Shadow and Dust I listened to the whispering winds I heard the scorching sands For aeons now – or so it seems I still hear it in my dreams Long enough I could only feel Desperation, despair and solitude For my only companions were The sun and the stars – sand and dust Of this eternal vast desert ‘Thirst’ – my inner self cried ‘Shadow’ – my red-burned skin craved And so I thought –again– of dying Just lying down and closing my eyes Ah, I even tried When all hope for saviour was forlorn But no, I can not die In a place like this – shadow less Far beyond my Desperation, despair and solitude I have a dream I have a quest I have a mission Yet to accomplish So I crawled… Until I found what I sought Shadow and water Another rebirth of life… for me

Death’s Design From the womb – a first scream From the cradle – a long time, a lifetime Brief moments of joy, mostly bereft Ever focused on my sole goal My one mission, my only plan For I am my life’s architect Ever searching for a place A most special design: An aesthetic dream A cathedral of gold Unimaginably high In a forest, vast and old Drawn I am This mystical place exists! I knew it right from the start... My very own past (lies in) The first pulse of my heart Drawn I am This mystical place exists And awaits my arrival Amidst the moon and stars and mist Now my search is over (I have arrived) The completion of my master plan A deception at least I hear it clearly now... Voices seducing me in the dark... “O, come here and die!” The dire melody of my life “O, come here and die!”

Perfume of the Flesh Visions have haunted me Cries in my subconscience Salty tears on my pillow Blood marks on my aging body, every morning again. From now on, I'll sleep quietly at night My glorious masterwork finished My own Tower of Babylon, Reaching high, standing strong Hundreds of lives have melted Into one heaven reaching spear Seas of naked flesh, carefully selected and defiled Used for one single purpose The completion of true perfection, The citadel in my head My lifework will open its gates for me And call me master For I am the one, the only one, To live in this organic cathedral At last, my dreams and I will sleep in harmony My neurotic lifelong vision became reality!

Crimson Cathedral This dawn, this loathsome dawn Another nightmare afterbirth Bleeding scars and fresh wounds I dreamed the dreams of a thousand deaths The building parts and fundaments Of this tower of flesh My lifework hasn't finished yet A last piece must be placed on top Of this cathedral of my dreams My dark blood-craving visions will end With me at the top Where I shall be one With the darkness of night And the light at the end My pulse will coalesce With the crimson lifestream Of my eternal organic kingdom Thousands of lives united In my cathedral of might My ark of the apocalypse My life ends as I sacrifice My flesh and blood: the final piece A super conscience will last A new time is at hand For this tower of my hands...
