Letterbomb
blame yourself, because you should have known better
when you checked your mail, and you read that letter
your luck ran out, your pride succumbed
to the sugar coating of that letterbomb
words that touch, and make you bleed
suffocate, embraced by greed
poor translations, far from home
innocence makes the world go round
Nigerian prince
can I help you in some way
I got the money
now I'll send it far away
he stripped you dry, down to your socks
with empty promises of rocks
you sought fortune, and you took the chance
now you send your savings to him in advance
Nigerian prince
can I help you in some way
I got the money
now I'll send it far away
Over Here
I know
this isn't real
I can't believe my eyes
but this is how I feel
fallen angel
thrown away its grace
a child of darkness
swallowed by the moon's embrace
creeping shadows
in the flickering light
twinkle twinkle
through this endless night
and in my room
I've put up all these walls
I focus on the problems
I never had at all
and over here
I wish I'd disappear
from the world outside
just leave it all behind
and all my fear
and all these missing tears
that hide inside
they'll just erase my mind
I know
the truth that is concealed
a cloud upon a clear red sky
the doors that hide the deal
artificial monster
that awakens from its cryostasis
leaving nothing in its wake
it torments only my disgraces
and over here
I wish I'd disappear
from the world outside
just leave it all behind
and all my fear
and all these missing tears
that hide inside
they'll just erase my mind
Still Water Depression
still water depression
in a pond of possibilities
stale grown relations
and stagnant mobility
a novel expression
a blossoming burrough
the hope of a warm breeze
and the spring of tomorrow
an obscured reflection
of my self imposed projections
an unhealthy obsession
with a lunar possession
sometimes when I'm feeling low
I drift along the undertow
flowing further down the stream
I indulge in my fruitless dreams
still water depression
on the verge of drying out
salted words, sweetened tears
without reason, beyond doubt
linear regression
pretty clear but quite unknown
instant gratification
living free inside your phone
an obscured reflection
of my self imposed projections
an unhealthy obsession
with a lunar possession
sometimes when I'm feeling low
I drift along the undertow
flowing further down the stream
I indulge in my fruitless dreams
still water depression
in a pond of possibilities
stale grown relations
and stagnant mobility
a novel expression
a blossoming burrough
the hope of a warm breeze
and the spring of tomorrow
sometimes when I'm feeling low
I drift along the undertow
flowing further down the stream
I indulge in my fruitless dreams
Supernova Suicide
...
The Moon Goddess Ascends
she's got problems of her own
she doesn't want to share
her sky is empty, there's no sun
although her chest lies bare
she's got no way of knowing
the origin of her pain
now her eyes are no longer glowing
and her soul has been left stained
she's not the only one
she's acting on her heart's desires
while living just for fun
she's worried that her heart's caught fire
she holds her breath and waits
she hopes that someone comes to save her
someone that relates
someone that can be her savior
focused on her own true feelings
she doesn't feel regret
while loneliness can be appealing
she won't ever forget
the thoughts that once consumed her mind
the fear of being left behind
the darkness growing deep inside her
and the truth that she must find
she's not the only one
she's acting on her heart's desires
while living just for fun
she's worried that her heart's caught fire
she holds her breath and waits
she hopes that someone comes to save her
someone that relates
someone she can call her savior
the night she reached out to the stars
the dream that used to seem so far
the steps she used to thread with ease
the moment of divine release
she's not the only one
she's acting on her heart's desires
while living just for fun
she's worried that her heart's caught fire
she holds her breath and waits
she hopes that someone comes to save her
someone that relates
someone she can call her savior
The Sun King's Ship
the sunken ship, beneath the surface
a relic of what used to be
ensnared within this great solution
a fragile droplet in the sea
the sun king's ship lies still before us
its luster gone, washed out in time
this shadow hiding in the moonlight
the gleaming hope that once was mine
do you
feel
blue, like we used to
and do you
expect that something will change without action
you preach of rebellion, yet savour the peace
while your body is ailing, you spread the disease
you slander your purpose, you sacrifice friends
still you try to go back on your words over and over again
the moonlit goddess has abandoned the sky
she has left all she knew, and is wondering why
all the birds have stopped singing, the trees dropped their leaves
why sun doesn't rise at the dawn of the eve
now the castle is empty, these dogs have no home
could you give us some shelter, could you spare us some bones
in this world where the people are ruled by the blind
could you give us some faith,
could you spare us some eyes
do you think
we could be free
from this strange
melancholy
do you think
something might change if I reach out and grab you
oh, how we tremble, afraid of the fear
or the warmth in my stomach whenever you're near
do you think we should change, do you think that we could
or has the sun king's ship now departed for good
The Trees Are On The March Again

Instant Fluff
I don't want to be just a piece among the rest
struggling for tomorrow, when I have no interest
I don't want to solve this puzzle, it will only bring me pain
I wish I could have a vacuum in the space where there's a brain
I don't want to be another sun among the stars
but am I still allowed to dream, if I have no dreams at all
if I go to sleep tomorrow, will I wake up yesterday
if I follow all the signs, can I still be led astray
do you feel meaning in life
you've been silently screaming, I know
now the twilight of evening is here
and the day has left you feeling so low
I don't want to be just a piece among the rest
but am I able to succeed without passing any tests
I don't want to spend my time washing off these bloody stains
living in an age where half the world has gone insane
I don't want to be another sun among the stars
asking for forgiveness once the joke has gone too far
passing out from work by the middle of the day
and then passing out again at home, I dream myself away
do you feel meaning in life
you've been silently screaming, I know
now the twilight of evening is here
and the day has left you feeling so low
Killer On The Loose
there's a killer on the loose
out on the streets
socializing
with the misfits and freaks
there's a killer on the loose
a drifter in the night
a terrifying presence
hidden in plain sight
there's a killer on the loose
and his coming to your house
lock all the doors
and turn off the lights
hide inside the closet
suppress your breath
when he comes into your room
the smell of death
Nave Espacial
...
So Is This Hell
so this is hell?
it's like a pineapple gone bad
I thought it'd be a scary place
but now it only makes me sad
at the shore of the distant morning
within grasp of the fleeting light
lucid dreams while the planet's warming
toxic fumes draw the shape of night
metal birds on a sky that's burning
breathing out as they leave in flight
it's the one eyed man returning
hidden deep and out of sight
from the sea where the tide is turning
tumbling down as you reach the top
lessons learned but soon forgotten
go to sleep without waking up
Locust
swarming over the fields
eating with no relief
starve your family
I'm the locust
cattle left to die
leaving none alive
paint a blood red sky
I'm the locust
spread your pesticide
run run run and hide
you can't hide from me
I'm the locust
I'm the locust
no one wants to play
no one dares to stay
they've all fled away
from my plague
heading for the sea
just like marching trees
killing viciously
I'm the locust
suffocating you
have your skin turn blue
nothing you can do
I'm the locust
don't need no one else
to repent my ways
I feel no regret
I'm the locust
I'm the locust
I'm the locust
I'm the locust
Happy

Alice
oh Alice, do you wanna know how I feel
I want to tell you how this moment is real
'cause I remember all the clothes that you wore
you might dislike it but I just can't ignore
but it's not like it seems
does anybody really know what all of this means
I try to turn but I am stuck in reverse
oh, how I wish I could just be someone else
someone who's not afraid to live by themselves
someone who gives you all the warmth you deserve
someone who loves you, from spring until fall
I want to be the one who touches your heart
I wish I could just take your troubles apart
if I could be the one to reach out to you
and all the criminals who roam around free
I'm staying silent so they don't bully me
cause greed, corruption is just making me blind
I have the image of you trapped in my mind
I'd like to wake up someday
take my bags, and just move away
I wonder if there's any hope left for me
In The Year Of The Rabbit
in the year following the rabbit
I continued on my quest
to drop out of old habits
stop preaching for the deaf
to get a real prescription
to finally make a sound
get rid of my addiction
get my feet back on the ground
I could use some medication
to clear the fungus in my head
and I'll risk mental castration
if it means leaving my bed
in the days of sanitation
with a water that tastes dead
I have been through hibernation
I think I'll stay awake instead
