1.
Illusions of the witness Alone in the certain absence Craving for the darkness Completion under misty silence Irritating beauty Never need appreciation Ravishing emotions Devotion without condemnation Like petals in the storm Burning through the wind of cleansing No escape from the lust Leave behind the time of wanting Like petals in the storm Burning through the wind of cleansing The reckoning is delayed Embittered in the everlasting Regardless of the distance Secrecy of heartfelt bluster Surrounded by the untold Promise of the silken luster Overshadowed unease Reach the end of contemplation Losing bonds in splinters Never know the incantation
2.
Spirals down from the ages Of the heartless nothingness Tending back to the torture With a silent caress Lasted in the obsession Blaming life for the falling Victory over glory Calling into being Victory over glory Bringing down with the trust The wonder’s sometimes stronger Returning to the dust Victory over glory No more words for the fight Sinking into objection After pain and delight
3.
Silver Light 03:27
Made of silence, made of fog Made of whisper, made of mud Our copemate is the emptiness Buried in the silver chest All are under way to light Marching in the golden night Suffer from the sweet disgrace Unify at any place Silver light Comprehend the empty phrase Denial of the awkward praise In the end what can remain Stand alone in dreadful rain No one has to pay the price Obviate the mend at twice Always broken by the law Holding on to every straw
4.
Four days of winter Four days of shiny snow Sages in silence Growing up from below Humbling destruction Tempted man barely prays Gentle submission Yearning for easy ways Sinking in the substance Salvage sternly like the crimson Sinking in the substance Strife against the holy wisdom Sinking in the substance Salvage sternly like the crimson Sinking in the substance Ignorance against the reason Rootless perfection Unwanted, so to say No ways to stay calm After the grey decay Restless misfortune Bring back the gloomy trust Face down in question No one can hide from lust
5.
In the embarrassing fields Vanity strikes through the fear In the embarrassing fields Dreadful sounds in the ear Misery takes the moment In the embarrassing fields Reverie breaks the moment In the embarrassing fields Domination in the creation Confidence in explanation Domination in the creation In the creation, hesitation In the embarrassing fields Dignity over belief In the embarrassing fields Happily lost in the grief Lenient hopes for the moment In the embarrassing fields Innocent fight for the moment In the embarrassing fields
6.
In front of the shadow Under the courage Look through the anger Your fall is the message Dip in the substance And take back the gain The mission is empty You clamber in vain In front of the shadow Your fall is the message In front of the shadow Your fall is the message In front of the shadow Beware of the sign The storm won’t last always Stand back to the line In front of the sorrow In front of the grief The passion is over Regretting belief In front of the shadow Your fall is the message In front of the shadow Your fall is the message
