Time conceals itself in error When all is turned to lie Oh blissful rapture, flee from me The liquid light shares its grandeur The spring of Eden shall never run dry Creation holds its breath
Tomorrow is no friend of mind Drench logic, drench judgement Awake, every sense is new
For we know no tomorrow And yesterday appears in fragmented form
What now must burn Shall with newfound strength emerge Drift my eyes Bacchi gates, bid me welcome
Drench logic Drench judgement
So drink from the fountain everlasting...drown
With these eyes, the land can no longer deceive us
He cried into nothing with the voice of his soul New logic brought upon the remains of his land The land deceives Bacchi gates, bid me welcome
Drench logic, drench judgement Awake, every sense is new
For we know no tomorrow And yesterday appears in fragmented form
For the tallest tree shall battle most The wind it leaves the week behind The storm that you've denied me Shall force your world to fall Your castles made to tremble With foundations based upon a lie
The storm that you've denied me Sweep the undivided truth His mind shall not of thoughts be tempted Nor words can heal his bleeding scars
We must burn our minds
Colours collide with the world of his beliefs Bring back the storm of distant years Tumbling, trembling as there is no waking up There is no dividing line as logic now fails
Stream upwards, rage against them all Speak of words hidden in your song Mere mortals strive for length in numbers There is no dividing line
As the writer defies the empty page The empty mind its feed shall seek
Pass on to the frail and mindless Now what sanity discards
The storm shall sweep the weak of heart And tear your castles down Crush the very foundations On which your faith is based Torn across the dividing line
Come and dance through my vanity's halls Welcome to my exhibition
Ornaments fall The fate of my art, condemned And the creative seed That grows to the tune of the harvest song Embody my lifelong passion Intertwine with the structures of my art Those empty frames staring at me
One lonely portrait covers the lovestarved canvas In honour of the birthless rebellion within me
Every picture holds a tale Every shade tells of a thousand words
The artistry of living chaos Is pictured in the poets tears Because everything burns The final concept Is all but a thought away
Be gone, you foul enchantress of decay! My thoughts and words will come to right In my chamber where chaos conveys Kneel down to my desire
Deep in the vaults of my carnal agony Emptiness! Orchestration through colours
Devoid of life Far from the strengthening force From which it feeds The unbroken silence swear allegiance to thee Behold the answers that darkness sets free
Freedom beyond the enslavement
Never let loose upon the world Con we forgive the enchanter that Dance beyond the skyline dark The stains of fire, the one begotten ancestor To one of far greater strength Starvation divine
For he shall stand no taller than the flames That is his feed Let us not go gently Into the endless winternight We are but strangers Acting on our fragmentary perception
Perception is the lie of the misled Things are not what they appear So swear by your deception
There shan't be fire, nor shall the flame Quench the desire to reign With fear of its dawning Appears now in sight The one brooding warning Stand clearer than night
Devoid of life Far from the strengthening force From which it feeds The unbroken silence swear allegiance to thee Behold the answers that darkness sets free
Freedom beyond the enslavement Never let loose upon the world Con we forgive the enchanter that Dance beyond the skyline dark
There shan't be fire, nor shall the flame Quench the desire to reign With fear of its dawning Appears now in sight The one brooding warning Stand clearer than night
Wings of fire burn the night Slumbering eyes their flares shall greet Let the past cling on its futile self And may the present rush for the future's glare
Grave to cradle Cradle to grave So infinity clash Grave to cradle
Cradle to grave In twofold matter
Two forces gone full circle Never shall one of the other grow fond Join me, the time is upon us He spoke and in fury we flew
Far beyond the limits of time Disown the borders of life itself Crafted and moulded all in one form Split up and scattered in the world that we own
Grow towards me Beknight the strength of the symbiosis Backwards striving Counterparts with different eyes have observed Of time unconditional
Grave to cradle Cradle to grave So infinity clash Grave to cradle Cradle to grave In twofold matter
Tell of days to come Tomorrow remembered Your yesterday, my future
Recollection of the day Delusions cast where dead trees sway
The sabre that separates Is the candle that burns both ends
Born from death you now confront me Back to death with my life I take you Die more with each movement of mine
Lethe, Give me to drink of the fluid that disintegrates And lend me the sweet balm and blessing Of forgetfulness, empty and strong
Hold me near, unravel the stars As I speed through the heavens, I speed through the night For you are my blade and my rope You are my Lethe (You are my all)
In currents of cobalt you storm through my heart To sever, to puncture the memories that burn Let sweep through the arteries in sharp stabs of pain Your talon-like fingers to kill me again
Steal me, invade me, and charge me again (And again, and again, and again) For I burn and I shudder Burn with each movement of
So, cleansed through a floodlight I appear, renewed and reforged Caressed by the sweet balm and blessing Of forgetfulness, empty and strong
Lethe, Hold me near, my one friend and guide As I drown through your fingers, Drown through your love For you are the life that I hate You are my, you are my...
Drag me down in passionate sighs With the ocean above me and flames in my eyes And grant my a life I can live Without...
Take me away... Take me away... From the life that I hate
Jackal, aches for pain beyond me Bestiality beckons - The anger set free For there is no pain greater than thine For there is no gain but the fury inside
Desolated since derived Torn screaming from the gaping wound
Always be cherished The grandeur of melancholy Outward reprisal Swear by your throne
Fallen words shall grieve thee The grandeur of melancholy
Frailty, thy name is weakness Vengeance, thy name is pain Storm through the still glowing night Ember eyes beyond reason shall see
Flee from the safety of the sheltering sky See all but logic, so vengeance shall be The grandeur of melancholy burning... oh burning
Charge into uncertainty's promised land
Always and never Your are the nail
Cursed, cursed Oh essence of the night guide me Cursed, cursed Oh sweet revenge heal me Frailty, thy name is weakness Vengeance, thy name is pain The nail
Jackal, aches for pain beyond me The storm that now grabs me Is the storm of my soul For there is no pain greater than mine For there is no gain but the fury inside
Once so bereaved And ever so suppressed Charge and split up the anger Wake up the jackal Let out his wrath
Always and never He spoke of his pain Always and never You are the nail
Always be cherished The grandeur of melancholy Always and never You are the nail
