ThePersonalLies I tear my mind apart Fragments scatter sideways in time An existence close to none Prime mover unknown, yet thoughts aren't mine The infinite swallows Sound and silence merge into one The orders from the inside Are lost and mute, a course to truth Who are you? What holds you down? What do you know? How can you cope? Do you still feel whole? Can you escape the personal lies? The wicked wallow now Sound and silence become none The voices from the outside Are lost and mute, a course to truth I read between the lives Dissolve and fuse what's inside Sometimes it feels like it's right Sometimes it's breaking my mind Sometimes I don't want to change I'd rather just stay the same Accept my face and my name My human form, it's ok But the more I sleep The more I dream and weep For the lives of my past That give me reason at last So when I slumber more The more I dream of doors That lead me to my past forms Of ravens, aliens and whores Of priests with sins Of harlequins with grins Of science, poets and wives Or lackluster empty deadbeat eyes Finding pieces of souls Should stitch them back, so I'm told Engraving flesh with their names Before the memory fades And maybe someday I will Collect my mistakes and I'll feel Release from this maze… Come full circle, do it all again A human form and a mind of god The lies I've told now unfold The best of worst, can't clench the thirst I'll be the first to admit I'm cursed Can't cope with this, an endless list Of pests I miss that don't exist The lows and highs, can't break the ties Abandon the self, depersonalize An alien abduction of self Realized in a moment Desire for singularity Now gone Owning the creation without beginning Is there really me? Reflecting upon the internal Deflecting the external What was never lost is found With thoughts of feelings I feel my thoughts Drilling through dimensions A futile existence with meaning

Identity Dispersion Children of light wandering through time Hoping for a purpose so divine Though their existence is a crime Grabbing all, swallowing without control Trusting the knowledge from ancient scrolls, mistakenly Violating their own souls, disgracefully Then the pressure cracks like broken glass All the shattered fragments disperse from the past A royal purpose of missing parts The puzzle pieces of a diffused heart In every shard a specter sleeps No righteous meaning for the weak But we still seek the lacking parts Not knowing we're each a form of art Skies alight in bleak twilight A brackish forest of the mind No life, nor light, nowhere to hide Why are we all so lost inside? From a perfect unity A fruit from a cosmic tree An essence shrouded in mystery When all is one, We're not free! Dispersion of identity tears the corpse in half What is left behind is a muted epitaph Dispersion of identity breaks the will in two Constructs of the mind barely pulling through What is left of us all? Merely statues of stone and cold Unresting soul that's still earthbound Noble essence in meaning drowned In the end the parts are scattered around

Chronicles of an Idealist Trying to reach an ideal that's useless Counting all the false abuses But all the strength I've gathered has no uses From now on I'll be ruthless Pierce the veil, march and never fail Along the trail that leads to unholy grail Eyes now rot, everything you ever sought Can be caught with thoughts of naught Now you hear a painful shriek The last thing you see is a plague doctor's beak And ideal life, full of lies A mindful lie, rise up high The idle eye, is not a prize What you saw was our demise Your final cry, of how and why The tears won't dry and a wish to die The world is sly, so you won't try The truth is close, but it shan't comply An honest mind, a single thought I hope it's mine, a hope that I sought A grain of sand, a moment passed In vain I stand, I can let go at last A touch, a scream, a choice, a dream This world, this will, so wrong and sealed And once again I'll break the time Dig myself out of this grime And I'll trust my heart, my eyes I can't This song's a prayer, these words, a chant

Fragments of Hate What made you what you are? Isn't it all so bizarre? The choices that you've made Making a wrong one, unpredictably afraid... Fragments of hate sticking to the core Controlling the anger, hate and gore Defining my every move The embrace of roots you can't remove You don't want to open your eyes You're not free at all Decisions made don't matter anymore Abandon the mirage and face the lies You'll never be free no more The will is spinning you out of control To be unbound, was all I wanted Instead I'm petrified and haunted The solace for humanity slips away The towers of hope were built out of soaking clay Past and future deemed hopeless and gray All the knowledge we learned lead us astray What made me is a scar Piercing my soul, the light of a star Seems so close and yet so far The hate inside burns everything to char Like a moth inside a jar Controlled by past from afar This corpse is just an avatar But now I shall break this seal Before my fate I shan't kneel All the memories that now are welling Fragments from the past thunderously yelling! All I wanted was to be free The pain, misfortune now defines me

Trust NoOne I'll write it down, but it won't matter My false joy on paper splattered Same pain disguised in a different pattern All the hopes in silence shattered You can build, but I will crumble Distracting voices, dreadful mumbles The weight of truth, a thousand pounds A deadly game of hare and hounds And it sounds like me, but trust NoOne I promised you all, even the Sun A broken promise that can't be undone Please save this for your firstborn son You know I was honest and true You knew I couldn't handle you A ''Sorry'' that sounds so wrong ''I miss you and I hope you hear this song'' In my chest I know I'm blessed Oppressed through people I know best Obsessed with lies I've confessed Undressed in front the lying pests Depressed with fears I have suppressed Possessed with feelings of unrest And I confess, without you I am less And I attest to these words that I detest The strength of two that was so great Leaving hate at the gate But now it's too late… The scenery that's tried and true Don't regret the time that flew Even though it's lost through and through…and through The ones you know you shouldn't trust We've tried it all, what's left of us Praise of love turned to dust, then rust The things I've said I meant it all We didn't know they announced the fall Please don't answer this call…at all
