1. Light Shines Black

At the side of the world I watch your painless face
It's a veil that covers all the falsehood that you carry
It is true, it is true that I've never been here before
Now, that's a lie, that's a lie that has been used before

All the shining light
they've hidden away inside
All the dying light
the light shines black inside

At side of the world I watch the painless ones
I am an insect waiting to be devoured
It is true, it is true that I never wrote these words before
Now, that's a lie that we reuse everytime we are alone

All the shining light
they've hidden away inside
All the dying light
the light shines black inside

2. Soiled Souls

Take this last wish that was never granted
I held it inside my heart
It hurts more than it ever did before
'Cause things aren't always what they seem to be
They never are...

New flesh for a soiled soul

Crawl with me in the dust
Dirty just for you, crawling just for you
Crawl with me in the dust
Dirty just for you, crawling for the
Soiled souls

I wish for this treasure to be discovered
The world becomes a shelter in the hole
It burns more than it ever did before
Things aren't always what they seem to be
The never are...

New flesh for a soiled soul

3. Missionary Man

оригинал: Eurythmics

Well I was born an original sinner.
I was born from original sin.
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin...

My mother told me good
My mother told me strong.
She said "be true to yourself
And you can't go wrong."
"But there's just one thing
That you must understand."
"You can fool with your brother –
But don't mess with a missionary man."

Don't mess with a missionary man.
Don't mess with a missionary man.

Well the missionary man
He's got God in his side.
He's got the saints and apostles
Backin' up from behind.
Black eyed looks from those Bible books.
He's a man with a mission
Got a serious mind.
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree.
The missionary man he was followin' me.
He said "stop what you're doing."
"Get down upon your knees."
"I've a message for you that you better believe."

Don't mess with a missionary man.
Don't mess with a missionary man.

4. Lucid Dream Desire

As I drift away through the bluish light
Your velvet touch it fondles me as I step inside
My universal sleep, once again it's calling me
I wait for the proper moment to venture into the dream

Drink from this fountain, built from a heart of stone
The waters pouring through it are the dreams
I walk along Drink from this fountain, built from a heart of stone
Lucid dream desire

Here I'm just a fragment of things that used to be
What is true might not be real when you step into my dream
I'm one without name among stars in your sky
I am just a fragment of things that never came to life

I dream forever more And my dreams shall forever be
Drink from this fountain, built from a heart of stone

The waters pouring through it are the dreams I walk along
Drink from this fountain, built from a heart of stone
Lucid dream desire

5. The Crooked Smile

I feel you slip right into me
Skin that sun ain't burned too much
Eyes, these emotional wounds
I was bound to lose

A day of crooked smiles
I'm the faithless one
On that day of crooked smiles
I?ll come back once more

The light of loving that you gave me
Lit from this moment of despair
This gift of grief that you gave me
I was bound to lose

A day of crooked smiles...

This is the final closure
This is my life
This is the final closure
A day of breaking has come

6. Raven Wings

I watched those raindrop tears
As they ran down your face
Your flowers be evil
Your vanity, black in grace

On raven wings, open up the night
Lighten up the moon
On raven wings, open up the clouds
And heaven cries with you until the end of time

Mirrored in the moonlight
Of the cold winternight
A marble smile on your lips
And that wicked gaze in your eyes

On raven wings, open up the night
Lighten up the moon
On raven wings, open up the clouds
And heaven cries with you until the end of time

7. Vision

Let me take you away, let me show you the way
To where you've never been, to a world between
Dance the light away in this passionate play
Through the forests so green of the green theory

Places I've seen, places I've been to
Places I've seen in my dreams

Our travel through times, the things that remind
How our past will be, what our future has seen

Places I've seen, places I've been to
Places I've seen in my dreams We fall with the rain

8. Persistence Of Memory

I stare upon the endless walls, your walls of steel
My eyes are tired, your name weights heavy in me
I hear my innervoice, it's calling for compassion
It's in the traces of a long forgotten generation

It's a temporary grace you wear
The persistence of my memories

I hear my innervoice, a voice filled with regret
The veil of virtue hangs deep around your neck

It's a temporary grace you wear
The persistence of my memories

I'm staring down
Your angels cry, they never fly
I'm staring down
And with the cry your angels die

It's a temporary grace you wear
The persistence of my memories

9. Heart Laid Bare

The love we share is infected
A passion bittersweet
Dissolving to the music
A romantic act of tragedy
Moan and sigh entwined
Pale and sick and tired
In violet light embedded
Flowers greet the death of the loving

There's a beauty never known before
In this beauty we're deformed and sore

See the pain of a heart laid bare
In the strain of a heart laid bare

Dream of death, presentiment
Under a tragic sky
I close my eyes and dream away
To another year in another time
Illusion veils the face
Sleepwalkeyes of the loving
Features in melancholy
Flowers greet the death of the loving

There's a beauty never known before
In this beauty we're deformed and sore

See the pain of a heart laid bare
In the strain of a heart laid bare

10. Orient Nights

This can't make me better, but at least I'm gonna try
Makes the bitterness come so much more alive
One-way ticket to a zone to take me away from this night
The insect crawled out and died in the light of a sun too bright

Your worn out face – The liquid anguish is brought
Your worn out face – I've seen them all before

Fading slowly, whispering souls
Wallowing deeper, swallowing souls

This can't make me better, but at least I'm gonna try
Makes the Orient night come so much more alive

Your worn out face – The liquid anguish is brought
Your worn out face – I've seen them all before

Sing to me your lullaby so sweet
Sing to me corrosive sleep

Fading slowly, whispering souls
Wallowing deeper, swallowing souls

11. A Road To Nowhere

This night be our last, still we're bound together
This night be our last, like a knife cutting it through
And it's flowing from you, gently weeps away
I take in little sips on this day of rain

On a road to nowhere, fragile as one can be
Trying to get to somewhere far away

A crimson shadow, one last stain I had to clean
The crimson shadow dissolves the dream
And it's flowing from you, gently weeps away
I take in little sips on this day of rain
As it cracks and leaves me bleeding

On a road to nowhere, fragile as one can be
Trying to get to somewhere far away
