Devil Doll The Girl Who Was Death Lyrics

The Girl Who Was Death Lyrics

Don't trust him
When he turns his back
He looks at you
Don't trust
him
When his eyes are closed:
He still looks at you

I fled, I
fled
Devouring the space
But the shapeless bulk
Was chasing me
-enraged-
Breathing my footsteps
Unsated with killing
me
Slowly
Nailing my incandescent thoughts
Along the border
Of
insanity
In a place where
A procession of fleshly numbers
Slides
incessantly
Into the ironic waters
Of the cosmos
Seeking to
remember
The sense
Of the impossible word:
Escape

"Who are
you looking for?
What are you looking at?"
A light? "a
star"
A boat? "an insect"
A plane? "a flying
fish"

"I'm looking at somebody
Who belongs to my
world"
"This is your world
I am your only world"

I
can't remember
When the fog
- unravelling
The real and
inexplicable
Contradictions
That crowd together
The human brain lobes
-
Imprisoned me
In the spider's web
Of the one who touches
The
minds of the mad
Curbing and churning
The confetti of their
thoughts

"Without corpses
There's no war
And without
war
There's no victory
My dear!"

I will not be
pushed
Filed, stamped
Inedxed
Briefed, debriefed
Or
numbered!

- Nightmare -

Welcome, my freind!
Here whole
generations
Of ghosts
Have raised
Their eyes and wings
Each
morning
To unbounded space
With the innocent joy
Of
crysalids
Greeting
Their final metamorphosis
And in the
evening
They're dead and dropping
Like lifeless flowers
Swayed by the
plaintive
Whistling of the wind
You must learn, we are all pawns
On
this hopeless chessboard;
Your move!

"Maybe you don't know my
face
But well you know my name
- My name is death"
Dressed in
white, smiling
The girl who was death
And loved me so much
Desiring to
bring me back to her
The only way out
To no purpose

"Why are
they trying
To kill me?"
"Because they don't know
You are
already
Dead!"

Face to face
Shut up
In the cage of
time
The man and I
Joined by fate
In the degree absolute
The
challange
Without return match
Where the price to one
is:
Living
And pain to the other is:
Not dying!

The mask! The
mask!
I must take off
His mask!
Now! Now!

But just as
victory
Seems finally
To favour me
Aand the unknown
Persecutor
appears
- Frame after frame -
In a slow instantaneous
Electric
shock
Here is my contorted face
To reveal, sneering
The final
dramatic
Deceit
When victim and hangman
Exchange roles
The
triumphant freedom
Of a thousand dreams
Evaporates
In the
reality
Of a new incubus
- Once again -
Made of
Smiles, masks,
lifeless confetti
Be seeing you!
Wandering through the catacombs of
life
Desperately I plunge into the whirl
Wandering through the catacombs
of life
Slowly I fall into the whirl of
- Hell -
