Selected song lyrics.

"Navel of the Universe"

God had awaken in the flower of stars
Smooth surface of our rustling cars
Orphans of the evening stroking sphinx in the sun
Fleecy slow hours devour all the guns
Nickel lacking people within iron baths
Obscured creator hides within his paths

Religion of love is superannuated
Moonlight shimmers with the stars all pure
Strange giant eyes peek down from a hole
Orion's belt is your magic lilac cure

Space liquidizer contains all the fruit
Frivolous gods drink the liquid of fools
Iron rivers hit the smooth steel shore
Meek still trees gliding and glimmering
Globes of the universe - eternal game fields

The Pyramids and Lion on a seashore land
Million years ago covered with the sand
Where once the land was soft and green - now it is gone
As our world keeps turning in the rays of our sun
Within countless stars in our universe
And in other universes stars shine as well
Unicorns and fairies may not be children stories
Look up to the skies and see ether flower worried

Elliptical ways with the embers of creation
Daffodils in the bud of all known powers
Embrace the stone within soft heavy hours

"Mental Recidivist"

I see people, concrete arrows steel plates of the sun
I've enough accepting fractions, knock the cipher soft
Distance from the concrete flowing yellow water print
View and analyze the world the madness that you're in
Evil nation closed in conduct where the mountain sleeps
Atom will not penetrate us, close hydraulic lids
 
Purple-black sky marks the passage of atrophic years
People live for money talking swearing all that is
Stars are shining, sky's responding truth is calling me
Electronic mind seduction will not conquer me
First, perform, then ask the questions soul lobotomy
There's no need to think of freedom, cut out what you need

Celluloid in the flashpoint passage of the dawn
I'm the light that's hiding from the infinite and cold
Rainbow halo falls on down, illuminates the skies
No electric eye of progress, willingness of lives
Mechanical stunt door opens to the tempting world
All the people have to listen, then they march the snow

Nuclear morning glory condo, shining gas in white
All the people running somewhere, leaders measure time
Information oozes backwards, wires carry them
No rotation static nation swifts away the day
One way celluloid party drills the snow for more
Chosen ones correct the data then delete the gold

I look back and forth and wonder where it's coming to
Fewer people teach the robots what's a man to do
Current flows throughout the circuit, dull sardonic laughs
Gather harvest, cut the cables, swim the wild dream next
Negaportret drawn in plastic disassembles love
Paper forests burn horizons searching for the rose

"The Courier"

Out of the morning she raised angry wings
She circled above me awaiting the feast
She lowered her body, came down with the horns
The princess of heaven with sunlight adorned
In less than a second her heartbeat I heard
Her fingers and feathers the last thing I felt
With cold cruel caresses she whispered real low
To the kingdom of heaven your spirit shall go

Down to the meadow she sent one last look
She flew one more round and she sat by a brook
I said be my bride while the engines still run
And blame me for death for indeed I’m the one
Who’s high on the dew of your roses and cards
While planting dead dreams in the womb of the stars
I’m purple but ashen, you’re luscious but veiled
To the kingdom of heaven you’ll just take my grave

Out of the shadows she came to the light
The fortress of magic that priests wished to hide
The ancient unknown that could burn you alive
Immortal and patient, the sister of night
She’ll find you before you can hide in your dreams
Her dark eyes will haunt you, she won’t let you leave
Her animal charm is forever engraved
In the kingdom of heaven you’ll never now save

"Berger"

He spent his life on magic trips
And sailing far on wooden ships
They sang about on an old LP
That kept on spinning posthumously
He had his drugs he had his girls
He had a billion thousand thrills
Until the ships set course to damned
And reached the shore of Vietnam
I say damn
Vietnam

He had his friends and walked the park
Like sun child god or sudden spark
Of freedom growing in the trees
Where lucky creatures joined the feast
And life itself invited him
He had the life you keep within
I guessed that killed him as a man
Who landed stoned in Vietnam
I say damn
Vietnam

He knew the score was loser’s pay
And lucky times won’t last a day
Eternal sidewalks guide his soul
To realms beyond the hands of law
And fear was nothing in his mind
For fountains sprang from hands untied
Until they made him trip the van
And end up dead in Vietnam
I say damn
Vietnam

"The Citadel"

Summer awaits in the stark monuments
Cathedral-like structures in the sky
Voices so treasured to sights never measured
And balustrades that shine

The Citadel
Opens wide
The Citadel
Opens wide

Songs swirling through the hallowed divide
Like spirits on framework of bone
With angels of stone to roses in silence
And a feeling like home

The Citadel
Opens wide
The Citadel
Opens wide

The air's wide awake with strange silhouettes
Which tread through the green and the blue
In the perfect time, in the perfect place
I found you

The Citadel
Opens wide
The Citadel
Opens wide

"Silent Splendor"

So you found a chapel where the crystal shadow sleeps
And you heard a laughter where the Christian lion eats
Let go of the mirror where your minion meets the clown
In this yawning tunnel where the queer has lost his crown
Silent splendor takes you
Just before the break of day
To a door that wakes you
Into the errors of your way

Eating grapes of madness from an aging satyr’s hand
Running with elation only dead men understand
In the loosened echoes of a spirit once so strong
You can hear the vineyards where the poets weaved their songs
Silent splendor warns you
For it knows your tongue is fake
And your loved one scorns you
For the forests and the lakes

Drifting with the strangers on a one way cobblestone street
Under broken streetlights falling straight to the demon’s pit
Will you save your lover from the jaws and claws of sin
Just before you answer you are sure that she’ll give in
Silent splendor calls you
Though it knows that it’s too late
For your spirit’s wasteland
To reverse the dead man’s fate

Where the dawn stood naked me and horror used to meet
There was something sacred in the way I faced defeat
As I bid my body to the fragrance of his night
And I crucified it on the spinning web of life
Silent splendor shakes you
Just before it calls your name
Quiet force will break you
And release you from your pain

"Lucifer’s Herb"

What were you smoking
Just the other day
What were you doing
In the stormy bay
What were you thinking
When you lit the pipe
Where were you going
Leave your mind behind

Don’t lose your mind on
Lucifer’s herb
Don’t lose your mind on
Lucifer’s herb

Why were you sinning
Do you think it’s right
Why are you grinning
Holding death so tight
Starts with a needle
Puts end to life
Why were you wasting
All your given time

Don’t lose your mind on
Lucifer’s herb
Don’t lose your mind on
Lucifer’s herb

Who were you fooling
With your wizened lies
Who were you guiding
To paradise
Why all the running
Do you think I care
You’ll never stop now
You’re far from saved

Don’t lose your mind on
Lucifer’s herb
Don’t lose your mind on
Lucifer’s herb

"Chin-Wag in the Chill Cabinet"

Our chatter seems to last longer
We’re deep frozen in our dream
We chat on all possible matters
While we leisurely and frequently spin

Nineteen to the dozen
Seven bodies frozen
Skeleton key, you’d better you bet
It’s just a chin-wag in the chill cabinet

Our proposals are getting boring
So we discard them all
And then the chatter starts again
Winter, spring, summer, fall

Nineteen to the dozen
Eleven bodies frozen
Skeleton key, you’d better you bet
It’s just a chin-wag in the chill cabinet

Our trash simply overgrows us
Though we try hard to shoot it down
All the gadgets are simply dreary
And we’re all deep into frown

Nineteen to the dozen
Fifteen bodies frozen
Skeleton key, you’d better you bet
It’s just a chin-wag in the chill cabinet

Infinite to the dozen
Nineteen bodies frozen
Skeleton key, you’d better you bet
It’s just a chin-wag in the chill cabinet

"Waves"

I walked through the city I thought I knew well
I've gathered impressions, heard voices and songs
I walked on to reach the citadel
And see if the summer still carried it on
So I sighed and I walked through her hills of green
Still your stark countenance could nowhere be seen

Waves
Waves

Through clubs dark and filled with obscure mannequins
Sipping dense golden drinks from high velvet glasses
I watched and I laughed and I danced on their floors
And I wandered far to see how the night gently passes
Without a word to say, the night did pass away
Away

Waves
Waves

I walked on and on ‘til the streets didn't glare
And they glowed in the sun of the old town flare
With its fumes on me, clouds smelled of heavy opiates
And their whores of vision, none else they grew
The drugs you’ll fight anew cause no one else they knew
But you

Waves
Waves

"Dark Lord / Alfa Omega"

On the highest mountain top
He stands with wings so wide
He is the master of this world
He laughs into the sky
He is the lord of all you sinners
He's gonna come for you
He is the lord of all you sinners
He's gonna get to you

Dark Lord
Dark Lord
Dark Lord
Dark Lord

Born to earth, child of space
Eternal super mind
Born in pain, thru the thorns
His astral path must find

There is nothing he does not know
But his feelings he won't show
Straight people don't understand at all
They don't hear the call

Cold as hell, freezing stars
Zero zone is near
Nebulae of ancient nights
Reveal his hidden fears

There is nothing he does not fear
Into granite stars he disappears
There is nothing, this is void
His soul is freed, body destroyed
His soul is freed, body destroyed

Dark Lord
Dark Lord

Here I speak from the eternal abyss
To bring you life you never knew
I am the lord of all mankind
I shall destroy you

Dark Lord
Dark Lord
