Sublime Perversion
05:00
|
|||
Lethal lust she cannot hide
Lunacy in her lucid act
Loudly she’s groaning
She’s laughing
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
A heat melting the last soundness
Sick instincts, scratching skins
Snaky legs, she’s biting hard
Feel her poison hot in my veins
Her silk tongue in a dazzling dance
Around my neck, greedy vampire
Getting faster, shaking faster
Sexless shades in a shameful show
She’s higher as her spinning hands
Demented hands end sweating
Reading your body, soul in escape
Lost in your face
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Standing face to face with my collapsed world
I feel so miserable and sick of it all
There’s nothing in me but fangs that want to be released
This is such weight that now I bow before your tiny body in flames
I try to forget myself but I feel still warm the blood on both my hands
Pounding in my darkest nightmares
The sacrifice is beating into my dreams
Can see nothing but the night that falls
Over my eyes like a raven black shroud again
How I wish a could control
This insane fear and quietly accept you
There’s nothing in me but ruins that drag me down in such decadence
Oh, close my eyes to let me
Be where I want and be where I need
It doesn’t make sense anymore
All I want does not exist no more
Whose are these voices that I hear?
I could never really know for sure
They are calling me but I am weak
I just want a cure to relieve my soul away
Again
Leave my soul again
Leave my soul again
Leave my soul again
Leave my soul again
(Standing face to face with my collapsed world)
Leave my soul again
(I fell so miserable and sick of it all)
Leave my soul again
(There’s nothing in me but fangs)
Leave my soul again

Spell in the Cathedral
03:53
|
|||
Where hidden angels sing in gray bliss
Sinister saints in their catacombs
Sinners in a row, weeping on their knees
Spirits howling hypnotic hymns
Filling the air with echoes of bells
Rotten flowers under the sanctuary
Running away from the flames of hell
The wine in the gory chalice
Absorbing the blame, absolve their shame
Prayers praise in sacred communion
Unbeliever ones who invoke the saint
Cold shadows in the cathedral
Where the clouds won’t go away
Solitaire thoughts coming to surface
Crossing themselves they always obey
(Ah)

Light
03:46
|

Remake your life, turn it upside down
As bizarre, as strange, as wild as you can
Slip through your thoughts, slip through your troubles
As a star begins to shine inside your heart
Renew your blood so long stained
Retake your goals as far as they seem
Raise the strength hidden in your body
And fly away, just fly away
(Fly away, fly away)
As the sweet promises from the past begin to come true
Reach out the point and start again
Let the sound of music fill the place
Swim in the air, the liquid sky
Burning on fever at the rain forest
That’s burning from inside
Let’s get a trip, always fast forward
Guitar, cymbal in ethereal dance
Echoing softly on the marble
Remake it all then turn it upside down
Echoing softly on the marble
Remake it all and turn it upside down
And turn it upside down
And turn it upside down
And turn it upside down
And turn it, turn it
Upside down

Midnight Train
02:30
|

There is no fun here
There is no job here
There is no future here
We have to break on through
We have to run away
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight
Train
Our dreams here won’t come true
Our kids won’t become old
Our country doesn’t exist for you
And our people die hungry, die poor
So take the midnight train
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight
Train
There is no fun here
There is no job here
There is no future here
We have to break on through
We have to run away
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight train (take the midnight train)
Take the midnight...

Anaïs
05:44
|

With the silence of the night she’s coming
Bringing peace of mind, now she’s coming
The reflection at your deep dark eyes
Makes believe that love never dies
Come, open your eyes, it gets dark
We’re safe and sound now
With our feet on the ground
The sky have whirled its veil
It’s a rainy afternoon
Are you coming soon?
With the silence of the night she’s coming
(Anaïs)
Bringing peace of mind, now she’s coming
(Anaïs)
The reflection at your deep dark eyes
(Anaïs)
Makes believe that love never dies
(Anaïs)
Come, whispering your mellow voice
For me to sleep
Holding me in your arms
All my pain is relieved
Black haired girl, serene beauty
Gasping for air, my suffered child
Let me drown in your blissful kiss
With the silence of the night she’s coming
(Anaïs)
Bringing peace of mind, now she’s coming
(Anaïs)
The reflection at your deep dark eyes
(Anaïs)
Makes believe that love never dies
(Anaïs)
Anaïs
Anaïs
Anaïs
Anaïs
As you’re dancing with me
Close my eyes, I’m mesmerized
That soft light that is seldom seen
In your soul has always been
A sleepwalker in a dream
That should never wake up
A crystal feather so fragile won’t break
The hypnotic trance
With the silence of the night she’s coming
(Anaïs)
Bringing peace of mind, now she’s coming
(Anaïs)
The reflection at your deep dark eyes
(Anaïs)
Makes believe that love never dies
(Anaïs)

Blind Looking Glass
03:13
|
|||
I reached the gates of delirium
Stand my eyes until it strikes
Cry for a while, hate all faith
Wait for the right hour that comes too late
Crushing opportunities that I left behind
Losing the breath in a desperate run
Falling down on the leaves on the ground
You were not there as thought that you were
A flower among corpses lost in the dust
Abandoned in a mute ambiguity
Wide open wrist and blood on by guilt
Before the horrors of carnage I close my eyes in pain
Reflects on the opaque mirror
Through the white curtain
Ethereal souls in eternal suffering
Tenuous soft fog that rests on me
So tearful agony, the final agony
Praying to all God’s angels for help
(Praying for help)
Praying to all God’s angels for help
(Praying for help)

The Typhoon Eye
04:56
|
|||
All those instants of sanity are summer rain on a desert
What it was crushing what it could be
Through louder noise to feel better
And as the days go wrong, the weak beats the strong
As piece by piece we fall apart
Hurt in the heart by a sharp sword
Pretending to myself, waiting for Godot
Slip down with the cat’s elegance
As I stand by your side you keep your distance
Siamese-twin souls, two as one I thought
While I’m hypnotized by your cat eyes
The typhoon eye
At this fleeting vision, a childish indecision
Daily I dizzily fall apart
Hurt in the heart by a sharp sword
Pretending to myself waiting for Godot
But all of this is relieved with a smile
And I’m in peace in the typhoon eye

Creepers
02:44
|
|||
Hide every day, no one is safe
In every place there’s something hidden
The walls can hear so speak low
Don’t you mess with who rests in peace
Here there’s no danger, so don’t be afraid
See the fallen angels in this place
Here there’s no danger, there is no danger
Cry every day, no one is safe
In every single day there is someone crying
The echoes tell stories from
The underground of this world
So you run and you fall
And you pray a little more
You are a scapegoat for atrocities
In this world of cruelties
Yeah, I told you before
What’s behind this door
In the desperate hour no pain no gain
No more
We are here, waiting for you
Yes, we are here waiting for you

Pride
04:06
|
|||
I can’t understand
This noise like one voice
In my head
We wish simple things
Pride
Hope in one dream
We need trust
We need to behave
No more “sorry”
No wasted tears
Sing us a song
A song to save our lives
Sing us a song
And everything will be alright
It will be alright
Everything will be alright
Your fashion way makes me feel ill
Voodoo dolls, don’t let them control
Your desires
And we cry louder
Sometimes we hate this life
But we can’t give up
Trust in better times
Sing us a song
A song to save our lives
Sing us a song
And everything will be alright
It will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
