1. SELFLESS

The bars within your mind
And you learn the fear
Windows sealed with tragedy
Keep the daylight out
And me further from you

Free your mind
And release the bird that once was free and beautiful
Open your eyes
Nothing here to hurt you
Free my mind
And bring the salvation in the shape of life
Just please don't give it up
Too much to give, and even more to get

Were the flowers too beautiful
For you to touch them or even look?
And did the sun rise too early?
Painting the sky dark, deep red
Red is my dawn

And when the voices are getting louder
I can hardly hear you breathing
Was it this world that made you
So fragile and empty inside?
Such a beautiful mind
So pure, you couldn't take it
I will hold my breath and sky is further than ever

Just don't give up


2. FRAGRANCE

Hear the voices
Bodies' noises
Lovers' choices
Echos of nothing, intruders
Significant silence

Distinct in the quiet world
We set sails
On windless nights
When the air is pregnant
With a fragrance of madness

The air here is still
The pressure on time increasing
All this weighs down on us
Clouds woven of nothing

Yet with threat and weight they float about
Trapped automata
And an instant has expired

And the silence is disturbed
And I feel life emerge, immense
Slowly raindrops falling pale of winter
Painted
Painted green
Dream tonight a thousand dreams
Of a dance on moonbeams
A thousand raindrops falling
Break the surface of the "real"
Dissolved in the texture

And the surface never heals


3. NEUROPATH

A rise without me
Coming on in some faces
Some hearts feed together
Broken bones will never heal
Lost blood is lost in fever
It could've been worse
All the lungs suffer
Breathing
Eating
Sleeping
Feeling

All is waste, waste of air
All is waste, waste of food
All is waste, waste of illusion
All is waste, waste of diffusion
All is waste, waste of despair
All is waste, waste we share
All is waste, waste of words
All is waste, waste for herds

There was someone here
In the shadows
They wouldn't believe
It ate into my thighs
Who drinks now from my eyes

There is always someone here
To take always someone too weak
I am not asking
Disappointment is acceptance

5. GLASS-CUTTER'S DREAM

Sharp being
A clear lookin´-glass
Warped existence in fables
Sounds and sights
Through mist upon self
A dinner is set on the table
Is there someone here then?
Where is this, when?

Lost in words tongue's not sound
This my house yours to keep
The walls are too deep
Death's but a surface sleep

Blunt teeth
Glass-cutter's dream
Wrapped a paper 'round the garden
Spilt voices
Through smoke and steam
Dinner still set on the table
Is there someone here, now?
When is now, how?

Lost in taste throat does so well
Swollen meanless anger
The windows too steep
Death's but a surface sleep

Sat watching
Into clear looking-glass
In warped existence through fables

Sounds and sights
Through smoke and steam
The dinner got cold on the table

Inside this empty meaning lost
Glass-cutter's dream now found
Through here smoke and steam
Death's but a surface sleep


6. SECOND SUN

Rise with me Gaia
For I am on thee enjoined
Show me the absolution of our only god

Blessed Cyprides!
Blessed Aphrodite!

Lo! grimed Apollon
at last hast thou set in river Styx
I with Gaia rise to celebrate thou art gone

A second one
Shall rise
A second sun
Our sained child

Gaia!? Gaia!!
Where hast thou gone?
To invoke erinnyes
To tear my pride from thy womb
What hast thou done?
Risen against me
An equal to gods!
Destroyed my son
Why?

I have spoken to my king
And I have spoken to my neighbour
They have cast me in exile
To mend a broken promise made

I have descended the Pluto's trail
To ask me back my child
I've dived to Neptune's hides
To ask my for a godbegotten wife
And they have answered me:
"Nay, thy pride was but your own mistake"
And I wander, an exile
Until I beget Apollon’s like

And under the stars I let crushing silence overcome
