ZAKAZANY - FORBIDDEN
hug your skin against the rough surface of the stone
pushing, still pushing upwards
by pushing you scrape off the skin
there is no escape
there is only a way down
there is no hope
now only the scream of dreams and nightmares
urging, still urging this void
by urging on, you purify your soul
dreams won't stay for us
you will remain chained to the stone
you won't change anything, you mean nothing
hold back the stone
when you roll down
tear off your nails
when you dig into his neck
will grow back later, will grow back strong
blood, like water, already mixed with the clay
hug your blood, your memories
nothing to forget
you'll still be erased
urged on, commanded, forbidden
lick the glass, you have nothing else left
lick the glass, excite your whole body
touch the cold glass,
touch your years
year after year you are gone
you are already fading under the weight
you are already fading away crushed by this dimension
this nightmare, this constant lack
scream in pain, hit the glass
take the pieces out of your hand
pain is cement, pain is cement instead of death
you are still being erased
you will be constantly urged
you will be ordered
FORBIDDEN
