1. House Full Of Colours
“Chaos is the soil in my house full of colors”
I own a house full of colours
None are black, none are white
It was a haunted house before I claimed ownership
To break through self-imposed boredom (self-imposed)
Suffocation from stagnated life-energy (life-energy)
Let us talk about sex in all its multitudes (in all its multitudes)
Just to loosen up and let the energy flow (energyflow)
Roots which are not dependent on certainty
Can find its nourishment moment to moment
Chaos as the soil
Space to move
Room for expression
Choice to be still
Incentive for life
A space for death
Chaos is the soil
In my house full of colours
Space to move
In my house full of colours
Philosophical dilemmas left behind
(In my house full of colours)
2. Not Separate
“The I of Isolation
In prison, enjoys suffering
The I, interdependent
Shall transcend itself”
Teachers in the school of life
I am not separate from you
Lovers, explorers of intimacy
Always in my heart
All those projected, projected upon
Innocence and intelligence made me cry
From my arrogance and fear
Those whose actions where rightfully judged
You too helped to sharpen intelligence (although you´re killing it)
The I of isolation
In prison, enjoys suffering
The I recognizing interdependence
Shall transcend itself
Be proud to admit
That you are a human being
Sensitive, capable of love and intimacy
What more can be given?
Be proud to admit
That you are a human being
Sensitive
What more can be given?
The I of isolation
In prison, enjoys suffering
The I, interdependent
Shall transcend itself
3. Sexforce
“The sexforce shall destroy the normal
Celebrating the unrestrained natural”
Hi-tech in war
Neanderthal in love [this line is the title of one of the chapters in the book “Eros Unreedemed” by Dieter Duhm]
Electing unhappy people
To represent their unhappiness [This line is a close paraphrasing from the book “Only Fear Dies” by Barry Long]
What can be done but honesty?
Revelation, revel in openness
The personal leading to the transpersonal
The impersonal leading to death
There´s love for you and a love for myself
Leading to a source
Transpersonal and all-pervasive
Love is an allowance for ourselves
To see clearly
Today as tomorrow
The heart shall beat its “fallen cause”
Despite it all
And the sexforce shall destroy the normal
Celebrating the unrestrained natural
Uninhibited sexforce
Opening the divine
Which lives in us
Today as tomorrow
The heart shall beat its “fallen cause”
Despite it all
Confused by distractions
But never severed from its source
Never severed from its source [2x]
And the sexforce shall destroy the normal
Celebrating the unrestrained natural
Rise to embrace
All that is inherent
All that culture is not
The personal leading to the transpersonal
The impersonal leading to death
For we shall live in flames
Knowing our divine intensity
Our only obligation
4. The Greatest Offender
“In silence and solitude
The unreal is offended”
Truth, the greatest offender
Lies accepted willingly
All my victims
Surrogate reasons to live
Introspection, the greatest offender
Threatening existence
Freedom, from within
Threatening all
The lies, so rational
Empty of opportunities
Truth, the greatest offender
Lies accepted willingly
All my victims
Surrogate reasons to live
Surrogate reasons to live
Your cries
For more than the known
The fear
Of the same, the letting go
Rise beyond [3x]
How much offense is needed (Rise!)
To see?
One moment of intensity
Or years of misery
Choice, an offense
But, responsibility is not much
There’s no choice
Just as much delay as you want
If you try, this time
Opening the door
You will find
In silence and solitude
The unreal is offended
Planning its resurrection
A surrogate existence
Introspection, the greatest offender
Threatening existence
Freedom, from within
Threatening all
The lies, so rational
Empty of opportunities
And the lies that we feed
This time
Let go of beliefs
Let go of all beliefs
And the lies that we feed
This time
Let go of all beliefs
5. Ride The Waves Of Emotion
“You become so beautiful, bliss runs up your spine”
Your smile, just let it go
And reach for your own truth
Your resistance is your fuel
Another mask parade passing by my view
I had no intent to join
The feeling of staying unborn
Is from what I mourn
Reaching for my truth
Reclaim eternal youth
All that was left condoned
It shall now be done
Replace lies and subsistence
It’s always on “my side”
With bloodwarm persistence
All I see, distorted, distorted
All that was left condoned
It shall now be done
Why don´t you look up to see
Into the infinite hole
That shatters your view now?
Butchers, devours
All
And these insipid things
Will be seen anew
Ride, sacred struggle, until eternity
I came to see myself in so many colors (so many colors)
And it had no fucking end (no fucking end)
Too occupied to see who is really watching? (Who is watching?)
Could it be that which is my friend? (And my end)
Ride the waves of emotion
Move with them, a sacred fight [2x]
So many times, the same alley
Only new textures
Until it disappears
Until it disappears
I came to see myself in so many colors
And it had no fucking end
Too occupied to see who is really watching?
Could it be that which is my friend?
Annihilation of the gross subsistence
Right now
So many times, the same alley
Only new textures
Until it disappears
Ride the waves of emotion
You become so beautiful
Bliss runs up your spine
Ride the waves of emotion
You are so beautiful
When allowed to be alive
Ride the waves of emotion
Ride the waves of emotion
Annihilation of the gross subsistence
Annihilate right now
Right now
6. Rest In Chaos
“I kill to rise
Above the dulling, comforting lies
And to rest, finally, in the vastness of this life”
The will to live resurfaces
Amidst frogs, a wolf and a flower
Rays painting the void of walls
Gone is the commentary
This is life
Every day, in every way
Do not succumb
Unreasonable joy
Rejoicing in this chaos
Be unreasonable
Be unreasonable
I kill to rise
Above the dulling, comforting lies
And to rest, finally, in the vastness of this life
Rest and chaos
Rest in chaos
A dull betrayal, not to care about you
Feeding spoons of hollowness
But the ability to suffer the rightful pain
Shall now evoke my anger and joy, my wonderful aliveness
Can you afford to give up on yourself?
Seek the life just beneath!
For you have the strength to embrace vulnerability
Shaken to the ground knowing you have lived
Be unreasonable
All right!
Rest in chaos
7. The King Of Life
“For I shall reign as the king of life”
In the silence, I
Sense the pain that is
Such a burden, connecting us all
It is time to be free
I promise everything
It is time to be free
For this time I will
Not betray myself
In the silence you´ll see me
As one
As I confess
It’s not a sin
To be alive
To breathe this air
I shall reign
As the king of life
Presence is real, not concealed
It pulsates until this silence ends
In these times, stumbling through this hell
Nothing compared to the silence I crave
I confess
It’s not a crime to be alive
To breathe this air
Declare that we are here
8. Exposing The Good Citizens
“The real exposure shall be of yourself”
You´re so good and so unaware
Of your own shadow, but you claim to care
And as you talk, you drain all life
No need to look, behind the horizon
To hear the voices, desperate for you
It is time we get back to ourselves
And leave the eternal commentary
Reading the news, how is your mood today?
Conditioned by all these fucking interests
Which drags you to the grave
But the real exposure shall be of yourself
Good citizens, unaware of their shadows
Apathetic, lifeless and grey
Horrid acts, celebrated opportunities
To strengthen the ”moral”, connected in judgment and fear
While you kill all life by your cowardliness
Time again, to pretend, that you care, but truth is you´re never here
Lost in the story of today, of tomorrow, of your grave
As you drink with the dead
You butcher the living
But you “really do care”
No way!
Time again, to pretend, that you care, but truth is you´re never here
Lost in the story of today, of tomorrow, of your grave
As you drink with the dead
You butcher the living
Good citizens must be exposed
In all of us, the greatest crime
Transgenerational, explosive lifeforce enveloped by social dogma
Shall burst and shatter misery into ecstacy
Solutions you fear, because they will kill you
(Solutions I fear, because they will kill me)
Collectively imposed impotence
Embraced as culture
Aggressive weakness equaling power
Beliefs that prevent man to know his divine intensity
And the heart shall be unveiled
Free from culture, free from beliefs
Give in to no one and everyone, my friend
The choicelessness of choice
Only experience
9. Feast Upon The Illusory
“Perpetuate the struggles which you crave to hate”
I shall feast upon all that is false
As forever, upholding the illusion
Which I call myself
And the struggles which I crave to hate
Crave to hate
I shall feast upon
That which could have been myself
As I am dying
In this denying
Of all that contains in itself a reward, meaning and purpose
What I was not taught
Transparent, self-explanatory and shattering
Wiping the smear off my face, the rotten stench of the fog I induced
To instill some sense of meaning – ever-threatened, just illusion
See the patterns beyond this, which cannot die
From where I come, to where I will go
Shattering mob of dreams, hopes and screams
Quicksand life, fantasies, drowning sweetness
Smear on my face
Succumbed to the fog I induced
A fragile sense of meaning
Ever-threatened, just illusion, just illusion
Perpetuate
The struggles you crave to hate [2x]
I shall feast upon all that is false
As forever, upholding the illusion
Which I call myself
And the struggles which I crave to hate
Crave to hate
I shall feast upon
That which could have been myself
As I am dying
In this denying
Of all that contains in itself a reward, meaning and purpose
What I was not taught
Transparent, self-explanatory and shattering
Wiping the smear off my face, the rotten stench of the fog I induced
To instill some sense of meaning – ever-threatened, just illusion
See the patterns beyond this, which cannot die
From where I come, to where I will go
Perpetuate
The struggles you crave to hate
Until you non-exist [2x]
Smear on your face
The fog you induced
A fragile sense of meaning
Ever-threatened
Non-exist
10. Birth Through Loss
“If I open my heart
Does it hurt as much
As the ways in which I kill myself?”
Delusions of a meaningful tomorrow
From today’s stupidity or a miracle?
Glued to a cart and its medicated bull
“Freedom, individuality” – a consumerist trance
Progressive stances, no obligation
Reify all that you don’t see
Drown in the pleasures of not feeling yourself
Driven, beaten, no one at home
No one at home
Tomorrow will come wrathfully
All attempts have failed
Screaming, more of the same
The nature of identity
But if I open my heart (if I open)
Does it hurt as much (as much)
As the ways in which I kill myself?
The ways in which I veil myself
Vacuity, our core
Veiled by sores
Feel so good when not alone
Together in misery
Our common insanity
The inability to express ourelves
Meaningless respect
“Freedom, individuality” – a consumerist trance
Drown in the pleasures of not feeling yourself
Driven, beaten, no one at home
Screams could purify
Like a river
Express, let go
See what arrives
Not what we expected
All the rejected
If I open my heart
(If I open)
Does it hurt as much
As the ways in which I kill myself?
If I open my heart
Always a time for change – now
But without willingness, it´s just another form of violence
A sea of fear and possibilites
Relentless, benevolent, losing all and nothing
But if I open my heart (if I open)
Does it hurt as much (as much)
As the ways in which I kill myself?
The ways in which I veil myself
The cancer of the mind
Suffocation, in control
Fucked up deities
Praised within this shell
As I open my heart
It does not hurt as much
As the ways in which I killed myself
[in the background: "There is love" [3x]]
For there is love
11. To Ring The Bells Of Truth
“Only the heart can see
Extremes where they meet”
Standing, in the cold winter morning
Warm, from what remains
Of me and you
I shall ring the bells of truth
Against all denial
I shall ring the bells of truth
Yeah
Only the heart can see
Extremes where they meet
Shivers in my body
From what I know to be true
Lives in me
I shall ring the bells of truth
Against all denial
I shall ring the bells of truth
Yeah
12. Politically Incorrect Experiences
“Delude yourself with your control”
We are many who have politically incorrect experiences
Deemed violent for speaking our truth, not beliefs
You’re fearful of true honesty and respect
We are committed to not diverting ourselves into labyrinth games
It is a crime not to speak out
Of the things experienced against our will
And it shall threaten you, hypocrites of democracy
Reality, mirror of life
Parts you picked, cut from the roots
Shall be blown by the voices of truth – we all have one
Parts you picked
Shall be blown by truth
Your war against subjectivity is the war against yourself
Life itself is politically incorrect
Chaotic palette of creation and destruction
Delude yourself with your control
The parts you picked are cut from the roots
It shall be blown by the voices of truth
Politically incorrect
No one is exempt
13. Educated For Enslavement
“Dull, beaten, educated
Your will has been consumed”
Knowledge separated from the lived life (the life unlived)
Mind separated from body
Cancer trying to unite and bridge the gap
Education with no introspection
You know everything but yourself
Your knowledge has no roots
Relying on external authorities
You are helpless, irresponsible
You can be used
You will be used
Educated for enslavement
Defuse the battery, the human being
Education for the monoculture mind
Distorted lives
Flashy colors nothing else
Education
For slavery, lifeforce consumed
Shout, in reactivity
No will
For there is no will
Helplessness so strong
Flashy colours
Multidimensional existence contracting
Fading into grey
One display more vulgar than the next
How much do you need to see your own death?
Educated for enslavement
Abuse yourself and everyone else
Rape unknowingly, you are not to blame
Distorted lives
Flashy colours nothing else
Education
For slavery, lifeforce consumed
Helplessness so strong
Dull, beaten, educated
For slavery
Your will has been consumed
Your will has been consumed
Your will, consumed
Knowledge separated from the lived life
Mind separated from body
Do you dare to bridge the gap?
Do you even care?
Educated for enslavement
Abuse yourself and everyone else
Rape unknowingly, you are not to blame
Blameless, blamelessness
False respect, false respect
As we blur everything
The perpetuation – perpetuate their game
All the smiles – smiling as you die
We’ll have to educate ourselves
Unquestioneable lived life
Argumentation revealing foolishness
