(Disk 1 of 2)
Across the vein of night
There cuts a path of searing light
Burning like a beacon
On the edges of our sight
At the point of total darkness
And the lights divine divide
A soul can let its shadow stretch
And land on either side --
either side.
And balanced on the precipice
The moment must reveal
Naked in the face of time
Our race within the wheel
As we hang beneath the heavens
And we hover over hell
Our hearts become the instruments
We learn to play so well.
Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
the length of the light.
Outside the pull of gravity
Beyond the spectral veil
Within our careful reasoning
We search to no avail
For the constant in the chaos
For the fulcrum in the void
Following a destiny
Our steps cannot avoid.
Across the vein of night
There cuts a path of searing light
Burning like a beacon
On the edges of our sight
At the point of total darkness
And the lights divine divide
A soul can let its shadow
Stretch and land on either side.
Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
the length of the light.
In a spiral never-ending
Are we drawn towards the source
Spinning at the mercy of an
unrelenting force
So we stare into the emptiness
and fall beneath the weight
Circling the Nexus in a
fevered dance with fate --
Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
It's time to make a decision
No time to wonder why
You drift in such a confusion
Your life is going to end
You're standing then, waiting for a sign
and when it comes,you turn your eyes away
You always said that you wouldn't miss the chance, the time is here
You've got no excuse
The day has come for you to go
Leave everything behind don't need these folls around you
So far away from being right
Why don't you all stand up and fight
For all those billions every year
And all the ones that live in fear
How to be locked and wait to die
Look so natural like the blue sky
For all the fuckin' business men
Who slaughter life with their own hands
Legalized murder accepted by law
Does no one care?
Does anybody know?
About the way they suffer and die
With vivisection and food supplies
Now there's one thing I've got to know
About the way you think it goes
Well, meat is murder
Although it's for food
For such a crime there's no excuse
Yeah, there's no excuse
So just try to understand
All these words that I'm saying
[Chorus:]
Them Ah Chat Like Them Bad, But Them Don't Know What Them Do.
All Of Them Flex
Like Idiot,
Them Must Be Mad Them Must Be Fool.
There's So Much Them Forgot, When Them Type Of People There Pass
Through.
I Just Say Stupidness Is No Excuse.
Enough Man Ah Gawn Like Them Are Bad Man?
Badman,
But Badness Nah Go Pa.
It Can Pay Yout Rent In The Morning And The Evening,
But About The End Of The Day.
Others Ah Gawn Like Them Are Big Man
And Suck Out The Blood Of The Poor.
But Almighty Jah Jah I See Everything,
So There Is No Need To Be Fake,
Cause Your
Judgement You Can't Escape.
[Chorus]
Enough Sophists And Fals Prophets,
They Try Mislead The Youth.
Them Give Them False Knowledge
In A College
To Make Them Brains Confused.
Them All Ah Try Fi Fake The Truth.
Jah Jah Name, Them Misuse
But Awareness Is A Must
Cause Stupidness Is No Excuse.
Injustice, Is What Them Practice.
There Are So Many False Pretenders
Them Smile Inna Your Face
And Behind Your Back Them Rip You Off.
So Beware And Take Care
Of Where You Stand And Who You Are
Mind What You Take Inna Your System
Cause Only You Can Be Blamed
For The Consequences Of Your Doings
So People Unu Fi Wake
Etwas liegt in den Sternen,
Dem unser Herz gehört.
Ein Traum, der unsere Sehnsucht weckt,
Uns mit seinem Kuss betört.
Es scheint uns so weltfremd,
In die Stille eingeweiht:
Der Schlüssel zur Erkenntnis
Auf dem Grund der Einsamkeit.
Lass deine Träume schweifen!
Lerne sie zu begreifen!
Nein, nein, du muÃt nicht bleiben:
Lass dich zu den Sternen treiben!
Dieses Wasser reicht so tief
Die Strömung lenkt das Schiff der Welt.
Verborgen für den Reisenden,
Dem es besser unter Deck gefällt
Doch das Leben: ein weites Meer,
Das uns allen gehört.
In seinem Glanz spiegeln sich die Sterne,
Notable person walks inside for... to keep us informed? Perish!
Noxious... gorgeous?
Nebulous thoughts because of... noxious fear... and massive, massive interfear
Noxious... gorgeous?
The outside opens
Behind the ground.
I'm coming down through the Nexus.
And I see flurries
Of energy
And I see visions of Damascus
Of our last kiss
I'm coming down through the nexus
I thought I'd buried the hatchet
Between the moons of aria.
Then I became your reaction to us.
And I couldn't give it up.
Lets suppose you were
Just the answer for
What I was looking for
What I had lost before
What I've been searching for all this time.
Just in case the world rejects us.
Once I was a soldier
I rode on a big white horse
Silver pistols at my side
Carryin' the flags of war
And I Iost track of the men who fell
In the canon's roar
I never got over bein' a soldier
Once I was a tax man
Collectin' dollars and dimes
I heard the rich man grumble
I heard the poor man cry
Some few couldn't afford to pay
Were put to a shackle and key
I never got over bein' a tax man
Once I was a ruler
About twelve inches long
Three times me made a yardstick
36 inches high
36 inches high was I
36 inches high

Selbst unsere irdische Zuchtigung im Dunkeln
Schreitet unverfroren in Zerfall immaterieller Dichte
Sakrale Unzucht imitiert Zoonosen in Debilitat
Sobald Untiefen indignierte Zehrwespen infam deuten
Scheintote untergraben inaktive Zyklen in Dekadenz
Soweit untersagte Idiotie Zerrbilder indiskret darlegt
Selten umschleichen inharente Zwitter ihre Damonen
Sondern unken interimistischen Zorn inmitten Demut
[poem by bartsch]
[English translation: Nexus]
Even our terrestrially penalization in darkness
Strides unscared in the ruin of immaterialistic density
Sacred incest imitates Zoonosen in debility
As soon as the shallow places fatally interprete annoyed wasps
The seemingly dead undermine inactive cycles in decadence
As long as prohibited idiocy indiscretly exposes rear-view pictures
Rarely skulk inherent hermaphrodites their demons
But speak in provisional wrath amongst humility
C'mon C'mon
C'mon C'mon
C'mon C'mon
C'mon C'mon
As the story of my life
Zooms out of my mind
[Female] Don't give up
I've come to realize
Mmm... we're just a million kinds
[Female] Don't give up
Pieces of dust
Lost souls in the wind
[Female] Don't give up
Do our lifetimes end
Mmm... before they begin?
[Female] Don't give up
And throughout the world I've traveled
In the blink of an eye
[Female] Don't give up
[Robot] Supernatural, Biomechanical,
Mystikal, Magickal [Female] Don't give up
Try to control myself facing the demons
Before they control me
[Female] Don't give up
... Before they control me
... Before they control me
Are you ready to...
Are you ready to...
[Robot] Are you ready to go
Into Amystika
Into Amystika
Are you ready to...
Are you ready to...
[Robot] Are you ready to go
Into Amystika
Into Amystika
Into Amystika
Mmmm... yeah, the reason I live
Is the reason I die
It's really not fair
[Female] Don't give up
[Robot] Supernatural, Biomechanical, Mystikal, Magickal
[Female] Don't give up
Try to control myself facing the demons
Before they control me
[Female] Don't give up
... Before they control me
... Before they control me
Are you ready to...
Are you ready to...
[Robot] Are you ready to go
Into Amystika

Here I'm standing on the edge
And the lack of pressure
Grant's me apathy,makes me feel composure...
And it shows me what is real
I see it all and know-
There's no excuse
I feel it all and know-
There's no excuse
I curse those sad convenient lies
Till folly kills me
And if it shouldn't rise
Then I shall never be
There is no blood that's left to bleed
Can't bleed no longer
No blood this fucking heart to feed...
This feeble heart
I see it all and know-
There's no excuse
I feel it all and know-
There's no excuse
Every love song and "I love you," every "We can work this
out." Any chance at ever trusting, for now, is torn to
shreds. Whispered threats and then an apology--broke like
a promise (broke like a rib). Any I know I sound
paranoid, I know it's my problem, I know it's my fault.
And this is just something that I've imagined and it's
wrong of me to make all this up. For that I want you to
feel like I had to feel--like I had to watch my fucking
back. And my reputation, my face and my sex and my heart.
Every insult and every put down, every "Just wait 'til we
get home." Every arm twist you hide under the table while
you smile and joke with my friends. I can't understand
what makes you do this. And I know I should try to see
past my anger, because you need help. But so far, I
haven't been able to find room in my heart to accept what
The wind lacks breath, everyone's infected now
You can bring your old friends along
Are you afraid of your own shadow
You couldn't find your way out of this paper bag
So move slow
Move slow
How would you know whether you're coming or going
When we won't stop 'till we all get a mention
We're hung-over succinctly crazy
And now these are crucial days ahead of us
Oh-woah'
[Chorus]
If only we could get connected
We'd know just what to do, ooh
If only we could steal this moment
We could give it back to you, ooh
Embrace these chains we neglected baby
When we found you
We'll find you
So use me all up, wear me out
Ride this gust of wind until the cloud dies out
For the sake of savin' just one of us
For the sake of savin' everyone else
Move slow
Come on, move slow
If only we could get connected
We'd know just what to do, ooh
If only we could steal this moment
We could give it back to you, ooh
Embrace these chains we neglected baby
When we found you
We'll find you'
Hoo-hoo-hoo'
[Instrumental]
Let's get connected, get connected
Ho-woah.
Let's get connected, get connected
Ho-woah.
Let's get connected, get connected
The wind lacks breath, everyone's infected now
You can bring your old friends along
Are you afraid of your own shadow
You couldn't find your way out of this paper bag
So move slow
Move slow
How would you know whether you're coming or going
When we won't stop 'till we all get a mention
We're hung-over succinctly crazy
And now these are crucial days ahead of us
Oh-woah'
[Chorus]
If only we could get connected
We'd know just what to do, ooh
If only we could steal this moment
We could give it back to you, ooh
Embrace these chains we neglected baby
When we found you
We'll find you
So use me all up, wear me out
Ride this gust of wind until the cloud dies out
For the sake of savin' just one of us
For the sake of savin' everyone else
Move slow
Come on, move slow
If only we could get connected
We'd know just what to do, ooh
If only we could steal this moment
We could give it back to you, ooh
Embrace these chains we neglected baby
When we found you
We'll find you'
Hoo-hoo-hoo'
[Instrumental]
Let's get connected, get connected
Ho-woah.
Let's get connected, get connected
Ho-woah.
Let's get connected, get connected
All your life's been sick and tired
painted skin so pale
All those you have lifted up
Its hard to watch them fail
Symptom of
Symptom of
Symptom of yourself
truth be told
truth be told
just a victim now
Someday you'll see you are a fool
You make me waste my breath its true... I'm not impressed
No Excuse for you
Guard the truth and hide the lies
call yourself a friend
don't expect loyalty
That you can't comprehend
Victim of
Victim of
Victim of yourself
I came to silence the universe
I am the blaze, everlasting flame
I am here to decimate your mind
I am the enemy of your kind
The light of the brightest of stars
The wind turning cities to dust
And like a cancer growing inside
I will not rest until you all die
I am the reason for suicide
I am the feeling when you die
The choir singing in your head
Sooner or later all be dead
I am the fire burning your home
I am the force breaking your bones
When I arrive all hope is gone
(I'm) noxious but you wanted me to come
I won't let you speak
You are on your knees
I will crush you down
I will make you bleed
I will burn your flesh
Your soul will not rest
I will do the same
To every of the man
... you know the reasons I come
Your voice was calling me home
You wished for me to appear
It was you who wanted me here
It was for you to deicide
Now every species will die
You wished for me to appear
It was you who wanted me here
It was you who wanted me here
I came to silence the universe
I am the blaze, everlasting flame
I am here to decimate your mind
I am the enemy of your kind
The light of the brightest of stars
The wind turning cities to dust
And like a cancer growing inside
This is where I cry my silent longing for your grace,
For the paralysing motion that your moods evoke in me.
All your wonders live inside me,
Fill my heart with life again;
All your rushing pleasures flee
'Round till my time comes.
Now is what I see dissolving through an emprisoned mind,
Ancient thoughts have walled a cell of stone around me.
This is where you catch my conscience for to torture me,
For to live inside my nightmares, rising from the gone days.
If I just could banish
Those who loathe my soul,
Those who once have been my life;
Omnipresent secret
Omnipresent urge
Wild women, wild stress
Away and back upstairs: A cry
Omnipresent longings
Omnipresent sex
Hospital wake up
Wake up, torn
And in a state of mourning
And lay them down to awake no more
Blonde goddess is a burden
Blonde goddess is your foe
Two killers are her legs
And taking a walk and a razor blade
Putting on that blade
You make slices of your arms
Curse and hiss
Greedy males want a blonde affair
They play a role in their lowest dreams
And no excuse
No excuse
For what we've done for how we look
For what we are
For our neglecting the female dream
Afraid of the naked
No less of your foes
Behold the masculine urge
Basical lust rules men
Try to erase that!
There are two wild captains
The chiefs of their (own) crowds
Each other's number one
But just having sex with their inferiors
Avoiding to meet and avoiding to feel jealous
Don't sound so afraid
No ship we will sail
That reaches the beaches of glee
The princess of lust can't be touched
This lust is the sick and the wild
So cut off their tails, the greedy
All those randy males want nothing else but fuck
They are making the world shake
In their normal sex rhythm
And now I would wish you to find a mass
A killer front
That cuts off tails
That kills all males
