By Time Alone

... the lavas that restlessly roll Their sulphurous currents down Yaanek In the ultimate climes of the pole That groan as they roll down Mount Yaanek In the realms of the boreal pole ... it's been not so long I accidently sold my former frame of reference to the cold thinking back, remembering, my tale seems so unreal I'm closed up but the time has come to reveal anxious, also ignorant, my investigative mind and led me there and led me to be so blind haunted are the mountains, I plead for your restraint or hope for men's survival will be faint all my days are nightmares and memories haunt my brain my former mind of knowledge has gone insane you'll never hear this twice 'cause once I had seen the sheen that filled the sky soon I'd die the mounts drew the bounds and I climbed one step too high soon I'd die the cold that had enwrapped my heart is bound to freeze my eyes the truth that seemed on our side had covered all with lies take off my hands, take off my feet take off my ears, rip out my tongue but don't hurt my mind, don't hurt my sense don't hurt my intellectual powers what is frozen you don't feel what hurts is what you lose but at this moment I gave up the ice had blown my fuse made out of cold, made out of fear God's will attracts, God's will is here all had begun, when led by fear, right at the end of the world high in the sky, here at the end of the world

evil roams the land of my dreams onslaught is the onset of coma ancients chase the crystals of black magic is the secret I keep searching in the land of my dreams gazing in the eyes of my dying conciousness I have to grasp the last stone failing means I will never awake slowly I drown in my sleep hoping my brain will awake my last crystal will fall in their hands leaving me to die alone in my sleep ride! I hear hooves pounding I see his mask, it's black ! I try escaping but I can't move I'm doomed sword ! flesh ! blood ! kill ! die ! sun will rise for you again now ...

suffer with me or you will see the end of time the figure you are dreaming of the shapes of those are mine come in my mind coming with the tides are roaring waves of doom darkness we'll find, soon if you listen to my cries then you won't miss the prophecies I tell to everyone of you I see you're frail never have I seen my inner self so black every twig I try to grab is so fearfull it will crack my lungs are screaming because my heart is too shy to explain you're born to fail never will I find the rest untill I'm lost and gone and my blood poors down the drain from beneath the earth I rumble and I bait I've resigned myself without resistance to my fate I drag you down now I'm dead and what I did was useless to you all you're down with me the only thing I still maintain is making you even worse than me and dragging you down within my fall cry for me and for the world because where I look it is black I find cry for me because I have unfurled I have found the dark side of my mind

your spirit turns black as sympathy of life declines only selfish ways reign in your sickened mind your tears have dried and floods of deceit are unleashed upon all humanity heed me from you, deceiver, make believer you shattered my dreams in two all trust lost in dust I weep and in agony I bleed your honesty repressed by hypocrisy mental thief, turning my life into disease no paradise, in hell you'll see internally I'm screaming my fear of dying's dying as compassion decays tell right from wrong words nothing more than vicious lies, betrayal too late, I'm pissed off with violent rage we call him traitor ... bastard ! hate and fear united won't turn into tranquillity no sympathy for god or christ reality ? it's all fantasy life's washing away forever caressing the bitterness I'm roaming forever through my anger

once there was a time when no man had ever touched the earth all that has been built was balanced and so was man's birth come with me and you 'll see you've been put here for a reason use your powers well keep respect for all because on my surface you will dwell when the morning comes we find our way in life her powers make the trees look green the sun will laugh to flowers in the sand I came through another night ... your disgrace for me has brought up shame on my behalf what we've seen so far feels like you're tearing up my scars on my recall I've shown you all you careless fools I make the rules the sun will laugh to flowers in the sand I came through another night ...

I prepared you with all I know as I taught to you I watched you grow changes in the heart and in soul no one ever has got the strength for that goal you see ... time will tell it's tale to us all the part that we play will be told by time alone and so we realize our story will be told by time alone Those who see the shades understand they're the ones who's fear won't get out of hand When one relies too much on his hope he won't search the area beyond his scope follow the line which one is mine ? I've seen things clear no I won't fear time ...

"ancient rhymes infest my brain I go insane old spells are cast ancient rhymes unleash the past" (Charles Dexter Ward) "thragta i memoria ersensa nova nom a ritmica ghidana yog sodomae sabadom" ancient rhymes I hear pounding in my ears "in vigatha worthanathas ghafili commosthi" walls are trembling fog is thickening dust regains it's life fear grows in my mind "who recalls me from the grave ? once again i'm king of all bow and obey" "vocum envocathae confilae maghaesthi" walls are trembling, fog is thickening ancient rhymes I hear voices, I don't know from whom are pounding in my ears resting I wont do again now ancient rhymes I hear the knowledge that it came to life still chills my blood in fear

rex tremendae maiestatis qui salvandos salvas gratis salva me fons pietatis ... amen the trumpet scattering its awful sound across the graves of all lands summons all before the throne death and nature shall be stunned when mankind arises to render acount before the judge the written book shall be brought in which all is contained from the depths of hell and the bottomless pit deliver us from the jaws of the lion lest hell engulfs them confutatis maledictis flammis acribus addictis voca me cum benedictis ... amen oro supplex et acclinis cor contritum quasi cinis gere curam mei finis ... amen ... requiem

in my roots underground bits of grief still remain lingering memories replacing joy by pain in my roots underneath my silent cries grind and burn shaping my own defeat to the point of no return you are leaving me to cope with my scars ignoring me for what ? I don't know former joy burnt down and decayed all that might have been turned to hate dew washed away by the rain acid bitterness eats me it burns a hole in my crust seedlings of our trust won't grow no more leafless you left me as leaves fell down to earth naked I became when you left lonely is the wood of my trunc where in the whirl of your thoughts was the reason anyway seasons nature's cure for my shame in time my branches will grow again spring, winter's foe has arrived blooming I once did ... and will do again ... what did I do wrong to lose your trust? the tree thats me was shook you turned your back and left can't you see I was afraid of you and of that higher tree that took the sun away it all happened much too fast for me and what you didn't know: your tears were acid rain browning my green

remembering the day we took eachother's hand but in our minds we knew we would lose a friend out here we think, we gaze and look above every star for everyone we've loved I don't hear and I don't see but as my guardian he is here with me ... We are what you'll lose deliverance is what you will gain nothing else to choose but deliverance from the pain my feelings are mixed, like living apart together but in my sleep I know he's with me forever this time it's him who's says that it's OK helping me to get over the previous day lacrimosa, dies illa In heaven reunion will take place so take my hand have no fear lacrimosa, dies illa through my laughs and through my tears I'm overwhelmed by memories not in one day nor in years we will forget you've disappeared (dedicated to Opa van der Aa)
