Nightward : Adrenaline 12
Lyrics
1. WHITE VENICE
A restless drive
on desert roads
Avoiding the perils of stormy seas
I came to you
A Saturday
That freezing December that numbed the hearts
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
And you were there
Shape divine
Black hair on black eyes that sparkled dark
With a dreamy air
I followed you
To places of silence that burned the hearts
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
It's just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside
So, I'm just going to wait it out, until you say
a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free
From this icy thorny spiral
The blur -
It became so clear in my soul
Slow is the climb over walls
Walls made of tears and adieus
The loss -
It became so clear in my soul
I crack a smile at this joke
Because this life, because this life makes no sense
Godspeed
And when the light fades, lead me astray
Or ghosts will come to me
I need to sail away
on seas of disarray
Was I so wrong
when I said
that goodbyes sound better when one is deaf
And all I asked
To the queen
Was to remember, remember me
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
It's just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside
So, I'm just going to wait it out, until you say
a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free
From this icy thorny spiral
The blur -
It became so clear in my soul
Slow is the climb over walls
Walls made of tears and adieus
The loss -
It became so clear in my soul
I crack a smile at this joke
Because this life, because this life makes no sense
2. AGUIRRE
He was called wrath of god and he has led
His squad to an awful death - it was too late
When they realized that he was a madman
Natives came out to fight and claimed their land
A journey without a reason
Just to say my last words
This green hell is like a maze and
Solid ground won't be my grave
This raft will not take me
So far away from here
To reach what I long for
The city of gold
So now I am adrift
And I'm about to fall
I'm the one who survived
Not caring for them all
I want to be a king
To conquer the new world
And my realm will be in a
City of gold
The birds will drop dead from trees
The earth will quake
I'm strong, I'm bold
Men measure riches in gold
Power and fame
I'll rule I'll endure
Alone I'll stand
My darling you will walk the golden path with me
I am the wrath of god can you forgive me?
When we reach the sea we will build a bigger ship
I am the wrath of god who else is with me?
He was called wrath of god and he has led
His squad to an awful death it was too late
When they realized that he was a madman
Natives came out to fight and claimed their land
3. BOKOR N.
I couldn't say
A word
'Cos you just
Kept on tearing
At my wounded soul and I was dead
And I was
Nothing
Then you hung up
And silence was my fiend
Someone's at the door
I won't even open
I need to be left alone
With my mind and pain
And if I give it up
Make my eyes pretend
To be a mirror of indifference
The switch came even before the idea of a station
Right before I even knew where the rails led to
Tie the knot
Running off the border
Blotting out the lover
Smash the thought
Get out of here
Throw it out
Make me feel empty
Poison me and I'll
Toss it off
'Cos that's what I need
Sex and black magic
Were the shivers of our
Static situation
So why did you feel
Duty bound to tell me
It had never worked out
Now I feel like shit
Don't even know if you
Were right or wrong, bitch
(What matters was left there, in a static motion. Here there's no horizon. I want what I lost. I don't want to be dead, even if I wouldn't miss her anymore. I would have her void with me. I hate her absence. The void. She's not into the void. The void is her)
Tie the knot
Running off the border
Blotting out the lover
Smash the thought
Get out of here
Throw it out
Make me feel empty
Poison me and I'll
Toss it off
Cause this is what I need
4. BOND GIRLS ARE FOREVER
Can you smell it, the scent of our twilight
I'm losing entrails along with the tide
But don't speak, don't say a damn thing
I think it's sweet of you not to wake me up
Can't help it
Got back out
Whose side are you on?
You wanted it
You got it
I'm waving goodbye
Still you think we will be forever
Buried in a trunk under our sea
Will we hear the whales moan one last time?
Not that you care but I can't swim
Fuck
I can't stop the sound
I'll wait outside while you
Fuck
With me
Again
I'll have another drink
Just like we could bounce back again
To our summer haze, our best days
You are still swinging on the gate
Of our summer play, our best days
It's your bleary eyes
That call me inside to speak with the ghosts
I won't answer, cos I am the sleeper
It should be sweet of you not to wake me up
Still you think we will be forever
Buried in a trunk under our sea
Will we sleep in peace beneath those waters?
Not that you care but I can't swim
Can't help it
Got back out
Whose side are you on?
You wanted it
you got it
I'm waving goodbye
Have you felt the pain and forgot to hold it?
You should have marked your skin
With scars
Cause scars
Are love inflicted
Just like we could bounce back again
To our summer haze, our best days
You are still swinging on the gate
Of our summer play, our best days
5. DOCTOR S.
How can I forget that day,
You changed my life, you taught me to cry.
Once again set me free
From such odious lies and oblivion.
Help-me!
Come on start to tell your tales,
Fool, true, odd stories about mankind's race.
Here they are: envy and pride,
Sympathy rolls in without a sound.
Feel it!
Once again set me free
From such odious lies and oblivion.
I'll take care with jealous eyes
Of what you gave me for all my life.
It's not important to you what the people say,
You laugh at them and you wonder at their miseries.
I swear it's true that I'll miss you.
Don't leave me behind!
And I'll miss you.
Don't leave me behind!
Bitter life taste, human weakness, sadness, joy, pain, self deception,
Introspection, tear drops, death, love, mother, ego, childhood, tell me why!
Lead me with your wisdom
And I'm sure, without fear, I'm sure I'll survive.
It's not important to you what the people say,
You laugh at them and you wonder at their miseries.
I swear it's true that I'll miss you.
Don't leave me behind!
And I'll miss you.
Don't leave me behind!
Thousand days not spent in vain,
Trying to understand life in writing rhymes.
Many died before the dawn;
It's just a matter of wounded rage.
Heal me!
Once again set me free
From such odious lies and oblivion.
I'd like to feel you here again at my side.
How can I let you know doctor S.?
That when the wind chimes loudly under my porch,
I still think of you
6. GOODNIGHT APHRODITE
So you will take me where I
I got lost - I got lost
Do you know how to turn back time?
To tear down walls, to mute thunders
Walk on water
'Cos you'd know there is when I
I shed soft tears
Still unfurled I am confined
- Guess my crime -
And now I dig my own grave
So I'm lost in
In this prison, in my mind
- Guess my crime -
And I don't find a way out
Last resort's gone by
The bliss of your last shine
Victimless crime, as you said
Stand by your word
And kick against the odds
And now I try to find the right path
Take my fragile eyes, keep 'em safe and
Take good cover of this my darkness
Burn your happiness over my head
Take good cover over this my darkness
No, can't fly beyond this wall
So kill me one last time
Don't say that you want...
Just let it fade
No, i'll die against this wall
If you'd kiss me one last time
Did i say that I'd fall
Over your wall?
"Here I stand left behind
My eyes are open, open wide
If you need me you should try"
And 'm blind
(Can't find a way)
I'll follow the cawing crow
In the night
(Can't find a way)
I'll follow the cawing crow
Say goodnight
(Can't find a way)
The blame, the glitch is you
Undertake me
No, can't fly beyond this wall
So kill me one last time
Don't say that you want...
Just let it fade
No, i'll die against this wall
If you'd kiss me one last time
Did i say that I'd fall
Over your wall?
7. INFIDELITY FROM A BURIED POINT OF VIEW
Did he wear the ring that rainy day?
Cloud cover over my way
Did he lurk inside the passion play?
Dressed up as a boor
I saw crosses falling on the stage
The curtain ripped from top to bottom
Have you kept the ring or turned the page?
Shedding no sharp tears
Heal your soul find a way
Throw your sloughed off skin in the wishing well
Take your eyes off the stage and don't ask why
Hold your breath
Much ado about nothing just brings silent pain
Take your eyes off the stage and don't ask why
If the mourning ring fits, wear it now
And find a grave with a nice view
How's to lie six feet under regret?
Dressed up as a whore
Heal your soul find a way
Throw your sloughed off skin in the wishing well
Take your eyes off the stage and don't ask why
Hold your breath
Much ado about nothing just brings silent pain
Take your eyes off the stage and don't ask why
let her soul go
You have my deepest sympathy, now mourn with me
Raise your wrinkled fingers to the kindly skies
She'll live with us in memory for evermore
She's going to toss and turn - all death long
You have my deepest sympathy, so mourn with me
Bow your head and fake your best goodbye
She'll live with us in memory for evermore
Always in our hearts, always in our hearts
Put on your black suit
Seems that you like to sensationalize
I'm dead sure you want to recover
Figments of the past
Right from my mind
Get rid of your ghosts
Find the lethal dose
Turning back to those days when you could just wait
let her soul go
You have my deepest sympathy, now mourn with me
Look up to heaven and call out her name
She'll live with us in memory for evermore
She's going to toss and turn - all death long
You have my deepest sympathy, so mourn with me
Bow your head and fake your best goodbye
She'll live with us in memory for evermore
Always in our hearts, our ever guilty hearts
8. LAS VEGAS
Shaun was ten when he made a pledge not to show his dying face.
He remembers too well that day, people dressed for the wake.
Now he sails the seas. Old man
I guess he's tired to see his two mast blowing slow on the waves.
An accident? I don't know.
But no one will ever see his dying face
Jane was waiting for her first show.
She slipped and broke a leg.
She kept crying for many days but we know there's a design.
Jane knows this makes no sense, she won't play.
Jane knows this makes no sense, she won't play.
Show your hidden cards it is time!
You have got to be aware of traps on the way.
So, if they had looked under their skin, and inside their bleeding hearts,
they'd have found:
the gambling house of their dreams, the child they'd never forgot.
Deep inside they know that chance is a fine game to play
She just said I'm with child,
Joe thought with eyes tightly shut about that night.
Then tried to apologize,
but while he was trying, a strange joy inside him rose.
Let this joy rise and open your eyes wide,
you want this child Joe, don't be so blind.
Let him come to you, you want him it's true, let truth come to you, not self lies.
They don't know that life is so full of contradictions.
Nobody will ever shed a tear over their dime stories, they should know this.
Nobody would ever believe their complicated motives.
They'd have known that:
Nobody will ever shed a tear over their dime stories, they should know this.
Nobody would ever believe their complicated motives.
They'd have known that.
So, if they had looked under their skin, and inside their bleeding hearts,

Deep inside they know that chance is a fine game to play
Shaun was ten when he made a pledge not to show his dying face.
Free now he sails the skies unmasked, maybe there's a design.
9. ONLINE SEDUCTION FOR DUMMIES
On Saturn I played dead at night
Down where land and stars with sea intertwined
With sea intertwined
Come, to satiate the vicious
Come, to please the malicious
Where is that fickle frail smile?
It's gone, lost in space with my ascii text file
Come, ancient spirits through words of blight
Come, creeping virus that ladies love
Sweetly you touched me, you made my days
On dry sand, we were wed
Tighter you held me, then said these words
Now lie down, I'll be right back
On Saturn I played dead again
Down where mind and fingers quiver as one
Quiver as one
Come, to satiate the vicious
Come, to please the malicious
No, the thimble is lost and the shroud
You have undone during nighttimes
Is in a barrel behind the door
You held the home but the wind has changed again
Burn the black sails and the old rotten timber
You'll see the fire
(I'm blocked again, in my own conspiracy
stuck into the unknown, I know she blocked my light
I'm blocked again, in my own conspiracy
stuck into the unknown, I know she blocked my light)
Sweetly you touched me, you made my days
On dry sand, we were wed
Tighter you held me, then said these words
Now lie down, I'll be right back
10. THE GHOST IN ROOM 7
What is this chill I sense on my pale skin?
Why did you come back?
I kept you locked in my best hidden place
Still as I could
But now
That time crosses over
I just realize
That you
Were something more than
Flesh to forget
What do you think about leaving me be?
A marvellous idea
I kept you locked in my best hidden place
Fuck, it hurts bad
My haunted heart
It's my demise
Should I forget or keep it inside?
My haunted heart
This is how it goes
Misspelling the words cos my world is not for you
This time I'm sick of all the ravings that
Spiral upwards
My sane side got stuck in that cold room
Holding me down
My haunted heart
It's my demise
Should I forget or keep it inside?
My haunted heart
This is how I do
Misspelling the words 'cos my world is not for you
But now
That time crosses over
I just realize
That you
Were breaking me down
Since the first day
A restless drive
on desert roads
Avoiding the perils of stormy seas
I came to you
A Saturday
That freezing December that numbed the hearts
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
And you were there
Shape divine
Black hair on black eyes that sparkled dark
With a dreamy air
I followed you
To places of silence that burned the hearts
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
White Venice
You'll waste away in there
It's just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside
So, I'm just going to wait it out, until you say
a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free
From this icy thorny spiral
The blur -
It became so clear in my soul
Slow is the climb over walls
Walls made of tears and adieus
The loss -
It became so clear in my soul
I crack a smile at this joke
Because this life, because this life makes no sense
Godspeed
And when the light fades, lead me astray
Or ghosts will come to me

I kept you locked in my best hidden place
Still as I could
But now
That time crosses over
I just realize
That you
Were something more than
Flesh to forget
What do you think about leaving me be?
A marvellous idea
I kept you locked in my best hidden place
Fuck, it hurts bad
My haunted heart
It's my demise
Should I forget or keep it inside?
My haunted heart
This is how it goes
Misspelling the words cos my world is not for you
This time I'm sick of all the ravings that
Spiral upwards
My sane side got stuck in that cold room
Holding me down
My haunted heart
It's my demise
Should I forget or keep it inside?
My haunted heart
This is how I do
Misspelling the words 'cos my world is not for you
But now
That time crosses over
I just realize
That you
Were breaking me down
Since the first day
