Ghost of ecstacy
will you let me breathe
Your air like ocean spray
how I long to taste you
restrict me
denied release
Violate me please
show me the dirt that I am
God save my queen
bestow me nature's halo
God save my king
Fill me up with your love
Build the pressure and give me delay
with simple flashes of the monster in youe eyes
smother my screams with silken lips
while you drag your nails in spirals down my spine
Ingite the fire
And set my night ablaze
God save my queen
bestow me nature's halo
God save my king
Fill me up with your love

The Ballad of Zon Kuthon
03:23

In your hospital bed
You cannot sleep, you cannot sleep
Looking out the window
at the ever pouring sleet
Now the colours change
your hate has turned it into purest red
now they're creeping in
the anger's food
for monsters in your head
One day now
When consumed, lividity
One day now
All you love destroyed by thee
One day now
As you burn they all will see
One day now...
Your wounds are stitched with wire
almost as rusty as your skin
so pale on the outside
but dark within, so deep within
the wire holds your mind together
when betrayed by those you love
but now that wire's snapped
and you have snapped
and hate is not enough
One day now
When consumed, lividity
One day now
All you love destroyed by thee
One day now
As you burn they all will see
One day now...
One day now
When consumed, lividity
One day now
All you love destroyed by thee
One day now
As you burn they all will see
One day now...

Tragic Opium
03:44
|

|
Your eyes relay the dreams
that kiss forbidden fruit
But the apple in your throat
medusa gaze like stone
and beckons to run
and run and run and run
touch and sing the carnal song
The sweet and tragic opium
for in the morning she is gone
Ambrosia hid behind the sun
the sweet and tragic opium
for in the morning he is gone
In the morning they are gone
Yesterday is laid to rest
beneath your silken breast
May tomorrow never come
Let the devil never see
the sins that we commit
lest we choose to run
and run and run and run
touch and sing the carnal song
The sweet and tragic opium
for in the morning she is gone
Ambrosia hid behind the sun
the sweet and tragic opium
for in the morning he is gone
In the morning they are gone

I Was Wrong

Heart give a moment
I perceive in a second delay
In a blind rage
In my mind cage
My blood feels as frozen
as the tears that are burning my face
If I concede for a second that everything you tell me is true
Then I'll forgive you with all of my heart
I will scream with repentance
I'll face the death sentence for you
I'll call you love
I'll call you
All this protection
It's quite Machiavellian babe
You're a right state
Jealous, Irate.
it must be a burden
if it's wiping the smile from your face
If I concede for a second that everything you tell me is true
Then I'll forgive you with all of my heart
I will scream with repentance
I'll face the death sentence for you
I'll call you love
I'll call you
If I concede for a second that everything you tell me is true
I'll gift you with all of my heart
I will scream with repentance
I'll face the death sentence for you
I'll call you love
I'll call you

Aokigahara

Beyond the crystal caves
In the shadow of the trees
There the others wait
don't join them in their sleep
but you've got to keep your dreams alive
your dreams of love
your dreams of light
but you've got to keep your dreams alive
Your dream's enough
your dreams of life
Nothing shall remain
So silently you'll swing
in haunting, lost in haze
in the mystic music, sing.
but you've got to keep your dreams alive
your dreams of love
your dreams of light
but you've got to keep your dreams alive
Your dream's enough
your dreams of life
but you've got to keep your dreams alive
your dreams of love
your dreams of light
but you've got to keep your dreams alive
Your dream's enough
your dreams of life
