The Nibiruan lyrics by The Nibiruan

1. Losing the Light

Serenity with all tranquillity Vanished with a dream gone out of season The hot blood of youth Trails to marble halls You took me by your hand To gilded pictures on the walls God how I loath them But feel the need to kneel before them False kings can make every jester To do the death´s dance to their tune Confusion in illusion Closing in - closing to lead astray Past days I knew my way Now I know I am but losing the Light For not all lights warm Nor shine, nor guide As along the way Treacherous phantasms can drain out An open hard and soul Wounded on the road These roads lead nowhere - yet I must walk them The empty streets and empty nights Empty hearts, their empty rhymes Emptiness fills my mind Separated from the Light In a stranger is a friend Watching your back - waiting to gun you down Hold on to your cap n´bells As I´ll sing you like in days of old Of kings and queens of yesterday Turned knaves of tomorrow´s court And with scepters rusted Now sowing no more sorrow Like autumn´s last leaves falling I know because I am one Confusion in illusion Closing in - closing to lead astray Past days I knew my way Now I know I am but losing the Light Faint flashes in the cold city nights Yet they blind me as I stare The empty streets and empty nights Empty hearts, their empty rhymes Emptiness fills my mind With all but one I can live All the wounds can forgive Should I once again see the Light Where are your dreams, your high ideals now? Did you drink them up or cough them up Or burn them up in smoke and vapour?

2. The Dream of a Seer

Last rays of sunlight tear the veil Between vision and reality As fires light the autumn skies I feel Borders of my mind reaching beyond me The rational steps aside From the dreams I can no longer hide As welkin dances in moonlight´s glare In front of revelations my mind lays bare The piercing pain and its veiled hate Of what was broken by misery of fate No longer more than words a mime It troubles me united with the sublime And now I see The shadows and reflections Elusive shapes and projections The vision vortex is arising Gazing to a mirror Scrying with a transcendent stare Future´s frontier is nearer As ancestors their wisdom share Amids the shadow´s dance Ruined cities and barren land A grim prophecy within a glance Of a future to be painted with a burning hand Teared eyes through Aeons Eyes filled with terror stare at me As at the spectre of Death Casting me out from vision divine The mirror´s image stops my breath - That burning hand is mine. Trembling I hit the ground Laying still as in my burial mound Soon rays of Sun will repair the thin veil they every night tear And the Vision fades at the break of day

3. Valediction

The Light illuminates the darkened cells of life The Wave banishes the past The Dream evokes a spirit flux The Passion unites self with the now And as a storm it arises Fervour that once was... ...Passion - now shrouded in hatred, Burnt by frustration, rusted in acid rain On avenues swarming with with scoundrels and knaves Kneeling before their lust as whores and slaves Spawn of the night - drain my spirit! In my veins boils the sap of a satyr The minutes they melt in to hours The hours they melt in to days The past melts into the Now One leaves the Now When passion is lost along the winding path And the storm feeds The fervour that is now A myriad of lights shine again - But still in my veins flows the poison of mandragore ´´Memory is but pain trying to resurrect itself´, but what is there to resurrect when I can´t remember. God I hate this fucking darkness. Where did I loose myself? I have forgotten now for I feel weary. Fuck, I have to focus...´ ...to find the Now And once again these weary eyes Through life blinded by Passion´s demise Are afire zeal of Eros´ shrine Burning the darkness like fires divine Spawn of the night I shall be no more For in my veins boils the Spirit of All Life The storm and the fervour As a gyre of passion Encompass my mind The Light transcends the darkness The Wave corrodes the fetters of agony The Dream evokes the wisdom of Anima Mundi The Passion unites the self and the Now And as I leave the darkness I leave without hatred and without sorrow Without anger or tears for tomorrow And though I may never return here I shall never fade away for I shall live Forever In these words.
