Fall with Me
|
|
The ruin of your face Pours down like lead tears As you sit by my side Confess to me your fears Drink deep the wreck of me My body is a funeral I fail to find comfort In your pale cold eyes Worn loosely about me You hang there dying off me Deep in the misery Of my long arms, weeping I cradle your tired head This moment for the keeping Her hand raised from the shadows in silence Like a dying victim of a biblical plague A strange mix of innocence and horror Gushed from her red rimmed and swollen eyes Resentment conquers sympathy and I turn my back Her burning stare, like a minute blazing suns Roars into the back of my head And I simply move away I will sing you this song of All my pain, so listen Great roaring, tears pouring Down unto me from my lover The winter in your soul Has frozen me forever |

My Body, a Funeral
|
|
Our great god lies naked next to me I witnessed death in his beauty I feel him when he breathes, as we fall and I clasp him to me as we fall Shouldering your sadness unto me The great caldera moon to the east The annihilation from your eyes Flowing deep into me from your eyes You wallow in your suffering and swim in your senseless grief The shadow of your body Is cast upon only me Goodnight my love, goodnight. I fall upon your body Fall with me into my frozen flesh My hungry death You tremble before me and swallow my dying breath Caress me, undress me, forget me As winter comes Your pale skin, crystal eyes I will weep forever, oh my god why? As fire fell upon great Alexandria Our arms were close around us Forever gods turned away Give the word and down comes beautiful rain glorious pain Armies of salvation laid to waste The host lifts its desire from it's face In a memory from a past life leaps the beast Devouring all around, the colossal feast |

The Lies I Sire
|
|
Before it lies The story of invoking joy Endless love Given to me through a dream A following from above I couldn't help myself God walks by my side Within my limbs burns hate Believe me how I cry The tremble of my hands Blinded by my tears But I stand heroic The holy words I heed With glory and blazing eyes I rise into bloody skies Myself a storm, ravaging The wrath of God, down I bring With mercenary's smile I rise up from the shade As the king of all souls The pounding of my wings Tearing through the night Death's taking his toll The sear in heat Burning eyes Fury and fire A forest gone Torn victims The lies I sire My work is done and I leave none The passion in my dying worth The grief I leave is meaningless The lies within these ancient words |

Bring Me Victory
|
|
Is there anything left Left of me to save My life is like a carnival My body a sunken grave It's what I have to do To distance me from you Lays a suffering inside And my veins are showing through A man becoming child Are you happy with your cries With haunted looks of fear I stab the wing from your side My mind a fractured ruin The crushing of my soul It is time to spread my wings To fill this empty hope It has now begun The force fed sun beneath Will conquer all before And bring me to my victory I've seen them before Down from the fall And now standing tall I've seen this I have been this And now I am my own man No more misery Look outside and see What are you waiting for? Pick yourself up Get up off the floor |

Echoes from a Hollow Soul
|
|
A boy so young upon the gallows Gazing down like a saint From the church of children cries He awaited one anticipation Pictured from her mouth A further request The sons of Adam Put her to death A voice is heard Echoes from the hollow soul A golden word Wrapped in books of skin and blood From harmony lives a vision of your guilt And treachery smiles, oh so very sweet The last whisper from a dying heart Lifts away through the night Chased by angels falling through the sky As the snow waters aside This closing river takes all away Daughters of Eve slowly fade (fade away) Give him a word and the movement will begin If it's unheard, the message must be sent So slowly now, like the early morning bloom And this is how the perishing will come |

Shadowhaunt
|
|
She already knows how this will end The wounds of memory she tends Ghost and strangers She flees her own grief Forever running Haunted she sleeps In shadows she lays all alone Remembering her lover gone Through forests she walks every day Through winter storms, every day She looks through dark eyes Over her shoulder She already knows when it will find her I'm coming, keep running Tormenting you! Hastily do you flee I'm coming! I'm coming! My dear, I'm here All shadow and sorrow I have thee, final ly Embracing you! Young lover, it's over together and never! |

Santuario di Sangue
|
|
With your baronial motif Mankind at your feet and your opulent guests With whom you do test The whisper of your blood The call to those you loved Who lay down for you For you to run them through Carelessly dressed I grovel highness Beneath your stars and your moon and your feminine doom Beneath the shiver of your sea and the gold that you bleed On the wings of your charm A promise of great harm The light within us fades As we shy away from day The passion of her bite and the glory of her sight In a hive of open lore We await the call to war In an issue of drying blood Lies the victim of our love Regale me with lies and punish me outright The crisis of my empire The volume of your desire Your enfolding dark Your beauty and your mark I give you my veins As we lay down in pain I couldn't help the things we did No matter where or how I hid We live for every single night Victorious in every fight |

A Chapter in Loathing
|
|
As darkness stole me away One evening of sober grey She alone did not laugh As I walk the devil's path Without your moon and your sin I could not find my way Though I fight and I fear I will never ever pray In a tower he sits Aged with despair His anger was poison and fire and pain Torrents of tears Echo his dark reign The great beast of religion Sears me Thy chaste breast, a ruin Thy silent mind, closing in His son, rampant and gorged with blood His face - behold horror Armed with eyes of terror Taking - shows no mercy Each one of us |

Death Triumphant
|
|
I have a eulogy pouring out o f me A coldness pouring out of me Come hither to me, as I preach to thee So wake up, as I preach to thee If I can't conquer the atlas of your body Then help me lord Reach for me I raise my arms up to thee I love you with the tears of all my sorry life Thy sunrise gushes into me like burning gold In moonlight I see yourself Naked, for me to hold You have a eulogy for the world to see Up there with the stars, for mankind to see I was cynical I was beautiful The deep secrets in my eyes There was something there That made me aware A drop of passion in your eyes Where she lays free There's a portrait there That looks just like me In great Babylon Right down by the sea Fear keeps on coming on Take me far from this dark Enslave all for the world End this now, close us down There's a portrait |
