Dark Water

Forced to see the future
Into the mirror that never breaks

The seduction and destruction

Joined in spirit of blind faith 

The abyss looking back

at the rich, the wise and the poor

From avoidance to acceptance

Watching time killing us slow

I'm silent as the waves whisper

Fate is not yours to lose

It's not yours to fool

It drove better men mad

Get what you want

lose what you had

I see my reflection 

in worlds light years way

I hear my screams in the void

The echo knows no names

I fight the endless night

And high tides in vain

A shadow in the shade

Adrift in the dark water

Forced to see the unknown

With hazy stubborn eyes

Caught between need and greed

The disdain and delight

In the endlessness of ends

Anything can resemble to love

From despondence to consequence

Wherever you go, fate will follow

The Deep End

I learned to fill with prayers

The sterile silence I dread

Purging and casting spells 

Begging till my knees bled

Everytime I hold my breath

His moans summons demons

Legions of lust and regret

From the back of my mind

To the front of my wide-eyed gaze

You're there as a mirage

In every plea and every praise

The closing that didn't bring closure

Truce is a farce, love is dissatisfied

They won't kill me with their lies

But please let all this be over 

I can't keep killing you

No matter how much I want to

Say your peace, let it go in the wind

With a whole eternity to live or waste

I'll burn your body, I'll say your name

I'll light up candles to your grace

To contemplate where love cast shadows

And contempt drains the strength

The madness chasing us down

to the deep end

Living through little white lies 

A spirit billows in pale memories

Playing back psalms and songs

To cast away the reverie

In dirty secrets and treacheries

With the faith of the unfaithful

Still he moans ill and unholy

The hunger of the fires

Consuming the whole limbo down

To show, illuminate and purify

Then leaving ashes in my mouth

In the forever of his stillness

He doesn't need to say it anymore

I'll always remember the song

And he won't forget a single note

Then I had to kill you

Although I didn't have to

Slowest Burn

Laid at your cruel mercy

Resting in my glory, pretty and whole

In the afterglow of awe and euphoria

The wait was thankless and long

Breath undone, my prayers in silence

The violence of wanting and despair

The demons in my mind

All the shadows coming from within

Vibrating to the touch of the light

The sins in our apocryphals

We fall from the grace we forge

And we conquer havens in the sky

Promise me death and life

Through hell and through time

The misery and delight of who we are

I'll witness you with my love

I'll bathe you in my own blood

To overcome and dance in the dark 

Through crazy twists and turns

The hottest flame and slowest burn

The one who came from afar

Brokenhearted with ashes in his hand

Fate is your ally and your alibi

You dared me calling it by it's name

Claiming rituals and confessions

And concessions for it to come alive

This lonely elation wraps me in its ruin

Consumed in the purest of the wantings

And in it's little deaths it's satisfied

In your arms I’m neither saint nor sinner

I'm a spirit craving for transcendence

And flesh burning in candlelight

Shapeshifter

Standing together on the moon

I knew when you wanted my soul

It's known your desire casts spells

Create lives and rises tides

You carved your whisper on my skin

A secret hymn the saints can’t sing

About fallen prophets, gods and kings

In the dead of night you heard my call

Feisted on my flesh, rejoiced in my fall

And there was nothing I wanted at all

Dancing at your castle of bones

I hear the echoes of the vows I made

The tirades and crusades for justice

Erotic tales in the language of angels

You've taught me magic and demise

Fed me the bread and poured me wine

To conquer me, subjugate and colonize

Lured into the oblivion of who I am

With ashes and blood in my hands

Singing lullabies written in the sand

I see you through smoke and fire

As the fortune-teller and the liar

The man, sheep, bull and lion

Your predictions and illusions

Your schemes and desilusions

I see the shadow and the flame

The promise and its own bane

And I call you by your name

Shapeshifter

Roaming around the desert

Where I was deserted of innocence

My penitence was loving too much

Until it became punishment

You come to me like death itself

Wanting to know me like yourself

Deceiving through glory and wealth

Dare my love to survive your curse

Change my oath, change my words

Throw me to the fire and let me burn

You'll never make me feel less

You'll never make me love you more

When I came back from the dead

I said I wouldn't die anymore

Liquid Sky

Tell me about how every breath is a prayer

Turn my blood into water, poison into wine

Reveal the mystery and the nightmare

Of every miracle that you deny 

and every coup that you strike 

I hear your silence screaming

In thunderous tantrums of the greedy

In high treason crimes and war cries

In conspiracies and genocides

Through those speaking in your name

They ask for love and for rain

As they claim the tides will rise

And the world will burn in flames

Your vow, written in crooked lines

Shadowed by what they proclaim

Profess the end in water and fire

They ask for love and for pain

Cause it's all the same in your

liquid sky

O que vocês disseram no escuro 

será ouvido à luz do dia; 

o que sussurraram nos ouvidos dentro de casa

será proclamado dos telhados.

Tell me about how every promise is a hymn

Cast all your stones and your blind spell 

You've made the sinner and the sin

The lies the righteous always tell

The betrayal fascists always yell

You give me chance and choice

Through neglect and white noise

Through emptiness and disbelief

Through their coups of amnesty

As they're allowed to use your name

Não há nada oculto que não venha a ser revelado

e nada escondido que não venha a ser trazido à luz.

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
