1. ENTHYMEME

And I watch you standing isolated in the crowd . through the acolytes bedewed with lore despise the truth I can hear it loud

Behind your cogitations shrouded in your mind . I am the enthymeme, encrypted for the blind . perpetual I'll remain within your soul

But I see your billowed tongue turn so lame . no castigating words you hide behind the ancient fame

Flamboyancy before now cheap and sold your talks behave . you lost your aim and stumbled towards a mental grave

Now I dread you will be fading from my dreams tonight . like a cygnet in the wasteland starving in gleaming light


2. DORIAN

Again and again i'm waiting, gray's shadow passing by . my image I adore so much, age is just a lie . again and again I'm wearing the dark voyeur's cape . broken mirrors, shattered dreams, reflecting my shape

And I am watching myself in delight . never I'll grow old, and I stay in juvenile light

Again and again i'm trusting in my contract . a soul is but the lowest price for this celestial pact . again and again I remember the tempting words you said . love, life, lust for me alone and nothing I have paid

Again and again I'm sleeping, a needle in my arm . one more shot for fantasy, won't do me any harm . again and again I'm dreaming, but there's a doubt somewhere . will I relive again tomorrow or stay in the fallen's lair ?


3. MORNING WON'T COME TONIGHT

Hold me for another second, gentle arms embrace my fright . till this dark eclipse is gone, 'cause I will die tonight

Stay - another hour, say - soothing words . lay - around me your shadow, and pray - that morning won't come tonight

Feel - first light is dawning, sense - we are drowning. dare - remember our past, and you will know - that morning won't come tonight

Tonight, tonight, morning won't come tonight

Wake - I know you're sleeping, outside - mist is creeping . stare - through your broken window, still I hope - that morning won't come tonight

Fight - for a dream, fall - into this bed of steam . wait - I feel your fright, but I'm sure - that morning won't come tonight

Now - all is silent, soon - you'll be alone . again - a guiding light, after all - morning won't come tonight, tonight, ...


4. RAINCHILD

And the clouds are bleeding, a shattered sky was torn . there's a shower leading, another infant's born . a virgin hurricane's the mother, she's forgotten anyway . thunder called its father as he left the other day

Kiss the rain, again it happened anywhere . without shelter, hom, cave, house or lair . kiss the rain, sometines calm but never mild . born to cry, as you are a rainchild

And a light is guiding flashes cutting the dark . wells filled with laughter following its mark . and its life will be abused, where the rainbow drowns . in a sea of cruelty, on its waves the blinking crowns

And in the end of days there'll be sunshine once again . he'll be sitting high above feeling all the weather's pain . as he lays his head straigh into the burning sun . no more rain around, still he'll be the only one


5. DARK TOWN

And finally in a city of lost angels a new spirit shows its frenzy face . a grimace full of anger, furrowed by grief and sorrow . for all the exits locked, and every deed is done…

Touch the time, paw this endless time, air filled with liquor, full of cheap, red wine . schemes of black dahlias, feel it blanket our sky, oh pale-grey dark town, capital of hope and sigh

Lazy at labour, ambitious in crime, ruins of laughter, who's the last in line ? . splay broken wings, deprave the lurking spy, the keen eyes of dark town, capital of hope and sigh

I've seen them all, the hookers and dealers . they make me sick though being healers . caress our festering wounds of society in the dark town

All streets abandonned, hearts are fraught with pain, like a million pearls, earthward flows the rain . dispunge our oblique sins, though some gone by with the fate of dark town, capital of hope and sigh

I am here since the logest time, they told me not to leave, no stay here in the coldest fire, in the rotten beauty, in an endless dream so realistic, in this dark town


6. PILE OF DELUSION

On the wrong side of the mirror he's observing me again to see . and the fury in his eyes will destroy the best in me

Why should I be me, when I can be somebody else ? . what is reality, just another pile of delusion

The reflection now crawls closer, reaching out into my face to be . another cancer in the dark will reveal the worst in me

Now it's me that haunts the image, forever twilight I will try to flee . and my shadow feasts on beauty, lives my life instead of me


7. COINCIDENCE

Riding on the longest highway - lying a cold grey bed . watch the lovely sunset - under pressure of a dirty shed . flowers, laughter passing by - and the reaper's near . children, love and all your hope - alone and nothing but a rope

Take a pill and you'll be healthy - one more shot and you are dead . and your car the girls love - so perfect to incinerate . are you happy just like me - down your cheeks the tears . today is your wedding day - and your grave buries the fears

Silicious sands run through your face to carve your smallest chance . the maelstrome waits to choke you down through a simple chain of coincidence

Got a present the other day - there's a bomb inside . are you lucky when you open it ? - worry what the wrapping hides . a bouquette full of flowers - on the tomb they rot . brought to you and nothing more - this is all you've got

Death can offer you so much, but life reveals the rest . you won't lose if you go on 'cause this ain't some kind of coincidence


8. DECAY

And as we raise our heads into the crimson sky, the endless night embraces lips that sigh, "please, one more second before we sway", but softly the wind whispers a single word : "decay"

It's seven minutes after eight, and I wonder, if I might be late . just a few moments of my time, but guess for whom tonight the bell will chime

Is it for you or maybe for me, anyway mankind's fate is near . swirling mist will covr my eyes, armageddon's drums i hear

On four limbs we dwell through the caves, no bullets but with flintstones we will kill . slings, axes, scythes, the futuristic crap, crusaders show their strongest will

The time has come to part again, still we think it will go on . close your eyes, await thy doom, a decade of decay's to come

It's five minutes after ten, and still we don't realize . it will be over much too soon, opaque clouds will cover our cries

It's three minutes to the end of the time, and soon all our clocks will stop

Our elders will rise again, in silent dignity we bend our knee . enjoy a last second before we fade and after that… eternity


9. REJECTED

Can't put together the fragments in my head, your useless words and all the crap you said . again this time nothing works out for me, dreadful writings on the wall I see

Oh goddess, what have I done, and what is it I'm always doing wrong . one more time I am the fool, you're no exception to this rule

I am rejected, again refused, feeling neglected for I've been abused . I am rejected, I was refused, again neglected for I've been abused

And blood runs cold through my tattered veins, it is consumed by you like balsamic rain . cruel thoughts are boiling in my brain, but still there ain't no help again

Rejected, refused, neglected, abused

A deeper sadness rapes my heart, rememberance seems now to tear me apart . all I can do now is to wait, until the one above will turn my fate


10. FIRST FLOWER AFTER THE FLOOD

Out of a scattered universe nothing but a purple sky . the final curtains fall in an odeon where satyrs lie . a wave of pain and anger sweeps through the new delay . and crimson clouds, fellowers obey

The first flower after the flood and the whole planet will drown . into something great though I fear that it never may come, never may come, never may come...

A resurrection of the things to dawn, revelations one by one . they have crumbled into dust, skeletons included lust . and while the desert is bleeding, a star lit burning shell . turns to be the seed it will feed the well

Tear down the wall of rain, ascension day is here again . misunderstood the words you said, sorrow 'cause it won't be paid . no more warnings flash and glow, we are happy when only the wind will blow…
