The Ancient Morning
(Music and structures by Callus & Spiteri; words by Callus & Borg)
Temples in my decaying self I start off to rebuild
Against the pathetic indifferences subject to a new stone
Of a future determined destiny I now lead the path
And the eyes of the scorn grace my deeds, I’m reborn.
With my crying portion not traveling as far
Acquiesce is attainable
Yet the way I opt for golden choices
Is rewarded back by the darkest voices.
I generate enmity,
Euphemism mon etique.
Yet again I saunter along these years of squander.
Ornate my pathos? Ha! – Your laughs are still there!
Another falling misdemeanor, though at my feet
I won’t share my ambrosia.
For if thou vow me be emissary, I’ll return as the next demuirge
Through a mirror in time a grace over my soul.
Obscure thoughts darken my mind,
Somehow I’ll overcome this false reality.
In the woods of my connivance
Whether a master, comes saviour Death.
Deserved would be the sob for my spirit to purge
Yet yours would be the evergreen to cycle at Fall’s dawn.
Me sure not the berserk on an unattainable horizon
As ‘pite my watery eyes sing, their tears sing high hopes.
Whether my trials breed acceptances, fate’s yet to reveal
As I let flow amidst ubiquity my ancient morning seal.
Let me not crave for the forbidden apple
For forsaken from my art I shall be,
Let me not long for unreachable grapes
For reaching a horizon may make me climb a wrong tree.
For beauty is lost…
For beauty is lost with the quest of touch,
Substance is lost with the quest for shape
Pleasure is a summit only for tired travelers
Mountains falling within the valleys of their tears.
Gold flows through my hands as dust
For dreams breed sadness
But they also do flourish accomplishments!
Obscure thoughts darken my mind –
Will I overcome this false reality?
Obscure thoughts darken my mind –
How shall I overcome this false reality?
Obscure thoughts darken my mind –
Will I overcome this false reality?
Obscure thoughts darken my mind –
I will overcome this false reality!
Like a dehydrated seed I may suppose to fade
But soon my valued self will spring off barren grounds
My branches will reach out for the sky making my shadow fall
Upon this circle of vice and its dreadful human lives!
Godless
Music & structures by Abela and Callus; arrangements by Abela; words by Callus)
Swimming through the old doubts of a sea named religion
As I feel my soul’s wreck is next to drown.
Celebrate my will, yet a feast weighs a crime –
It’s penance time, a battle in my soul arise.
Satan dressed in gold,
In the halls of twisted faith,
Antithesis
Of darkness in light.
Ubald walks over
Me… and the thoughts
That once have laid me a question:
“Which path am I to choose?”
A cross rises in both
The paths I may choose,
The burden I may carry
Forever joke on my faith.
Travelling up the hills of beseech
My dark shadow sets with the setting of the sun.
Panorama portrays a growing bethesda
In the self of a heathen whose name is
I…, I…, I am my own battle in my soul.
Mirth outside a soul of stone, I’m not to be called heathen,
Festive face to a devotion now lost, a bag of sin upon
My shoulder. Oh God, I feel I’m so far away!
Blasphemy your roots lie elsewhere
You’re just the dark side of a joke
A side to confuse my mind, to leave me godless.
No solid dates to celebrate
Profany,
Your calendar based on a moon which reflects a glowing sun.
Winds as ancient as our earth
Remembering Cain and Abel,
Recalling my memories as pictures in their smoke
When then I roamed godless.
Contrite as I beg to this heavy toll
Which yet falls upon me to punish my fickle pray
Dismay as I look beyond a
God
Far away
Away among the distant hills of beseech
Which shadows protect my pray to the eclipse.
Silhouette in darkness stabs me down his pit,
But then sure will pass my guardian to make me… rise.
The eclipse above laughs at my soul
Inconsistent search of a god unknown
The god which far away can’t hear my pray
So godless I remain with my beliefs to stay.
