1. I Want to Forget I want to forget, Your touch – The warmth of your embrace I wish to forget, Your eyes – That most bewitching gaze I need to forget, Your lips – The sweetest I have known How I dream to forget, The most beautiful woman in the world The laughter… Exquisite torture The winking… Lures me to the void Get out of my mind, I don’t want to know you anymore! You’ve burned all the bridges of my senses I want to forget, All the time we spent together I wish to forget, And erase you forever I need to forget, I’ll light myself ablaze How I dream to forget, Delving into empty space 2. My Flesh and the Sacred River My journey to the Holy Land has just begun I prepare myself to die away My spirit is ready, my flesh comes undone I think of you and sign my name All your tears... Candles and a river of blood Forgotten memories of a young man with too much heart But still I was always trying Disturbing God I asked, “May I come in?” Hoping for some other way to die It's my will, I tell Him, my desire I wish to step away from here Time to go into Necropolis My frail soul rises from the grave I know some things are real But others you cannot explain What does it mean? My lips are sealed When you're gone – you’ve won! The clock ticks away Now deep oceans and all the rivers Are flowing through my head Am I so phenomenal? Tell me what's going on 3. Suprema Why don't you call my name? Our feelings are the same I sense you feel insane You're my one and only aim The only one in my heart And ‘til death do us part My eyes should tell you the story I beg you please, you must stay! Leaving you... it's suicide Just got little bit high You said, “Go back,” and I left I’ve gone away again Suprema! My true love Suprema! Sense of life Suprema! You’re above me Suprema! You’re alive for me I know your hate is a lie I'm not with you, but I try I want to hold you, my love My tender snow-white dove I'm yours and you are mine Demonic and divine Now you've left me again Alone with awful pain Suprema! My true love Suprema! Sense of life Suprema! You’re above me Suprema! You’re alive for me 4. The Light of the Black Sun Look at me, look at me I'm just like ashes in the wind, And I fly away from reality, I'm drowning in our stormy past. Bless me, bless me Send me to oblivion – I’m so tired. Let my soul just die, In the dead light of the black sun. I know a stronger feeling than hate, But this feeling is weaker than pain. And in this black and white and empty world, I'm just waiting for the tide to ebb On the deserted shore of this decaying island, That is washed by an ocean of long-thawed tears, Like a disembodied ghost – an eternal wanderer, Lost in the maze of the worlds he created. 5. Entombed in Grief I awake in a blank space. Nothing here but shattered dreams, And a canvas where I've painted, Our faces with the greyest ash. Empty skies surrounding me, Where clouds were once our bed. You awake in another place, Where you won’t remember my name. Frozen roses adorn my grave, With creeping thorns of hate. Though I wish I could be saved, I’ve already sealed my fate. Crucify me till I'm dead, Like another God, not mine. As curses circle ‘round my head, Sink your spear into my side. Nail me to your heart! Remember me, when I Resurrect in you, like The flower of your denial. Kill me when I emerge. Bury me in barren earth, Where the air hangs heavy, Like fog over a lake of tears. 6. The Elephant Man Remember, on the day he was born The world was shocked when they saw him The baby’s head was so deformed So pitiful, broken and sad Then time went by, years of no grace The child grew, and wise he became Son of man with an elephant face Prepares this world for the newest reign Won’t you tell me what happens in this place? Help to erase these illusions and lead me through this nightmare I stand alone at the door and I can’t see past all this darkness Oh, wise monster please tell me, I am waiting for your answers “I want you to know the things I can tell,” says the Elephant Man “I have so much to show, ‘tween Heaven and Hell, is where you’ll find me” “The place you should go, this place where I dwell, will explain everything” “But this space is unknown, this timeless domain,” said the Elephant Man His words were over, yet here I stand Nothing could I comprehend Then over the mountain, where we still were A blinding rift appeared from nowhere And then I asked, “What the hell is this?” His ugly face formed a smile, I guess I felt peaceful and went to sleep A newly awakened being 7. Nomoreus I remember all those first nights, When our hearts were still tender, When we began to love each other, When we vowed to be forever. But our words were like liquid, Which has drained away, And our vows were scorched, In a Sun of lies. Nomoreus! Nomoreus! There’s nothing left of us! I cross the ocean under black sails, My ship propelled by sorrow’s gale. It was dedicated to you, but Then I chose “Nomoreus” Nomoreus! Nomoreus! There’s nothing left of us! I’ve dashed this vessel upon the rocks, And the cold waters of loneliness, Have filled all my compartments. I'm sinking to the bottom… Oh, sweet abyss, you’ve swallowed me, Dragged me under your mighty waves. From now on I’ll be calm – I can drift away, After all, I'm so tired of being the captain. 8. The Withering of the Roses 9. The Night and the Dark Room Every night I weep I know you'll drift into eternal sleep Every single night I cry Knowing that soon you will die The night and the dark room Only me and the full moon Tormented every night “Everything will be all right” My beloved is deathly sick Her fate was an awful trick But she’s so far – I have no time “Everything will be just fine” Every night I weep I know you'll drift into eternal sleep Every single night I cry Knowing that soon you will die And we will never be together again… And we will never be together again… And we will never be together again… 10.
