"Black Hxle '99"
As the cold slits your tongue
The final moment has begun
Engraved in poisoned air he sung
The fallen prophet praised by one...
Collective mob that crucifies
Those who speak against their lies
Deviations from normality
Condemned to death by bigotry
The time is nigh
No more wait
No delay
You say...
"There are some who gaze down upon us
Yet heaven is not our fate"
The time is nigh
No more wait
No delay
You say...
"There are some who gaze down upon us"
But I say "It's not worth the weight"
Jungian thought, 12 rules for life
Peasant solutions for simple minds
Christian mythos-conditioned optimists
Toxic veil to gather feeble men
Apocalipctic philosophy
Shrouded in hustle fallacy
Portrayed by alpha leeches it be
Grinding 9 to 5 monstrosity
The time is nigh
No more wait
No delay
You say...
"There are some who gaze down upon us
Yet heaven is not our fate"
The time is nigh
No more wait
No delay
You say...
"There are some who gaze down upon us"
But I say "It's not worth the weight"
It's coming closer
Colder than death
It's coming closer
Immersing us in despair
The time is nigh
No more wait
No delay
You say...
"There are some who gaze down upon us
Yet heaven is not our fate"
The time is nigh
No more wait
No delay
You say...
"There are some who gaze down upon us"
But I say "it's not worth the weight"

Engulfed by tides
Corrode your insides
Flooded with an anxious existence
A life of permanent unrest
Empty shell immersed in white noise
Talking heads and malicious ploys
Rotting corpses of mortal toys
Faint sound while you dissipate
Crescent sun, Watch it burn
Unfold the truth of your fate
As you slip through the cracks
Faint sound while you dissapear
Crescent sun, so just run
Disassociate, let your core disintegrate
As you slip through the cracks
The procession marches on and....
On infinite song they see no wrong
Every plea on deaf ears, they carry on
Enraged by empty rethoric
Euphoric confusion celebrating ignorance
The truth sniffed by a natural born sceptic
Faint sound while you dissipate
Crescent sun, Watch it burn
Unfold the truth of your fate
As you slip through the cracks
Faint sound while you dissapear
Crescent sun, so just run
Disassociate, let your core disintegrate
As you slip through the cracks
With a hopeless gaze
I feel a faint taste of love
Wishing our embrace would last forever
But forever was not meant to be
With a hopeless gaze
I feel a faint taste of love
My heart in your hands
No matter what happens
Ephemeral but true
Ephemeral without you

Praised be the sun seen from the slaughterhouse,
"Blood-tinted glow, this ancestral show..."
"Moved me beyond my will..."
With eyes fixated on pale ceilings,
Glued to the beds, gravity pulls.
"Forget the clamor of today,
Forget the piece that wouldn't fit.
Forever roam to find your way.
Forget the tremors and pray,
Say what's left there to say.
Forever you will be our prey"
"Took for a fool, I'm slandered, ostracized...
I've been mistaken, taken for granted, but I know...
Thrown the key, locked the door, to the slaughterhouse.
Pull the plug, memories I've got to endure...
To take things into my own hands.
Sunken eyes that fear what tomorrow holds,
Cold unknown paths that now unfold.
Tread, hold back the tears, as the colors now unfade.
With eyes fixated on pale ceilings,
Glued to the beds, gravity pulls.

Thus made the light he bore before,
Dimly lit forevermore.
Your
Spore
Asthenic deities.
"I've purged all my sins
onto this blood-soaked water.
Let it all swim through my limbs."
"Pungent smell sends shivers down my spine.
I re-align thoughts.
Have I been here before?"
Fruit-bearing casket
Grips its roots onto thee.
Silently, this screaming voice
is heard.
Thus made the light he bore before,
Dimly lit forevermore.
Your
Spore
Asthenic deities.
Thus made the light he bore before,
Dimly lit forevermore.
Your
Spore
Asthenic deities.
"Have I been here before?
I re-align thoughts."

"I've watched myself erased from the face of this earth."
"I've watched myself replaced with less of a sigh."
"For me, there's no more trace of a face that once had left."
"I've watched myself erased from the face of this earth."
"Stop me from succumbing to..."
"Against the current, not subjecting myself to..."
"I've stopped crushing all that I am."
It's like a flower in bloom,
Your springtime in June.
Delayed, not overstayed,
Gasping for air when you stare.
It's like a summer too soon,
2 seconds and you
Fade into your own memories,
Grasping the present's slippery sands.
Woke up briefly from tempest and pain,
The scarlet rain came on to me yet again.
Reach balance, find your center, enter a new paradigm,
Composed of all that's already in you.
"Stop it from consuming me..."
"Against the current, not subjecting myself to the..."
"I've stopped crushing all that I am."
It's like a flower in bloom,
Your springtime in June.
Delayed, not overstayed,
Gasping for air when you stare.
It's like a summer too soon,
2 seconds and you
Fade into your own memories,
Grasping the present's slippery sands.
Neverending tragedy,
Now (that) i've tried mending my malady.

Longing

My longing has taken the sunrise for granted,
Pushing me in and out of cycles.
I've lost my patience;
I've seen myself crumble,
Never returning the same again.
Cold, lost, and old,
Crust of human flesh
By a splinter of decay.
Say you'll stay,
A mirror wrapped in gold,
A soul untouched by no one.
"Meaningless in others' eyes,
It's no surprise.
I summarize briefly what lacks in me."
Vacant by nature,
I've seen myself crumble,
Never returning the same again.
Cold, lost, and old,
Crust of human flesh
By a splinter of decay.
Say you'll stay,
A mirror wrapped in gold,
A soul untouched by no one.
I've lost my patience.
I've seen myself crumble.
Let me go.

And all this angst-filled heart,
Raged on and on until times to come.
That shall end when a rush of autumn pollen
Fills the ramifications of his lungs.
The beating, the waiting,
Excruciating, satiate the craving.
In his eyes, the abyss gazed back at him,
Crystal clear, it's drawing near.
In his eyes, he disappeared.
Hear the solemn song being sung.
And all this angst-filled heart,
Felt the anguish of a thousand piercing needles.
That shall end when scarlet tides devour him whole,
Floating and barely breathing.
The beating, the waiting,
Excruciating, satiate the craving.
Say hello to yourself,
Coming home.
In his eyes, the abyss gazed back at him,
Crystal clear, it's drawing near.
In his eyes, he disappeared.
Hear the solemn song being sung.
"Rampant floods of light,
Echoes the glow within me."
