Tracks



01. Hogtied Angel

No candle can light this dark place happy
I look on traces of tragedy
Tears still wet and mould through these walls
When I was sober and clear in mind
I saw warmth and made it to my home
This crypt of putrefying flesh

Entombed, now in utter hell
Concealed, away from humankind
Dismayed by their liveliness
A Pharaoh's tomb built by suffering

Entombed, now in utter hell
Concealed, away from humankind
Dismayed by their liveliness
A Pharaoh's tomb built by suffering

Now crippled by intoxication
I realise this is hell
Is life eternal here
Oh, please - come and save me!

I know I hold the daggers
Five hundred blades at my heart and throat
Cutting with devilish slowness
Mars has turned its moons on me

Entombed, now in utter hell
Concealed, away from humankind
Dismayed by their liveliness
A Pharaoh's tomb built by suffering

Forever I shall endure
My souls burning ache
And I must prevail
Though my heart a thousand times will break

Entombed, now in utter hell
Concealed, away from humankind
Dismayed by their liveliness
A Pharaoh's tomb built by suffering

02. Slithering

Hold on tight
There is no sunrise for us
Accept and come with me
Don't even try
The bother is all too great
For your mistake

To be the one
The serpent in your spine
To lead them down
To worlds of cosmic cold
To be the one
Descended from ahigh
The one to make them blind

Care no more
For the ones that you saw fall
They never picked you up
It's OK to cry
The last thing you will do
As human

To be the one
The serpent in your spine
To lead them down
To worlds of cosmic cold
To be the one
Descended from ahigh
The one to make them blind

Head on forth
Who cares for delight
In this night
On this feast

To be the one
The serpent in your spine
To lead them down
To worlds of cosmic cold
To be the one
Descended from ahigh
The one to make them blind

Hold on tight
There is no sunrise for us
Accept and come with me
It's OK to cry
The last thing you will do
As human

03. Chifra

So why can I not smile now?
Unveil my eyes for beautiful dawning light!
Undress myself, all armour and shields!
Laying down my weapons to never need them again...

Then free to throw down that mask
That mask of disgust

Thus it goes on and on and on
This useless reasoning of a meaning
So it's all gone it's gone, forever gone!
Who has the answer to "why?"
This riddle of life and death?

But God is not on my side anymore
All I ever earned is enemies in life

Then free to throw down that mask
That mask of disgust

Thus it goes on and on and on
This useless reasoning of a meaning
So it's all gone it's gone, forever gone!
Who has the answer to "why?"
This riddle of life and death?

And then the voice is muted
Nothing and none - all in the end

When the question is answered
There is nothing but silence
And the voice is mute

Then free to throw down that mask
That mask of disgust

Thus it goes on and on and on
This useless reasoning of a meaning
So it's all gone it's gone, forever gone!
Who has the answer to "why?"
This riddle of life and death?

04. Flies Halo

This place never looked so grim
The silence is so threatening
One can almost hear the continents move
In this hour so late

We are walking
Walking and walking in circles
With our hearts torn
With our hearts and our souls in our hands

We are walking in circles
With our hearts in our hands
No hunger for nothing
Our souls fled away

Flies halo over our heads
We have stopped breathing
Through all black windows stare
With last minutes to go

Till aeons go to ends
To perpetual cold night

We are walking
Walking and walking in circles
With our hearts torn
With our hearts and our souls in our hands

We are walking in circles
With our hearts in our hands
No hunger for nothing
Our souls fled away

We are walking
Walking and walking in circles
With our hearts torn
With our hearts and our souls in our hands
