Annihilated

Step in from the brink
But only to look back
That was too easy
There is no challenge worthy
Burning the bridge I stand on
Tear up my map home
Draw a new one on my skin
The remedy is easy
When you have the right recipe
Self destruction, in its most simple form
Ruin my body from inside out
Make the pain in my mind
And in my soul
Visible on my skin
A burning, stabbing in my guts
And a sadness in you as you watch
My beautiful performance made
Especially for none and al

Beautiful Struggle
03:12
|

Looking back, not ever looking in
My mistakes are for others to understand
If I made them it was on purpose
A less for you
What you desereve
Was it worth it?
The pointless struggle
Against yourself
Who are you?
Who am I even talking to?
Find yourself at the bottom of a bottle
At the end of a line
On the edge of a blade
The is revenge unto myself
You cannot be faltered
They are wrong
They are weak
And you are stray
It takes courage to destroy yourself
Mindfulness as a tool
Of annihilation
The beautiful struggle

Starved Lives
04:36

We can last today
But we cant survive this way
Wrinkled and crumpled up
Our bodies will starve
But our mines wont give up
Always aching never breaking
For the lives we are supposed to lead
Resting every night with those
Who are now resting without peace
Circling through my mind
For something I can find
A little piece of the divine
But that’s just a sign of these desperate times
Do we accept our existence like this?
Or do we leave what we once loved behind?
You were the catalyst
But now I let you go
To drift in the universe
In perfect syncronicity, in infinite perfection
Part of everything and intrinsic to nothing
Don’t give in, because they are stronger than you
Go down fighting, they’ll remember the truth

Synchronicity
02:58
|
|||
Calling for a new beginning
Burn the verses of the past
Fight through the ash
Breathe in the embers
They are the resurrection
The fire will light once again
Inside of you
Blow out a new inferno
Nothing can withstand its energy
The cycle will continue
In beautiful and everlasting synchronicity
Enter equilibrium while remaining
At the centre of the universe

Betrayer

Like Lucifer I grew my horns, when I rejected paradise
Damn myself to a life of thorns, then maybe i'd call it even
Not deserving of that life
Bury myself under the smog
Masochistic life of pain
My betrayer
Born with sin
Yours and his
Your god is dead
We have killed him
Just for the sake
Of our selfish thoughts
Everyone born with a sin
It's yours and his
His only son
Punish myself for existing
Create a hell around me
Torture my body
With anything I can find
Close the door behind me

I dragged the body from road to rome
Under the floor boards its carcass resides
Lying in pieces i place you inside
I stretch an image of her on me,
I beg to see that silver light dissipate
That black sermon followed me,
I predicted the most righteous act
I stretch an image of her on me
I pray to see that silver light dissipate
Every day is all the same
It's the same
Cracked ribs, bloodied and broken
The soul will rest so all can see
We're all just begging to be free
Under the floorboards, his body it rests
His body at the rest

Don’t just the perfect life
You cant see what lies behind
The time spent to forge that strength
Beauty exists only through struggle
But mine was not
Plain to the eye
Until I painted
The perfect picture
Pull myself away from heaven
Paint everything black
Grow my horns
Make myself ugly
Paint my skin with maps
Back to the old ways
Disappear forever

Do you hate me?
Trying to find
The purpose of this lesson you have left
Searching in the dark corners of my mind
To wander forlorne, is my future
Dedicate my life to find absolution
Losing the ghost inside me
Leave me to endlessly ask
The question why
What is the point of living now
Do you hate me?
I still feel you next to me.

Victorious, Neverending
02:54
|
|||
I felt like I was the one who should fix everything
The impossible weight of my conviction
Crushing my feeble shoulders
There was nothing to be done but I struggled on
Scratching and clawing myself out of the hole
Gasping for air in the midst of the black smog
The curse of the dreamer.
The torment of hope
Its much easier to fall back with your eyes closed.
Victory is never painless
Obstruction to the path leads to the new path
Find the route to glory
You cant stray if there is no defined way
Create your own morality
Only you can judge yourself

Just because we know we exist
Doesn’t lift us from the ranks of the beasts
Fighting a constant and bitter battle
With our own, overblown egos
Pointless existence
Self awareness is an illness
This merciless curse
That both frees us from ignorance
But shackles us to the
Constant contemplation of our
Pointless existence
What is man to the ape
Man is the most primitive
He does not know his place
Man exists only as a bridge
To the ubermensch
Pointless existence
Futile efforts
To bring meaning
To this empty life
True strength
Comes from facing
The truth behind their lies
My spirit will burst the shackles on my mind
And rip through the decay of form
You are not my audience
The words of the ubermensch
I will release myself from the burden
Of this life

Portrait
05:29
|

The smell of cold, scent of the rain
Always that lingering feeling
I will see you again
My dreams are like torture
Every night the same
You running away from me
Like some kind of game
Alone I am standing in a crowded place
When over in the distance, I see your face
Come back
Dreams are all we have together now
So why do you run from me?
Its getting hard to bare when im awake
In a frantic panic I slip through the swelling mass
Why must you run from me, everytime this dream so crass
You said we’d be together till the bitter end
Remember our sacred pact?
That promise you did not defend.

Through The Trees
05:22

Beautiful shimmering light
Bursting through the trees
Beckoning me forward
Into woods I have not seen
Don’t look down, that’s way they say
But these cracks say they know me
If I'd known, I'd have been
A different person
I wouldn’t be covered in scars
Or I wouldn’t have to show them
I wouldn’t show my scars
I could move on with life
Without straying I follow on
Never looking back
My life layed out before me
As I walk between the cracks
The dark is full of wonder
As it creeps to shroud the light
But it doesn’t have the strength
To beat me as I fight
This never ending battle
Of me against myself
Live to fight another day
Or stand and face this hell
Shimmering light
