The Faustian Dilemma
01:39
|

"Zwei Seelen wohnen, Ach! in meiner Brust
Die eine will sich von der anderen trennen"
- Goethes Faust
"Two souls inhabit, aw, my breast
one wants to part from the other one"
- Goethe's Faust

Forever or You

Forever or you
I can never be the stars
on your mind
How can I
share your view
that you wave about
like a blunted hatchet
on its way to the trunk
No need
to destroy one's heart
to see what's inside
"What I possess seems far away to me
and what is gone becomes reality"
- from Goethe's Faust

Rosegarden

Wear the mask from the other side
It may suit you that way
Hide your face and seize
glistening dreams on a
summer's night
At first glance it was real
it had such an appeal
a rosegarden of everything... and nothing
it's not hard to retreat
from a belief in deceit
despite all the spells cast by a smile
It comes in phases, the stares, the gazes, the scent, getting lost
getting lost in a rosegarden of everything and nothing
Whatever the moon might reveal
It feels kind of surreal
It reflects and attracts midnight flowers
Is it even allowed
to throw rocks in this pond
to keep the circles moving?

Fomalhaut

|

You took me by surprise
Almost like a thief
A source created
by your belief
Wherever I go
I walk in circles
Whenever you leave
you leave a crack in the mirror
Choose your destiny
Would you call out for more?
Develop a taste
for a certain dismay
to silence the echo
of words never said
Wherever you go
I fall in your footsteps
Whenever I see you - I see you
through a glass, darkly

What I Saw
03:41
|

Turn your head
until our hearts collide
your concise emotions
errupt me to the core
Shake my mind
until my darkness goes
the sun in your eyes
makes my horizon glow
makes me burn
Blur my vision
until I see... clearly
Wake me up
estimate my purity
Open ym eyes
and paint a smile on me
Uncover my strength
squeeze my fermented heart
unlock my chest
where all my secrets lie
secrets lie

Vampyres Like Us
04:04
|

Vampyres like us
never here and always there
we have seen things
you cannot bear
divine and cursed alike
driven by your warm desire
come with us and fly
into a night that never ends
Vampyres like us
free from their dreams
your hot red cheeks
make our cold hearts beat
Blackened eyes
pale white skin
the fountain of youth
oh, be our sin tonight!

Hear the leaves cry
they compete with the wind
Feel the rain
all over your skin
Fear the wrath
of the storm to come
You felt the same once
when I bruised you inside
Remember...
stormy days... neverending
Black clouds created
fear of tomorrow
Written on your face
your cold embrace
You hid under my wing
where we kissed
the skies away
Distant faces, confined to be buried
in wet hands, a tight embrace
Cold lips stumble
upon words left unsaid
Swallowed by rain
A thirst for dreams remains
The second time
you painted the horizon blue
you threw the sun
right into the sea
