The Aufhocker
don't walk under the bridge
I lie in wait in the ditch
The Aufhocker
sitting in your neck
you suffer from my attack
The Aufhocker - I take your breath - carry me on the path to death
as a wanderer in darkness you should know my thread
doubt every new attendance - try to walk ahead
demonical companions are starting to grow supernaturally
you'll have to bow
Aufhocker
sitting in your neck
you suffer from my attack
The Aufhocker
don't walk under the bridge
I lie in wait in the ditch
sucking the air from your chest
revenant, undead
a mounting corpse
suffocate, deflate
without remorse
execrate, violate
with blunt force
leeching life, weakening flesh
you are the source
in disguise, symbolize
insecurity
metaphorical
anxiety
you will not survive - just prolong the decay
disorders, sicknesses - will pave your way
dispositions are about - to cause breast angst
in the end you will be - an unknonwn’s prey
Aufhocker
sitting in your neck
you suffer from my attack
The Aufhocker
don't walk under the bridge
I lie in wait in the ditch
The Aufhocker - I take your breath - carry me on the path to death

Hanger in the Eye
02:16
|
|||
|
I am dressed in tatters
a shroud very worn
more holes than substance
your vouchers I scorn
It is time - once again shivers run down my spine
It is time - enter their realm of opulence
Can you hear my whine!?
I fear a hanger in the eye
eyeballs – pierced and sacrificed
I fear a hanger in the eye
eyes shredded from outside
I don't have any interest
in your gawking stare
not even glasses
can calm down my fear
It is time - once again the phobia has to be overcome
It must be done!
Iron and plastic
through the cavity
the visual nerves
impaled - I can't flee
blood is pounding
splattering out of me
I have a hanger in the eye
eyeballs – pierced, sacrificed
I have a hanger in the eye
eyes shredded from outside
broken fragments
are cutting the face
confirming, approving
the fear of this place
Why did I not just order!?!?!
Why did I have to cross this border!?!?!?!
I have a hanger in the eye
eyeballs – pierced, sacrificed
I have a hanger in the eye
eyes shredded from outside

A monstrous Vermin
03:32
|
|
||
|
Transformed - an insect of monstrous size
a disgusting vermin
found by himself at sunrise
diseased - a morbid surprise
abounding the laws of physics to find a slow demise
eat the rotten
a voice so whirring - no tongue - no one can understand
my words my mother passes out - I get banned
into my room under the couch - I'm climbing the walls
feeder of the family - expect their fall
a monstrous vermin
the beloved - terrorized
cast out from mankind
unsocialized, oversized
no more milk - only waste tastes
good to him - he's disgraced
despotic boss - assholery
dependency demands decency
horrified tenants turn their back
domoralized parents are racked
wondering – is this a dream?
never to have been esteemed
the process of thinking gets reduced
the burden grows that he induced
injured by an apple attack
he severly got smacked
a monstrous vermin
the beloved - terrorized
cast out from mankind
unsocialized, oversized
the cause of death is not sure - the body got disposed
the cleaning lady brought it out - the end of the curse
his room made empty - only one picture saved
the good intentions have now become depraved
crawling pleasure
victim to the oppressor
he's gone - a new beginning for the weak
flourishing beauty - of the last one to practice deceit
transformed, an insect of monstrous size
a disgusting vermin, left to rot at sunrise

Flounderized

Get out of my trunks!!!
swimming in the sea
in my trunks it's getting fishy
I did not expect
the metamorphic act
eyes start to move
to the right side of my head
a 180 degree view
is all that is left
I am flounderized
the flounderized arise
I am flounderized
dehumanized
eyes are moving aside
I feel the urge
to dig myself in
nothing is left here for me
with my spotted skin
in the mud
I hide at the day
spotting and sleeping
eyelids have gone astray
I hunt at night
woodlices excite
my curiosity
and animosity
I can touch my eyes with my tongue
my fingers become flippers
weak is my lung
get out of my trunks
as I get rid of my despair
I abjure the fresh air
I am flounderized
the flounderized arise
I am flounderized
dehumanized
eyes move aside
at the mouth
of the river
I make swimmers shiver
No one believes
that I do exist
although a few insist
insanity
is getting imputed
lonely I hide
existence disputed
I am flounderized
the flounderized arise
I am flounderized
dehumanized
eyes are moving aside
swimming in the sea
I am the only
disgusting hybrid
of fish and man
I resign myself
to this lonely fate
superior in the water
fresh air suffocates me

Cruel old Maiden
03:46
|
|
||
|
You shall receive your punishment!!!
You're not good enough
your curly hair just makes her suffer
this trouser cuff
lets her turn away from you
suitors come and go
bitterness grows as she gets old
men - stay away from her
she's just better left alone
better left alone
her hatred grows - refusal unfolds
our maiden doesn't deign
her two servants what she denies
without any men
on castle Esel they reside
down the hill they go
in the afterglow
Cruel old maiden
let them turn to stone
no safe haven
curse the servants and bemoan
Cruel old maiden
you better choose to obey
bear the burden
don't you dare to betray
from the valley they hear songs
enchanting and wonderful
they stop to listen for a while
forgetting their duties with a smile
it was a bad idea
to stay and exult here
they've crossed the path of fishermen
to sing and talk to them
wondering what they do
the maiden suddenly occurs
beastly evil thoughts arise
she curses them and cries out their demise
Cruel old maiden
let them turn to stone
no safe haven
curse the servants and bemoan
Cruel old maiden
you better obey
bear the burden
don't you dare to betray
a karmic revenge
a horrible stench
after the attack from the sky - a burning payback
let her burn
for forgiveness she yearns
let her burn
no second chance, now it's her turn
Cruel old maiden
let them turn to stone
no safe haven
curse the servants and bemoan
Cruel old maiden
you better obey
bear the burden
don't you dare to betray

Vomitorium
04:29
|
|
||
|
A new discovery shows
The misconceiving were right
If the old romans did it - why not us?!
A new room shall rise!
I need a vomitorium
A silent place to retch
I need a vomitorium
My stomach is stretched
An architectural expression
Of pure decadence
A stupid behavior
Without any sense
Gluttony and waste
In reckless haste
More and more to stuff
It’s getting rough
Never to digest
Never to rest
Let it in let it out
Repeat until you’re knocked out
I need a vomitorium
A silent place to retch
I need a vomitorium
My stomach is stretched
As I vomit blood
The doubting starts
Is this really healthy?!?
Or will it drag me beneath…
Deep beneath the soil
The doctor shakes his head in disbelief
Is this what humanity has achieved?!?
Self destruction by surplus
He turns away in disgust
I need a vomitorium
A silent place to retch
I need a vomitorium
My stomach is stretched
During recovery
I’m complaining endlessly
No more feathers for the pallet
Useless is the mallat
Gluttony and waste
In reckless haste
Let it in let it out
Repeat until you’re knocked out
And as I go to bed
Sated and fat
My teeth are getting rotten and dead
The doctor shakes his head in disbelief
This is what we have achieved!?!?!?!!!?

Who doesn't know about Rogga and his phenomenal output of swedeath? It has to be acknowledged that he doesn't put out any bad songs and is capable to hold up the tension. Not only that, je eben manages to increase the intensity of his works.
