Heaving, keep heaving, idle hands the devil’s workshop Dreaming, I’m dreaming, my heart in the highlands Leading, misleading, smoke and mirrors in the mirror Scheming and feeding, Satan gets the honey Hidden within the Hive - Hidden within the Hive It is time to wake up outside the hive Exposed and revealed, I am who I am The buzzing sounds no more, only silence remain High in the sky I see them, see-through wings that fly away... Curtains rise, stage goes dark Poke the nest like there’s no tomorrow Full house, red crescent star Hide your faith or hide yourself, there’s no exception Followed day and night after night they point and gawk at my swollen tongue so stung No drone can perform miracles and so my songs stay forever unsung Screaming, keep screaming, I have no mouth and I must scream Leaving, I’m leaving, to be or not to be Hidden within the hive - Hidden within the hive It is time to wake up, outside the hive Exposed and revealed, I am who I am The buzzing sounds no more, only silence remain High in the sky I see them, see-through wings that fly away...

Crack the whip, crack the old world Ships roll in, ships roll out, the commerce of genocide Around, around the middle passage A continent scrambled and chained, marked Protectorate Scourge of the triangular trade, maimed aboard the “Guineamen” Limbless! Let it rot, let it fester Ignore the pain, ignore the shame and bury it deep inside Where you are going it won't matter Hands aplenty cut off and piled, heads skewered sky-high The demigod of Stanley Falls, deep inside the “Heart of Darkness” Limbless! Monsieur Léon Rom, gallows and shackles when in Rome Only freedom – Flowerbed. Decapitation - phantom pain? Mutilate or Enslave? “The horror, the horror”

Easy prey, gentle eyes Made me bring back poison thoughts to the nest This world has gone straight to hell and we went with it Bitter birth, then bitter death and in between the punishment of life! The punishment of life! I’ll tie you a rope and you can hang yourself from your neck Flip this single coin, now that’s some riches, witch side to live? Cut of his tail before the serpent rear its ugly head I will forgive you, and at the far end of the sprawl I'll tie you a rope! Jittery so jittery the beasts await Dashing at first sight of blood and fear I’ll tie you a rope and you can hang yourself from your neck Another member to remember, out on the prowl Off with his head before the serpent slithers his tail I won’t forgive you and at the far end of the sprawl I'll tie you a rope! Habitat gluttony, habitual butchery Supply and demand for gore, greedy for more and more Gutted lands and entrails galore, craving for my stinking offal remains!

When will you ever feel at home, if you feel homeless in your head? Where are you supposed to go? Unable to believe in anything anymore Seeking truths where there are none Your words just lies, your lies just words Your mistakes, oh so well they reflect my life Walk with us, walk with me or stay behind Keep up now or you never will Where are you supposed to go? Storyteller, his words hollow through and through Storyteller, he is the one we would never follow anywhere All your memories were lost because you never slept deep enough Stay awake in frenzy, seeking truths where there are none Through the roaring silence a quiet whisper I heard A new tedious sign of things to come How dare you call yourself a fellow S.A.D Take these pills and be on your way Late, too late always too late They can't help you unless you DO IT, DO IT, DO IT! How hard can it be to do what you say and to say what you mean? Take these pills and be on your way Storyteller, his words hollow through and through Storyteller, he is the one we would never follow anywhere

Born in blood, squeezed out by tradition Nursed by ill will, fed rejection Lust for fire, maniacal research Ambient answers, draining Persistent memories Black moon medicine Beckoning silent ages A god’s grave unburrowed Found while terraforming A god’s grave unburrowed Worship our new habitat! Longing for a place, exist it does no longer Ruins and remains - Exhumed Through the smoke, spewing forth famine pillars of sickness and starless skies So many wounds! Come now, O holy heathen gods of flesh You speak life and I speak death Why did you abandon me, to rot in this vault of wax? Here is Arcadia, where I pluck the words of truth and lies Where I pluck the windfallen eyes… Why did you abandon me, to rot in this vault of wax? Here is Arcadia, where I pluck the words of truth and lies Where I pluck the windfallen eyes… So many tiny, tiny wounds! Come now, unholy heathen gods of flesh You speak life and I speak death

Ascend straight from Hell! Descend from the heavens like a comet Look upon what you have done, dear old Robert Oppenheimer Kali, Kala, death or time to face the great destroyer Most of us were silent, just two words were uttered: “It worked” We knew that the world would never be the same again, ever again Before my eyes A thousand suns Trimūrti Trinity splendor Kalachakra Saṃsāra, flinging the end of times Dharmachakra Saṃsāra, trident, to end all life Reinventing the wheel here and now, always All is one! Mushroom cloud rapture Glowing, ever-flowing atom jiva Look upon the king of snakes, he who set it all in motion Coiled around Mount Mandara amidst the Cosmic Ocean On a bed of naga, cradled by the churning sea Dreaming of a lotus, seeking immortality, poisoned to be Before my eyes A thousand suns Trimūrti Trinity splendor Kalachakra Saṃsāra, flinging the end of times Dharmachakra Saṃsāra, trident, to end all life Reinventing the wheel then and now, always All is one!

Oh, the earth cried as we cracked it open Animals devoured and gobbled, species after species Depleted our own brave new world completely, a barren orb left to show and tell A little too ambitious, we just don’t know when to stop The devastation that we brought Love might be the only way to move on and forgive To stop fearing what others hold dear in their lives Our only chance is walking together through the rubble and the decadence We’ll just have to wait and see who’s gonna live the longest Treeless, airless forests are now made out of chimneys Making wastelands is what we do, and we do it good If you’d reset it all and start all over we’d probably do it again Out of sight out of mind fo(u)r years Like vivid truths of a schizophrenic, playing with heatless fire Another ark for another time, beneath a steel sky Like walking dead on a lifeless planet, consumed and tossed away And all those moments will be lost in time just like, tears in rain… If you’d reset it all and start all over we’d probably do it again The devastation that we brought

Who do you dream of, when the night slowly shrouds your mind? Forced to stay wide awake hence this constant delirium Cure me, now please Horror visions, man-made famine No birds singing, no kids playing Family dinner, eat your own and pick your teeth with their bones! Holodomor A constellation of death Holodomor A display of decay Holodomor Hunger, lethargic “living” Nightmares of a promised land A whole region going mad All the symptoms of long-term hunger, lethargic “living” Holodomor A constellation of death Holodomor A display of decay Holodomor Hunger, lethargic “living” Nightmares of a promised land A whole region going mad All the symptoms of long-term hunger, lethargic “living” Awoke to a bellow from my empty belly Feels like the pulsating heartbeat of the void
