Aching for Reincarnation:
Too far gone to feel the burn
Ash to ash, dust for the urn
Should god smile, break his teeth
Consider it thanks for the pain and grief
It’s too soon to make much sense
And all the rooms still bare her scent
Damaged beings make damaged goods
Vessels that break before they should
And the truth is... is there’s no truth at all
And even the gods are accountable
But the point to make...is there’s no point at all
So lean down and tear me off this pedestal
They outlined her like a suicidal angel
Frozen in a pose, halo oddly angled
A rebel child with a patchwork soul
As the sheets pulled up, I turn cold
To venture where the demons tread
To claim the power to avenge the dead
Trade my soul for a set of horns
Pierce the veil, leave it torn
Aching for reincarnation
Speak aloud the incantation

Hentai:
“Murramurra Suru, Ecchi Shiyou”
Another episode of sweet erotic scenes
Shirtless and showered, explicit and obscene
Naked first impression, mood... erotic tension
Gender confusion, lost in the translation
Little Pervert Angel in weird sexual encounters
Such a smooth sweet talker, a strange little flower
A visual pleasure, a feast for voyeur eyes
Forever yours... Anata Hentai
Pervert...Pervert Angel
Tenshi of Decadence
Won’t you be the one to?
Love me, Fuck me, Beat me, Rape me
Love me, Fuck me, Beat me, Rate me
Take me in and make me sit
Safety words that state the risk
Well don’t hesitate, just submit
To following bliss right off the cliff
A fetish gaze a voyeuristic sight
A throbbing feeling that could last all night
Aphrodisiac laughter, sweet decadence
Perform it like a pro, it’s a shameless service
Warm sweet flesh, tender to the touch
Must I be gentle? Won’t you trust in my thrust?
The titillation of the violent mating dance
Before the Pervert Angel, kneel, buck and prance
“And I swear when I die I’ll come back as a bird to look down your shirt like a Hentai...”
“Hot and sticky, warm and moist, well lubricated, squelching noise”

Rise of the Baka

Rise of the Baka:
I guess I’m your useful idiot
Thought I could re-write this
From the norm to the profound
Re-align my sight and sound
Dive straight into hell and out the other side
Rise, rise, rise Baka rise...
What to follow and what to shun, what will you do with your idiot son?
What to bury and what to burn, what ya gonna do if I never learn?
Just a body and soul without control, just a body and soul without control
Just a body and soul without control, just a body-less soul...
I will rage upon this stage
Until the lime light has faded
From the norm to the profound
All my life is sound
Came straight out of hell, scarred by the other side
Rise, rise, rise Baka rise...
“Can’t seem to tell a deer from a horse, still fighting the most hopeless cause”
What will my eyes see?
When they look to me?
Baka is rising, hail the idiot king
Baka is rising; it’s good to be king

Slide & Shift (Shinju):
“As I pull myself to the shore I can still hear the howl of the waves”
I can’t resist, I slide and shift
Between the realms of pain and bliss
Torn away, taken so fast
The current pulls you from my grasp
In denial, fight through the pain
Swimming down I surface again
A liar
You held my hand as we walked into the sea
We tried to rid ourselves of misery
But something came and intervened
I guess the fates had other plans for me
The start and end, the was and when
The tragic magic of my mirrors twin
What’s right? What’s wrong?
Why the fuck am I hanging on?
Search high and low
Above, below
Where in hell did you go?
Lungs... fire...
She, she, we, Shinju...
Left screaming like an animal in pain
Just raging at the tempest waves
I’ll meet you in heaven or join you in hell
Returning to the beach just an empty shell...
Shut up, shut up, shudder, shudder, howling like an animal
Don’t let go, I won’t let go don’t leave me screaming like an animal
From me to this...

View from Hell

View from Hell:
Brand new soul, fit for a brand new face
Another chance for me, to fall from grace
Let my reflection, reflect my loss
While I go in search of what I’ve lost
The blank eclipse beneath my eyes
It’s only the darkness starring out from inside
And is it me? I just can’t seem to tell
The stranger in the mirror, is just the view from hell
Years pass and I reflect
Caught between this world and the next
When something’s so lost, it’s not to be found
Demons take turns to drag it down
These written words are inked in red
A new name for a soul that’s dead
I don’t answer to that name anymore
They don’t live here... anymore
I dive too deep, I lose myself
I re-emerge as something else
Who did you say you were here for?
Sorry... they don’t live here... anymore

Raise Up to the Sun

Raise up to the Sun:
“Good Women”
Like a horny rabbit dancing through a sea of green
Past the white butterfly’s in there medicated dreams
Forgetting winters cold is yet to breach the field
Ignore the dark clouds, refuse to yield
Cause I’m gonna raise up to the sun
With arms that reach into that light
Yeah I’ve been raised up to the sun
Not to fade but to burn on and on
Like the sights unseen, in this land un-mapped
As the tree does fall... My hand does clap
I break these binds, yeah, I sense what can be
Lost in a field beyond all certainty
To the love goddess
Red blossoming skies of powder blue
In a shadowless meadow, does someone wait for you?
As a warming breeze licks hot with humid taste
I’ll be lying in the sun dreaming of your face

Mouth-Breather:
Night’s uninvited guest, Head like a Rorschach test
A mask my face grows to fit, oops Freudian slip
Mouth-Breather, Mouth-Breather...
A soul as lost as mine is no longer human. Hear the howl of those born screaming
Closing doors where I once belonged, too tired to keep holding on
Walls that slide and quietly shift, there’s never been a place like this
Walls that slide and quietly shift, a dark place that should not exist
Should I wear white or black? Guess there no turning back
Should I wear white or black? Guess there no turning back
Mouth-Breather...
Behind the blending shadows that obscure the view
Motionless in the darkness, waiting, watching you
These shadows and dust are my only claim. Hear the quiet story in the midnight haze
Through the empty night It stays up wind. In cold darkness see you shivering
Burn the pictures no-on cares, six feet down It leaves you there
From the shadows It appears wafting the stench of death
Gnawing teeth break through the black with ravaging excess
All It’s dolls have missing eyes and smile from ear to ear
Hear the soothing noise of It breaking mirrors
It only chases ‘cause you run, Mouth-breather... run on
Never seen again or heard, Mouth-breather... don’t you say another fucking word
Now It lies you down... (Broken dolls... Missing souls...)
It numbs the ache so will It welcome the change?
Will It wear white for me to show the marks I’ve made?
It numbs the ache so will It welcome the change?
Will It wear black for me to hide the bloodstains?
Mouth-Breather

Yurei

Yurei:
As days turn to weeks and these weeks turn into years
Growing discomfort turns to all consuming fear
The strangest sound, an electric feel, the hours arrived and the pain say it’s real
Strong of body but feeble of soul, It takes over as the cold winds blow
A soul’s trauma nightly re-lived in death
The tide of life is smothered in darkness
Drenched in sadness, embraced by tragedy, without words it howls back at me
Unidentifiable figure in the mist, shadowed and ominous
What remains keeps coming back again
Each coming night and numbered day
(Onryo, tell me your name)
Missing hours given to a dim soul
Placate the dead or pay the toll
Tell me it’s not you...
If i show fear it will consume
If i show fear it will consume me
Too numb to feel, too hurt to heal
In the darkness of dreams
4 Am and the Yurei appears
Daylight breaks and I wake up here
The spirit speaks... I’m influenced...
The shadows cry ever silent, the air grows deathly still
Vainly hope, it’s not coming, knowing well it will...
The veil’s down dangling lifeless, what will it take from me?
Cleanse the fever of this passing dream, left roaming rooms unwillingly
Air in flames appear
Shouldn’t you be dead?

WAR-ning

WAR-ning:
Days of mist and nights of rain
The moon is on the wane again
Cheap motels lonely bed
Weary boned and feeling...
Up, down, around again
Things appear closer then
Up, down, around again
In violent circles spinning
So I shift and throw my shape
Constructing walls I’ll grow to hate
Under cloud nights broken clouds
New depressants bring me....
Not to connect but to unleash
When I’m dead I’ll finally sleep
Watch my smile change to a frown
With moral compass spinning....
That’s great but I should learn
Even when I’m on it a bridge still burns
With all these hoops to jump through
And all these shapes to fit
Let’s re-invent the wheel for a car that can’t be fixed
I’m feeling just a little volatile
I’m spinning in violent circles
I’m having problems adjusting
I’m having problems with trusting
Just a little volatile...
Spinning....
WAR-ning...

Separation of Yin from Yang:
To clothe myself, I choose a face
A mask with eyes of gaping space
To enter here... I exit there...
I don’t know how, who really cares
Snuff out the light, bathe it in black
Cause to look in... Is to look back...
What stares back?
There is an ocean and its waters help forget
So I dive in and hope it’s permanent
I drag myself from the water
I drag myself from the water
From this painful emptying
Not to hold on but to let go
Of all the things I used to know
I take a mask and start reflecting
A vessel choosing to be emptied
By a sea that will re-make me/ reject me
When something’s altered, something had to die
I embrace the darkness, I frighten of the light
At the end of darker oceans, lies a watermarked horizon
There I’m inked in pain and hoping
Snuff out the light, bathe it in black
I look in, I look back...
The Separation of Yin from Yang
Just a myth... only a legend
Ah, Lethe mourns.....
