1.
The break of dawn tears the sky Red fog that blinds my eyes A black raven that was born and damned None shall rest – nay good nor bad A flap of wings, the mist of clouds The earth that lies beneath the crowds Death dwells in their broken bones The time of men has passed I shall not weep for a morbid faith I am the gate of heaven and hell A black thread laced in eternity This is only a raven's tale Tears of snow freeze my wings The smell of grief and loss that stings A mere perspective of a vanishing moment Away I fly – forsaking thy torment
2.
Two souls meet in the shadows of the night Circle in a flame of desire and innocence Her true love revives his being His soul is captured forever A cold morning begins its path Eyes are open to welcome the first breath of the day A cold body touches the warmth of a kindred soul Life is lost, love is torn – she will be no more His memories seek her face without a rest Pain conquers his awareness – all is dead Nothing can remain the same as he screams her name From the void of his broken heart A mist bearing her smell appears She is between the worlds of suffering and eternal rest She can face it no more The fates have decided- her love must die The battle begins as the princess of doom Fights to grab his soul into the night There cannot be two – only one Her dark thoughts invade his mind All is forgotten as he surrenders and dies
3.
From the depths of insanity I scream your name Left with the remains that brought me shame Void that dazzles my thoughts Loneliness and despair become my reality Banished from the garden of everything but black The bright colours fade before my eyes The sins of angels shatter like a broken glass Falling into the cold Leaving only memories I cannot hold I am a fallen outcast among the beloved Dragging my broken wings through the path of the dammed Nothing would alter the ruins I left I belong no more I believe no more Drowning in the depths of misery and pain. I am the king of the seventh kingdom The angel of solitude and tears The wrath of God The collector of sorrow The carrier of the divine spears. Drown my hope – burn my soul – I am not your son anymore An empty shadow of forgotten dreams. A fallen angel captured between worlds.
4.
Rays of light tear up the sky Bright memories of children's' smile Your life like a maze of colours Keeping me awake with a feeling That you are still here My blood – my brother- my darker half Heart of gold which was never enough I've heard your scream I've touched your pain I still feel your fear Waking up in the middle of the night Your presence, your smell, your wordless yell… What I would give To hear your voice whispering again My blood – my brother – my suffering half How many promises, how you had tried Shadow and light Happiness and despair One great battle of a soul that decayed You had lost, but your being had won You are everywhere – your work is done My blood – my brother – we are one
5.
The inner sadness that burns you from inside Reminds me daily of my last day The notion that you're temporary Reflects your fears and casts you away All around you, are born and die Nothing remains the same No matter how hard you try… How can I be despite this mortal grasp? Heaven is above, hell is under I am a fracture between lightning and thunder On these mortal meadows my footprint is vague Nothing but a breath of a divine intervention A mistake of an enormous creation Every thought, every tear, every sound I hear Fade like mist and disappear Day after day of fighting the inevitable Fate, coincidence, flipping this mortal coin My precious moment will soon be gone Last day, last smile, last of everything How can I bear this endless illusion? I am blind, I am soundless, buried in confusion
