A New Self 05:34
First crucial cries in this new strange place You must not forget... ...the plan of him is suddenly escaping Your next life won't be as expected, soul You have to change it Strange sensation to lose all I was Remnants of some lives, resetted as I call to mind Feel I've been brave, not remunerated You will be some day... You'll see some change In the shift, beyond the portal Incarnation suppresses all thoughts At our state karma is somnolent How could we act without remembering all? Soul 52889, good job! It was your 665th life, they were all full of joy Love and happiness Congratulations, your place near him Is almost assured now Nevertheless, pay attention To your next and last trip to Earth! In the shift, beyond the portal Incarnation suppresses all thoughts At my state karma is obsolete A new self, a new mind, all I need to rule them all Yeah, see the change

Bitter taste down in my lungs The outside world's unimical (on my own) The other boys are beating me The girls always act with pity (whipping soul) Damn it! Every day the anger's growing Could it be already this big? Feeling like a bomb ready to explode... (Dwarf, fatty, spotty, ugly) Can't take it anymore The only thing for me for now Is to run out and to cry And I cry And I cry, hoping that the tears won't turn to blood And I wait For the day it will stop... Why can't I try counter-act, They're not better than me So practical to deviate all the bullying (Please God help me, I'm one of your sheeps) Every sign of irritation entertains them so much Climb of disgust of myself has reached for me its top And I cry, hoping that the tears won't turn to blood Their blood They laugh Pray, pray, pray you'll never be under my dependence Cry, cry, you'll cry, I swear Now I wait, just to take revenge It's pretty much clear now I'll never receive confidence of someone And I'll never give mine to anybody It may sound sad, but from today It will be my way to be

Blurred vision of what my life could be With her, fade me away Wrapping bliss is here synthetic I know I'm dreaming, but it's so soothing Through his eyes I see myself naked My secret garden revealed Why doesn't he speak to me...? Speak to me... Slumped on settee, jack in hand Smoke and darkness fill the air A scene too mature for a child (It seems I lived thousand lives) Eyes wide open, disconnected While my mind lives its romance I seem quite dead but if you look closely I smile Through my eyes don't you see my will I want someone who's strong This wait, it bothers me In a strange motion of turmoil Her braided aura evaporates Although I hold you tight against my warmth Your entity flees from my arms How long will you stay in this reverie I'm here in the real world Perhaps, I'm wrong, don't you want me? Really...? In a moment of pure stupor Her braided blonde hair is moving away I leave it's not a dream, you missed the boat See you when you'll be on board As I see her walking away Such as a torn off wing from a butterfly I try to keep her silhouette in mind But now that she reached the corner of the street It seems that her face is already erased from my retina Is this the way humans are supposed To forget the loved ones, Lord?

Take Me Home 05:24
A bygone age comes back to life As for me, it was present Oh oh home sick Your rowing boat comes from afar! The mirage seems this time reality Sick of this vastness of whole aridity Oh these feelings are so strong As the pain They drive me far To where I do belong Let yourself go Oh take me home In my journey I found no one As far you'd have gone, I'd have gotcha Like you, you're so true All those years I searched for the one I knew Ironic? Ending crossing to true eternal bliss I longed for this unhoped for oasis Oh these feelings are so pure So strong They drive me To where I must belong You're welcome home And stay for sure Oh take me home Oh it's good to be back home Frustration goes away Kittie was lost And now she has returned Don't ever go again To her true home Oh I'll never quit your wrapping warmth I hold you strong Embrace me strong Never let me go

Walking back home, hand in hand Our blood boiled by desire Tonight will be our sweet end The best moment all time Our smiles reflected in our eyes Not counting the strange shadow close behind Like a deafening bang I feel the blow Destroying my head hurling it off on the floor Like Abraham himself, who must kill his son I see my better half, her face on the ground Sad sick world, forging thieves and killers Ready to sell theirs souls at loss To get the slightest little coin All my life is passing before my eyes The good moments the gloomy cries They made me alive Like Isaac tied in chains on the altar of trust She lies in a red frame and I wait for the voice I don't hear it, am I abandoned? On the vertex of undeserved truth She's dying away, without even saying a word Her locks socked in blood, like an unbaptism What is this God letting die the faithful lamb? Like a deafening bang I felt the blow Destroying my head hurling it off on the floor Now as I elevate I see my corpse Oh in this red frame in the arms of my love Like Azrael himself, the own wrath of God I swear to make them pay, to avenge this bias Its so unfair, I have just found you! On the altar of my sole true love She left me alone without even saying a word Anger melts with cries, despair fills my blood As I kiss this mouth, which would never move once more My glance is glassy but I see us From above you may feel my tears Fall upon your mouth, a kiss, the last from me to you Now I must pass on, he's calling me up Don't blame him for this loss, don't ever lose your trust

Back behind the scene of mankind The curtain went finally down This time the script was out of mind The pains barely tolerable Loved this body and its life (Where are you now?) Its view of things the way it used to move It smiles and cries The pawn will soon be sent back down (Sick of being a pawn) My memories of you dissected and taken down Whose fault is it now? It doesn't matter, right? This world and the other one are rotten to spine Wait and sit on my left or right In my bible both are quite equal My own consensus will arise, a new God at last Please Lord God Help your poor lamb To find him the 1) Strength to carry on 2) Faith to keep it up So this is how fallen angels arise Born from this rancor against the one I watch you from above I can feel your aura Do you feel mine? The astral gate's between us The strength to break it... ...is inside us... Vision of celestial worship...

As revelation told us The apocalypse has begun An open portal fills the sky Leading to the tree of life 24 thrones in the sky Are paying tribute to the one He stands among the seven stars A sharp two edged sword out of his mouth His eyes ablazed as a flame of fire Lightning, thunder, voices rise Four beasts full of eyes behind A lion, a calf, an eagle and a man The breach occurred due to our love The new physical element yeah Finally able to touch your hand I am the alpha and the omega, the first and the last The beginning and the ending, the one who is The one who was, the one who is coming, the almighty Wrapping bliss, this time for real Our tangled souls warm up again Astral mating so fusional Hand in hand Like this doomed evening Beyond the gate Leading to the Garden of Eden Snake, tempt us Forgive us (God) Tree of life Feed us now! The consensus is now broken All the souls gather And drift away far from Earth Without return, never... Like a new Eve and Adam We condemn our race, doomed our children Forced to abandon our ground Bid farewell to the Garden of Eden! All is lost his word has been spoken The eight day he destroyed all his work

It's a whistling breeze through the willow trees It can take you high, tangled up with the sky Diverting passions in our mansions Flying like a bird twirling round far from Earth And when it lands down, leaves and tears are gone It's a whistling breeze through the willow trees Spirit of forest never leaves the nest Back on a big bough, the swallow stamps from joy Then strikes up the whistle, feel the sound which heals Which runs up the slopes, which made real our hope Magnificent scene on the path to ruin Some thoughtful knew that shadows would fly soon Scanning dark aces, in skies they saw faces Of crying sad men, letting fall inheritance And when it lands down, leaves and tears are gone Magnificent view soon lead to its tomb Shivering, trembling, the painting is fading Earth starts to rumble souls fly like bubble Then explode and die, the whistle fades with cries And runs down the slopes, it made real our hopes...
