Monastery
04:42
|
|||
Dusk falls, red skies
Time to review the lies
Faces haunt their dreams
Drags them downstream
Living ghosts in expiation
Grimace of retribution
Shelter of the pious
Home of dying truths
The sacrilege of evil deeds
Is pardoned and burned like weed
Let the sinners bear the cross
Reach forgiveness at any cost
Minds at a loss
Heavy stones gathering moss
Crying as the heavens gleam
Down in the monastery
From their faults the spirits flee

Centuries Asleep
04:46
|
|||
Blowing slowly
Weaving a vessel of dreams
Waving gently
Nothing happens to me
Centuries Asleep
My love is in a faraway home
Her face is cast in stone
She's in a cold world
Dying yet never been born
Centuries Asleep
Numbness is as sweet as it can be
Magic is locking me in
Resting in a soft drape of black
I am never turning back
I'm never turning back
Never
Blowing slowly
Weaving a vessel of dreams
Waving gently
Nothing happens to me
Centuries Asleep

Bottomless
04:04
|
|||
You've been kicked out for the very last time
Serving your time for committing no crime
Salvation slowly slipping away
Little is left at the end of the day
It's bottomless
And there's no rest
Asking yourself what's the root of your pain
You end up thinking that your soul has no stains
God has forgotten
your miserable life...
Shit like this has got you
sewing your eyes
Terminus of a life of dreams
You've wasted your time or so it seems
You've turned gold into burdensome lead
Still you're believing that you were misled
It's bottomless
You've wasted your chance...
Wasted!

The Talking Mask
04:24
|
|||
My imagination
Is a corner in the dark
Master of deception
I'm the living mark
Drift into the unreal
Cast far away
Hold on to damnation
Let me hear it say
Let me hear it say...
Blinded by illusions
And questions from the deep
Will I live forever
Or will I die asleep?
Drift into the unreal
Cast far away
Hold on to damnation
Let me hear it say
Let me hear it say
oh Let me hear it say
Masks in the hallways of my dreams
The sweetest torments they conceal
Insane eyes are spiralling
Wicked stare now calling me

Ash
05:29
|
|||
The ashes fall from whithered trees
Bones like leaves
Woods and their hollow shells
Slowly cease to be
The skies declaim their last rite
Clouds of misery fold
Simple beauty of the end
Coming down untold
Read from the gospel of the forlorn
And lie down to see
Earth's thick black blood seeping in
A mute collapse is born
Breathe the imminent catastrophe
Set our shining corpses free
We shall finally rip the veil
Crumbled universe, cold and stale

Losing Shape
03:24
|
|||
Lone
Spent my weeks roaming like a freak
Late
wasting time on endless rails
Speechless
Flaming as our lives go by
Seeing
Two black eyes in the hungry light
Drown
Night drive to an unknown place
Feels like
All the taste has burned away
Losing shape
Losing shape
Wait
No use crying rivers of shame
See
All our pictures are losing shape
Somehow
I can feel you're somewhere near
Some day
I will watch you come 'round clear

Loveless Reign
05:32
|
|||
My body's aching
But my soul's unbound
Three hellhounds waiting
To shake me down
When shadows linger
And hard rain falls
I'll feel your fingers
And wait for your call
Look at the skyline
Where dead birds wait
See with your own eyes
This could be our fate
Death's smoking iron
Upon the altar of loss
The reaper beckons
You feel the frost
You cannot conceive,
It's hard to believe
How much we can bleed
Loveless is the reign of eternal tears
Nameless malediction now is drawing near
Loveless is the reign of grievous kings and queens
Faceless is the demon that will count our sins

Vestige
04:33
|
|||
Sometimes our realm stands still
When too much blood has been spilled
Our lord is crucified
His woes infest my mind
And agonize
We have religion, we have a world of laws
We praise a shepherd who'll soon forgive our flaws
We kneel before thee, we'll sacrifice and burn
You'll send us plagues and famine in return
We suck on heaven's blood and wear your skin
We know that you're there when our end begins
Yeah!
Open up your heart and smile, God is right there by your side
Crafting your serenity for all the dead and blind to see
Wishing you will be reborn on your knees wearing crowns of thorns

Cradling Obsessions
05:19
|
|||
Long ago in times of grace
I could hear their call
Softly ringing through the rain
Yet they could drive me insane
My lips were freezing out
Long ago I'd looked for you
But all I'd found was blood
Outstretched hands in a pitch black room
What am I supposed to do?
Trees have eyes that don't let me go
As I burn the forest down
Trees have eyes and I just don't know
If I'm alone
Take me!
Entire lives spent off the rails
Thinking sends you down the drain
Yet you know that you're doomed to try...
Take it all, don't pay the toll
Lose your temper, feel the blow
Senseless actions that you make
You're the one who'll burn at stake
Faces of delusion
Hit the floor, it's your last try
Cradling obsessions
Spend your days within the grind

Voices speak low
Torture my soul
Cracks in my jaws
Break all the laws
Pain comes smiling
Hell vacation
Gone in a flare
Ripped without care
Can't turn the page
Cope with my rage
Dead of the night is the time
Memories twising the knife
Never quite sure of it all
I'm just a face on the wall
Pain comes smiling...
Dreadfully but quietly
The butterfly awakes
Turns around and meets its fate...
Life is just a sin
