Quiet Assassin

don't waste second thoughts
be your own savior
all the options
line up in front of you
but you get high on pure white
you desperate seeker
red lipstick
on a mouth full lies
now she's pulled you in
and sucks you dry
"just a little more
faith in god"
it's a make believe
a bitter seed
that won't grow a tree
one life
no respawn
time flies
and you're afraid to be
here
beyond all thinking
where bodies 're melting
you're the same as me
you've lost all ambitions
in this shared room
your friends are fading
fast and way too soon
stop the sentimental talk
it's irrelevant
let us form an end
out of something true
she's a quiet
quiet assassin
she's a quiet
(do you think you know?)
assassin
(do you think you it's real?)
she's a quiet
(do you think you're in control?)
you're in her fucking palm
do you think you're in control?
one life
no respawn
time flies
and you're afraid to be
here
beyond all thinking
where bodies 're melting
you're the same as me
she's a quiet assassin

Body Tracks

this is a warm welcome
I'm utterly surprised
but I can't suppress the pressure
that's building at the base of my skull
what are we waiting for?
get it on
what are we waiting for?
let's get it on
you're not really interested
all this drivel leads to nowhere
paralyzing ostentation of yourself
you'll find my body tracks
I can't fight the feeling
the floor becomes the ceiling
I'll bleed it out
a self-explaining tragedy
an homage to cain's heresy
you're not really interested
all this drivel leads to nowhere
paralyzing ostentation of yourself
you'll find my body tracks
you're quite a doll
perfect cut-out
splendent whore
covered my eyes
buried the hope
now I'll neutralize pain
this place smells like hell
you'll have to force me to inhale
you were never interested
all this drivel leads to nowhere
paralyzing ostentation of yourself
you'll find my body tracks

all the noise
all the pain of life
collides right here
pounding hearts
pulsating flesh
full of gracious fear
black eyes
stare into a
vicious grin
the shame of a lifetime
slowly digs its way
under my skin

pain
you offer
yet I refuse
but sooner or later I'll accept the laughter
mistress
come on
sentence me
question identity
I'll come up with an answer too complex to question
suck it
pedants eyes shall fall from the sky
while your careless irreverence's peeling my skin
and who I am
nor who you are
matters in this game
you order
I obey
never underestimate
the destructive power of change
lately, all my precious thespian talents fail
pain
oh, let me suffer
it's the sweetest disguise of all
well, you're the obsession I'll never overcome
a twelve-part confession
seals: we all fall down
sometime
my tongue is an awful friend
misery my only company
regression

Portrait of Gala

I'd do anything for love
she said
the limitation in your mind
is one you've set yourself
the walls are getting closer
this home's become my cage
she yelled at me
the more i try to focus
the more we blur away
she knew I was lost
no I can't stay around here
I've grown out of this skin
I'll do anything for love
I scream and shout
I've broken the limitation in my head
too late - she's gone
there's no more time to focus
it all just slips away
now
in sepia I see her majesty
hail to the queen
in sepia I see her majesty
hail to the queen
how close is the end?
oh I'll stop to breath
how close can I get?
no you'll never leave
how close?
in sepia I see her majesty
hail to the queen

all in all
it's just a payback
for the mess you have left
for the mess that I'm in
all in all
it's just a paycheck
I now wander with god
into the wild I belong
I can't find my feet

silence
we'll bail you out
this is what we stand for
the meaning
you've turned us inside out
now we're well prepared for
the ending
we won't compete

Permanent Transient
07:40
|
|
||
Oh, I bit my tongue Oh, I faced a zillion standoffs
faceless
traveled endless miles
with every step in search of answers
well, the answer is that
I cannot keep up with you
sacred eye
I cannot smother this emptiness
no more show
bones, they break
as time fades
away these streets have cleared my view
I'm wide awake
take a look at this house
it's full of broken hearts
and every room's a proof
for what I am not
seems like I've been growing old in timeless space
you and I - we'll make it through the night
it's really worth a try
I'm sick of my sleepy eyes
we'll run away
a house doesn't make a home
I caught a glimpse into the gloom
and realized that I'm a permanent transient

Drift Away
06:07
|
|

you could take the action now
you could take the action
but you frown and fall to pieces
sad testament of a life doused with lies
head for the exit now
head for the exit
but you freeze and get replaced by others
the captain sinks with his bottled ship
but I guess that's what you do
that's just something that you do
remain in silence
there she stands and lingers on
her whole life is just based on
these few minutes and thoughts
oh, I thought I know her
I'm anxious and striving to get away
I must center myself
it's a waiting game
how to stand all this shit another day?
no empathy my father fails I sense
whatever I say
she'll drift away
we owe you something
we owe you something real
you could take the action now
you could take the action
but you frown and fall to pieces
I'm driving out there
I'm striving to get away
I must center myself
it's a waiting game
how to stand all this shit another day?
no empathy my father fails I sense
whatever I say
she'll drift away

Lusca

this eloquent elegance
sings me to sleep every note an ode to what I'll never ever be
tranquilized head
weighs heavy on her chest
breathing deep
her softest scent fills me with the warmth I've missed
make your way
through to me
something pure
is ours to see
time took me here
to search and pick up the parts of hundreds of hearts you once possessed
I guess they're still beating in your chest
make your way
through to me
something pure
is ours to see
make your way
honesty
nothing lasts
nothing's safe
from what once was
to what will never be
there's a bridge
there's this bridge
where are you ?
all I can see is
eight arms
widely stretched
into
the sky
all I can hear is
three pounding hearts
screaming goodbye
Lusca's here

Fragment III: Closure
01:41

we washed the core
we built an end
another mime
a false pretense
you think it'll preserve us from time
a secret voice
invites us in
another game
another win
no - you can no more decide on what's right
farewell my dear friend
I'm not supposed to speak out loud
that I am what you've made me
it's the only truth I know
but still I try
and still you lie to me

Cliffhanger
07:22

seven more feet
just seven more feet there's the edge
take a drag and gaze into the chasm of perception
seven more feet
just seven more feet
you've found
the path of escape
a firm route out
tell me, how high did you think 'd you get?
how far did they drag you away?
It's still you I feel here
the same old rush
you're a bird
flying up high
you chose the saddest way of saying goodbye
you're a mystery that reveals the unexpected
lord I twist 'n' turn and hope it all makes sense in the end
seven more feet just seven more feet there's the edge
an insight in pure isolated noise
tell me, how high did you think you'd get?
how far did they drag you away?
you're a bird
flying up high
you chose the saddest way of saying goodbye
you're a mystery that reveals the unexpected
lord I twist 'n' turn and hope it all makes sense in the end
for you
you're a bird
flying up high
you chose the saddest way of saying goodbye
you're a mystery that reveals the unexpected
lord I twist 'n' turn and hope it all makes sense in the end
you're a mystery that reveals the unexpected
you're a sign in the air
you're the sound in the air
the colors I bleed
the symphony I feel
you're the sum of all signs
