Rays Like Razors - Schammasch

Stare into my heart

With rays like razors

Cutting my eyes into half

And see these depths in devastating order

When transgression is reached

There is nothing I cannot see, nor hear, nor feel

And my body is closed to the foreign void of reason

As if I’d never be part of what is called «state-of-the-art»

Let us cease to exist when we hear your voice

Let us cease to exist when we see your light

Let us cease to exist when we feel your love

Let us close this body now

These fires beyond death will never rise again

I am gone, but still remaining here

For when I close myself, I am open too

To a reality turned upside down

Vision surrenders to the coldhearted truth of form

In solitude we conspire

In close-mouthed tongues we confess

Determined to hear the crackling and crumbling of hearts again

Pierce my heart with your rays
