The Poison of Self Confinement - Blistered

I could be foreign forever To your otherland I could be foreign forevermore To your promiseland One life was great but another No, I don't want to live on the edge I won't follow you, I found my own I will stay I could be foreign forever To your hasteland I could be foreign forevermore To your neverland One little brick then another And I will build that wall anyway You can find me there, rested and calm Without mask This is where I will stay Look around where we are, who we are What we always want Twenty-four-seven-three-sixty-five Sometimes little more I was chasing your shadow Not knowing I'd become your slave I could be foreign forever To your otherland I could be foreign forevermore To your promiseland One life was great but another No, I don't want to live on the edge I won't follow you, I found my own I will stay I could stay forevermore I've said a farewell To never-ending smiles I did not look good in red From my place I can finally See how much Of this shade I called Myself Was me And what was left behind I could be foreign forever To your otherland I could be foreign forevermore To your promiseland One life was great but another No, I don't want to live on the edge I won't follow you, I found my own I will stay I could stay forevermore I've said a farewell To never-ending smiles From my place I can finally see How much of this shade Was me And what was left behind

Reigning at the feast of phantasia Heightened pleasures were endeavoured to bow Before my coronation and vocal aspirations To rule this fool creation fallen 'neath me now I knew deep eyes Of a distant Christ Were scarred from afar under starry lustre Sighting my recitals on the rites of vice Perverting virtue Enslaving grace Behind the glittering mask of pride Saving face finding thorns to pierce His side Desire, the fire Spread hell throughout my soul And higher the wire The more I sought control Straining from the leash in exultation Head to the wind to breathe with ravenous lungs The global scent of fornication A writhe of many vipers deciphering tongues I whispered schemes to dreamers then To pursue an Eden That screamed of me supreme again As my world bloomed So too the moon Through Adam to Seth, Enos, Cainan Mahalaleel and Jared blew Perverting virtue Enslaving grace Behind the slippery guise of lies Saving face making waves to drown their faith Messiahs, pariahs Aeons reversed the two Thus higher, their sprites The more cursed grew their roots And suffering I swept cruel seas On the galley of the shadow of death A fist in the cunt of the spread horizon A kiss for the sun risen red once dined on The coast of Menses Discharged from celestial wombs A first degree murder of ravens Followed in fugue through the crack of doom The goat of Mendes I set regime In the galley of the shadow of death Angels in raiments As pure as coal Taking their payments In tortured mortal souls A bold direction The abyss edge But on cold reflection One they warmed to nonetheless As they preyed the paths of the righteous Through the myth of thistled orchard floors Bearing gifts of plenitude, for the apples of the Lord were rotten to the core Temptation, my ambassador Attila, Herod, Pharisees and Nero All begged of me for more Down dark steps of history I waged a war with a Heaven I could not see Beyond my wildest fantasies Throwing sixes over deadly sin I traded those who played to win Skin for precious kin And that that wormed within Staining the reams of revelation Etching ever-afters in accursed verse The limpid rags of resurrection From papal parapets were to dirt dispersed Desire, the flyers Spread hell throughout their souls And higher the fire The more I held control

Desolate loving in your eyes You used to make my life so sweet Step out like a God-found child I saw your eyes across the street Who would be the fool to take you Be more than just kind To stare into a life of maybe?

People gazed, and people said It looked so beautiful, when you two danced Oh, it was magical, we all could tell He really loves you, too, in his own way Yes, that is right All this is true But it's not magic No, it's just the booze Whisky brings out the love in him A love that, when he's sober He cannot feel I was all new to this spirits thing I just did not know, 'cause I never used to drink I wondered, how a bond that seemed so strong When we were together be suddenly gone Well, it's quite simple, nothing is real It's only the alcohol that he feels I had to learn all this the hardest way His love disappeared Came the light of day It's quite confusing And awfully cruel You feel like an idiot A goddamn fool When the love that you feel for him Was never the drugs But in fact the real thing Yes, it is sad But sadly it's true There is no magic There is only booze Whisky brings out his love for me A love that, when he's sober He never feels
