I hear your voice
It sings so softly Curious to join in A harmony to breathe forevermore Joyous the one to hear a voice In fields where grass grows tall Golden carpets swell and whisper Autumn trees will weep Immune to pity, I've grown used to grief The eternal tear reciprocates In fields where grass grows tall Golden carpets swell and whisper Autumn trees will weep Dawn breaks open like a wound that bleeds afresh In bleak misery, the lifeless lie in squandor Love has left me, fleed from me Fragrant lust waits beside and dies Like flowers that wilt without refreshment In midday sun I sit and bide time Adorning me, a lovelorn rhapsody 02. Sweet Tears
In each others arms
We cried together And your tears tasted sweet All is not lost And never to be forgotten Like a shiver down my spine The lonely nights keep falling And I still want you All is not lost And never to be forgotten She's passed away but dreaming Her soul's awake and screaming The weeping willow is weeping And beneath our hearts... .. all joy is sleeping our bliss is carried away... sweet tears 03. Sleepless 96
And I often sigh
I often wonder why I'm still here and I still cry And I often cry I often spill a tear Over those not here But still they are so near Please ease my burden And I still remember A memory and I weep In my broken sleep The scars they cut so deep Please ease my burden Please ease my pain Surely without war there would be no loss Hence no mourning, no grief, no pain, no misery No sleepless nights missing the dead... Oh, no more No more war 04. Eternal Rise Of The Sun
An unstoppable end
The world turns every day An ending with no end So, for this time of morning I can no longer cry Even though the story goes on The script is being written Start shape our destiny We are the bible... Believe in angels, they believe in you Oh, spread your wings, there is more than this darkness Open your eyes, the horizon has no end You can see forever, you can know all time You can live forever... Every dusk can blind, as a sunrise on a day Every sunset there is, lifts the eternal sunrise And the sunrise ends when the sun dies... And every ending has an eternal beginning... We are the bible... 05. Sunset Of Age
Throne of grief
..in a dying essence Crying beauty ..the fettered aura Forgotten oceans of hope ..Betrayed aphony Sullen laughter in unventured paradise (as one) forever searching For landscapes serene Amidst the sunset of age With joyous masquerade... ..the summers died 06. Nocturnal Emission
My passion rise... a twilight ride
Stark light of dark night in my eyes My forlorn lust... My soul it burns My forlorn lust... My soul is burning Take you now, in my sleep I want to touch you, to scratch you deep To leave you scarred... To see you burn To leave you scarred... To see you burning 07. A Dying Wish
I bear the seed of ruin
A golden age turned to stone Elysium... to dust For this, a tragic journey A vision of a dying embrace Scattered earth Silence... Where Echonia wept I sank into the silent desert Fallen am I, In solitude of a broken promise ..I cried alone My empyrean is a scar From the memory of her beautiful life Forever was her name Fulfilment lost in a lifetime of regret Ornate peace would cover me As I would die now... For one last wish 08. Hope
When you look at me
From your own century I may seem to be Strange archeology But when the winds blow From this direction You may sense me there In your reflection I think I feel you But I will never know As the swallows leave And the children grow I wanted to live forever The same is you will too I wanted to live forever And everybody knew When I caught you there In tomorrows mirror I thought felt you Jump out of my skin Throwing oil into My blazing memories Filling empty footsteps I was standing in I wanted to live forever The same as you will too I wanted to live forever And everybody knew As the falling rain Of the northern jungle Hanging droplets on the leaves Bombards my brain I hear you Across the room A sea of daffodils spring into bloom You are the mist The frost across my window pane And again She moves her body And her whispers weave And the world spins And tells me that I'll never want to leave As I think of you From this dark century I will always be With generosity That we both may share The hope in hearing That we're not just Spirits disappearing 09. Cries In The Wind
Reaching out...
How things look different on the way down Disillusioned, I've lost desire Will I burn in the unforgiving fire? From the flames, I walk away I've found a way to erase the pain An empty bottle, my receptacle A guardian angel called escape Don't dwell on the forthcoming As I know it won't be happening And you know, when I'm gone You'll hear my cries on the wind 10. Fragile Dreams
"Tonight your soul sleeps, but one day you will feel real pain,
maybe then you will see mee as I am, A fragile wreck on a storm of emotion" Countless times I trusted you, I let you back in, Knowing... Yearning... you know I should have run... but I stayed Maybe I always knew, My fragile dreams would be broken for you. Today I introduced myself, To my own feelings, In silent agony, after all these years, They spoke to me... after all these years Maybe I always knew... 11. Empty
Empty vessel under the sun wipe the dust
from my face another morning black sunday coming down again empty vessel empty veins empty bottle wish for rain that pain again wash the blood off my face the pulse from my brain and i feel that pain again im looking over my shoulder cos millions will whisper im killing myself again maybe im dying faster but nothing ever last i remember a night from my past when i was stabbed in the back and its all coming back and i feel that pain again i abhor you i condemn you cos this pain will never end you got away without a scratch and now youre walking on a lucky path i have to laugh but youd better watch your back theres pathetic opposition theyre the cause of my condition ill be coming back for them ive a solution for this sad situation nothing left but to kill myself again because im so empty 12. Nailed To The Cross / 666
Your souls are nailed to the cross
The blood still runs but the wounds will heal and leave scars of rememberance. |
