Maw!
There is a two-faced predator in our midst
It’s gonna swallow you whole
With keys for teeth
Unlocking the cage one bite at a time
Snarling domain, circling the drain
This is a place where the air could be cut with a knife
Warden by day, chiselling away at your convalescence
CHOMP!
Therein, a slurping polycephalic beast
And it’s chomping away
With blades for fangs
Thrashing in its cage which bars do not break
Soon on the loose, long in the tooth
Antediluvian appetite whetted and fraught
Warden by night, prey of the plight as
The gates flung open - Yes!
Always and never, ambiguous endeavour
Can you chain the latter, ‘fore the great hereafter? – No!
Castles in the sky – Let’s light them up
Head high in the clouds - Now, for a breath I tarry
You’re making waves – While you dream your bad dreams
A rest in shambles – Hence the madness awakes
Huffing and puffing and tumbling and tangling – Down!
Huffing and puffing and tumbling and tangling…
Jaws of Janus ate the one who carved the cage!
Castles in the sky – Let’s light them up
Head high in the clouds – Now, for a breath I tarry

Dungeon

Once again, I
Delve into the apathy that I have designed
Emptiness settles beside me and I smile
Space and time dissolves with my sanity
In this world where I’m forgotten - I see my hopes and my dreams
Keeping my memories as prisoners
In the dungeon!
I enjoy the sweet release from my sweet ecstasy
To indulge in lethargy and to lament
Apparitions in my head are purged through bloodletting
I have no strength left to bear the weight of my being
Coup de grâce, finis ma vie!
Once again, I
Simmer through the segments of a damaged mind
To re-invent the horrors of a spectral cage
Just enough to keep them alive
In this world where I’m forgotten - I see my hopes and my dreams
Keeping my memories as prisoners
In the dungeon!

Sculptor

In the abyss I found a core, and proclaimed my possession
It filled me with joy and sweet completeness, evocating love
Cunning and bold, I tread the path never seen
The road to transcendence seems divine, but not revealed to all
Here I was led years ago, by tales and by rumors
Even at night it illuminates like smoldering embers
In the abyss I found a core, and proclaimed my possession
It filled me with joy and sweet completeness, evocating love
Astral maps are leading me, unforgotten I will be
All the stars are swept away, iconoclastic disarray
Alas, my hunger deceived me, self-consuming treachery
The night grows darker and the embers are scorching my flesh
Who is still here, am I myself, or am I my Sculptor?
My mind deformed, like clay re-sculpted, docile and numb
Never a sound, can I recall, worse than I heard
As I saw my bones rearranged to crude figurines
Astral maps are leading me, unforgotten I will be
All the stars are swept away, iconoclastic disarray
