beneath my skin and bone
I hide a death drive
within my heart lies an
aspiration to nothingness
I search in vain for
the bottom of this chasm
I wander, looking for the end
in time, everything is lost
every memory fades like a dream
I am but a flicker of dim light
in the corner of
a blind man's clouded eye

Slow-motion Deathtrip
08:45
|

|
we are the walking dead
on a slow-motion deathtrip
our way is set before us
and we trudge on towards the end
the blind leading the blind
we set out strong and vigorous
but now we're worn down with
a heavy curse yoked upon our backs
we were formed all wrong
we were shaped all wrong
we were raised all wrong
we were knitted in the womb by God
only to be birthed into the hands of the devil

in the dead hours of the night
a host of nightmares
seep into my mind
like black ink poured from
the devil's hand
and I wake with a
gnawing terror in my gut
and a pall of dread covers me
like a deathshroud
an image of a vat of boiling oil
waiting for me at the end of
a dark corridor overwhelms me
I can already hear
my cries like shrieking wind
my throat is opened up like a grave
and blood rushes forth to meet the air
every limb is dismembered
stacked beside me like
fuel for furnace fires
as for the rest
cancer rises like a tide
washing over every living thing
a vast malignant wave of tumors
saturates the earth
a generation blind
cloaked in immense and impenetrable darkness
lost to its own senselessness
while hope is swallowed up
by the great swirling void of despair

The Narcissistic Wound
13:46
|
|||
|
the absence becomes the presence
the dead becomes the living
plagued by catastrophic fears
consumed by overwhelming dread
I am left without memory
I am left without desire
I seek relief, an exit
from this suffering and pain
the absence becomes the presence
the dead becomes the living
