Mikey Bustos (born June 23, 1981) is a Filipino Canadian singer who has appeared on the reality television show Canadian Idol.
Bustos is from the Weston neighbourhood of Toronto. Before Canadian Idol, he worked as a temp at the Bank of Montreal.
Bustos placed seventh runner-up in the finals of Canadian Idol Season One in August 2003, despite Chart magazine's prediction: "If we were to lay our bets today, ChartAttack’s money would be on Toronto contestant Mikey Bustos, a slightly strange looking young man with a shaved head and the voice of an angel." From his very first audition where he floored the four judges, he established the largest fan base early in the competition, and made headlines all over the country.[citation needed]
Bustos recorded with BMG Canada/Vik Recordings for the Canadian Idol compilation album, which was certified Gold on the Soundscan Billboard charts on second day of release, and ranked in the Top 5 best selling Canadian albums in its debut week, selling over 60,000 units nationwide.[citation needed]

Lyrics: Laitinen
Obscuring mourning of blood
Powers of beyond oppress me
Death falls from dismal eternity
Slain souls shall scream forever
Bringing calm into my existence
I walk away from false belief
He who created my dreams
Shall now be forgotten
In my time of blasphemy
Thoughts of my darkened being
God has incured in pain
I struggle through trials
I have chosen my path
I travel into uttermost shades
Creatures are now awaken
In flames they shall tell
Music: Lindén
Lyrics: Lindén, Kiiski
Obscure mass of silenced souls
Drifting misery, frozen shapes
Numbed herd entrance with fear
Kingdom dead, silenced life
Depressions of the soul
Emotions from the darkest mind
Darkness dwells in your fading spirit
Ominous silence of misery
As thee lay beneath
Fear obscures from within
Supremacy, pay homage to the grief
Mourning, the waves of dismay
Darkness dwells in your fading spirit
Ominous silence of misery
As thee lay beneath
Fear obscures from within
Agony and dismay
Unforeseen dimension unfolds
Depressions of the soul
Emotions from the darkest mind
Supremacy, pay homage to the grief
Music: Lindén
Lyrics: Kiiski, Lindén, Laitinen
Grip of dark eternity
Dwell in infinite misery
Through darkening I came
With agony I now reign
Thee, the suffering soul
Deceased dwell below
Thee, shall be despised
As I'll by thy lord
Thee, the perished
In the shadows beneath
Veiled are the dying souls from reality
Towards the shrouded infinity
The dawn of gods
Shall bring the truth
For the lifeless
In the shadows beneath
Thee, the suffering soul
Deceased dwell below
Thee, shall be despised
As I'll by thy lord
Thee, the perished
In the shadows beneath
Veiled are the dying souls from reality
Deification of blackened skies
Towards the shrouded infinity
Lifeless are their minds
In the embrace of death
In infinity awakened souls
Shall remain forlorn
The journey through eternities
Mists and blackened skies
I became the one
Beyond all mortal purity
Thee, the suffering soul
deceased dwell below
Thee, shall be despised
As I'll by thy lord
Thee, the perished
In the shadows beneath
Veiled are the dying souls from reality
Music: Lindén
Lyrics: Kiiski
Consumed bodies to the depths
Awakened souls dwell all
Arising sinister dawn
Awake the eternal
The world of lost existence
Perpetual, obscure kingdom
Illusion of paradise is lost
Music & Lyrics: Lindén
In darkness
Your soul is now free
Morbid illusion
Entombed in frozen ground
Divagate in obscurity
Obscene frost of eternity
Disgusting mortal existence
Cruelty of nocturnal paradise
I shall dwell
In eternal obscurity
Unholy adoration
Of suffocation
Mortify and despise
The mind of the chosen one
I'm the deadsoul of darkness
Uncertain endurance
Who will stand last
Seeker of salvation
Seer of horrors
Defense mechanism
All seen before
Desperate answer
Foregone conclusion
The longer you resist
More rage it will have in return
The nature's trail
Cracks your humanity into pieces
The last witness
Of this fearsome act to come true
See, I am
The hand that you raised against yourself
Unnamed king
On a disease's breaker
Threat prevention
Feeding the fire
Silent murderer
Surge of hysteria
Need is one to blame
Hell finally teaches
To see the last one die
To see the last one die
To see the last one die
To see the last one die
The longer you resist
More rage it will have in return
The nature's trail
Cracks your humanity into pieces
The last witness
Of this fearsome act to come true
See, I am
The hand that you raised against yourself
The pain between birth and death
Comfort awaits unexpected fate
Music: Lindén
Lyrics: Laitinen, Lindén
Through horizon I am dreaming
I sense the mourning of skies
Desolate sands forming below me
Mortals are gathered for the passing
Smoke rises from the earthly past
I hear the dirge of morning dusk
I'm drifting into the beauty of darkness
Black abyss of damnation
Feel the grief that is eternal
Solitude of darkest sorrow
No illumination
Misery holds me with an immense grip
I fall into the beauty of darkness
The forlorn
Powers shall remain
To seize with pain
Eternity awaits me
Horrors of misery
But I never dreamt to be sane
Music: Lindén, Kiiski
Lyrics: Lindén
The wind that whispers within my sorrow
Has calmed my dreams and created depression
But I saw those tears that were pouring
Down from the once called paradise
Tears of god
Darken unholy domain
So cold in the touch of dismay
Bitterness shrouds me into eternity
Ceased as I am the damned soul
You forsook me left me succumb alone
Descending into paradise
Where all is forsaken
Towards the oblivion
Macabre damnation
Behold me I shall rule
All the shrouded eternity
The grief from below
My domain the everlasting
Tears of god
Music & Lyrics: Lindén, Kiiski
I shall befall thee
In the sullen halls of dark oblivion
In an evintide of abysmal grief
Hybrid form of life
Hidden from the immortal
Your soul will burn through time
The dark realm dwells in no light
Dismal dreams of lives forgotten
In the visions of my slumber
They lie silent in chasms
The bleeding eyes of sorrow
The gathering of miserable beings
Grievous existence underwent to the end
In blackness they mourn
The soul of sorrow now bleed in tears
I shall befall thee
In the sullen halls of dark oblivion
In an evintide of abysmal grief
Hybrid form of life
Hidden from the immortal
Your soul will burn through time
The dark realm dwells in no light
Dismal dreams of lives forgotten
In the visions of my slumber
They lie silent in chasms
The bleeding eyes of sorrow
Frozen eyes gazing to stillness
Beckoning into the dark
Summoned to the vale of tears
To feel the appearance of grief
no way out of this hell
solitude holds me throuhg time
misery found a way to my heart
tears raining upon my path
memory of the time
I lie silent with earth
awakened to eternity
in search for my paradise
I am lost on my way
the path darkened by others
my earthly remains decay
memory of the time
I lie silent with earth
awakened to eternity
you gave me everything
you gave me this pain
you gave me this world
(lyrics by Laitinen/Kiiski)
Follow my way of thinking
True human way of life
Lay yourself on my seed
Depart from your kind
I am your father
I am your son
The start and the end
In time you´ll see
Heal yourself from yourself
Act without emotion
I am the upward direction
Your insuperable fate
You thought life is a gift
Let truth speak for itself
The course for you is settled
You are now on my leash
Dreaming of this dominance
Ruined by your impotence
See the reverse side of life
Come and hide your excuses
You thought life is a gift
Let truth speak for itself
The course for you is settled
You are now on my leash
I am your father
I am your son
The start and the end
Come to me my child
Love my god, but worship me
I am your despair
So fear the beast
Given in to my lust
Keep my secrets deep within
Take my god, take my beast
Come to dark
Monster
Hater
Killer of my dreams
Monster
Hater
Cloaked in light
His dark mind
Leave me be my child
I've confessed, forgiveness is mine
I am now so pure
I'm in the light
On your knees monster
Fear did surely die in me
Hate implicates death
Taste the steel
Monster
Hater
Killer of my dreams
Monster
Hater
Cloaked in light
His dark mind
Monster
Hater
Killer of my dreams
Monster
Hater
Cloaked in light
His dark mind
Unleash me in your sleep
See all dark through me
Liquid ground, semen of death
Uncontrollable, rage of the earth
No sympathy, for a dying wish
TYhe blade will cut, beginner's luck
Fragile lives, bloody feathers
No sky to fly, my land deprived
Severe justice, end of evolution
Closing time, end of evolution
Tired provider, expected outcome
No one heard, no one learned
No sympathy, for a dying wish
The blade will cut, beginner's luck
Fragile lives, bloody feathers
No sky to fly, my land deprived
Severe justice, end of evolution
Closing time, end of evolution
One step down in the food chain
Pride, the last thing you can swallow
Transparent, characteristic
Wake up to be late from your life
Liquid ground, semen of death
Uncontrollable, rage of the earth
Fragile lives, bloody feathers
No sky to fly, my land deprived
Severe justice, end of evolution
Closing time, end of evolution
For the unwanted
One step down in the food chain
Pride, the last thing you can swallow
Transparent, characteristic
Wake up to be late from your life
Lurk over the unknown
It is time for you to step aside
Recreation, correction
Music: Lindén, Kiiski
Lyrics: Laitinen
I see the soul of my god
In darkness I must find
From the shadows of the time
I crush the master in his realm
In the path of god
Evil awakes
Primitive creation
My fool guardian, I must end
I bring the torment for the living
Corpses screaming in obsession
The gates of rotting dead opened
The world shall now be darkened
Perishment of existence
A desert of sinister decay
Journey of grief
Carrying the remains in tears
Rotting of the weak
Dark hills buried in souls
Dimensions of divine death
I behold the stream of blessedness
In blood the birth drowns
Dark lords predict for moaning souls
Perishment of existence
A desert of sinister decay
Journey of grief
Carrying the remains in tears
Rotting of the weak
(Lyrics by Esa Lindén)
I'm coming from the place unknown to me
Guess it's my insane personality
I need to find peace for my mind
For there where I was I only dealt with pain
The silent voice echoes in my head
Aware but I am frightened to dead
I know I'm alone without protection
Oh, please save me from these burning illusions
The fire that burns inside my soul
The flame in disguise burns my sight
The fire confuses my weary mind
Is it my head that makes me suffer?
Burning illusions - Tear my being apart
Blinded eyes do see - Shattered identity
The silent voice echoes in my head
Aware but I am frightened to dead
I know I'm alone without protection
Oh, please save me from these burning illusions
The fire that burns inside my soul
The flame in disguise burns my sight
The fire confuses my weary mind
Music & Lyrics: Lindén
Mortals, perished
Blood has been shed
The lord, master of darkness
Desecrates the purity
Creator of coldness
Has calmed the path of life
As paradise covers
The tombs of mortality
Blood of the perished (repeat)
Incantations I have heard
This dismal grip, shall I be lost
Coldness takes me below
Now I'm one with darkness forever
Creator of coldness
Has calmed the path of life
As paradise covers
Music: Lindén
Lyrics: Laitinen, Lindén
Forsaken and lost
Alone below the darkest realm
Through the eyes of suffering
I have seen the gods from beyond
Fathers of time
behold and forsake
Bring an end to our timeless existence
The almighty has fallen
No god to rule the vacant throne
As darkness takes over
The dark overlord shall dominate
The fools who seek eternal peace
Shall wither slowly to suffer
Again to reach the shores of death
We must be one with darkened earth
As we are shadows in this dismal mist
We shall hear the moan of our gods
Cloak of darkness, the lord of all
Upon this valley of utter nothingness
May the periphery
Of ancient wisdom
Remain merciful
Seen by your eyes
I stare into the void
Hearing me move
I hear nothingness
Your breath on my neck
I'm gasping for air
Put down by the beast
I crawl in my own dirt
You set the fire on me
The fire that burns my fire
Walls around closing in
Cracking my vision
Fading my strength
I'm choking on your sweat
Somewhere below raging storms
In the moist dark unconcious
Together with another soul
Far apart but still the same
Replacing now my own soul
To obtain the strength to see again
Fiery soul cleansing
True mind erasing
Gods only method
And I'm facing it
Pain means healing
Objective lashing
Adaptable being
Must become deaf
You set the fire on me
The fire that burns my fire
Endless grinding
Called for bowing
Non stop feeding
All must be swallowed
One option remaining
No way of hiding
I can see...
At the gates of still and cold domain
Where sinister clouds were filling up
the sphere they watcthed
There in nothingness nothing ever existed
Except the freezing wind that so many perished
Inside this lifeless
Cradle of damnation
Darkness below death
Your eyes shall be opened
Again
The dark beauty is now in shades
To break your world of tranquility
Echoes of nothingness
Burned sights will kill your faith in god
Your god has gone astray
You unfathered fool
Seal your fate
Forevermore... Lamentation
At the gates of still and cold domain
where sinister clouds were filling up
the sphere they watcthed
There in nothingness nothing ever existed
Their quiet sighs
Will follow your trail
Their endless pain
Will haunt you in dreams
Silence the guilt
They made you feel
Deep in your heart
Deaf, dumb and blind
You can not feel the guilt and shame
You can not heal, they bleed cause of you
You can not feel the guilt and shame
You can not grow, they bleed cause of you
Their painful cries
Now twisting your truth
Your soul like ice
Standstill and cold
Their freezing touch
Now grasping your soul
Look at yourself
Deaf, dumb and blind
You can not feel the guilt and shame
You can not heal, they bleed cause of you
You can not feel the guilt and shame
You can not grow, they bleed cause of you
You can not feel
the guilt and shame
You can not heal
You can hear them speak
The remnants of your past
What joy can they bring
When all they want is to suppress
Those eyes lurking behind
The dust you breathe in
Thirst will never leave you
Needles stick in your throat
Those creatures at your door
They keep you awake
Constant stare you feel
The aim that you run for is lost
Those eyes lurking behind
The dust you breathe in
Thirst will never leave you
Needles stick in your throat
Walls of your home collapsing
Only safe place is now a trap
The beast is roaring louder
Stand-up tall for defense
Sad way to save it all
They're laughing at you
Laughing at you
Those eyes lurking behind
The dust you breathe in
Thirst will never leave you
The fear of looking inside
The pain of my life
The memories are so real
The scars grow so deep
The pain of my life
The shame that I feel
Crying, all colours fade to grey
Drowning in tears I fade away
Away from the light
The pain of my life
The shame that I feel
Crying, all colours fade to grey
Drowning in tears I fade away
The essence of innerself
Horrors burn my eyes
So real... the pain inside
Falling... I'm drifting away
Falling... Drifting away
Away from the sun
Falling... Drifting away
What triggered this treachery
One way lane to extinction
Through my skin into ones mouth
To be spit back on my face
You blew the air in
You got my blood out
But to you I'm not dead
Still not dead enough
Powered by the machine
Getting empty from the inside
So virtual and unreal
No life should end like this
You blew the air in
You got my blood out
But to you I'm not dead
Still not dead enough
Someone waiting for a birth
I've wasted my life for it
The order that I scorn
The order I must die for
Heal me anyway you can
End my cold life functions
Feed me no more
No longer should I be
Not dead enough - You blew the air in
Not dead enough - You got my blood out
Not quite alive - But to you I'm not dead
Still not dead enough
Burn me over and over again
Birth of new life
Hope of this world
Smothered since birth
Estranged of what is true
Elders their dreams are lies
Spoken behind my back
Piercing through my mind
I don´t see what you see
Stagnant this view I see
Frozen deep within
Raving in lunacy
I am lost within
Strange man in me
Unleashed my hate
Stares back through hell
In darkness I dwell
Aimless path
To the end
Forever
Your words betray
Stagnant this view I see
Frozen deep within
Raving in lunacy
I am lost within
Cresfallen life
Your words betray
Crestfallen life
Dead in my dark memory
When did I die?
Nearly lost grip for my life
I've opened my eyes
I feel regret for being struck
Since my sorry birth
I am done with the memory
Of this life I had
From the depths of self pity
I rise above everything
I'm now one with the liberty
To control my head
I drowned my boiling emotions
Feeding unconscious
I've reached the surface finally
Not knowing the outcome
Why crawl when life turns an option
From the deepest hatred
No rest from thoughts unspeakable
My treacherous dawn
From the depths of self pity
I rise above everything
I'm now one with the liberty
To control my head
My mind works intensively
Perspective narrows
I can focus on one thing
When dark turns black
I've found outlet for my soul
For what is inside
I hate everything and everyone
In my pride of rage
From the depths of self pity
I rise above everything
I'm now one with the liberty
To control my head
Tell me am I human anymore
Can I feel like this?
I will never turn my other side again
I remember her standing by the window
So innocent and beautiful
I remember her crying bitter tears
Trying to cope in her loneliness
I saw pain in her eyes
Heard her desperate silent cries
I couldn´t stand there for you
I remember her listening every night
Whispering wind in the silent air
I remember her struggling against pain
Withering away by every single day
I saw pain in her eyes
Heard her desperate silent cries
I couldn´t stand there for you
I remember her listening every night
Whispering wind in the silent air
I remember her crying bitter tears
There is no upward direction
See the timeworn hands
Inured to coldness
To act and die martyr
Murder for your precious misery
Wear the crown in front of the blind
Smell the dry blood on your hands
Enchain your greed, let the chaos prevail
Never knowing the moment
A need to be recognized
Ground of ignorance
Portrait of a lie
Thrown away from comfort
Distraught with grief
Insufficient sacrifice
Starter for the rage
Revalue the adoration
Shorten the frequency
Loosen the strangulation
Revalue the adoration
Shorten the frequency
Fill the hollow mind
Revalue the adoration
Shorten the frequency
Loosen the strangulation
Revalue the adoration
Shorten the frequency
Fill the hollow mind
Never knowing the moment
A need to be recognized
Ground of ignorance
Portrait of a lie
Thrown away from comfort
Distraught with grief
Insufficient sacrifice
Starter for the rage
Murder for your precious misery
Wear the crown in front of the blind
Smell the dry blood on your hands
Clear thinking, less words
Pure eye view, sterile mind
Dark visitor, fierce intruder
Born in fear, breed in disgust
Cause, produce - smaller cut
Cause, produce - bigger effect
Cause, produce - smaller cut
Cause, produce - perfect parasite
See all taken, see all end
This ceremony, slow, but certain
Speak it back, blood the stimulant
Orgiastic pain, cleanest burn
Cause, produce
Cause, produce
Perfect parasite
Framework for life
Survival through death
Scatter your filth
Through your cult of sickness
Clear thinking, less words
Pure eye view, sterile mind
Paralyzed vision, black language
Of unfeeling soul, sleepless reign
Cause, produce - smaller cut
Cause, produce - bigger effect
Cause, produce - smaller cut
In between time
The sun has set forever
Tranquil, silent state
Worlds eldest wisdom
This place of all known fears
Minds unfound corner
Peace seeks its way to hold
Until they return
Suppressed... unreal
No sigth no ground to walk
So down you reel... derailed
Deeper you will stray
Halos and flashing lights
Haunting endlessly
Scared and cornered
Driven to the limit
Parting of the conciousness
Delusions of mirages
Natural order of all things
Relentless reign
When they reveal in flesh
You'll see what you are made of
Call for light and find out
The truth'll push you down
The sand in your veins
Melt into fear
The flame in you dies
As you drown in blood
Suppressed... unreal
No sigth no ground to walk
So down you reel... derailed
Deeper you will stray
Suppressed... unreal
No sigth no ground to walk
So down you reel... derailed
Every life you devoured
Will haunt you unending
The flesh between your teeth
The flesh created by your mother
Fantasize about forgetting everything
Dream of taking steps back
They mock your efforts
Your shameful hour of regret
Their hammers - your deeds
No use shutting your eyes
Raw picture of reality
Your superiority
Open game
Measure your chances
Seek out a hole small enough
It will come down to you
Like rain slashing your wounds
Can you see it now
Imagine taking your last breath
Arrive to your punishers
I am blessed with an instrument of determination
Concession leads to forgiveness
My phobia's to see a heretic rise to power
Forgiveness means defeat
Baptized in enmity
Craftsmen of killing
Passion for order
Uncompromising will
With emptiness I suffocate your false ideals
For theory of balance you must end
Make your stand before your final occupier
I will not persevere
Baptized in enmity
Craftsmen of killing
Passion for order
Uncompromising will
Illiterate writer
All unwritten hate inside
Nameless leader
Thinker with a wrong mouth to speak
Blind seeker
Visions that were born before
Veiled future
Hidden behind the truth
... Your truth
Baptized in enmity
Craftsmen of killing
Passion for order
Uncompromising will
Baptized in enmity
Where the shadows clash
Upon my world
Where the world goes blind
Where nothing is real
Now I´m dying here
Under the falling down shadows
Starve my soul
Eternity craves for me
Grey this world of dawn
God made in my dream
I have gone blind
Praying to die... alone
Where the shadows clash
Upon my world
Where the world goes blind
Where nothing is real
I burn for the shadows
That have found me
I show excruciating pain
My blood is black as in my dreams
I moan, for betrayed I am
This is the throne where shadows clash
Where the only man
Will suppress his life
Son of god
Lost deep inside
Where the shadows clash
Upon my world
Where the world goes blind
Where nothing is real
I burn for the shadows
That have found me
I show excruciating pain
My blood is black as in my dreams
I moan, for betrayed I am
