Gothic Queen Come cover me with comfort and keep watch when I sleep Don’t ask me for my causes †Still waters run deep This overwhelming sadness and this everlasting harm Won’t have a chance to catch me as I rest in your arms My gothic queen she said †Kill me with love †My gothic queen she said †I won’t survive this night Before the break of day †Fill me with love †My gothic queen she said Love me till I die Lead me into temptation †I didn’t come to resist Give healing for this bleeding heart p†I want it like this This overwhelming torture and this everlasting fear Won’t have the chance to break me ‘cause I’m strong when I’m here My gothic queen she said †Kill me with love †My gothic queen she said †I won’t survive this night Before the break of day †Fill me with love †My gothic queen she said Love me till I die Give healing for this bleeding heart †Give healing for this bleeding heart of mine Give healing for this bleeding heart †Give healing for this heart you broke tonight Give healing for this bleeding heart †I love you was the very last she said
Pain I am begging for protection † I am praying but I find no quarter here I’m not ready yet I’m confused and so unhappy And I’m lonesome though you said I wouldn’t my dear Time for reflection † Take a gloomy view of life † Time for perfection And you talk things to death but you speak without saying why Pain † In my bond of love † Pain † Is what you’re dreaming of † Pain † But you’re never satisfied All you want is pain † Beloved enemy † Pain † To a high degree † Pain † Is that all you give tonight I am crying for good reasons † I am listening but I only hear a tirade It’s not over yet so it still demands an answer I’ll be burning because your fiend is here to stay Time for reflection † Take a gloomy view of life † Time for perfection And you talk things to death but you speak without saying why Pain † In my bond of love † Pain † Is what you’re dreaming of † Pain † But you’re never satisfied All you want is pain † Beloved enemy † Pain † To a high degree † Pain † Is that all you give tonight All you want is † All you give is † All I feel is † Pain
If I Fail The sea is rough † The spindrift cold † The bridge is under fire The master left the sinking ship as waves were rising higher † Unbaptized † Unconverted Just a henchman on the verge of throwing high aims overboard to feed the surge But if I fail or if I fall † I’ll be aid and consolation † If I range or if I crawl † I will shelter you my love If I starve or if I sear † I’ll be faith and inspiration † Raise my hope and ease the fear † I’ll be there to back you up The sand like glow † The desert wide † The sun truncated brains The well dried up and thoughts are like a caravan in chains † Bedraggled and ahungered Just a traveler in search of confidence and devotion before it burns But if I fail or if I fall † I’ll be aid and consolation † If I range or if I crawl † I will shelter you my love If I starve or if I sear † I’ll be faith and inspiration † Raise my hope and ease the fear † I’ll be there to back you up A lightning strike on killing fields † The soil is soaked with blood A deafening burst † The smell of death and faces blurred with mud † Ingenuous † Blameless A peace seeker in the jam † But I’m stuck in here till judgment day on ruined land
Forgiven Why do you talk when you should listen Why do you rape when you should pay Where do you stand when we’re assigned to good or bad May your sins be forgiven half an hour before the devil knows you’re dead May all your sins be forgiven before the devil knows you’re dead love Why do you plunge when you should stand up Why do you kill when you should praise What do they say those insane voices in your head May your soul arrive in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you’re dead May all your sins be forgiven before the devil knows you’re dead love May all your sins be forgiven before you’re dead and gone May all your sins be forgiven Rest In Grace A picture of you On Columbus Day A picture of you Full of joy full of life A smile on your face So beautiful And I don’t know how to go on but I’ll try Rest in peace † Rest in grace And the tears roll down my face You took my love and I’m left on my own You’re gone too soon or I’m too late You know that I can’t wait to be with you I’m counting the days Rest in grace I gaze at the skies Are you watching me Look over the things You collected over years I walk through your room It still smells of you And I don’t know where to move now so I will stay right here Rest in peace † Rest in grace And the tears roll down my face You took my love and I’m left on my own You’re gone too soon or I’m too late You know that I can’t wait to be with you I’m counting the days Rest in grace Every crash every low Every high every breakdown Every minute we shared was a great gift I know now You’ll be with me in everything I do Forever I’ll remember you
Trail Of Thorns When heaven cries and days are grey and it’s hard to breathe When blossom’s red is fading black and summer leaves When songs of hope are whining low and moods go with the flow † It’s not the end it’s just a stage It’s not too late † Here’s your verve † you’ll get what you deserve Come light the dark around us † Come be our beacon shining bright Come light the dark around us † Believe me somewhere down the line Will come the day a star will rise and you’ll be out of reach When life’s a trail of thorns walk on and don’t you lose belief † Don’t you lose belief You know the rain you know the shade and promises In being left and being lone you’re a specialist When songs of hope are whining low † It’s time for you to know † This is the start of something great It’s not too late † No more hurt † So catch what you deserve Come light the dark around us † Come be our beacon shining bright Come light the dark around us † Believe me somewhere down the line Will come the day a star will rise and you’ll be out of reach When life’s a trail of thorns walk on and don’t you lose belief † Don’t you lose belief On this trail of thorns † Never lose belief
My Dear Recipe From golden cups and silver spoons † More than weight is what you lose A beating heart and lovely skin † That’s the least you’re giving in † Aspiration in your eyes You’re offender and sacrifice † You’ll be famous for one day † I susurrate I want you to sigh for me † I want you to try for me † I want you to lie for me † I want you to steep I want you to sigh for me † I want you to fry for me † I want you to die for me My dear recipe The scent of herbage is in the air † You deserve my special care Arrange the trimmings and lift my mask † This goes far beyond their grasp † Decant the red wine Boost the heat † Oh no this dinner’s got no repeat † You and me we wanted this † A final kiss I want you to sigh for me † I want you to try for me † I want you to lie for me † I want you to steep I want you to sigh for me † I want you to fry for me † I want you to die for me † My dear recipe I want you to sigh for me † I want you to try for me † I want you to lie for me † I want you to steep I want you to sigh for me † I want you to fry for me † I want you to die for me Once you beat your meat That’s the way I love you † That’s the way I want you † That’s the way I’ll have you I like it crispy my dear
Torture Me There is no prevarication and refugees can remigrate A sad world is strictly healing and my breed swims in love and not in hate But that’s just how you wish it would be † That’s just what you’re hoping for † Don’t wake me up Life’s deeper when I dream † Don’t you torture me † Don’t wake me up † You can’t hurt me when I sleep Don’t you torture me The last word is still unspoken and our skin is still unhurt Our depression on vacation and our hopes lie in wad and not in dirt But that’s just how you wish it would be † That’s just what you’re hoping for † Don’t wake me up Life’s deeper when I dream † Don’t you torture me † Don’t wake me up † You can’t hurt me when I sleep Don’t you torture me The big scars are not existent and our system is retrieved There is lowdown for the pilgrims ‘cause our god is a host and not a thief
Time To Go It didn’t last much longer than the famous blink of an eye And all that’s left are memories and a feeble rest of life I make my peace and think of all those yesteryears we shared December daylight fades away the syringe is prepared My breath is getting shorter † My moves are getting slow † My light is turning pale † I know it’s time to go So join me for the last mile and stay here till the end I’m tired but I am scared now † Give me just a little strength No farewell in the hallway † Just hold me till I close my eyes leave from here A quiet room † Four tiled walls and people dressed in green I couldn’t tell if behind their masks they commiserate with me I turn my head † I see your tears as they’re sparkling in the light My body’s numb † Come give me some courageousness tonight My mind is turning slower † My heart is beating low † My lids are heavy-weight † I know it’s time to go So join me for the last mile and stay here till the end I’m tired but I am scared now † Give me just a little strength No farewell in the hallway † Just hold me till I close my eyes leave from here † I leave from here I’m just a little scared now † So stay with me till the end No farewell in the hallway † Just hold me till I close my eyes leave from here
from Pain, Love & Poetry:
This Is The Day / I believe we belong to another place * I believe we resurge if we try * You and me we will see all the red lights in the dark * Such a beautiful shine round this beautiful heart * This is the day * We get away from torture * We get away from harm and rid of all our fears * This is the day we’re going down with pleasure * We pass away in love * Don’t be afraid my dear * I believe that you touch my insanity * I believe that I die in your arms * You and me oh we seem to have blessings in disguise * Such a beautiful tear in this beautiful eye * This is the day
The Last Waltz / I wanna wade your sea * I wanna name your source * I wanna touch your ceiling * I wanna change your course * I wanna turn your big wheel * I wanna shift your view * I wanna feel your last breath on my skin and leave with you * For a last waltz * Just before you go * A last waltz * And then you leave me I know * I’m gonna break your silence * I’m gonna shape your glance * I’m gonna train your motions yes I’ll do * I’ll make you dance * For a last waltz * Just before you go * A last waltz * And then you leave me I know * Come alive come close come here * Into my arms my dear * For a last waltz *
Teach Me To Love / I want you to hurt me * But it’s all just a shade of the dark * I’m afraid * Mourning rain * And the one I left behind * I want you to hurt me * But I don’t want to fall in mirage * Plastered grey * Frowning strength * But your faith is what I find * If you teach me to love * If you teach me to breath * I’ll paint the beauty * For all your needs * If you teach me to love * Promise you'll be stronger then * And I’ll burn you with a love that never shades * I want you to hurt me * I’m a casualty of your touch * A pierced dove * All alone * With your crimson venting slow * I want you to hurt me * ‘Cause my pain has drifted away * Blinking calm * But I feel * Dust of salt from down below *
Sleeping My Day Away / Mumbling goodmorning & raising my head * A bad breath kiss to my pillow pet * I take a look at the day turns & stay in bed * Open my eyes when the day have died * I turned the world and I slept allright * Now my daymare is over I zip my shirt tight * Oh lord won't you bless this night * From the pale lips of a youth who lay * I'm sleeping my day away * And when the night comes to the city I say: I'm sleeping my day away * Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say: I'm sleeping my day away * After dark is the game I play * I'm sleeping my day away * When my dreams begin I'd be proud to be letting you in * With a smile on my face I guide our dreamboat in * So if you wanna travel along with me * You better sleep tight the rest of the day * You see I could be a sleeper it's not rest I lack * 'Cause I hit the sack when the suns coming back *
Bloodmoon / You are clean * You are sweet * You are all I ever wanted * Come to me * You are soft * You are so kind * You are all I ever needed * To feel precious and alive * I feel love and I feel high * How do you feel? I feel love * And love’s divine * Bloodmoon shine * Come and light me * Come melt away the day * Let me love you * Love you in every way * Before this night is over * I know that you’ll be mine * Do you see the Bloodmoon shine? No more tears * No more lies * No more waiting to exhale anytime * You are good * You are truth * You are all I ever wanted * Salvation from my ruth * I feel love and I feel high * How do you feel? I feel love * And love’s divine * Now you can see the bloodmoon shine *
Get Some Sleep / What would you do if I said I love you * Who would you trust if I told you lies * What would you do if I’d turn the tables * Where would you run if you’re running out of time * You’re running out of time * How would you feel if I said I hate you * What would you dream if you’d get some sleep * Who would you blame if the world would listen * What would you change if a change was all you need * A change was all you need * What would you ask if I had the answers * What you paint if it all turned grey * What would you think if you’re mind was open * Where would you end if it’d end today?
Planet Shame / Don’t tell me what it means to bet the madman * Don’t tell me how it feels to be so hurt * Don’t tell me what it takes to lead an empire (as I know) * And I’ll keep for me how life looks with your face down in the dirt * On planet shame * Don’t tell me how it feels to be forgiven * Don’t tell me what it means to be so blessed * Don’t tell me how I’ll die and get to heaven (as I won’t) * And I’ll keep for me how love feels once you had it with the best * On planet shame * No more tears will blur the sun *
Life Hates You / Seven seconds like seven days * Time doesn’t pass at all * It’s all the same * When love has gone * The fear remains * Nowhere to lay your head down * When it rains * And you wait for conclusion * And the end of your days * Every heartbeat is wasted * For a lifetime betrayed * Where was your part of fortune * From your angle of view * Life hates you * And everything you do * Life hates you * But you hate this life too * A picture frame full of deceit * An empty bed * An empty scene * When love has gone * The void remains * Nobody you can turn to * When it pains * And you wait for the daylight * And you feel incomplete * You wallow in self-pity * And you choke when you eat * Where was your part of romance * From your angle of view * Life hates you * No matter what you do * Life hates you * But you hate this life too * A lonely shell, a lonely home * A mess inside your mind * You’re so alone * Love has gone * The flavour stayed * The flavour of a life * And all those brighter better days * And you read all those poems * They describe what you feel * Oh you wish you’d be stronger * You wish you’d be healed * Where was your part of fortune * Nothing left to renew * Where was your part of romance * No you don’t have a clue * Where was your part of existence * From your angle of view * Life hates you *
Somewhere Else Than Here / She’s got the sway * She’s got the fun * She’s got the smile and the angel face * She’s got the sun * No, I don’t feel warm at all * * She’s got the blaze * She’s got the ken * She’s got the strength and anyway * She’s got the plan * No, I don’t feel led at all * No, I don’t feel led * If this is love * Come on slay me * If this is love * I would rather not be here * If this is life * It ain’t worth the tears we cry * To suffer want * To suffocate until we die * To suffocate until we die * She’s got the tricks * She’s got the crown * She’s got my faith and my belief * And she lets me down * No, I don’t feel caught at all * No, I don’t feel caught * If this is love * Come on slay me * If this is love * Only one romance * Only one gun * Only one bullet * Only one… Only one letdown * The first and the last * Only one… * If this is love * I would rather be somewhere else than here * It ain’t worth the tears we cry until we die * I would rather be somewhere else than here * I aint’ worth to suffer want for all your life *
Burn Me / Here comes the sun * And I am freezing * Here comes the sun * I’m in the shade * Here comes the crime * And I’m the victim * Here comes the truth * There goes my fudge * I want your light to pain me * I want your strength to make my day * I want your beam to melt my mind * Before the dawn * Burn me * Here comes the sun * And I’m defenceless * Here comes the sun * And I undress * Here comes the joy * And I’m addicted * Here comes my healing * There goes disease *
Pain Machine / I’m wearing your dress * I walk in your shoes * I’m humming your favourites * I’m making your moves * I’m breathing your grace * I handle with care * I talked to your neighbour * I said you ain’t there * Well, I’m here to shed your blood * I’m here to rip your heart in two * Well, I came to hear you scream * I came to make my peace with you * That’s why * Pain machine * I’m living your lie * I’m proving you’re real * I sign with your lipstick * Your part of the deal * I call the police * I’m closing your eyes * I’m washing your hands clean and switch off your light *
Lyrics from Temple Of The Torn:
Temple Of The Torn / This is for all those somber moments * It’s for all those well ignored * It’s for all their lost dimensions * And for those who don’t try it no more * Welcome to the temple of the torn (This must be heaven then) * Welcome to the temple of eternal love (Just like heaven then) * It’s ‘bout voices you don’t hear yet * It’s ‘bout suffering lonesome minds * But I preach to the converted * As I know you’ll be down there tonight * Welcome to the temple of the torn *
In My Heart / I still count every minute * Every look in your eyes * Every time that you’re with me * Every kiss, every night * Give me hope for my mission * And support on my way * We’ll be living in clover once we get over the dark and cloudy days * You’re in my heart * You’re in my spine * You’re in my head * You’re in my lungs * And when I die * I’ll be waiting for you * To be with me * You’re in my skies * You’re in my sun * You’re in my tears * You’re in my doom * And when I’m gone * I’ll be hoping that you * Will be with me * You’re a reason to live on * Even after this life * One’s to short for what we share * So we’re living it twice * You’ll be queen of my empire * You’ll be glory and shine * We’ll be in this together * Married forever * Until the end of time * So I’m in love * Where are you? * You’re in my heart * You’re in my spine * You’re in my head * You’re in my lungs * And when I die * I’ll be waiting for you * To be with me * You’re in my skies * You’re in my sun * You’re in my tears * You’re in my doom * And when I’m gone * I’ll be hoping that you * Will be with me * So give me everything you want to give to me * And tell me everything you want to say to me * Just love me anyway you like ‘cause anyway you’re right here in my heart *
Just because I love you / You cried your dream in a big white pillow * You burned the bridge for a way back home * You sold your sin to a place called heaven * You searched for grit in a pile of stones * You’re all I want * You’re all I need * But I can’t share you * Allay my love * Allay my greed * But in my arms she died * And her heart stopped beating here * Right here next to mine * Oh yes she died * With her eyes wide open * Why? Just because I love you * You saved it all for this one good minute * You smelled a rat when they looked at you * You broke the spell with a word in silence * You shared your gold with the only true * You’re all I want * You’re all I need * But I can’t share you * Allay my love * Allay my greed * But in my arms she died * And her heart stopped beating here * Right here next to mine * Oh yes she died * With her eyes wide open * Why? Oh why? Just because I love you *
My-Sick-Mind-TV / I can get no sleep I can’t see the light I can’t stop the itch I can’t temporize * I can’t heal myself I can’t stop the greed I can’t sympathize I can’t love *So do you really want to change with me? * Come walk in my shoes for a little while * And sink in my pain * Come walk in my shoes for a little while * You’re welcome to my brain * Hear what I hear * See what I see * On My-Sick-Mind-TV * You don’t want to be me * I can’t rest in peace I can’t change the world I can’t stop the jones I can’t say those words * I can be no good I can’t stop to scream I can bring you down I can’t smile * So do you really want to change with me? * Come walk in my shoes for a little while * And sink in my pain * Come walk in my shoes for a little while * You’re welcome to my brain * Hear what I hear * See what I see * On My-Sick-Mind-TV * You don’t want to be me *
