Maleficium
This Illusion Of Humanity
1. Downfall
High above the world
On a golden throne
He is powerfull
Worshipped by thousands
He is enjoying
All the attention
Looking over his kingdom
And his people
He is feeling proud
And so he should be
But outside his kingdom
He is just like us
Unawareness in this state of mind
Prevents him from seeing that
The king is now dethroned
All of his subjects have deserted him
All because of his incapability
To act normally
But outside his kingdom
He is just like us
Unawareness in this state of mind
Prevents him from seeing that
Someone else has taken over his position
Past glory faded away
Alone and crying
He dies
2. Questions of Existence
3. Uncovered Intentions
Words of truth turned to lie
Spoken with a twisted feeling
Time will reveal those words
without meaning
Incomprehension within the mind
Too naive for reality
Immoral behaviour
Below human dignity
Domination of disbelief
Controls the imagination
Containing imaginary visions
Obtained by this illusion
Analysing those meaningless words
Of a dream that could not be
Will the intentions be uncovered
As they will manipulate the future for me
Time will reveal those words
without meaning
4. Disillusion
Misery in my crypt of life
Just lost my world
Walls are tumbling down
Trust, my everlasting goal
Mutual, the only thing I want
And if you don't feel that way
Turn your back on me
Explain what you see
Tell my life to me
Look inside yourself
And face what's not going to be
People playing a double game
Disapproval of honesty
My face is right here
Scared to tell me the truth?
Decide for me if I can't handle your way
5. The Family Game
I am proud of my existence
Parents know I'm present
Part of deranged minds
Under the skin of our civilized society
Civilized HA!
Born with first human
Imbedded in our genes
My life into eternity
Reduces humanity into animality
Nightmare of our society
Plague of humankind
Children will pay high prices
Until parenthood dies
It is the game
You won't forget
Commit me, a rapist you will be
Running in the family
Inflicting everything
Hushed up by community
It is the game
It is the pain
You won't forget
The Family Game
6. Hydrogen
The ultimate solution is on its way
Most elementary part of life,
yet most destructive
There it goes on its pillar of fire
Smallest part, most destructive
On its way to the other side
It cannot hide, seek shelter
Neither can its victims
Devided from the driver
Falling is the only way
Objective in sight, no salvation
A hundred megatonnes will find a space
In a split second unleashed
One sun activates the other
Ten million degrees at the core
Concrete becomes glass
What is not melted is blown apart
Shadows carved in rock
The lucky ones evaporate
The others suffer in pain
Death by brain or intestinal disease
Afterlife is your future
Afterlife is your future
7. The Irreversable Solution
Infinite anguish, my hideous burden
Life doesn't match expectancy,
growing discontence
Status quo is for the mindless,
though dreams deceive
First goal, done or failed,
doubt will always be
Selfishness,
the crime that both sides are guilty of
Whatever decision, infinite suffering
All that's left in my life
Is not worth living for
Please, do not let me be
Peace is what I seek right now
Don't take irreversable solutions
There's always a sun behind those clouds
This blasphemous behaviour
results in double sin
Part of Creation, my thoughts can't be
So be it, take our best wishes
on your journey into the void
Peace is mine at last
Guilt following blindness,
by which we suffer now
Blindness for your agitations of mind
Blindness for your solitude
Everything remained was distress
Was it worth living for?
Embodying your position
Would I have that courage?
Let thy hereafter not be prosperous
May the perpetrators be prosecuted
A bad example of a wasted life
The sheep will know betrayal
May he know the wisdom of infinity
The wisdom you will once collect
