Hollow Roots

HOLLOW ROOTS
If I am void, am I infinite?
Or a spark is leading to the substance - always?
Through shallow water I walk in small triangles
Following the maps inside my irises
Protuberant dominance
Hidden in a non-existent solar crown
Severed from vacuum and form
The mental clouds have made up a storm
If I am flesh, am I the special marks
Forming the invisible inscription “end”?
Deep inside the tissues of existence
The only chance for deviation is forbidden.
I crawl back into the lair
Where the soil is warm and mine.
Orbital existence
Interstellar dust in the wilderness
Glowing, glowing, gradually fading
Blackened wind caress
The earth is dark, the earth is truth
The black stones shape my prayer
The cradle stinks, the cloth is rotten
The threads are snakes and the snakes are hollow roots.
Solo:Nikola
Solo:Vasil
If I am void, am I infinite
Or remnants of a forest under blackened water?
If I am earth, am I the end
Or will I touch a mirror, if I stretch my arm?
Protuberant dominance
Hidden in a non-existent solar crown
Severed from vacuum and form
The mental clouds have made up a storm

PAINTING A BLOODY SYMPHONY
Painted wrathful angel plays the harp bloody symphony
The sound of its strings fondles my mind
A serpent drinks the blood from a lamb
I already know this is a sign
This narrative shows you the mood
And the mood shows the cartoon of life
Grotesque parody of your sheep’s vision
The mockery of creators I see
Years of waiting making me sick
Sick ‘cause I lost my energy
But I’m so glad of what I see
Spiritual slaughter among angels and sheep
A concert of distorted brains
Depicts illusory reality
The music cannot be heard
Played by wrathful angels
Every lie feeds the fire for more lies
Every new lie is born of the harp’s strings
The lie is like the artist painting
“A serpent drinks the blood from a lamb “
Like a harp string made by liars
Blood from a lamb sweet to feed
Grasping monsters obsessing your mind
Blackening your days blackening your deeds
But I’m so glad of what I see
Spiritual slaughter among... angels and sheep

Surgical Masquerade

SURGICAL MASQUERADE
Furious monsters were chasing me
I was running, trying to escape
Breaking bushes and branches
Painfully rushing through the thorns I escaped
And found myself upon a secret tor
My breath was frozen and my eyes were closed
The beating of my heart was pulsating in my ears
I saw my persecutors wide eyed upon me
I clenched my eyelids praying for a miracle
A secret bombshelter in a hole before me
I was on the roof of this room of horrors
I saw myself down, faceless monsters all around
They quickly took on the doctors’ business
Opened the drawers with surgical tools
One of them stepped forward
Opening a book with bloody pages
Solo:Nikola
Someone was lying in front of me on a medical coach
Screaming, tied with his own guts
His face to be replaced with mine
A wolf looks like a sheep
A leader hides a devil inside
A god in human form
And idiots to serve them all

DIVINE MANDOLINS
You have a holy book
You don’t know what to do with it
You have your leaders
You don’t know what they are for
You have so many different colours, bodies, faces…
You have no idea what’s your purpose here
Thе Earth is a dungeon absorbing every soul
The leaders you trust so much are slaves to the cross
Your souls are suits designed to bear all posible torments
And all diseases created by worried well-wishers
Higher powers and creatures cut your veins
With musical instruments, with strings stuck... in the flesh
Playing their butchery songs, slicing meat to pieces
Rivers of blood fall from the holes of their mandolins
See their perverted grimaces reigning over open mouthed mobs
The higher powers have fun again
Celestial mace falls and devastates…
You are so small when you are down
Now tell me what did you read?
What did you learn from the leaders you follow?
Thoughts like snakes make you freeze
When all trees are cut down
Solo: Nikola
When all animals are dead
When all water is poisoned
And all air is unbreathable
Embrace the moment
When you can’t restart
Your self-consuming ways
Listen to the mandolins play
Inspiring sadness and sweet pain
Your souls are suits designed to bear all possible torments
And all diseases created by worried well-wishers
Higher powers and creatures cut your veins
With musical instruments, with strings stuck in the flesh

Sacrificial Eutanasia

SACRIFICIAL EUTHANASIA
I’m waiting in a dark corner with tied hands and legs
Tied with my own dried veins
Sometimes I see a light shining bright, but so cold
Yet, I’ll search a path towards it
Suddenly I notice a trail in front of me
Revealing and hiding the mysterious forgotten
Now they shine beside me
The reflections of light from below
And the fires of heaven burning
Solo: Vasil
Countless species of all populations
Unicellular, swarms of insects, human beings
Each of them tied up in their own corner
Lying in hope never to return in mortal form
Now they shine beside me
The reflections of light from below
And the fires of heaven burning
The Light soothes the fire
They stare at us to aid their own survival
I hear their thoughts and voices
Revealing to me their true intention
Sacrificial euthanasia
Solo: Nikola
Now it shines everywhere around us
The light reflected from our bodies
And the fire from our flying souls
Solo: Nikola

Hegemony Of The Weak

HEGEMONY OF THE WEAK
Hegemony of the weak
Unstable kingdoms built of sands
Houses raised from ground to sky
Professed saviours disgorge promises
Join the flock of doomed believers
Keep up your religion
Kiss your holy cross or sacred relic
God’s words coming out of graceless mouths make you weak
When lies kill reality, there is no hope and the weak start to toil
Solo: Nikola
And when their “saviours” pass away
They always take their place
Kingdoms fall apart, broken dreams and realms
Chemically violated nature swallows blood and waste
Fruits of pain and blue sky served on a silver plate
Extort your final breath
Hegemony of the weak
Sadistic kingdom of the half-dead and everlasting torture
Gods laugh to death
Solo: Nikola
Hegemony of the weak
Unstable kingdoms built of sands
Houses raised from ground to sky
Professed saviours disgorge promises
Join the flock of doomed believers
Kiss your holy cross or sacred relic
Fruits of pain and blue sky served on a silver plate
Solo: Nikola

GIVING ALMS TO BIRDS
The final day has come
A lifeless body staring at the sky
Sky with all shades of black
The stormy clouds are silent
And waiting for a sign… from the ground…
Morbid croaks tear the flesh of silence
Dark shadows flap their wings
And remove the clouds all around
Leaving behind the darkest black - not just the sky
Bloodthirsty beaks rip open the corpse
Feasting on the internal organs
Broken bones don’t stop them
To devour, to slurp, to grunt and revel
Dismembered body and scattered remains
Consumed and devastated by these creepy birds
The only human waste they leave behind….
Is ground and mixed by the crowd dressed in black
They watch with empty eyes and serve the rest
To the winged angels of death
Then the black empty sky tears apart
Furious winds bring angry clouds
And their tears wash out the bloodsoaked ground
The winds carry the stench of the last human remains
