Demons 03:41
DEMONS (Music & Lyrics by Daniel Reiß) in a small church a boy stared at the organ strange forces of black seemed to draw him the old priest saw the boy standing there he felt his attraction and told him: “music is a powerful tool it can create and destroy or open pathways unknown do you wanna learn how to play?“ so he started to play got carried away drawn to endeavor the path he would follow forever as the priest died the boy took custody he found the dungeon underneath the old bell ancient scripts about an old melody that opens the gateways to hell he grew a young man himself musician from head to toe mighty composer that tries to find out how the melody goes he started to play got carried away drawn to endeavor the path he would follow forever he grew old with his obsession he went to Rome to a certain ancient crypt he found scores written on a piece of human flesh but then the walls of the crypt collapsed (solo: Gumo) he decided not to die there was a tune in his head he built a tentative carillon of the bones of the dead and he started to play got carried away drawn to endeavor the path he would follow forever forever! http://gumomaniacs.de

Stonehenge 03:44
STONEHENGE (Music by Hubi Hofmann | Lyrics by Daniel Reiß) stonehenge, what are you? what is the purpose? the light of moon keeps reflecting on your surface a place to get things done? or something more symbolic? a holy grail of human knowledge? I imagine candles being set up in a raster ancient druids asking questions to their master he might have had an answer to which way their night might go, he'd say: the moon will be watching that is all I know (solo: Fuck) stonehenge, what are you? I came to see myself I didn't get the answers from the books upon my shelf I will watch those blocks of stone waiting for the light contest inspired by the night the energy is there, I can hear you talking I don't understand your tongue as fantasy starts walking I don't have an answer to which way this night might go the moon will be watching that is all I know (solo: Gumo) (solo: Fuck) (solo: Hubi) when mankind will be fadin' like flowers without light will those blocks of stone become a futile sight? I don't have an answer to which way this place might go the moon will be watching that is all I know the moon will be watching that is all I know http://gumomaniacs.de

Cydonia 11:27
CYDONIA (Music by Daniel Reiß & Hubi Hofmann | Lyrics by Daniel Reiß) red desert canyon - dark giants of stone the mission is clear - destination is known no more golden horizons - we're a race that is lost but our past is a diamond - “preserve at all costs!“ a new existence shall begin cornucopia for our children, for the king for cydonia staring daggers at screens - it all seems so odd sweat on the forehead like teardrops of thoughts tired and broken but somehow alive we stare at the passage to the abyss of life a new existence shall begin cornucopia for our children, for the king for cydonia sleep is draggin' us away from here fading hope - the storm won't clear empty eyes - the apathy of our endeavor clouds are moving - it's now or never! back in panic, turning the wheel accelerate! the roaring of steel the turbojet engine is screaming in shock no hyperspace warp! the lever is blocked! “go grab the hammer and smash it apart! the death clock is ticking, no time to be smart!“ driven by instinct - sudden will to surive hammering smash! into the unknown we dive (twin lead: Fuck + Gumo) surrounded by thunder and the screams of command we're dancing with death in the land of the damned into the passage - attacked by the storm the space craft yells as the left wing is torn a reflex decision - turn it head over heels a bang of explosion - corroded by heat I hear myself growling in pain a storm of red warning lights and signs of decay (twin lead: Fuck + Gumo) we are twisting, we are turning flight control, it's lost! storm is draggin' us towards the soil smoke and fire - we're caught in a coil diaphone terror - emergency gate this craft is a grave and heaven won't wait I hear myself screaming “we abandon the ship! prepare for the crash! come on, get a grip!“ pressure is pushing us back to our seats I hear someone pray - a calm voice in the heat final thoughts of a man crawling under my skin like the tears of a child and the voice of my king (twin lead: Fuck + Gumo) we were supposed to give hope to our race to my king and my daughter - I remember her face the gate is now open - pure noise and strong winds I see a landscape in red, I push the gas pedal in the only way out of this casket of steel is the motor car I put my hands on the wheel I feel my face pulling a sarcastic smile as we crush through the gate - we are ready to die (twin lead: Fuck + Gumo) we are twisting, we are turning we are back on solid ground the explosion of the craft still roaring behind our senses announce that we are still alive only three of us left and a race that is lost going down to the abyss - “prevail at all costs!“ a new existence shall begin cornucopia for our children, for the king for cydonia we are waiting - something's watching the download runs - what is this place? Captain: “how long?“ Engineer: “download in progress... sequence 3, just like we assumed... wow, this is HUGE!“ Captain: “yeah, very fascinating... speed it up man!“ Engineer: “hey, what's wrong with you?“ Captain: “there is something... over there on that rock...“ Engineer: “yeah, or inside your head...“ Captain: “listen man! just speed it up okay?!?“ ancient ruins - dark atmosphere a breathing silence - there is something here our driver's corpse inside the motor car a bloody message: “you won't get far!“ we're about to lose it all cornucopia as I whisper my last call to cydonia http://gumomaniacs.de
