The Creature

My whole body hurts so bad This is a fate I shouldn’t have had Growing to be dry bones and ashes Bleeding red inside from rips and gashes Red, too dim to see Blood forever bleeds Fire is burning me Pain, make it leave Red is the end blurring my sight Red is the end after defeat in this fight Red is the end at the warning alert Red is the end coloring my earth Sickening to see dreams die All it takes is to realize Stranded in a waterless sea Just see the red image of mercy Red, too dim to see Blood forever bleeds Fire is burning me Pain, make it leave Red is the end blurring my sight Red is the end after defeat in this fight Red is the end at the warning alert Red is the end coloring my earth I am now in this world to stay To chase my demons away Red, too dim to see Blood forever bleeds Fire is burning me Pain, make it leave Red is the end blurring my sight Red is the end after defeat in this fight Red is the end at the warning alert Red is the end coloring my earth Demonic creatures hide in my mind A morbid truth one cannot hide I’m not ready to go Never take me away from home

Looking around but I cannot find What I’m looking for I am not sure I want to get the fuck out of this place Blocked by walls in front of my face Where am I? Am I far from where I was? I am already far and lost Search for humanity, totally detached Callously left to persist and last Walking around, I can only see walls Trapped inside long dark vicious halls Help me! Why can’t anyone hear me? Am I the only one hearing these calls? I was here already before I’ll go back but I won’t find the door All from here is gone but me No release from this never-ending labyrinth I walk in my own footprints I feel the cold winds, they blow in my face Ensuring me, I walk towards the dead But I’m lost, where am I to head? Lead me to the exit door I hear my steps on the cold empty floor I am dying, I want to get out It’s so silent, scares me to the core Walking around, I can only see walls Trapped inside long dark vicious halls Help me! Why can’t anyone hear me? Am I the only one hearing these calls? I was here already before I’ll go back but I won’t find the door All from here is gone but me No release from this never-ending labyrinth No one from outside will come I know, because you’re all gone If you would be here you would have shown That earth is not as cold as stone I know you think I’m lost forever You’re wrong, I’m stronger than ever Spit before me and laugh with pride I’m am stone cold and will forever stride Walking around, I can only see walls Trapped inside long dark vicious halls Help me! Why can’t anyone hear me Am I the only one hearing these calls? I was here already before I’ll go back but I won’t find the door All from here is gone but me Who will now set me free?

Whispers fade in the dreams, even fantasy Can’t deny the pure reality Disliked the day and was always mad Filled with anger, laughed at the sad Slept long to await the night The time when it didn’t have to fight Filled with hatred on its greatest height Always knew when the time was right I ask myself: is that me? Is this what I am supposed to be? There’s a sign on my neck, a number blackened I’m a creature in this land of fright Who in this time gave me this role to act? So corrupt, and thought it was right? Left alone to await the pain Apprehensive, fell down in dismay Never cried, stood there and smiled For it was pure and never insecure Locked in a cage and poked with a stick It was enraged until it got sick Started to move away from the pain Like a beaten animal locked with a chain I ask myself: is that me? Is this what I am supposed to be? There’s a sign on my neck, a number blackened I’m a creature in this land of fright Who in this time gave me this role to act? So corrupt, and thought it was right? Wondering; is someone still out there Someone having blood in his heart left? Asked; will you give some blood to mine? It’s so cold; it’s empty to the core If pity was out there and someone still was smart Only gave a little to this drained heart Give the creature back a dead organ See it’s me, and see what I’ve become I ask myself: is that me? Is this what I am supposed to be? There’s a sign on my neck, a number blackened I’m a creature in this land of fright Who in this time gave me this role to act? So corrupt, and thought it was right?

All covered in a sandy desert haze The fallout turned it all into a blaze Left alone in this land of nothingness Always facing the common weakness Clad in leather to roam the land Breathing for survival while crawling in the sand Only living for my own self The biggest mistake is to trust someone else A silent whisper recalling a memory Remembering something that once was my family The world before is past and gone Life in wasteland just begun My name they call, Mad is the given one Shouldn’t have survived was supposed to die Alone there, all close are out of sight All I have now is my dismal life In front of me there’s nothing but dust Far has past the will for life and lust All who cared are far away The last memories of pre war are to fade Kill all that lives in self defense All that is left is to scavenge and cleanse Find another town to watch and explore Find yet others who cry and mourn No fear left only hate Is this my final fate? A silent whisper recalling a memory Remembering something that once was my family The world before is past and gone Life in wasteland just begun My name they call, Mad is the given one Shouldn’t have survived was supposed to die Die, die, die

When my soul was filling with warmth again The spark in my eyes resurrecting from the pain But you took it all into your possession I believed you but you betrayed me I did believe your words Didn’t care for the things I heard Never to become a possession Kill me instead in frenzied obsession You thought you had control Possessing all as your own A disappointment to my eyes A failure in disguise You crossed the flaming line; you took away what’s mine You took that part of my heart with you You wanted to have there me as your own But left me dead to remain alone I did believe your words Didn’t care for the things I heard Never to become a possession Kill me instead in frenzied obsession You thought you had control Possessing all as your own A disappointment to my eyes A failure in disguise My eyes now full of hate, making you desperate You try to escape from your fucking reality Until you understand, I won’t leave you be I will make you know, you will never possess me I did believe your words Didn’t care for the things I heard Never to become a possession Kill me instead in frenzied obsession You thought you had control Possessing all as your own A disappointment to my eyes A failure in disguise

As I drift through the hallways of darkness I’m being chased by the suffering fathomless The path is dark, creatures reeking of decay Can’t say what hurts but to keep them away Towards the darkness I am drawing near Sounds of haunted chants Killing perseverance Surrounded by the haunted Drifting in the darkness Feeling constant terror Mind heavy with horror I can’t get out, I’m caught here forever Dying again in a permanent cycle This is my life to be eternal This is my own hellish inferno Towards the darkness I am drawing near Sounds of haunted chants Killing perseverance Surrounded by the haunted Drifting in the darkness Feeling constant terror Mind heavy with horror Incessant circle, nowhere to find an end I died there a little more once again Nevermore will I remain in peace to rest I will die more in the next coming test

Alone in the far corner of a world of dreams I listen to the plaintive whisper of sweet memories They’re clipped with time, a sedate, soothing rhyme Slowly cries the litany of mine Over this landscape of loose translation My trembling gathers a tacit rejection In seclusion I dwell in deep desolation In desperate secrecy, my pain I live to steal the night again The day has come too soon Sobbing, the stranger’s clutch is due So little time to learn so much No other night could bring such a passionate touch Over this landscape of loose translation My trembling gathers a tacit rejection In seclusion I dwell in deep desolation In desperate secrecy, my pain I live to steal the night again Finally all the destructive words were said Nothing left only to keep what is sacred The memories kept again for all remaining time But now, there’s a future in this fucking crime Over this landscape of loose translation My trembling gathers a tacit rejection In seclusion I dwell in deep desolation In desperate secrecy, my pain I live to steal the night again

Waking up, was that a dream? A living nightmare's all I see The strongest one of them all Laying there, pushed to fall I collect my final strength It's not enough, there's so much left I want to give it away To make the past stay I see it right before me There, open, standing with pride Like a red healthy looking apple Beautiful but rotten inside Lost in damned metastasis Should have been anything but this My tears will no more help All that's left is to fight death I so desperately want to give Back the strength to make you live Gone, is no word for me Stay, is the one I accept to see Why did it choose this way Please don’t leave, just stay If you are taken away My roots are cut from me I see it right before me There, open, standing with pride Like a red healthy looking apple Beautiful but rotten inside Lost in damned metastasis Should have been anything but this My tears will no more help All that's left is to fight death This vicious silent killer Wants to block every way of return Eating inside, slowly by time You have to be saved now I see you smile once again I know, you know it's not a game It's all there in your mind You have to leave it all behind Inside me forever lay My memories, my hope will stay I want you to pull it through Fight, kill, recover, prove I see it right before me There, open, standing with pride Like a red healthy looking apple Beautiful but rotten inside Lost in damned metastasis Should have been anything but this My tears will no more help I don't want you to go
