On The Verge Of Darkening Lights


warming rays are shadowed by threatening clouds,
while hissing winds create the oddest sounds.
linked to the power and speed of a beam,
ion is cast to this strange and fake scene.

forced into an isolation, struggling for light;
ion rises to slowly take up the fight.
man's on the verge of darkening lights,
condemned to destruction's everlasting nights.

the memory of golden age's
heavenly powers slowly fades.
books of wisdom, highly honoured,
knowledges have long been smothered.





Point Of No Return


jubilation,
the dance and wine;
their screams and shouts,
once so divine.
rude and reckless
they turn the wheel
of fate and future,
though their view's concealed.
hesitation hinders
and takes its toll.
swaying and falling
with no control.

the avalanche
of no future
transcends into
aimlessness.
the foundation
of whole mankind
crumbles to a
point of no return.
hesitation hinders
and takes its toll.
swaying and falling
they lose control.

hesitation hinders
and takes its toll.
swaying and falling
they lose control.

mindless zoo of fools, a borderless, guideless mass.
they're amune to echoing signs,
thundering as in the past.
no one but theirselves as foes
to fight and handle with;
no one but theirselves in the way -

Mysterious Monolith


an awesome glow that shines through the sky
attracts me strongly like an obscure shrine.
strange magnetic object that i seek,
pulls me further up to its peak.

mysterious monolith, you hide the truth;
be my guiding light and be my proof.
tell your secrets, give me a sign;
disclose yourself, give me a sign.
mysterious monolith, you hide the truth;
be my guiding light and be my proof.
reveal all your treasuries;
give access to your memories.

there's no thought, unthought of;
there's no word, unspoken.
no wish, that hasn't been talked of;
there's no dream, undreamt of.
but still there is one question,
but still i see no future,
but still we hide in leisure
pretending we are pure.

you contain lights i dreamt of,
you hold the thoughts forgotten.
you clear up the skies
that seem dark and besotten.
you have the answer for
the meaning of our lives.
picture images
of an existence contrived.

we're lost in the labyrinths of
what seems to be and what is real. REAL
your old words of wisdom
though indistinct, still they are true. TRUE

mysterious monolith, you hide the truth;
be my guiding light and be my proof.





Queen Of The Night


my guiding star shows me the path
to gates of dawn that lie shining.
its signs and magic light lead me
through this labyrinth of darkness.

tempting me and enticing me -
the hour of examination has come.
i have come to crossing lights,
and one tries to blind me.

dark shadows try to lead astray;
shading and confusing me.
pulling at me with all their might,
they caress, and blind, and touch me.
pulling at me with all her might
the seductive queen of night calls.

choir:
escape the dark that hides and gives you a shelter and guard?
why confront sun's burning rays that will be your decline?
fate can't be questioned;
the cards have all been laid.
useless uprising.

surrender to the laws of man's nature,
turn back in time.
isn't the night the one that makes lifetime bearable.
play man's game
that eternally will be
useless uprising.

queen of the night don't poison me
with your scents that numb my mind and all betray.
won't give in to a reality
containing a being that doesn't satisfy..

fountains of light
will finally prove me right.





Sphinx


surpassed celestial gates of light,
i left the worldly spheres behind;
into atmospheres unknown
to the planet of silence.
ancient tales have told
of sphinx on his throne,
create an aura unique.
his superior mind ... doesn't need space or time.

pass through rooms of 'now' and 'past',
and leave the future way behind.
move through dimensions unexplained -
the palace of eternity.
wisdom's books i search
in these temples of sphinx.
pyramides of peace -
meaningless time ... no such thing as time.

quietly trace him slowly,
and finally i confront him.
he silently gazes with a piercing look;
i'm overpowered and struck by anxiety.
his charisma enlightens me,
his eyes tell tales i couldn't see.
sphinx is superior to my fate;
he motions me, though no word is said.
one last glance, he turns away, and spreads his wings.
slowly rising, soars up to the heights.
the brightest star yet seen comes into sight.

ancient tales have told
of sphinx on his throne,
create an aura unique.
his superior mind ... doesn't need space or time.





Carried By Cosmic Winds


i'm carried on by cosmic winds
like a grain of sand.
it seems as if some higher force
led me from the first.
but finally i feel like a part
of some larger plan;
i'm a piece of this puzzle that's
called the universe.

i still sense in urgency
to journey further on.
i have the notion that i've found
a start and not an end.
things i'll see and can't explain
will prove right or wrong;
and things i can't articulate
may well turn up again.

choir:
cosmic winds act as wings;
carry high - eternal rise.
cosmic winds act as wings;
carry high - eternal rise.
cosmic winds...

he who contains the light will see.
he who resists the queen will breathe.
he who asks will once be heard.
he who rests will be deceived.
