Opium, desire or will?
Inspiration bound from an elegant seed
Subversion, through smoke I foresee
Erotic motions of lesser gods in ecstasy
Opium, bring me forth another dream
Spawn worlds of flesh and red,
little jewels of atrocity
Opium, I sleep in debauchery
And burn with you
when you burn in me
Opium, we fantasize
as we fuse with your root
You are a strangest fruit
Opium, it burns in me and you
Opium, it burns for me and for you
"Por isso eu tomo ópio. É um remédio.
Sou um convalescente do Momento.
Moro no rés do chäo do Pensamento
E ver passar a vida faz-me tédio."
(Fernando Pessoa/

lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home
lost in the haze so far away who's going to guide us home
i've struggled to get near it to backwards engineer it
but all i find is a smoke and mirror game
the recondite monopolise the airwaves
till all believe there is no other way
and this is how we live our lives our opium is televised
till finally they watch us fade away
our lifeless generation is going to the wall
a languid demonstration of daze before a fall
a preconceived condition imagined long ago
but will we ever know all that lies below
they'll print it on the front page to synthesise an outrage
but all we find is a decoy once again
duplicity and trickery surround us
till all believe there is no other way
and this is how we fall asleep their opium is running deep
till finally they watch us fade away
our lifeless generation is going to the wall
a languid demonstration of daze before a fall
a preconceived condition imagined long ago
but will we ever know all that lies below
waiting to play are we the pawns in this game
paving the way watching the kings make their claim
martyrs and spies although we don't realise
falling away under the watch of their eyes
this is the way we've chosen to be
this is the road that we go down
as clear as the day but still we don't see
we'll only know when it's over
lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home
lost in the haze so far away who's going to guide us home
and this is how our nation died our opium has satisfied
and finally they watch us fade away
our lifeless generation is going to the wall
a languid demonstration of daze before a fall
a preconceived condition imagined long ago

Blue like water
Blue like heaven is
all of the time
I'm all right
I'm just gagging on all the all right
I'm so happy
So happy
I'm in heaven
Yeah heaven
Oh the seasons come for opium
Mom...mom
Mom...mom
I'm so happy
So happy
I'm in heaven
Yeah heaven

Why I wonder why you sigh?
There's no reason
There's no reason for you to cry
Don't, don't believe your own lies
There's no reason
There's no reason for you to sigh
Music, music is opium for free
Try a little, try to consume me
Music is Prozac for free
Don't get stuck in greed
Why, why don't you dare to speak?
Silence, silence will tighten our [Incomprehensible]
Happy, happiness is not for lease
Silence, silence will tighten our [Incomprehensible]
Music, music is opium for free
Try a little, try to consume me
Music is Prozac for free
Don't get stuck in greed
Music, silence, happy
There's no reason
Music, silence, happy

Sometimes
I feel like I want to live
Far from the metropolis
Just walk through that door
Sometimes
I feel like I want to fly
Reach out to the painted sky
A prisoner to the wind
A bird on the wing
Sometimes
I feel the ocean in my blood
See rain from the sky above
Her song blind tears
And now
Those tears leave taste on my tongue
Like the warm rush you get from
Black opium
Black opium
Sometimes
I feel like I want to leave
Behind all these memories
And walk through that door
Outside
The black night calls my name
But all roads look the same
They lead nowhere

Beautiful smoke
Beautiful smoke
Whispers never mind
Whispers never mind
Opium, opium
Makes the deep
Things appear
Makes the deep
Things appear
Opium, opium
Sugarcoats my blues
Sugarcoats my blues
It's such an elegant decay
Such an elegant decay
Opium, opium
Beautiful smoke
Beautiful smoke
Whispers never mind
Whispers never mind

I feel the intoxicating will,
The seeds are sprouting through my fertile flesh.
On thorns I lay.
Through the smoke I see the hidden flame.
You lead me out of my pain,
You lead me out of my chains..
Because you are my opium
my sinful thorn.
muse for a Devil's song.
In scorching and depraved dreams
I'm falling down to the sweetest sin.
Deliver me from human nature,
And give me wild power of the beast.
You lead me out of my pain,
You lead me out of my chains..
Because you are my OPIUM
my sinful thorn.

Can you see them coming
From the valleys and hills
They finally got you
Can you see them staring
As the rain hits your palms
They are here to gut you
Can you here them speak your name
They shout it out
So the storm can come through
Can you hear them celebrate
That they found you
Their knives will slip through
I know... I know... That you can...
Zeitgeist
Wow wow -- Darkness kingsized!
Opium
Zeitgeist
Wow wow - The end of our lives!
Opium
Can you feel them closing in.
The sky has exploded
From powers unseen
Can you feel your struggle
As the dark turns to white
The whitest you've seen
Can you think of
Why they are here
To carve your lungs out
With their little toys
Can you think of why
You were playing on the darkside
As you end in sharp noise
I know... I know... That you can!
Zeitgeist
Wow wow -- Darkness kingsized!
Opium
Zeitgeist
Wow wow - The end of our lives!
Opium
They count your steps
They count your heartbeats
They count the seconds
That are carved in blood
And you give in for the world
That I show you tonight
Because the shadows strike hard
In the ballrooms of your mind
And now the devils play their cards

Opium dans le ciel
Formes rondes, formes belles
J'ai des amis qui en abusent mais moi
Ma bohème s'use
Voie lactée, émeraude
La séance est avant l'aube
Les insomniaques s'amusent mais moi
Ma bohème s'use
Mais moi ma bohème s'use
La terre pivote et autour d'elle
Des âmes flanent
Une âme espère et l'autre rêve
Des âmes planent
L'espace garde en otage
Le lunatique en son ouvrage
Et le dauphin flou sous l'hymen d'eau
Que la lune suit de ses flambeaux
Vous les bonheurs célestes
Vous qui veniez dans ma cambuse
M'aimez-vous encore, aimez-vous ce qu'il reste
Une fois que le temps prend l'homme et l'use
Que le temps prend l'homme et l'use
La terre pivote et autour d'elle
Des âmes flanent
Une âme espère et l'autre rêve

Give me some fire, and a piece of glass
Hear that train, floatin' past
On feathered tracks, with helium wheels
Ain't no coal, ain't no steel
Chorus:
Opium, won't you smile on my brain
Flowers and fog, you've got me feeling no pain
It's 8: 00 AM, not a quarter past 3: 00
Flowers and fog, you've gotta set me free
Deja vu, all over again
You wanna be my pal, my best-est friend
Hear that train, screamin' past
Out of control and off the tracks
Chorus:
Rescue me, you've got to rescue me
Rescue me, you've got to rescue me
Rescue me, you've got to rescue me
Rescue me, you've gotta set me free
Chorus:
Fast asleep, quick to die
Seen 'em go in the blink of an eye
Long white line, tied to the tracks
Little white lie, no looking back

The secrets that you've always told me
I've put them all behind through getting high
The secrets that I never should've known
Are running through my veins into my soul
It just comes in handy for a bad day
All I wanna do is get a little hazed
This just comes in handy for a bad day
This just comes in handy for a bad day
The heroin I take just helps me die
A slower death that keeps my soul alive
My dreams are filled as mystery unfolds
Another hedonistic tended goal
This just comes in handy for a bad day
All I wanna do is get a little hazed
This just comes in handy for a bad day

Twisting neath this putrid skin
Like burning thorns in this rotten flesh
Fade to the night my child
The skin is numb
Twisted grin, terror sweat
A state of peace
As above, so below
Forevermore, nevermore
Dead but dreaming
The eye is all-seeing
Dead but dreaming
Is your master made of lies
Crawling through this useless shell
Hallucinating in this dream-like state
Within me is all and everything
