vengeance knocking at my gate
something less than scents of shades
drips from my hands and paints me pale
dragons waiting to exhale
am i really here?
pandora grins my blood to stone
gnaws her teeth into my throat
whilst guilt sneaks through the sullen air
wrath and sloth unfix your hair
am i really here?
just one glance from your eyes
blood on the floor
knives you spoke glide inside
and you want more
green and grey to black and white
swords forever in my side
red tears float in neonlight
makes the night a day too bright
am i really here?
autumnal leaves on barren land
castles built on poisoned sand
the dagger sparkles in your hand
nothing left here to defend
am i really here?
stains of fear sweep my pride
a lock on the door
all run out, turning tide
still you want more
beautiful memories still in my head
daisies and roses, needle and threat
all ripped off me
days in the woods, nights in lakes
magic books, going out late
all ripped off me
expressions that wait for signs of my fear
assassins to kill on verdict of weakness
better than i
satanic sadism looms back from your eyes
demons besmear your lips with their lies
better than i
just one glance at your eyes
blood on the floor
all run out, turning tide
still you want more
feel me bleed deep inside
crimson drips reflect your eyes
scream
all run out, turning tide
hit the ground, end my flight
scream
promise the world and give what you gain
virgins to vamps and killers to saint
greed in your eye
apathy yawns, movement dies
so much truth behind your lies
no more princess, shining knight
blame and guilt form your spotlight
am i really here?
vengeance knocking at my gate
something red as nereus' fate
drips through your clothes and paints me pale
horror grows, but tears still fail
am i really here?
See me, feel my breath cloud your window
Raindrops peel the dust from my skin
Hear me call your name through the damp pane
Wind blows, but the end won't begin
Eyes glow and pretend not to notice, a
Hearth burns but your tea has gone cold
Lies flow and an anvil lies waiting
Sorrows and a soul have been sold
One step further: one step too far
Won't step further, stay where you are
One eye sheds a tear in the night's shade
But I turn around and forget
To watch for it hitting the pavement
My fate lies no more tears ahead
Leave me, let me run from this place and, hey there,
Keep your distance, your's no disgrace, but stay there
Sleep your slumber in your dream maze, your saviour
Left his transfixed pose and repays now fate's stare
One step further: onestep too far
Won't step further, stay where you are
One step further is where we are
Close the door and switch on the light, believe me
I am gonna go on a ride to take me
One step further: onestep too far
Won't step further, stay where you are
One step further is where we
Unseen fetters clink to the ground, a weight falls
Now I'm searching for what I found, the road calls
Leave behind me sloth and despair, the sky grows
Sunrise hits my feet at the ground, still wind blows
One step further: onestep too far
Won't step further, stay where you are
One step further is where we are
Once we lived our life in a song
There was a time when we knew what was wrong
We were young and true in our heart
But there's a fork where we all have to part,
Launch a new start
Our cause, your cause, we shared a dream
But our commom feelings burst at the seams
Felt the time begin dragging by
Towering Tension grew to crack the sky
Stay where you are, our choice
One step too far, your voice
Drowns in the stars, my friends
We're heading past the end
We found a place where we do belong
Took a step, moved out of the throng
Left behind what we had to pass,
All was fine as long as it did last, but
Stay where you are, our choice
One step too far, your voice
Drowns in the stars, my friends
We're heading past the end
Touch me, hold me, put your hand in mine
Help me to forget
Feel me, keep me safe at your shoulder
Rock me to sweet dreams
Stay where you are, our choice
One step too far, your voice
Drowns in the stars, my friends
We're heading past the end
the flashlight shot right through your flickering heart
people's movements round you fall apart
cackle out an ooze of sweat and laughter
spin faster
learn your eyes' distress from quietening gazes
find your swift ignition flare amazement
a gutter ballroom to your feet
like raw meat
they move slowly - how they bore me, live so slowly
phosphor drowns in cigarettes breathless smoke
the prince of tuesday nights he spoils his joke
tickle fancies till they scream in rapture
moisture
i could never share your world
suddenly it's too absurd
sometimes even dance can limp
sometimes your diction's stumbleing
your footsteps never kiss the cancelled rhythms
schism
so here inside me it's all very quiet
drifting like the wind in my scorched hair
shifting like the winter through bald trees
all my life i am tonight
growing like a cramp in your right hand
thriving like the winter's divorced land
frustration leads to knowledgs
burn your laughter mirthless
so here inside it's all right
ruthless like the needle in my eye
cutting deep like friends caught when they lie
raging gives you knowledgs
pack the stars up mirthless
the dancefloor cracks your bones and launches a laugh
the dust creeps in your lungs and stutter coughs
your hand bursts open, hit by treacherous footsteps
sunset
you move slowly - how you bore me, live so slowly
i move slowly - how i bore me, how i bore me
Footsteps tear the cobwebs of a night
Heartbeats fade in skin-distorted black light
Read closed eyes and sew your lies to evermore
If is Why and whispers cry your wounded core, a verbal whore
Your truth is burning in your eyes, your nouns distract my name
Verbs creep craving, adjectives crack echoes of your blame
Creeds of passion form your ache in crooked rhyme
Scorching breath pales pictures fading into skies
Stars your mirrors, black as silver, borrowed life
Phrase-poised rivers, floating shivers, sharpened knives
Our eloquence dried-up
The vivid sentences cut
Disguise the inner rot
Discuss the final
keep it inside, reap it inside, rip off the mortal pain
(Read it from my face) your changes faint to same
(Seal it in your gaze) you die of what you´ve gained
(Stunningly amazed) my coldness drowns your aim
(Defeated and erased) your shot words lose the game
Deserts sigh in mourning as they swell
Rocks forbid the last infectious yell
Crusted bloodstreams underneath the silent sand
Thurst forgetting, hunger runs right through your hands
Sleep, for now You still dare to,
Keep your eyes closed as you do,
Breathe, and feel how your heart beats
Peace won't last any longer than your
Dreams
On, I have to go on,
don't turn around, run and keep my back
bent, 'cause it is on my heels
and its breath caressing me,
damp, so close and pressing me
faster, I have to go faster,
or it will be past me and I will be
passed, God, it is so fast,
my heart is of glass, how long will it
last? Knees that bend and hurt
and feet that burn and tread wet sand,
bleed and leave a fat shed trace,
shining, it's nostrils refining
upon a race dying in monstrous pace
What is it, a man or a beast?
Just why did it turn upon me?
A shadow, grotesque, incomplete
Its panting and croaking a spell
looming, tow'ring, weaving a cell,
for my thoughts in blistering hell
Go, a stumble, just go, a twig hanging low,
row row your boat,
no, the sun is still up there,
slow, growing filling the air,
Ho, Phoebus' reddening fair
Chariot, far from its lair, tear it, be fair,
just don't spare it, your glare a spear
My blood freezing while I haste on
Its smell oozing vile all along
Roasting my brain in milelong tongs
Lightening, frightening rages the gale
Thunder, under pressure not to fail
Blowing, glowing fire, the sky
Burning, churning arrow in your eye
Still, behind me a will, to blind me and kill,
a mind, just to
spill a life, to quench its thirst, still alive,
the prey, a curse fills the air, who pays, which purse
ringing, whose silver is singing,
who is the one bringing this chase to end?
Sins I repent, Tears, falling, die....
Path blurring, now steps falter, my
cry: who are you? Why, answer, why?
You fill the sky with your breath tonight
though your chemical brain is still sleepy
Life rests in your pocket,
don't think stains on the mirror deceive me
Sometimes I forget who you were
when you tell me your heartbeat is silence
You stare at me with your empty eye
and i can't find a line left in your hand
Years just slip away when I look out in your face
Did you look my way when I reached out for your gaze?
You light your life to ashes
that will never know Phoenix again
Thoroughly draw your life lines
- it's the ghost in the mirror you ban
A nosebleed, are you thirsty?
Feel the heat dry the blood of your pain
Supersonic cyberlove, but your friends do not enter your den
Old lies grin my way and you drift through your fantasy
Chalk revives your face when you cancel your legacy
Headaches float your days that will tell for your destiny
Did you look my way when I reached for your self-esteem?
Proud we see low life leak now. Castaway left to devour
Ask for E to hit the crowd. Drown in dreams ever so loud
And you smirk at your denial. And you pray for suicide.
Smile your death, cut your breath tight.
Hold your head out into night
Long before the truth might drown your pillows
She sneaks into your headaches through your closed eyes
Forgotten and bored, your hearbeats left your life
Shivering as the northwinds through the night
Write it on your bedroom walls: Loving launches lies
All your plans piled broken on the unwiped floor
Your memories fainted in your veins, all those years you died
All your kisses showing you the door
Keep them small, those changes at your doorstep
You can't deny what you came for
Breathe in deeply the nothingness your smile adores
But you can't deny what you came for
I won't stay and watch you suck your own blood out
A vampire that can't taste the juice of life
Wave goodbye to all those moving on
We'll think of you as someone almost remembered
See your friends give in
Sold for thoughts too thin
Laughter makes you fly
Laughter built of cries
I won't stay and help you blind your own eyes
Ashen in their caves like burnt-out fires
Wave goodbye to all those moving past your grave
We'll think of you as someone left behind
Keep them small, the changes at your doorstep
But I can't deny what you came for
Breathe in deeply the nothingness you're craving for
But I can't deny what you came for
You can't deny what you came for
