This Blood 03:45
Far beyond the words on this song Beyond an endless sky Take me down to melt my willness Absorb me deep inside Soft touch your lips on my skin So good, so intimate It feels like hell and heaven are one And you lead me to its gate CHORUS: Oooh oooh oooh... I owe this love to you I owe this blood to you The heat!... its even growing The sweetnes is drowning me Cheeks are red, yor hands so hungry A thousand angels sing CHORUS My love, I'm getting closer Please just don't let me fall I worship you and everything you touch Just let the Magic flow CHORUS I owe this hurt to you I bleed so cold for you

Asylum 03:55
Do not enter, stay outside Do not step over my garden Take your hands off my white walls Do not bleed over my carpet Yes I'm a good christian but it's such a bad day If you will die die but not in my backyard Don't get closer, fade away Away from my beautiful friends Don't bring your crap to my place Take your misery far away Yes I'm a good friend but this is such a bad time If you must die die but not in my backyard Now pick up your shit and leave Just one more thing I will tell you Any trouble you get in Don't forget that you can trust me I'll be there for you

Sex Sells 03:38
Business is business so What is your price? What are you selling? What do you want to buy? Here you may get anything you want Come join up the joy of our sex paradise Dance to the morning Dance to the night Dance to the darkness and into the night Dance with the stars and the stars are we It's nice and it's healthy and sometimes is free You know sex sells so let's set the dance of sex! You know sex sells so let's set the dance of sex! Turn on the TV What do you see? The same old dance waves out there in the streets Dance to the party and straight to the room At the end of the night let me dance with you You know sex sells so let's set the dance of sex! You know sex sells so let's set the dance of sex! Dancin' the nuns Dancin' the whores Dancin' the priest with his acolyte boys Dancin' your parents, your daughter your son And the Mannekins dance too... You know sex sells so let's set the dance of sex! You know sex sells so let's set the dance of sex!

Sheyla charms the darkness With her torturing smile She's lost between reflections Of the seas and the skies She doesn't knows the silence She's always pouring light Even still she knows She's gotta sleep alone tomight Sheyla melts her heart And dances in the mist She melts your heart with one kiss And escapes just like the wind A whisper like a caress From the ocean in the night And again she knows She's gotta sleep alone tonight Sheyla... Sheyla... Sheyla...

Sin Overdose 04:35
You fill me up, You pull me down Heaven and hell in just one touch You pour your light all over me And in the dark you make me bleed The sweet taste in my mouth is the agony... agony A sin overdose, one more victory... victory But pain is not art, is not poetry... poetry A sin overdose and we fall asleep... You fill me up, you pull me down You gave me wings and made me crawl Quiet but wild, just like the sea All flowers died, we are still here The sweet taste in my mouth is the agony... agony A sin overdose, one more victory... victory But pain is not art, is not poetry... poetry A sin overdose while we fall asleep...

(Little butterfly, spread your wings and fly little butterfly, don't be so shy you were born to fly to the blue sky little butterfly, little butterfly be safe, fly high, little butterfly follow the moon and touch the sky avoid the flames don't burn your wings you were born to fly, you were born to fly) Butterfly, Stay in our side Don't you vanish in the wind Move your wngs to feed the fire of the mistery Drop of life, piece of heaven Keep on flapping, don't give up Carry on your deep dreaming Don't you fade away Every night I see your colours In every single breathe I die How could I find my way home Who will show the path Butterfly, Open your eyes Don't you get dissolved tonight Hold on thight to this moonlight And shine, my little star

Look up to this glorious night Spirits dancing on the stars The moon is the godess I will praise tonight Floating far away from crowds I am laying on a cloud Restful on my own hads and its friendly warm Mirror mirror, lie to me Show me what I want to see Mirror mirror, tell me lies I want break down and cry Lost in my private hallucination Flashes of twilight pretending love Sailing this warm sea is my consolation The spume on my feet, the waves, the absent you Only when I close my eyes Feel thy velvet mouth on mine Afrodite herself on my lonely skin Rivers of love running wild Feed the fields, refresh the lands Cities get dissolved cherished by the wind Mirror mirror, tell me lies Would you love me to die? Mirror mirror, lie to me Show me what I want to see Lost in my private hallucination Flashes of twilight pretending love Sailing this warm sea is my consolation The spume on my feet, the waves, the absent you

The night is always young and I grow old A faithless past keeps talking through the screens The knife of faith is always sharped to kill And slowly all that once was real fades out This poison in the air rips down my lungs I feel my soul is trying to escape away A thousand howls arising from my chest The night keeps always young but I just break down

Nightmare (free) 04:12
Standing in the middle of nowhere I realized I was not alone A whisper broke up the silence Watch me fall... I walk the hall through the darkness And I saw the face of the ghost I kiss the lips and he was cold Watch me fall... Fleshless arms around my neck Arms full of love and death And we danced to the same old waltz I'd put my hands together and prayed Finally when I woke up The ghost was laying besides me Watch me fall Fleshless arms around my neck Arms full of love and death And we danced to the same old waltz

Godlike 04:19
There is a safe warm place called madness Surrounded by rainbows and waterfalls Let all the children play on the graveyard I have become just godlike! Chorus: Light on the bonfire Release the lions And see beyond the surface Bloody smiling faces burning In the iris of my eye Tears of blood rolling down my cheeks Evil voices in my mind Hail all the witches, fairys, goblins Running away from a falling sky All of the misery, all of the luxury All of the stars are crashing down I have seen the miracles of pain I have been purified I have been all purfied by pain I have been purified I'm in a safe warm place called madness A carpet of flowers below my feet Let all the oldman die on the playground 'Cause I have become so godlike! CHORUS

Silence 06:08
I am a stranger in your mind I am fire burning your hands You are the darkness You are night, abyss and void Drowning my heart The wind cuts like a knife Old gods come from far away lands There is a spell carved over your pale silence Chrysalis in your eyes A dark parade of bleeding hearts You are a gem made of beautiful silence Dreams pure like water Fears gone by Hidden prayers pulling us down Chrysalis in your eyes A dark parade of bleeding hearts You are a gem made of beautiful silence The wind cuts like a knife Old gods come from far away lands There is a spell carved over your pale silence
