Secrets Of The Moon
Sun
1. No More Colours
I was given just one life
one heart
one soul
two hands
one hand to paint on canvas
one hand to stroke the skull
I was given just one chance to find the absent pieces
to clutch the blistering myriads of wounds
I was given just two hands
to turn the heavens upside down
now these are mountain summits to defeat
there is an end of joy
once the end leaps like a flame
Tu t’es perdu sur le chemin
Ta foi t’a mené à ta perte
Cesse de contrôler ton destin
Ta peur reflète ton ignorance
Et la misère de ta piteuse existence
Laisse toi aveugler par la Lumière
Laisse toi gagner par les Ténèbres
Laisse les voix pénétrer ta chair
Il te faut perdre tes certitudes pour avoir accès au Divin
Laisse toi gagner par la Lumière
she gave me all that I promised to protect
here is the rood, here is the rose
here are the stones that hit you
from this day the clock hand is the scythe
and it cuts the mirth, the singing and the light
there is an end of joy
once the end leaps like a flame
draw
black charcoal
scythe
it cuts the mirth, the singing and the light
draw
black charcoal
scythe
no colours will ever reach the sky
I was not able to speak when my word was born
so I painted in colours until the colours were gone
2. Dirty Black
Traveling untrodden paths
with all the ghosts around
can not escape the phantom light
gliding above the ground
crack the sky, it‘s over now
we’re beyond the reach of god
yet our children will be there
to reach out for what is not
holy evil, fathers cane, insomnia and pain
a feather, tar and evil spirits, inertia and cocaine
the melting sky above us
the winter passes by
no inner shelter for those
who are hungr y for life
where do we go now
crumbling marionette
slowly chunks are falling
upon the dirty black
silver spoon, angel dust, christus in the rain
a feather, tar and evil spirits, inertia and cocaine
this dirty black
skies that twist and overlay
like a sea of rattle snakes
this dirty black
silhouettes at the crossroads
waiting to take the step
virgin white
like fallen snow
eternal cities fall to rest
no we won’t beg
who is behind the black
walking down
the longest road
following visions of our lives
hear not the sounds
from who is behind the skies
lasting love of my life
neophyte and king
another day
no longer suffering
holy evil
face of hope
inertia in the rain
another day
there is no suffering
3. Man Behind The Sun
Sometimes when it‘s dark I see the man staring at the sun
with his eyes open wide not blinded by the light
it seems so long that I followed him down the lightish way
and once I distressed him it got darker with each day
sometimes when it’s dark he kisses my lips with vermillion
he whose mouth is like a flame
’til my tongue is torn and bleeding
and as the spirits gather in the coldness of the field
I started waving the flag
and through the black morass I fled, I jumped, I fell
nowhere to find my way
by sunrise I’ll try to break him
I don’t know where he is from
and when it falls I try to take him
the man behind the sun
I passed the garden grey until the fields felt endlessly
and I saw him standing desperately by the oldest of the trees
I sat in the black field and storms shook the corn
I heard the woeful cries of men
by sunrise I’ll tr y to break him
I don’t know where he is from
and when it falls I tr y to take him
the man behind the sun
severe storms destroyed the fields of sorrow
my calls fell silently alone
the flag I waved before was long gone
taken by the man behind the sun
at sunrise I tried to break him
I don’t know where he is gone
and as he fell I stood behind him
the man behind the sun
4. Hole
Fever now, start the cure
near and far, all is lost
angel with empty eye-sockets
the refined shall be your witness
from all the sounds that swing the universe
no one‘s ever gotten near you until now
gods and mortals
animal
it’s time to face the truth
there is no hope
give away yourself into the hole
church and temple
synagogue
it’s time to speak the truth
there is no hope
just wait and see right through
seven kings – on the seven tops of the world
throwing crowns into the void
four wounded angels – in the four corners of the world
holding daunting winds and let loose
now it’s time to bend me down on my knees
5. Here Lies The Sun
The deepest hades
the mirror walls
like rolling thunder
this starving chaos
a rancid lair
a maze of ailments
so little did we know
blood sweeping cherub
stench from the mouth
the mouth of satan
here lies the sun with her children unseen
(invert) the living light
under the perished heaven dome remains the dawn of night
(pitch black) gaia divine
descend, the world needs you now – rewind
the darkest winter
black is the snow
black is the ocean
so little did we know
unaware of beauty
lambent in dust
it saw us die before
prayer and sermon
cut the silence
echoed in the distance
drowned in ascending storms
and as long as she alters the glare
she will be at my side
a revelation emerges
a holy lamp of the night
the slaves will be kings they‘ll be
and from ivory towers they dive
to find life
to find eternity
here lies the sun with her children unseen
under the perished heaven dome
6. I Took The Sky Away
Ineffable perception
one body unfold
the clean white
the shattered skin
now take the sky away
the moment you spoke out my name
you were too far away
now that I have written these songs for you
I can barely remember your face
your arms up in the mephitic air
out of reach on torrid chairs
you said the words you needed to say
but I lost your voice again
silence keeps burning your tongue
quicksand filling your vessels
you shall not forgive me this time
intoxicating possession
I took the sky away
welcome endless day
the moment you spoke out my name
you were too far away
now that I have sung this song for you
I can finally see your face
7. Mark Of Cain
I spear the wings now
cain has released the dark
brother bring the devil’s thunder
rabid winds and sacred storms
whatever is between us it is here
there’s no room, it aches it burns
acid showers pouring down
you bring abject dark
I bring the world
shine now rampant light
eerie beauty timeless signal
victorious center of deceit
we fall into spaces blind
a maze of filth and rotten skies
you’re the only one to look inside
cain – murderer – maker
down in eden’s deepest grave
we all come in from the burning
let the undercurrent drag you along
find them – beat the horse
look in every corner
they can help you
they can extinguish the inside
they needed to tell you
that time is running out
but they could not
no they could not
they could not
they could not
they could not
please – lookout – help us – find us
tie us to the ground
cain – murderer – maker
