This Dying Soul: Part 5 Release

13-02-2006

Come to me my friend (Listen to me)
I'll help this torture end (Help to set me free)
Let your ego go (I can't carry this load)
You can't go through this alone (I feel so hopeless and exposed)
You'll find your peace of mind (Give me some direction)
You can no longer hide (Break out of this isolation)
Let humility (Openness, honesty)
And become what you can be (A healing tranquility)

Help me
Save me
Heal me
I can't break out of this prison all alone

These tormenting ghosts of yesterday
Will vanish when exposed
You can't hold onto your secrets
They'll only send you back alone

Your fearless admissions
Will help expel your destructive obsessions
With my help I know you can
Be at one with God and man

Hear me
Believe me
Take me
I'm ready to break right through this prison wall

This Dying Soul: Pt 4 Reflections Of Reality

11-02-2006

Hello, Mirror - so glad to see you my friend, it's been a while
Searching, Fearless - where do I begin to heal this wound of self-denial

Face yourself man!
Brace yourself and trace your hell back

You've been blinded, living lie a one way cold existence all the while
Now it's time to stare the problem right between the eyes you long lost child

I wanna feel your body breaking
Wanna feel your body breaking and shaking and left in the cold
I want to heal your conscience making a change o fix this dying soul

Born into this world a broken home
Surrounded by love yet all alone
Forced into a life that's split in two
A mother and a father both pulling you

Then you had to deal with loss and death
Everybody thinking they know best
Coping with this shit at such an age
Can only fill a kid with pain and rage

Family disease pumped through your blood
Never had the chance you thought you could
Running all the while with no escape
Turning all that pain in to blame and hate

Living on your own by twenty one
Not a single care and having fun
Consuming all the life in front of you
Burning out the fuse and smoking the residue

Possessive obsessions selfish childish games
Vengeful resentments
Passing all the blame
Living out a life of decadence
Acing without thought of consequence
Spreading all your lies from coast to coast
While spitting on the ones that matter most

Running power mad with no control
Fighting for the credit they once stole
No one can ever tell you what to do
Ruling other's lives while the can't stand the thought of you

A living reflection seen from miles away
A hopeless affliction having run astray

I wanna feel your body breaking
Wanna feel your body breaking and shaking and left in the cold
I want to heal your conscience making a change o fix this dying soul

Now that you can see all you have done
It's time to take that step into the kingdom
All your sins will only make you strong
And help you break right through the prison wall

The Glass Prison: Pt3 Revelation

10-02-2006

Way off in the distance I saw a door
I tried to open
I tried forcing with all of my will and still
The door wouldn't open

Unable to trust in my faith
I turned and walked away
I looked around, felt a chill in the air
Took my will and turned it over

The glass prison which once held me is now gone
A long lost fortress
Armed only with liberty
And the key of my willingness

Fell down on my knees and prayed
"Thy will be done"
I turned around, saw a light shining through
The door was wide open

The Glass Prison: Pt2 Restoration

08-02-2006

Run - fast from the wreckage of the past
A shattered glass prison wall behind me
Fight - past walking through the ashes
A distant oasis before me

Cry - desperate crawling on my knees
Begging God to please stop the insanity
Help me - I'm trying to believe
Stop wallowing in my own self pity

"We've been waiting for you my friend
The writing's been on the wall
All it takes is a little faith
You know you're the same as us all"

Help me - I can't break out this prison all alone
Save me - I'm drowning and I'm hopeless on my own
Heal me - I can't restore my sanity alone

Enter the door
Desperate
Fighting no more
Help me restore
To my sanity
At this temple of hope

I need to learn
Teach me how
Sorrow to burn
Help me return
To humanity
I'll be fearless and thorough
To enter this temple of hope

Believe
Transcend the pain
Living the life
Humility
Opened my eyes
This new odyssey
Of rigorous honesty

Serenity
I never knew
Soundness of mind
Helped me to find
Courage to change
All the things that I can

"We'll help you perform this miracle
But you must set your past free
You dug the hole, but you can't bury your sole
Open your mind and you'll see"

Help me - I can't break out this prison all alone
Save me - I'm drowning and I'm hopeless on my own
Heal me - I can't restore my sanity alone

The Glass Prison: Pt 1 Reflection

07-02-2006

Cunning, Baffling, Powerful
Been beaten to a pulp
Vigorous, Irresistable
Sick and tired and laid low
Dominating, Invincible
Black-out, loss of control
Overwhelming, Unquenchable
I'm powerless, have to let go

I can't escape it
It leaves me frail and worn
Can no longer take it
Senses tattered and torn

Hopeless surrender
Obsession's got me beat
Losing the will to live
Admitting complete defeat

Fatal Descent
Spinning around
I've gone too far
To turn back round

Desperate attempt
Stop the progression
At any length
Lift this obsession

Crawling to my glass prison
A place where no one knows
My secret lonely world begins

So much safer here
A place where I can go
To forget about my daily sins

Life here in my glass prison
A place I once called home
Fall in nocturnal bliss again

Chasing a long lost friend
I no longer can control
Just waiting for this hopelessness to end

Slow Down

14-11-2006

Let it be
Still my anger
Bring me peace
From my temper

I'm trying every way I can
I'm doing wrong I understand

Let it be - slow down - watch the pressure fall
Bring me peace - slow down - I can't have it, I can't have it all.

Break the strain
Feed my hunger
Tell my mind
To be stonger

I've got to move and make it real
I've got to make myself a deal

Break this strain - slow down - give up what I crave
Tell my mind - slow down - watch what I can, watch what I can save.

Will I rise
Out of shadow
Staying calm
Felling hollow

I'm here to give me one more chance
That choice is resting in my hands, yeah...

Let it be - slow down - watch the pressure fall
Bring me peace - slow down - I can't have it, I can't have it all.

Break this strain - slow down - give up what I crave
Tell my mind - slow down - watch what I can, watch what I can save.

Bem, serve isto para dizer que vou ter que reduzir o ritmo em relação às actividades no DA, no que respeita a comentários e quem sabe Journals (O Wise Man já se queixou de eu o estar sempre a chatear). Esta última semana foi demasiadamente esgotante e com muitas coisas em cima de mim, tenho que fazer cortes (é a crise, neste caso de tempo e energias). Não é o caso daquelas declarações em que se diz que se vai embora e afinal não vou e depois até vou, mas depois não me apetece porque sim e depois quero ir porque não, para depois eventualmente voltar (ou não). Continuo aqui, junto de todas as pessoas de quem aprecio os trabalhos e de quem aprecia os meus. Apenas não vou comentar tanto. Mas podem continuar a contar com os furacões de favoritos nas vossas galerias! Ando a trabalhar em mais textos (porque a cabeça não pára, até durante a noite - é por isso que me esgoto facilmente) e apenas preciso de tempo para os trabalhar e também preciso me dedicar mais tempo à música (nas duas vertentes).

On With The Show

11-01-2006

The Wise Man said to me:

"Your life is the greates show of all. Do not let anyone else direct it"

Oi, Tudo Bem?

10-01-2006

- Oi, tudo bem?
- Tudo Bem...

...Fora o tédio que me consome,
todas as 24 horas do dia,
fora a decepção de ontem a decepção de hoje,
e a desesperança crônica no amanhã,
tenho vontade de chorar,
raiva do poder,
quero gritar até ficar rouco,
quero gritar até ficar louco,
isso sem contar com a ânsia de vômito,
reação a tal pergunta idiota

...fora tudo isso, tudo bem.

The Wise Man said to me:

"Don't try to fool yourself because you'll always be the last to know"

Each Day

07-01-2006

Each day I have another choice too
To try and make things right
I awake from the nightmare
Another day closer to the grave
With a personal affair
And my fright is in moderation
It just might be the death of me
I am aware

I'm not worried about tomorrow
Don't give a fuck about yesterday
To get through this day of sorrow
I must face what comes my way (each day)

Each day I need some kind of release
To pull the trigger on my soul and
Breathe through the bullet hole

I need some peace
Before I am deceased
I want to see my world in its
Negative state became a positive
Place my unleashing all the hate within

I'm not worried about tomorrow
Don't give a fuck about yesterday
To get through this day of sorrow
I must face what comes my way (each day)

The Wise Man said to me:

"Hesitations leads to devastation"

Matricide

04-01-2006

Hear our Mother crying in silent tears
For she can't speak, she only cries She cries to me
Draw the final curtain, for senseless thoughts
And senseless hands have shaped the future
Is it not what you thought would come?
Or maybe people no longer care for Mother Earth

Earth Mother is screaming, we can't live without her
No time left for dreaming here, she knows
Have we forgot our future?
Earth Mother, life giver, we can't live without her
So foolish, men who say they don't care
They'll be gone anyway

Feel our
Mother nurture, for we are the children
Suckling at her breasts she gives us life, she give us all we need
What do we give in return for life we take from her?
Oh, forgive us Mother, forgive us
For we know what we do We've blistered and burned you
Our kind may soon be through,

we've raped you...

Earth Mother is screaming, we can't live without her
No time left for dreaming here, she knows
Have we forgot our future?
Earth Mother, life giver, we can't live without her
So foolish, men who say they don't care
They'll be gone anyway

Earth Mother is screaming, we can't live without her
No time left for dreaming here, she knows
Have we forgot our future?
Earth Mother, life giver, we can't live without her
So foolish, men who say they don't care
They'll be gone anyway

Think of our little ones,
for whom the world has just begun....

He'll be more careful in the future. His actions have caused his wife and friend to suffer greatly sounds funny, he thinks. I have a wife that's married to someone else.
He'll laugh about that some other time"

It's winter-fall
Red skies are gleaming - oh -
Sea gulls are flying over
Swans are floatin' by
Smoking chimney-tops
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming ...?

The nights draw in
There's silky moon up in the sky - yeah -
Children are fantisising
Grown-ups are standin' by
What a super feeling
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming ...?
woh-woh-woh-woh

(dreaming)
So quiet and peaceful
Tranquil and blissful
There's a kind of magic in the air
What a truly magnificent view
A breathtaking scene
With the dreams of the world
In the palm of your hand

(dreaming)
A cosy fireside chat
A little this, a little that
Sound of merry laughter skippin' by
Gentle rain beatin' on my face
What an extraordinary place!
And the dream of the child
Is the hope of the man

It's all so beautiful
Like a landscape painting in the sky - yeah -
Mountains are zoomin' higher - mm -
Little girls scream an' cry
My world is spinnin' and spinnin' and spinnin'
It's unbelievable
Sends me reeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
Oooh - it' a bliss.

When You're Alone

27-12-2005

"When you're alone you can order the world into any kind of configuration that makes sense to you. The past is always accessible. Families are always safe. Victims are always innocent. The chief problem with alliences is that caring about someone necessitates acknowledging their reality...and their reality can introduce inconguitities that turn your stomach to lead."

Small World

26-12-2005

The Wise Man said to me:

"A man's world is as large as other's will allow it to be"

The Chance

25-12-2005

We're living in a constant fight
Too much pressure everywhere
And all around

Don't let it pull you down
Hold on tight
Cling to your dreams

Don't you depend on someone else
Think for yourself and win the race

The chance you got comes never twice
Do your best, (and) do it right

Time will come but don't you hide
You are on your way

You're led by God but you're not a pawn
Should live your life, don't care 'bout any scorn

Just let them fool around
No need to cry
Don't give up

Try to be as smart as you can be
I know you own so much ability

To See Or Not To See: See

23-12-2005

Sometimes I loose all my hope, in the world, in people and in me. Well, as always, I talked with the Wise Man and he said to me:

"I used to have a dream once. Not one of a King...Queen (and the Dragon on her neck). Just a little boy who lived in Darkness. Afraid of all he was all the time for he couldn't see. He used to say... I see nothing but I feel everything. He felt those around, but often we was blind that he also lost his touch. And he cried and cried. He was always hearing voices but couldn't understand what they were saying. One day it was all deadly silent...nothing...he was afraid...he never felt that lonely. Never felt that scared. So after he trembled with fear for a long time he finally took the hands of his eyes...and everybody was watching him, smiling."

I asked him what happened next and the Wise Man said to me

"I awoke"

Apenas para agradecer a todos a amizade, o carinho e apoio que me transmitiram com esse propósito ou até inadvertidamente através dos vossos trabalhos. Quando despertei para o DA foi através do pior acontecimento que podia alguma vez prever, o tal que não iria acontecer nunca (porque eu acredito em contos de fadas, de reis e rainhas (e de dragões também) mas surpreendentemente aconteceu. E tive que encarar com isso, tive que arranjar forças para continuar quando não queria continuar. Mas graças a este pequeno espaço essa força foi-me fornecida aos poucos, como se de suporte vital se tratasse. Conheci pessoas lindissimas, tão humanas senão mais que eu. E chorei com as suas fraquezas, alegrei-me com as suas loucuras. E aprendi tantas vezes aquilo que sempre soube. Aprendi que tudo acontece por uma razão, que choramos para nos rirmos a seguir para novamente chorarmos. Aprendi mais ainda sobre mim, sobre os meus limites, sobre o que tenho para dar, sobre o que quero dar. E tenho a sensação que o tempo que tenho é pouco para aplicar tudo o que aprendi, tenho a sensação que se não é agora será depois...eventualmente. Se morresse agora, penso que conseguiria o meu objectivo. O sorriso nos lábios. Tudo o que vi, tudo o que mostrei, tudo o que me mostraram, tudo o que vivi...os bons momentos que agora são maus por terem sido bons, tudo. Hoje. 25 anos depois, eu estou completo. E nada mudou. Mas tudo evoluiu.

A todos os que me observam, a todos os que observo. Obrigado. Espero poder retribuir o que vocês me mostram todos dias, espero vos tocar como vocês me tocam sempre com as vossas palavras e imagens.

Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.

Two faced woman with the two faced lies
I hope your two faced living made you satisfied
Tell me baby I was your only one
While you've been running around town with every mother's son
Told your story about the women like you
Told your story about the things you do
I used to think that you were sugar and spice
I should've listened to my mother's advice

Kicked in the teeth again
Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win
Kicked in the teeth again
Ain't this misery ever gonna end?
And I've been kicked in the teeth
Kicked in the teeth again

Two faced woman, such a crying shame
Don't know nothing, you're all the same
You run around, hope you had your fun
You never know who's gonna win till the race been run

The Light At The End Of The World

07-12-2005

An isle, a bright shining isle
stands forever, alone in the sea
Of rock and of sand and grass
and shale, the isle bereft of trees.

- Small. A speck in the wide blue
sea. 'Tis the last of all the land.
A dweller upon our lonesome
isle, the last, lonely man? -

By the Gods he is there to
never leave, to remain all his
life. His punishment for
evermore, to attend the
eternal light.

The lighthouse, tall and brilliant
white, which stands at the end
of the world. Protecting ships
and sailors too, from rock they
could be hurled

Yet nothing comes and nothing
goes 'sept the bright blue sea.
Which stretches near and far
away, 't is all our man can see.

Though, one day, up high on
rock, a bird did perch and cry.
An albatross, he shot a glance,
and wondered deeply, why?

Could it be a watcher sent?
A curse sent from the Gods,
who sits and cries and stares at him,
the life that they have robbed.

Each year it comes to watch
over him, the creature from above.
Not a curse but a reminder of
the woman that he loved.

- Oh weary night, under stars,
he'd lay and gaze.
Up towards the moon and stars.
The suns dying haze.

Time and again, Orion's light
filled our man with joy.
Within the belt, he'd see his love,
remembering her voice -

The twinkle from the stars above
bled peace into his heart
As long as she looks down on him
he knows they'll never part

One day good, one day bad
The madness, the heat, the sun,
Out to sea, he spies upon land.
His beloved Albion.

Cliffs of white and trees of green
Children run and play,
'My home land' he cries and weeps,
why so far away?

Eyes sore and red. Filled with tears,
he runs towards the sea.
To risk his life, a worthy cause,
for home he would be.

Into the sea, deep and blue,
the waters wash him clean.
Awake. He screams. Cold with sweat.
And Albion a dream.

- Such is life upon the isle,
of torment and woe.
One day good. One day bad.
And some days, even hope.

The light at the end of the world
burns bright for mile and mile
Yet tends the man, its golden glow,
in misery all the while?

For fifty years he stands and waits,
atop the light, alone.
Looking down upon his isle
the Gods have made his home -

The watcher at the end of the world
through misery does defile.
Remembers back to that single night
and allows a tiny smile.

(His sacrifice was not so great,
he insists upon the world.
Again he would crime,
Again he would pay,
for one moment with the girl)

Her hair, long and black it shone,
The dark, beauty of her eyes,
Olive skin and warm embrace,
her memory never dies.

'Twas years ago, he
remembers clear
the life they once did live.
Endless love and lust for life,
they promised each would give.

Alas, such love and laughter too,
was short as panting breath
For one dark night, her soul
was kissed
by the shade of death.

(Agony, like none before,
was suffered by our man.)
who tends the light now
burning bright
on the very last of land.

(Anger raged and misery too
like nothing ever before.)
He cursed the Gods and man
and life,
and at his heart he tore.

- A deity felt sympathy
and threw our man a light
'Your woman you may see again,
for a single night. -

But think hard and well young man,
there is a price to pay:
to tend the light at the end of
the world
is where you must stay.

Away from man and life and love.
Alone you will be.
On a tiny isle. A bright shining isle
in the middle of the sea.'

- 'I'll tend the light, for one more night
with the woman whom I love',
screamed the man, with tearful eyes,
to the deity above.

And so it was that very night
his lover did return.
To his arms and to their bed,
together they did turn.

In deepest love and lust and passion
entwined they did fall.
Lost within each other's arms
they danced (in lover's ball). -

- Long was the night filled with love.
For them the world was done.
Awoke he did to brightest light,
his woman and life had gone.

To his feet he leapt. To the sea he looked.
To the lighthouse on the stone.
The price is paid and from now on
he lives forever alone.

Fifty years have passed since then
and not a soul has he seen.
but his woman lives with him still
in every single dream.

'Tis sad to hear how young love has died
to know that, alone, someone has cried.
but memories are ours to keep.
To live them again, in our sleep.

Smell The Coffee

06-12-2005

"From cradle to grave, we're taught...indoctrinated! That happines depends on always getting more. Buy...throw away...buy more! Doesn't matter if we destroy the planet on the way! Politicians say they can fix the world's problems. Just give them more power. Religions say do mor of what they order and you'll be happy...but only after you're dead. They've been making the same hollow promises for thousands of years, and we the people...the sheep...have listened. But it's time to wake up and smell the coffee!"

Friends Again

05-12-2005

The Wise Man said to me:

"The friends we make and the friends we loose, are all better than the friends who want to make us lost"

Point Of View

04-12-2005
Yeah, you like a man when his mind is strong
When his ego's so high he couldn't be wrong
And you like a man when he's right at the top
When his ego is growing and it don't seem to stop

See I'd like to share your point of view
As long as it's my view too
Can't win on a comprise I'd rather loose on my own
'Coz I feel kind of good when I'm all alone

And you play the games by the book and the rules
See I play'em backwards - let's see who lose
Yeah, you don't gor for the man, you go for his balls
So let's see who stands & see who falls...

Yeah, I'd like to share your point of view
As long as it's my view too
Can't win on a comprise I'd rather loose on my own
'Coz I feel kind of good when I'm all alone
And if I take a stand it will be my own
And take it yeah! Yeah!!

Shhhhhh... Take a look in these eyes
Do they look sincere?. Do you read my lips
Do I make it clear? Bye bye so long,
I don't want you here...

Yeah, I tried to share your points of view
If not all then maybe just a few
I couldn't win on a compromise
I'd rather loose on my own
'Coz I feel kind of good when I'm all alone
And if I take a stand it'll be my own
Get out of my heart.
And my mind..
And my home..

Roaming

The Wise Man said to me:

"None roam so far as the mindless in search of the right words"

And they're so many...

Hope

02-11-2005

"-So much pain. If there's no more Marduk, will there be no more pain?
-That day has not yet come for Earth. It must, for now, remain a world of joy and sorrow. Man has a choice: he may worship fear and enslave himself to a false idol; or he may breathe free and be the God that lies within. We cannot know what man will do. All we can do is hope.
-Then... I....hope!"

Across The Fields Of Forever

01-12-2005

It all began with the shades of what we never thought existed.

The vision of the distorted views was no longer an illusion.
It was the plain and bitter truth. My divination that I never
dreamt
was now to become. Th pseudo silence an all I have unseen.
Life is a darkened silent barricade between all I am and ever
wanted to be.

We're soon to die...
Inherit the wisdom of the earth
Who has struck the bell?
That leads us into hell...

I explore myself with my inner eyes, the prodigal son dropped
his disguise
I stalk through the fields of my forsaken memories. Fading
away like
withering travesties. My inborn lust for adventures of sharpe-
less nature and
kind. I lie here clutching at straws, the dream savant chose
me blind

and then we die...
Inherit the sadness of the truth
Erupted are the seas
The epitaphs written in the breeze.

Eradicate our bounds from the earth
Internally, eternally never to emerge
Torment--Death on holy ground
Carnage--In blood we drowned...
The world cracks and we fall into decay
The waves of Styx sweeps the dying as I caress their souls.
My knowledge tickles as I cry, the sorrow spectrum grows.
I weigh my anchor and sail thru the rainbow... There's no
future to alter
I enter the other side...

and now we're dead...
Inherit the secrets neverknown
Explore the universe
Behold the ancients' curse
The Dead shall walk the earth.

So Damn Cool

28-11-2005

I wanna know, why the people are everywhere... and...
I wanna know, where to go if I get scared... and...
I wanna be, in a place where no one cares, and...

I, i, I wanna know you!
’cause you’re so damn cool!
Yeah, you’re so damn cool!

I wanna feel like I’m floatin’ in the air... and...
I wanna know if the sun’ss gonna bleach my hair... and
I wanna know why life’s so unfair and...

I wanna know you!
Because you’re so damn cool!
Yeah, you’re so damn cool!

Who knows what I’m feelin’ inside of me!
And who knows if I’m feelin’ all right!
Who knows what I’m feelin’ inside of me
Who knows what is runnin’ around in my brain

Now that I’m done and I seen it
And don’t think that I’m tryin’ to complain
Don’t think I’m lyin’ ’cause I mean it
N’ all you people out there don’t look at me to lay
All of your blame ’cause you need me
And you want me to go down
In flames with the rest
But I’m so sick of denyin’
What is runnin’ around in my brain
