there is no life left in these hands no depth to these eyes this skin a plague nothing but blood to be moved angels spit on my face enoch it's true your voice is waste existence, a landscape of despair washed bone dry with apathy i lay on these shores and stare and alone i bleed leprously gnashing teeth a heart-pierced thorn of apathy where are you to wallow with us in misery? demons christen these thighs let us blanket in flies this exquisite pain must be shared by all alive breeder children taste me deep lap disease sickly sweet a precious gift in you my seed breeder descend into my shattered world all hopes they are ash in time engraved in these bones the end there is hell in this smile an inferno in these eyes existence, a landscape of despair washed bone dry with apathy i lay on these shores and stare and alone i bleed my skin your pain nothing no time but fate

your nectar stings my tongue its heat is dripping all over my blistered lips your scent has subtle shades of death and dulcimers that sing like butterflies the caterpillar spins its own extinction shed that skin like virgin's clothes spread those wings down where they grow kill that rose before it grows too far two more days until I go too far the silk cocoon oppresses you so you pierce it with your claws you hear the other insects rejoicing one and all they circle in a trance a shining light and chant over and over the sun is heaven and in this light we go to find our master fly, fly, fly fly, fly, little butterfly the fire that burns the brightest will turn your bones to sand the longer I am next to you the less I feel your hands against my skin thin, like fingers on my spine you shine for me like sun through ice I spread for you my wings of white and pink and gold and black as night you cannot look away fly, fly, fly fly, fly, little butterfly all is open in this light all is empty in this light everything is turning black crystal wings return to ash fly, fly, fly fly, fly, little butterfly
7.	Autumn 04:24	lyrics
the footsteps fade away the feelings disappear life and love grow old always winter's near as cold as the earth as silent as the snow she breathes once more then breathes no more
8.	Fall, Winter (Absolute Zero) 06:43	lyrics
the trees are all dead and their standing corpses rot their home became a graveyard of fallen leaves and frost a cold winter fell and they died one and all and when those branches break all the children will fall no footsteps on this ancient path through this spiritual wasteland deathly cold face down in the snow one more breath and your heart beats never again the wind licks the candles burning in the fallen leaves and the gray sky is a prophet of an uncureable disease can you feel the pull of winter's blackwomb grave and will you come fall down with me and be forever dead old soul falling through the skeleton of god this is where his brain was can you smell the love? frozen in place we fall into winter's empty embrace sommers gelbtraum durch grauen herbst vernichtet sich ein lied des wintertod singen wir für einen geist der immernachtische frühling all the children know that to love is divine a kiss of corruption from the dawn of time and like those trees we rot from inside if god is all love then all love should die
9.	Xi Auriel Kree (Dust and the Miserable Wind) 08:47	lyrics
eyes drip like glass mind as canvas muddy black from abuse pain crawls the ground smiles as if we'd never been ingest the remorse for being another smear crossed surface kick the easel numb she dark etched in mind rubbed crimson burns sometimes is forever life is a crime a splintered world echoes my thoughts finding itself dead with still so quiet the ice burns forged hot morality cleansed the acid judgment the rotten meat will die so pleased without the past i tear at my mind grinning mirror blinded no more eyes to cry and such we lie bloodied crust as we dwell beneath the earth a smile returns to her face as we writhe writhe and rot so thus the cycle drifts led by a chain broken rusted tendons pulse barely sighs smothered are the young minds in resonant tanks tar coats so thickly by dust the miserable wind

i cannot see beyond before me i cannot lick your pain it's just a little something i spit out like broken teeth on asphalt raindrops little bits of blood (i know it hurts you) every breath a curse all this time life slipped my mind gray the old skin green the new skin green the old skin gray the new skin i can see through time nothing ever changes i have seen your book of life all its empty pages and i can see you God through the fog of thought you gave me know that I'm still waiting but the hope is slowly fading away autumntide's unlocked gates I yearn for some escape through gray fateful guardians of unwashed ages there are so many ghosts here crying in my psychosphere wine-dark despair every time I look, you're never there i can see through time nothing ever changes I have seen your book of life all its empty pages and i can see you God through the fog of thought you gave me know that I'm still waiting but the hope is slowly fading away all this dying and rebirth Persephone, do you know how much it hurts?
