- Lyrics on 'Black Angel' written by Per Holmström & Mathias Fogelström.
- 01. Belief
- 02. Black Angel
- 03. Bloodlines
- 04. Close your eyes
- I watch, every second now as you sink beneath the waves
- Like a serpent, I'm crawling on your skin
- Fading, slowly drifting down, you are showing everything
- And like a serpent, I'm crawling on your skin
- Chorus
- Shadows haunt the deaf and blind
- You are one of them
- You choose not to believe
- Blinded by your own hate
- These words are not enough
- It takes more to understand
- Why you choose not to believe
- When it's right before your eyes
- While your words pave the way, for a strained disbelief
- I witness past achievements, but they echo far away
- You hide and conceal, but you are showing everything
- And like a serpent, I'm slipping down inside
- Chorus
- Guide me to your shore, leave the past behind
- I will follow you to death, if you try to understand
- So open up your eyes, see what you have done
- Maybe then you'll understand, what I have witnessed all along
- I see the sadness in your eyes
- It's aching in your bones
- Observe the world from the shadows
- No light from the sky
- Into your world we wander
- Sorrow in your twisted heart
- Chorus
- You are the worlds black angel
- You take the pain and sorrow from us
- Into your black heart
- Release us from this misery
- Before the darkness comes
- With your voice you take us
- We have no choise but to follow you
- Chorus
- We know what you are
- We feel what you are
- We know what you are
- And we fear you
- Feelings, transgression
- Discrete, absolution
- An empire, born to rule
- A child, inherits all
- His blood, changes all
- His blood, will be their fall
- Chorus
- Bloodlines, the empire is burning
- Bloodlines, it will never go away
- Feathered lives, will change it all
- The empire, must fall
- Chorus
- Fire
- Burn
- Flesh
- Ashes and dust
- Restrictions in this world prevent me
- From going all the way
- I talk to you but do you listen
- I'm not sure it's supposed to be this way
- Chorus
- For years and years and years
- I have tried to solve this puzzle
- Without luck I now give up
- It was not meant for me
- This is something I don't want
- I did not choose this freely
- It is not meant for you
- It is not meant for me
- This world we live in
- Can not sustain us both
- Time to go
- And time to cry
- Time to wipe away all tears
- Chorus
- And as we watch
- The last sunset
- We close our eyes
- And dream away
- Chorus
On many occasions Mind:State received eloquent comparisons with prestigious bands like VNV NATION, NAMNAMBULU and especially ASSEMBLAGE 23. And it’s true that fans of soulful melodic electronics with a sharp edge will not resist to the shimmering darkness of Per Holmström’s songs.
The DJ EP was produced by Len Lemeire (UNTER NULL, DUNKELWERK, ANNE CLARK, IMPLANT, etc.).
