EARTH ESCAPE PLAN

sun and earth
death and birth
will embrace
will collide
face to face

unreal rapture
would be to capture
imagination by that masterpiece
created by nature

gift that once was given us
is to be taken away
fireworks from pandora's box
will come out one magic day

we're gonna miss it anyway
there'll be no chance to push 'replay'

it's so unfair
to not be there to witness it
it's oh so sad
we'll be too dead to witness it

who stole the treasure
unspeakable pleasure of watching it
it's all too bad
we'll all be dead and won't see it

anticipation
fuelled by temptation
sustains the patience
hopelessly hope to see that deadly creation

man could grow up if he'd try
he prefers to kill and die
man could conquer time and space
he instead runs his worm race

if universe can save that paltry clown
stupidity has certainly no bounds

masters of policies
spiders of fallacies
won all wars, lost all peace
their own worst enemies

wanton destruction - only direction
total consumption - one conception

explorers, invaders, manowars, righteous crusaders
grave diggers, brave spacemen, inventors of earth escape plan
in the end and after all
just blind greed and nothing more
in the essence under all
just plain need for power to devour more
and more forever more

man could open mind and eyes
he instead roams blind in lies
man could get through time and space
he instead moves at worm pace

two same lost
grains of dust
will collide
kiss and say good bye

 

 

 

WORM

from ancient storm
our world was born
and now we're here
trembling with fear
we fail to learn
how come we're here
the cause appears
to be a worm

when chaos came into form of order
then death came on the throne
so be it, thy will be done
amen

something like a creepy worm
hides within a cosmic storm
eating all our so naive
sciences of make-believe

looking through the eyes of doom
see the world as open wound
looking through the eyes of truth
see the world as open tomb

world is rotting from inside
paradise for parasite

world is stinking as it rots
culture born in vulture's guts

something like a creepy worm
hides within a cosmic storm
eating all our so naive
sci-fi theories we believe

from raging storm
our hopes were born
infected with
perfection myth
what for we're born?
and who are we?
the answers seem
to be a worm

when chaos took the form of order
then absurd took the throne
so be it, thy will be done
fucking a

something like a creepy worm
lives within a cosmic storm
feeding off our so naive
sci-fi stories we believe

eden feast of leprosy
help me, oh hypocrisy
 
on the whatever day of creation
the one who slept inside an apple of temptation
he was awoken
that's what none prophet has ever spoken

 

 

 

TRAPPED IN A SLEEP

morning never came
end of waiting game
nightmares you've been through
now they all come true

daydream was so near
now it's disappeared
nightmares you once knew
now they're back for you

panic is the only way
to live your life in a noble way
poverty's the only way
to live your life in a holy way

solution never came
overwhelming shame
horrors passing through
eyes laughing at you

walls of suffering are closing in
you know everything and that's your sin

you fight against a grin
that's why you cannot win

world you're buried in is rotten within
so just take off your skin and let the worm in

your defence
makes no sense
you've been warned
make no plans

left your place
for their race
now you're lost
left no trace

reason you're afraid
shining as a blade
you just bow your head
think you're not dead yet?

salvation never came
you move towards the flames
monsters you once grew
now they become you

you know what is the price you pay
for living life in a honest way
but what would be the prize you'd gain
by living life in a wretched way?

torments grow so vile
resistance is futile
on your knees and pray
can't run anyway

you were trapped
while you slept
woke too late
holy crap

you're misplaced
and defaced
paralysed
and disgraced

nothingness means
nothing as it seems
mercy's just another sweet dream

reason why you pay
reality away
this damn need to know
you just can't let go

panic is a guiding light
to keep your eyes open wide
poverty's the only guide
to keep your lies justified

nothing ever came
neverending game
corpses passing through
skies laughing at you

voice of thundering is closing in
you've cared of everything - it's deadly sin

you fight against nothing but a grin
please show me anything but a grin

void of sacred things fills from within
so give up everything and let the worst begin

there's no end
don't pretend
no way out
understand

left your place
left no trace
lost in both
time and space

nothingness means
nothing as it seems
mercy was just a dream

 

 

 

FILLING THE VOID

leaders know the need of time
senses sharp though eyes blind
followers of collective soul
follow even if they'd fall

leaders built the cult of time
common sense beats one's mind
worshippers of nature's call
worship facts, don't even try to break through the wall

life was born in chaos
death was born in life
hell was born in heaven
truth was before time

life will drown in chaos
death will swallow life
hell will merge with heaven
truth will suck in all those precious lies

preachers of the void
if you just could imagine what you preach
feel free to destroy
if you could give a damn of what you teach

worm crawled out of nothing
nothing still remains
can't you feel it growing
flowing in our veins

life crawls back to chaos
death it seems as life
hell it speaks as heaven
mother nature devil's daughter-wife

now i see all that i can see
no morning ecstasy
now i see all that is to see
poisoned liberty

in this empty bottle
lies the universal truth
seems alive yet rotten
anyway it has no use

kneeling down to ghost of time
lead the crowd to righteous crime
model modern hope for luck
we're all mortal so what the fuck

slave shall never be released
no way to civilise the beast
feed the hunger of collective soul
nothingness owns you all

life was born in chaos
death was born in life
hell was born in heaven
god lived all the time

life will die in chaos
death will bury life
hell will marry heaven
mother nature devil's daughter-wife

 

 

 


SISYPHEAN STRUGGLE

as a wheel of misfortune keeps turning round and round
wretched will gets more weakened and paltry with its every turn
as a cycle of tortures goes spirally upwards
even following the rules won't save you from judgement as it burns

trying to fit yourself
in this world for oh so long
unable to relate
take it you just don't belong

all in vain, all the same
these eyes just stare and blame
cold, alone, away from home
where have you gone this wrong?

this world doesn't want your deeds, your words
so leave alone and live alone in hideaway and die alone 

wanted to warm yourself
world turned out to be so cold
no reason to complain
don't say you have not been told

maybe you'll find a peace of mind, just cross the threshold
let the absurdity become your strongest passion

the world once stripped of illusions, all bullshit
is a foreign place, so horrible, tomorrow's the enemy ultimate
i recognize you, i realize you, accept you and tolerate you
absurdity, challenge me, let me fucking rise against you

as the mountain of fate cuts the tranquil sky with its top
is this eternal failure requiring nothing but a revolt?
as a boulder rolls back down a hill once again
can sisyphean struggle itself be enough to fill a man's heart?

your hands are firmly tied to the conclusions oh so right
appetite for absolution never can be satisfied
suicide seems right solution, it can hardly be denied

one must imagine sisyphus happy
but how can the curse be a vital force

once you're conscious of your state tragedy is being born
but somehow there is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn
make yourself at home in eternal return

trying to go insane
fit your mind into the world
no freedom to restrain
man can't be as free as bird

all the pain, all in vain
so futile and inane
cold, alone, away from home
wasn't it what you ran from?

this world unworth your gifts, your birth
so leave alone and live alone in hideaway, all alone
all alone, all alone, all alone, turn to stone
