Expected To Heal

Full moon stares at me
from the ceiling
Shadows are sucking
at my breath

Mind mumbles
in its hibernated halfworld
Love and life grow cold
foretold of their death

Loneliness is full of echoes
distant calls
You know you're lost
when they're coming
out of the walls

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
They'll get inside you
they'll drive you insane

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
They'll make you reach
your final breaking strain

Wingbeat, heartbeat
the rhythms are alike
Loe one, flutter, stop
and down you go

The jar that holds
this God created spirit
breaks if you bring
its host too low

Loneliness is full of echoes
distant calls
You know you're lost
when they're coming
out of the walls

The sunken stare in their eyes
hollow and blind
Faces with no expression
always leering once behind

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
They'll get inside you
they'll drive you insane

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
They'll make you reach
your final breaking strain

It's not the years
that wear you down
You grow old by
what they contain

If you choose to bleed
the last laugh is on you
Mocking you
to the oblivion
The angels of pain

Sometimes
I get compelled by the mirrors
To see the image
of what might have been

Hours turn to eons
I dare not to blink my eye
Haunted face of myself
is all that I've seen

The message brought home
is not gentle "father to son"
They throw the revelations
like bullts from a gun

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
They'll get inside you
they'll drive you insane

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
They'll make you reach
your final breaking strain

Angels of pain
you'll fight in vain
Between me and you
they'll drive you insane

Angels of pain you'll fight in vain

They'll make you reach
your final breaking strain
They will drive you insane
They'll never leave
the angels of pain

Sleepless

Tonight the wind comes from afar
with a distant call
Scent of valleys and fields
in early fall
There's ache in my heart
a mystery deep within the bones
She lays beside me asleep
She sometimes softly moans

Everything I do, every word I say
they're solid by the light of day
The night fills with dreams
I wish them real
There is no deeper way to feel
Oh, to feel

Does she understand
if I'm distant and feeling lost
Hiding inside one's self
is not dishonest
My fingers are not crossed
sometimes I don't feel
as good or strong
as I would like to be
I'd bring peace to her heart
if I could find some also for me

Everything I do, every word I say
they're solid by the light of day
The night fills with dreams
I wish them real
There is no deeper way to feel

Ooh...

Tonight the wind comes from afar

The Teeth

It's no surprise
There'll be murder to my name
I'm disgusted at the naivety
Of another man's blues
I'm tempered
By the force of hatred
My brain floats in quicksilver
Dagger of migraine for a fuse

Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
All I can feel, my teeth

Mountains
Have been raised against me
I'm a shooting star
On a collision course
Nothing will stand
The impact of my speed
Multiply destruction
To the degree
I'm the source

Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
All I can feel, my teeth

Educated through the years
Attitudes moralized and set
The time goes by
Waiting for the dreams
You haven't had yet
All the while the sanity drains out
From the balls of your feet
There's nothing left but hunger
And this world you're forced to eat

Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within

Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
All I can feel, my teeth

For The Glory Of Nothing (1998)



Crawlspace

blood is thicker than water but nothing beats oil
take the torch to the oil and let the blood boil
take a look at the sorry state of this place, what is it coming to
but don't dare look down on me, I've got it in for you
crawlspace, we've gotta stand up
crawlspace, the only thing we've got is just
crawlspace, we could use some help
crawlspace, help doesn't come cheap these days
walk face down through the future warxone
the Russian mob is bringing lead to the bone
there's racist vigilante, he's on his kicking crusade
the Chinese will eat the world unless he gets a switchblade

Warhead

the pround son of proud fathers, the feared and fearless me
soldier of harmageddon, I was born to fly free
now they see a wasted resource, I'm banished, I'm scorned
lonely in my rusty shell a restless mind hellspawned
warhead...
they've marched with banners and they've torn down the wall
onware to new tomorrow, it illuminates them all
I was left anone to sulk in ther rift they had to heal
forgotten threat still lives on in this body of steel
warhead...
they say they'll make a deal, trying to pull the very last fang
they think that I'm asleep but I'm ready to make a bang
they thought to guar against the coming of the judgement day
I'll just say let there be light and there'll be hell to pay
warhead...
nothing really maters now, the weak they just complain
do they thin their lives somehow have any worth to gain?
naked in the blast like flies, they'll leave an oily stain
ashes will be washed away in this all consuming rain.

I'm Here

Breat of living, heart punding, poison stinging
tiny voices, wrong choises, blood starts singing
I never had anything to lose, no touch, nor taste
my body is here for abuse, braincells for waste
sirens calling, walls falling, fists bleeding
bones cracking, scent tracking, the void is feeding
the last of me is about to go, basic primality
putting up one hell of a show, they will remember me
I'm here, this terminal case of lust upholds this prison of dust
I'm here, the sexiest god is pain, just gimme the ball and chain
I'm here, falling pround and tall on my face, reaching grace within disgrace
I'm here, at the frontline of fools, share my flesh before it cools
I'm here

Shining Black

I've been fasting face to the dawn
from the desert of thoughs only prayers will cary on
I've been waiting knees in the sand
will there be time enough for me to understand?
I've been breathing the air of high pass
the cold reaches into my bones turning me to glass
I've been bleeding but the cup's not filled
I hope to see into it now, see my heart stilled
far and away from here I'd lie down to find some rest
something whispers in my ear, the hurt has found a place to nest
shining black... I see you now
shining black... you're made of steel
shining black...
I've been fighting the worm of despair
the hollowed me is losing strength, maybe I don't care
the demon whispers in my ear the hurt has found a home here
shining black?

Beoynd Troy

Blind, searching the dark, stand, pray and leap
watch, not with your eyes, the creatures of the deep
sail, the waters are black, don't rock the boat
cry the unseen away 'til it breaks your throat
inside a dream is where we find each other
I'll follow the scent of your need
there, a crack in the sky, whiteness ablaze
god of thunder, he rides to impale us with his gaze
inside the storm are the hounds of the father
they will find your scent if you bleed
the children of love torn asunder...
heaves ring, the seas cry
there are things trying to pull us under...
just find your wings and fly
fly to me, I'm your faithful defender...
heavens ring, the seas cry
my wounds are yours to tender...
just find your wings and fly
fly to me
inside the soft flame of our desire
I'll follow the some to your fire

Dark Star Burning

space, time and rocketjuice, suck at the bittersweet taste
light, sound, they mutate, paradoxic waste
face, grime, the ingrained humor, the black laughter drowns it all
flight, bound for event horizont, head on to the fall
got a crush on you
you'll do some time here
I will pull you through and hold you near
love binds all, it's true
I'm a dark star burning
blue sky, endless spiral, get dizzy, it's all right
these ways of your flesh are too small and thight
you, the final joining, never need another one
crashrace into the heart of the eclipsed sun
