Social monsters break your wings
They make you crawl like a worm You hate yourself for being weak And break through hostility After falling you have to rise But they won’t let you grow your wings back And then you start to crawl So relentless like you are invincible No perfection, no purity can be obtained Pleasure, disgust, lust, fear. They rob you of human nature on your way But what is a man without his sins? What’sa man without pain? What is a man with no dreams? What is a man without eternal struggle? You fight and sometimes you lose. But it’s not about what you get It’s who you’re becoming Coldness grows in your heart It’s your only friend Unbiased thinker can understand the universal reason The world has gone awry The world has gone mad 02. Watching Emptiness
Silence can be torn by the sounds of grief.
A bird flies high and falls like a stone A tree loses its leaves, they wither and die Mountains become flat with time, Waters lick rocks until they disappear in the hungry mouth of the sea Everything comes to neglect as its eventual logical end Power and wealth, beauty and fame put us to a test And just few pass it successfully. Rivers turn dry remaining scars on earth Emptiness gathers and becomes thick Sounds of time devour relics of the past and remnants of happiness And silence falls And I’m watching emptiness Memory is like a root that crawls deep through life Sometimes it’s like a rainfall that floods everything inside Stars lose their light and fall forever into light We have no truth that heals Only truth that kills I’m watching emptiness Standing on the cliff of life, I’m watching emptiness. 03. A Blind Man In Darkness
Be blessed and be curse the way our flesh dwells in the universe
Lies cover everything like a shroud Truth has choked in atmosphere of deception Rivers of life carry souls You watch them from afar Darkness will reach them with its destroying hands of death They’re aware of it and live in fear You hear stillness of crestfallen hearts And words erased from memory by eternity Sometimes you see nothing but there’s nothing to see In pitch black darkness of delusions no fire to serve as a beacon Gruesome lands of tragedies emit fears Crowds sip venomous tears of broken hopes Taking vital decisions you draw a map of your life And shape yourself Going down the road of bloody misfortunes Troubles rip at your soul But you have to prevail By taking less travelled roads you obtain yourself Like every kingdom that falls and then rises from ruins A man must rebuilt himself with his own hands And walk tall Die and revive! 05. Plague
Iron jaws are tightly closed
The truth is caged The bones of trust were broken And the tongue is silent Limbs that used to carry a vessel of wisdom Now are weak and motionless. Scars run deep and long across the face Depicting a portrait of ugliness and death This is what my land has become The future is doomed Seeds of hate and fear grow, endlessly grow inside. Oceans of blind eyes can’t tell truth from lies Temples of justice strange innocence With greedy twisted hands they steal everything they can. With greedy twisted minds they cultivate a nation with plague in heart. 06. Darkness Becomes Us
I feel the presence of corrupted souls
The sun burns the sign of evil on servants’ skin Well-oiled machine gives a gasp Symbolic masks can no longer hide the faces of their owners Overwhelmed with power and might Infested with devil’s worms The ruler’s sanity dims Victims turn into vultures And enjoy their revenge on rotten corpses of lions and kings Perversions of daily routine poison the soul of the man today His petrified heart can no longer feel And dried eyes shed no tears of repent Pathetic thoughts and obscene desires That’s our paradise It’s built on earth and it’s splendid Gory illustrations show sins in prime Thousands of pages of lies are written for a mentally blind mob Nothingness spreads and grows, becoming strong Winds bring the smell of death that makes everyone drunk Darkness becomes us We become darkness 07. Anhedonia
Yesterday’s pleasures bring you no joy
Dissatisfied hunger is so hard to quench Young flesh Fresh blood Can’t break your indifference Nothing touches your heart Your skin is numbed Disease of consumption Has played a lowdown trick You scream with fear As a blade of steel bites into skin Disaster is near Anhedonia has turned you into a freak Your poisoned soul and body are in the grasp of pestilence Haute cuisine Carnal pleasures and wine Everything is so tasteless You, don’t ask why! Year after year you’ve been destroying yourself Hateful existence Miserable and ugly days, nights Striving for pleasures of heaven You create your own hell |
