Fade Away (Special)

Deliver Me, From This Madness
by No Papertrail

Lyrics
Lost in the chaos, can't find my way
Searching for solace at the break of day
Whispers of sanity, they slip through my grasp
Deliver me, oh, deliver me fast

Shadows are dancing in the corners of my mind
Caught in a whirlwind, lost in the grind
Echoes of silence in a room full of noise
Drowning in the madness, stripped of my voice

I scream to the heavens, is there anyone there
Trapped in this labyrinth, gasping for air
Every step I take, the ground it shakes
A fragile heart, how much can it take

Deliver me from this madness, set me free
Break these chains that bind me, let me be
In the chaos, I find no release
In this whirlwind, grant me peace

Faces around me, they blur and fade
In this tempest, my soul's been swayed
A flicker of hope in the darkest night
Guide me through, to the morning light

I cry to the stars, is there anyone listening
In this maze of confusion, my heart is twisting
Every breath I take, feels like a mistake
A fragile soul, how much can it break

Deliver me from this madness, set me free
Break these chains that bind me, let me be
Through the storm eyes, I search for release
In this darkness, grant me peace

In the quiet moments, when the world’s asleep
I hear a whisper, and a promise to keep
Hold on, hold tight, oh, don't let go
Through the madness, let your spirit grow, eh ey

Deliver me from this madness, set me free
Break these chains that bind me, let me be
In the turmoil, I find no release
From this chaos, grant me peace

Deliver me, deliver me
From this madness, set me free
Whispers of sanity, they slip through my grasp
Deliver me, oh, deliver me fast

One Last Smile For Mandy 
by Ixus

Lyrics
A secret stare
And the wind parts Mandy's hair
Through the forest, unaware, this crystal lair

She still burns
Still burns so bright
Sweet Mandy, dancing in the firelight
Release her tiger from his cage feel his overwhelming rage

And the sand sees her face he knows what he needs
Blood for blood, out of greed, without consent and just to feed

Don't you look at me
Don't you fucking look at me

She still burns still burns so bright
Sweet Mandy, dancing in the firelight
Release her tiger from his cage feel his overwhelming rage

And he set the dreamer free her innocent dream
The flames dancing, so serene please, please Mandy, stay with me

She still burns
She still burns

The brighter the flame, the darker the horror
For her I become the destroyer

Oh my Mandy burned so bright
Her ashes swirling in the ember's light
Release her tiger from his cage smell the blood; don't disengage

She still burns she burns so bright
We used to love the pretty firelight
Release the tiger, set me free, un-cage me so I can avenge thee

Goodbye my tiger-lily
Smile one last time for sweet Mandy

She still burns, she burns so bright
The ashes wash away into the night
So bright, so bright
In the ember light
Dancing in the firelight

'Til The Tender Comes 
by Ixus

About

"'Til The Tender Comes" by Ixus is a track inspired by the 2019 film "The Lighthouse," which portrays the eerie and intense relationship between two lighthouse keepers on an isolated island. The song captures the themes of isolation, madness, and the supernatural elements that are central to the film. It delves into the psychological and physical trials faced by the characters, set against a haunting and atmospheric backdrop.

Lyrics
Bad luck to mess with a sea bird, ye dog
For you're no longer out in the brush
Til' the tender comes, there's no place to go
So we'll share these close quarters, a pawn and a foe

Hark full foul in my fury
The spirits of dead sailors be your jury
You'll be blue and bloated with blackened bilge and brine
By Neptune's skewer with Triton's coral tines

Dum diddle diddle dum dee die
Below your be-shadowed eye
Have it your way it would seem you mistook any insensitive words I said about the way you cook

Bad luck to mess with a sea bird, ye dog
For you're no longer out in the brush
Til' the tender comes, there's no place to go
So we'll share these close quarters, a pawn and a foe

None more fleet in 64' than she
Ti's begrimed and bedabbled by an old wicky
There's an old tar spirit somewhere in you, my lad
And the finest lobster that you've ever had

Well there's no place to flee when the tide is so high
And the rations are soggy we could very well die
We were on the breaks, a mutiny it were
While the wick and the wake shared their dreams about her

Bad luck to mess with a sea bird, ye dog
For you're no longer out in the brush
Til' the tender comes, there's no place to go
So we'll share these close quarters, a pawn and a foe

Diddle diddle eye tay on a mattress so worn
A-blowin' like Gabriel's horn
Will you share the light with me you old sodden salt
For I see you each night in that hypnotizing waltz

Should pale death, and treble dread
Make the ocean caves our bed
God who hear'st the surges roll, deign
To save the suppliant soul

The siren, she called them and dashed on the rocks lie Prometheus, Proteus, and the albatross

Don't leave me here, boy, why'd you spill all yer beans
For the time that we'd spent here is not what it seems
Oh the light I tend cuts through the cruel tempest's fog
And I shalln't entrust this unpredictable dog

Bad luck to mess with a sea bird, ye dog
For you're no longer out in the brush
Til' the tender comes, there's no place to go
So we'll share these close quarters, a pawn and a foe

Oh, tiddle diddle eye do dee
Oh, tiddle diddle diddle hay
Out on a lighthouse
One windy spring day
We shall drink till we're merry
And fight to the death
But you'll never tend the light
As long as I draw breath

Lyrics
The crimewave in old Detroit continues to increase
Fatalities in the police department are reaching critical levels

Once a warrior upholding the law
Rising above the horrors I saw
Stimulated by the thrill of the chase
Exterminated so quickly erased

You belong to us now, son

I am
Dead inside what have you done to me
Reduced to programs, wires and circuitry
I'm inside a ghost in the machine
Dead or alive, you're coming with me

Memories the flashes of the past
Rearranged in two lines of code at last
They brought me back without my human voice
Restricted me with code, removing any choice

Memories just flashes of a dream
Rearranged now only a machine

You have 15 seconds to comply
You have 10 seconds to comply

I am
Dead inside what have you done to me
Reduced to programs, wires and circuitry
I'm inside a ghost in the machine
Dead or alive, you're coming with me

Ah hah hah hah hah hah I'd buy that for a dollar

I am
Dead inside what have you done to me
Reduced to programs, wires and circuitry
I'm inside a ghost in the machine
Dead or alive, you're coming with me

You crossed a line
And now it's time
Mistakes were made
That must now be erased
Multination
Conglomerations
Military contracts
We had everything

I-I-I-I-I-I-I like it
You're dead
We killed you

Awakening inside what have you done to me
Reduced to programs, wires and circuitry
I'm inside a ghost in the machine
Dead or alive, you're coming with me
Murphy Is that you What did they do to you

Aaaaaahhh
A-a-a-a-a-a-aaa-a-a-a-aaahhh
It's okay to look away
You might not like what you see
This is just a machine
This is not really me

Awakening inside what have you done to me
Reduced to programs, wires and circuitry
I'm inside a ghost in the machine
Dead or alive, you're coming with me

You now have 10 seconds to comply
I think you'd better do what it says

Bridges Burned 
by Q8Q

Lyrics
Every single bridge I’ve ever built has gotten burned
Life is flowing forwards, time is rolling backwards
Maybe what I wanted really was a big mistake
If I knew the answers before I heard the question
Maybe we could key the lock and slip right through the gates

Every single bridge I’ve ever built has gotten burned
Things are slowly changing, they have progressive natures
Turning into someone that I can’t defend
I am really thankful, blessed that we still vibing
Amidst the noise and chaos we make it all worthwhile

Every single bridge I’ve ever built has gotten burned
The flames are burning higher, make the night sky brighter
Maybe what I wanted really was a big mistake
Time keeps moving sideways, the past is now a pathway
Maybe we could pick the lock and slip right through the gates

Every single bridge I’ve ever built has gotten burned
Life is flowing forwards, time is rolling backwards
Maybe what I wanted really was a big mistake
If I knew the answers before I heard the question
Maybe we could key the lock and slip right through the gates

Foolish Love 
by ♥ Monster Crush ♥

Lyrics
Hey, baby
Why do you have your head weighed down
Is it because you're looking for something that can't be found
You know we try to get by
You know we always have to have that control
You know you ought to let go

Time keeps on spinning but you’re still stuck in the sand
Drowning in the accumulation since you first began
The struggle and every grasp you make
Causing you to sink further so you can’t escape

You can’t find
You can’t find
You can’t find so walk away

You can’t find love
You can’t find love
You can’t find love
Love knows how to show itself

The hourglass tips over and breaks
The world is an oyster for you to take

Pushing against the grains feeling each spec against your skin
Blood oozes out from every scrape you might as well give in

Flow with the current
Flow with the current
And ride that wave

You can’t find love
You can’t find love
You can’t find love
Throw yourself into the fool’s journey

Foolish Love

Foolish Love by ♥ Monster Crush ♥

I felt I met you in a dream
Like a pixelated scene
VHS tapes, memories
Or something in between
I felt our love was fuzzy
Like a noisy, static stream
All I wanted, ever wanted
Was just you and me

These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
I miss your touch so much
How could we stay in love
Nowadays when I think about then
We lost our connection
Late nights and later days
How could we fall apart

I thought I saw you through a lens
Like a worn-out magazine
Polaroid snaps, capturing
Moments in between
Our love was like a cassette
Playing on a broken theme
All I needed, ever needed
Was just you and me

These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
I miss your touch so much
How could we stay in love
Nowadays when I think about then
We lost our connection
Late nights and later days
How could we fall apart

I felt I met you in a dream
Like a pixelated scene
VHS tapes, memories
Or something in between
I felt our love was fuzzy
Like a noisy, static stream
All I wanted, ever wanted
Was just you and me

These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
I miss your touch so much
How could we stay in love
These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
I miss your touch so much
How could we stay in love
Nowadays when I think about then
We lost our connection
Late nights and later days
How could we fall apart

I thought I saw you through a lens
Like a worn-out magazine
Polaroid snaps, capturing
Moments in between
Our love was like a cassette
Playing on a broken theme
All I needed, ever needed
Was just you and me

These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
I miss your touch so much
How could we stay in love
Nowadays when I think about then
We lost our connection
Late nights and later days
How could we fall apart

All I ever really wanted
(If I'm really being honest)
But I never could have said
(If I'm really being honest)
All I ever really wanted
(If I'm really being honest)
But I never could have said
(If I'm really being honest)
All I ever really wanted
(If I'm really being honest)
But I never could have said
(If I'm really being honest)
But now you've gone

These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
These days when I think about us
Cafés and cappuccinos
These days when I think about us
I think I fell in love

Serpentis Lapis 
by Ixus

Lyrics
When will the stones I hold...
Tell me scales what will unfold?
THROUGH THE DESERT UNDERNEATH THE STARS!
I need you please - to tell me child, can I restore us?
Assembled like an ouroboros! 
Put down my pen - enter in the shroud
As you disappear above the clouds
Leave me, crows, on the road alone
To slither to the serpent's stone!

The cobra slinks along his tracks
Through colored smoke he coughs and hacks

Winds of war tear down the mast
The armored beast forgets about his past...

(Alone! Away! afraid!)
The scars on the snake
Trauma for the time it takes
The mustangs trample through his brain
No longer sure if he's ever truly awake!

And what difference would it make?

When will the stones I hold...
Tell me scales what will unfold?
THROUGH THE DESERT UNDERNEATH THE STARS!
I need you please - to tell me child, can I restore us?
Assembled like an ouroboros! 
I pull the bullet
From the glass
And reach up where the rocket passed

I bare my fangs and turn the gun
Towards the mountain and the sun!

FIRE!
FIRE!

When will the stones I hold...
Tell me scales what will unfold?
THROUGH THE DESERT UNDERNEATH THE STARS!
I need you please - to tell me child, can I restore us?
Assembled like an ouroboros! 

The cobra
At the end of the river
The screams
His fellow beast delivers 
In those dark, empty concrete halls...
The night finally falls.

Green night! 
Pretending to be the crow
He sets the field alight! 
The serpent's cradle glows...
Steel driving hope
The ladder at the end
Of the rope  

Climb again!
Use the scars inside
Become the crow
When you need to fly!

Your armored scales...
No longer on the ground
The mountain stands ahead
You sit inside the sound

Slither back to me, my snake!
Come toward my voice and kneel
Hither to me, in my talons
What did your crusade reveal? 

Serpentis lapis!

Flowing down the mountainside

Serpentis lapis!

Come to me - and decide...
Serpentis lapis...

So many years you've been denied...

Serpentis lapis...

The world can never subjugate your pride...

Serpentis lapis
Do you hear my voice?
Serpentis lapis
Through the engine's noise?
Serpentis lapis!
You'll see your graves another day...
Come with me, my calloused beast, follow as I lead the way.

Lyrics

I'm drowning in air
No one cares
Sideways
Sliding down
I drown in air
Down where
I drown in air
I need you
To see me
Drowning in air
There
A waterfall
Her colorful hair
So fair
Each strand I would turn to black
Take a deep breath
There's nothing there
And I am nowhere
I'm drowning but no one cares
I am nowhere
I am nowhere
Drowning but no one cares
I want to stay
Say you care
Across the quiet air
So much
I care
I'll always
Be there
Please know I care
Don't go
Take a deep breath
Release
Your cares
Leaves are bare
If you're not there
Please stay
I care
And you will always
Be there

Conversation with the Void
by Ixus | (Official) | UEC Records

About

"Conversation with the Void" by Ixus is a haunting and introspective journey through the cosmic and existential abyss. The song explores themes of nihilism, the absurdity of existence, and the ultimate confrontation with the void, blending melodic progressive black metal with jazz and dark synthwave elements. It captures the chaotic and mysterious nature of the universe with complex, atmospheric, and hypnotic soundscapes.

Lyrics

My objections
To these afflicted cosmos
My needless journey
Across these eyeless skies
And the absurdity

I must converse with the void now
Plot our defeat
Plot our defeat

I will gnaw at the fabric of space until it bleeds
Scratch through, so I can see the other side
Clawing open my eyes so I can see beyond time
Show me the eyes of the universe
So I can rip them out
I must converse with the void now
The goddess of zero

Infected
With life
Infected
With life

Call upon me to exterminate
All matter
All mathematics

I must converse with the void now
While it swallows me whole

I have smashed every entrance, I have pulled up the rope
Out of spite
This gift of non-existence is the genocide of hope
As I turn out the light

Screaming
This infinite meat grinder
Reduced to its smallest parts
There's no hereafter
Just battered until it doesn't exist

Anymore

Wretched sea
Of gravity
What have you ever done for me

I have unmade you
And I have been unmade

I rise above again
I've killed chaos with itself
Drifting through space
When there's no more space
Frozen without time

I return from my journey
And no longer exist
