[1] glee


[expand lyrics]
each moment passing by me
jeers its wicked smile of glee
yes, you may, help yourself
to verdict's venom 
is it heaven having freedom
nothing else?
fleeting life, a lone i 
while it takes, i fail to give
waiting to recognize 
no inscription
eulogy, just fiction

woe!
rue me!
i've seen it all before
gleefully ignored
imparity restored
i've seen it all before
 
eyes behold, even so the
answer lies unseen, ignored
cloudy film on my eyes
can't suspend
my disbelief
 
woe!
rue me!
i've seen it all before
gleefully ignored
imparity restored
i've seen it all before

when you tore out my heart
and you bore my child
who are you today?
who will you betray?
when you tore out my heart
and you bore my child
who are you today?
who will you betray?
 
swallow, don't you wallow now,
the bliss that mindfulness allows
the euphoria in me 
holier-than-thou!
wallow don't you swallow now
the bliss that idleness allows
phantasmagoria
in glee
for now
 
woe!
you, me!
i've seen it all before
gleefully ignored
imparity restored
i've seen it all, i've seen it all ...

[2] revel


[expand lyrics]
i undress these wounds  
salt indecent sores
affection, subjection
no pleasure deplored
empty appetite for appetence
in consequence hester sins 
 
i lay you down, down, down, down
your body bound, bound, bound, bound
sense of self stripped and occupied
revel, gilded appetite
 
endless trial 
by ordeal
this jury is guilty
but shamed into apathy
lady justice shouldn’t have worn that dress
monthly cruentation, lolita confess
 
i lay you down, down, down, down
your body bound, bound, bound, bound
sense of self stripped and occupied
revel, gilded appetite

and all these witches are burning
sentenced to sorrow by yearning
a pyre stacked high on desire
lecherous flames, ever higher
 
violate, voluptuary
carmen dies defiantly
 
i lay you down, down, down, down
your body bound, bound, bound, bound
sense of self stripped and occupied
taste of guilt, blunt appetite

[3] pathetic


[expand lyrics]
pathetic peripatetic 
pontificating peripety 
posttraumatic, pathogenic 
problematic periphery 

antithetic anaesthetic 
achromatic ambiguity 
approximation, annihilation 
apostrophizing autonomy 
  
all assonance seeks relevance 
beat, cause, beat, me 
beautiful perspicuity 
what will i see? 
 
why don't you stray? 
from ode and line 
will you re-write 
free verse of rhyme :||

infatuation, intoxication 
imposition, inability 
irrespective, invective 
ineffective intensity 

noncommitted navigation 
notwithstanding necessity 
noetic neurotic 
needy nobody 

all assonance seeks relevance
beat, cause, beat, me
beautiful perspicuity
what will i see? 
 
why don't you stray? 
from ode and line
will you re-write 
free verse of rhyme :||
 
written by the reader, thou 
shalt not break thy artful vow 
adulation of all construed 
control thyself with words imbued 
 
pathetic autonomy 
ineffective nobody 
problematic ambiguity 
imposed negativity 
 
why don't you stray? 
from ode and line 
will you re-write 
free verse of rhyme :||

[4] sorry


[expand lyrics]
you don’t seem to be 
what i need 
sorry 
so kindly step away 
and be 
sorry 
all you’ll ever be 
is copy 
feeling sorry 
you knew it all along 
 
i’m doing wrong 
i belong 
to the one 
who needs me 
i don’t need your sympathy 
apology for being wrong 
pardon me, i’m sorry 

so, degrade me 
for giving an easy fix 
you had none 
you were torn between the life you’d seen and you sought 
so you thought 
and still do 
indecision is a choice 

i’m doing wrong 
i belong 
to the one 
who needs me 
i don’t need your sympathy
apology for being wrong 
pardon me, i’m sorry
yes, i’m sorry
yes, i’m sorry
don't you mind, i'm sorry
yes, i’m sorry
yes, i’m sorry
don't you mind, i'm sorry

[5] tide


[expand lyrics]
die gier nach meer
der hunger auf fels
treibt das meer in das gestein
und zurück zu sich selbst
diese brandung ist mehr eine umrandung
von dem was geschieht
die tide hat sich in den wandel verliebt

die gier nach meer
der hunger auf fels
treibt das meer in das gestein
und zurück zu sich selbst
in einem endlosen freudentanz zerfällt
der schützende deich
nichts mehr, was die wogen hält
 
die gier nach meer
der hunger auf fels
treibt das meer in das gestein
und zurück zu sich selbst
ein salziges rinnsal beregnet einen spross 
über dessen triebe sich 
bislang nur milch und honig ergoss

dort wo die welle schlägt
und die küste widerstrebt
tragen tränen das letzte salz
dort wo die flut versinkt
und der große durst ertrinkt
atmen segeln den kalten wind
dort wo die welle schlägt
und die küste widerstrebt
wird horizont vom sturm verweht
 
die gier nach meer
der hunger auf fels
treibt das meer in das gestein
und zurück zu sich selbst
