Love is a Funeral

A symbolist descent into decadence and suffocation. Beauty becomes a burden, desire curdles into decay.

Velvet breathes… it clings to skin,  
A touch so soft it sinks within.  
Each thread a promise, dark and deep,  
Each fold a secret I can’t keep.  

Beneath the weight of velvet red,  
Desire feasts where angels bled.  
Perfume thick, it steals the air,  
A love too rich for flesh to bear.  

The weight of velvet pulls me down,  
Silken hands that make me drown.  
Beauty smothers, sweet and cruel,  
A dying breath, a velvet tomb.  

Lips of wine and eyes of stone,  
Pleasure turns the heart to bone.  
Each kiss heavier than before,  
Until I breathe — no more, no more.  

Soft as night,  
Dark as sin,  
The velvet takes —  
And pulls me in.  

The weight of velvet pulls me down,  
The beauty burns, I wear the crown.  
Beneath its touch, I fade, I swoon —  
My body lost, my breath consumed.  

[outro (Spoken whisper, fading into reverb)]  
Velvet sighs…  
And I am gone.

Verse 1
So much to see
so much to create
myths and stories
From the realm of dreams

A new horizon
silicon based
the mask of the lazy
and the talentless

Bridge
Who'll appreciate if my words rhyme
made by sweat and tears and not AI

Chorus
This is a world I don't want to see
This is art not a game for me
where talent must be bred not greed
This is art not a game for me

Verse 2
So much to hear
So much to dream
From my imagination
a new life I live

Open your mind
and let your thoughts fly
don't feed the machine
that can kill your spark

Bridge
Who'll appreciate if my words rhyme
made by sweat and tears and not AI

Chorus
This is a world I don't want to see
This is art not a game for me
where talent must be bred not greed
This is art not a game for me

Not a Game

You got a fuckin' problem
Bitch
Admit it
The shit you put me through is unforgivin'
I'd rather fuckin' die than relive it
The shit you put me through is unforgivin'
I never said I was a hero
I only told you what I know
I bet you wish I would've shut up
I wish that I could shut up


But you know
But you know


When I was born
The doctor said I was a bastard
My dad said that I was just like him
A fuckin' hazard
I think it's kinda funny that I get what I deserve
'Cause I upset everyone
And I don't care
I don't care
And I don't care


You got a fuckin' problem
I can tell
You think you're Heaven sent
You're from Hell
You tell me that you love me
Wish me well
When really you just love to watch me fail
I never said I was a hero
I only told you what I know
I bet you wish I would've shut up
I wish that I could shut up


But you know
But you know


When I was born
The doctor said I was a bastard
My dad said that I was just like him
A fuckin' hazard
I think it's kinda funny that I get what I deserve
'Cause I upset everyone
And I don't care
I don't care
And I don't care

Your Problem

Lyrics by Mark Xenophontos 

------------------------

Double shame that drowned me in the rain
Pulled me down a deep and dark hole
My weak flesh burning out in vain
Couldn't lift an inch to stay whole
Was dying there with no pulse or flinch
Losing ground, inch by bitter inch

Oh God come save me from myself
Before I stumble further down
This trauma's screaming out for help
These wounds are screaming loud
I can't let it end without a sound

I can't keep the secret any longer
Can't pretend I've got it all together
Can't pray when I don't feel spiritual
The weight keeps pulling me under
So come and help me find the way
Need Your light to break through the grey

Show me how to be stronger
Can't keep this secret any longer
No more lies, no more shame
Breaking free from all this pain
No more lies, no more shame
I'm calling out Your name

Need something more than me
More than what these eyes can see
When temptation comes around to betray
Every promise that I made

Gotta be a better man today
Gotta rise above this grave
'Cause I know what I believe
Even when my heart's afraid
Oh God I'm reaching out my hands
Before I fall too far away

This battle raging deep within
I need Your strength to make a stand
Can't fight these demons on my own
I can't keep the secret any longer
Can't pretend I've got it all together
Can't pray when I don't feel spiritual

The weight keeps pulling me under
So come and help me find the way
Need Your light to break through the grey
Show me how to be stronger
Can't keep this secret any longer

No more lies, no more shame
Breaking free from all this pain
No more lies, no more shame
I'm calling out Your name

Send me to the other side
Where the darkness cannot hide
So I can't break the final seal
Won't bow down to what's not real

Send forth Your holy chariots now
Where every knee must bow and kneel
Let Your fire make me whole again
Burn away this guilty skin
Fill me with Your light within

I can't break
Won't break the seal
Send Your fire
Take me higher
Light the way

I can't keep the secret any longer
Can't pretend I've got it all together
Can't pray when I don't feel spiritual
But I'm reaching out from under
You came and helped me find the way
Your light broke through the darkest grey

Now I'm rising up much stronger
Won't keep this secret any longer
No more lies, no more shame
You broke the chains, I'm not the same

I'm free, I'm free, I'm free
No more shame
I'm free, I'm free, I'm free
Won't keep this secret anymore

No More Shame

Final swan song of the year.  Let's end 2025 together.

Neural Dawn

[Verse 1]
A steady hand, a patient eye
Beneath a clear and honest sky
I turned the cheek and swallowed pride
With nowhere left to run and hide

[Chorus]
But the poison takes, the fever breaks
And all my kindness slowly shakes
A peaceful man can only bend
Before he breaks and makes an end

[Verse 2]
I saw the wolves begin to feast
On innocence and gentle peace
A silent scream, a pleading glance
Met with a sneer and cruel dance

[Chorus]
And the poison takes, the fever breaks
And all my kindness slowly shakes
A peaceful man can only bend
Before he breaks and makes an end

[Bridge]
The light is gone, the calm is through
There's nothing left, for me to do
But meet the madness, eye to eye
And let the old me. die

[Verse 3]
No more mercy, no more light
Embrace the endless, hateful night
The friendly face is put away
The monster has a role to play

[Final Chorus]
Now the sickness takes, the fever breaks
And all your world begins to shake
You made this end, you made this fate
I am the ugly you create
