You see, control can never be a means to any practical end... It can never be a means to anything but more control.

Somewhere on the cross of roads We led us astray, headlights went out. We were laughing, but scared, We were fallen about it. And we wanted to get far Away from this haven of snakes. The script of night we are not able To read. It's in the cradle. Lo, behold, we are already Tearing through rivers and towns. Void and cold and lonesome ones; It's time to stop running around. -- And we finally took this trip One afternoon in autumn. Our feet, touching the mountain peak; Let's take this train or this big ship. And we sleep next to each other, Hand in hand, and from now on I smile at the grey November skies. So we are taking time.

Moaning wind is driving faster Shadows follows you and you wander 'til the black crux rise in front of you You've found everything was after you It was like jumping in river trying to save yourself From rain and it was like many times rose again And many times he died. but you don't get it So give your life blood in blood pit You had uncontrol Never willing to step out of hole You had uncontrol Never was enough in your soul Here's a scream of unlived life Unresting crying at the skies And avid jaws consuming time The only one snapshot in your line Falling you see the cruxes walk Thus somber mass fights last time For a long distance to earthborn heart You had uncontrol, this was last start You had uncontrol Never willing to step out of hole You had uncontrol Never was enough in your soul

A thousand boys are coming inside The closets, the attics, on branches of trees And dust is blowing in the wind Over the silver of their skinny ease –—— Splinters of pearls, opals are falling Silently through clean air I heard a cry is speeding away Outside for miles of despair Time overpass them, boys Now turn into senile men For years and years of idle musing The dream has grown into nothing —— Train is passing through while roaring Droning steamboat, wailing horn Me start thinking it's all only Because of things were left undone

Become Blind 02:48
Cold blind windows That's all I see Light has gone far So far from me Shadows are waiting for coming night Waiting for you to become blind Faces are hidden in deep mirrors Souls are damned endlessly, so They cold hands touching your neck They are near, behind your back

Do you know what I need? To escape into mountains, surrounded by tall trees, A dream of grand green landscapes Of a sun piercing the clouds Of a pure and sparkling water Of the scent of trees and the earth. Each winter, I hope that in disappearing, the snow will show Earth' true face. I will lay on the moss, and breath in the scent of flowers and wet soil. Little by little, the city corrupts me Obstructing my joyous thoughts ‘til the dream dies. One day I will wake and open my black like asphalt eyes And I will cry the tar tears My blackened lungs miss the pure air And my numbed heart like a bird out of nest.
7.
The sun shines brightly But never truly warms And my words are senseless I fear somebody got me wrong It was not what I expected Have you seen her scars? Her arms are gashed so much At night she fell apart 'cause one cannot be played again. In my hair there is a wind And I stare at cold sun Don't you really feel the perennial void? I just fly In the heavens high Foggy blur for my mind And I am not uptight
8.
Wordless silence But whispers outside the wall in the night Trying desperately to incarnate Trying not to lose myself in the light Noisy car is leaving me In darkness disappearing without a trace Bad luck to write my lines, words make in rhymes Until my soul is completely numb. Clocks are ticking relentlessly Breaking days in me I am already gone under this rain Eternal emptiness in this pain I hear the flowing of her clothes And easy footsteps goes From her black and white toes Against the all laws But it's alright As she said It's all alright Just as she said

Orlok 13:00
I decline to go further, land of spectre there is Diabolical ride move to requiem mess With his sinister features he seems the bat He will give you the place with bed Moving in trance, he will catch you at night And now in the daylight your punctures are burning bright Go find him in his crypt, resting dormant Here in the coffin his name is the bird of death.
