1. 3 A.M.

I can find no sleep
I never sleep at night
I stop counting sheep
I can see their eyes

And the lights will shine tonight

A fly’s been watching me
A million dogs arrive
Some will cover me
Some choose to bite

And the lights will shine tonight
And the lights will shine tonight

Then I will come to life
Then I will come to life

Won’t you come with me
I can ease your mind
Dreams, thoughts, fantasies
Keep rushing by

And the lights will shine tonight

I can find no sleep
I never sleep at night
All those pretty sheep
Sit mesmerized

And the lights will shine tonight
And the lights will shine tonight

Then I will come to life
I can guarantee that
Then I will come to life

Then I will come to life
I can guarantee that
Then I will come to life


2. NEVER

You are so fixed with yourself
That you can’t behold your life passing you by
Wake up brisk before your vanity breaks you
Open your eyes while you still can

When you need me just before the memory
Hear my voice coming through your mind
When you need me just before the memory
Hear my voice coming through your mind

Your friends suffocated by your ego
Your siblings haven’t known you for a long time
Even death refuses to thread on your doorstep
Ensued the false passage all your life

When you need me just before the memory
Hear my voice coming through your mind
When you need me just before the memory
Hear my voice coming through your mind

Have no respect for life
Have no reverence for death
Mercy, a word used by losers
Pain and sorrow, gifts from heaven
Never will you love
Never will you live

When you need me just before the memory
Hear my voice coming through your mind
When you need me just before the memory
Hear my voice coming through your mind


3. UNDER YOUR WINGS AND INTO YOUR ARMS

I need to see a sign
Will you take me away?
They come, they go
Will you stay here?
I need, I need to see a sign

You need me
Who wants more?
I need him to find my way

Be there now
Feel them
Be my call

I will want
I lose the fight
You sing the songs of 100 nights

Bring them to me
Because I know I’m right
And I will take them all away
Never to be seen again

I’ll take them to the sea
Leave it all to me because
I’m feverish, devilish & irrelevant

You need me
I want you
I need, I need, I need, I need
Are you there with me?

Be there now
Feel me now
All my world


4. CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE

I see my ugly face
Staring back from broken glass
I see my pain staring back at me
Inside my secret place in the dark
I hide from you in my dreams
I pay you back with pain

The monkey on your back haunted you
We covered it up twisting
Tangling in the spider’s web
We never said a word no one knew
What we went through
All the children hid in their own shame

No more lies
Light a candle in the darkest cave
Misery
Tears flow when the silence breaks
Waves of grief
Sharp nails in unhealed wounds
Conspiracy of silence
...of silence

We hated to love you
But we did right to the end
When the demon took your life away
The silence was a lie
Now it falls into the light
It hurts so much but this has to be

No more lies
Light a candle in the darkest cave
Misery
Tears flow when the silence breaks
Waves of grief
Sharp nails in unhealed wounds
Conspiracy of silence


5. YOUR SWEET SIX SIX SIX

There are things you should know
The distance between us seems to grow
But you’re holding on strong
Oh, how hard it’s to let go
Oh, so hard to let go

I’m waiting for your call
And I’m ready to take your six six six in my heart

I’m longing for your touch
And I welcome your sweet six six six in my heart

I’m losing my faith in you
You don’t want it to be true
But there’s nothing you can do
There’s nothing you can do
Yes, I’ve lost my faith in you

I’m waiting for your call
And I’m ready to take your six six six in my heart

I’m longing for your touch
And I welcome your sweet six six six in my heart

How long we have to wait
For love is fading so slowly
I know it’s too late
Oh my god! You’re so lonely!

I’m waiting for your call
And I’m ready to take your six six six in my heart
I’m longing for your touch
And I welcome your sweet six six six in my heart
I’m ready for your call
And I’m ready to take your six six six in my heart
I’m longing for your touch
And I welcome your sweet six six six in my heart
In my heart
In my heart
In my heart


6. BRING ME DOWN

(Lyrics excerpt only)

Bring me down to the ground
Bring me down
Down to the ground
Bring me down to the ground
Bring me down
Down to the ground

I’ll set me free from all my pain
Ecstatic maladies tonight
I’ll kill you without fright
The harvest will be done


7. RAVEN CLAWS

Raven, Raven
On and on with her raven claws
Craving, craving
On and on with her raven claws

How she lusts when she remembers
The night of her first blow
She always wanted to know
How far could she really go

Inflamed, a dead-end room
Seduce to consume
Nightsilence, Vampire, Empire
Statues with open wounds

The flavour of poison and moon
Still maturing on her blood
She is not your occasional affair, no!
But eternal love, drop by drop...

Raven, Raven
On and on with her raven claws
Craving, craving
On and on with her raven claws

How daylight hurts when moonlight bites
She juggles with her invisible knife
A black bird senses danger and flies
Gives peace to a tall figure in the dark

Little silhouette snakes find
A warm nest behind the door
And whip-tongues and skins
Of sisters now gone

Bodyprints cover the velvet floor
Which grows red and red
They know she will hunt and hurt tonight
And they crown her Queen of the Dead

Raven, Raven
On and on with her raven claws
Craving, craving
On and on with her raven claws

Will she weep for them
Or whip them once again?
Will she weep for them
Or whip them once again?


8. SALVATION

Deep shadows above the black-blue sea
The eyes of the storm are watching me
A murderous silence is gasping for air
Dark clouds are resting, can’t flee

I see my breath, it’s cold and clear
My eyes show emptiness, not fear
I feel the hungry sea around
I slip into the muddy ground

The silence is like a brother to me
It gives me sense behind my mind
I feel the hands of silence and peace
Salvation makes me blind

I see my breath, it’s cold and clear
My eyes show emptiness, not fear
I feel the hungry sea around
I slip into the muddy ground

I see my breath...it’s cold and clear
My eyes show emptiness...not fear
I feel the hungry sea...around my feet
I slip into this...this muddy street

Deep shadows above the black-blue sea
The eyes of the storm are watching me
A murderous silence is gasping for air
Dark clouds are resting, can’t flee

I see my breath, it’s cold and clear
My eyes show emptiness, not fear
I feel the hungry sea around
I slip into the muddy ground


9. CRUELTY BROUGHT THEE ORCHIDS

“Hear me now!
Oh, crime she be treasure revail will be pleasure somehow...”

Maleficent in dusky rose
Gathered satin lapped Her breasts
Like blood upon the snow
A tourniquet of Topaz
Glistened at Her throat

Awakening, pulled from the tomb
Her spirit freed eclipsed the moon
That She outshone as a fallen star
A regal ornament from a far flung nebular

Her likeness hung in the black gallery
Commanding unease
Demanding of Death to breathe...

Midst the whirl and daylight fauna of society at court
Elizabeth bedazzled, Her presence sought applause
Though Her torchlit shadow thrown upon damp cellar walls
Greeted nothing but despair from slaves Her nights enthralled

Thirteen winter solstices had shown Her path
That the dark had marked its dominion
Spaying the confessor Whose caresses she’d known
As whipcord in the House of Dog
Her cold cunt meat on holy bone

Raped of faith, She now embraced
The narcissistic unrest frozen on the mirror’s face
With this disdain, inside these veins
(Highborn wanton that She was)
She sought to keep what age would claim
Her soul was sold and for this toll
Reeking pyres ever smouldered
On the whims of one so in control
Elizabeth, mysterious
Cruelty brought thee orchids
From the bowels of the abyss

Once upon atrocity when midwitches stifled cries
And carved abortive runes in reddened wombs
Exhumed by scrying eyes
Madness came upon Her like an amourous lover’s seed
Lifesblood splashed upon Her skin
In gouts torture unleashed

And to Her dead reflection ‘twas as if Her pallor gleamed
Like an angel’s warmed by candles where erotic stains had cleaved
So demons dragged this libertine, lusts screaming for release
Upon the flesh of maidens preened as canvas for caprice

Exacting obeisance, Her gaze held a seance
Of spirits too trapped under glass to commune
A sleeter mistress than Luna whose threats to consume Her
Met with torments giving vent to Her swoon

Flat on Her back, pack-prey for the reams
Of verses and curses that haunted Her dreams
Midnightmare chimed, thirteen in Her mind
A disciple of scars branded years hissed behind
Ridden split-thighed by the Father of lies
An ovation of wolves blushed the skies as they writhed

But Heaven is never forever
She came, a spent storm from the clouds...

Leaving serpents in office inside every gate
To lick righteous holes, blinding Lords to the fate
Of virgins forced naked to defile on rent knees
Hacked and racked backwards, menses choking their pleas

“More, whore, more!
Twitching make me wet
With thee carcass rub me raw!”

And to Her dead reflection ‘twas as if Her pallor gleamed
Like an angel’s warmed by candles where erotic stains had cleaved
So demons dragged this libertine, lusts screaming for release
Upon the flesh of maidens preened as canvas for caprice

Cruelty brought thee orchids
Cruelty brought thee orchids
Cruelty brought thee orchids

Raped of faith, She now embraced
The narcissistic unrest frozen on the mirror’s face
With this disdain, inside these veins
(Highborn wanton that She was)
She sought to keep what age would claim
Her soul was sold and for this toll
Reeking pyres ever smouldered
On the whims of one so in control
Elizabeth, mysterious
Cruelty brought thee orchids
From the bowels of the abyss

From the bowels of the abyss!


10. GIVE ME LIGHT

The birds love in the shade
Sweet smiles the night
All creations slept and smiled
Never will it be

Give me light
Give me pride
Beam on me

Give me light
Give me pride
Beam on me

Away the vapour flew
Shining beams of love
Sweet dreams, pleasant beams
But I’m bereaved of light

Give me light
Give me pride
Beam on me

Give me light
Give me pride
Beam on me

Angels in the sky
They give me light
They beam forth brightness on a darkened world

A holy angel that guards my bed
Reach me your mighty hand
I can’t choose but grief destroys

The birds love in the shade
Sweet smiles the night
All creations slept and smiled
Never will it be

I gave my heart away
(Heart away)
Weeping tears on infant’s tear
(Infant’s tear)
Sweet dreams form a shade
(Form a shade)
Happy silent moony beams!

Heart away
Infant’s tear
Form a shade...

I gave my heart away
(Heart away)
Weeping tears on infant’s tear
(Infant’s tear)
Sweet dreams form a shade
(Form a shade)
Happy silent moony beams!


11. THE INSIGHT AND THE CAHARSIS

Passenger on confessional course
Unlock with the key you behold within
Repair the shadow of your mind
And come awake...

“Oh, dreadful angel of mine
Enrich me with the vastness of the being...

Rigid father
Teach me to comprehend
I’ll commit myself to understand
To be the faithful and the instrument
So that the ones with blindfold
Can see what I have seen...

That there is nothing in between
For I am the accomplice...”

Aghast and tender
Indulged in sin
Embraced by loneliness
Legions who grin

I blunder into the realms of slumber
I collide with the obscure
And see the last fraction of light go by

Plundering the sanity from the insane
Providing appearances in black
Carefully swept in decadent spheres
Faces in this world always remain darkened

In circles of dominance
Emotional deeps unite
Fiction and transcendence woven together
In the essence of purity lies wisdom
Join the forces
The Spiritual Black Dimensions!

What more do you need of proof
Human hands conforming clooven hoofs
For I know the secrets and lies behind all truths

Knowledge is power and the power is mine
It’s all mine!

So let the children come to me
And share the limitless ways to infinity
Escape death and disease
And behold youth and vitality

“Oh, dreadful angel of mine
Enrich me with the vastness of the being...”

“Rigid father, teach me to comprehend
I’ll commit myself to understand”


12. EMPTY

Empty vessel under the sun
Wipe the dust from my face
Another morning black sunday
Coming down again

I’m coming down again

Empty vessel, empty veins
Empty bottle wish for rain
That pain again
Wash the blood off my face
The pulse from my brain
That pain again

And I feel that pain again!

I’m looking over my shoulder
‘Cause millions will whisper
I’m killing myself again

Maybe I’m dying faster
But nothing ever last
I remember a night from my past
When I was stabbed in the back
And it’s all coming back
And I feel that pain again

I abhor you, I condemn you
‘Cause this pain will never end
You got away without a scratch
And now you’re walking on a lucky path

I have to laugh
But you’d better watch your back!

There’s pathetic opposition
They’re the cause of my condition
I’ll be coming back for them

I’ve a solution for this sad situation
Nothing left but to kill myself again
Because I’m so empty


13. THE SEVENTH DAEMONARCH

Burn!

Arisen by a silver sword
That lost its battle shine
As I walk into the gate
I left that world behind

My Father awakes me with his call
Rotten, vile, human pride
Knowing better than I
With my arrival the Earth shall die

The legions scream, that was a day
My swords fell on them a thousand times
I was dealt with by fire
And with fire I shall depart

Left in the deep, my soul will
Always breathe and feel in the deep

Arisen in my Father’s womb
Life sustain me for his might
Flames are flames, they are to hurt
Flames still flames, they are to hurt

No one can ever imagine
His flames embrace all Earth and sky
But you are drowning in fire
Through our invisible hearts

I am immortal
I cannot die
So heed me, Father
Your heart is mine!

I am immortal
I cannot die
So heed me, Father
Your heart is mine!

Tears run down my closed eyes
And all that fire burning inside
The pierced tears add time for soul
I shall await for the next to go

“Goodbye, my soul has given to you and the strong shall be weak
The blood of my world awaits in your grace
Hear me, my beloved son, I cannot teach you any further”

A new aeon has begun
You’re the next to rise
The Earth’s Son

A new aeon has begun
You’re the next to rise
The Earth’s Son


14. DAYS OF SODOM

Come alone
Horrid eyes!
Bone from bone
Sigh to sigh!
In all dying there is a certain beauty

Come alone
Horrid eyes!
Bone from bone
Sigh to sigh!
In all dying there is a certain beauty

Come alone
Horrid eyes!
Bone from bone
Sigh to sigh!
In all dying there is a certain beauty

Come alone
Horrid eyes!
Bone from bone
Sigh to sigh!
In all dying there is a certain beauty

To travel the seas of temptation
And the velvet skies of pain
Sodomize the sacred
In the velvet skies of pain

Lightning the fuse of death
We march towards the twilight
In Apocalypse and pain
Never to see the light of day
Again!

Come alone
Horrid eyes!
Bone from bone
Sigh to sigh!
In all dying there is a certain beauty

Come alone
Horrid eyes!
Bone from bone
Sigh to sigh!
In all dying there is a certain beauty

And when the birds of burning flesh return
You shall arise from the ashes as gods
And burn and burn...
