Above All Silence
13:00

After this dreadful trial
Thoughts unfold, a life is derailed
A mission on the wane
Standstill, close to me a face is bleeding
Water trickles down the pane
And blesses me with a welcome shade
My departure seems to fail in vain
I am searching for a mouth to fill it with my name
A rusty curse of evil nails me on the bottom
...but I turn up the collar and enter
With head held high, above all silence

Cascadian

Moonlight cascades downwards
Moonlight creates an expressive silence
We're suffering from cold rays whirling down like spirals
Under a moon we're begging for our funerals
Worthy of a special remark
Such religion is flooding my hands and the cascades keep running
I am open to suggestions, but who will ask me?
Who will reveal the oblivion?
The final cut from life
Friend, come close and rot by rocks
Friend, come closer to the sea
Waves roll to my feet and we die by a graceful hand

Wie die Wasser...
10:16

Teak und glatt, geborgen in schweren Haenden
Das wissen darum beruhigt die Seele und schwaerzt die Welt
Kontrastiert und schaeerft die Sinne
Ich kann sehen
Ein Schweif entreisst sich aus der Tiefe
ein Schein von Hochmut laesst und fallen
...zu Boden
Wie die Wasser sind wir verwachsen,
wie die Sterne sind wir uns fern und scheinen uns nach einander zu verzehren
Mit meinen Fingern erkunde ich die scharfen Kanten
Kalt und glatt, der Schluessel fuer dein Schloss
Ich oeffne dich, schwarzer Schmetterling
Ich kann sehen...
Mein leerer Blick erreicht die WInde, ein einsamer Gedanke erreicht den Grund
Wie die Wasser sind wir verwachsen, wie die Sterne sind wir uns fern und scheinen uns nacheinander zu verzehren

These dreams, they come like grey sharks
With teeth of horror and misery
I sleep them with my head on sand
and I adore your sexy scars
You are the star, myself is becoming a grenade
This term collides with everything
A shark to hold and a maiden to bury
I am your prey and all this pain I carry
The names of myself are countless
Slowly rivers run downwards
and the misery spells my name
Inside the tower of a mountain she is the rock
and on the sky, she is the star
Slowly, rivers run downwards
and the misery spells my name
...the man with a load of mischief carries the names
and we are alone
...the man with a load of mischief tries to enter the scene
He carries the burden

Down the Line
09:32
|

I am the skinny wolf with bones around my neck
through tunnels I Shall walk and passing lives will enter me
When I arrive my footsteps cast a gloom
Hail all the fading lives, under a hate of doom
I am turning my eyes, as I walk beside your despondency
Whispers turned to ashes and pull me inti the grave
I'm torn within a ladscape of grey
Whispers arose again and embodied me
Rain, my father, I will search you with my bride
I will find you down the line
... a skinny servant points his finger at me
Death owns me like a hunter cused the prey
A skinny servant of darkness covers me
And I welcome this torment
Maybe I should smile?
As I'm facing the eyes of the monster
In the caverns it hides
It's the man of mischief with his mouth full of flies
Smiling down the line
