Thee, Who Wakes Me Unknown
Slavess of my very thoughts!
Thee who wakes me unknown,
Lame soul, weeds of thine eyes...
Make me feel once again
Ecstatic spasm,
Blaze of my forlorn joy.
May them burn, may them mourn!
Those heavenly doors...
May dew glisten blooms
Of thine mastery
Let me bowed kiss Elysium
To see no more day nor night.
Oh, Lord, behold! What thou made of her.
Cold winds, darkness, frost...
May thy grace scorch me sinful
Cursed to be my life and dream...
Her bosoms void my tomb shall be
Receiving me may she feel the pain
Caressing her face I fell to earth
And tear of Hers I have become

Promethean Punishment

Promethean Punishment
Promethean punishment…
Amongst ruins, amongst wrecks…
Amongst shadows…
Godforsaken…
I am told to remain…
I bring light!
Ancient wisdom.
"Thou shall not rise!"
Yet, I fall…
My eyes bleed,
I’ll scratch ‘em more…
I curse my demons….
I curse my demons….
‘fore me…
Eternity…
‘fore me….
Suffering…
I give Light!
Ancient wisdom.
My hands are bound
prepared for shroud
I dig the grave…
alone…
I curse my demons….
I curse my demons….
‘fore me…
Eternity…
‘fore me….
Child….
I am light!
I am wisdom!

I Dwell Alone

I dwell alone...
„I dwell alone... In a world of moan...“ (E.A. Poe)
Through depths of dark pit where my heart fell...
Silhouette in tears... As darkness descends...
It’s too late to repent... All hope is gone...
No more I long for this hideous being...
How slowly time creeps... solitude burns...
„I dwell alone... In a world of moan...“
Through depths of dark pit where my heart fell...
Life’s travesty...
Great blasphemy...
Pain evoke demise...
Cruel irony...
Divine tragedy...
Fate deride hoarse cries...
Fall... to rise...
Crawl... to fly...
Away... Oh, away... Away... Oh, away...

Thou Devour The Sea

Thou devour the sea
Wilt Thou twitch the sprout from roots? Wilt Thou?
Wilt Thou give me a sight? Wilt Thou?
Wilt Thou give to me a sight of such a pain?
Wilt Thou?
No mercy for the lame... Lazarus - thrown away
How came that Thou love me not?
The ancient passion Thou gave, now is gone...
How came that Thou forgive me not?
I feast upon your weakness
Waiting for demise
I despise your sickness
Greater i will rise!
Rise....
Silver glass tightens where pictures once stood,
Laughter-spread hatred through Heavens above...
I ate your flesh I scorn, I drank your blood
Mouth speak, ears do not hear, drops of weakness leak...
They pour, they scream, they fall...
Fall...
With gangrenous hands you impact my wounds
deny your words - “I am The One”
ubiquitous fear Thou’ve ruined, now I gain.
Mouth speak, ears do not hear, drops of weakness leak...
They pour, they scream, they fall...
I am the one who descendeth from Heaven to Hell
Fall… Fall… Fall… Fall…
Thou devour the sea...
Sirens go away...

When Faith Is Kneeling

When Faith Is Kneeling
Since there’s no help, come let us kiss and part,—
Nay I have done, you get no more of me;
And I am glad, yea, glad with all my heart,
That thus so cleanly I myself can free;
Shake hands for ever, cancel all our vows,
And when we meet at any time again,
Be it not seen in either of our brows
That we one jot of former love retain.
Now at the last gasp of love’s latest breath,
When his pulse failing, passion speechless lies,
When faith is kneeling by his bed of death,
And innocence is closing up his eyes,
—Now if thou would’st, when all have given (him) over,
From death to life thou might’st him yet recover!

I Am Doom
Here I am...
Bleak memory...
Soul tormentor...
Tragedy...
Uttermost,
sheer misery...
Unknown...
Untold...
Suffering...
In vast dignity...
Hope abandoned
Agony...
Here I am...
Bleak memory...
Soul tormentor...
I’m an ocean, deep, black and wide
I rise - I am godless victory
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide
I rise - I am godless victory
Up from a past that's rooted in pain
I rise - I am godless victory
Out of the dungeons of history's shame
I rise - I am godless victory
Now that all hope has flown away
I rise - I am godless victory
No tongue will speak, no eyes will pray...
I rise - I am godless victory
Your present is ashen, your future is bleak
I rise - I am godless victory
I am the coldness you hold deep inside.
I am lord of pesimism,
Great misfortune...
I am doom...
