DÉCEMBRE NOIR LYRICS

1. A Discouraged Believer

Darkness!
Emptiness!
Ruthlessness!
I walk through a storm inside my soul!

In darkness
My twin - emptiness!
Endless ruthlessness!
I walk through a storm inside my soul!

I drown inside this innermost hell
Lost and captive in a human cell
Grief pearls sparkle in these eyes
Slowly I shrink and everything dies
I am unable to change my fate
When all my hope turns to hate
I shall hurt myself for salvation
Since I breathe life's damnation

Down in a hole - I walk through a storm inside my soul

Too many bastards reach for my young mind
Inside the filthy selfish streets of the mankind
With an abysmal disgust and wrath I run away
I know on dread's playground I can never stay

There is a darkness anchored deep inside my heart
I can't break the tide chains before I'm torn apart
This narrow cold embrace is another kind of pain
In every time I beg for an end of that torture in vain

I am the discouraged believer by God's goodness
Embedded inside an ugly farewell's ruthlessness
I can't longer depend from my isolation's misery
In desperation I search for the caress of eternity

Darkness!
Emptiness!
Ruthlessness!
I walk through a storm inside my soul!

In darkness
My twin - emptiness!
Endless ruthlessness
I walk through a storm inside my soul!

The shadow of the future covers my morning sun
A new day in hell has just begun
One thought kills inside my sleepy brain
I can't give my life for all - I always feel the same

There is a darkness anchored deep inside my heart
I can't break the tide chains before I'm torn apart
This narrow cold embrace is another kind of pain
In every time I beg for an end of that torture in vain

I stare into the abyss
Behind the gates of the demise
Into flames of nothingness
I hear the scarred soul cries

2. Thorns

One great metamorphosis arises
Across my pitiful life
Since I am your earth's depression

Three long nails are enough
Around to cover the wood
When rusty thorns numb my senses

I taste sweetness of the crucifixion
Let me bleed among the crown
You can never give your face my pain

Upon death's mountain I wait for the stars
I still feel the hungry touch of the sun
Flames that burn my tortured barren skin

But the cross makes me strong
For what I become
I am your captive butterfly
So high beneath the sky

And I close my sleepy eyes
Fall with my thoughts and you
To a forlorn red temple that cries
For the lament of broken dreams and oaths

You've swallowed up the shiny fruits of my love
The kisses that you've given were not honest
Only your greed for mind devastation
Slowly I kiss the final line of own self-righteousness

I hear and see the clouds cry - Your heaven's black water sigh

Inside this storm I am alone
Like a useless stone that must atone
Within a cold perdition's fire
The doomed man underneath the salt of your tragedies mire

3. The Forsaken Earth

Unhallowed soil among feet and body
Enslaved by the smoke of steel machines
Inside a poisoned garden from God's hand
My pathway of the nothingness
Bitterness licks my wounds and my lips
When I look through the ruins of my streets
And I pray for my dead brothers and sisters
Without peace inside my confused mind

Painted in grey is the barren fatherland
Fallen with the failed king upon life's chessboard
Like the proud warrior's hearts
I am the last - I am the blood - I am the doomed man

My longest journey has just begun
Inside a labyrinth of thorns and blood
So far away from the human nature
Deep within a tomb of atonement

With sorrow in sleepy eyes I crawl away
In the cold rain
But carried by hope and faith

I follow - red rivers - full of despair
To the gates of the hidden sun
For my tomorrow without pain...without pain

Unhallowed soil among feet and body
Enslaved by the smoke of steel machines
Inside a poisoned garden from God's hand
My pathway of the nothingness
Bitterness licks my wounds and my lips
When I look through the ruins of my streets
And I pray for my dead brothers and sisters
Without peace inside my confused mind

I am the last - The isolation - The blood - The mourning - I am the forsaken earth

Unhallowed soil among feet and body
Enslaved by the smoke of steel machines
Inside a poisoned garden from God's hand
My pathway of the nothingness

4. Décembre Noir

The world has changed its face
An eerie place - In December's mire
Lost behind the window
I know the snow burns like fire

Slowly comes the blankness
The time is right
November's dirge - The end
The enemy kills in white

Now I close the door
Tiny liberation
With a cure for the next days
For another salvation

Shadows of the past will rape my heart
The chamber corners let me shrink

The cross in my hands
And I pray to the sun
Thoughts whisper to God
Please use the gun

5. Stowaway

Gently I taste suicide air
Within the hourglass of despair
Angry grains push me down
In deep waves of sand I drown

I crawl upon a lonesome line
In a fragile world that never was mine
I am the worm and search for food in sorrow's moor
My heart is a cocoon around a depressive core

Filthy is the entrance of eternity
Salt drops run from my milky face freely
This life builds an ocean of thorns and dismay
With the ruthlessness of this gruesome day

I am embedded by the rain robe of an outstretched night
In void's mouth that shall swallow up my last pride
Underneath this pathetic sky that I despise
I know this hard mountain will come to a rise

Within a few seconds I breathe the earth's decay
Cold uncertainty surrounds that chosen pathway
I bury heart's fragments with a great desperation
Since I am the jaded icon of my self-domination

Slowly I observe the human feelings rot
Sometimes I sink in this ascending flood
When my spirit for eternal freedom cries
Then hope remains in these ancient eyes

I suffer with a silent cry - By the final day that I deny
And the small life shall drown torn asunder - I stand alone with the pain that is my hunter
I can't wait for death's embrace - I will stain me with disgrace

And I fall down to my knees and pray
To the sleepless Gods that turn away
Inside this realm I cannot be the king
Because I fill innocent hands with sin
I transform my blade's almighty force
To pure pandemonium and unbridled claws
The icy steel kisses the skin and veins of me
In vertigo's drunkenness I set all bother free

The strings tear apart - Stillness is the grand award

6. Resurrection

Now the blood runs to a coffin bed so fresh
Each sorrow fades with the barren flesh
I desert my useless body and mourning place
Finally I've found the exit in life's maze

My resurrection!

I am an old stowaway that can't stay
With growing wings I glide away
I drift deeper into the tunnel's white
And I touch my last remaining light

My resurrection!

Lost colours are recaptured in a funeral from my past
Everything breaks inside my blackened world of glass
Fallen is my soul's darkness with the last grain of sand
A blue horizon is reflected for that journey's end

Now the blood runs to a coffin bed so fresh
Each sorrow fades with the barren flesh
I desert my useless body and mourning place
Finally I've found the exit in life's maze

7. Escape To The Sun

A world exists beyond your eyes
And every heart can learn to feel this force
Within that maze it's hard to see
But we all can break through this darkness

So many souls drown in their simple lives
They cannot find their surface of the light
Because they choose to believe the lies
Around to reach foggy and wrong shores

Find the holy temple in yourself
The quest has just begun
A blue horizon shows the pathway
Over madness and sadness of this barren earth

You can be free
The wounds will heal
Forget and see
You can be free

You are like me
A discouraged believer by God's goodness
Inside an empty hourglass
We must break the silence now

We're all beings of frustration and aggression
But we can take a look behind the masquerade of our human perdition
If we increase our sight - If we stay
Open your heart and your mind
Around to touch the sweetness of the sun
