ONE WISH
I wish to begin with a kissand find the evergrey
to flood, to fill one more delusion
that satisfies my woes…
One dream, one breath,
One more flat line to pace,
Another night I tolerate
The filthy shit that seems to be my face.
Another night goes by…
I need a sound,
I need a voice that speaks my name,
A different eye to recognize
The tortured fiend that used to be myself.
Beneath my secret smile,
I lick my curse.
Another fading light,
Another night.
I wish, to become the machine I so despise
and feast on cries,
To dissolve and fly
and drown inside my ugly lies…
I wish to sleep,
I wish to smile,
Deep down inside
I wish to covet my denial.
It’s growing darker with each breath
MY EYES
Fireflies navigate me,You did enough to break me,
Headstones indicate the path I have to take…
Never have I failed to endure my torment,
Never have I stained my prideless eye,
With this disgusting pointless fiction you call cry…
I close my eyes and sleep on my own,
I close my eyes and dream on my own,
I look inside and feel there’s nothing left to heal,
I close my eyes and die on my own.
Break,
I break in silence…
Fall,
I fear to breathe…
200.000 cuts that left me bleeding,
No one’s here to hear me screaming…
Hours burn through,
My eyes feel so demeaning,
Can I infect you to receive another lie?
Better to forget any goddamn feeling,
Better to succumb in a restless feeding,
To eat my prospects and my fantasies away…
FACES DOWN
Faces down,I greet you with another fall.
Faces down,
Just breathe without a sound.
Touch me merrily,
Strike me gently,
Cuddle me hard again,
For I am he who grants you life…
Burn, Dark, Beat me gently,
Frown, Drown, Hold me down,
You’re blessed to forget.
Faces down,
So scared to look around,
Lonely shades of grey,
I think I’m one of them…
Faces down,
So scared to look around,
Lonely shades of grey,
>We breathe without a sound…
Faces down,
I’m in need of another scar.
Faces down,
So scared to breathe aloud…
Whisper bluntly,
Pry about me,
Lick my pride again,
For I am he who brings you light…
Flee, Scared,
One more denial,
Scorn me, Mock me,
Hold me down,
You’re blessed to forget.
Mr GRAY
Alone, again…My only friend and I
Alone, once more
Licking the mirror…
Give me another smile,
I love to look inside your eyes,
Give me another touch,
My god I feel so cold…
I am cold fever
I am Judas’s tainted lips
I am everything, I am anything
I am tears of grief that slowly drip
I can’t recall
How many nights I’ve spent
Alone, once more
My self infection…
3rd SCREAM
Thrice held another scream,In time to kill my dream
Down lies, the cosmic fiend,
I think it has my face…
Here comes, the jester dance,
A blur inside my eyes
3rd scream, deliver me,
I know he has my face…
And the screams in your dreams
Are growing louder than hell,
The pain arrives, you smell the fear inside you.
And the screams in your dreams
Are growing louder than hell,
Inside the silent place you’ve always been.
Scream one, delirium,
The voices hunt me down
Chimera, seducing bane,
“I want to know your sins…”
Sneak inside the nightmare,
1.000 deaths to come
Just one more, creeping in, drilling on, burning through,
“Tell me your fucking sins…”
Scream two, oblivion scars,
That burn beneath the stars
Medusa limbs invade me,
I think she has my face…
Failing light, the traitor weaves,
Beholder of my sins
3rd scream, deliver me,
I know he has my face…
DEEP DOWN
Smeared edge of a knife that went all the way,But found no heart left.
Deep down inside,
You bite your tongue to feel alive…
Still crawling, still drowning,
You find no breath inside you,
Still freezing, still bleeding
And still you wonder why…
Deep down inside,
You’re emptier still…
Deep down inside,
You’re on your own…
Deep down inside,
Where your beasts reside…
Deep down inside,
You are alone…
Void eyes that stare at your empty shell,
But see no meaning.
Deep down inside,
You find no way to feel alive…
Still crawling, still drowning,
Still sucking pride and fraud.
Still freezing, still bleeding
And there’s no wonder why…
FACADES
Your sick remains,The scourge of all her promises,
Shattered debris,
Inflict another wound…
Before you know,
You drink the poison of your tongue,
Another war,
Another absolution…
Unseen, unheard,
You swept the smile of your facade.
Concealed, lifebled,
You counted countless pieces…
Familiar sounds,
You turn to look around you,
Thorns in your side,
The canvas waits the final touch
Before you know,
You drink the poison of your tongue,
Another war,
Another absolution…
BLOOD BENEATH YOUR WINGS
Far cries, far sighs,The wind that slowly burns your back
Thick lies, demise,
The emptiness of slain goodbyes.
Your flesh, denies,
Another blow that brings you down,
Numb eyes, surprise,
The lady’s hand upon you.
As you see the blood beneath your wings
Far cries, far sighs,
Wild acid curses drill your mind,
Thick lies, crawl deep,
In your intoxicated sleep.
Swift glance, inside,
The shallow graveland of your past,
Dead eyes, surprise,
The lady’s hand upon you.
P.S.
Vain, it’s all I see…You see the lights and smile
And sweep the stains of me… Veiled, put out of sight…
So no one sees my smile
I sheathe my blood red fangs…
The wishes that you hoped to draw me near,
Are nothing but another kind of suicide,
The final act you’ve always yearned to see,
It’s me, it’s me…
For all the times your torrents brought me down,
For all the priceless moments that we used to share,
For all the things you knew I couldn’t bear,
Please die – goodbye…
Please let me spoil
Let me degenerate
Wipe out the stars above
I am the spiteful core…
Please let me spoil
Let me degenerate
Entwine your heart within
Let’s drink another sin…
The Light
Sweating blood and gulping tears.
It’s growing colder.
Turned out the light.
God you bastard.
And I am still right here,
with my razortongued smile.
And I am still right here,
Torching my funeral pile
I feel it…
Morning breeze and autumn ashes.
The stench of fear and I…
We stand in final peace.
I wished for some redemption,
Weaving a breathless night.
No blissful dawn came for me.
No sign of splendid light.
And I am still right here,
with my razortongued smile.
I’m still right here,
Breathing my dear denial.
I feel it…
Morning breeze and autumn ashes.
My precious fear and I…
Becoming the abyss.
Searching for the light…
A sign of splendid light…
So rape me, erase me,
There’s still nowhere to run.
Obliterate, eradicate
Bring it on to the prodigal son.
So rape me, erase me,
My winter never knows decay.
Obliterate, eradicate
I’ll live to fight another day.
Promises
Darkness rules this empty space.
I’m just a king of mist.
Scorn fed cold embrace.
“Can you remember me?”
Darkness rules this dreadful place.
I’m just the filthy beast.
One man bereft of grace
that wields the dagger of deceit…
“You know you have seen me before.”
She held her breath and stood in silence…
“You know you have seen me before.”
“I promise I will never let you go…”
More screaming and blood on the floor,
I will not shed another tear.
More screaming and blood on the floor,
“I will be back my dear…”
If you really think this is the right ending,
I will let you close the book.
But, you’ll never know what really happens.
Dead again, Gone again,
Is this worth fighting for?
Born again, Found again,
The bloodstains on the floor…
1000 years of murder,
Damnation always wins.
1000 years of murder,
Repenting for my sins.
“You know you have seen me before.”
She took a step and lived the lie…
“You know you have seen me before.”
“I promise you nothing… Goodbye.”
The maker's Way
Drop by drop,
I wish you could have seen me smiling,
As if I really cared for anything like you…
Hours fly by,
I really wish you could be mine.
Notes form chords,
I’m draining out the best of you…
Now stand still
And give me your last drop…
This is the maker’s way
You’ll soon be mine
This is the maker’s way
You’re mine…
Drop by drop,
I wish you could have seen me smiling,
It’s been a pleasure but I’ve got to move along…
Tic-tac-toe,
I want to play a little game with you,
Notes form chords,
I’ve lived in shadows for so long…
Now stand still.
And give me your last drop…
Night In Gale
Another crack of light,
The misty shore’s so far away.
Another lightning flash,
Shows me the way.
Another crack of light,
The water’s dark and freezing.
Her arms around me, griping tight.
Hold on to me my love!
The shipwreck miles behind,
Exhaustion breaks into my mind,
The pouring rain is beating hard,
Give me your hand…
The sound of angel glee,
The voice of heaven mocking me,
The apparition blinds my sight,
All dressed in moonlight.
So hard to breathe,
So hard to stay awake,
A still and silent prayer
For some spark to lead our way.
Cold fingers try to warm you,
It’s getting hard to hold you.
We savor every moment as this nightmare flows on.
Devoid of human flesh,
The lady’s mouth lays silent,
She stared at me with cinder eyes,
Perhaps the devil in disguise?
To feel her golden hair,
To taste her kiss would be a dream.
She is a form of childhood whim.
Oh, how I love thee….
The tender crack of dawn,
The morning finds us on the shore
I turn my head, I’m not alone,
My love’s asleep…
I touched her wounded knee,
I felt her pulse so silent.
She felt so cold, I kissed her head,
and she was laying dead…
Hourglass
Tainted seed, I’m chocking,
I won’t be coming home.
Mother! I’m all alone,
A skin that’s burning cold…
Chainsaw pride, I’m smiling,
I know you love to hate me.
Stained, I’ve lived in shame,
Watching the stars portray my name.
Can you see?
Feel this?
Can you understand me?
Deceitful and faithless,
A servant of the lie,
I am the hourglass eye.
My hell, I’ve found you!
There’s no one at the door.
Mother! I’m all alone.
I won’t be coming home.
Evergreen
Wonder why the room grows darker?
Why the years have passed you by…
Searching far too deep,
You’ve known the truth all along.
Now it’s time to sleep,
Listening to the same old song.
Take a look at what you’ve done,
And fall on your knees,
Your cries are never enough.
Don’t ask for release.
Scratching the walls in anxious desire,
Hatred so vengeful, baptized in fire,
Silent amends won’t pardon your crime,
The scars on your skin, keep marking the time.
The Well
Silence falls; I’ve known it all along,
Inside my burial chamber,
This is where I belong.
This is my last surrender.
My voices speak no more,
No more pathetic guilt and shame,
No conscience to abhor,
I chose to end the twisted game.
I’m tumbling down the well again,
Let them come.
Walking down my mind,
My sins are standing in line.
Greeting me gently with a smile.
They take me by surprise,
I speak but they won’t answer,
One thousand lifeless eyes.
Like black disease and cancer.
They’re coming, gleaming blades,
Shrilling and laughing and pounding my mind, feeding my wings to the flames.
My brood of cursed shades.
I’ve always liked their twisted games.
Cleaning my image, devouring my past
Silently searching for peace in the dust,
Caressing my ego, reviving my skin,
I’m gladly committing another dark sin.
And I’m shifting away.
Stormcrows
Rain and still you’re staring at me,
Frozen cold fingers that shiver,
Rain and still you’re smiling at me,
Another cold night by the river…
Kneel down and beg for release,
Frozen cold raindrops and tears,
Broken and shattered I touch the abyss,
Awaiting her tender and terminal kiss…
Stormcrows dividing my will,
A liquidskinned mistress and mother,
Stormcrows in for the kill,
The final embrace of a lover…
Tell me, what do you see in here?
Are you really afraid?
Tell me, why are you in here?
Would you rather be someone else right now?
Swarm in…
I feel it…
Black wings in a soundless beating thrill…
Elation,
Temptation,
Feeding down upon my will…
My god forgive me,
I am a sinner in this massive loss euphoria,
God please forgive me,
Are you happy now you son of a bitch?
Stormcrows…
Cellar Door
“My eye is fixed upon you
My voice will guide you through.
Open your mouth to madness”.
Only once I heard his name.
He was crying through the cellar door.
Four nights, disgusting shame.
You know I’m not the one to blame.
Open your mouth to madness.
Open your mouth to madness.
My eye is fixed upon you
My voice will guide you through.
Never heard something like this before.
As he was crying through the cellar door.
Voices from below,
Begging for a tender touch.
Crying in the candle light,
What’s going on inside?
Shadows strike you blind.
Smile and grant a tender touch.
Messing with your mind.
Breathe and dig your hands inside.
Breathe…
Silence
Sun down, the beauty of crimson shades,
Sun down, the light of your precious moon,
Night falls, the sound of your breathing fades.
It will all be over…
It starts, the tremor so warm and kind,
It stirs beneath our deformed remains,
One small and beautiful glance behind,
Then, Darkness, to thy work…
Sun down, farewells to the crimson shades,
We carve the light of our precious moon
Night falls, the sound of our breathing fades.
It will all be over soon.
Sun down, let it flood and set a blister there.
Have you eyes? Have you hands to seize damnation?
Confess yourself to heaven and fly,
Make a wish and kiss this hell goodbye.
Let it flow, let it rise, let it reek the skies.
One lonely heartbeat taking shape…
Proclaim no shame,
And follow the scent that leads us to this dark descent.
The rest is silence and broken constellations.
As we celebrate our fall.
Sun down, let it grow and strike the stuff of stars.
Have you fears? Have you tears to melt creation?
Rejoice your fall to blackness and shine,
Be the blaze that lights our slow decline.
Let it glow, let it rise, let it scorch the skies.
One final, gentle, fond embrace…
Proclaim no shame,
And follow the scent that leads us to this dark descent.
