The Thrash Of Naked Limbs



Beauty is fragile, and time eats at it

This passion play

Smothered in effort, The thrash of naked limbs

Glistening skin

Close your eyes, the whispered sighs

Frightening lust

Sweet was her breath, tasted by mine

Words are more effective when concealed

Through the halflight on her body

My fearful hands tremble their way

Take me, anywhere that you like

Hold me, deep within. Do what you like

Take me, anywhere. Warm the night

Take me, take me, take me

With the lights low, and you naked on the warm floor

Me beside you, softly kissing, caressing

Make love to her while she's crying

I could die now, and die happy



Le Cerf Malade



Il en coute A qui vous reclame

Medecins du corps et de l'ame

O temps! O moeurs! J'ai beau crier

Tout le monde se fait payer



Gather Me Up Forever



The pain never stops

The race ignore me

I sit here twisted, and it hurts me.

The Son is near

His way made for him

Among the hopes

Ten thousand suffering

Oh how my heart aches

The brilliant stories cascade about me

To be handsome again

Thou art all deformed, and I feel your pain

What I touch with my hand, I touch with my heart.

The affection of stillness

Kiss the hand that blesses me

And as the panting ceased

My blood runs now fierce

This when I was young, before I knew nothing

Now I'm the hunted, for the guilt that stains my hands.



I Am The Bloody Earth



Lay down with beasts, and welter in my gore

Fill your cups of Christ. I am the bloody earth

Bright, riding in heaven. The player in rags

White Bat is death? Feed it to pigs



Rise to be a king, shining with power

Down silent avenues, I live on



Life You owe yours to me

Wear Me around your neck

Kneel And cry for me

Son Father please help me



Safe delivery of a handsome child

Merry and sweet looking

My endeavours to rise seem useless

But I will fight the distance between us
