The children cry
As the bleeding mother prays
No faith for salvation was enough
The beast is born
The young have died
So the old men in disguise
The black pest has risen
Mankind fails before my eyes
To spread the sorrow and despair
Waking!
Like a plague upon the earth
... Evil!
[Lyrics are an excerpt from Mihai Eminescu's "Hyperion", adaptation by Felipe Plaza]
To come to life
From the dark voids
Drowning high
In the sun's flames
As a whole mankind... Fails
I’m the man that you tried to fool,
The one you tried to Kid.
You don’t know all the lies you told,
Don’t believe a word you said.
You know don’t know who you are,
Who you wanna be.
You’re just trying to be someone,
Who means something to me?
What I done you’ve done before
And what I know you know for sure.
You’ve seen it all and you’ve done it all.
You’ve hit the heights but without the fall.
No, I don’t wanna be your friend.
Wooa, when you’re telling me lies again.
You never pleased with the hand your dealt,
The truth is plain to see.
The time has come to walk the line,
Its time to follow me.
You don’t know who you are,
Or who you wanna be.
What I done you’ve done before
And what I know you know for sure
You’ve seen it all and you’ve done it all
You’ve hit the heights but without the fall
No, I don’t wanna be your friend
Wooa, when you’re telling me lies again
What I done you’ve done before
And what I know you know for sure
You’ve seen it all and you’ve done it all
You’ve hit the heights but without the fall
Your living the truth and the stories you’ve told,
The sex and the drugs and the rock and roll.
The world exists outside your head,
The women you fucked, and the lies you’ve said.
No, I don’t wanna be your friend
[Part I: The Loss]*
"What have united us in joy,
Separates us in misery"
Now I'm here all alone,
staring at your sacred grave
My dreams and my hopes...
They're all gone with your last breath
Not your voice or your laugh,
I will ever hear again
To watch you grow, becoming strong...
Is an honor I won't get
Oh my son, my dear son,
why your flesh and not mine?
Over your burial ground,
the promise of my mourning heart
I will ride against the cross
and their army of lies
Every drop of your blood
they will pay with their lives.
The reign of fear, dictators
Of absolute truth, deceiving
The ones that mourn, the blinded
In sacred trust...
They tie the fool, with serpents
Battalions of slaves, are rising
Declaring a war, against will
With sacred trust
They used to believe in a saviour
A prophet with tremendous grace
They worshipped his skull, full of maggots
They offered (opened) their bodies with faith
A temple of lust is their treasure
The ancient destroyers their name
Because, everything falls as they follow
Feel the pressure
Down the river of corpses
The slaves of a kingdom destroyed
The bodies are floating
The blackwater is drowning
The dreams of the ones who return
No one can see this
But me, I am dying
These waters are ripping my flesh
The Ocean awaits me
My season is fading
Inside the circle now
You gave my soul
To seven sins in black
Admiring your cross...
Inside this holy ground
Temptation is pure
A naked figure cries
Tormenting the son
In seven sleepless nights
Oppressed by your mourn
In seven dreams in black
I praised the obscure...
Now all my demons dance
Obsessed by the curse
Denying the son
In harmony we cross the fire
A ceremony of sorrow
Over death's womb
Now take this oath, perpetual pyre
And underneath this ashes,
I once saw them longing for the end
Lead men walking in these lands
Leave behind a life
Once lost by faith
In a hopeless world of worms
Followers!
Crawling disciples of doom
Sentinels!
On the road to the graves
Getting there
With chants and pagan dance!
You will be buried soon
Don't be afraid
The eternal sleep of men
Rest in peace, my son
The priest will say
As the blood of the goat he tastes
Followers!
Crawling disciples of doom
Sentinels!
In the garden of the graves
Celebrate!
The King spoke:
This Empire comes to an end
Long forgotten shall be my name
Once crowned
And now betrayed
By this sickness running through my veins
My vision has turned to black
In this pestilent chamber of disease
Human fragments
Over my face
I cannot breath
I cannot see
The Cult spoke:
Defeated
Devoured
Shall be the king
Eternal
Superior
He laughs and he Jokes,
And he drinks and he chokes,
On the ice in the drink
In his hand.
Starting 4-5-4
Pretty soon he'll have some more,
Like to start again if he can.
Good to pick up early,
But his face is looking surly,
He knows that he'll get it all wrong.
Johnny got a raw deal,
Raw Deal.
Johnny got a raw deal,
Raw Deal.
He eats all the crisps
From the tube he bought,
From the money
From his one night stand.
29 card pick up,
He's gonna throw some sick up,
If his luck don't change too soon.
The games all finished,
Johnny's spirits are diminished,
The shitheads gotta do it all again.
Johnny got a raw deal,
Raw Deal,
Johnny got a raw deal,
You think you’ll do better, You think you’ll do better,
When it comes to you,
Choosing ideal settings,
Our differences shine through.
I hope your right,
I thought the same,
I’d give my life,
To try again.
It’s not as easy done,
As when you were young,
The Simple things,
Have problems inside them,
The everyday is never quite the same,
And all these things are with you when you go to bed at night.
The simple things will cause you so much pain.
Sometimes I go flying so high, my soul falls from grace
Sometimes when I'm down and low, all I need is to see your face
In my dreams you come to me and show me how to find myself again
But time is never on my side and then I fall back down inside my pain
Sometimes I fall away,
I cannot find myself
Sometimes is not today
Sometimes when I want you to go all you do is stay
Sometimes all you do is talk but I don't hear a thing you say
There's no turning back from now I'm gonna have to live my life alone
Sometimes I fall away,
I cannot find myself
Sometimes is not today
Sometimes I go flying so high, my soul falls from grace
Sometimes when I'm down and low all I need is to see your face
In my dreams you come to me and show me how to find myself again
But time is never on my side and then I fall back down inside my pain
Sometimes I fall away,
I cannot find myself
When setting off with hidden dark on your back,
Slow and cold it is long.
No thought can choose and idyllic spot,
Out there improv one.
A cat black outside and within,
Driving on and away.
A calm help, implodic infringe,
Desire turns to whinge.
Some take the path of should be.
Some will kill life on knees.
To afraid to fly,
Imagine fantasize.
You seek the thrill to die,
Imagine fantasize.
Plastic brochure, the multi-end maze.
Dismissive present beauty.
Oblivious though it hasn’t yet gone,
Dive, sublime, improv one.
A strength bold, a vision escapes,
Throw the options no hold.
Oblivious though it hasn’t yet gone,
Will tell yourself what you’re told.
Some take the path of should be,
Some will kill life on knees.
Too afraid to fly.
Imagine fantasize.
You seek the thrill to die,
Imagine fantasize
Be alive and in pain,
Or dead but you’re sane.
Always, Improv one.
Black Messiah flying higher
Spread your words
For the wicked they are chosen
To hold the Crown of Penance
Your arrival is a blessing, I won't forget
Thousand ages of survival
To die oppressed by guilt
Your existence is not holy, you are Satan's child
We have taken death commandments
In sorrows name
Sacrilege through solemn spellbound
We congregate
Black Messiah! Your death desire
We shall serve as will!
Raise the chalice of disease
Summon the bringer of the pest
With the ancient rite of Plague
Comes the tragedy of the earth
As the funeral of an age
Comes the tragedy of the earth
Raise the chalice of disease
Summon the bringer of the pest
Be welcome, Raven of disease
Woke up this morning dizzy,
My head feels like the soul of someone's shoe.
Don't know where I am or how I got here,
I only know I cannot leave without you.
You came to save me,
Walked in my life and saved me,
Brought me the light and saved me,
Arghhh!
My life has lost it's direction,
My soul is lost in my reflection,
You abused me with your honesty,
And showed me that my life was slipping away from me,
You came to save me,
Walked in my life and saved me,
Brought me the light and saved me,
Arghhh!
I'll wake up tomorrow dizzy,
My head will feel like the soul of someone's shoe,
I won't know where I am or how I got there
I only know I cannot live without you
You came to save me,
Walked in my life and saved me,
Brought me the light and saved me,
Arghhh!
You came to save me,
Walked in my life and saved me,
Brought me the light and saved me,
To walk the earth
Spreading words of mercy
You are not wise enough
To speak like a preacher
You knocked at my door
You asked me to hear you
What a waste of time
You are a poor little man
Surrender to myself
Your lies now you will pay
Hanging from your cross
There is one more thing to do
I am gonna make you burn
(With the) tongues of Lucifer
Noise alerts, brightens the path,
Sun's in my head.
Plot vague course, deny any sense,
Roll some dices.
Amongst bright lights star paintings surround, Wash your life out.
Sharing a bite, vanish the white,
Go without doubts.
Warmth touches down,
The things id lost I feel again,
It’s all just coming back around,
But this is not my ground,
This shivers gold, I’m forever sold... (on this).
Sun comes around, further from town,
Found the feeling,
See planet as one, judging all that has gone, Share the meaning.
Comfort, elation, a warming sensation,
Pain is healing.
Knowing you know when you are what you are, And you are and you are. You
are.
Mind moves to two, auto body cannot hide,
Will you come to?
Will you learn how not to hide?
Don't want to hide, don't want to hide.
Now all has gone,
Except the one who's the One, who's the one?
Although not much left,
Warm feeds all you need, it’s the best.
Then all floats on, its ok it’s not gone,
It’s focused
What waves can you make, to push paths
And move space, it’s not too late?
Coz, Warmth touches down,
The things id lost I feel again,
It’s all just coming back around,
But this is not my ground,
This shivers gold, I’m forever sold...
This shivers gold,
Father, betrayer
Nameless, insidious
Mourner, destroyer
Patriarch of worms and rats
Mother, abortionist
Devoted, perverted
Sacred, hypocrite
Holy impious whore
When the time has come
I will summon you
Raise the precious crown
Every single chant
Every single prayer
Seven thousand tongues
On a grave-like throne
Ghosts and parasites
Point at me with cold dead eyes
My tongue a sword
My hands your tomb
I am damnation
