Marshmallow sunrise kiss me awake
A day filled with fairytales made by wishing on a birthday cake
With a sprinkle of true love from your adoring darling
Come forest creatures let's start the day
Prepare my favourite dress
The one with the blue frills and apple coloured bow
And puffy snow sleeves fit for a princess
My cutesy little animals what do you have for me?
A dozen chores to do before the afternoonly tea
Let's grab our mops and dusters so we clean our very best
And grab our pots and pans so we can cook food for our guest
So hurry little animals let's set the table soon
Our party must be perfect just in time for afternoon
So squirrels sweep those surfaces and bunnies bake and blend
And I will brew the tea specifically for our new friend
Achoo!
Turn that frown upside down
Welcome to Wonderland
Sit with me and drink your tea
As I welcome you to Wonderland
Sweet cinnamon roll please take a seat
As we start to celebrate your arrival with a special treat,
Made of sticky caramel baked with a pinch of love
Come try the green tea and the apple pie
And snuggle up real close
As the forest animals prepare their fairytale
The age old story of my darling mother
So once upon a time there was an evil monster queen
Who shouted at her mirror when it told her she was mean
She vowed to steal the beauty from the women of her creed
By poisoning their apples with a mystic cosmic seed
The people of the kingdom slowly fell into despair
As their queen fell to madness uttering an old one's prayer
So never listen to the whispers of the ancient pale
But don't worry your pretty head it's just a fairytale
Turn that frown upside down
Welcome to Wonderland
Sit with me and drink your tea
As I welcome you to Wonderland

Darkstar

I've watched generations crumble in abyss
A cosmic void listening to their screams
Of knowing nothing, yet knowing all
These tiny pets of mine
The clocks they torture tick tock impending doom
Erode away the night and day
Tick tock till death consumes
The moonlight beckons the rabbit from its home
To pay the price and sacrifice
Eternity alone
Pestilence born upon a rock
Where life is just a fleeting speck of dust
Yet here I am, a monument of fear
Where I witness you, dear saviour
The one who wields the chalice of mortals
Who drinks from my body of ruin
And claims they will slaughter my radiant light
Foolish little child
The moonlight wanes to let the sun scream
I speak in the tongue of the monsters
To bear witness to your darkest dream
Where I give you this warning, this age old tale of woe
The clocks they torture tick tock impending doom
Erode away the night and day
Tick tock till death consumes
The moonlight beckons the rabbit from its home
To pay the price and sacrifice
Eternity alone
Bastard children of soil and sand
Whose god left long ago
Embrace my bosom and feast upon
My awful cosmic glow
Cancers in oblivious prisons
Kept far from the purity of the stars
I guard as a warden of the dark
To watch you rot away
You call me the nemesis of man
Whilst soaking in the rays I give you
Accepting of my holy nightmare gift
You foolish little child
The clocks they torture tick tock impending doom
Erode away the night and day
Tick tock till death consumes
The moonlight beckons the rabbit from its home
To pay the price and sacrifice
Eternity alone

Grant Me Thine Eyes
05:40
|
|||
Blinding noise, speak to me
Abyssal angel of misery
Grant me thine eyes so that I may see
The monster within that I'm meant to be
Trapped inside this cage of flesh
My monster wants its birth
To feast upon the living
And to consume the Earth
Bless me with thine eyes, oh lord
I want the hunter's sight
To choose a sacrifice to bring
A curse this dreaded night
Brace yourself for the face of death
Smiling with my teeth
Tainted by my blood and milk
They come from beneath
Arise my childlike beasts of fire
Born of seed and coal
Your mother needs the taste of man
So take their lives and bring me back their souls
Blessed be the lamb of sacrifice before the coming storm
Let clouds erupt with bloody rain to call the silent dawn
Please grant me with thine eyes and open up the skies
When was the last time I heard the children sing?
Must have been when I had the heart to sing too
Do you remember when tulips used to bloom?
Long before I saw the coloured space anew
I've suffered for sight and struggled with space
To see the cosmos shine from the smile of every face
These eyes, they are cursed to see beyond the mind
But to see mistakes I've made, these eyes, they are cold and blind
Forced to face the guilt within
My monster wants to run
To flee from all the evil
That I've ever done
Forgive me for these eyes, oh lord
Abyssal poisoned mind
Release me from my need for blood
And take them, make me blind
Brace yourself for the face of death
Smiling back at me
Tainted by my blood and milk
It's come to set me free
Arise the ghosts that haunt my thoughts
Born of my cruel hand
Your mother needs to be at peace
So please forgive me children of the damned
Blessed be the lamb of sacrifice before the coming storm
Let clouds erupt with bloody rain to call the silent dawn
Please grant me with thine eyes and open up the skies
When was the last time I heard the children sing?
Must have been when I had the heart to sing too
Do you remember when tulips used to bloom?
Long before I saw the coloured space anew
When was the last time I heard the children sing?

Harmony
05:17

Scarlet ruby become my heart
And beat like an animal encased in stone
My one falling star wish is to be warm
To turn this puppet body into something real
Wooden joints entwined by wires
And bags of air so I can breathe
With hair of sawdust and eyes of glass
I run in perfect harmony
A subtle glance, a longing gaze
Embrace within our love for days
A ring of crystals and cherry gold
From someone I can hold
But all these splinters harm those I adore
Release me from this wooden corpse
I want to be much more
A ballet dancer of swanborne feathers
An opera singer drowning in harmony
Or a mother of nature tormented by howling
As she discovers her love is a dream
I dream of an evening draped in silk
Where I wear a dress fashioned with opal stones
And the entire ballroom falls silent for me
As I twirl around in a bolero of stars
Then I wake to the beating of my ruby heart
A scabby dress of spider webs and sooty old buttons
Strings, release me
Make me into flesh
In exchange I'll give my heart to live
With eyes that see the truth

Thermophile

The petals of my flowers are searing on my skin
The feeling of a fire burning within
The pollen in the air is getting in my head
So come to me fire and show me the world of the dead
Speak to me playful wisps of cosmic light
Help me dream without the night
Starlit soul, where could you be?
A thousand lifetimes away from me
Help me live beyond the sea
A kiss for payment to set me free
The embers of my ashes flow up the river Styx
To bring forth the rebirth of a phoenix
To burn like the sun and consume the world
An immortal fire fuelled by the love of a girl
Speak to me central star of the galaxy
Tell the world what you want from me
I want your soul to join with mine
To burn so bright for all of time
I need the fire in your heart
So we may finally shine
But fate will send you far away
Just wait for me beyond the day
I'll find you in the darkest flame
Just listen out for your name
Starlit soul, where could you be?
A thousand lifetimes away from me
Help me live beyond the sea
A kiss for payment to set me free
Worldly sun leviathan
The raging ball of hydrogen
Grant me a life of molten love
And let me join you up above
The gift of light you gave to me
I've cherished for eternity
But I've always wanted so much more
Oh holy sun that I adore
If you want to melt this charcoal heart
You'll need to reignite my soul's spark
So with a breath you'll take your chance
And come with me to join in my infernal dance
Speak to me flower of the sun above
Teach me how to accept your love
I want to feel your mortal skin
As we commit immortal sin
Just open up and pay the price
Of entrance to paradise
But jealousy is destiny
As we entwine in ecstasy
Before you leave without a choice
Just listen out for my voice
Starlit soul, where could you be?
A thousand lifetimes away from me
Help me live beyond the sea
A kiss for payment to set me free

Slay The Whale
03:12
|
|||
Stars of the sea chart out our course
Burn the midnight oil and off we sail
Through the seven seas and the ocean blue
With our mighty ship we'll slay the whale
Drink up the rum
Smoke all the weed
Crew, let's go out and do or die
Cast out the sails
Row men row
Sharpen your blades and raise them high
Avast yee dogs
Yo ho ho
We raise our flag and never fail
To claim our prize
Yo ho ho
Off we sail to slay the whale
Cut through the waves
Salt in the air
Masters of the waters
Yo ho ho
Booty on the deck
Drunk at the helm
Free to loot and pillage
Yo ho ho
Avast yee dogs
Yo ho ho
We raise our flag and never fail
To claim our prize
Yo ho ho
Off we sail to slay the whale
Gone for twenty days
Island off the bow
Shipwrecks full of treasure
Yo ho ho
Sirens call our names
Point us out to sea
Still the beast it taunts us
Yo ho ho
Avast yee dogs
Yo ho ho
We raise our flag and never fail
To claim our prize
Yo ho ho
Off we sail to slay the whale
Forty days or more
Many walked the plank
Sleeping with the fishes
Yo ho ho
Cannonfire booms
Sink a royal ship
Forget about the whale
Yo ho ho
Avast yee dogs
Yo ho ho
We raise our flag and never fail
To claim our prize
Yo ho ho
Off we sail to slay the whale
Two hundred days
Out on the sea
Ran out of rum
Oh no no
Nothing to drink
Going in insane
Cursing the whale
Oh god no
Avast yee dogs
Yo ho ho
We raise our flag and sometimes fail
To claim our prize
Yo ho ho
Home we go without the whale
Avast yee dogs
Yo ho ho
We raise our flag and sometimes fail
To claim our prize
Yo ho ho
Home we go without the whale
Yo ho ho!

City Of Domdaniel
05:38
|
|||
Raise your hand, unleash the threads
Entwined in webs of silk
A forceful kiss, a drop of blood
Into the sea of milk
Learn the magic of charcoal
Deep in the city of Domdaniel
Where Maugraby whispers secrets
Of soulless powers untold
Approach the court of terror
To face Zatanai's wrath
Or kneel before the maw
And choose the darkened path
Taken from your bed
And thrown into the sea
Where you'll sink down to the urban depths
Where darkness smothers thee
Learn the magic of charcoal
Deep in the city of Domdaniel
Where Maugraby whispers secrets
Of soulless powers untold
Slave to the magic
Of power volcanic
A cavern of ancient skulls
In blood where the city dwells
Approach the court of terror
To face Zatanai's wrath
Or kneel before the maw
And choose the darkened path
Was it worth a bloodied soul?
To take on the villain role?
A seaweed path to hidden darkness
Where the city beckons you
Where the pale perform their belly dance
Of soulless powers untold
Slave to the magic
Of power volcanic
A cavern of ancient skulls
In blood where the city dwells
Approach the court of terror
To face Zatanai's wrath
Or kneel before the maw
And choose the darkened path
