Melancholie der Engel
Entrails in mud Skulls crushed by march Blood stains on leaves Home burnt to the ground Memories devoured by flames Death bringers in line Crows mourn in black Time claims its crown Rotten water in wells Destiny's grin resonates Leaving the last of us petrified

Hate and regret flow down a tear Along tears the green of my inner forest is reflected The silent mourning of the high branches heals me Life and death sung by the lush leaves The songs of the night tell of hunger The wood is my kingdom and my grave here I will find my throne of thorns And wait for the moss to dress me

Life and night are falling from me, Death and day are opening on me, Wherever my footsteps come and go, Life is a stony way of woe. Lord, have I long to go? Hallow hearts are ever near me, Soulless eyes have ceased to cheer me: Lord may I come to thee? Life and youth and summer weather To my heart no joy can gather. Lord, lift me from life’s stony way! Loved eyes long closed in death watch for me: Holy death is waiting for me – Lord, may I come to-day? My outward life feels sad and still Like lilies in a frozen rill; I am gazing upwards to the sun, Lord, Lord, remembering my lost one. O Lord, remember me! How s it in the unknown land? Do the dead wander hand in hand? God, give me trust in thee. Do we clasp dead hands and quiver With an endless joy for ever? Do tall white angels gaze and wend Along the banks where lilies bend? Lord, we know not how this may be: Good Lord we put our faith in thee – O God, remember me.

from worm to butterfly universe craves life in eternal embrace we are his silver dust lost in sentient darkness like fog that blurs in the morning fear of the abyss generates horror slow music embracing the fall I paint the walls of the soul black to confuse me with this night I collect her tears in crystal vials I will be the wild wave in the rainy season
