nathanæl

[ANAMNESIA.Track.02]

- The Ether Sickness -

þú ert auð - en ég er sæll
þú ert lífið - opnaðu augu þínar

as i was sleepless
a frightened child
the groaning footsteps
fainted outside
i entered her room
the wooden skies
i am the victim
of my eyes

the I is drowned
- ocularize my dreams
you fall down
- through ladders' and webs' sympathy
you're changing your role
- sweet robot touch my metal skin
you're trapped in your soul
- irised mechanical grin

strange and wide
another landscape for the war
sick and tired
another hero learns to fall
raid my eyes
and see the corpses fell from towers
break the walls
and let the windows watch each other

and as i watched her
stripped her eyes
a blinded voyeur
glassy lies
narcistic science
agnosticize
i adored her shattered eyes
...her dead eyes

the I is drowned
- ocularize my dreams
you fall down
- through ladders' and webs' sympathy
you're changing your role
- sweet robot touch my metal skin
you're trapped in your soul
- irised mechanical grin

strange and wide
another landscape for the war
sick and tired
another hero learns to fall
raid my eyes
and see the corpses fell from towers
break the walls
and let the windows watch each other

þú ert auð - en ég er sæll
þú ert lífið - opnaðu augu þínar

routine

[ANAMNESIA.Track.04]

- The Ether Sickness -

as i rolled your broken eyeballs out
keep the silence loud
you saw me

take revenge on signs you've never seen
under soil and green
in epitaphs

and the baptist shaves his brows divine
my nails scratch over coils
wired to my mind

the frequency my bones are aching
tangled to the membrane inside my brain
the audible restrained

the time has flustered echoes in my mind
reference to the blind
try to see

watch your head and get up off the ground
dig it in the mound
watch the sprout

and the doctor slightly bares your chest
the y-cut tracheostomizes
your crest

the frequency your bones are aching
oscillates inside my broken sight
all the coils unwind

fed with the murmurs
fed with the growl
you hide in the leafage with the owls
shut your eyes out

one with the carnage
one with the faint
you run through your routines of pain
another fallen saint

and so you dream
of broken birds and arrows
and so you dream
of arches and bridges arising from the sea

ocular shoreline

[ANAMNESIA.Track.05]

- The Ether Sickness -

the mind where i roam
through the barren fields far from the shoreline
spider lines substitute my eyes
ballistic heart of iron pounds the earth alight

and as the bullets gaze in front of your face
unaware of what is in your mind
raid another soldier in their disgrace
but his fate ponders to the far shoreline

the waves where i roam
through your withered gardens near the shoreline
i'm the cone of light
condemned to spy you from above the lightspine

as i caressed your face you shivered in that beam
condoling sparkles weep their lullabies
afraid of touching, war and broken self-esteem
i whispered hope to you my dear shoreline

epic cardiodrama

[ANAMNESIA.Track.06]

- The Ether Sickness -

cowering, cowering under my skin
i'm the insect, i'm the vermin, i'm your origin
the mortal morrow murmurs
of the wakeful sheep
the shades that crawl beside your
when you're asleep

you saw me, when i was in your reach
in the nocturne in the spotlight under your bed
you felt me when i headed away from you
all dreams tangled, a vision true to me?

your sinus rythm
a beat for my elegy
on your requiem
i am the reptile crawling through sarin fields
to rip your ECG
cardiotragedy

all your life
bleeds out of your veins
let it slide
i gaze at your surface

soothe me, soothe me
i'm awake here
the nightmares of your exitus
prey upon me
the circadian rythm
steps out of tune
i crawl under your surface
i cower in your room

you heal me but you're not in my reach
in the nocturne i act like a victim beside you
you felt me when i headed away from you
all truth tangled, a vision true to me!

your sinus rythm
a beat for my elegy
on your requiem
i am the reptile crawling through sarin fields
to rip your ECG
cardiotragedy

all your life
bleeds out of your veins
let it slide
i gaze at your surface

glen

[ANAMNESIA.Track.08]

- The Ether Sickness -

sitting on this wooden roof once more
peering through the limbs of anger
slipping through the dusty sunbeams
the child of glen never lingers

the peaks crush my voice
mountains ease
soothing cliffs
where i can breathe

longing for the mountains on my sides
strolling along the creek of perils
living rocks around my feet
bear my necklace of thor's anvil

and in the hollow deep
the echos (feedbacks) cry
that's where the sounds still lives
and melodies die

climbing up the starway
to the vanished mountaintop
floating words in thin air
they won't ever give me up

signs over the fern sea
fragile letters caught in winds
skeleton trees ivy-clad
decoying glen is shimmering

steinn

[ANAMNESIA.Track.09]

- The Ether Sickness -

innan steins
vaknar lítið sæði
burkninn brjótast út úr því

this wooden chains
make the stones turn
wrapped up in skin
of thistle, leaves and fern

i peer through limbs
as the networks collide
peel off the trees
seek for my fibrin hide

deep inside the rocks
hidden from your eyes
awakes the fern
in the heart of a child

innan hjartað minn
vaknar stór bylgja
sjórinn brjótast út úr mér

through the clouds of fern
rides a hazy ghost
defends the sprout
against the sacred host

i cut myself open
the eyes are haunting me
and from my heart
bursts the redeeming sea

deep inside the rocks
hidden from your eyes
awakes the sea
in the heart of a child

the second between two hours

[ANAMNESIA.Track.10]

- The Ether Sickness -

count the scars away
tonight we'll hunt the days

where do i belong
when clocks weep
seconds drive the deer
to the place
where the hours sleep

one heartbeat before the leak

amphotere

[ANAMNESIA.Track.11]

- The Astral Wound -

awake
old hours passed away
my unchained eyes stray
withered virgin in new dress
another view on the same mess

sediments evaporate
the platen sky in higher rate
i'm filtered through a semaphore
a sonic message sent by thor

and why can't i speak through it
high tide washes away the grit

awake
old seconds run through sand
where the sea meets the land
i linger at the water-line
and quote the words in my mind

but why can't i speak through it
high tide washes away the grit
a broken lense reflects the sky
the shards display all our sights

i've tried
to fix the angles right
with my eyes tied to the sides
when the physical states collide
and the planets race through tide

my wounded wrists lay in your lap
my eyes see landslides fill the gap
my hands shape trapezoid rocks
my arms catch melting clocks

awake
the days i knew are gone
gaseous oceans have moved on
through the solid fog falls rain
brains in acid lakes retain

cerebral mails in formaldehyde
a dead file for each sight
a broken screen mirrors the sky
each shard displays a lie

i've tried
to fix the angles right
with my eyes tied to the sides
when the physical states collide
and the planets race through tide

my wounded wrists lay in your lap
my eyes see landslides fill the gap
my hands shape trapezoid rocks
my arms catch melting clocks

i cross the seas escape the traps
i am the wind tousling your hair
i keep the stones i sprout the fern
i am the earth i'm your lair

stormur minn

[ANAMNESIA.Track.13]

- The Astral Wound -

peer through dust
the toolshed blistering
you're in secure
the storm's unravelling

see, it blows
see, it grows

watch it crack your alibis
wreck the roaring seas
i've left to die
touch yourself'
use your fists
and dive

child it flows
and still
you spread your fire and your wine
a kill
i am the victim
you're the crime

down in the heaven
you fuck your angels
up here in my hell
i still fight for a mind
divine

see, it glows

from under fern

[ANAMNESIA.Track.15]

- The Astral Wound -

down in my wound
creeks running time
soul's growing grass
veins are pouring crime

strolling through leaves
fall with the rain
aging with clouds
autumn my aim

i deny all that's real
mirror's telling me lies
and i won't trust my eyes
'cause there's nothing to see

down in my world
rivers run fine
soul's growing old
veins are pouring vine

i deny what's the truth
wrapped up in my cocoon
hiding deep in my wound
mirror's lieing my youth

under my roof
between fern and fen
find comfort here
calm down again

torso topographic

[ANAMNESIA.Track.16]

- The Astral Wound -

sailing westwards i leave the riverbanks
closing in for calm
i set the stars in flames and dim the world's lights
i wanna get lost in this storm

i trench the waves
i part the humble soldiers
dripping from their clouds
i mute the world
i lay my skin above the rotten landscapes

fickle philosophy keeps me in my rounds
everytime i pass the cliff
off the world outside
let me dive - let me drift

to the islands
around my navel-feed
my origin inside
the atmosphere of my fading
my wounded satellite

wake me again as your rockets fly
redeemed and recalled
taste my fear as my radar oscillates
in your heartbeat

dripping off my fingertips
i carress the rain
the only one seduced
i watched the stingrays float and the seagulls fly
as the sirens guide my boat

i feel the fog
i keep my hidden pearls forsaken in my soul
i amplify the seas
i hunt for conic lights
preventing me from drifting

...humble and strayed... ...scornful and pissed...
...parents and friends... ...the sacred and blissed...

break my ankles cut my wrists
i reach the bay between god's fists
the hurting god a human spleen
the grace is all that we
