Holding the Picture Songtext
von Cloud Rat

Neptune′s mouth
The tentacle shows through the fabric now

"Beautiful humans", he tells me
"This is where to grow them"
Shows me a small game
We use spears to impale them

To impale them
To impale them

Tunnels and caverns
I live and inhabit
Consciousness
Consciousness

An intelligence that calls itself "Unity"
An underground nervous system
I become unmoved while I absorb sunlight
You enact total war on creativity


Tunnels and caverns
I live to inhabit
All sins ignored
To enact my cells
There are others around me, around me

"Listen to me girl!"
"Your origin is unknown"
"Your waste in a thousand burning seas"
"Filth and desperation corrode your crevasses"

"Seek nothing into the dream affairs"
"Your ancestors were a plague"
"A plague!"

Wide open like a mouth
Guided with nothing now
At the mountains of madness

My overlord has left me alone
And only I know what pain is
Fluttering down on broad cheeks
The planet's winds whip against me

Luminescent flashing
Mother burning underneath the ground
Or what I smell...
What is this?
What is this?


Crashing life field
A passage
Crashing life field
A passage

Am I the first visitor? I, I...

Neptune′s mouth
The tentacle shows through the fabric now
