Alone I Stand In FiresIn awkward times at awkward places …
Rogues in glitter robes, with fierce grimaces
Sneak around me glowering.
I should be running away
But I keep standing here in fires.
Sinister choirs of whip-lashing demons
With circling vultures in a dreadful allegiance.
And The Mirror CrackedIt came from dismal shadows
Creeping, sudden, from behind.
fell upon my merry whistle
darkened me at heart and sight.
Back with me, one again with the memory
Again I behold the ruins
that I left when I was all devoured by wrath.
Dread ItRound and round the rumors fly
Your promises were just a lie
The handshake made you shiver
that I could tell clearly I was standing right behind you
Today it all went up into the blue
Not quite far enough
You promised us the moon
FallDeep it must have been
The thorn that spread a veil of constancy
Times in stalemate, times of certitude
Again and again this wound
It's these moments
When the comfort of the bygone
And the light of long gone days
Enchant me with their hollow songs
GloriaIt's warlike
In the streetlight
And we elbow our way through the pale night
It's everybody elses dream
But not mine
I'm not that kind
Warlike
Save The PastSo here we stand the day has come
The hit was hard and long the run
And as long as it might take me
I want to come home to the place to go
Got a note that said it’s overdue
Had a thought but too much else to do
And what’s left now is all but quicksand
The Black SeaLyrics for The Black Sea by Disillusion
There is dancing in the sea
Shadows move they just cannot be real
Shadows go and you are left with me
Take a step and feel the sea
Come flee, let the sea be sea
The Long Way Down To EdenOnly one step away from the core
One tiny step to purge the soul
One more vision to shatter
Oh, come sweet dreams
Sweet illusions of a bleak
I see the vipers in the distance
as they come to feed me.
The Sleep of Restless HoursImposture!
At the peak of my triumphant march
Conjuration!
Doubt befalls me so close to the end.
Cannot move any further
Feet are tired from the haste
So close to the finale
