Descent 04:21
You cannot even see The pain in my bleak eyes As I slowly Descend into madness What has defined Me Soon to be Buried Obsessed with Obtrusive observations With every breath I want to change For the greater good There is an ultimate Task Dispose of feeling Dispose of heart Dispose of mind Dispose of memories Dispose of the definition Of a human being What has become of me? A shallow shape wandering around Barely recognizable As what once defined a human Every aspect of myself decimated to a scrap heap Like a picture of misery There is no pity left As I slowly descend into my own pit Synchronously with uncountable Others The gift of life Able to breathe Erased like a flame What is the ultimate destiny? 6 feet - soil - and the shameful me

Symbiosis 09:32
Symbiosis Countless possibilities Crossing paths A decision tree As ancient as mankind itself Trying to solve the scheme Crawling deeper into The city of thoughts Countless possibilities Crossing paths A decision tree As ancient as mankind itself Progression, progression… Fallback, fallback… Progression – regression… Progression – regression… The starting point converges with the… …end point painted By hallucinations A rush of contentment conjures A grin On our faces Blinded by naiveté And blinded by the light As we step Into the Unknown We are waiting for another hope Another star, another sun To shine, Another light to… …blind the ones that we left behind… The last phase has been heralded by The first bird falling from the sky A lot of birds and a lot of men to follow …to follow Something that only a few have foreshadowed Words that have been ignored And death that followed …and death that followed The process of decomposition Catharsis, the origin of the Symbiosis As the ash and soil became as one A rush of contentment conjures A grin On our faces Blinded by naiveté And blinded by the light As we step Into the Unknown We are waiting for another hope Another star, another sun To shine, Another light to… Blind…

Traceless 08:06
Traceless Traceless Traceless Wandering a predefined path Stones, glass, hindering my flow As soon As I open my eyes, I realise I am walking alone A shrine we built ourselves Crumbles as soon as I enter The irony of laughing Is not to waste any air Existential thoughts Necessities yet unknown In order to pass along Our future …future Burning down memories step by step The irony of life The existence of nothing …nothing! Traceless Traceless Traceless At least emptiness Means something At least I walk alone At least I carry on At least I walk alone At least I leave my corpse behind The corpse, the only thing I leave behind Shattered thoughts as if no one listens when Crying out loud in a dream sinking in sand Leaving no trace behind Loved, forgotten, not remembered The corpse, the only thing I leave behind No! Traceless, I left the world behind Behind Wandering a predefined path Stones, glass, hindering my flow As soon as I open my eyes, I realise I am walking alone A shrine we built ourselves Crumbles as soon as I enter The irony of laughing The irony of life

Path of endless grief Opportunities vanishing One door closes, Others close as well Whispers in my head, Misleading… Uncovered truths Ignored by others Seconds feel like an eternity A step forward, the moment I feel my emotions Breathe… Crying seems to be the only way to process grief I feel alone, even when I am surrounded by people Distorted voices Cryptic metaphors The thin line between Nightmares And reality Blurred A moment of joy Is short-lived Another step forward I plunge into a deep mental abyss Screams, not mine, or are they? I am going insane… Or am I already? At least sorrow is a constant How can I face my past When I am not understood By others? How? Another internal split later At my last gasp With all my hatred I accept my fate and the fate of my only loved one I intentionally shut the door behind me And move forward into nothingness Knowing the consequences and The possibility of a new beginning Path of endless grief Path of endless grief Opportunities vanishing One door closes, Others close as well Whispers in my head, Misleading…

Lost in silence Forever lost Forever lost in silence Words cannot Express how much we miss you … miss you Forever lost in silence Therefore, we mourn We mourn in silence The only noise Coming from the weeping We mourn In silence The weeping That cleanses Our consciousness The tears Soon take shape And lead To a river But as that river Is the only water Left on earth The water That contains salt And unbearable emotions We are destined Even our descendants Are destined At least We are knowing Knowing… To be lost
