SCREAM.
Pushing through the rivers of red
Swords scattered across the battlefield
A warrior yields his pride
Futile attempts to hide
Caught behind a shadow is the need to survive
But eyes are ever staring down
Blackened tomorrow
A magnitude of sorrow for us all
Red lights flicker
Visions are distorted
Caught in a realm of confusion
Where shadow's are always moving
To be aligned with reality
Is a pain that we must accept
The purple sky
Birds fly in it's distorted atmosphere
I fall into white
Without...

A Sight.
My sight is clear
As I stare through the hole
In the wooden door
Pieces of glass are lying on the floor
The pieces reflect a thousand eyes
My focus is perfectly calm
Centered as I walk forward
To see what lies behind closed doors
My right hand pushing
It opens,I enter.
Darkness is consuming the last light
I feel wings painfully emerging
Screaming as I ascend
Floating in mid air
Candles are alight
Illuminating night
My vision returns.
I can see a dark hallway before me
I proceed to fly forward
But a wind...
As I stare through the hole
In the wooden door
Pieces of glass are lying on the floor
The pieces reflect a thousand eyes
My focus is perfectly calm
Centered as I walk forward
To see what lies behind closed doors
My right hand pushing
It opens,I enter.
Darkness is consuming the last light
I feel wings painfully emerging
Screaming as I ascend
Floating in mid air
Candles are alight
Illuminating night
My vision returns.
I can see a dark hallway before me
I proceed to fly forward
But a wind...

xRainx
I lie in this shell all alone
In my hand I hold this phone
Familiar feelings coming back
Gone off track again
Rain pouring down
All I hear is the sound of beauty hitting my ears
Drowning in these cloud fallen tears
Cold feet underneath a blanket
Warm sun is absent
And darkness whispers to me
That winter comes and goes
That the earth stood still and froze
That I'm just one of those
Who think about these things
When rain descends from the sky
In my hand I hold this phone
Familiar feelings coming back
Gone off track again
Rain pouring down
All I hear is the sound of beauty hitting my ears
Drowning in these cloud fallen tears
Cold feet underneath a blanket
Warm sun is absent
And darkness whispers to me
That winter comes and goes
That the earth stood still and froze
That I'm just one of those
Who think about these things
When rain descends from the sky

Naked woman in a tub of roses
With hair so long that it touches the ground
She walks upon broken glass
When she stares time won't pass
When her blood seeps through the cracks
You'll be lost inside her nature
Walk further into her garden
Where animals run wild
You possess the heart of a child
Look and you will find a girl with roses in her hair
She smiles at you
She takes your hand
She whispers but you don't understand
Mute is the sound of her voice
Birds chirping around you
Colors of green surround you
Let go of her hand &...

Flood
The sky will eventually fall
The weak will eventually crawl
Fire destroying us all
Bodies piling higher
Buildings collapsing under the fire
We couldn't avoid the final call
Moon sets sail into the night
Troops of doom come into light
Ready to kill us all
Weakling souls of human kind
Damaged and intertwined
Screaming for mercy
Death will find you
Pain will destroy you
Suffocation and decapitation
War machines of elimination
Final screams
Deadly dreams
You're still breathing
Streets run red with blood
Humanity...
The weak will eventually crawl

Damaged and intertwined
Screaming for mercy

Access
No gods behind his name
The man with severed hands
Blinds you & tames your body
Pulling on your strings
The man with angel wings
Comes to take your soul
To a place unknown
Sending chills down to the bone
Eyes that always stare
Putting you under pressure
No one really cares
Breathe in the cold air
In this place you feel alone
Writing written on stone
The shadows will comfort you
Broken bottle pieces
Careful not to cut your fingers
Blood attracts the nameless
Eerie sounds outside your cell
Don't go out,don't...
The man with severed hands
Blinds you & tames your body
Pulling on your strings
The man with angel wings
Comes to take your soul

Breathe in the cold air
In this place you feel alone
Writing written on stone
The shadows will comfort you
Broken bottle pieces

Blood attracts the nameless

From a futile earth
You break the bones
You steal the heart
Nothing to gain here
Falling apart
But what could I do?
Coffin in a grave
Memories were saved
Becoming the lie you once told
You're changing now
Rose of deception
Tongue of greed
Spilling the water
Planting the seed
Returning now into the soil of the earth
Collapse into darkness
Open your eyes
Evaporating now
Into neon skies
She cries
With sunken eyes
You steal the heart
Nothing to gain here
Falling apart
But what could I do?
Coffin in a grave
Memories were saved
Becoming the lie you once told
You're changing now
Rose of deception
Tongue of greed
Spilling the water
Planting the seed
Returning now into the soil of the earth
Collapse into darkness
Open your eyes
Evaporating now
Into neon skies
She cries
With sunken eyes

The beauty of it all
Floating in the deep sea
Angel above her head
Summer turns to winter
Seasons makes it's bed
City of the sleeping
Children of the damned
No salvation found here
Death will take your hand
But she's just standing there
With feet in beach sand
No one sees what she sees
No one understands
The beauty of it all
The rise and the fall
Building you up
Only to break you down
Hear the final sound
Pumping round after round
Angel above her head
Summer turns to winter
Seasons makes it's bed
City of the sleeping
Children of the damned
No salvation found here
Death will take your hand
But she's just standing there
With feet in beach sand
No one sees what she sees
No one understands
The beauty of it all
The rise and the fall
Building you up
Only to break you down
Hear the final sound
Pumping round after round

Smudge
These pills I take
Keep me awake
Haven't slept in a while
Bedroom mirror reflects her face
But she is dead
I guess it's in my head
My skin begins to peel
Oh god,this is fucking real!
Screaming through it all
Greeting my downward fall
This scene plays out a million times
Obscure faces stare at me
Nocturnal misery
What is this place?
And who are they?
Tomorrow might be a better day
Keep me awake
Haven't slept in a while
Bedroom mirror reflects her face
But she is dead
I guess it's in my head
My skin begins to peel
Oh god,this is fucking real!
Screaming through it all
Greeting my downward fall
This scene plays out a million times
Obscure faces stare at me
Nocturnal misery
What is this place?
And who are they?
Tomorrow might be a better day

NO LIGHT IN THE SKY
You hate the fact that you're alone
You dig and tear through flesh and bone
Dig deeper
On this journey you'll embark
The path is getting steeper
Becoming the monarch
They're screaming in your ears
It's been one thousand years
Shedding crimson tears
Crown of worms upon your head
Throne of shit and piss
"You're the dead end king" she said
Trapped inside false bliss
Losing all that's sane to thee
This is not a dream
Dark clouds hanging overhead
The sunlight fails to gleam
You dig and tear through flesh and bone
Dig deeper
On this journey you'll embark
The path is getting steeper
Becoming the monarch
They're screaming in your ears
It's been one thousand years
Shedding crimson tears
Crown of worms upon your head
Throne of shit and piss
"You're the dead end king" she said
Trapped inside false bliss
Losing all that's sane to thee
This is not a dream
Dark clouds hanging overhead
The sunlight fails to gleam

Swart
Mirror reflects a damaged boy
Staring into the vast depths of nothingness
Happy then sad
A slippery slope of personality changes
My eyes see darkness more than light
Confusion in my brain
Contemplating whether I'm insane
This psychotic roller coaster never stops
Fall down and hit solid ground
Something is pulling me away from this life
Staring into the vast depths of nothingness
Happy then sad
A slippery slope of personality changes
My eyes see darkness more than light
Confusion in my brain
Contemplating whether I'm insane
This psychotic roller coaster never stops
Fall down and hit solid ground
Something is pulling me away from this life

White Mountain
The ship is sinking
I drown in silent waters
Vulture in the sky
Staring directly at me
Feasting upon the flesh of men
Beheaded figures upon sticks
Eyes wide open,brutally killed
Blood dripping from White Mountain
I make my way through dirt and mud
Bleeding out
Open wounds of the past
Revenge in my heart
Blade in hand
No one seems to understand
The hatred inside this man
My way of life is to kill
Hammer them down
Send them to their graves
Leaving none alive
Weeping for their lives
Cannot fly with broken wings...
I drown in silent waters
Vulture in the sky
Staring directly at me
Feasting upon the flesh of men
Beheaded figures upon sticks
Eyes wide open,brutally killed
Blood dripping from White Mountain
I make my way through dirt and mud
Bleeding out
Open wounds of the past
Revenge in my heart
Blade in hand
No one seems to understand
The hatred inside this man
My way of life is to kill
Hammer them down
Send them to their graves
Leaving none alive
Weeping for their lives
Cannot fly with broken wings...
