Prayer
альбом "Chaos Engines", 2012
(К.Шоршин/Нелле)

ghost from the machine
venom of the soul
I've lost all my reasons
I'm losing self-control

Mechanical demons
Designed by God
My love's artificial
I’ve almost forgotten

Oh, will I go further
Suppressing my scream
And stone versus feather
When death meets the dream

I stay alive between two mirrors
I fight the scripture when I pray
When fire faces paper heroes
gleam of hope reveals your ways...

Another sign of lonely madness
Unpleasant feeling that incites
Entangled consciousness of sadness
That fades away the light of eyes

I cry for you, you're my obsession
Oh, Lord, your kiss is cherished curse
And yet I beg not for salvation,
My soul's in hands of thee, of course

I've heard a song of puppet angels
In my oblivion I’m lost
I find no answer, I’m a stranger
Your shelter’s gleaming in the dust.

The steps of [bad word] closer
The world could never be the same
dragon tear fell in prosper
Of your own name that was enchained

I dare not ask you for salvation
And – may you see – I will not ask
But in the passion of temptation
Please, help me throw away my mask...
