Golem


For endless years and years 
Now I roam the outer void 
And the boring same old games 
Are meaninglessly repeated 

All my wealth and energy 
Insufficient substitutes for a life 
That I exchanged for a desire 
That never will be satisfied 

(lead - Mai) 

I spin my net, in a sinister black 
So monstrous, my degeneration 
Where the careless gain sorrow 
And all their greed brings pain 

Invisible for the ungifted 
And doomed by my darkness 
I take their material legacy 
And defile their fragile mortality 

Solitude feeds my fatal lust 
Vast deadly traps are hidden 
Raped by the light of the rose 
I teach them in devotion 

All these harmless victims 
Their fight without prospects 
Finalizing my supremacy 
And a welcome to my isolation 

Then raise my pride 
My insidious bride 
Narcotising my emptiness 
By a senseless eagerness 

And the hungry teeth of time devour 
What I used to be in ancient past 
And decades flow into the void 
To bring up this stiff monument
