Gluttonberries
In graceful dance ov ever, as fountains have towered above me
The days ov celebration and that ov the foul lake
Fathers ov the knell...
...Burn up the sun
And pluck me from my ripeness
As passion dies
As love itself has failed
And unto the earth we thrive
Ov acorns that gather and cradle to kindest ov ears
Even they are judged to a winter's tide...
...Judged by sorrow days
Through windows ov sunken eyes
As time leads our summers on
Nothing but idle tales...
...And flowers yet to be fair
Make the berries glutton with...

Godsend
With grace, my mother, can you play the harp?
Like an angle to a saint?
I feel so lonely, the loved falling far from grasp
Dei gratia
Heal the wounds that cut so deep
To never cease, feeling such misery, so real
To utter with a lisp, so subtle
Ab initio ab finem
I kiss your forehead
You clasp my palms
The uterus from which gave birth
Stares withered and supine
Hide the cries you hear
Stripping you naked
Wipe the sweat from your brow
Weep the given drought
The shrouding ov the light
Death is your godsend...

Diabolical Prognosis
Seething abyss
Rising from deep
Bursting rage
Come down upon them
I summon thee
Lord ov disaster
Appear from the dark
Above the black flames
Smoking frankincense ov ire and punishment
Surrender yourself wholly to the burning irritation
Hallowed by the light ov the crimson candle
Under somber vaults echoes my damnation
Leave domains
Ov abandoned souls
Realms ov death
Sorrow and grief
Chaotic tortures
Inhuman suffering
Plague and sores
Thy wrath will bring them
Singing dead words ov...

Friend in the Sky
My friend from above
Between those clouds
We stand and watch
Our mind is greeting us
Bubbles ov a clear day
And the green plateau ov anger
A field, not a rice field
We stand under the leaves ov a tree
The river is floating under our feet
The birds chirp and the butterflies
Are searching
No clouds in the sky
The face ov a friend
Is written in the blue sky
Worship the omnipotent sun
Dive into the mirage
Straight-angled death
That instigates the air to reduce
The stench ov my heart dies
I bury it in my...

Ain't No Place Like Home
When I wake up in my house
I get dressed then I get lost
I don't know which way to go
I guess I'll have a cup ov joe
Where the hell was I anyways?
So I end up on the street
Walking and talking to my own beat
In a fog, in a haze
I've been tripping out for days
Can you help me find my way home?
One...
Two...
Three...
Don't rock the boat now, just let it slide
Groovy people walking back and forth, that's right
So I hop onto this bus
Destination reads "please save us"
Not a soul that I know
To be...

Waking Dream
Are these the eyes ov a madman that see a crumbling sky?
Reaching out for the answer, please tell me why!
In a state ov reclusion, in a shell-shocked mind,
Gazing into the darkness that I can't find...
Stay calm, there's panic all around
Listen to the silence, it's so loud
Raise hell, who says that I'm insane?
Follow, let the blind man lead the way
Draining the life from me
My ears, they bleed
Twisting each ov my dreams
Insanity was born in me
In the chill ov a nightmare, awake in screaming pain
Bowing down to emotion, every...

In My Dreams
Sometimes when I look into my mind
There is a place I have to find
It's a world with no real borders
There is no law, there are no orders
I fly away into the sky
I've lost control, I'm flying high
And on top ov the highest place
I see your oh so beautiful face
If you're alone just close your eyes
Come with me and see the sun rise
My journey into freedom has just begun
See all the things that have yet to come
You're not alone inside your mind
There is a place you have to find
Come with me to my domain
And become a part...

Eternity's End
Tell me what I see, are the sands ov time ending for me?
Tell me the stories untold, because I know that tomorrow won't come
Let me feel the forgotten fears ov our darkest dreams
Take me to the hidden valleys, show me your mighty kingdom
I'm dead, but can you feel my still warm remains?
Is this the end ov eternity?
My pale cranium lies on dreaming deserts
And now I see the glories ov your divine worlds
I wander ahead through grotesque pleasures
Take me into your mind
Let me feel the lustful desires
I want to copulate with it all...

Waiting
You didn't want me to fall
And you have always been there
Hiding in the dark mist you saw me withering away
Why can't you let me die
So that I can fall in eternal sleep
As I'm waiting for the unknown...

Dismal Desolation
Lying in my bed, afraid to fall asleep
The time passes by so fast as I'm thinking ov the past
Plans for tomorrow so vast, my pointless life without peace
No reason to make it last
The night comes so soon, everything seems so gloomy
As I'm waiting for the dawn, gleams ov dismal desolation
Looking in the mirror, all I see is the sorrow
As I close my tired eyes, drown in waves ov darkness
To feel again the fears ov my dreams
After the sleepless night I leave the darkness for a moment
Feeling the warm sun on my dying body
So much has to be...

Bleeding
Burnt all bridges I have passed
No looking back to the life I once had
The hate for myself is all that's left now
On my skin, the razor blade is shining bright
The veins show clearly through, my blood is running wild
The deep red flowing within, longing to be free
A little pressure's all it takes to make me bleed...
To death
As blood runs down my arms
I feel peace in my heart
No looking back to the life I once had
The hate for myself is all that's left now
On my skin, the razor blade is shining bright
The veins show clearly through, my blood is running wild
The deep red flowing within, longing to be free
A little pressure's all it takes to make me bleed...
To death
As blood runs down my arms
I feel peace in my heart

Freedom
Towards the horizon
From under the sea
Firmament
Is laughing at me
Greenish visions
From the past
Millions ov coffins
Ov the future
The waves sing death
I'm listening to their message
The sky melts and the stars fry
I'm a cell in your veins
Ears turn into birds
Flesh starts to shrink
My tear-ducts evacuate shapes and rain
Slugs are crawling on the sun
Your mental health is weakening
The planet surrounds you
You're only a reflection
Look at me, I'm your scenery
Paint me and you'll see
