Lügen
Lügen
Change it,
The faces that you put on everyday.
Plaster your empty smile across your appearance,
Mutate the way the outsiders see you.
I see the pain that drives you,
The ambitions that unravel you.
I see the pats on the back they give;
You always go home and cry in the end.
I can see you look,
Each time your sight travels
I can see you try to find
Each time you have that searching expression.
Stand back as you see the mask
Your mask; see that they all put on
The same façade. I see your amazed look
When you finally figure it out.
But I doubt you ever will.
I don't need your pity,
You who hides behind a mask;
Too afraid to face the world.
I don't need your kindness….
Why don’t you just scream at me;
Run far away, and leave me be.
I see the truth that drives you,
And the lies that mask you.
I see your broken promises,
Lying under the rooftops of your past.
I see your shattered dreams,
Visible and taunting every time you dare to close your eyes.
I can see your pain,
The guilt that makes you lose yourself.
I see the haunting happiness
That gives you a false hope for the future
That is yet to come….

Engelsflügel
Engelsflügel
Today, I was walking through the alleys,
Thinking about you.
I drifted mindlessly,
Until I couldn't find a trace of the path
I seemed to have taken;
It was a dead end.
But not quite….
There were two birds out there,
One white and beautiful,
So unblemished, and surreal;
Then there was the grey one,
It was also beautiful, yet it seemed so real.
But, the grey one had a lame wing.
Before I knew it,
The white one was flying,
It went up the dark alley
And into the sky,
But it lingered in a wire,
One that held on to a pole,
Seeming to wait for the grey one.
The latter tried.
It simply tried flying up;
It fell down.
The bird then tried on and on for quite sometime.
I stood there,
Watching its effort be fruitless.
The white one also stood there,
Patiently; just simply waiting.
It broke my heart, though;
It seemed to have no sympathy,
No remorse. It didn't even go
And encourage the grey bird.
The grey one was still trying,
And it was almost sunset
Until it gave up.
I sat down and stared at it;
And it turned around and
Gazed at me; pleading, almost.
I then raised up,
And held up the grey bird.
We stood there,
The grey bird and I,
Not knowing what to do.
We waited, and it was not even dark,
The sun hadn't even set;
Even the sun seemed to wait for the grey one
To fly.
And held my hand up high,
And heaved the grey bird.
It flew, yet it seemed to have fallen.
There was a pause, and I can still picture it
In my mind,
Like it only just happened a few movements ago.
The bird flew high up,
While the white one could only
Follow in awe; in amazement.
Even I watched it in amazement,
As it flew high up,
Off toward the setting sun,
Never looking back.

Deiner Gnade
Deiner Gnade
I could name each
And every star in the universe
After you.
You could stand by me
And never have anyone distress you.
I could be still,
And not have my regrets
Placed before me.
You could fly across the world,
Your beauty, so unperturbed,
So untroubled. So undisturbed.
I would stand here,
And revel in all
I can….
You would glide
In your grace.
Man kind's jealousy of your
Elegance. Your agility….
And I,
I would be your sword
In bloodshed and battle.
Your shield through
Pain and war,
Suffering and scorn….
I could name
Each and every
Star after you,
Make do with every
Smile I see in you.

Zephyr
Zephyr
Black skies flying overhead.
I keep walking but all I can see is
The dark clouds passing me by.
I see a broken mirror,
Shards flying in dead air.
I see a crippled mask,
Its owner crumpled to the ground.
I see crushed houses,
Their roof tops shattered in,
Their windows blocked,
Their doors with bullet holes.
I see fire surrounding
The forest in which I walk on,
Trees evaporating the smoldering dusky sky.
Flowers ablaze in the darkened zephyr.
I see their plastered smiles,
Lying though their teeth.
Pretending never works when
It's transparent.
I can see their world,
Feel their helplessness.
Trust broken in two,
Paradise twisted in all.

Radiation
Radiation
The vast clouded skies darken,
Their burden falling in little droplets.
The tall trees have been shaken,
As the wind blows merciless.
The green grass turns yellow and burns.
While the once blooming flowers wither.
The deeps seas rise in their tsunamis,
And the earth cracks as lava rises,
Ashes travel in the blackened air.
Land becomes devoured by water,
And the cities sink,
The prosperous cities.
The scorched skies,
Their burden falling in acid rain.
Wild fires burning in forests;
Burnt leaves swinging back and forth.
It's not always a choice to decide,
When your own world is destroyed.
When there was everything to lose,
And nothing to gain.
Mutated humans,
In their liege.
Broken houses,
Unbreakable famine.
Violent wars
And hatred.
Radiation….

Dämmerung
Dämmerung
Remember the black dusk,
Where we shared our dreams?
The boundless blue sky,
The emerald sea.
Remember the meadow,
Where the white flowers bloomed.
Where we ran, chasing the blue butterflies.
Where we laid, the sun shining on our faces.
Now, I see you,
And I think that maybe,
It was all a lie.
I know I wont miss you.
I can't seem to find
The words to describe how I've felt
During those times,
When you were just there, and not truly mine.
I used to break when I saw you.
The way you smiled,
Your quiet ways of being so easily amused.
I know I wont miss you.
I remember everyday,
When I used to just shine,
Feel I was lucky, knowing you.
I know I wont miss you.
I remember your promise,
I remember it everyday.
I know I could never miss you.
No, I could never miss
Your lies and boundless smiles;
Your warm laughter and cold eyes.
No, I could never miss you.
I remember the forests
We used to hide in,
We were so small
Compared to the majestic trees.
Through the darkness that fell,
As the blue sky darkened.
No, I don't miss you.
Not one bit.
Where You Lead
but yeah. = )
it's kinda short-ish...lol
Where You Lead
I think I'll stay here…
Take another breather.
Break another bridge,
Make another asperser.
Don't want to chase
Another lie,
I want to break all my ties, and
Never take another chance to smile.
Can't find my balance
In this world.
These words fly past me
And I can't find my responses.
Can't lie to me,
Knowing all that you've done.
Can't lie to you,
When only truth comes out of me. But
I'll tell you everything you want to hear,
Just this once, when there's nothing to fear.
I'll bring you everything you need,
And know that when I'm gone, I know where you'll lead.
And I, I think I'll just stay here.
I think I'll just stay here.
Watching you move on,
Watching you carry on. But
I'll tell you everything you want to hear,
Just this once, when there's no fear.
I'll bring you everything you need,
And know that when I'm gone, I know where you'll lead.
I know where you will lead….
Top Of The World
I know I say a lot of things,
But I can't stay this way.
You're the only thing real to me
Because of the way you are and what you say.
Things are meant to be
Said the way they're felt.
Broken hearts can't be mended
By wishing they were….
I'm walking down these streets,
They're full of memories
Both flawless, and damaged.
And I don't wanna say goodbye,
But nothing's coming out right.
You're on top of my world.
And you're the only thing
I can carry, without pain.
All I can say is I need you,
And that you're the most genuine
Thing I know.
You're the only thing I can carry
Without pain.
You're out of this world,
And I could never leave.
And I want to be all
You want in me.
Everything you want in me.
You're the only genuine thing I know,
And I won't be me without you.
Never without you.

Auszehrung
....that's all i'll say...does it sound too....abrupt?
and it's short...= \
= O
Auszehrung
When I'm falling,
And you're catching me.
I don't know why
But I wish you were the only one to blame...
You just can't disappear from my eyes
And nothing's the same.
Could you just stand,
And never say a word?
Every time, I see you
I see you catching me.
I know this is not the best for us,
But promise that we'll be fine.
Because when I'm wasting away,
I'm wasting away for both of us.
I know I'm going to
Laugh it out
And smile along the way.
No matter how much I bleed,
I'll hide it away.
Because whenever I see you
And everything just disappears.
I've given you a rose,
A red one, too.
But don't they always dry up
And die later on?
But scatter all the petals
They're all just floating away…
Because they'll always be gone in the end.
It's always just the same.
They always float away in the end….

Retourner l'époque.
haha
idk if it's good or not...as always. i hope ya'll like it! = )
Retourner l'époque.
Maybe you need to try,
What was your lie for?
If you could just
Go back in time.
Baby,
I think you need to...
To find yourself,
No more of your lies and excuses.
Baby,
Don't you wish that
You could turn back time?
And listen as
We both cry.
Didn't you see her face?
Her sad, sad delusional face?
Did you think that I'd
Take your excuses
And take you back?
What did you
Think that time?
Overlooked you lie,
Have you?
Baby,
I think you need to…
To find yourself
And no more of your lies and excuses.
Baby,
Don't you wish
You could turn back time?
And listen as
We both cry.
What makes you think they'll stay?
What did you find?
A broken lie.
Baby,
Don't you think that
I'll leave you once
I get you. Backed against the wall,
Couldn't let you just fall like that.
Had to tell you,
That you won't have this.
Don't let down your guard,
I'm not broken and
I wont,
Take your lie.
Baby where have you been?
Your lies and excuses,
If you could just turn back your time.
Baby,
I think you need to…
To find yourself
And no more of your lies and excuses.
Baby,
Don't you wish
You could turn back time?
And listen as
We both cry.
They wont stay with you,
No more.
I think you need to find another life.
Another lie to hide.
Another lie to live.

Vino avvelenato (Poisoned Wine)
the title is in Italian. the translation as you can see, is the " Poisoned Wine" = D
enjoy!!
Vino avvelenato (Poisoned Wine)
Here's for the one whose
Heart was more valuable than Gold.
But knew not of his love.
Here's for the one whose
Heart was made of Stone
But couldn't help his insecurity.
Here's for the one who
Couldn't see ,
Blinded by hate
And engulfed by anger.
Here's to the one
Who was too late,
Who couldn't even smile once it was over,
Who stood for too long.
Here's to the one who
Decided his love was too cheap,
Couldn't even bring himself to find her.
Here's to the him
Whose chances were too slim.
Who decided his love was too cheap
To even find her.
Here's to the one
Powerful and rich,
He knew not of happiness.
Couldn't be generous enough.
Here's to these six cursed souls,
Who realized they had nothing.
For they all lacked qualities.
Forgive me,
But I wager,
They'll all find an excuse to drink
This poisoned wine,
Before all is over.

Eons
Eons
It's been years,
Centuries,
Since I've felt this old.
My bones have dried
And they shake every time I move.
My muscles have become nonexistent,
And my eyes have lost their sight.
It's been millenniums since
I took back my throne,
And yet my subjects haven't gotten used to me.
It's been decades
Since I got back what's mine,
And just months since I wrote my history.
Fate tells of such a destiny,
Of a calm life
And happy days.
Fate tells of such a destiny,
The same destiny,
So tedious,
With no wars,
No differences,
No uniqueness .
There are no histories,
No accomplishments.
It's been millenniums
Since I took my throne,
As the ruler.
It's been eons,
My bones have grown weak,
And my citadels lie in ruins.

Break
= )
Break
To the seas that dance with such fury,
And the winds that flow in such hurry.
For the rain that falls swiftly,
And the desert that seems so timeless....
Our land, we shaped,
And the trees we created,
It was all in vain.
It was our paradise.
We were the Gods.
And the lands were our Castles.
We defined it,
We hadn't known of the limits.
Our marred perfection,
Our greed never went away.
Our indulgence to the new,
Nay respect for the old...
It breaks, our world,
It's broken.
Reflection of our marred perfection.
Break down,
Our loyalty is to ourselves,
Even now,
We know not of guilt.
Our desert has come to an end.
Our once timeless desert....
The wind has blown its sand away
And all there can be seen is the earthen floor.
Where is our land?
Our Castles,
We once so restlessly ruined?
Our creations we once loved,
But are so desolated now.
We were Gods,
Now we are nothing.
And yet,
We know not of guilt,
But of our indulgence is to ourselves,
And only
Us.
Break, dire land.
Take our Castles with you.
Break,
And show us contrition
Of what we've knowingly done....
Break.

Ich hier warten.
<> the title means "I wait here" in German.
Ich heir warten.
Listen as the rain sings,
The same clouds we see,
Together.
Listen as the wind blows,
Know that I am with you,
Where ever you go.
Come, come with me,
Where the stars shine,
And the sea dances in its own tune.
Where the wind is like a caress,
And the skies are never the limit.
Where the sun is ever so visible,
Yet the light is still there,
The weather is mild,
And the snow is calm.
I wait here, for you.
Listen, listen as the
Leaves sing their hymn for us.
Let them wishper
The myth of The Broken Ages.
When the wars still existed,
Where pain and suffering
Were like sisters,
Never apart,
And always inevitable.
Come with me,
Where dreams always shine.
And there is no war.
No guilt.
I wait here, for you.
I wait forever.

Mentir à moi
-.-' but here it is; please comment. = ) the title means 'Lie To Me' in French = )
Mentir `a moi
Tied with my shackles
To the ground.
Pain in my blood,
That still flows down.
Lie to me.
Tell me I'm not dying.
Lie to me.
Tell me I'm still breathing.
I've lost myself in these beautiful
Sceneries, I can't come back down.
There are angels knocking at my door,
I fear they've come to take me.
And I know it's not my time.
Lie to me.
Say you need me,
And I'll stay.
Lie to me.
Break them apart,
You're my only shield.
They've come for my soul,
And I fear they wont leave.
I fear I've lost my way
And I know I can't find myself.
I can't come back down.
I fear there's nothing left of me.
Lie to me.
Silence is too thick,
The deathbed I've created for myself.
Lie to me.
And I promise I'll stay.

Verlangsamen ( Slow Down )
When the things we want seem
So far away
We can't even reach it.
And there are times,
When we know we can't
Leave,
Leave the rest of the world behind
And stay in our darkness,
No matter how much we want to.
Slow down,
Listen to your cries, and right now
Just listen to my heartbeat,
I could just stop right now.
Push away all that we've known
And all that we could ever know....
Bonds can be broken
Silver, tarnished bonds.
The fallen glasses, they
Could have just been mended. Now,
They're just broken.
Slow down,
Listen to your cries, and right now
Listen to my heartbeat,
I could just stop right now. I,
I could just stop now.
Golden skies are ours
To fly in.
Blue skies are just for dreamers.
Dreamers who never wake up.
Verlangsamen.
