Shaped By Darkness

The crystal skull I wear protects that door right behind my eyes

A passage to a better self I can walk through

Carrying all the tears I can fill my hands with

I crawl my way to that deep silence I fill with thoughts

I crawl my way to that deep silence I fill with thoughts

In there hundreds of brick towers hold a tender sky together

A gold path rolls within electric bundles of feelings buzz around

Amniotic fields lie on raw flesh hills

Clouds of minor notes rumble

There's a liquid spot in every mirror

There's a point of distortion in every imaage

There's a piercing truth in each lie

Here I shut down my double self

And I let my real voice resonate low deep, low deep, low deep,

In a state of altered awareness

And I let my real voice resonate low deep, low deep, low deep,

My shelter is a shutdown theatre made of bones

I sit on the border of a black stage

Spiderwebs caress my breath

Dust takes the shape of a ghostly crowd

Entertained while I play my guts

Like cello strings

A whirl of bones generates from the ceiling above

In twisting symbiosis with my mute dying chant

The crystal skull I wear protects that door right behind my eyes

A passage to a better self I can walk through

Carrying all the tears I can fill my hands with

The more I dismember the bigger the pearl cage gets

But my aura overcomes it spreading wide like angel's wings

An ovation celebrates my lethal performance

While exhaling what is left of me

I smile at the crowd and collapsing buildings

Protected by my same death march

I keep the music going

And when life will call back

I'll promise to escape it tomorrow again.

And when life will call back

I'll promise to escape it tomorrow again.
