A Nostalgic vibe Sacrificial rite Death's poem on the flesh I'm bleeding alkaline Conjured my demise More than a thousand fuckin' times I'm a wizard of the obscene An adept of the neuro suppressive scene You're a bleeding sunshine But I'm a dead whore on your heart? You're a bleeding sunshine And so I'm a dead whore on your heart Little white lies Mixed with blood and wine Deep sensual aggression Esoteric annihilation A Caustic accord Cemented in dead air A Hypodermic emission Of pornographic volition You're a bleeding sunshine But I'm a dead whore on your heart? You're a bleeding sunshine And so I'm a dead whore on your heart These heavy pages Violently turned Psychotic archives Where the paragraphs burn Empty words Cascade into the void A derelict song Like a sharpened blade tearing at the soul You're a bleeding sunshine But I'm a dead whore on your heart? You're a bleeding sunshine And so I'm a dead whore on your heart But I am the wizard of pain An affliction of the insane Once a lover of rain Stranded in this world of disdain Dead stoned, aborted and cold To the void the old one returns Holographic future state The disintegration's advocate I am a wizard of pain 'Neath a suicide rain Nocturnal call on the vein A Carpathian dream on MDMA Death dream unleashed on the soul Deep dive into the unknown Wished the words would penetrate But emptiness is your only fate Come on and piss on my heart again... Now that distance reigns And the silence screams Wounds have all but closed Scars remain unseen While the bodies fall Soaking spirits rise Ancient lust dies hard Just cadavers in the low tide Accusations heaved Prostituted hearts Empty vessels numbed A void between the stars To bear the memoir To the very end of life I've been dragged so far By all the dead whores on my heart I've been dragged so far You're a bleeding sunshine But I'm a dead whore on your heart? You're a bleeding sunshine And so I'm a dead whore on your heart. You're a bleeding sunshine You're a perfect suicide Empty vessel, Empty mind Just cadavers in the lowest tide You're a bleeding sunshine You're a perfect suicide Empty vessel, Empty mind You're a perfect suicide

Depressive days have me wasting away Dazed and confused, adrift for weeks on end Harmonized in the strangest ways, on sleepless nights Analog dancer crooning lust in the air tonight Days fall carelessly Into a blue Atlantic deep A sleepy sun lowering As incense burns with every fantasy August's razor cuts deep, Revealing the nature of the scene Fascination within the veins, But washed away in the late summer rains Washed away in the late summer rains... We've been wasting the days away Weeks of innuendo and hesitant romance Don't you know I'm dead for you girl Lets fall together into this gothic trance Days fall carelessly Into a blue Atlantic deep A sleepy sun lowering As incense burns with every fantasy August's razor cuts deep, Revealing the nature of the scene Fascination within the veins, But washed away in the late summer rains Lost for lust Lost for weeks Neophyte lovers In the autumn breeze Dead for love Dead for this Tender casualties On a sapphire sea Lost for lust Lost for weeks Neophyte lovers In the autumn breeze Dead for love Dead for this Tender casualties On a sapphire sea Cupid's needle unleashed An angelic toxin within The sweetest symphony We're lovesick, high on mortal sin Lost for lust Lost for weeks Neophyte lovers In the autumn breeze Dead for love Dead for this Tender casualties On a sapphire sea Kindred spirits once led astray Lost through the ages of the earth Fallen into this great expanse The spheres of true devotion Neophytes in these affairs Like it was the first time again Gentle words in the autumn breeze An hazel dream in a winter's scene

A ghostly voice haunts the airwaves tonight The howling of the void Alone and distraught Lifeless and naked Crestfallen, mostly suicidal There's no comfort for us tonight Frozen in self-doubt Plastic despair An agent of emptiness Nothing and all in between Face the past head on Taste the pain, fuckin' abandonment Look within, find the root Take a bite of that forbidden fruit This is all a sick masquerade Everything is pretending Nothing is joyous Nothing is fun anymore This is all a mistake Perpetually stuck In a solipsistic state I've been dead since '98 But lift me again and shake me Bring me back to the days where we used to play New kids on the block The ultimate outcasts of the school yard Rock 'n' roll escapades Mesmerized young souls on a sea of names Fantasy books and video games Nothing will ever feel like that again All my kin are dead And I've killed them all All of them long gone (Mortui non te salutant) All charades lived up A masquerade of emptiness Facing the depths of the well (Face down against the water, lost to the world) Days come and days go Fakeness permeates all Totally numb All the fucking time Prince of nothing at all Scourge of the underworld Certified magician Of discouragement Mostly dead Not alive All these days Just trying to get by Locked away In summer ends The pain dilutes All plastic friends Monkey see monkey do Everything's entangled, a metaphor Seen somewhere way before In a dream, a wine tinted whore Plastic lives All dead inside So open wide To another lie Fakest smile Don't try to hide Just close your eyes And fuckin' die

about

It's that time of the year again, a cold chill blows and entwines with a taste of a nostalgic summer's end depression.

And here one thought that with age would come some clarity, but alas, it's getting more and more cryptic, with a deepened sense of complexity where old emotions seem to give way to a new reality which is indeed stranger than all the illusory scenarios conjured up in the last drunken and hazy decade.

Happiness blooms but not without a sense of impending doom and inescapable fear.

"Hex Romantica" has been brewing for a couple of months, not really what one would like to release but its better than no spiritual and artistic expression at all, that would be, i guess, a total annihilation of the self.
In a way it captures precisely the flawed and fragile nature of this particular reality, the chaos and uncertainty that permeates this sensitive status quo.

Acidic and raw, romantic as ever, inspired by all the goth cliches you can think of, sprinkled with a little bit of 80's horror soundscapes and dunked deep in a vat of pseudo philosophical ramblings, a trainwreck, but with heart.
