What horror shall follow the moment When even the eternal music Of men who stood higher than gods Cannot bring relief anymore? What words shall be used to describe The sorrow which nothing can cure? What requiem shall be played As life descents into habit And slowly becomes an error? Hail Time, torturer of all! What horror shall follow the moment When even the eternal music Of men who stood higher than gods Cannot bring relief anymore? And agony consumes any shred of peace As every choice ever made is called into question What pleasure shall be enough To overshadow the pain for a mystery That will never be experienced? Hail Time, torturer of all! Insignificance, as I stand below the stars Rejoicing as their beauty reminds me Who I am Insignificance, a moment of bliss

For just a moment desire takes over and I am enslaved in body and mind it feeds me with hope and denial but everything becomes so clear I see moons and stars rising and falling I see galaxies travelling within the veil of time and space I see swallows dancing to every current of the wind I see the drops of rain The colors of Iris engulfed in a sphere I see the smile of pain So familiar that brings no fear For just a moment desire takes over and I am enslaved in body and mind it feeds me with hope and denial but everything becomes so clear I see coasts draped in warm sunlight I see vineyards stretching far and wide I see clouds flirting with the night I see a Muse standing by my side I see where the meaning of all Is born and then dies The essence of beauty burning within two eyes

Listen to the eternal scream A product of pain For a life never lived And never will be For the dreams that remain dreams Beyond the wall of sleep Listen to the eternal scream A product of pain For the sun that never shined And beauty remained unseen For the moon that never rose And loneliness lost its meaning Listen to the eternal scream A product of pain That will echo through the eons That are to come Listen to the eternal scream A product of pain For a man who lived in fear And now night haunts him For the thoughts that become unbearable As the days pass by Listen to the eternal scream A product of pain For the words never spoken And truths died in silence In pain, in vain, in total nothingness Listen to the eternal scream A product of power That awaits its birth As agony and pleasure collide
