All horizons fall through dying stains
A crimson crown to call my own O home is everywhere i voyage And darkness is always with me... I call to the sirens echoing in sweet laughter Broken hopes 'neath the surface With haunting eyes they stare... Through black waters, wearing tresses A figurehead warped, stares homesick afar Never depths... My dear despair Never Blind in delirium, navigating the continuum flux... Nothing Submerged in limbo, of nautica they sing... True majesty Oceans wide, eyes wide... Forever to treasure... Carry on Infusing insight, the fabric of space ignited Silent time reveals tragedies chartered All triumphs were drowned...And the sirens too... Silent time reveals... All triumphs were drowned... Symphony for the pilgrim, intrinsic wake, opulent discordant soul... My arabesque Setting sail from paradox lost to a paradise found Paradise, paradise found Paradise, paradise found 02. Xenoflux
Perfection, a world apart we are
Bright star and the eye ...I am Riding the tides. Crux... Astral grace Down silver locks to cosmic crossings How far have i come? As saturn devours, of mind-streams' oddity Rift wrought souls rupture, rippling... All shackles have now fallen, nebulae horses pulse on Can i feel? Locked within Pandora's music box Watching from the portal of i Baying through woven soundscapes A black dog lays at my feet... Oblivion... Cold, celestial brilliance The canvas unframed, elation Circus of radiant motion, alive A handful of earth... The only reminder Majesty, take my hand We weep to believe, where only dreams have witnessed beyond We weep to believe, where only dreams have... 03. Of The Leper Butterflies
Oh why?
Oh why the butterfly of man? Oh why? Oh why precious beauty? With eyes that speak tongues Foresight and memory, maelstrom wormholes Behind, the vast passion A wish is made upon a nebula From the leper's kiss Conjuring ordered chaos Kaleidoscope in motion Adorned a porcelain mask O'er the enigma... Pierrot of te garden Where light parts way The leper has come home... I, leper ...Why, why? I,leper ...Why? 04. Forget Not
Masquerading, the grey vultures
Coalescing in black swansongs ...Of the dead ...As the dead sigh Therein the quickening shadows Kisses upon lifeless fingers ...As the dead sigh ...As the dead sigh ...Of always ...As the dead sigh Over the frontier of always In remembrance, they are anthems ...The anthems ...Forget not ...For those gone ...Forget not Never... Down by the waters, beneath the willow drapery Cold, timeless prince... Cloaked in raven wings With two penny moons, passage through the boatman Across starlit waters, were dreamscapes are golden... How they lived they will be remembered We now stand in the footsteps of the anthems Ne obliviscaris For the noble souls that were and will be On... The dead sigh on Ne obliviscaris They are anthems Ne obliviscaris Forget not... Never What waits beyond in exile's garden sings of the unknown The renaissance of death echoes eternally, all's not lost Death echoes Death echoes Forget... Forget not 05. And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope
Kings of our emptiness, the flagellants align
Their mouths fill with questions, blessed they are by God's tokens Ware to walk the painted...the painted path Walking the painted path through our plague fields Ware to walk the painted path Through the plague fields Kings of this carousel, disfigured upon white horses With Goya's claws and Dore's wings Down golden locks to red crosses Crowned children screaming from funeral shrouds To rapid eye movement, heart-strings undone ...Our beautiful filth dances... and plague flowers Why our wall to reason fall...only human Kings of our emptiness, the flagellants align Their mouths fill with ashes and death's tongue The dappled dying Flowering cold grey tombs With crumbling walls... I feel Our truth is laid bare ...And plague colours A masterpiece of pain The portrait of what we are... 06. As Icicles Fall
Can you remember the words of our dying mother?
All winters' white... And wonderful The third eye spies the greatest pain In league with the cycle of life... Feel the change Her breath of frost upon the house of man's beating heart Sleep children (sleep...), such colours to be seen Sanguine glaciers, the veins of our prelude Fore this is where she lies. Mother, be our eyes... As the icicles fall, moments of reverence The invention of all, everything calls and every lifeline ignites The tears of mother, everlasting season ...But the phoenix empire exhales, the curtain call to embers Within us she lives, around us she's dying The fading lights blacken, gardens euphoric...Cowering underworld order The winds sing our dirge... This is where she lies The veiling unveiled...Mother, our mother beats down er ashen wings Mother, be our eyes... Grey and dripping the blood of mother Feel her pain Evolving, the shroud she gathers This is where she lies In abstraction without colours We die with the fall of the icicles Lost to pigment the pale paradise... Swept in tow to the danse macabre In hand to cold claws of time... Broken shutters gape open wide Breathing in hoarse whispers on high... Cry... White noise witch choir Ice tears of our mother Pillars of monolith and ice, laced with lightning Besieged by the void, the anti-matter of mind Once were painted walls, now they preach parched skin petals The freeze-frame tomb unfolds for our mother... Cry... White noise witch choir Fall of the icicles Mother... 07. Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise
Swan of pale
Of porcelain white Her halo, a bloody sun Framing a Botticelli face Of petrichor weaves black noise Where her frame disfigures Pale of the swan, painted... Dying Wilting in red ribbons Lashing black sails, a tattered mane Her mouth,m a death's head smile Tongueless choirs and baited breath Ever watching... The angels beheaded Bleeding this heart, come clarity Resonance... Of petrichor weaves black noise Light draped, ephemeral Her stain glass horizon The house glass shattered Glacial starffell memories Caligari haunting... Within this cabinet of change Upon flutter eye wings In efflorescence, the shadows' sarabande ...An silence was her name... The silence so loud Time... Cleanse these severed hands of time Rain, rain again Wash away this pain O moon kissed flesh New kingdom come of earthen vast Libera me... Rain, rain, earthen... Shine, shine New kingdom, shine Shine on... Dreamer, i Dream o dream Dream, follow me afar Weep, come kingdom come (ohh) hope... Libera me... |
