Лирика

1. Leave Scars

I am an angel of darkness
Abhorrent to those who are frail
The strength inside me is my will to believe
In myself, with no self-betrayal
My force is my own preservation
My destiny mine to control
I don't live my life to be judged by anyone
Surviving intact is my role

Lost time is never found again
Screaming through my life of speed – insanity, mach ten
I utilize the life I've been given
Or else it's as if I've never been

I take pains to make my presence known
If it's a negative impression then I'll take the blame alone
I have no regrets and I call my life my own
I have no time for the words left in stone

I acknowledge only one thing;
My own authority
Answering to no one, I leave no trace of pity
My independence rules my life
I can't help what you are
For this I won't apologize
Because I leave scars!!!
I promise you agony
If you attempt to intervene
Just pay attention to yourself, you're barely existing
I'm thriving on the life I lead
A veteran of human wars
For this I won't apologize...
Because I leave scars!!!

I practice angelic darkness
My convictions keep wolves from my door
I know what it means to have someone tamper with my dreams
Deflowering my essence, my core
I once sought no recrimination
But now I seek the price be paid
Forever wary, always guarded against anyone
Who's mistaken me for easy prey

Defeatist attitudes are only in vain
As you wonder of my species – must I really be explained?
Realize now that I'm ingrained
Knowingly, forever on your brain

Nemeses falter in their plebian ways
Employing methods to usurp my reign, my inner maze
Seeking clues to uncover the clever turn of phrase
Salient words are found amidst the haze

I acknowledge only one thing;
My own authority
Answering to no one, leave no trace of pity
My independence rules my life
I can't help what you are
For this I won't apologize
Because I leave scars!!!
I promise you agony
If you attempt to intervene
Just pay attention to yourself, you're barely existing
I'm thriving on the life I lead
A veteran of human wars
For this I won't apologize
Because I leave scars!!!

A mercenary I may be, I tend to feel I'm not
My only need is to maintain my lot
I have a lust for life that stands to be my legacy
I'm proud to say, "with my life, I am free"

To leave a mark, necessity, my memory redeemed
I suffer not from lack of self-esteem
Someday my confidence will be a mass contagion
I assure you this is no self-exaltation

I cicatrize myself upon your mind
You won't forget my actions as you will find

I'm lord and master
Of my own future!!!

I am the darkest of angels!!!
Indomitable in my will to succeed
I have a goal to ascertain
Entrenching myself upon your brain
These words I've bled upon this page
Have come from inside, how quickly I've aged
My innocence has died and was buried long ago
Eternally joined with a part of my soul

The weak of heart need not apply
I admit they're not for all – my caffeinated ways of life
Those who oppose me will end in bitter strife
Defacing human minds until I die

Those with open minds will benefit from my vows
A self-betrothal where I pay no heed to sacred cows
Further discussion time will not allow
Until we meet I'll take my bow

And remember...

I acknowledge only one thing;
My own authority
Answering to no one, leave no trace of pity
My independence rules my life
I can't help what you are
For this I won't apologize
Because I leave scars!!!
I promise you agony
If you attempt to intervene
Just pay attention to yourself, you're barely existing
I'm thriving on the life I lead
A veteran of human wars
For this I won't apologize...
Because I leave scars!!!

2. The Burning Of Sodom

Once, the tale of Sodom
Brought anguish to the eyes
Of all god-fearing people
With eternal afterlives
Sin and lust run rampant now
Perversion on the rise
Reliving all the ways of old
Gommorrah realized

Sodom, an unholy place
Angels searched for a few
Souls who'd yet to fall from grace
To save them from the doom
Paradise of pleasures lost
Herein the future lies
Laughing at the "holy cross"
As death rained from the skies

Falling from the heavens
Angels lie decayed
Burning, city of Sodom
One by one, sinners pay

Skeptics failed to heed the call
Of angels sent to tell
Of the impending death to all
In blazing city hell
Consorting with the demons craft
The ways of god repelled
Burning cross, cause to laugh
Lot, the one expelled

Falling from the heavens
Angels lie decayed
Burning, city of Sodom
One by one, sinners pay

The sufferers' impalement
Inside the city gates
Worshipping the holy priests
The masters of all hate
The flag of the inverted cross
Menacing, held high
Laughing at the "holy cross"
At twelve, the virgin dies!!!

Our righteous family did escape
The family-father lot
Sinful daughters succumbed to rape
Not as holy as thought!!!
Mankind throughout eternity
Built on evils' designs
The resilience of iniquity
Lives on in christian minds

Falling from the heavens
Angels lie decayed
Burning, city of Sodom
One by one, sinners pay!!!

3. Never To Rise Again

Reality has come to call
A modern-day plague upon us all
As we've come to pass and deal with strife
Afflicted ailments dissipate life
For all false prophets predict time of doom
The demise of man shall come too soon
With each passing of the dying day
The false ones predict and finally say,
We are...

Never to rise again
Never to rise again
We are never to rise again
Never to rise again

The time for peace for all is dead
The coming of christ – "I'm here", he said
With each passing monarch depressions' tool
The people submit to the false one's rule
As the world turns now in reverse
Honesty in life shall be dispersed
With each passing of the dying day
The false ones predict and finally say,
We are...
Never to rise again
Never to rise again
We are never to rise again
Never to rise again

We look to the sky in a constant wonder
With ideals collide and bring us under
Veils of death lifes' mystery
Profits are claimed but never seen
All that we ask is life to share
Free from hatred, pain, despair
With each passing of the dying day
The false ones predict and finally say,
We are...
Never to rise again
Never to rise again
We are never to rise again
Never to rise again

4. Death Is Certain (Life Is Not)

Respecting your wishes
My brother, you wish to die
In a bed surrounded by tubes
Immobility's cast its shadow
In your body numbness reigns
You've calculated your demise
Your future racked with pain
I'll take the life behind your eyes

There was a time when death was distant
And the fire of life burned bright
Now we realize life's no constant
No will to life, death's a right
Euthanasia, not murder
Act of mercy to escape
Society's form of torture
To let you live this way

Death is certain
Life is not
Your mind's in torment
Waiting to rot
The final curtain
Always draws it close
When death is certain
The end unfolds

From the neck down, you're senseless
From the neck up, you're alive
And the politics of humanity
Refuse to let you die
And all the while you plot your death
With me at your side
Your last wish, your brain to rest
Your bondage ropes untied

And the prayer for miracles is through
For there's no god to care

Do unto others as done to you
Without a doubt he isn't there
I won't make a mistake with faith
Christ's a waste of time
How can I put my trust in god
With innocent people dying?

Paralytic disease infests your brain
Debilitates your mind
A vegetable wasting, decaying
You're running out of time
All I know is what you said
Before the comas' grip
Don't want to live your life brain dead
To death you crave to slip

The needle's pulled from in your arm
The pulse of life has stopped
Your granted plea, a painless death
To arrive at the end you'd sought
The cryptic statement – bonded truth
Lie peaceful in your grave
Did we just give up on you?
I hope you have been saved...

Death is certain
Life is not
Your mind lies dormant
Proceeding to rot
The final curtain
Has drawn its close
When death is certain
The end unfolds!

5. The Promise Of Agony

You tell me what will become of us?
Are the lines so drawn and the stage so set,
That as we age what reamins is burdened sufferance?
My mortality looms in its visage is doom,
And it's speaking to me alone.
The years will unfold but what is the use?
In solitude I'm left to atone.

The sins of my past are returning to gnaw at my core,
The scars I have left and those that have been left on me.
My purpose in life, is it unfair to assume I have one?
I'm not fooling myself, what now awaits is a nightmarish end.

What I'm saying, do you understand?
Do you know what it's like to feel inadequate?
And the future ahead has no place for you,
As if you ever thought it did...
Alone in my shell, if I come out I'll die,
I don't want to escape though I should.
No, just leave me alone, *I don't want your help!!! *
Yeah, if you could ease my pain you would... (right!)

No, you don't even know me!
And your words of comfort fall upon deaf and frightened ears,
I lament my bitter fate, lachrymation upon examining my fears.
I've built a fortress around my soul, impregnable the door,
I refuse to admit you to my netherworld.
You're correct, I've absolved my self-control,
This spiraled course depression has me on.

AGONY!
I'M A STUDY IN DESPAIR, DOMINEERED BY THE PROMISE OF AGONY!
AND THE HAPPINESS IS BOUND, AND THE HOPELESSNESS IS FOUND.
I'M IN AGONY!!!
CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND, DESPONDENCY COMMANDS MY AGONY!
and I'm waiting to die alone...

As I'm drowning in a sea of abused visions and shattered dreams,
A chilling descent into a phobic hell,
Insanity's blade performs it's correctional surgery.
Impending doom in this blackened room, I can give this all away.
It's all so easy to capitulate, Nothing is making me stay...

Retreating within and hiding behind my wall.
Dealing without, there's no escape from this moribund state.
Awaiting deep sleep, we don't care if I don't wake.
In darkness' hands though terrified, I feel safe.

I don't fit into the scheme of things!
These years as an outcast are quickly wearing thin.
My carefree days are a thing of the past,
And I welcome the fact that I'm coming to an end.
Melancholy, my bride, I devote unto thee,
My, breath, my mind and my soul.
As silence washes over me, I've never been so tired, so cold...

Confusion seizes unto me,
Manacled and beaten, chained up by it's frozen vice.
This is killing me, but my mind is set, and I'm too weak to fight.
Have you any idea what it's like to want to die?
Then you will know from where I speak.
This winter in my soul,
This winter in my soul...

AGONY!
I'M A STUDY IN DESPAIR, DOMINEERED BY THE PROMISE OF AGONY!
AND THE HAPPINESS IS BOUND, AND THE HOPELESSNESS IS FOUND.
I'M IN AGONY!!!
CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND, DESPONDENCY COMMANDS MY AGONY!
and I want to be left alone...

Yet again, I have no answers,
The confusion of my fate takes it's toll.
Symbolically speaking, what's another life
That lists "ending itself" as its one and only goal?
I've examined my options and I see nothing in my sight,
Is there an avenue I've yet to explore?
As of now, I'm decided I have nothing to live for...

Defeated, alone, yet you laugh at the state I'm in!
I can't help what I am, but you think this is all in my head.
I'm not asking for help, but I want you to understand,
That I'm going away, you guess if I'm coming back.

You wish I had a will to live?
This condition I'm in didn't happen overnight.
I've hated myself for an eternity,
Now I finally feel that I'm doing something right.
As darkness descends I behold the Candlemass,
I seek intimacy with death.
Again, you're correct, these feelings will pass,
When my memory is all you have left.

My life has metamorphosed,
Into a marriage of the twisted and macabre.
I'm sitting here now feeling the effects of my words,
Trying to see a reason why I should go on.
I have to wonder, do I still believe in God?
'Cause God no longer believes in me.
I lay myself down for my final peace,
I welcome Death, my spirit is free...

AGONY!
I'M A STUDY IN DESPAIR, DOMINEERED BY THE PROMISE OF AGONY!
AND THE HAPPINESS IS BOUND, AND THE HOPELESSNESS IS FOUND.
I'M IN AGONY!!!
CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND, DESPONDENCY COMMANDS MY AGONY!
and I'm pleading to die alone...

6. We Have Arrived

7. The Death Of Innocence

My imbalanced mind is unaccepted by society,
My life is ruled by urges – sickened impropriety.
In this day and age, strangely enough, some factions remain blind,
To my manipulation of a puerile kind.

Their impressionable minds cannot tell wrong from right,
A degenerate, I am an immoral blight.
Upon the attitudes of "Unliberated" souls,
I'm sick I know,
I'm sick I know!

As a lower form of life with a psychotic rage,
That's identified intensified against underaged.
They have no fear yet to share what is theirs,
In act of love intended for their older years.

I crawl into their brains, they love me more each day,
They're old enough to know, I don't care what you say.
They're old enough to love, I don't care what you say,
Aren't they?
Aren't they?!?!

I beg not forgiveness, just a cure for this sickness,
As it stands now, there's no hope in sight.
My brain is filled with degradation, tormenting excruciation,
Decadence is ruling my life.
Bloodless lambs' purity lost, victims of my holocaust,
My unclean hands defile without reason.
More sinned than sinning, anguished memories just beginning,
When thoughts turn upon this bitter season.

A rapist of naivete, a killer of virginity,
I stand for the death of innocence!!!
Young bodies cannot stand the pain,
I'm torturing their little brains,
I am the death of innocence!
Only sickened filth, disgusting scum,
Would do the appalling deeds I've done,
Crushing with psychotic malevolence!
I can't control my gross addiction,
Feeding mental pain infliction,
Fall to the death of innocence!

Ostracized by my peers in my formative years,
I've grown up craving unconditional love.
That's why I've turned to my friends with our illegal, illicit trysts,
They'll only understand me if they're young.

God, I can't believe I'm scarring their young lives for all time,
Not only bodies but their sweet, chaste, virginal minds.
I'm more than willing to, if caught, let death be my fine,
Someone catch me, I deserve to die!!!

Somebody please stop or kill me!
My actions must be stopped before I strike again.
Before, I didn't care what I was doing,
But now I know I am an aberration.

Demented brain keeping youthful slaves,
I'm a man obsessed, committing mentacide.
Sending innocence to its grave,
Standing at the coffin, set to eulogize.

A rapist of naivete, a killer of virginity,
I stand for the death of innocence!!!
They cannot understand the shame
The torture of their little brains,
I am the death of innocence!
Only sickened filth, disgusting scum,
Would do the appalling deeds I've done,
Crushing with psychotic malevolence!
I can't control my gross addiction,
Feeding mental pain infliction,
Fall to the death of innocence!
