Dare to believe

If you love me, cross your heart and hope that I don't die before the best day of my life

The gambit flow of shifting thought
Shall ride a kiss upon my cross
And with each moment of dispair
Lay to heart a lovely tear
Within each bulb the salty sea
Swims an ocean silently
Swims the forest of my dreams
Swims the essence of my being

I don't understand
why do you try
to make hatred and intolerance seem justified
I don't understand your prejudice and lies
tear down your ignorance open your eyes

waking up from a dream into another day
never taking to heart all of the words they say
it so hard to believe if you never see
that the truth is split on the in-between
waking up from your dream into another day
never taking to heart all of the words they say
it so hard to believe because the truth is this:
what hatred breeds you must resist

Devon lies beyond this portal
Take the word of one immortal
Give your soul to me
For eternity
Release your life to begin another time with her.
End your greif with me
There's another way
Release your life
Take your place inside the fire with her.

Ich weil in dieser welt
da es euch so gefallt
eine machinerie
gedopt mit sex chemie

I got a loaded gun a weapon of beta sex sex;
Total recall but i feel in such a daze.
Distorted i'm starting to realize
Can't stop the flow of the upcoming file.
Hey you, wanna enjoy my artificial love?
Can't stop the pills, they don't thrill me enough.

Burn to feel
Burn the last thought
Come test it on every dance floor.

Another Pleasurure;
Just a pleasure of love.
Another pleasure;
Isn't pleasure enough
another pleasure
Just a pleasure of love.
Ten Thousand Watts is never enough.

What is left for us to know as the earth returns to snow?

Reconcile not with the fear of the snake
But enbrace it as your own
Inject its venom into your veins
And replant the seed that give growth
Still shrowded in mystery until you arise above perception
A veil of ignorance is in motion continuing throughout generations...

The snake is notoriously tempting
But the snake is fair.
What is worse than not knowing?
To live or disapear?

Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.
-Lucius Annaeus Seneca

As above, so below; as below, so above
-The Kybalion

The lips of wisdom are close, except to the ears of the Understanding.
-The Kybalion

Those things that Nature denied to human sight, She revealed to the eyes of the soul.
-Ovid


Everyone has a purpose
Hidden within our lives;
Something we were meant to do
Or feel before we die.


Before I fade into a dream
I will leave these kisses 3
One for love that dances in the fairy light,
One for the beautiful child enthroned,
And one for the angel whose eyes are my vision,
Whose wings though tattered shall carry me home.
I only ask you remember me
In a waking though, returned from sleep...
Before I fade into a dream
I will leave these...
Kisses 3


And if it was my choice to make
Elissa... I would stay with you
But tomorrow isn't mine to give
And there's something I must do
And if it was my life to live
Elissa... I would never leave
I made a promise long ago
And now you must believe
That no matter where I travel
I can only love you more
Whatever course life takes
I can only love you more


The human animal is a beautiful and terrible creature, capable of limitless compassion and unfathomable cruelty. If you wish to find that which becomes the dividing line between mankind and other biological classifications, it rests not in brain size, dominance, or even emotional capability, but lies in the unique capacity for human beings to reflect on their actions and show regret, what is most certainly the ability to empathize, that gives them their position. All animals understand love and affection, but only man shows the propensity to place himself into the shoes of another lifeform. Losing this capability, among individuals of this species, reduces them below their much heralded position, and readies the climate for the likely fall of man, the fall from grace.


I believe in what I fight for
And I have paid for it with pain
I am here because my contributions
May help turn this fate away
And all who stood by and did nothing
Who are they to criticize
The sacrifices of others?
Our blood has bought their lives


The pages of our history
Are written by the hand
With eyes and ears and prejudice
Too far removed to understand
And so the heroes of the ages
Are stripped of honesty and love
To make them seem less noble
And hide what we can become
If you find the courage within you
To face the path ahead
It matters not the outcome
If what you will gain instead
Is a heart deepened in the knowing
That experience carves the soul
And the very thing that empties you
Shall surely make you whole
Where the silent voices whisper
Find the course that is your own
And however great the obstacle
You will never be alone
For I have watched the path of angels
And I have heard the heavens roar
There is strife within the tempest
But calm in the eye of the storm...



I bring the winds to free you from your hessitation
I call the storms to remind you who you are
My faith endures for the sake of something less and more in them
And so I bring the winds to echo in your heart


Although we are men with mortal sins
Angels never cry.


Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life


When life is left behind this isolation
Cruelty and hatred have become
The cause of those whose eyes are full of wanting
The truth will still abandon none
So you must carry this light into the darkness
You shall be a star unto the night
You will find hope alive among the hopeless
That is your purpose to this life


But maybe you touch one life
And the world becomes a better place to be
Maybe you give their dreams another day
Another chance to be free


Here i am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here i am
Thy will be done
Sancta Sophia (here i am)
Peace is borne to your victory
Athena Sophia (here i am)
Thy will be done


You're telling me that Goddess tales
Must all be lies, for God is male.
Somewhere down the line
The role of Mother became odd.
And you judge me just as hard
When I love and you don't love me....
But Blessed Be...
Anyway.
You're telling me I cannot learn,
And don't ask why the witches burned.
And surely, Pan's the devil.
Those with horns are not of God.
The role of Mother became odd.
Why do you judge me?
You judge me just as hard!
While some of what you've been taught....
Oh, you wouldn't believe how much I believe in.
Blessed Be!

So bury fear, for fate draws near
And hide the signs of pain
With noble acts, the bravest souls
Endure the heart's remains
Discard regret, that in this debt
A better world is made
That children of a newer day might remember
And avoid our fate
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be your light
You've asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith is come
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winterborn



Winter is as close to a name as your getting to my real one. ;] It's my religious/magickal name and I bear it proudly along with the Wiccan faith.
