Traumatic Voyage - Traumatized... lyrics



Tracks



02. Occultation

Dark is my soul
Morbid are my dreams
Demonic thoughts closed in my head!

A brutal flash of negative energy crushes throughout my mortal frame

Illuminated by mental violence I watch the world from above!

Occultation...to be heartless
Emotions are meaningless
I despise your praises of love
My will is unbreakable!

Occultation...brought deliverance
I am what I want to be
And when I lay in my darkness
You could never reach me!

My mind...occultated
Wisdom comes from inside
In the dark...occult knowledge
A question of perspective!

Put on your rotten crown of the "creation-lie"
And perish in the face of my embodiement!!!

After ages in the eternal darkness between the worlds
Far away from the astral corpses of a dying race
My eyes have learned to see through the reflection
The source of light...lies...behind the blinding bright!

You believe in moralistic lies
While you try to escape from the truth
Mass hypnosis!!!...identity denial
Confrontated with the silent shadows of solitude
Your mind will decay under your constructed neurosis
Your injected psychosis!

For one cycle I've decided
To be a witness of the human senselessness
Immortal...and bodiless
I travel through space and time!

Occultation of my spirit
No way back to their dying light!!!

03. Levitation

Never I will fall on that impure floor again
The ground that once was my reality lies now far under me

Like water that flows up to heaven
I leave the chains of gravitation behind
Nothing can hold me back in this infected world
I'm on the way into a new sphere
I never dreamed my life...I live my dream!

04. Intensification

As I fall, fall down
Down, where I ever want to be
In the deepest abyss of my black psyche
Where all my different faces become one
My thoughts diving into the naked substance of
The everflowing stream of my mental energy

All I be...deep in me
Intensified...and brought to life
The abstract structure of my spiritual existence
Is a constant growing labyrinth!

Der Geist ist der Schlüssel zur Pforte in die Ewigkeit!

To master life...I had to be dead
To perceive myself...I have to live my dreams
To survive this temporal reality
I have to pass over all limits
To expand my consciousness into infinity
I dance with the dead at night
And raise my volition to that throne upon the stars!

The martyr suffers a thousand deaths
Before your eyes...one by one...he dies!

For you to learn
What you never will understand
Ruins of flesh you're damned to rot
In the "safety" of your slavestate-mind!

I close my eyes and stare into the dark universe inside
Where all those shadows of myself flow together into deepest black

Intensify...all of me...what I am...in my dreams
In me I found peace across the horizon
With the wind my mind is travelling
To the source in the afterlife
where the sleeping in me awakes to life!

A black hole opens in my subconsciousness
The gate into a mental world
Where reality is just a remembrance!

All is forgiven
All is forgotten

In the bittersweet solitude in here
No more fear...all grief is gone
Now I have returned...returned to myself
Back to where I am...and where I ever was
In those dark places...my words will be heard
By the deafening silence of the night
A more attentive listener than every human ear
All answers are given by myself!

Hear my voice
The tongue of cries!

Intensification
Into the ocean of my soul
Underwater
I will breath and live on!

The old god lies dying in the bleeding heart of mankind
All beauty fades under their impure feet
You think you can submit everyone and everything
So look into my eyes and see the downfall of your materialistic dreams!

As I die...die alone
Leave this world forever
All those senseless tragedies
Of this unnecessary, mortal world
Are left far behind
And I'm on my way...now I'm free!

06. Concentric Trance

The uniqueness of my fantasy created the impossible
My imagination leaves the transistoriness of reality!

"...seit wir Gott abgeschafft haben, haben wir nur noch Unsselbst
um den sinnlosen Horror des Lebens zu klären!"

The exstatic flood is unleashed
Endorphyns are flowing over
My neurological basement
See my black aura shine!

As I push my concentration
Into the centre of my subconscious universe!

Concentric trance
Through the crimson river I swim
All doubts are left behind!
Abstract intoxication
My consciousness is open wide

The final horizon has fallen!

What could you reach with your intelligence
When you don't know how to use it?
Confused by your own heretical doctrines
You run into the fatality of believing!

Black holes in my remembrance
In which my childhood is lost
I've washed away all those unnecessary pictures
Of my past lives!

Of my past lives!

I've cleaned my mind from all of what I've learned from you
In the forgotten phases of my existence
Your "sanity" is nothing I ever wanted

Thinking...the principle of existence
Mental moving...my soul is brought into life!

Thoughts inspired by blue clouds of mystic smoke
Distant realities near before my eyes
Unlogic created the human ways of life
My destiny is independent from those lies you see as a sense!
Soulless zombies... rotten alive!!!!

Concentric trance
Insanity as a cure from the "sickness humanity"
The divine immunity of my obscure intellect
Far beyond on the other side of normality
I've found illumination in myself!

08. Purified Ego

I am the god which needs no believers
The master without slaves
In a lifeless winterland
Beyond all those ridiculous tragedies
Which made a human life

Genetic, human nothingness!

The mystification of death and what's behind
Is symbolized in the depth of my soul
YOUR PHANTASMAGORIA COULDN'T FEAR ME ANYMORE
DEATH IS THE FINISHING OF MY FLESH!
I've pulled myself out of that unclean sea
Of senseless emotions you call humanity!
THE ESSENTIAL RESTLESSNESS OF MY THOUGHTS
KEEPS MY SPIRIT FOREVER ALIVE!!!!!

FOREVER DEAD...DEAD AND ALIVE!!!

I've enjoyed the burning pain inside
Destructive flames of self-perception

I know all the bitterness
And tears of a tormented soul
Falling into my innerself
In my ancient immortal soul!

The flickering candles of your insignificant lives
Will be blown out by the upcoming storms of chaos
THE LONG FORETOLD ARMAGEDDON IS AT HAND!!!!
ALMIGHTY CHAOS...DELIVER US FROM ORDER!!!!

My alert mind penetrates the substance of my subliminal dreamworld
On the wings of my imagination I travel to a place where only I could be
Where fantasy is reality
I walk through the unbreakable mirror of life and become one with myself!

PURIFIED EGO
I'm the lord of my decisions
None else can stand above me
PURIFICATION
To resist your spider love in union
They lost themselves!

Your future is the golden cage
In which a bird never learns to fly
Like in an open book I can read in
The weak, mutilated remains of your collected spirit
Useless words of pain and suffering
In your wounds I crawl
To discover all those harmful beliefs
From which you consist of!

The lightless flame of illumination
Burns through the infinte labyrinth of my lunatic mind
IN MY HELL I BURN...BURN ALONE

Bloodshot lines under my eyes
To read about those dark experiences
In the unknown dimensions
Of an insane mind
A neverending ego-trip on the deadline
Without return!

09. Dream-Evocation

I am dreaming but I'm awake
The dreamworld I've called arises from deep within
I am dead and sleeping...but still alive
I take a long deep breath
And watch strange clouds drifting to a new horizon
An unknown world
Created by the everdreaming in me
Behind the walls of sleep I saw the unbelievable
Never I will return to that senseless life behind
This dream is now my reality!!!!!

10. Unreality

At the edge of that mortal daylight
A plague that I despise
Behind the black curtain of the night
In the darkness where all human fears have their source
And nightmares awake to torture the sleeping with their "sins"
Reality is never what it seems to be!

The golden emperor is rising again
My hatred will be yours until the eternal darkness
Of the universe will take your place again!
Children of the sun
Your god will soon end your imperfection
Mankind's history will fall into oblivion
when no one is left to remember!

In the night where unreality lives
The world of shadows obscure the land
In the night my spirit stand above the weak humanity
And all of their written and unwritten laws!

I've dedicated my life to the darkside
Here, where the worldly eyes are useless
My spiritual eyes can see the invisible!

Burned-out fleshghosts of the light-order
My traumatic world will forever be!
A dismal riddle for you!
Insanity can never be shared!!!!

I raise my head to the mesmerizing, pale moon
As a god I awake in a dream of life
Where the sun never shines lies eternity
Inside those walls of flesh you see as me!

And when I lying there...dead for you
Dead for your unknowing eyes

My soul travels over lands
Which no human feet have ever touched!

Philosophy of the night
Wordless and silent
Independence of solitude
The identity of "evil"

Through the unyielding will to self-realisation
I've created my destiny for this life-cycle!

I've entered the infinite realm of the night
On the opposite side of the daylight world
Where no light has ever beared reality
I am waiting for the final eclipse of the sun!

Obscurity
Heaven fades to black
Nightfall
My shadow awakes to life
The darkness is mine eternally!

The occult mysteries of the endless cosmic night
Will be forever, forever hidden from your unworthy eyes!!!
