What's in a Kiss?

Never thought I'd feel again

Feel the darkness fade and see the morning sun arise
Never thought I'd feel alive again
Senses dull and blunt from all the lies

Now, when I hold your face so close to mine
I see a place where the sun will shine, with you it is divine
Looking down into those eyes
I know, I'll be lost and never found again

Kiss me once and I will surely melt and die
Kiss me twice and I will never leave your side
(If)
Dreams come true

Do I dare to trust this time?
Ooo, the bells of fortune, will I ever hear them chime?
Only those who have been burned before
Truly know the meaning of hell's flaming core

I was the brooding night and you were dawn
Saving me for I was forlorn, in your light I am reborn
Looking down into those eyes I know,
I'll be lost and never found again, oh

Kiss me once and I will surely melt and die
Kiss me twice and I will never leave your side
(If)
Dreams come true

And when the walls are breaking down on us
When all we see is misery, will you still believe in me?
Looking down into those eyes
I know, I'll be lost and never found again, oh

Kiss me once and I will surely melt and die
Kiss me twice and I will never leave your side
Until the sign of winter
(Dreams come true)
Always by your side
(Dream)

What do we really know about loss or creation?
If we have never bore a child, if we have never lost a lover (for real…).
Where does our power for the unfathomable come from?
Is it somewhere near the abyss we all nurture within or from the stars that besides us shed light to our path?
What do we really know about anything?
If we have not seen a child grow and fulfill its dreams, if we have not seen people live their lives fully and die.


How are we supposed to pave our way, through our fears and our avoidances, through the abyss us all bear deep in our souls?
Change is inevitable and with it the pain, of letting parts of you wither and die.
But such is the way of nature, such is evolution and we have no right to stand against it.
After all walking forward means always leaving something behind.


Don’t stare too long to the abyss because it might actually look at you back*.
If you have the power, keep on going without ever shedding a tear, without ever turning.
Otherwise hope that you will have the power to fall into the abyss and emerge reborn.

** Something my friend X... taught me once...

Τα χείλια μου ποθούν να αγγίξουν την ηδονική σου σάρκα,
Καθώς θα τα εναποθέτω επάνω στο υγρό από τον έρωτα κορμί σου,
Θα ρουφάω μαζί και το νέκταρ της ζωής.

Κάθε σταγόνα από τον ιδρώτα του κορμιού σου,
Θα ποτίζει τα λεπτά μου στην αιωνιότητα.
Και όσο οι σάρκες μας θα παράγουν τον δικό τους επουράνιο ηλεκτρισμό,
Εγώ θα ρουφαω τις πνοές σου για να πιω την ψυχή του κόσμου.

Μεθυσμένα χείλη, εκστατικά άκρα.
Παλλόμενα κορμιά για την παραγωγή μιας ενεργείας δίχως άλλο.
Στιγμιαίες εκρήξεις και ολοκληρωτικοί οργασμοί στην υπηρεσία της γέννεσης και της δημιουργίας.

Αντιμαχόμενοι άγγελοι σε μια πορεία προς την θεια Ένωση,
Φλεγόμενοι άκατοι του χτες, δημιουργούνται στο σήμερα, προβάλλονται στο αύριο.

Και ως ξεδιάντροπος παρατηρητής από εκεί μακριά, μας κοιτώ,
Κλείνω τα μάτια και ονειρεύομαι.

Μια φαντασία ανύπαρκτη, πιο αληθινή και από την ζωή.
