Who Decides?

I belch your shitty blessing
Time stands still when my knife cuts your throat
They call me muder, but I am your true savior
Your screams are sweet melodies to my ears
Teaching children to pray while themselves you prey
You speak about God, but not about peace
I belch your shitty blessing
What can I do if I am the chosen one?
Chorus I

Who Decides? (Bloodthirsty)
Who Decides? (Dementia!)
Who Decides? (In the name)
Who Decides? (Questions)
Who Decides? (Who?)
Who Decides? (Is your God?)
Who Decides? (Is the priest?)
Who Decides? (Who Decides?)

Now the story
Is about to begin
Inside a world
Where no-one can harm us
Can you feel this?
Can you see this?
Open the
Vulnerable me for you
Long live
To what was born here
Endless is
What we have for each other
Sovereign power
Makes us strong enough
To correct
Our past mistakes and fix this
Remnants of a story
That is only written by two, the fall
Believe in yourself and overwhelm this
Long live
To what was born here
Nothing
Will tears us apart, ice burns
Necessary to grow
Can I protect you? One with the light and the dark
Lost within the thoughts
To remember we are alive
Endlessly are the nights without the presence
Endlessly...
Silence in the air trying to tear us
Remember of what we have - one
Be together with light and the dark
Never giving up and no-one left, independent, we aren’t doomed or fated to fade
Committed with the fire and the flame
Out from the abyss of mankind’s chaos
Let me save you from the demons you can’t get rid from the enigma of life

Lifeless

The sensation of emptiness
Is what fill this being
And darkness feeds this sick child
Not scared of death to come,
Seduced, silent, lifeless
Forgive me mother
because I am weak
Take care of her,
your son is lost
Inside this bleak
vastness within
Turning white
into black
Here I lie inside
this dark room
Sharing the floor
with poisonous blood
Wasting away my soul
soaked in gloom
After all these years
trying to be heard
Silent, lifeless...still
This room is alike, a re-creation of my torments and nightmares
Soul dwells a claustrophobic maze
Mesmerized by undead sirens
Singing their threnody of unhappiness
Eyes closed, mind in shock
An empty vessel ashore
Precious, loved suicide
Obliterates any trace of life
Body twisted, fragmented shot
Seduced by sinful vanities
Silent by a speechless void
Lifeless by a razor-shard of glass
Still I lay forever on this cruel reality
Seduced by the shapeless snake I’m awed
Silent I am for a tongue I carry no more
Lifeless as I’ve been since I was born
Still I lay rotting inside the æmber
I have no name
I am just words
I have no meaning
I only exist
Touched by sorrow’s chant
A love denied
A cry ignored
Drowned in a feeling I only adore
A life neglected
A presence required
Surrounded by shadows of lore
In solitude I believed in love
It was a mistake made by God
In solitude I believed in fate
it was the way that led to hate

A Perfect Solution
07:19
|
|||
A godlike desire
Snow tainted red
A perfect solution
For all yearning illusions
The barren soil (dead)
For thy soul cast no more, fire
Another loveless child
Within a rotten world
That is coming undone
To an end searing and wild
A perfect solution has come
The trail of blood
Faces painted with horror
Frail tomorrow
Amongst the turmoil
A sad serenade can be listened
A perfect solution has come
Tonight the stars faded
Aren’t shining nor changing
Snow tainted red
A perfect solution
Has come at last
Erase the past with ease
Forgotten futures unbuilt
Words of destiny misspoken
To all the wrongs, your heave
Thy burdens, grief and guilt
Life shattered and dreams broken

A Burden to Carry Alone
05:00
|
|||
A moment to fall
All his life feeling as a fail
Something that can’t be fixed
Then the echoes inside his head
Say what he needs to do
To cease this burden
To end all the suffering
To end all the suffering
Unbeknownst the necessary knowledge
Learnt how to lie
An ailment that can’t be broken
The soul in eternal mourn
The soul in eternal mourn
Chorus
Days go by
As life flies
The clock ticks the time
(Even the time will die)
(the voices inside his head)
“And he isn’t frightened
Knowing what need to be done
Someday all the beloved ones
Will be with him again
All the grey morning days
No-one loves you
This burden you have to carry alone
Have courage once in your life
And erase this existence no more needed”
Repeat Chorus

[The passionate killer]
We were two
Together as one
Forgotten souls
Drifting in a bowl
Of shared and lost hopes
As static as stones
We stood from the world
But then our road
Went down the slope
That slippery
Torturous goad
That hurt us both
We shed our blood
In a hatred flood
I can’t forget
Just what you meant
These memories
Take me back
Just like your stare
You’re there
Cold, cold
Stone dead
[The compulsive hater]
Cold, cold, cold
You are alive to my eyes
Where the edge of hope dies
Lay down forever
Cannot say no to me, never
A hollow empire
As a dead flower
Your life fades away
You are alive to my eyes
Where the edge of hope dies
As a dead flower your life fades
Where the edge of silence rests
[The insane lover]
Whispering your name in darkness
Bounded, the chains bind me
An ageless torment arises
Once again I’ll have you in my arms
Whispering your name in darkness
Bounded, the chains bind me
An ageless torment arises
Once again I’ll have you in my arms
[The compulsive hater]
You are alive to my eyes
Where the edge of hope dies
Lay down forever
Cannot say no to me, never
A hollow empire
As a dead flower
Your life fades away
You are alive to my eyes
Where the edge of hope dies
As a dead flower your life fades
Where the edge of silence rests
[The enlightened epiphany]
Dead, impure, unholy
Love, hate, guilt
Dead, rot, impure
Love, hate, Lust
[The passionate and the hater]
We were two
We stood from the world
But then our road
In a hatred flood
I can’t forget
Stone dead
Together as one
Static as stones
[The conscious psychiatrist]
Of all the poisons there be
Regret kills you the slowest see
It’s a flame of neverending burn
Born from within your very soul
It shall drive you mad, you know
It shall drive you mad, you know
[The resentful patient]
Rain is falling in the garden
Of lost souls and dreams
Emptiness my company
From the space within
My shadow stalks my past
Is haunting me away
I’m left here alone again
In this house of horror and decay
Rain is falling in the garden of souls
Rain is falling in the garden of souls
Rain is falling in the garden of souls
Rain is falling in the garden of souls
And slowly we rot inside the aember
And slowly we rot inside the aember
And slowly we rot inside the aember
And slowly we rot inside the aember
And slowly we rot inside the aember
