Drown
03:26
|
|||
Deep beneath the waves of sorrow
You wish to scream your lungs out
In deep depression you are drowning
But no sound comes from your mouth
And I see your smile
Silently fading away
Submersing in the murky
Waters of your woe
Forsaken piece of human shade
You don't wish to be saved
The only thought that's left alive
Are creeping visions of the grave
And I see your smile
Silently fading away
No mortal man can defy the raging waves of the sea
And when you feel the end is nigh, to set yourself forever free
Bereft of hope and with no fear, let go all that you hold dear
Descend to darkness, deeper down, embrace your fate and drown
And I see your smile
Silently fading away
Submersing in the murky
Waters of your woe
And I see your face
Has turned bleak and gray
Drowning in the murky
Waters of your woe

The Road To Perdition
08:39
|
|||
Obey the simplest instinct
Smother their dreams to sustain your life
Then scorch the earth beneath their feet
Remain deaf to their plea
Feed on their cries, weed out the weak
The nameless mass left will venerate
High on power and greed
Entomb the ones who dare to oppose
Then tear apart another worthless life
The sorrow you bring cuts deep like a knife
By demons driven your rage can't be tamed
From feelings bereaved your spirit suppressed
Embraced this perdition road until the end of days
You have become the cruel one doomed to annihilate
Your righteousness confined by a veil of lies
But finally time will come to taste your own demise
Confront and suffocate
The last shard of your broken self
A soul depraved, an aberration
Abandoned forever, the past days you yearn
Your heart is a hollow somber nocturne
And even God has left you
Embraced this perdition road until the end of days
You have become the cruel one doomed to annihilate
Your righteousness confined by a veil of lies
But finally time will come to taste your own demise

The Misanthrope
11:53
|

Failure
Such a shame
Contaminating the air I breathe
Dispersing like a virus
Miserable pile of excrements
Enslaved by their passion
Deprived of purpose
Hate inflaming my lungs
The world burns
In my contempt
And as I watch your spirits crumble
I shall feast on your despair
From your downfall I will rise
Gratification in hatred and disgust
Intoxicated
By the concept of your own eminence
Vomit is all that comes
From your foul mouth
Putting an end to this agony
Would always be too late
Your atrocious being
Was never meant to last
And as I watch your spirits crumble
I shall feast on your despair
From your downfall I will rise
Gratification in hatred and disgust
"Der Lebenslauf des Menschen besteht darin,
dass er, von der Hoffnung genarrt,
dem Tod in die Arme tanzt..."
(Arthur Schoppenhauer)
In this ferocious storm
Only a few will survive
The ephemera will not endure
Abandoned and forever gone
A self-conscious nothing
An educated ape
Existence is your exile
Emptiness your dear home
And when the smoke clears
The only thing left will be
A wrenched mass of human remains
Prepared to meet their creator
And as I watch your spirits crumble
I shall feast on your despair
From your downfall I will rise
Gratification in hatred and disgust

The Web Of Your Betrayal
04:57
|
|||
Soulless creature
Once you told me
Never trust the pale moon
Embraced you as my brother
Years it took to unfold the truth
Never again
Shall you speak
Your treacherous mind
Darkened sting
The Web Of Your Betrayal
Now cold and stiff you lie in a casket
Strangled by the threads of dishonesty
A quiet walk through the abyss
A recognition by smashing the lid
Now you rest my child
Sleep with the maggots
Yours sincerely,
The Spider Of Mistrust

Death Of A Wanderer
08:01
|
|||
Standing here in silence
Watching this world spin
Oh, a warm golden day rising
Will this stream of light clear the gloom
Every place the winds of fate have lead me
I see misery and strain
My steps echoing with cries
Of desperate souls whose souls have gone astray
Staring at the abyss
Waiting
Alas, no release
Naked
Scared and numb
Cold limbs
A heart of stone
Every place the winds of fate have lead me
I see misery and strain
My steps echoing with cries
Of desperate souls whose souls have gone astray
As autumn leaves slowly fade
And cover the soil in October rust
One's life and memories whither away
Gone and forgotten it all turns to dust

Scorned
04:15
|
|||
Is it simply fear of the rejection now
That's slowly poisoning your mind
This damned feeling is going stronger
And like a cancer spreading
And so I finally destroyed my love
The only thing that I've ever had
Frozen feelings buried deep
Still blinded by illusions
Letting down from my first step
Every night I dream of death
Worthless is my every breath
Letting down from my first step
Every night I dream of death
Scorned by everyone that cared
I taste sweet lips of despair
And sink into a peaceful drowse
A brief ray of light shines on me
And the pain is no more
Letting down from my first step
Every night I dream of death
Worthless is my every breath
Letting down from my first step
Every night I dream of death
Scorned by everyone that cared
