1. Primordial Scenery
(The land of replaced souls)
Shudders of life
Through my fainted eyes run
What astonishment
Those golden mountains
They raise sage
Omniscent dust throughout time
Orgies of colours
White clouds reflect
From waving flowers... so bright
The wind caresses the ancient foliage
The leaves whisper like voices saying...
Welcome
To the land of replaced souls
Here human soul
Is delighted in everlasting peace...
You who blows emotions
Through skylight splinters... please
Disclose to my soul
Sweating bare roots
Overgrown with moss
Crystal-clear waters they cry
High foamy crests
From this sea of pureness
Twirl placidly up to the sky
The waves split on hard clouds
The uproar resounds like a voice whispering...
Welcome
To the land of replaced souls
Here human soul
Is delighted in everlasting peace...
We all will return
To the elements of the primordial scenery
2. As Blood Moves
(A tale of everlasting passion)
... the wind now rose with great violence
The moon was beginning to descend
The clouds swept across it and dimmed her rays
While the lake reflected the scene of the busy heavens
Rendered still busier by the restless waves
Suddenly a heavy storm of rain descended...
[MARY SHELLEY - "Frankenstein"]
Ages followed ages in endless history
Asleep was my blood
Covered with my home-ground
The vibe of life felt...
Restless through my veins
Was it when liv'd the sight
She one soul enraptures
Then vanishes forever
Thus hath such a tempest overwhelmed my own fate
My heart enabled again to love or hate
Once my dull sleep broken enlighted was the quest
For my blood thine feels rejecting all the rest
Damned am I and suffering
Sith the first day my sleep I lost...
...as blood moves
My heart bleeds
And dresses me in red
[The prophecy]
'who bleeds for love
Deceived is by beauty
He'll roam in the dark
And drink blood in eternity'
As blue and refreshing is the sea of my passion
Or clash may the clouds stormy my darkness
Thy nearness my blood feels with serene emotion
Or suffers alone crying out thy remoteness
Sith the first day art thou my mistress
...as blood moves
My heart bleeds...
...and dresses me in red
'...a batlike soul waking to the consciousness of itself
In darkness and secrecy and loneliness.'
[J.Joyce - "A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man"]
3. Art Bleeds
(Viewpoints of dying artists)
'Life is
A luminous halo
A shower of atoms'
[V. WOOLF - "The Narrow Bridge Of Art"]
'Works of art are made
Of endless loneliness
It's only lave who can grasp and cherish them
Time is not a measure here
To be an artist means to grow like a patient tree
Trustfully resisting to the strongest spring winds
Without fearing that summer will not come
Cause summer will!'
[R.M. RILKE - "letters to a young poet"]
'When my disheartened soul roams inside
To catch an emotion death and life collide
And like moths attracted by a shining light that leads
The cells of heart set forth and so... so it bleeds!
'An everbleeding wound
A wound is art
And art forever bleeds'
[JOE - "art bleeds"]
'Timeless moments slaying death'
[T.S. ELIOT]
'Enchantments of the heart'
[J. JOYCE]
'Life is a heap
Of meaningless ironic ruins
Death the final montage through which
Our life can express ourselves
Life ends where it begins
The artist is a trembling idiot'
[P.P. PASOLINI]
'When my disheartened soul roams inside
To catch an emotion death and life collide
And like moths attracted by a shining light that leads
The cells of heart set forth and so... so it bleeds!
An everbleeding wound
A wound is art
And art forever bleeds'
[JOE - art bleeds]
'I want to be a poet
And i'm making myself voyant...'
[A. RIMBAUD - "letter to G. Izambard"]
4. Mermaids Beloved
[Instrumental]
5. Anticlimax
'To feel the colour of darkness
Caressed by this freezing breeze... Nooo!'
No reflections from a waterpool
Will feed allucinations
Art is left to burn on the stake
To bestow life into the highest form
Experience
When meaning is no more possible
A different form, it is needed
The higher level of perception:
The unspeakable!
To be dead in an empty page
ANTICLIMAX
The negative utopia
No metaphor will heal
The crisis of words
Which makes the mind ask for more
When words repeat themselves.
...to eternity
And meaning is no more possible
A different form, it is needed
The higher level of perception:
The unspeakable!
To be DEATH in an empty page
ANTICLIMAX
The negative utopia of art.
Still to be written
6. Cognitive Sinergy
(The battle of signifiers)
BRIARS and PLUMES
Appears the CAULDRON
ARCHAIC HEINOUS ritual
YEARNING for revealing
The LINEAGE of the soul
ARCHAIC... HEINOUS
RELENTLESS is the DELUGE
The SQUALL loves the WHIRLWIND
VIRTUOSITY rests QUIESCENT
X-RAY through the UNSOUND mind
"within a red riot of brains
What is taking place is... "
DELUGE FASTNESS
LINEAGE RELENTLESS
NEURAL
ORDEAL
YEARNING for revealing
The LINEAGE of the soul
ARCHAIC... HEINOUS
The ZEPHYR upon earth ENCROACHES
A JOLT to the ISLET FASTNESS
Such a NEURAL GRASSLAND
I TRESPASS on MEANINGLESSNESS
"within a red riot of brains
What is taking place is... "
The CAULDRON spews out souls
Seemingly KINDLED
By ORDEAL holy rising ghouls
"...the battle of signifiers
The battle of signifiers "
[Words in CAPITALS selected from the dictionary before being connected (Joe)]
7. Snowfall
Roaming through the dark
And calm air of the night
As nature cries
Frozen tears sway down
To the tepid heart of earth...
(You never heard
The cries of earth fall down!)
...where their freezing kiss
Or natural heat prevails
They sing their hymn
The sweetest ever heard
You never heard
The hymn to life
That snow-flakes sing while dying!
Snowfall
Like tunes of falling frozen tears
When the coldness prevails
Through her eyes of gold
We shall enjoy the whiteness...
...shall enjoy the snow
Roaming through the dark
And calm air of the night
As nature cries
Frozen tears sway down
To the tepid heart of earth...
(You never heard
The cries of earth fall down)
Winds clean the sky
Spreading all the stars
And sweep the tears...
...and sweep the tears away
So nature burns
Moments in green
Before crying out her pain again
Like tunes of falling frozen tears
Hear the snow fall
8. A Gout From The Scar
Mist blurred my eyes
Fear blocked my ears
I could not see
Inmost atrocities
Words...
Rip wide inner wounds
If spoken out like swords
As the prince spoke out daggers
Voices are too weak
To perceive secret sanity
As to be fault
As i still stand open-mouthed
So existence turns
Into a deadly sequence
Of pains overwhelming
Their own good precedents
Only I see my scars
Ripped again
I sustain my past expiating pain
Wounds seem to be healed
But memory Still
Makes'em bleed
Time...
Time does not heal
When wounds are so real
And a heart dies alone
See this
Gout from the scar
Sign of
My inner death
9. Comet... And Her Trail Of Spiritual Dust
Orchids of a deeper green
Serene, over the blackest sea
As the eyelids stand open
And the sky plunges in, reflected
The spell is cast in the eyes
Mine, foreseeing next passage
Of such a fashinating beauty
Only blindness can grasp and love
Because the comet passes
Shining faster than a wink
Leaving the green orchids
Drifting in a stormy sea
Courageous waves sweep over
Falling like rain drops
Down, till the eyes be shut
And another spell cast...
...foreseeing next passage
As RAIN fills in the SKY
SHE spread her HAPPINESS
Sailing over this SEA of TEARS
Trespassing the NEXT to the EVER
...rain
...sky
...she
...happiness
...sea
...tears
...next
...ever
10. Never Let Me Down
[originally by Depeche Mode]
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
Never let me down, never let me down
Never let me down, never let me down
See the stars they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight
