Floor it
Into the marsh
Chastised
For the last time
Stay on
The drugs
Stay on
The drugs
Spinning of the wheels
Into the ground
Mercy I know not
For my self
I offer you
The wind from my lungs
I give to you
The river in my veins
Supplicate and turn anew
Masturbate and cum on the few
A vision of death
Rise up
Break down
Get head
You're wet
I'm flushed
The dead wood
Lucifer
A cold reminder
Of what I wanted
To be
A dead god
Apothecary
Hope to be
Fallen grace
My mistake
I thought you were some one else
Day time
All's fine
Carpe diem
Jadified
Created anew
Scorched
Bled out
You're not good enough
No one's good enough
Never attain
What's deserved
See the old ones
Feel their ego
Single arrogance
I hate life
Death
Comes
To All
Judas
Iscariot
Truest
of Humans
Living
Between the
Divide
Between
Black and
White and
Searching
For the
Inevitable
Doom of
His life
In his time
Judas
Judas
Hear us
Judas
There is no choice
Forced to live
By the rules of another
Sacrifice the will
And repeat myself
Hope someone hears this
before I die
I fear what I love
And seek only for the romantic

Electric Temple

Make someone feel pain and you have absolute control
Cursed with memories that are not my own
The excuses stay the same
Thrust in the spotlight, forced to end the show
So many people that I'll never know
Mercy upon the unbelievers – Those who lost faith
Feel the needles touch the bone
The metal surge in veins
As one becomes two
Waiting as life passes and as love fades
Waiting for the window of the soul to reopen
Closed as a nightmare ends the dream
I have no worries if I'll ever be the same
Waiting as life passes and as love fades
Waiting for the window of the soul to reopen
Closed as a nightmare ends the dream
I have to wonder if I'll ever be the same
Light of my life, light of my death
Light the walker who gets misused
Message in stone awakes intelligence
Mnemonic chapter of destiny ascends
I am immortal, I am end of the earth
I am the beginning of a new way of life
Rearrange the stone into electric temple
Worshiping the light in electron tube
Electric Temple
Electric Temple
Electric Temple
Electric Temple
Kissing the stone I awaken a God
Wishing that I could become his food
Temple of the thunder God leads me to home
Prolong the mystery, keep them consumed
Electric Temple
Electric Temple
Electric Temple
Electric Temple
Compromising sanity
Forsaking will to be
Running circles in my head
Hoping God will strike me dead
Circumvent the expose
Of my life’s malady
We all die in harmony
With the birth of surroundings
I am never
Leaving home again
Not when all that's outside
Is bloody with the mask of vengeance
Ready to die for another,
But unwilling to save themselves
Electric Temple
I have never seen so many useless faces
Gathered in one place
Kissing each others wounds
As they chase their own tails
Right
Become one
With the lie
Missing pieces in hearts due to broken psychology
Find meaning in pity
Justify moral grounds with forced ego
The cycle of deterioration continues
Right
Become one
With the lie
Faking an orgasm
Prolonging the illusion of life
Hundreds of forgeries of the human race
More genuine than what is real
Walking through the temple the worshipers grab my clothes
Punished for the harshness of their throes
Sanctified as a prophet
Take the moon as my sign
Symbol of resurrection
A deathblow to the human psyche
Muezzin cries in the middle of the night
Muezzin cries at the womb of the acolyte
Sanctified
Sanctified

You never worshiped no one

I'll always return here
When I have lost my way
Harbinger of your delight
Fantastic opera plays in my mind
The curtain splits –
final call to all actors
Tighten their belts and build up confidence
Enter the gorgeous egg-shaped chapel of eyes
Weaving canvas into clay
Speaking of what we became
Writing our - own – epilogue
Dividing – a universe
The peace begets destruction
The horror was never a lie
Wandering
Summoning
A new form
Of thinking
Realized
Devastate
Court of eyes
judging me
I'm a hate
designate
What you do
When you choose
To misguide
For the sake
of the state
Miserable
I'll always return here
When I have lost my way
Harbinger of your delight
Fantastic opera plays in my mind
Born asleep
Die awake
Watch as they use and abuse and destroy themselves
Watch as they hurt and desert and defile the youth
Watch as they run and mistrust and they learn so slow
Hear as they cry and then die and then turn their backs
Watch as they hang and they shoot and they throw it all
Into the dirt in the earth and they mourn the loss
Of the things they deserved as they squandered
This is the court - the court - the court of eyes

No one ever heard his name
No one ever heard his name
No one ever seen his face

Dead Star
11:45
|

Ancient battlefield for woman and man
Destroyed battleship carcass forms the land
False star
Black moon
Anti-light
Dead star
Dark moon
False-light
The screeching sounds of dismemberment
Conversion into clay
The smoke-filled sky lights up and solidifies
Into noxious mass
The derelict spaceport
Forgotten by time
The negative space
Conquered in neutron blast
Belligerent cyborg
Given to a task
Expected to comply
But never to ask back
Heinous judges
Produce a sentence
Hideous dogs
carry out the sequence
Sordid dust surrounds the toxic husk
Bodies converted into energy-waste
Now a tomb for the young nihilists
Come to celebrate destruction
Once the light of generations
Now a tomb of devastation
Sorrow-clouds eek up mile-high chimneys
Infecting misguided visitors
Causing suicide
Deep in its core
The dark judges wait
Engineering Sol's destruction
Held in neuro-sympathetic-symbiosis
Aided via theta waves
By the most powerful computer ever built
Before they were outlawed
Find a way to undo their mistake
Pay the penance for their crime
Death trap
Dead star
Misguided youth
Dark judges
False light
Take the night away
The instrument pierces soundless void
As all chimneys fire in synchronous
Dead bodies eject and the star
Lights a last time
False light – judge's plan
Atomic collisions and twisted circuitry
Many thousand miles of exposed steel
Black moon is pulled from orbit
Tension builds as it pushes through Sol's gravitonic belt
The guiltless moon that gave balance brings destruction
Violent windstorm cuts off my sight-sensors
And in the eternity of time I'll find a meaning
And as the old ones go blind I'll see again
As the oceans turn red and the sky turns black
And as the illusion unwinds I'll lead instead into the new universe
