Shadowscapes form a web a cross the sky and steal the light that runs the engine of my heart
Decieved by clouds but I know it will soon return to watch my every move like an eye in the sky Lunartic Obsessed I am indeed I will gain no strength this moonless night Heavens heart or just a long forgotten stone All Me lost or is yet to come The stars will be alone in the (firmament tonight Shadows grow stronger across the sky The sun prepares for battle The night is soon to die Vicious beams will soon obscure the presence of the sun of the night My soul dispise the dawning and the light that it will bring Doomed to be nocturnal A creature of the night Another dawn dilutes the dark the void where I can live The rays of light bum òó skin and ravage my desire I close my eyes and I await the vengeance soon to come When the dusk will bring the unlight and heal me once again I have to return to my tower before the twilight will drain me of life Tomorrow I need to be caressed by the moonlit sky or my soul will be carried away by the light Just like the sun of the night The moon is mine Oh how I long to be one with the sun of the night Oh how I long to unite with the sun of mine 02. Patchworks
I have healed the broken wings of fatten angels and laid the wildest storms to rest
I have tamed the fury of a thousand oceans All I've done to fall asleep A tribute to the dreaming A hymn to the delusions that sometimes realty feels like they're real In the deepest slumber reality is blended with fantasies and things I have repressed When I awake all the stories remain inside my head Memories forgotten always reappear in the wicked sceneries Characters that once tell into oblivion united with my recent past Tribute to my dreaming Hymn to the delusions that I sometimes realty wish were for-real In the deepest slumber reality is twisted and staggered across the halls of my head When I awake I can remember it still and it is nothing that my senses can kill And I fall through the passage of time Then there's the nightmares That never seem to leave my mind I can't escape it They're even stronger when I close my eyes How to forget and how to erase all the wicked scenes in here How to make them disappear and burn this patchwork of fear How to delete How do I stop all the sickened things I see in this spurious diary that wasn't made by me How to replace my artificial memories 03. Uncreation
A tale forgotten long ago brought to life again
Ancient wisdom ancient lies Horrid lullabies for the earth Time will turn my prophecies into reality and it will lead the world astray Death found the remedy for its enemy Ifs too late the seize the day Time and my malicious spells live In harmony They await the hour set Rapture of all that Is alive The reaper will arrive to invert the hour glass Oh uncreation The evolution in reverse Oh uncreation The death of universe His reflections on the end still unknown to man Dark predictions dark cliches in this recital of doom The world is aging backwards The young remains the young We all know tomorrow will be yesterday reborn The time and space deserted will hold no life for man We face these final hours to be buried in the past Something Is wrong with the sky tonight The clouds are darker than ever before There is unrest in the stars alight As if they warned me for the distant roar The sun is descending Nevermore to shine Light is lost forever We are the last in line 04. Add Reality
Time is ever-changing I will never have It back
Sometimes I had wondered if the best was yet to come I can't deny it there are moments I regret So much I'd do different if I could do it all again I lost the world and I didn't find it until you found me Gone but it came back in the wake of your smile Now I am stronger growing the soul of a man And I know my heart will never be alone again I've got a life and nothing will make it go away I guess we glorified the world around us as we went along the way One day reality was all there ever was I ate and drank your beauty and breathed the air you had breathed Then came the autumn and the winter like before Dreamland turned to realland and we faced a new frontier We lost the world Sometimes we hold it but it's slipping away When we add reality it doesn't taste like our dream Then there's too much sour, too much salt in our world There's too many cooks to decide what two lovers shall eat We're not alone I know you know what I mean with these words now don't you We're siamese children related by heart And nothing can tear us apart When we share the silence she knows what I'm saying Words though unspoken are changing heart Two thousand days have now passed since I met you and of so many only four houndred alone - only four hundred alone Then we were joined by a fusion of my eyes and the face of an angel It reminds me of her With you around all the day are worth living and when we add reality now we're still standing strong 05. Creating Illusions
You create a hell for the ones to buy your illusion
You design a spell that you cast upon the forsaken Hortative You engender temptation Re-create Invent the latest sensation Procreate Produce the perfect delusion Your god is digital You erase the deviations Adding beauty to the frail Dreams contrived upon a drawing-table set the pace of the vain Trust the vagaries of fashion Do what an the others do Total loss of independence You've always wishing you were someone else You behold your victims inane Opinions cast aside And when they try to change And try to find their native demeanor They are frozen out. precluded from the coven from the mass of fools There's a message and receivers who will see it as a rule There's an image made to covet Global mass-manipulation complete High-technology will cover all the errors in the way Can't you see that you deflower and deform the generations to come I will have to confess The music you listen to now Is pretty damn far from the truth In league with machines That help me to play all of the harmonies born in my head 06. The Big Sleep
Sometimes when I think about it it doesn't make any sense
I mean I'm alive and plan to be for yet another seventy years Time waits tor noone Not even tor god We're only immortal for a limited time Someone said we were only born to die Someone said there is a meaning with it all I love the world and I barely believe that I will leave it for good one day Someone said my religion is the way Someone said don't try to say that you are not afraid No I refuse to let the angels take me away I have already learned what heaven and hell is about The big sleep is the only thing that is for sure and we're all gonna face it Ifs something we have to endure Dreamers say that time will come with a way to stay alive They mean science will finally reach its goal and offer everlasting life I love my life and it's so hard to hear that one day all I am will disappear I have seen grief and what it does to you The day will come when I will lose what I was made of I try to imagine what that would be like but the thought is so unreal so it is filtered out I'm so afraid that I won't have the chance to tell the ones I love how I really feel inside I hide my emotions for far too long I'm so afraid too lose you all that's the essence of this song Am I the only one to think that hell is to be left alone To live without that special someone To feel like the king that lost his throne Have you ever seen the dying Touched the fading one The last time I saw the Queen of nostalgia she was basically already gone Time waits for noone Not even for heroes Life will have its way and we have to follow Someone said it might be true what they say Someone said I will be able to freeze the frame of what you are today I have no wish to be young forever I just don't wanna die Someone said our souls will live again I say the only one that I wanna be is mine 07. Encounterparts
[Instrumental]
08. In Empty Phrases
Here I am in my chamber
In my room full of words Always searching for patterns that will give life to a line My poetry is frozen though it's beginning to melt The solid form is changing to the liquid of thoughts written down Sentence after sentence in a language not mine Loss of point no direction A jigsaw where no pieces fit I envy the writers and the ðîåts who know the way to the places were poetry grow There is no harvest if you never sow So I beg, steal and borrow wherever I go If words were like music this would be a book But this is not even worth the time that it took Not even a novel just a self-pity tale written by someone that always will fail So very fragile inside That's why I hide in the empty phrases |
