  • I leave today

    Already said my goodbyes

    Heartfelt embraces, teary eyes

    Time to conclude this chapter

    Time to drive... 

    Driving faster in my car

    The wait is not too long

    It’s further, beyond…from just afar

     

    So heavy, my soul's worn thin…

    A new lease on life, I’ve been bleedin’ 

    I’ll become a ghost, the horse with no name

    A horse with no name

    Time to find a place… 

    I’ll embrace what’s beyond my eyes 

    Movin’ west, high on life, I’ll enjoy this a little more

    Won’t let these feelings die

    Driving faster in my car

    The wait is not too long

    It’s further, beyond…from just afar

     

    So heavy, my soul's worn thin…

    A new lease on life, I’ve been bleedin’ 

    I’ll become a ghost, the horse with no name

  • Hello and go…

    Go as you are

    As you were

    Chase your dreams

    Just beyond the way...

    Go as you are

    As you were

    Chase your dreams

    Don’t let them slip away…

    I’ve got to go…

    Go as you are

    As you were

    Chase your dreams

    Don’t let them slip away…

    Hello and go…

  • I see… 

    I see the devil, I see the devil in disguise

    Magnetized me, hooked me in with her eyes

    My, my my… what a ravishing sight

    My, my my… she might eat me alive

    Under the spotlight, the full moon hangs, our hearts wander ambiently…

    What lies ahead this autumn night?

    United by sorrow, we ease right in, sailing like the whipping river tides

    Satin sheets, spirits and wine, a scarlet light

    I feel…

    Don’t need a bible, salvation, I’ll just look in your eyes

    Overloading… I’ll slide my horn inside

    Ride, ride, ride… until the night in us dies

    Mine, mine, mine… your tasty flesh and lovely soul is mine

    Under the spotlight, the wolf moon hangs, our hearts wander ambiently…

    What lies ahead this autumn night?

    United by sorrow, we ease right in, sailing like the whipping river tides

    Satin sheets, spirits and wine, a scarlet light

    A fire erupts, the warmth within, indulging ourselves with skin-on-skin

    Let our pheromones surge and flow

    Our hearts pulsing, we’ve hit the right beat,

    A goddess in my arms, she years for more and more

    How can I say no?

  • A good dream is hard to find…

    A real dream consumes your mind…

    Across this country, from coast to coast

    A new lease on life is what I needed the most…

    Hell yeah…

    Days passing by, days passing by, no opportunities arise

    Life’s passing by, life’s passing by and I’ve… gotta go

    Days passing by, days passing by, no opportunities arise

    And I’ve… I’ve gotta go and catch that drift

    Feelin’ free

    I’m feelin’ free and lovin’ the breeze

    Days passing by, days passing by, no opportunities arise

    Life’s passing by, life’s passing by and I’ve… gotta go

    Days passing by, days passing by, no opportunities arise

    And I’ve… I’ve gotta go and catch that drift

    Morphine dreams, morphine dreams, takin’ a trip, I want to see

    I’ve gotta let it all go… float my burdens into the sea

    Morphine dreams, morphine dreams

    It’s now or never, do or die, and I… gotta say it’s been a helluva ride

  • I’m damaged beyond repair

    Maybe one day, I’ll be whole again

    Lost… in… you…

    You guided me through with your loving eyes

    Those times we shared… continue to be

    They wither in my heart, my cadaver lays here cold and still…

    I’ll wait for the sun to shine

    The breath of death continues to soothe

    This numbing, is this peace come to fruition

    Lost… in… you…

    You guided me through with your loving eyes

    And the memories of our past together

    Will continue to last, well beyond our time 

    Grief perseveres as love is unexpressed 

    It’s a pain ever-growing throughout my time here on earth

    It’ll all end one day, hopefully sometime soon

    The kindness you once gave, saved me, even if only for a moment or two

    I’ll wither away in rays of light

  • I want your (sext) Into your home, you guide me inside

    I want your (lust) Your warmth intoxicating, so invi-ting

    I want your (sex) We slip-and-slide, I’ll bring you to the light

    I want your (love) Can’t catch your breath? shaking at the knees

    I want your (sext) You sweat, shake and moan 

    I want your (lust) You call me daddy when we’re alone

    I want your (sex) Going beyond, please thee ’til you’ve had your fill

    I want your (love) Should we crescendo these movements together?

      

    come on…

    cum…for me…

    I want your (sext) Let’s go round and round

    I want your (lust) Let’s not stop ’til we hit the ground

    I want your (sex) If this is all we have, just one night 

    I want your (love) I want to give you endless sinful delight

    I want your (sext) Let’s go round and round

    I want your (lust) Let’s not stop ’til we hit the ground

    I want your (sex) If this is all we have, just one night 

    I want your (love) I want to give you endless sinful delight

    I want you

  • Once said… that her love for me, would never die…

    I believed, intrinsically and went along for the ride…

    Devotion comes as a cost

    You’ll learn the searing bites of the frost

    No refund, there’s the door…

    When love turns to stone

    The heart inside will fight until

    In time, I’ve come to terms 

    It's always been my destiny

    Life moved on and I found a new flame

    Not for someone else

    A new life, for me

    Don’t worry, I’ve got more to tell

    At the core of darkness, a story of hell

    Vindication in many ways, appears in many ways…

     

    In the shadows of love and light

    The tortured, the poor, they weep, they scream

    ...and you can feel

    It's always been our destiny

    Gonna live my life, gonna take my time…

    Sometimes all it takes… is just one drive

    Now I live my life for me (my soul is stained)

    Now I live my life for me (imprison the pain) 

    Now I live my life for me (sunlight embracing)

    Now I live my life for me (sunsets enchanting)

    Now I live my life for me (never more alive)

    Now I live my life for me (glad I changed my mind)

    Now I live my life for me (never more alive)

    Now I live my life for me (grateful I survived)

    Now I live my life for me… 

  • Ambience in the stars

    Oh, how they shine bright

    Life Illuminated

    Reflections, in your eyes

    Animate the dead of night

    Elegance, skies glisten above

    Oh, how the galaxies inspire

    Thoughts cultivated

    From deep inside, they're now alive

    Dawning onto our world

    Cherish our mourning earth

    Oh, how she's cradled us all

    Surviving, there's so much more to be

    Existence

    I'll submit to it's infinite grace

    Lurking, the abyss of time

    I'll embrace her guiding hand

    Ascending, beyond our sorrows

    The universe sees, endlessly

    Let the love inside breathe

    Find your way

    Find your way

    Find yourself

    Find your peace

press

“This album is art in the purest sense, an honest and complete reflection of the artist’s soul. Excellent, excellent, excellent.” 9/10 Laura Barnes • EVER METAL (U.K.)

“The maturity of a musician who reinvents himself without losing his characteristic handwriting. The album oscillates between melancholic contemplation and optimistic departure - just like the facets of a long journey. JoeyDiabolic reveals himself as an artist brave enough to push his musical boundaries. This album is an ode to the unpredictable, daring to try new things while staying true to yourself.” 9/10 AM:PLIFIED (GERMANY)

“Well, this is quite a tone-shift for JoeyDiabolic and it sure will cause some debate amongst fans. Many will love it, some may loathe it, but one thing everyone will be able to agree on is that it encapsulates the creative force that is JoeyDiabolic. Expect the unexpected and appreciate an artist that is as imaginative as JoeyDiabolic is.” 8/10 Carl Fisher • GBHBL (Games, Brains and a Head-Banging Life - U.K.)

“The perfect soundtrack to put on for a long reflective drive.” Jon Barbas • METAL DIGEST (GERMANY)
