- ...On Lucid Wings
Another desperate night
Another weary fight
Another guardian angel
Vanished in a lake of flames
Another pale grey stream
Another shattered dream
Another voice that whispers
- 1951
There's something cold inside of us.
There's something empty inside out hearts.
The bitter-sweet harmony of gentle crimes.
Can't you see? it's burning.
Afraid of being honest, afraid of showing pride.
The shade of self-deception, it's rising.
A little black devil want's to be free again.
A little black devil yearns for his dignity.
- A Winternight Depression
Fading light - I see the shadows fall.
I hear the darkness sigh.
As it rises from a dead man's pillow.
Taking his last breath to the winds outside.
Threads of moonlight torch the ground.
Show forms a cover of silence.
Candlelight spreads its wings over my soul.
- Abraza la luz
The brain is the seat of madness and delirium.
?Porque has pecado co ese cuchillo en tus manos?
?Porque deberia yo perdonarte la crueldad de tus acciones?
Ahora, cierra tus ojos... (can you feel it?)
?Que sientes? ?Que respiras?
?Abandonas todas las restricciones?
?Que est lo que ves? ?A donde vas? (dejame entrar).
Abrazas la luz. Noche tras noche. Me Soportabas (it was you)
- Along Comes a Fool
Along... along comes a fool.
Hey now, along... along comes a fool.
Prozac-sedatives-silver shot.
Flood your brain, worship the dogs.
Tonight your shivering, filled with ease.
But life goes on the great deceit.
Razors-needles-acid prick.
Free your mind, untie the strings.
- Anima Sola
I'm a sinner but I know
The skin is often harder than the core
I hold on
Contemptousness will follow me...
No more will the glory of grotesque
Adorn your lifeless limbs
Like an eerie arabesque
Locked in you
- As I Breathe The Dawn
Pain over my soul, another morning gleams outside the world
A new day's dew moves in, what do I breathe? What paralyses me?
As I inhale the cold air from the world's lung
I cast my being far away from me
In a crystal sphere on the ground I see my life
On my knees I kiss the death with all her beauty
- Autumn Leaves
Been has her being
Urged to the dwelling of her ancestors
All the long way to their resting place
Now your place, nothing left, no more.
Hungering, your love lies in a coffin
Can see the laughing vault
Rain dripping on darkened woods
- Before Sunrise
Before sunrise
All fears will drown in my eyes
Before sunrise
The earth will devour my cries
And I will feel an ease
I'm godless, I'm blind
I'm the king of depravity
- Dedications
One touch of your hand can open the heavens
abducts me to long forgotten meadows of desire
Strange, I never believed that one glance of eyes
Would be able to touch me inside like yours did
I always thought that something was buried
Long time ago, deep inside...
One touch...
- Demons
Summer has gone and winter is near
If life means hope then hope means fear
Beloved soul...
Enslavement is close at hand
...end... end... end...
Crawl on your knees, little scum
- Fade To Grey
One man on a lonely platform
One case sitting by his side
Two eyes staring cold and silent
Show fear as he turns to hide
Aaah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Aaah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
- Fall Into Oblivion
Downward the shores we pass
Clouds bathed in sombre twilight
Dust beneath our dragging feet
The crumbled shapes of your image
Left behind the dream of a time
That is fading away tirelessly
And paralysed we are
- First winter
"Don`t care. It won`t change anything.
Perhaps I don`t care, but it`s not that easy to be sure
When your laughter still resounds in my ears.
"Don`t care. Today I look at you through other eyes and
More and more it seems to be sure I was blinded.
Verdammtes leiden, saures lieben,
Verdammt das leben, dessen Schem
- Her Last Summer
Light is fading.
And she is anticipating.
The dawn of the age. The dawn of the age.
When she laughs, when she cries, When she looks up in sorrow.
When serenity dies. She longs for the sundown.
Remember when she laughs, when she cries.
Remember her time, She looks up in sorrow,
Remember her time. Serenity dies. Come back again.
- Hide from Me
Why do you hide from me?
What has become of my belief?
Who'll be the one to set me free?
Why do you hide from me?
I saw merciful deceivers in the shadow of death
They cannot break the chains
I saw consecrated mourners in the shape of a cross
- House Of The Rising Sun
[Originaly perfomed by The Animals]
There is a house in New Orleans,
They call the "Rising Sun",
It's been the ruin of many a poor girl,
And me, I know, I'm one.
My mother is a tailor,
- I Am Not Afraid
There's a demon inside of me
It is buried in my heart
It's a need unsatisfied
Right now it's lying in wait
Right now it's tearing me apart
This addiction to delight
When I'm left here all alone
When there's nothing to see
- Kolyma
They pass me when I close my eyes
Ragged lines of ragged grey
Grey their faces, grey their hands
Grey the ghosts that haunt this land
Their pain, it echoes through the hills
Through no one living ever left
This is Kolyma - a graveyard for the lost
- One More Day
Give me one more day. And i'll keep on running.
And i'll keep on hiding. I wish i could have stayed here with you.
I'm on the loose. Looking for the answers.
Looking for the madness. Once again i'll perish in doubt.
Give me one more day... another day... another night.
I'm running-running for cover.
I'm running-far, far away / for my life.
Running faster and faster and faster.
- Passion And Demise
The sweet draught of lick-her (liqour)
Runs gently over my tongue
A feast of wicked pleasure
Is the delight of sweat and blood
The seed of a lost morality
As you sow, so shall you reap
A beast of pray (prey) I am
- Pilgrimage
These days are burning down
Every death is an end in the race
- no arrival
These lives - just ripples
In the stunning widths of space
- slipping away
- Pine Oil Heaven
Sometimes I remember teardrops falling from the sky
Like silent screams of famished memories
Howling in the night
Sometimes I destroy splendour by my own despair
I stay awake 'til morning breaks
Hopelessly gasping for air
- SilverGod
Suburbia being turned upside down.
Our hopes being buried in hallowed ground.
Don't you ever blame me for the fact i was born.
I hear you calling from the other side.
My limbs are bound, i'm filled with fright.
I feel an inner compulsion-demanding restlessly.
Hold me, I crumble... My silvergod (don't leave me alone, i need you)
I swear to you, I'll always need you, always keep you.
- Spleen
Quand le ciel bas et lourd pese comme un couvercle
Sur l'esprit gemissant en proieaux longs ennuis,
Et que de l'horizon embrassant tout le cercle
Il nous verse un jour noir plus triste que les nuits;
Quand la terre est changee en un cachot humide,
Ou l'Esperance, comme une chauve-souris,
S'en va battant les murs de son aile timide
- Stormbirds
Like a storm-driven bird at night
We came flying out of nowhere
And for a moment our wings gleamed
Like gold in the light of fire
And are gone again to the nowhere
The cold grey sea, it waits for me
And the foaming waves call me down
- Suzanne
Release me - don't hide in the shadows all the time
Release me - love me under a bloodred sky
Believe me - devotion purifies your mind
Believe me - leave it all far behind
Suzanne - would you die with me - Suzanne
Suzanne - whatever will be - Suzanne
- The Downfall
The downfall - a pleasure to watch it in your arms
Flaming red inferno, we relish the dying horizon
With fiery thorns in your hands
You strike stakes of lust through my heart
When all around us is lit
Our love will gleam like the vital spark
Into an ocean of reddish tears
- The Flesh Divine
"Man doth not yield him to the angels, nor unto death utterly,
save only through the weakness of his feeble will" -Joseph Glanvill-
Someone told me there is a war within
And the wor (l) d became flesh
Someone told me about a handmade sin
Denying all you once confessed
- The House Of The Rising Sun
There is a house in New Orleans,
they call it Rising Sun.
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
and God, I know I'm one.
My mother was a tailores
sewed my new blue jeans
my father was a gamblin' man
- This Heart
No-one seems to care about.
No-one seems to ask.
Behind this face there's wasted memory.
Caught beneath a mask.
This heart will beat another day.
This heart will lead us both astray.
Believe me... this heart will be silent (come back to me).
For all eternity/for us it's clear to see.
- This Is Not...
When something stains your pride
And leaves you back with despite
Your vain attempts to blank it out
Troubled, in a state of doubt
Both inside and outside
Demons stalk your hide
No chance for you to get away
- Universe
Give me the sleep I need to forget
My pain and my sorrow, my grief and my dept
Give me the sleep I need to forget
Hypocrisy, cruelty, hatred and if
There's someone to hear me - Then answer my cries
And if you are near me - Please drop your disguise
I need to get out, please show me a way
- Untergehen Und Auferstehen
Werde untergehen und auferstehen
Erhalten durch elixiere gemischt aus blut
Wer will mich halten, wer mich toten,
Wer solite sie loschen, meine glut?
Ich spucke feuer aus der tiefe meines
Herzens
Da meine welt zugrunde geht-
- Where No Shadows Fall
In a place where no shadows fall
I will meet you again
Below the moon and the stars
Where it all began
Where no shadows fall
We will meet again
Where no shadows fall
