I:Scintilla : Optics
Teksty
1. CURSIVE EVE
You were born wrapped in the pages
The words bind your mind and body
A false comfort of thin paper
You're claimed as unclean property
They say you need guilt to be good
Your brothers all remain blameless
Heart of snares and nets, hands as bands
Classified as a nameless mass
Don't look down on me
I don't look up
Kneel
Here youre not scared to die
Beg
Those dogs will lick and drink you dry
Kneel
Eat the pretty cursive lie
Beg
And you will not be scared to die
They say "In you lives an Eve" and
"Thy desire rules over thee"
"Thou shall not let witches live"
The fiction binds your mind and body
Give you away to male angels
The leaders all remain shameless
Wash away rains ancient marking
Please beg yourself for forgiveness
Must thy sorrow multiply
Thy conception in sorrow
Thou shall live in the silence
With all subjection
He may hear false answers
He lets the voices in
Must thy sorrow follow
Visions in his head
2. TOY SOLDIER
Stand against the sky
Force reasons to die
Till boots come untied
You'll try to believe his lie
Built beyond the archetype
Trick yourself into the fight
The soot and gun hide the night
Convince yourself that it's right
Master warhead puppetry
Undeserving idolatry
Inner circle loyalty
Make them flee their own country
Boy of the surge
Compliance won't make you a man
Now you've deciphered
The secret written in the sand
Now you understand
What rests in your hands
Clear and hold the land
By killing another man
Whose safety do you fight for?
Admit that you can't ignore
You don't trust those keeping score
Write letters to reassure
Gunshot rationality
Just a casual casualty
Just part of the strategy
But you're not setting them free
Sing of fires
Sing of will
Sing to justify to kill
3. THE BELLS
[With a quiet strength behind my heels
I have discovered where footsteps are placed placed among the constellations
I will keep the missing keys and disregard
The staircase, tragedies]
The fade proof lines
That define status and meaning
Are illegible, too thin to read
I've lost radiance
Under petals and softer words
The vine bleeds divine screams
Do your wings make a sound?
Sometimes i swear i can hear them
You left poison mercury dreams
Will you reveal what it means?
Taste the potency
Of your deadened knowledge
The decline through sifting perils
Forces you under
Stretch past the shattered arrows
The vine bleeds divine screams
Do your wings make a sound?
Sometimes i swear i can feel them
The florescent lighting does nothing
To keep you from hiding
[With a quiet strength behind my heels
I have discovered where footsteps are placed placed among the constellations
I will keep the missing keys and disregard
The staircase, tragedies]
Do your wings make a sound?
Sometimes i swear i can hear them
You left poison mercury dreams
Will you reveal what it means?
Do your wings make a sound?
I swear i can hear them
I can feel them
4. MELT
I'm bending the cards of the four cups unfilled
A red cloud has settled over my skin
A cold carnal being, I breathe in your echoes
You're a man incarnate coloring and rolling
Each deep line of your palm runs and wraps around me
A coiling cover, I know what you need
I'm bound by your rhythm, I breathe in your echoes
We melt early winter with the notes we swallow
Lost in small circles
Felt pulses matched
The thin sheets melt
And unravel in your hands
You lift me like a seed; here I break free of form
With rain's ancient mark I'm the girl caught in the storm
It is not forever, but it is in-between
This is where we find the most of our meaning
We feel it in our veins, but it is in-between
The pleasure, the truth and what remains unseen
The mornings early heat burns and tattoos your back
The ink trickling down erases what we lack
5. TRANSLATE
Interlocked, insatiable, unraveled and untwined
All that i have left is what i wish i'd left behind
With ignorance ignored i threw it all away
If only you believed there's more than just today
Longing for those never met
Fallen to a fear far crueler than regret
Through thick layers you will find a way
And punish me for the things i didn't say
A slow beginning ending start with honest intensions
Much colder today find comfort in suspension
To think that i believed
When you walked without conviction
Longing for those never met
Fallen to a fear far crueler than regret
Pierce through stolen velvet
Spare me the last ounce of viciousness
All i have are reasons
To hold to the purity in this
6. SCIN
Uncover the veiled shadows
Let it seep throughout embrace the state
Light through darkness still shines through
Purely easier to let complicate
Revive a dormant spirit
Spill over darkened shades
Under quickness awakened
This balance will never fade
Detach from crippling divisions
Feel outside your skin
Find empowerment and illumination
Taken entirely from within
Amplified in crouching low light
Experience grounds outside yourself
Stand up embrace this night
It still shelters assembled stars
What comes from the source of light
And all that is opposing
Scratches in and breaks down
The torn theme of self-loathing
How much deeper can this reach
Guess it all depends on the source of light
Revive, awaken but we give in tonight
7. MACHINE VISION
Longing for visions, divisions to corrode
Spiritual efficiency to assume control
Songs of confession, repression to the bone
A synchronizing light pulse, a hypnotizing tone
Manipulation
Reduce the noise
Binarization
Fix and destroy
Drowning in the unseen
Scream a selfish warning
By whose grace are you saved?
In the slow degrade
In moral bankruptcy
By whose mercy are you freed?
Hollow chants of the unseen
Won't wipe dirty mouths clean
Steel assembly line, define the others' fate
Blind the believers, a blend of church and state
Who calls upon you, claim they shall be saved
We will all love you conform, submit, behave
Interpretation
A black and white
Examination
Project your light
A nuance detected, burnt hallow overthrown
Myth of light projected, can't erase your own shadow
8. HAVESTAR
Subversive mystics
Taking over you
Spent my self worth
On your unworthy soul
But i will regain the toll
The past is all that remains
Over skies turned black blue and gray
Capture the wreckage that holds strong
To your restrain these words will stain
You said shred
Trust here in now
But i found new eyes to clear
The past is all that remains
Over skies turned black blue and gray
Through a shield of fears
You say return but your hand led me here
Sorry i broke you calm
Over so many storms
But you crawled onto night
So i shine
The past is all that remains
Over skies turned black blue and gray
Capture the wreckage that holds strong
To your restrain these words will stain
9. ULTRAVIOLETFLY
I sense the night bending towards me
The rhythm is slowed but deep
Blackened tips of desire
Cannot keep out of my reach
Orchid covered deadwood breeze
Wakes the sickness from the leaves
I laid back and counted stars
Didn't stop my violent seed
Intoxication pollen
Begins to swim around me
The bitter taste of temptation
Evokes a slow sweet ecstasy
The guilt of self-destruction
Beads up and rolls off of me
And sinks into the earth and
Takes with it my purity
From breaking free
Swallowed down resistance growing from the innate drive to rise
Rise like a street steam night spy mixing with the sky
Ultraviolet
Ghost whispers burning my ears
I'm wrapped in words like wire
Appearing to disappear
Like a small dying fire
My hands shake the sting escapes
Heated hearts must expire
And slowly regenerate
The lust for this peace won't tire
I'm breaking free
Descending from thunder
Fixed in your eyes in mine
Now Let go eternal wanting
And I run into your mind
10. SILHOUETTE
(Instrumental)
11. TAKEN
The answers may lie
In the bullets of a softer kind
They rewind
And conceal ammunition
They say they must lie
Edit mercilessly, cut, take and hide
Expose light
Erase all suspicion
If these illusions fill you
They'll abstract you they will bleed you
Punished for inspection
They keep us blind
What should be protected?
Don't close your eyes
The answers may lie
In the bullets of a softer kind
Cover cries
Defense of the censors
They say they must lie
Edit mercilessly, cut, take and hide
Slice the ties
Blur it all together
If these illusions fill you
They will abstract you the will bleed you
If these delusions fill you
They will dull you the will bleed you
Policing oppositions
Concealing their intensions
12. SALT OF STONES
Senseless steps taken blindly in agony
Grasping for something for air for purity
Words just hanging there like a hook missing bait
I have no pigment to define this shape
The notes of decay
Learned from the mouth of violence
I sang them everyday
Till I became a silence
I say that I am okay
Cut edges and pretend
That I have a heart that I can mend
The hands that used to be a part of me
Were tortured by my demon's destructive needs
From pieces of ruin I will deploy
I'll construct a pretty temple to destroy
