Equinox

Sacrifice me at the altar of the damned, baby

I've made a promise I might not keep

At the brink of no longer knowing who I am

The truth is maybe I just never did

I found a thrift shop in a street corner of hell

And they begged me to sell my soul

The best place for thieves to save themselves

The worst place for angels to lose control

Deceive me at the feet of the gods, baby

I'm all yours to love, hate, destroy and kill

Stop the time before the equinox

And let's dance to the sound of our thrills

Consume me until there's nothing more, baby

Pull me apart and put me back together

Picked like a camellia or a white bloomed rose

That grows in any shithole of liquid heaven

I kneeled to pray in a church in the wind

A castle on the hill, a room in the dark

As if I'm the one who invented sin

As they put me together to pull me apart

Forget me until you can't remember why, baby

Let me undo the story if it'll be last thing I'll do

Kissed goodbye under the hottest neon lights

To hear "sorry, I was never in love with you"

When devil came my way, I didn't know what to say

Take my life, roll my dice, my heart is yours

He took my hand, took a selfie and faded away

The day I knew my soul wasn't mine anymore

House of Mirrors

Look at my face and scars
Tear my whole world apart

In curses and fever dreams

Chase the twisted ways of my veins

The highest highs and deepest pains

How could I be who I used to be?

Cause I'm the rage and the revenge

I'm the fury and the insurgence

I don't forgive, I don't forget

You're the reverie and a faded memory

The choice and the hopeless misery

You no longer can say you know me

Though forever I'll be trapped

in your house of mirrors

Hear the echo of the silence

Resonating solitude and consequence

And the sentence of all your days

Haunting my fears and my lovers

Still blaming me for not recovering

But not letting me get away

Don't steal words from my mouth

Don't rip my heart off my chest

Don't force me to confess

Your sins out loud

I don't forgive, I don't forget

In my greatest moment of doubt

In my prayers to understand death

Endings and blessings

I don't forgive, I don't forget

Radioactive

There was a time when truth and lies
were unknown for desperate eyes

And your hate speech and lullabies

were the perfect twisted disguise 

This useless silent war you impel

The tricks and tales the traitors tell

Judging judges as if they're god himself

Hurt a nation and you'll hurt yourself

It doesn't take much to take you down

And defeat you in your revenge fantasy

The tyrants and torturers you bow down to

Will go down with their blind vanity

Watch the world you once knew fade away

As you pay the price for your betrayal

Lost case, unfulfilled prophecy

Fallen idol, radioactive

Tomorrow brings the justice of the dead

And the aftermath of your lost bets

Stretching the rope 'til where it can get

Facing the world with lies and idle threats

Greed abhors a vacuum, chaos is a ladder

From where your glass bones will shatter

Searching for love, descending to madness

The mirage of praise you're eternally after

Denied in life and death, by allies and foes

No god and no devil to buy your soul

Coup from coup, but no amnesty in hell

In limbo, in this land or in your cell

Nine Lives

As you accept destiny with it's tragedy and farce

The irredeemable evil which plays its part

Has kept me in its mercy for just so long

Once you're the one being kept and built

Loved, snitched, betrayed and killed

What else could you possibly die for?

Life curses the bravery of wanting too much

Watching blind faith turning into pure yearn

I think I've lost a few parts of my soul

In a world they deceive you with the truth

And gut you as sacrifice for the greater good

What else could you possibly die for?

In the thunderous echo of memory

I know you'll remember me

From flesh to flesh, ash to ash

Face to face, eye for an eye

My heart bears the weight of nine lives

Almost loved, almost chosen

Almost risen, but never dead

As you see too many suns setting on you

The rapture of nothing else left to do

Has witnessed me with calm affection

Fate always repeating the same ghostly dance

And the way how it takes you by the hand

To bring demise, then resurrection

I've lost too much time and too many lives

Searching for lovers in torturers

I don't know who to blame anymore

Endless negotiations, trials and tribulations

Until I no longer recognize myself

Though I can't be someone else
