PSALM LYRICS

1. Submission

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

Teach me how to hate
Dragging your lies
Dragging your most secret sins and I
Can't see through your
Can't see through your
Blinded hubris
Well disguised in true love
At age five, can't break these chains
No control
Mother, father
Shepherds
Blinded by their own weakness
Fearless indoctrination
Ignoring the regression
Needless incarceration
I'll swallow the submission
Shatter my dreams
Drown them in your
Selfish vision of one's existence
See no shame, bury blame
Devour me, in your arms
Help me!
My fate in you hands
My hate now unwinds
Blanked mind, burn my tears
Why imprisoning me, inside your fortress?
You just wanna play God
Ignoring your conscience
Feed on my youth
Spit on my soul
Speechless
Hopeless
Why could it not just vanish now?
Bloodless
Quench your thirst
Rip my heart right from its chest
What you are
What you killed inside
Is what I hate most from now on
Hope you soon will measure your deeds
Are you happy now?
Still it's too late to crawl back now
Are you happy now?
My own blood, Judas kiss
My own blood, sweet sweet bliss
Cold wind now blows, grinning scarecrows
Black seeds now grow, heart breathes below

2. Walk In A No-Love Scene

[lyrics by K. Lerminiau]

Born with a precious fear of love
Grow with a precious fear of love
Die with a famous feel of love
I'm gonna show!
Just love
We are blind now
Save your passions, don't be an evil son
Build nations
Draw the line upon your system
Take the time to use your patience
Watch around the sky
Watch around the sky
Walk
To the serpents
'Til you find them
Start your defence
Born with a precious fear of love you cannot show
Grow with a precious fear of love you wanna show
Die with a famous feel of love I'm gonna show
My cries will be known
So it will be my own joy
My cries will be known
Known!
These eyes, full of sickness
On his better hatred
No! We are not
We are not alone in this world
I believe I give you love
Stay with me, I will give you love
No-love-scene
No-hope-scene
No-love-scene
No more scenes
My cries will be known
Your lies will be shown
No more walking in a no-love-scene!

3. Butterfly Suicide

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

Please, don't take my innocence away
Peel my heart from its youth
Expose it to love, expose it to hate, the worse enemies of happiness.
Expose it to hope, expose it to fear, the worse enemies of forgiveness.
Don't show your frightening wounds
Closure of harmlessness
Poor fool, you can't turn back time.
Sad wings of destiny
The butterfly is dying inside
He's cripple, he's old, he can't fly no more
The crows are growing inside
They're black, they're vicious, they're rotten to the core
Brutal transition
Open his eyes, youth is now obsolete
Helpless, youthfulness
He'll soon be life's pitiful apprentice
I don't want to become like them, you hear me?
I can't be like them, I'm a better man!
I'm so scared of the man I'll destroy, I'll become
So scared of pain I will cause to others
You want me to forget my past
You're telling me
How to grow up
How to fit right in
This forsaken world
How to crush me
Annihilate me
Butterfly suicide
Butterfly suicide
I can't believe you
- You can't avoid me
I just despise you
- You are here with me
I'm not a scapegoat
- Don't be your saviour
I cannot trust you
- But I will rule you too
Paying the highest
Toll of what man can
Pay in such a short
Notice of time, why?
Can't you see why
My desperate cries
Can't be held down?
It is eating me alive
Why can't the butterfly just die inside?

4. Judgment's Burden

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

Hurt you with my selfishness
This is where character is built
Trust me, son
Choke you with my covetousness
This is where youth's battles are lost
Push you face down in the mud
When you're weak
Just call me, dear child
Day after day I'm fading
Into your dark embrace and I
Cannot breathe
Your accusing eyes I feel
See these stains on my virgin dreams
Proud of your work?
I'm fading…hate me!
Don't break me with your love
Don't tell me where to go
Down to my knees
What you expect from me I cannot give
Lock me up, judgment's burden
Crucify me on the cross of lost hope
Silence! Keep your damn lies!
What you pretend to be, I can't believe
Lock me up, judgment's burden
Mesmerize me with your sore illusions
Silence! Open your eyes!
I'll burn your white flag (burn it down)
I yearn for disgrace
I'll burn your white flag (burn it down)
The tide must turn, dear (just watch me)
On the dawn of life
My lips are sealed
I feel so numb
Ignorance is bliss
On the edge of strength
Your plans revealed
I feel so alone
Ignorance is bliss
Break the chains, cut the veins
Frustration, delusion
Found my pride, my own guide
What you see is what you'll get
Your pawn is dead
Keep your damn lies!
Open your eyes!
Dread the free man, your new child
Try to understand my demand
I need more space, new face
See the dice roll, pay your toll
Cradle of lost sympathy
Floats on the sea of new dreams
Blind faith I lost in you
My own judge I will be
Take a last look
I'll cut the thread! (save yourself)
I'll cut the thread!

5. The Flesh Is Weak

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

I just want to be loved
Rules are made to be broken
The flesh is weak, you know
Onto the shores of debauchery
Erotic human plague
My wicked catharsis
Erotic human plague
Exorcise my demons
Carnal sins, pleasures of the flesh
I need to free myself
Boundaries are overthrown still I need to cross the next line
Yield purity, no redemption
Yield purity, fight temptation
Smother the guilt with ignorance
Treasure biblical offence
Gasping for air
Aching desires
Losing reason
Aching desires
Open the gates, trust the new voice
Gasping for air
Aching desires
New era of lust
Aching desires

6. The Vital Art Of Pretending

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

I'm afraid, I can't stand this loneliness
I need your touch, fuel of life
Look into the eyes of the faint-hearted
I need your heart, fuel of life
I need your love, fuel of life
Don't you turn away, come closer now
Soon there won't be a turning back
Point of emotional no-return
Walls closing in, close you eyes
You think you know who I am but you
Can't see through the web of lies
Cause I have betrayed, lied and deceived
Just like all, all of you
This is the game we're all meant to play
Take a step into my world
Lie, we must lie to meet love, conquer hearts
Dangerous, ominous
Lie, we must lie
Or die alone
Dangerous, ominous
I ain't the worst kind
Misunderstood
Dangerous, ominous
I'll play 'til the bitter end
Let me drag you into my world
I just need your trust
Let me drag you into my world
I shall see myself in your eyes
Or I'd be lost
In nothingness
You think you know
What I've done?
You think you know
What's behind this mask?
Honesty, you believe in honesty?
You should run away
Let me be everything you ever wish I'd be
You should be more careful what you wish for
Lost in psychotic war, you will fall
Love, you're in love
Lost, now you're lost
You're roaming on the edge of thorns
Doors closed, you're mine now
Doors closed, cycle ends
The place where you belong
Is right here with me
Fill my heart with some hope
We all need some light
You believe in false Messiahs
But we're all clowns
Dangerous, ominous
Please, don't cry
I'm worth so much more
You believe in this utopia
But we're all frauds
Dangerous, ominous
Please, don't cry
You ain't seen nothing yet
[Repeat first & second verse]
Closer to your heart
I live in my own lie
Closer to your end
You live in my own hell

7. Passion Feasts On Purity

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

Locked in, trapped in
This prison of guilt
Boundaries are gone
First step in no man's land
Can't love you, no
Can't touch, can't feel
Ain't gonna survive this ride
What if my life was yours?
Between passion and reason
Must choose between two hearts
I'm confused inside
I feel like giving up my life
And my past
I can't see clearly
Must take a step back
Must try to forget
You can't just throw away what you have built
I'm just not worth it, believe me
And I'll never be able to face her again
The woman who sees only me
Taking a wrong turn would
Annihilate a beloved one's heart
Please, you have to let me go
I'm just not ready to start over again
Turning point of my life and yours
We must erase it all
Don't try to reach me again
Please forget what we had
You're gone
Now I breathe
You're gone
Now it hurts
Truth I cannot tell
Love, it feeds on me
Don't look back
Buried love
Empty shell
Don't look back
Time will heal
Dying heart
Life's back on the right track

8. Eden's Crucifixion

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

Bitterness, my loyal friend
I shot you in my veins
She chose for another life
Where the hell did it go wrong?
Some feelings will never die
My last breath will whisper your name
It hurts to admit but I've lost track
Don't want no help, for this is my grief
Crucified
Labyrinth of chimeras
Crucified
Euphoric dance of insanity
Crucified
Grand opening at the theatre of loss
Crucified
I must make the apostasy of you
Ego's bleeding
Eden's burning
Ripped of pride, ripped of self-esteem
Naked in the freezing cold
I took my scars, I've carried on
Why can't I just forget your name?
Dreamer, I'm shattered inside
Stronger, yet dead inside
I used to see a glimpse of paradise through your eyes
Nevermore
Shall I be the same but I don't hate you
How did love die in your heart?
How did you grow apart from me?
All these questions I can't answer
I guess I'll never know
What could have been my existence
But life goes on just the same, unforgiving
Now your name fades away
I'm drifting off in disarray
Now your kiss fades away
You were never meant to stay
Bless your soul, darling
Just forget all of this
Don't you look behind
To see the fallen angel
You've enlightened my heart and my soul
This is the memory of you I have kept
I hope you'll remember me somehow
Though Eden's dead and buried

9. Ephemeral

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

Dust sows branches somehow passing
Through black water which embraces
My weakened feet, my heart turns still
Roots grip my arms slowly
Losing my breath slowly
I feel sorry for myself
Satisfy me, never trust me again!
Walls seem dry
Yet insecure
I'm digging a hole and I prepare my end
You think you will save us?
I don't deserve a place in your heaven
Can't stand the smell of my own fear, no more
I don't deserve this prison of treason
Can't stand the smell of my own fear, no more
Staring, threatening, vulgar pile of stones
Weeping, mourning, colder, it chills my bones
Facing each day, try to deny
Playing this part
Can't take it no more
I feel sorry for myself
Satisfy me, never trust me again!
Now all lies subside
And I realize
How I lived my life
And this can't be true!
And I
I just realized
My world crumbles
Facing each day, just too hard
Try to deny, I can't force it!
Playing this part, it's over now!
Reason left me, I can't take it!
All hope is gone
I'm already dead

10. Self-Conjuration

[lyrics by K. Lerminiau]

I,
I whisper loud down the ground
There's a light that blinds my sight
Thinking about Mary's sound
Pictures stay drawn in my mind
I shoot myself with love!
Now, I left the world behind me
I,
I left the ones
The ones who loved me
I,
I let my life in better hands
I,
Don't want another
Another chance
I shoot myself with love!
Just to watch me dying!
Why I choose to die?
Why I spend my time with drugs inside?
Why I believe in broken lies?
'Cause there are demons in my pride
Flying on the wings of sadness
My tears fall into the sea
Through the hills of kindness
Don't try to save my last breath
I, I shoot myself with love,
Watch me dying
I, I shoot myself with love, watch me dying
I shoot myself with love
Make it go away!
May this life decay!
No more sacrifice
No more hidden lies
Smell the bullet in my head
Die with poison in my head

11. The Agony Show

[lyrics by T. Dossogne]

I left the abhorred false hopes I sought
Surreal creation of beliefs
Like a crimson sunset in hell
Dominion of deepest sorrow
My raped faith has now consumed my energy
And unleashed my morbid fantasies.
The final ovation of life's sanctity
The fearless wolves were always feasting on my passions
Somehow I couldn't possibly fit in
All my dreams were slain, devoured by
Mediocrity
Hypocrisy
I cried, I tried, I swear I tried
To conform to this
World's rules
All of you who came to mourn this pathetic fool, please don't hate me
Swansong for the faint-hearted
Now as I lay to rest
My mortal coil is long gone now
Still my spirit remains whole
Help me retrieve love
This is my last wish
Help me fear no more
My time is running out
I'd like to talk to you one last time
And try to explain, ease your pain
But I am powerless
Twisted lacerated dreams
A carrion left to rot
From dust to dust
The ultimate cleansing of vain dignity
Abortion of existence
I can see the reaper's scythe
Negation of persistence
I'll soon take my final exit
Bright light surrounds me
All of my life flashes now before my eyes
Life's abyss sets me free
The bleeding of my heart has finally ended
Go on priest,
Speak out your last sermon
Deliver me your last words
My path has come to an end now, I have to…
(leave)

12. Closure

[lyrics by T. Dossogne & S. Austin]

Bite the hand that feeds on fear
Waiting for the night's sorrow
I'm the clown of black and blue
If they shoot that's why I'll shoot
Finally free
Feel love nor hate
Worked so hard and feels so good
Lived my life misunderstood
Why I killed a world so good?
Too bad I'm misunderstood
Wish you were dead…
Wish you were dead…
Motherless
Fatherless
Forever seems so close
Sure you'll feel pain and sorrow
It only lasts for so long
I commit to human fate
This is how I like to live
Bigger than you and I, once again
I always die!
Blind journey into unreal dementia
I'm left with no choice but letting go
I am safe, the eye is open
I am safe, the eye is open
Wish you were dead!
Wish you were dead!
Blind journey into unreal dementia
I'm left with no choice but letting go
Lost all my senses
