nightmares come true

Sweet lullabies
Darling I�ve held you in my arms
Hear the truth, the freedom�s bell
See this lie through the eyes of my hell

Here I am at standstill, no move
Can�t you see I�m crying out
There�s no sun in the shadow of unrequited love
Caught in its spell I�m raving mad
Keep the silence, I�ll make it burn!

Out of Nowhere
May wounds be sutured without scars?
Out of Nowhere
Hatred to nurture?! So damned you are!

Out of Nowhere
Isn�t the future termed by stars
Out of Nowhere
Hatred to nurture?! So damned we are!!!




8. Nightmare

While years were passing by on the island a troop of children was growing up, bare of any experience of was and dictatorship.
All in all we lived in a peaceful and self-sufficient society. Meanwhile I had become president of our little nation. And Clinton Island was our little kingdom.
But on day all the children were spirit away. Dark clouds were hanging over above the volcano at the time and it might have been a sign of satanic mights.
And at one night during the rainy season some strange creatures creeped out of the volcano down to the village. Like paralyzed and under the influence of a strange might we all followed them silently to where they had come from, not knowing if that was just a terrible�

...NIGHTMARE 3.47 (Julius, Szpigiel/Julius)
Welcome to your joyful plotted nightmare
Yeah, this cute horror�trip was booked for you
Don�t dare to flee before this night
Has climbed its gorgeous peak
Enjoy the games of shadow�mights
The growth of Satan�s seed

Coroner�s dance
They�ve come to lead you to the dark
Coroner�s dance
Your life is at stake
No chance to awake
Out of your nightmare

One sperm caused your total incarnation
Millions let their life for you to live
Now tables turned the other way
Your body for a soul
Still caught in hell to be released
With your infernal fall

Coroner�s dance
They�ve come to lead you to the dark
Coroner�s dance
Your life is at stake
No chance to awake
Out of your nightmare

So every time you close your eyes
Beware to fall asleep
Cause creatures from the other side
They gratify their greed

Coroner�s dance
They�ve come to lead you to the dark
Coroner�s dance
Your life is at stake
No chance to awake
Out of your nightmare
1 and 2 we gonna come for you
3 and 4 we�re knocking at your door
5 and 6 take your crucifix
7 and 8 we appear at night
9 and 10 we gonna meet you then




9. Rubberman

But it was no dream. Deep inside the volcano a dreadful creature ruled over all other creatures. We were their slaves. Alo we had found the lost children there. They were kept in cages until we had to prepare their brains for meal for the creatures.
I remembered Boris Jay. There was not much difference between him and these creatures. In one way he was a braineater too.
One day I was chosen to follow a special ritual in the master�s cave. The master, looking like an awful rubber-monster, was incarnating one of us to his tool. It was Albert Twostone, who got the crystal-key this time and immediately he started to dance and sing to the drumming of the...

...RUBBERMAN 5.37 (Julius, Szpigiel, Sopha/Trobok)
Courses straight ahead
There�s nothing that can stop me now
Born again that�s how I feel I�m on the run
I ride the wind, the heights of the storm
I defy always changing form

Don�t worry, stay cool
There ain�t a rule

Rubberman
Body and Soul
Rubberman
Play a role
Rubberman
Set the spirit free
Rubberman
You and me
We are a perfect team

I�m one of those
Who can be down but stuck out
Be what you are
No matter what they say but : BE IT!

Don�t worry, stay cool
There ain�t a rule

Rubberman
Body and soul
Rubberman
Play a role
Rubberman
Set the spirit free
Rubberman
You and me
We are a perfect team

Courses straight ahead
There�s nothing that can stop me now
Born again that�s how I feel I�m on the run
I ride the wind, the heights of the storm
I defy always changing form


Don�t worry, stay cool
There ain�t a rule

Rubberman
Body and Soul
Rubberman
Play a role
Rubberman
Set the spirit free
Rubberman
You and me
We are a perfect team




10. Wrong Lane Society

I made my decision to let nothing undone to escape out of this hell. After several trials I reached the top of the volcano one day, leaving my people and some slaughtered creatures behind.
It took me 2 months until my float ran ashore at a stony coast. I had returned to civilization. Cities were rebuilt and the people had learned how to handle the raidoactive contamination.
The society did not change too much. Still there was poor and rich, the difference between the colors of skin and the money was ruling the world again, because living in the outlands was not possible.
I was one of ever million unemployed people in the city and the government had still no idea to solve this problem.
There was an explosive mood under the troops of unemployed people and most of them damned this�

...WRONG LANE SOCIETY 5.45 (Julius, Szpigiel, Sopha/Julius)
Spend my life in misery
And stand it going on
But recently I got this dream
Lasting all night long

Woke up to my damned disaster
Expected nothing new
But someone there�s been kidding me
He tidied up my room

No stink and no poisoned cockroach
No dust of ages
Either found my boots nor blue jeans
That�s why I tried to escape

Living on the wrong lane
Welcome to the ball of pride and glory
Living on the wrong lane
Take what the mob gives to you
The mob gives to you

Walking through my strange dream
People stared at him
At first I didn�t recognize
I showed my nude pin

I was called Mr. McDonald
Release from my own mess
Was treated like millionaires
When I reached downtown

Could but me some silken clothes
No need to pay cash
Was invited to Hilton Hotel
Changes I could not explain

Living on the wrong lane
Welcome to the ball of pride and glory
Living on the wrong lane
Take what the mob gives to you
The mob gives to you


Folks I�m gonna tell you honestly I hate this dream
Captured in a symphony of living easily
Enjoyed my life like it had been before I reached that realm
Boring situation if I�d become a rich fat man

No silken socks and no credit
No golden cages
Wanna live in my dirty chamber
Don�t care if life�s trash remains

Living in the wrong lane
"Fuck Off" to the ball of pride and glory
Living in the wrong lane
Give what the snob�s gossip needs




11. 20th Century Crusade

One year later I found a job at eddy�s chip-repair. The work was not bad and many people brought whole data-consoles to our service center. One day I recognized Albert Twostone on the screen of a data-station I was going to repair. Although I could not understand what he was talking there was no doubt that he was candidate of the next election for governor.
The new governor was Albert and within a period of 3 month our city lay under an embarge of all other cities. He brought on a crisis which was accompanied by his campaign to solve this problem with the weapon he had developed himself : the Quarks-Streamer.
It was a hot sunny day when I started the engine of my small jet-boat and Albert started his first Quark-Streamer to begin the last...

...20TH CENTURY CRUSADE 7.40 (Julius, Szpigiel/Julius, Szpigiel)
The orange is peeled, rapped are the brains
Hopes are all lost
Apocalyptic: "Live and let die"
Love�s dying first

Blessed is the power of death
The ultimate god and leader
Respectfully called: The Best
Ruling their mind�s fateful disease

Watch out - Lurking in the dark
Stay tuned - Set your controls and hark

Hell arised to demise its legacy
No prayer to pray
Heaven waits, hesitates, looks for a better deal
Johnny - boy, a shepherd boy, and the lamb
Marked off the way
But the beast from the east obviliating them now
Broke the seventh seal

Upcoming fears, horror of cries
Kicking your ass
Approximate lie, nipped at its rise
Don�t cause a mess

Seer, or thing of evil, where does my fortune lie?

Watch out - Lurking in the dark
Stay tuned - Set your controls and hark

Hell arised to demise its legacy
No prayer to pray
Heaven waits, hesitates, looks for a better deal
Johnny - boy, a shepherd boy, and the lamb
Marked off the way
But the beast from the east obviliating them now
Broke the seventh seal

Who made who
Who released the beast
Who breaks through
To fire first - Danger
Born just to be lost

Cursing with joy spit out of hell
Aggression and hate
Satanic forces are tolling the bells
Sealed is the fate

Blessed is the power of death
The ultimate god and leader
Respectfully called: The Best
Ruling their mind�s fateful disease

Watch out - Lurking in the dark
Stay tuned - Set your controls and hark

Hell arised to demise its legacy
No prayer to pray
Heaven waits, hesitates, looks for a better deal
Johnny - boy, a shepherd boy, and the lamb
Marked off the way
But the beast from the east obvilating them now
Broke the seventh seal


There is not much to tell anymore. Clinton Island lies under a dense stratum of clouds which did not change for month now. Down from the cliff I watch the ocean. More or less hopeful to see survivours one day. And at some days it seems to me that God�s face breaks through the stratum of clouds and a tear sliding on his cheek sets out to fill the ocean.
