... In Love And War

It's so easy to get under your skin
Like the earth was shaking underneath my feet
Walk this line together unbalanced and frail
You bring out the worst in me
One simple word, one venomous remark
Injects the poison in my veins, ignites that spark
Adrenaline kicks in, fuels my anger and hate
This disturbance is just how our love tastes
Can't live with you, the false chord in our song
Wishing you dead, love and hate together
Can't live with you, the false chord in our song
Wishing you dead, be with me forever
One final brawl, two shattered loving hearts
The wounds you cut so deep left never fading scars
The voice of reason tells me to just let you go
My spellbound heart can only scream no

Chiaroscuro
03:48
|

Hollow shadow, covered in theatrical grey
Search for the brighter colours to clear all the danger away
Footsteps coming closer and closer,
In the light of night or day
Swallows me in different emotions
It's just what you want to see
Victimized, there is no monster outside
Through your blinded eye
Forged by your cimmerian truth
Smouldering creation, Chimera, let it fade away
Unknown features, blurry outlines, fun masquerade
Silently it slips in, let your panic dominate
Hands gripping me tighter and tighter
No relief and no escape
Overwhelmed and petrified I stand here, I can't run away
Realize, there is no threat from the outside
Hiding in your mind
Daylight shows me I was fooled again
How can these dreamlike fears feel so real
I can grasp them, I can touch them, make them my reality
Noises sounding louder and louder
In the quietude of night
Hear them moving closer to get me
Hiding till I'm saved by light

Don't be polite 'cause you have to, you've done more than enough
To make me feel this way
Left me trembling, weak and scared in the dark, all dignity gone.
Gone, feelings of loss have now turned into hate
Crawling out of this hellhole I once called my life
This vengeful monster, your mistake
Save me from my hatred, drawing the line for no one to cross
Craving for salvation, mortified of what I have become
All tangled up in your web of lies, no way out no excuse
For what you did to me
Tired of suffering, no one hanging but you,
These walls that I built, keep me protected
Will they ever be torn down?
Now that I've been through hell and back
All reborn and unscarred and saved from adversity
No greater fury like a woman scorned
Your blood shall ran cold
Cold, the only sensation that's left in my heart
All the magic of our bittersweet ending
Two fallen angels, worlds apart.

Adversity
04:24
|
|||
Every careful step I take, may lead me in the wrong way
I'm paralysed as all my confidence fades
This tug of war in my head, the inner battle it creates
I struggle as my energy drains away
Sparks of fire, creation of desire
Slipping away every time
Control the outcome and you'll never see it grow
Attracting your fears, it's like adversity in flow
Cannot reach the norm that determines success of fall
yet I'm refusing to let go of it all
Pushing harder and harder, the nightmare merges with the dream
Result are never favourable
Letting fear and doubt cloud every sane thought that is left in my broken mind
Stuck in this hurricane of life
Can I relive all my lives restore the mistakes that I made, no longer feeling cast away and failed
The hunger inside makes me long for an escape
The shockwave in my vision slayed my faith
Thoughts going over and over again in my head, no answers left to be found
Perpetuous mind-numbing fears control the outcome of my whole life
Stop every motion, your search will lead you nowhere
The limitations in your wisdom feel so raw
Can never live up to the one I have to be
Every spark awakens the dreamer in me
The path you are on may be full of discomfort
But don't let these internal fears mislead you or convince you to go for less than what you're capable of
Don't be discouraged and never stop dreaming

Science - Fiction

Exploring what we cannot explain
Translating life beyond reality
Controlling, no boundary to be seen (controlling the limits)
The rigid lines, impossible for your design
Too big to understand, when future fantasy
Becomes your new history
Rain! Or merely water falling
Defined perception limits optimal design
Limited, the structured outline breaks
Life's just a human shell experience
Capable, of so much more than this
Your controlled possibilities come crashing down
Cannot objectify, your understanding of
Microscopic linear growth
Rain! Or merely water falling
Defined perception limits optimal design
Creating, identified by rules
Rigid concept imprisoned by our thoughts
Ignoring what they can see in dreams
Shattered ways opening up all dimensions
Too big to understand, when future fantasy
Becomes your new history
Rain! Or merely water falling
Defined perception limits optimal design

You hear her dim but enchanting song,
A sparkle of light in the dark
Foolish and adventurous, lured by a silver incantation
Her heart filled with fire, it calls to your desire
Come and follow me into the moonlit night
Let the water embrace you, just hold on tight
Let the touch of my skin warm your heart
One kiss is all it takes to save your soul
Drift away ... from her wicked wiles
Drift away .... from the shores of delight
Childhood stories come to life,
A lustrous sight in the blink of an eye
Soothed by her painfully beautiful call to come closer
Feed her appetite
Waves are crashing down, no escaping this time
Don't follow her into the moonlit night
The water will swallow you, take your life
One touch of her skin, your heart will turn cold
Poisonous lips come to take your soul
The warm and beguiling lullaby, a beacon of hope in despair
Innocent and delicate features hide her true cruelty
Mesmerized, so be aware
Killer instinct lies in the beauty of her eyes

In Balance
06:22
|

Cannot dream without falling asleep,
It's you that I need to restore the balance in me
Wide awake, in the centre of my essence,
The cure for my existence
Letting the system interact, feed it's integrated symmetry
Watching it grow as the structure breaks like an opposing force
That rises deep from within my core
I feel the energy flow - fired up, frozen down in me
The irony of duality
Let me tame all of the loudness inside your head
That's disturbing the silence
Outcries get louder and louder. A strategy for life,
The antidote makes you survive
The inner struggle will never die
Holding on to what makes me complete
You are the only reason that I can be
Everything I am, is questioned in your absence
No proof for my existence
Crossing a line that no one sees intertwining our reallity
Watching it grow as the structure breaks fighting the undefined formula
That keeps our system sane
I feel the energy flow - fired up, frozen down in me
The irony of duality puzzles my beliefs
Clear up the war that lies deep inside
Breaking with all make believe thoughts devised in my mind
Deviate to see, the fundamental mystery, an existential certainty.
Letting the system interact, feed it's integrated symmetry
Watching it grow as the structure breaks fighting the undefined formula
That keeps our system sane
I feel the energy flow - fired up, frozen down in me
The irony of duality puzzles my beliefs

Isochronism
04:29
|

Close the door, open your windows to the world outside
It's the same but still changed
I watch my footsteps in the snow
In the aftermath of my life's turmoil
In a state of constant motion, even a standstill is a choice
It cannot be stopped, evokes a chain reaction
With the change of season, the wheel revolves
Time, understand it's strength
Beyond our basic notion
In the rebirth of the sun
Don't matter how fast you run ...

Deafening Silence
05:20
|
|||
Saying more than a thousand words
You need to break silence
All that's left unspoken
Feels like a storm of emotions coming out
Feel the deep cut in my veins
Letting the blood drain from my face
Recall the slamming of the door
Making my ears bleed out
Swallowed your pride too many times
My only wish was to be heard
Walking away is like oil to the fire
A soothing blanket to numb the pain
Feel the deep cut in my veins
Letting the blood drain from my face
Recall the slamming of the door
Making my ears bleed out
This heavy stone my burden to bear
Memories I can't wash out
Say the words, scream it out
For the last time the cat got your tongue
But now the cat in my head's dead
Out of sight you're breathing fire
Observing the wreckage that I am
