In The Haze

These are the secrets
No one wants to know
These are the stories
No one wants to hear
I keep it in
Going under day by day
I keep it in
Getting sicker night by night
The ineffable yearning
Is tearing me apart
Stuck in a stalemate forever
I am stuck in a stalemate forever
Words are useless now
My mind goes blank
Words are meaningless
And the emptiness is turning fierce
This silence is deafening
I have fallen prey to it
Seeing nothing through the mist
Seeing nothing in the haze
Behold the ravenous void!
Its claws are razor-sharp
Behold the desolation!
Behold the endless woe!

Vultures and crows
Are circling above our heads
Flags are fluttering
And graves are gaping wide
We’re running out of time
It doesn’t matter what side you have chosen
We’re running out of time
It doesn’t matter now
We have slipped the implacable snare
So many times
But now the cell door has swung shut
And there is no way back
We were here victorious
So leave regret to the weak
Soon the daybreak will
Put an end to our struggle
Only through the hottest flames
Can purification be achieved
And in the hottest flames
We’ve burned to cinder
The sky is turning red
It’s time to go
The sky is turning red
It’s time to say our vale
We have slipped the implacable snare
So many times
But now the cell door has swung shut
And there is no way back
We were here victorious
So leave regret to the weak
Soon the gallows will
Put an end to us

A Trice Of Verve
06:01
|

Halt now
Can you feel it in the air
Saturated with illumination
This fragile moment is so full of poetry and sorrow
We have been so long away
There is nothing left in us
We have been so long astray
We forgot our names
Left behind, the bridges burn
Glowing in the pitch-black night
Endlessly forlorn, endlessly lost
We have become our own nightmare
Nothing is essential
Nothing but an instant of clarity
A fey picture
Painted on the canvas of decay
A doomed symphony
Painted on silence
The pest is coming
The scourge is lightning quick
Nothing will stand
Nothing but a trice of verve

The Gift
06:23
|

Upon you I bestow
A gift of time
At war with my own memories
I am clinging to the emptiness
You don’t take the bait
Completely disregarding me
You don’t take the bait
Believing in nothing
From below I hear
The voices calling me
From below I hear
The songs of stygian sea
The depths are waiting
The depths are waiting tranquilly
Why have you left me here to fester?
Why have you forsaken me?
There is no way
To get through the crippling madness
The helping hand withdraws
When most needed
There is no way
To break forth from the misery
There is no way
To break forth from myself

What if remembrance
Is a form of incarceration?
What if amnesia
Can be a blessing in disguise?
Molten kernels of memory
Keep falling into my hands
Keep falling into my hands
And the tide is getting higher
To carry the burden of words
Is to have a desert within
A desert flooded with shadows of the past
Underneath the mask
There is no substance
There is no reason
To keep on going
These murky waves
Are swallowing us
The endless current
Is pulling us into the abyss
Molten kernels of memory
Keep falling into my hands
Keep falling into my hands
Keep falling into my hands

Elegy

Everything has already been said
Everything has already been written
There is no me in these words
There is no you in these words
Open your eyes and see what you can with them
Before they close forever
Dream yourself back
Dream yourself onwards
Dream yourself back
Into the realm of light
Everything will be said again
Everything will be done again
Open your eyes and see what you can with them
Before they close forever

Am Abend tönen die herbstlichen Wälder
Von tödlichen Waffen, die goldnen Ebenen
Und blauen Seen, darüber die Sonne
Düstrer hinrollt; umfängt die Nacht
Sterbende Krieger, die wilde Klage
Ihrer zerbrochenen Münder.
Doch stille sammelt im Weidengrund
Rotes Gewölk, darin ein zürnender Gott wohnt
Das vergoßne Blut sich, mondne Kühle;
Alle Straßen münden in schwarze Verwesung.
Unter goldnem Gezweig der Nacht und Sternen
Es schwankt der Schwester Schatten durch den schweigenden Hain,
Zu grüßen die Geister der Helden, die blutenden Häupter;
Und leise tönen im Rohr die dunkeln Flöten des Herbstes.
O stolzere Trauert ihr ehernen Altäre
Die heiße Flamme des Geistes nährt heute ein gewaltiger Schmerz,
Die ungebornen Enkel.
