A dark wave

A dark wave
From yonder
Behind the seven seas
And seven mountains
We heard it coming
A silent rustling
Then the trembling ground
The frequency increased
The hits came closer
Then we found ourselves
Right in middle of
A toxic storm
People lost their empathy
Assholes showed
Their true colours
We still ignored
The needy in the streets
And the Lord threw up
In utter disgust
From his creation
Dark wave
Invisible wave
Rolls over us

Blue apple

Blue Apple
Mom tried to break your feet
To make you a lotus girl
She let you limp free
When the little bird unfurled
You starred in cheesy films
No hint of new order in sight
Wooing the supreme leader
Easy for someone so bright
You took revenge on all those folks
Peeping from behind the blinds
Irate mother superior
Controlled the people's minds
Unleashed manipulated masses
On people cult and art
Decadent bourgeois classes
Of which once you were part
You thought you were invulnerable
No target for revenge
When the tiger proved attackable
They plucked you in the henge
They found you in the orchard
Strange fruit in apple tree
Suspended bloated tortured
Blue apple for all to see
Blue Apple - Power and an inferiority complex don't go well together

Tomorrow people
What will we do
Flying in our cars every week
Or stumble anew
Through charred landscapes bleak
Can't keep control anymore
Will we have evolved
To creatures having vanquished death
Or radiation sickness
Crawling around out of breath
Can't keep control anymore
Ordering a partner online
Fastfood love immediate success
Or queuing up for goods in line
Afraid of a new and frightening illness
Can't keep control anymore
No more illness
Creatures stern to behold
Or blistering digress
Starving there out in the cold
Can't keep control anymore

Perseids
Make a wish
The stars flit by
I try to fly
Moving by
Glaring eye
Make a wish
Staring look
Cast iron hook
In a gruelling book
A chance you took
Make a wish
Chance and fears
Choking tears
Burning spears
Over the years
Make a wish

Dissociation

Dissociation
He's looking at you
Blue piercing gaze
Profound and true
In the morning haze
Almond shaped
Looks that kill
Blue well gaped
Sensual thrill
Watch myself from high above
Whistle soundless endless tunes
He leaves a stain
Above drifts my mind
Can't feel any pain
Emotionally blind
My body's a shell
These aren't my limbs
No feeling unwell
Away in a glimpse
Watch myself...
Mom raises hand
Whacking me twice
Dad's whipping band
But there are no cries
Ain't making love
Remote sensation
I watch from above
My body's elation
Watch myself...

Sulphur

Sulphur
Sulphurous light outside
While I wait for the onset of night
Who am I to decide
Between ardour or delight
Silently sing your tune of doom
Of abandonment in the gloom
Thunder rolls far away
While I wait for the end of the day
I shouldn't be so fey
And meet you next Saturday
Silently sing your tune of doom
Of abandonment in the gloom
Dark souls are to meet
As I walk along the street
You will make me bleed
While you smack a cane on my feet
Silently sing your tune of doom
Of abandonment in the gloom
Searching for the bug
When I could enjoy just a hug
Call me a creep or a thug
While I am trying my luck
Silently sing your tune of doom
Of abandonment in the gloom

Bodies

Bodies
39 bodies in the back of a truck
Sickening-sweet stench hits you in the gut
Faces contorted by fear in the muck
Entangled asphyxiated and struck
39 lashes for stirring uproar
Run away nothing worth fighting for
Trembling in the trenches tired and sore
This car's the getaway this vehicle more
39 minutes and silence has struck
After passengers gasping were running amok
Mouth gaping wide open and thunderstruck
39 bodies in the back of a truck
Why, oh why, fucking why?

Nausea

Nausea
Beating heart in a kidney bowl
Wriggling worms on a decrepit skull
Neonazis trampling heads
Police arresting the victims instead
Clergy raping acolytes
Daddy shagging daughter at night
Blaming son-in-law jerk
Head held up high in kirk
Singing hymns trashing beggars
Cooking soap from human fat
Leaked out of gas chambers
Judges exculpating industrial dread
Action T4 every day
On levels small to large
