The Desert Speaks

The desert speaks of ancient ways
Of love and violence
The desert laughs, the desert scares
The vision’s blurred
Fast
Fast for days
Fast clarifies, reveals the mystery
There in the waste, I see the primal god
In quiet wind, the singing of the sand
The desert brings a snake
A winged angel with a cup of myrrh
A lonely raven casts his shadow on the sand
And rips the silence with his cry of agony
God speaks
The desert listens
The desert soaks the voice of god
I hear the rocks, the mountains resounding
The caves sing of the dreams of old

Day and night in the desert they went
Scorching sun, burning sand
Sacrifices that never end
For a higher cause
Will it ever be found? But of course!
How can you question the highest force?
Keep on, race your horse
For a higher cause
The Quest for the Holy Grail
Our Lord will never fail
Far from home, far from life
Sand in their eyes, sand in the skies
A new sunrise, a new day in search
For a higher cause
Can it ever be found? But of course!
How can you question the highest force?
Press on, have no remorse
He steers your course
The Quest for the Holy Grail
Our Lord will never fail
Kill the infidel, burn the witch
Pay no heed to their cry
Spare no one, slay mother and child
For your redemption is nigh
The Quest for the Holy Grail
Our Lord will never fail

Dust Devil

Once upon a time
Near a border line
Spirit-walkers went
Sudden danger scent
Planet’s guts’ abuzz
Vision’s getting fuzzed
Devil’s on the loose
Rectifying noose
Years of wrongly chosen path
We should’ve known better
Feel the imminence of wrath
Of the desert
Stars are closing in
Deadliest of sins
Not to be compared
Here they’re running, scared
See the demons’ eyes
In the blackened skies
In the heart of storm
Lies a giant worm
Years of wrongly chosen path
We should’ve known better
Feel the imminence of wrath
Of the desert
Half a world away
Where big decision's made
See them splash and splurge
Until they get the urge
Wounded are the blessed
Poorest take the rest
Everything’s destroyed
Falling into the void
Years of wrongly chosen path
We should’ve known better
Feel the imminence of wrath
Of the desert

In the Wind of the mind arises the turbulence called I
All life is choked in the shower of barren thoughts
The desert is the Abyss, one spot accursed in a world of bliss
The Stars are but thistles in that waste
Speak, speak, speak, millions of mad voices in my brain,
Like dust devils senselessly they swirl
Swirling swirling swirling useless thoughts, pointless thoughts,
Each shrieks, "I am I! I am insane!"
All is dispersion. These are the qualities of things
The world of adjectives, and there is no substance therein
The Dweller in the Abyss in the confusion of his thought
Is terrified by silence, by silence can he be brought to obey
Swirling swirling swirling useless thoughts, pointless thoughts,
Each shrieks, "I am I! I am insane!"
In my soul is utmost fear
In my soul is utmost fear
Speak, speak, speak, millions of mad voices in my brain,
Like dust devils senselessly they swirl
Swirling swirling swirling useless thoughts, pointless thoughts,
Each shrieks, "I am I! I am insane!"

The Blackest Night

I saw a light a while ago
A lone gleam down the road
Came closer only to see it vanish
I'm marching on into the night
I don't remember your face
The sound of your laughter, the taste of your tears
Of joy and pain, and wildest fears
All perish in memory
I'm marching on into the night
Where are the righteous? Where are the wicked?
Where are the chosen ones?
All turned into the anthracite
Where are the wealthy? Where are the poor?
Where are all the oracles?
All gone into the blackest night
The torn tarp I covered you with
Was taken away by the piercing wind
Under these hills now you forever rest
I'm bound to go on all alone
I'm marching on into the night
Shadows creep soundlessly in the dark
As I'm going down the burnt black road
Bones turned to sand squeak under my feet
I'm alone in the world of death
Marching on into the night
I saw a light a while ago
A blue glow down the road
Came closer only to see it vanish
I'm marching on into the night
