"A TASTE OF THE AMBROSIA" lyrics
"A TASTE OF THE AMBROSIA"
On the altar of elation
My offering laid bare
A craving for sensation
Famine haunts the soul
Who had a taste of the ambrosia
A disciple of bedlam in chrysalis
Concealed in acts of composure
I walked the sacred hallways
Of obsession and deceit
I waded muddy rivers
Of vanity and conceit
My hunger ever deeper
And I willed it so
Drenched in chaos
Thus, I willed it
On tightropes, I ventured across
Those chasms of nausea and fear
To overcome the man I was
For a taste of the ambrosia
From the hollow skulls of the dead
Poured the nectar of oblivion
And I drenched my trepidations
In the blood of innocence
Weighted by despondency
I sank into acceptance
And to the sound of singing sirens
Transformation had commenced

Paradise Lost - "The Devil Embraced" I'm tired of dreams, I'm tired of almost everything
Dreams deceive and living never lasts
Too tired to sleep, denial of grief awakes my sins
Too weak to breathe, from living in deaths hands...
Persefone - "Living Waves" I transcend
I flow
I am the ocean
I vibrate
Behold, the sound of a living
I live behind the screen of thought
Projections have no substance here
A slender thread informs my life
I taste the coals...
