Among vacuous tides I was beckoned
Devoid of substance I arrive
At an unfamiliar crossroad
Ways that fade as waves of light
Trace obscurity in my own soul
Open wounds, dormant pain
But it´s not the loss I mourn now
Disavowing from a future left untold
I find rejoice in silent memories and hopes
To stitch the truth within me
An empty well as deep as the seas
Solace soaks the driest of hearts
A wake up call sent straight from the grave
With no intention to subside
Colors fade as darkness sets in
Watered down and pale as ever before
Utilitarian love served its purpose
Withered and scarred again I begin;
I conceal a pit of bottomless guilt
Channeled through the noose I left untold
Blackened by the moonlit blight
that once kindled the pain I feel inside
May the needle carve my way into the mist
As I drown through the abyss
To stitch the truth within me
An empty well as deep as the seas
Solace soaks the driest of hearts
A wake up call sent straight from the grave
With no intention to subside
Colors fade as darkness sets in
Watered down and pale as ever before
Utilitarian love served its purpose
Withered and scarred again I begin
To stitch the truth within me
An empty well as deep as the seas
Solace soaks the driest of hearts
A wake up call sent straight from the grave
With no intention to subside
In my dreams, he who is said to be three
Graces my sight
Turns his head and says
This is the life you´ve chosen
This is the lie you´ve chosen

Harrowing uncertainty through
Lenses and images I cast on thee
For what life can be
Life can be something different
It´s a brand new day,and I'll rise anew
To the challenge of surpassing everything
Deceived by my senses I strafed astray
Drifted further, further away
Casting light to escape my memory
And any unpleasant reality
Outwit your conscience, self-murderer
insider of coarse regret
Your usual trademark of absence
Hides a trail of unspoken dissent
Tread lightly through the tracks once forsaken
Rewrite what will come, what will be
The revival of a broken skyline
This slacklining fate… I’ll scape its methodical madness
The hourglass ticking grain by grain and slowly draining my life away
Is the fear that plagues our thoughts
Like a poison that keeps you awake, undefiant
Destroy all that makes you a slave to the tyrant that´s lurking…
Lurking underneath your skin
Discerning conscience from perspective
A warm welcome into my mind
Allow the present to lay the cards for you
Abscond from the side you crave
Outwit your conscience, self-murderer
Insider of coarse regret
Your usual trademark of absence
Hides a trail of unspoken dissent
Tread lightly through the tracks once forsaken
Rewrite What will come, what will be the
Revival of a broken skyline
This slacklining fate… I’ll scape its methodical madness
Be one with emotions and true needs

Hello, I come to you
As a simple fella with evil to undo
There is no right, there is no wrong
There's only space for the people that belong
Never let anyone tell you
What you shouldn't let anyone
say to you, but me
Trust your attitude regardless of aptitude
Even if all it does is lead you
To a dead end
Refuse to ever accept defeat
Persevere even if it puts
Your own integrity at risk
Prayer for those gone astray
Cannot believe we're left alone
In the light of the day
From coal into cold ember
A dead gaze, a vacuous march
The choice to surrender
Duty keeps their hearts alive
Need bolsters faith
And I reap the excess
Bliss for release
No more, no less
Good day, good night
Blessed be the people that are with me
Along for the ride
Virtue, to tantalize
Lay back and point your finger
The righteous have been cauterized
Never let anyone tell you
What you shouldn't let anyone
say to you, but me
Trust your attitude regardless of aptitude
Even if all it does is lead you
To a dead end
Refuse to ever accept defeat
Persevere even if it puts
Your own integrity at risk
Prayer for those gone astray
Cannot believe we're left alone
In the light of the day
From coal into cold ember
A dead gaze, a vacuous march
The choice to surrender
Duty keeps their hearts alive
Need bolsters faith
And I reap the excess
Bliss for release
No more, no less

From blue to black and back to gray
Only chimeras stand in your way
From blue to black and back to gray
A royal stain fit for a slave
Cycle through cycle
Falling behind
Cycle through cycle
Blizzard unwinds

In the wake an idea spurs from boredom
Given time it's consumed my whole being
Color the skies with the tools that I give you
Mind you may
Watch out for discrepancies
It is time, to go back
The ones who stood afore now stand behind
Broken will, hologram
Shaking their foundation till there's nothing left to cling on to
Hope they are never able to stitch the truth
Hook in mouth and heading south
Your consciousness long left you
All news are proof-less, tooth-less and truth-less
Life is will, let it become what you need it to be
It is time, to go back
The ones who stood afore now stand behind
Broken will, hologram
Mother, father flushed down the drain
Lacking their trust must fill you with pain
Brother, sister, kept you constrained
All of your worries wasted in vain
We the collective existing as one
Faceless chimeras won't leave till they're done
Boredom and envy enslaving the weak
Of blooddrunk dementia your majesty reeks
Veil untied, bent resolve
Through the struggles I foretold
Words come out, like a brainless automaton
It's meant to be, you learn from me
Another day, another life is saved
A parasite for the elder and
A gateway for the young
Feed my ego, and the wisdom shall come to you
Hit those likes, enjoy your time and reward my laziness
This life suits me like the perfect ring with diamonds
Come on, it's show time
Let’s give these freaks what they want
Frost
Make your way afar and bathe in my knowledge
Timely you´ll be in far greater need
As old superstitions fade into blackness
Of matter and mind they will decay
Candles dwindle, blow´em on your heyday to Kindle flames that glisten inside
The cavern, the allegory
Of implausible, laughable gazes and shades
Veil untied, bent resolve
Through the struggles I foretold

Recall, speech word by word
Drilling into your brain
I walk, through barren halls
Mirrors reflect the scourge
Undaunted I bring thee
The lost truth I dwell in
One which no third eye can see
Every need is another addiction
The unnatural is the one true ambition
All means become harder prescriptions
And make up the world as ugly as it's vicious
So, dehumanize when cruelty is the norm
And power seeks power above all else
Kickstart the fires of the hopeless
And watch the world shine ablaze in its vanity
Protect the rights of the hypocrites
You'll see them fighting for the ashes
Let's change the subject
Let's talk about love
What can we do to sust...
Tainted hearts to the rescue
Of an apparently selfless idea
While the possession withholds a lost cause
All in the name of fulfillment
When it's the sense of belonging that withers
Oh the oath has run its course
Better safe than sorry
No value in staying resilient
A carnage awaits inside
My demon is hungry and eats away
No remorse, nor regret or will to be caged
And suicidal in a rut of such predictable nature
Our faiths come together in hatred
The imminent cleanse is the only alternative
Man is a wolf to man in the eye for eye
We'll see how respectful they stand
When we harness their thrones
And cleanse the land they sit upon
Fallen from grace they will crumble and wither
Pay for the whole of their barbed wire mishaps
Regrets deviate from ungratefulness
But we don´t bite the hand, we´ll rip it off
Kickstart the fires of the hopeless
And watch the world shine ablaze in its vanity
Protect the rights of the hypocrites
You'll see them fighting for the ashes

Stuck in the dark side of a two way mirror
White spots stain the bitter truth
Rationalize your feelings, pull the virtue’s plug
Or submit yourself to your self-made hare-braining drugs
All news are proof-less, tooth-less and truth-less
Constructs created by clueless depressors
That indoctrinate the minds of the masses
Our truth devoid of purpose and a reason
To be, to live and believe the bullshit
One last time, one last drop
of the septic prejudice that´s burning inside
Cause we're headed nowhere, and nothing we will find
Through the fires of the nameless we become charcoal
In our spirit, in our body, mind and soul
Whilst those power hungry parasites,
Seek out grander means to harness more
All our deities are warmongers
Stocking common people's faith
We're nothing but sheep in their chessboard
Ambition daydreams, colonial nightmares
Industrialize. Dig up a golden ticket to your grave
Develop at the cost of everyone
Who is this for?
Well we don't know
And we don't care
One bullet, just one less… To worry about when conflict is
Of winners and losers, money talks
And I’ll soon as hell shall kiss'em goodbye
As I will myself in due time
Lovingly drawn to deception
Sentimental loss of perception
The candlelights flickered that night, with the scent of suicide
Through the fires of the nameless we become charcoal
In our spirit, in our body, mind and soul
Whilst those power hungry parasites,
Seek out grander means to harness more
All our deities are warmongers
Stocking common people's faith
We're nothing but sheep in their chessboard
Go!

When kingdoms lay waste, drown you in despair
Allow your heart to resist, and persevere
Emotions flow, like rivers blue and grey
The middle ground is freedom for the take
And call upon forsaken skies as martyrs defiled
We do not need no guidance
A knee deep into self compliance
Unleash your rage and savor it, turn it into something great
Whatever feels anew is the only way to follow,
Find your peace of mind in the light at the end of the tunnel
Narrow paths are filled with tracks of souls that
moved on from sorrow to ecstasy
Wake up the stuttered voice of life
That makes the darkness shine alight
Don´t forget, you´re way better than just fine
When the clock ticks, you´ve still got some time
Wandering along the mist of all the lies and spiteful sins
What gives, bitch? Resist through persistence
A waste of a day is a waste of existence
One journey to live, a long road ahead
Make the most of it, it´s your duty
Life is will, let it become what you need it to be
For great moments are born from great opportunities
Feed yourself with beliefs and memories
Of better times to come, while the worst ones cease to be
Learn to relish this finite rollercoaster
Where every minute is the last want of your ride
And let adrenaline create the vaccine to the unavoidable demise
And feel welcome where the craziest thought is wise
Follow your mind throw this narrow path we walk
Open your eyes and everything will come
it's certainly easier than you thought
Go get your dreams they are waiting for you to
Rise up and stand against those who question your capacities
Self-doubting is not an option anymore
Don't listen to me, listen to yourself
A voice within will guide your thoughts and consciousness
To enjoy the journey aplenty and live what it could be
Wonders sprawl around you, euphoria elates within,
It´s your destiny
Pick up the pace, young mind and shine alight
Your time on earth in one to fight
And grow so reflect on
The fears you must embrace alone
Wandering along the mist of all the lies and spiteful sins
What gives, bitch? Resist through persistence
A waste of a day is a waste of existence
One journey to live, a long road ahead
Make the most of it, it´s your duty
Life is will, let it become what you need it to be
For great moments are born from great opportunities
Feed yourself with beliefs and memories
Of better times to come, while the worst ones cease to be
Learn to relish this finite rollercoaster
Where every minute is the last want of your ride
Let adrenaline create the vaccine to the unavoidable demise
And feel welcome… to your life
Yet, when you´re down in luck
With hardships taking over
Find emotion amidst the notion of discovering

I thought I'd see it through
The gray perpetual chasm
When it's a call beyond that stirs
The remnants of a life
Imbued in my soul
Smoke and mirrors,
The dream now falls apart
When the nightmare unveils
Show’s what reality entails
And hits twice as hard
Devoid of substance I depart
From a now familiar crossroad
Ways don't fade, they come undone
A tide of waking strides
Beholds nothingness
It is all I see
When I close my eyes
Consuming me
Be it as it may, just to end
There’s no one there
There’s never been
I stretched far out
To search within
Undoing my restraints
To tie me back again
Cycle through emotions
Altered states in display
Full disclosure, loss of
Composure
Underway
Scan the horizon
An intrinsic desire for more
Yet the wind howls
But it won't bring
no response
Set
aside
fear
and faith
Trip
The wire
Rip
The net
Moon-
less night
Blood
flows not
Grief-
less cry
Wake
To die
Poor excuses for sentient life
Free-willed automatons with limited reach
A gray void inside of us impossible to stitch
Wait for the day it swallows us deep
Crawl beyond the masses
Transcending mortal ties
Healing inflows
Woven fictions
Born
From coal into cold ember
A stagnant fatal tie
Oh I feel now
How my heart withers
Beneath ice
Time
Goes by
Sick
In sight
Mour-
ing crave
Feeds
Off me
Struck
My vein
Start again
Cy-
Clical
Psy-
Chotic
Should’ve accepted my swollen pain
I found out the hard way, a loss remains
Among the hindered I built my reign
Foundation of chemicals, take me away again!
Oh I fear I can't begin to understand
Just how I failed
When disrupting all I’ve known
The end entails
From gray to blue,
purple to black
Picking deep within me
Scorch beneath the skin
By dents and marks, abide
To find truth in the waking world
