I'm hungry for life
For pleasures to come, years to fly
Still more and more and more
I'm thirsty for loneliness
The key to my happiness
When I dive into my own world
I'm the whole universe
The solitary life I adore
It boasts my confidence
Laying at the shores of solitude
I'm the world itself
But if I'm the world
And the world is God
Where shall I find my creator?
If He made me so hungry for power over the world

How could I ever have imagined that
I would find it that hard to survive
In this cold and meaningless Universe
God's death left an immense void in my soul
I can't feel any more...
My eyes pregnant with darkness
Giving birth to a demon each single second
Broken and wingless I am
A man without destiny
I never meant to be ungrateful!
Isn't there any redemption for this sinful soul?
Someone please come and take me by the hand

Devoid of all happiness
Condemned to eternal solitude
Not worthy to deserve
My Almighty Father's love
I was born with a sinner's heart
Although to Your laws, I did obey
My mind and body only throve
When I was immersed in sin
Rejected by my only Lord
Dishevelled by loneliness
Alone and aimless I moan
Outside Eden's gates
Suddenly from the shadows I'll emerge
I'll sink my rusted knife in His cold heart
The bastard God Who gave me life
Shall die now from my hands
On Your grace I kneel my Father,
And I ask you for forgiveness
Forgive me that I never could
Become what You wanted me to be
All my life I strove to be one of
Your very dearest children
Until I realized that Your endless love

Awakened to heavy silence, no sunrise in sight
Was that just one more dream that passed me by?
Smiling as it waved goodbye "you know how nothing can last"
Still we crave for brighter days though we still feel blind
Seems no-one warned us when somehow we'd lose our will
The joys of yesterday still seem a perennial breeze
But could we carry tomorrow's burdens with dignity?
Today, the boundless reach of doubt should set us free
As pilgrims bound to will, our doubt must set us free
Like every fallen star
Must wake just once more
To arise and shine
As it lits the way for the lost
Puppeteered by fate
Or free to our paths
We'll stand and run again

When suddenly at nights dark thoughts intrude your
peaceful sleep
And your dreams wander in places long-forgotten
When visions of loss and regret engrave their ugly
features on your skin
And you feel your purity slipping from your hands
When gradually you see the years you’ve lived turn into
statues
-The hopes and dreams you had, now cast in stone
And when the years that come appear to be stillborn
-When you reach out to touch them they have already gone
Please don’t let sorrow and grief make you bitter
With honesty and diligence search in your heart and find
The secret gift of your old innocence
And if by chance once, in a black winter night
As a casual trespasser on your way back home
Suddenly you spot a tragic figure writhed
Don’t let me quench blinded by my guilt
But like a Good Samaritan
Lend me a hand

In a God-forgotten land
Under the blazing hot sun
The stream of life showed me the way
Brighter than it ever had
I knelt to wash my weary head
But the water was ice-cold
In a God-forgotten land
Under the blazing hot sun
An angel sat under a tree
Just for a moment, to rest his wings
I knelt and touched his pale face

I feel the storm as it's coming near
It's raging mad, but I do not hear
And pretend that I don't mind it at all
But deep inside I'm praying, my Lord
That when I'm safe and the storm has cleared
I will turn around, and see You near
For then I would want You by my side
To help me rebuild the wreckage of my life
Around me I built a wall brick by brick,
And plagued by fear, I cannot sleep
A madman's laugh reminds me of my failures
Now on my own, the pain cuts deep
Could I finally find rest in some odd place

I risked my soul's redemption
For I'm dying to know
Whether annihilation awaits my soul
Or into hell's fire I'll be thrown
For I prefer to die knowing
Whether my life makes sense
Rather than live in piety
Hoping that this will save me from hell
Instead of those doubts inside
I'd rather succumb to Your wrath
Instead of this mental torment
I'd rather have Your judgement
The bitter taste of conscious guilt
Has rendered my heart ice-cold
As apathy takes over now
I wish You could tell me, my Lord
Why don't You answer my prayers
Why are you so silent and cold?
Did someone kill You as they say
Or did You ignore my call?
Damned and doomed,
Trapped in your intricate path
Unable to move towards the light
And find the truth before I die
Once You were my shepherd
Now tell me what could possibly
Cure me from this lethargy?
Be the guide to my last fall,
Be the witness of my defeat
Be there with me, a silent one
Your Word do not need,
Only Your presence
As I'm laying here peacefully
And a cold breeze sweeps my face
I can finally feel the secret of my existence
And the wind drops suddenly,
And the gates show me the only way

Ancient goddess, deity of forgiveness
Please, hear my prayer
Allow me to cleanse my sins
In the pure waters of your sacred river
A death in each second
A slow death in every moment
Everlasting mother!
O mighty shapestress of my soul
Save my restless spirit
From eternal damnation
My eyes I cannot close
I might die in my sleep
My god, I cannot feel...
This emptiness inside

Destroy Society, Erase your enemy
for trying to break you down
Shut down, Shut up, Give in, Give up
The only thing that exists in their poisoned mind
I'm not gonna take it anymore
This is my life, I wanna have control
I'm gonna make history
As I'm going on a crusade with my '44
Greed feel the greed
Greed taste the greed
He feeds of the other people's misery
The power is his greed
He's trying to play god with your life
But we all can see through
A lot of people have been suffering
And that gives him a kick
Push him against the wall
And let him taste your fist
Greed feel the greed
Greed taste the greed
For how long can a man hold his position
Do anything and still get away with it
What makes him so fucking special
A corrupted man with power as his only friend
Execution is the only justice
Justice...
Greed feel the greed

Ere on my bed my limbs I lay
It hath not been my use to pray
With moving lips or bended knees
But silently, by slow degrees
My spirit I to Love compose
In humble trust mine eye-lids close
With reverential resignation
No wish conceived, no thought expressed
Only a sense of supplication
A sense o'er all my soul impressed
That I am weak, yet not unblessed
Since in me, round me, every where
Eternal Strength and Wisdom are
But yester-night I prayed aloud
In anguish and in agony
Up-starting from the fiendish crowd
Of shapes and thoughts that tortured me
Sense of intolerable wrong
And whom I scorned, those only strong
Thirst of revenge, the powerless will
Still baffled, and yet burning still
Desire with loathing strangely mixed
On wild or hateful objects fixed
Fantastic passions! maddening brawl
And shame and terror over all
Deeds to be hid which were not hid
Which all confused I could not know
Whether I suffered, or I did
For all seemed guilt, remorse or woe
My own or others still the same
Life-stifling fear, soul-stifling shame
So two nights passed, the night's dismay
Saddened and stunned the coming day
Sleep, the wide blessing, seemed to me
Distemper's worst calamity
The third night, when my own loud scream
Had waked me from the fiendish dream
O'ercome with sufferings strange and wild
I wept as I had been a child
And having thus by tears subdued
My anguish to a milder mood
Such punishments, I said, were due
To natures deepliest stained with sin
For aye entempesting anew
The unfathomable hell within
The horror of their deeds to view
To know and loathe, yet wish and do
Such griefs with such men well agree
But wherefore, wherefore fall on me
To be beloved is all I need

I'm proud of myself. Honestly,
I don't need anyone to tell me what to do
I have eyes to see the beauty of the world
Ears to listen to the music of the spheres
Hands to greedily grab what I want
Feet to take me to my self imposed destiny
O my Lord, please tell me
Why then do I need You
To comfort me, to caress me, to care for me
To tell me what to do

We have one nanosecond
In the spectrum of time
Cause it's about the dead
It's all in your mind
Reality, senility
Human race, outer space
My head's about to overload
Explode, explode
Alien forces live inside my brain
I must obey them or I'll go insane
Procreation, cocentration
Penetration, ejaculation
My head's about to overload
Explode, explode
Explode, explode
Cold shots on the rocks
You know how it makes me feel
You better see, set me free
Don't give me no better deal
Anagram, sonogram
Looking for a thing that's real
All for sale, new ghost town
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
This black painted sign says:
"Jesus saves"
Ride on the highways
To an early grave
Remorse, intercourse
Voices from my alien force
My head's about to overload
Explode, explode
Cowboys From Hell on the radio
Turn it up now
Just as loud as it will go
Guitar bastards, cymbal crashers
Strobe light flashin', motel bashin'
My head's about to overload
Explode, explode
Explode, explode
Cold shots on the rocks
You know how it makes me feel
You better see, set me free
Don't give me no better deal
Anagram, sonogram
Looking for a thing that's real
Ultrasound, vocals down
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
We have one nanosecond
In the spectrum of
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
Time is something you can't steal
We have one nanosecond
In the spectrum of time

O, how it hurts
The sting of solitude!
I'm quenching on my own
My solitude is going to kill me
O, how they tighten
The ropes around my neck!
What have I done to myself?
From this self-made hell
Who is going to save me?
As I'm laying here
With my eyes closed
I can see you smiling, drowning in joy
I reach out my arms; beg to touch your face
But you stand there motionless
Waving from the other side
Childhood memories: tears of happiness in my eyes
Sitting in the middle of a crowded room
Around me joyous faces -those who loved me
They are all here for me -I'm the pride of the room
Beautiful paintings on the walls
Someone throws a match into the fireside...
Where are they now? Please, tell me!
As this pain cuts me in two
And nobody is here to heal my open wounds
Alone I am dying, alone I am crying
I pray for time to come and take
The remains of what seems to have been me...
Even the shadows of time have abandoned me
They left terrified by the empty look
On my scarred face
Time has forgotten me
I'm getting older every day but I never die
"The time has come to end your life: say a last goodbye to the world"
"I can't do such a thing"
"What are you waiting for? The world doesn't need you. Die like a honourable man"

How I long for the tender flesh
Of the Virgin
For the subdued look in her eyes
When she starts to suspect that
I'm the angel
Who is going to embrace her
I'm Jesus' father
And therefore God
Ignored by history

Nooit meer mijn hart zul je ineenkrimpen, in twee breken
Want het gevoel dat jou zo deed lijden, was de liefde voor niemand
Onpersoonlijke liefde, gericht op een glimlach, een speels blik, een gouden haarlok, de aanraking van een zacht lichaam
Zo zacht, sidderend zacht dat slechts de herinnering overblijft
Lijkt mij te beurt te zijn gevallen
Als een magneet lijkt deze liefde zonder gezicht
Alle momenten van eenheid en geluk naar zich toe te hebben getrokken
Egodstische liefde was het, en alles wat ook maar een beetje echt was
Werd als gebroken kristal over de grond gestrooid
Liefde voor iedereen was het, dacht ik
Liefde voor jou, voor hen, voor alleman
Maar de folterende pijn die me steeds overtuigde om voor allen te lijden
Was eigenlijk een waarschuwing: diep in mezelf wist ik, denk ik

We, the dead, can not understand
Why these mortals don't envy us
In silence and peace we rest, but we don't exist
We have so many things in common
Why are they afraid of us? We can't understand
Our lives are over, theirs have no meaning
What have they got that we don't have?
Beautiful is our realm
Our kingdom no one can resist
In solitude's eternal bliss

From a crack on my sealed window enters a ray of light
It falls down at the foot end of the bed
That I'm not going to leave (any more)
I curse you morning light, spot on my solitude
No one here to mourn with me the loss of hope in this life
The light that brings the day reminds me that I'm dead
I want to break out, I want to be free
And leave behind these chains that keep me captive
My life a ruin, it has ruined me
I smell my soul rotting; it fades away with the years
O bastard life, for too long you fooled me
You made me believe that you are worth to live
A growing fury, a growing pain
Enveloped my soul, paralysed my heart
Love is a lie, hope is a morbid joke
Every day the same old song
I want to break free from this vicious circle
To hear some words of comfort, to breathe some joy
I have passed the point of no return since long:
The gravity of this black hole is too strong
Look at me, disappearing within it's darkness
My God, it hurts more than I could possibly imagine!
I must cope with the emptiness
Which has weaved it's web around my soul
I've sunk in the abyss of desperation
And yet I'm here, a fool among the fools
The hour has come...
The angel of death looks me straight in the eyes
Like a basilisk
He stands there staring
With empty gaze- like an ancient statue
And tries to break the shield
Which guards my empty soul
But all those joyless years
Have eventually dried my tears
Drained every emotion of my well-worn body
Which slowly rots and disintegrates
The angel smells the stench of slow death
Disgusted, he disappears into the night
I cut my flesh with my broken nails
Enjoy the fluid of life flowing
The cancer has left my heart

You are on your own in your little world
And you drift away far away from here
On which cloud can I find you?
You have left this life behind
You met Jesus under the streetlight
I hope you found what you were looking for
I want you to be here, just be here
You have a look on your face
As if you don't know I exist
I disappeared from your radar
And what you are thinking about, I can only guess
Laying flat on your back
You remain lost
In this endless dream
Will you ever wake up to be with me?

When I'’ll die, my surrendered soul
Shall descend to the dark realms of Hades
To be judged by my ancient gods
And the mighty king Minos
Will step forward from the dark
Silently to fix his gaze upon my mind’s eye
His eyes like mirrors reflecting my whole past
But he’ll hang his head in sorrow
Tearful, he won’t bear the sight
For eternal sorrow has enveloped my soul
Eternal sadness, opportunities lost
To show you how I feel
And so you will –just like everyone else-
One day stand before the mighty judge
Your soul full of hatred for the injustice done to you
You thought you’d live forever
His eyes like mirrors reflecting your whole past
His head hung in sorrow…for he will be looking
At a hideous, unbearable sight
For eternal apathy has withered your soul
Eternal suffering has been brought upon me
As I couldn’t show you how I feel
Looking through the eyes of eternity at a failed past
that can’t be undone; struggling to understand how I
lost my hope; I turn to look behind me, but my Eurydice
is not there any more…I allow myself to float on the
waves of solitude; rebirth is not an option, so I must
accept. The wind shall carry away the memories, but the

“Why is it that whenever words sweet like honey
Linger at the tip of my tongue
As I open my mouth, a song of joy to sing
Voices of evil and discontent torture my poor mind?”
The voice of reason: “I am the voice of reason, the one and only truth
Your duties you will pay, there is no other way
But treason beckons here, as you allowed in
A very unwelcome guest who disturbed my rest
No, I can not tolerate another presence here
How can you feel the pain in my heart
When you haven't got one?
How can you see how much I suffer
When your eyes are shut?”
The voice of irrationality: “I'm your redemption so you'd better listen:
I am sick of your figures and your calculated risks
I abhor your arrogance, when with zeal you project guilt
Only where logic dies you can find true happiness
So forget your dues and your duties, give your instincts free rein”
The voice of Insanity: “In the land of the blind, I'm the one-eyed king
While the two dogs fight for the same bone
I'm seen running away with their meat
I'm the voice of insanity, the genius of the universe”

O life, you seem to turn your back to me
Devoid of hope, where can I go?
Without divine judgement and intervention
No one can live, no one can hope
It is to You, my Lord that I turn now
I proved myself more than once
Once You've tested humanity's faith
But now, I'll test Your strength
O pain, so real so everlasting
You break my heart and crush my soul
I see no way out of this but
I chose to live and suffer thee
That's why my Lord, in Your eyes I'll commit
One by one the seven gravest sins
Until Your righteous punishment shall rid me
Of every doubt about Your existence
You can't escape the pain
Of life's suffering
But how sweet it becomes when
It has a meaning
This meaning I found
In wrath, sin and grief
How strong is my hate!

Remember when you said that you don't need me any more
Success had finally come your way
You smiled and waved at me as you got into your car
A gallant knight held the door open
Alice what have you become? You have tumbled from your footing
Three years have passed since then but success abandoned you
Your empty gaze stares into infinity
What happened to your dreams? The flower has withered on your hair
And someone said you want to see me
Like a statue you've become that has fallen from its pedestal
Fall, with pleasure I will push you and I won't be there to help you
For all these years I have been dying now I'd like to see you crying
Fall, I won't shed a tear for you, I don't want and I don't need you
For all these years I have been dying now I'd like to see you crying

[Katatonia cover]
Through the bleak window of my soul
In marble halls of falling snow
Winter touch the Earth undone

If you ever stay awake at nights
Agonizing over all these dreams you left behind
If you looked back and you found you have never been
yourself
Did your thoughts go back to me?
Have you ever thought of a future without me?
Could there be a life, a happy life somewhere else?
If I tumble from a bridge looking at the rainbow
Would you roam unchained and free?
A rainbow will appear and you’ll get your chance, you’ll
You will find your way as you are searching in the dark
Deep within your soul, a fire slowly burns
A sacred shrine, your destiny
You live, live through me
You see through my eyes
How could you ever be free

Don't mourn now
for your lost life
and what did you do to deserve it?
it was just a bitter gift
Pull yourself together
and with your last strength
make a final prayer
thank for the precious present...
death
The emptiness
consumed your weary soul
ate you from inside
like a parasite
But death came
-like a prince on his white horse-
and set you free with a last, sweet kiss
Don't dwell now
like a ghost
around your dead body
flee into infinity
My God-forgotten love,
finally we'll meet again
when our both souls
dissolve into infinity...
death awaits
No time to dwell in limbo...
shadows are here to get you
how they want to embrace you in their cold arms
and drawn you in the pool of tears
of those who suffered because of your sins
Follow the right path
which leads to the astral constellation
where your soul enters the gate
before the light dies away
Save yourself from them
the creatures without a shape
have followed you in your last trip
You are safe again
you entered the portal
their black arms couldn't get you
Wait for me there
as you sit motionless
with you arms around your knees

Right before there's light
Right before, this night
Right before the dice
We'll rise aloft Earth's heights
For five minutes we'll just lie
Give minutes, close our eyes
Five minutes, like a child
For just five, I'll hum a lullaby to you
Then we'll glide as sounds, you and I

1000 years of solitude
1000 years of pain
hardened my heart
fed my poor soul with misery
I can't even tell
am I dead, am I alive?
Don't hesitate, penetrate me with your sting
I don't know how to cry
I won't even bleed
Don't even worry if I might die
At least then I'll know that I was alive
1000 years of isolation
the closer to you, the lonelier I get
I could vanish in your presence
You wouldn't even notice
