Welcome to my oblivion
Welcome to my ordeal
If you think it’s just a tragedy
It’s my destiny
I bring all the colours
With my rise
Your rise is condemned
By the trees and their leaves
That already fell
Fell to rise again
With all flowers
Flowers that are already rotten
In my feet
In my needs
Nevermore For evermore
Now I understand
All the grey in your eyes
World needs
To feel the joy of living
It’s my turn
Wind may blow again
If you could feel
All my last thousand dreams
You would see all the pain
Of those who left
I can feel
Your last thousand dreams
So I can see
Their lives in you
I’ve kept the secrets of the night
And spread your crimes all over lives
God is crying out for me
And you die!
You chose your path among my flaws
In each color exists a scar
That is bleeding in me for evermore
I’m aware of your disguise!
I just make them
Dry up all their tears
Turned into stones
By your moaning breeze
So when you shall
Whisper again
There’ll be hope for all

The river that carries my loss
Is louder than your cross
To dance with fire in the sky
Each silent scream I moan
Is a passing stream in my roar
To dance with fire
To dance with
She danced with fire
She danced with me
But I was drawn in my tears
To dance with fire in the sky
She danced with fire
She danced with me
But I was drawn in my tears
To dance with fire
To dance with
Now, every love hidden in your face
Was taken by this stream disgrace
So, it is a fever that is kept in the lake of my eyes
Silent dreams
Fade away
They are flowing through my lake
Sins became
An only comfort
They are where my dreams will settle on
The river…
All the passion is going through and out my eyes…
All my sins and lies…
I can’t be taken away
From the way you have turned to
You say no more
And I just go into my tears
The dreams you have lost
Are not all of your fears
The dreams you have lost
Are not all of your fears

You did mouth all my grief and needs
When your hips crashed into me
I eye now better than I did
Under your feet my pleas are faded out
So hold me tighter
It’s all I need
So hold me tighter
Help me to be
You did hand all my screams and dreams
And sucked out every human sin
From the truth you have kept me far
And I’m now nothing but yours
You allow me to die
When your heart
Turned to stone
I’m the drug in the blood that flows in your vain
And you just ask for more
And I make fun of your fall while you’re insane
Against your fate
You can fight
Pretending that are swords
My bones
And that’s not the way
You hold me
It’s just the way
You beg for my help
I’m the drug in the blood that flows in your vain
And you just ask for more
And I make fun of your fall while you’re insane
Against your fate
You can fight
Pretending that are swords
My bones
And there’s love even when there’s
Lust incrusted in your skin
And I make you beg
And there’s no way out
The more I get
The more I want
You gave me your sympathy
But now I long for more…
So hold me tighter
It’s all I need
So hold me tighter
Help me to be

The Bringer of Light

Conflicts of feelings
Compelled me to come and find out
Who’s the owner of this inconstancy
The one who brought me down
I brought the light
You made me fall
You feared me
You cut my flight
Now's my rebirth
And I understand
My love for you
My father of pain
For each step of yours
There is a different ground
For each note you play
A different sound
You must
Be one of them
Who brought
Chaos and pain
It does not
Matter what I do
Nothing
Will be enough [for you]
[They] followed me
‘Couse light blinded them
Without me
Your creation
Would be
Too perfect
And unreal
Without flaws
I bring all the pain
That is necessary
Cutting life from the begining
Laughing with humanity
I am the water
Of the seed of hate
I bring wrath and pain
To the souls that were pure once
And you will ask me
why
Why?
Why
You don't understan my burden (cry)
My path of wounds in your hands
I bless the thorns in your crown (cry)
I have my burdens too
And I still cry for you
Sorrow and hate make me strong
Don't cry for me, I’ve chosen this way
Heavier than that cross of wood
Is to kill all your beliefs
My hate, sorrow and doubt
See all those things
Reflected on you
I lie awake on this sky
Waiting for those screams of wrath
Feeding all again and come
Satisfaction and
Cry
Conflicts of feelings
Compelled me to come and find out
Who’s the owner of this inconstancy
The one who brought me down
I brought the light
You made me fall
You feared me
You cut my flight
Now's my rebirth
And I understand
My love for you
My father of pain
What am I
Supposed to say
To those
Who may complain
It does not
Matter what I do
Nothing
Will justify [you]
Pain is
[The] way to Heaven
Without
Evil your sons
Would not
Be complete
To be human
Is to have the choice
No light without darkness
No peace without war
What is love without hate
To show you what you have lost again?
I've become the shadow
I am the unborn
I am the emptiness that make your
God cry and then create all life

Empire on Fire
04:34

I ‘ve sold my heart
For stones
Just to overcome
What I fear
What I really hate
There is no way to live
Except being a crowned clumsy clown
So I got within my sins
Not to become so dumb
I have built my walls with fire
I’d rather live in my hell
I’m a king of an empire
I’ve made with my own hands
(No land, no crown, no queen)
I have built my walls with fire
So when this kingdom fall
I’m a king of an empire
I’ll make myself the queen
(No land, no crown, no queen)
There is no way to live
Except being a crowned clumsy clown
I’m a king of an empire
In a reign of none
And I figure out a fear
But a fear that will never turn to faith
I’ve built my ruins to dream
Not to become undone
There is no life
There is no time
In my dreams
Forever
I’ve decided not to live
So you should never
Lay down ON my thorns
Because you have to
In life we fear
[death
And in death we fear to live
Lost in a no return way
We stuck as everything dies
Fly away from me
I’ve got these chains attaching me to my own safety
You know who I am…
Fly away from me
Fly even when it seems the best just to wait?
You know who I am…
I bought my heart
For stones
Just to overcome
What I fear
What I really hate
There is no way to live
Despite being a crowned clumsy clown
So I got within my sins
Not to become so dumb
I have built my walls with fire
I’d rather live in my hell
I’m a king of an empire
I’ve made with my own hands
(No land, no crown, no queen)
I have built my walls with fire
So when this kingdom falls
I’m a king of an empire
I’ll make myself the queen
(No land, no crown, no queen)
My own queen
And I’ll never ever have to stand the fear (of another dream)
And I’ll never ever have to stand the dream (of another fear)
And I’ll never ever have to ask myself where I have lost myself
I have built my walls with fire
I’d rather live in my hell
I’m a king of an empire
I’ve made with my own hands
(No land, no crown, no queen)
I have built my walls with fire
‘Couse when this kingdom falls
I’m a king of an empire
I’ll fall in my disgrace
(No land, no crown, no queen)

Timeless

Means and matters lead us to death since the day we’re born
We plead we beg not but life is our last dying hope
We have our lifetime plans
Saving tears for another time, another chance
We keep our lies
In hope we can breathe as long as we still pray
Your time now has gone
We give too much
No praying for your God
Time for lies
Just dress your grief and lie upon me
Your path I have done
The years are gone
Since your hope was born
Our dreams undone
Just be on knees and die for me
No tomorrow for each of our days
We keep our lies
In hope we can breathe as they cover our graves
Your time now has gone
We give too much
No praying for your God
Time for lies
Just dress your grief and lie upon me
Your path I have done
The years are gone
Since your hope was born
Our dreams undone
Just be on knees and die for me
Your time is a lie
Each second you have spent
Is a step toward my arms
We will never live all our dreams and our hopes
We will never live long enough
You must never dream as long as I’m in your life
If a hope you need for a lie you can’t die
Hitherto you’ve lived thinking of being the one
But the truth is that you are a fool your past is mine
Your time now has gone
We give too much
No praying for your God
Time for lies
Just dress your grief and lie upon me
Your path I have done
The years are gone
Since your hope was born
Our dreams undone
Just be on knees and die for me
Your life, your god, your light are slightly dying
I, death, can burn every everlasting hope
Every everlasting crime

Tree of Lies

Fall your way
Which way?
Across the stars
Once I can’t reach the stars
Bleeding in me
You’ve chosen my fate
Your way is on dust
And I can’t go too far
As a flower caught in a spring's morning
I'll take your young life away
Oh, why?
All this regret is shallowness
Live now in this garden of beauty
Fall your way
Which way?
Across the stars
If I can’t reach the stars
Bleeding in me
You’ve chosen my fate
Your way is on dust
And I can’t go too far
Is it what they call winter’s dawn?
[I] see no light
[I] feel no strengh
Left in pain
Just like the end of a spring’s day
When we know only darkness
And coldness will remain
All your grief will not
Touch my pith (new creation)
I'm the tree of life
And I decide when
Leaves will fall on ground
To rotten again (new creation)
And their tears water me
And I can grow up
I’m just another
miserable being in your life
Without my strengh
[I] can not even cry
How would I serve you?
How would I try?
Just one word would be enough for me
To understand why
And the flowers that
are the most beautiful
I take to myself of
My private garden
Lament and colors
Dreaming when one of
You will give me the seed
To make me company
You’ve taken my life away
Just to satisfy your needs
But your wishes may fail
Once they were born from greed
Drown in your own sanity
There’s the result you’ll find
You’ll have a vast bloomy garden
Without any life

For the love of a god
In your eyes…
Your deformed lips need
All the bread and wine
I’ve got inside my mind
Your deformed creeds need
Every faith hidden in my lipless smile
Your deformed lips need…
Your deformed lips need every merciful kiss…
Damped wings by the salt of your tears…
Wings damped by the salt of your tears…
Garras que ferem o ventre
Como o vento
Levam sua alma
Insana é a prole estéril
Pois bendita é a chaga
Da fertilidade
Asas que cobrem a vulva
Na turva existência disforme
Como um homem
Que se nega a vida
É a vergonha com gosto de morte
Serene voices that hide a crown secret
I follow my own tragedy
By a stony way
When the moon lights
When the moon lights my eyes
When a god touched deeply your heart…
While your face was broken by a barren smile…
They wish my sweet revenge
And I cry out for this devil’s womb
Ghosts who overfly the envy/sky
And the forgiveness
Damned angels
Whose phlegm
Covered a god’s face
I fall down on my knees upon
Diamonds of mine
I’m a king/ queen of a sick world
I’ve been lifting up to see
Into an everlasting dawn
Creatures
That suck the sweet…
The sweetness in my feet
Wings
The overcast
My fate
They feed my immortal
chest of pain
