Ride the vortex winds with the beast inside
|
Cast down all memories from a past and future world
|
The cynic icons and the cryptic writings
|
As a picturesque creation in force and spirit
|
Against their reason and will, it is time
|
Give darkness it's passion plea
|
|
The venomous tongue
|
The inevitable poison
|
Paralyze the angels
|
Freeze the forgiven
|
Baptize in fire
|
Unleash the devil at heart
|
|
Unleash the maelstrom mephisto
|
|
[chorus:]
|
So sinner, mourn well
|
Make all the swans suffer in hell
|
The maelstrom of the mephisto left the trace
|
To revel and feast in undelivered grace
|
|
Pledged to judgmental arrogance in
|
Drawn principles of ignorant falsehood
|
To comprehend that the sin of life is life itself
|
A tyranny in torment, an inner-sanctum stealing sleep
|
|
In the dimness surrounding the towers of the castle
|
Where the ravens spread their wings out wide
|
Dwell in depths of the darker self at any shore of infinity
|
And watch the relentless paint the soil black
|
What is being formed echoes throughout eternity
|
As the painter chooses color no more
|
|
Hold your shadows close when the comedy is over
|
As the days of mourning seem to be the days of joy
|
Fragments fell from the sky in order to penetrate the eyes
|
A convict wallowing in a lifetime of lies:lies
|
