Songs From A Constellation

Forever Fire

Forever Fire - Andy Oppenheimer and Crystalline Stricture

Come home, to repeat the death
Soleness inside this berth
Silence and i feel unsafe! I hate here!
Voice inside my head, always sounding!

Father hates mom
Father took a pill to cool down himself
It’s such, a word, that I never want to
be rolling, in my head, in my head
It’s a, such, a word, that I never want to
be rolling, in my head, in my head

This home, repeating my death
The void feels my wrath
Silence and i feel unsafe! I hate here!
Voice inside my head, always sounding!

Father hates mom
Father took a pill to cool down himself
It’s such, a word, that I never want to
be rolling, in my head, in my head

God! Look at me, I can’t stop myself
This wounds will never heal
God give me, your light to lead me!

It’s a, such, a word, that I never want to
be rolling, in my head, in my head

God! Look at me, I can’t stop myself
This wounds will never heal
God give me, your light to lead me!

God! Look at me, I Can't stop myself
The wounds will never heal
God give me, your light to lead me
Your light to lead me

Durch Den Nebel (Doomer Edit)

Anoixth Kardia

All you thinking now -
something to be proud -
lands in purple trail of meadows -

but the scent of billion flowers
looks like rotten when i get 
close enough to touching them

How could your shadow
from the gallows - rule the world
howl in a narrow 
flow of a bloody - open heart

On the bliss the sound
everything goes loud
till the night will load a fever

And the phantom at your door -
never, never leaves you  sleep -
when you ask to be alone - 
How did your trouble - 
to end up silent , in my arms
i come to follow - 
in the shallow of your heart

when the devils on the roof
are keep alive and build the frost
in a fleeting sense of truth
miasmas rise from the past
while they stun sense in the glass
moorings drop like rags

i come to follow ,
in the shallow of your arms
i am the sorrow in a hollow robbed heart

Lyrics:
There is something
I can hear it
It hurts, it can't be good
What is good anyways?
I can hear it
It hurts
It hurts so much

Can you hear the mourning of ourselves
I can't push it away anymore
You don't want to hear the mourning of yourself
Try to push it away

Do you really think you can handle this?
You can handle this?

Do you really think you can handle this?
Then handle this!
Don't say a thing now
Just handle this!
What are you doing now?
Just take back your control!
  
Can you hear the mourning of ourselves
I can't push it away anymore
You don't want to hear the mourning of yourself
Try to push it away

Somehow I like the mourning of myself
I don't want to push it away anymore
I like the mourning of myself
Maybe I should push it away

Do you really think you can handle this?
Then handle this!
Don't say a thing now
Just handle this!
What are you doing now?
Just take back your control!

english:

Between the cold and the ashes,
A tree grows hastily,
It catches fire.

Dizzy time and manner,
What do the trees in the forest ultimately seek?
Do they exist in nature,
Or can't they exist nowhere?

Light, at birth,
Mother Earth with her dead mother,
They ask for no one.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
ανάμεσα στο ψύχος και τη στάχτη
ένα δέντρο που φυτρώνει βιαστικά
παίρνει φωτιά
ζαλισμένος ο χρόνος και ο τρόπος
τα δέντρα στο δάσος τι γυρεύουν τελικά;
υπάρχουνε στη φύση
ή δεν μπορούν να υπάρξουν πουθενά;

φως, στη γέννα
η μητέρα γη με τη νεκρή της μητέρα
δε ζητάνε κανέναν.

kama muta - δε ζητάνε κανέναν

Epic Dreams - Kein Paradies

Marascia - The Mood

I started to make this song in a lesson with Peter Power last year. Now I am sooo happy to have finished this song (as much as you can finish a song...:) and to share it with you.

Thank you Peter for your support and for inspiring my confidence and creativity.

This song is evolving around a voice sample from Stephan Micus - Violeta and a drum groove from Just Friends - Avalanche.

Enjoy.

Lyrics:

I want to see you the night before
to illusion blazes in autumn rain.
In any language there is no word
to refering what could't love the less

But when the silence invade my home
i close my eyes and appears your face.
No way to hide it inside my soul:
from brain projector, from mirror heart.

Don't to forget then where it belong
that lovely eyes with Medusa's glance.
The only ones that make me a stone,
the only ones that...

In my silence
fell the rain drops falling after
we can earn the dripping noiseless
other things lost petrified
in a sound that i love to.

I want to see you
the night before
to illusion blazes
in autumn rain.

In any language there is no word
to refering what could't love the less

But when the silence invade my home
i close my eyes and appears your face.

No way to hide it inside my soul:
from brain projector, from mirror heart.

Don't to forget then where it belong
that lovely eyes with Medusa's glance.
