TO MY ONE SO BEREAVED

(lyrics: McDonald)

Beneath a constellational blanket
The forest echoed with voices of beauty
Our kindred souls, seperate aflame
A lake of euphony when intertwined

Must all our summers end in rain?

My breath was her breath
Her tender caress, my own
Symbiotically we wandered
The orchid-perfumed garden

I could feel her smile as she slumbers
Her kiss from miles afar
Despite her absence, I would be soothed
By the flowing silk of her flesh

Nebular patterns address the eclipsed sun
Can you see the mourning of the dying flame?

And she lay peaceful in my arms
Tears glisten upon her velvet dress
Heaven descends the lake
A bouquet of juniper cringes

Pleasantude taken aback
And replaced twofold by melancholy

Yet I still hear her voice
Comforting me as I weep
Her perfume lingers
Long after she has departed this realm

A soft lamentation is heard
Beckoning me into the forest
A voice of solemn tranquillity
She calls...

SOLITUDE

(Lyrics: Curtis)

In my cell I lie alone
I can't seem to find my way home
I just wander the streets alone at night
And in the day, my mind I fight
I clench my hands, my teeth they grind
No one to love, no friends I find
It's sad, my dog's my only friend
He'll be there when no one's left in the end

No one escapes my mind
I'm pushed away all of the time
I wonder if there's anyone like me?
No one for miles, no one I see
I clench my hands, my teeth they grind
My only friends are in my mind
They've always been there, there the whole time
But my life they drink, they drink like wine

ADVERSARY

(lyrics: Curtis)

Know your adversary
Torture their god
Obey the creator
Enslaved were my people

Control your soul
Deadlock their command
Enslaved were your women
And raped, all your children

Years of eternal suffering
Wasted blood is what I've seen
Loved women lie on the ground
Their husbands lost and never found

BOUND IN BARBED WIRE

(lyrics: Curtis)

I scream in pain and I scream in disgust
I'll die for no one, 'cause in no one I trust
Sickness rolls around in my head
Blackness creates emptiness instead
Never shining light, darkness my mind
The cure for my disease, I'll never find
Existing pain scars my soul
Internal torture has left me unwhole

But now you see, it's not me
I'm now the victim, and the accused one
It lives in my head, rather kill instead
'Cause you don't see what you do to me
I'm now the victim of true insanity

It lets out, that childhood fear
Internal pain that no one is near
A newborn baby's mind has been raped
You enter my world, you'll find there's no escape

INHERITANCE OF DOOM

(Lyrics: McDonald)

Single born child in a palace of gold
Legacy to be the king, father has grown old
Deathbed request, promise to fulfill
Millions of subjects to cater to his will

The king is dead, LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!!

Taste of royalty, loss of freedom
Without morality, growth of boredom
Undesirable urge to see somebody killed

The king is dead, LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!!

Blood stains his hands, INSANITY!!!
Murderous rage, VANITY!!!!
Sickened people, MUTINY!!!
Storm the palace, kill the king, impaled for all to see!!!!

The king is dead, LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!!

THROUGH INDIGO BURNING

(lyrics: McDonald)

And I run
Desperation in my stride
To shed the sorrow
To return to grace

I will run away
For fate is on it's way
Where must I go?
The wind defies what I know
My feet are worn from the stone
I weep in longing to come home

She grants me images of indigo burning
My words tempered by her raging darkness

Pallbearer, the vulture
Bears witness beneath the infernal cosm
No man shall walk eternally
For his destiny is to sleep

Shadows plague the meadow
A dreary moor awaits
We dive the abyss
The blazing sun curls

And to the vast red ocean
A scarlet sanctuary
We dance to the majesty
Of the rising of the moon
