Hourglass

Tear my skin apart
And rip my heart into pieces
Thrust your will unto my soul
I'm just another grain of sand
Kept in your hourglass
Kept in your hourglass
Kept in your hourglass
Crystal casket of fear
My breath is dull in here
The glass is melting from my side
But oh timekeeper, you feed the cold
It's so cold
Cold in your hourglass
Cold in your hourglass
Cold in your hourglass
As I run through your shivering hands
I slip through the coil between two worlds
Falling down unto your other side
My time is up once more
See you in time, see you in time, see you in time
See you in time
See you in time
See you in time
See you in time

Beg for mercy
Hold your breath for me
Beg for salvation
Trembling beauty
Let go of me
Wait for redemption
Enjoy your stay
You'll be mine today
Beg for salvation
Plead for cruelty
Give your skin to me
Feed me oblivion
Rain comes crashing down on your flesh to wash away
All we were, make us faceless, erase us, create us
Come taste my tears
Through ecstatic spheres
Come when I tell you to
Don't speak, don't ask
Void beneath this mask
Don't remind me who I am
Pain comes crashing down on your flesh to wash away
All we were, make us faceless, erase us, create us
I'm just as formless as are you
You won't remember my voice
Disposable identity
Rain comes crashing down on my flesh to wash away
All we were, make us nameless, erase us, create us
Erase us
Create us

The Key

I had found a place for her to shed her skin and let it run
The elixirs of ten thousand skies
She was but an architect folding labyrinths of flesh and clouds
All my colors shine in her eyes
I had found a place for her to shed her skin and sculpt a fire
Fueled by its contents, fragile perfection
In the center of the coil I'd placed the contours of her soul
Drenched in her substance, blessed by its light
Painting moons unto the hemispheres
Whisper spiral, whisper spiral
Carving masks from bottled memories
She's giving birth to herself
Decomposed and disconnected from all the voices I had joined
Forming a choir of lies and projections
Ritualizing self-destruction till she made me see the sun
Burning inside us, making us one
The elixir, 10.000 skies
All my colors shine in her eyes
And in her eyes I've placed the substance
That resonates in all of you who dare to cross the line and watch her
Painting moons unto the hemispheres
Whisper spiral, whisper spiral
Carving masks from bottled memories
I'm giving and giving
Painting moons unto the hemispheres
Whisper spiral, whisper spiral
Carving masks from bottled memories
She's giving birth to herself

I feel it calling me
I feel it pulling me deeper into your fear
Am I just a mirror to your unfulfilled desire?
Am I enough?
I can't trust myself
So you're scared, you're scaring me
I'm not worthy of this
I can barely hold myself together
I can't trust myself yet
Hang on love, why do I feel so
Constantly on the edge of
Losing you to your self-destruction?
And as well fall the impact point is you
And even though I'm dancing on open wounds
I feel like myself when you touch me
I feel like myself when you hold me
I can't trust myself
So I'm scared, I'm scaring you
I'm not worthy of this
I can barely hold myself together
I can't trust myself yet
Hold on star, why do I feel so
Constantly on the edge of
Losing myself to you?
To you
To you
To you
My love to you
My love, my life force
I can feel it calling me
I can feel it calling me

Fading
04:21
|

I found you
Torn into pieces
And I kept your shards
Floating through my skies
You were small
Yet ever so powerful
And you saw right through me
Falling through the coil
Those eyes watching it all fading
Those eyes watching it all fading
Those eyes watching it all fading
Those eyes watching it all fading

Blue

So I float through my skies
And collect tainted clouds
Stained with truths that turned lies
Suffocate from my doubts
So I drift through your seas
Feeling cold and displaced
For the surface starts to freeze
I hold on to your taste on my lips
So we run in circles
To protect each other
The air is getting thin
It's my turn to smother, be reborn
As quickly as I saw through you
My world slowly turns to blue
As quickly as I saw through you
My world slowly turns to blue
As quickly as I saw through you
My world slowly turns to blue

The Game

This skin is a playground
While this soul is a battlefield
When you inhale it's me you're breathing in
Breathing out
Open your eyes to see that maze of broken dreams
Let me inside, please make me feel
I need you to be as real as I can never be
Play with me
Play with me
Play with me
Play with me, please play with me
You choose the weapons, I build the game
Please play with me, don't believe your eyes
You choose the weapons, I'll wake you when it's over
Play with me
Play with me
Play with me

You lay next to me
And gently crossed the line
While I kissed my fears goodbye
To keep you safe for one night
Hear my heart
Singing to you with its warmth
With your warmth you reminded me
My soul is love
My voice is love
My face is love
My core is love
You lay in my arms
Embraced the ghosts I brought into your bed
While I touched the essence of your soul
With my love
I can't be the suffering anymore
I can't be the suffering anymore
I can't be the suffering anymore
Burn my shell of suffering
Cause you reminded me
My core is love
My core is love
My core is love
My core is love
My core is love
My core is love
My core is love
My core is love

Core

Reflections of our ever crossing paths
Blinding us both
Running through our veins
Breathing up our air
Still I cling to the origin
Nourishing my self-conception
Cherishing your vague reflection
Burned into my core
