Misanthropos 05:11
Mindless sheep "We all live in our sphere, a sphere we call Ego. And we can't break free, we are trapped for this is the life we choose." "And even though they say you can't bite the hand that feeds you, lately I feel like I shall sever some limbs apart..." Suicides right before our eyes Lifeless bodies merged with the tracks We stand there waiting, observing Wondering when will the train start Misanthropy "This is the law of the urban jungle. An ecosystem of utility poles. And in order to survive you must feed your inhumanity as you have been tought." Endless nights with thoughts in war Those fucking headaches won't cure But now I know that humanity Is going through the epitomy of idiocracy

Vanitas 07:58
Blinded but I feel the warmth Sunrise, sunrise But even my inner fire Is devoured by cold Lies.. All I love turns to lies all I hate fills my soul Now the silence sounds like cries In a world that I'm alone I fear my own existence Shrouded by my own fragile flesh I only feel the pain filling my emptiness, My real world I find peace only in the dark I feed on my own blood Blood... But I exist and however I'm born dead to live forever

Your Atlas 05:22
Dreamer Catch a string in your nightmare Grasp tight As it leads you to lands of unknown Like a hawk observe Picture this different, grotesque world Behold the mirror of your true emotions All hope is wrecked Like kingdoms fell Our boats have sunk Into the abyss “The deaf can hear trails of blood and the blind can witness the fall of constellations.” Your dreams haunt your thought Cold sweat runs down You return from this twisted world Just to face another day in this sick reality Under your bed you hide a sketchbook Draw your dreams now For this is your Atlas to promised land. Remember what you were promised And see it ruin under your feet.

Looking around There is nobody near Only the solid night Stepping on bodies, what left of this world Empty town Lifeless but still warm Burning down The only thing you see The luxury that left behind. Running toward the fire To set me free Save me from this world No bloody hope, no hope No more has left to fear There is no savior there's no Lord The morning's coming The sun is red I walk alone Everyone's dead Dead cats, dead dogs Not even birds fly I'm alone, I cannot die I've been won by this world of lies No meaning Living like this No

(Life) By the first breath I give hope By The first glimpse of the sun (Death) Only pain and fear is the illusion of life Lie in the hug of death forever to find peace in solitude (Life) Only the shinny sun gives the true meaning of reality The smell of the wet soil after the rain in the forest (Death) The flesh is the prison of your mind You can see but you 're still blind Trapped in life you loose The true meaning of existance (Man) I stare from the edge of nothingness Should I climb the stair or jump I want to feel the pure love, I fear to face the loss One step seperates me from true desire One step closer to eternity The unknown calls me With the voice of descent I have no choice but choose the way of life or death (Life) Live (Death) Die

Sleepless 05:30
Sinking deep In the darkest memories of mind Surrounded by regrets I try to find my solitude Looking back I remember my whole life A dive through the endless mouth of the abyss "I cried for all those who lost their will to remember their past yet I forgot the warmth of the sun, forgot the smell of rain. Love is a shield but we choose spears and swords. Everything is pale, dirty, lifeless. Another dull afternoon and I’m sure I will break free soon. But I can’t go back, I won’t go back. Fuck this world, let me be gone." I become one with the soil Sinking deeper and deeper That feeling of melting Like sugar in the bitterest drink Free at last... Dead

Carnivorous spirits Devouring our lives Leaving us with nothing But memories and scars And the living Is lacking reflection Silhouettes fading In our pale eyes You caterpillars of creation You maggots who maintain the order Die and let the moth destroy And rebuild the world with no pain These is no throne for another God These is no throne for more lies Let the moth... Let the moth rebuild This world of emptiness Shall be no more No more lies I can't stand it anymore No need to pray No one listens Except candles Dancing for you
10.
No memories No feelings No light throught my eyes Strange love embrases me Bad omen of what may come Trying to move but I don't know how Trying to speak, no air to breath Drawning into dark warm void Voices in my head confuse my mind I feel so sad and happy at the same time. The feeling... The feeling so painful from skin to bones And the warm feeling becomes so cold The light... The light's like burning my eyes Born in vein, waiting to die knowing I have left my soul behind

Δημιουργέ του λιμού και της αρρώστιας Βούτα τα βέλη σου σε δηλητήριο “Ὁ καιρὸς γὰρ ἐγγύς” Σκίσε τους ουρανούς με γυμνά χέρια δίχως έλεος Φοβάμαι πως η σύγχρονη κοινωνία κτίστηκε κατ' εικόνα και καθ' ομοίωση βορβόρου. Μπορεί οι αρουραίοι να ζουν στα υπόγεια δίκτυα των πόλεων, όμως η πραγματική βρώμα δεσπόζει πάνω από την επιφάνεια της γης. Η κάθαρσις μπορεί να επιτευχθεί μόνο διά δευτέρου κατακλυσμού. Προσδοκώ έναν πυρηνικό χειμώνα που θα μας φέρει “Ἐν Τόπῳ Φωτεινῷ, Ἐν Τόπῳ Χλοερῷ, Ἐν Τόπῳ Ἀναψύξεως.” Και συ θα είσαι το μολύβι της σφαίρας μου Θα ευλογείς σκίζοντας τη σάρκα Και συ θα είσαι η πυξίδα Που στρέφεται προς γκρεμούς Οι Άγγελοι θα διαδίδουν το όνομά Σου Με σειρήνες της πόλης ως σάλπιγγες Κάνε να βρέξει οξύ Λιώσε κάθε λογής κιβωτό ενώ επανεκκινείς τα επίγεια Γεννηθήκαμε αρουραίοι και ως τέτοιοι πρέπει να πεθάνουμε
