Through life
As we guard this light we search for life
We abandon all hope
As we guard this light we hold on to nothing
We feel close to the womb
Who could ever fill this hearts?
Those which are exhausted
Those which are forgotten
Seek the truth between thousand suns
The wisdom in-between
We strive for all but nothing within our lives
To distant are the hearts, just filled with empty words
Relentless powers, like waves taking the shores
We, a grain in a furnace
We, the gods who descend
There’s no great light in which we will remain
As we fall.
Through life we live
Through life we hope
Through life we die
All alone we die
As we die, we always should remember what we promised
Mend the wounds of those you love
Embrace their souls
Between thousand suns there's no hope, no glimmering blaze
Only a womb where we all came from
An empty throne all alone
There’s no great light in which we will remain
As we fall.

Shining Black Angel

Shining black angel
The cruellest king
Steps out of his darkness
As I gaze at a shining star
I realize, I've seen this before.
As it eats my heart
Lacerates my soul...
“I received life like a wound,
and I have forbidden suicide to heal the scar.
I want the Creator - every hour of his eternity -
to contemplate its gaping crevasse.
This is the punishment I inflict upon him.“
The painting of “life” - A portrait of dead souls
For you I searched for death - The devouring light incides
Overcome thy lord - A new profession
The cruellest king steps out of his darkness
A colder shiver will cover your skin
Opening old sores - salvation denied
The quintessence of life - punished
The cruellest king steps out of his darkness
Black and destructive in angel’s shape
Your depravity, my weapon
I’ll lead you through a thousand plagues
Every single one is a part of me
Unheard prayers among tarnished silhouettes
Your aghast eyes turns away from the sky
To the dust of sanity in your withered hands
Faded memories come close again
A maelstrom of inhuman fears
As I gaze at a shining star
I realize, I've seen this before.
As it eats my heart
Lacerates my soul...
Oh creator, I suffer for thee through wider wounds
This gaping crevices, incarnations of my scorn
Languished human souls, my defiance belongs to you
Fear the lightless one I have become
Hours will fade in my luciferian shadow
I am the cruellest king
The everything inside this emptiness
Everything upon the shining star
Everything inside of nothing
Everything inside of you

A Serpent's Tale

A serpent's tale
I saw my blood – so dark, so ever flowing
Black waters so silent carving their way
I saw the serpent – so wise, so bearing
Did you see the star fall?
Signs carved deep into the palm
Condemnation of the marked
Refined be thy soul beneath stagnation
An order defined to separate life from man
The night forlorn, beware Orion
Lust for the southern crown
Sore roamer: The essence of life is falling down
Your star is falling down
A devouring light unbound a starless darkness
Through a gaping cosmic wound
I saw my blood – so dark, so ever flowing
I saw the serpent – so wise, so bearing
Did you see the star fall?
Salvation comes through me
Forgiveness speaks through me
There will be no catharsis
Let darkness shine on thee

Wanderer Above The Stars

Wanderer above the stars
I touched the crooked
door celeste
to wander through
the sole bequest
in vain
who dares to glimpse
beyond the stars?
Elusive needlepins
of far and far and far
