BROTHER T - THE SEA, MAY 2016
Three women, true lovers, two drown in the cold deep sea
Their bodies entwined in lights of opalescent greens
Their bodies entwined in lights of opalescent greens
Dark hair disappears under chalk white whirls and foam
Death comes synchrone in a deep heartful unity
One woman, eyes closed delves deep into the sound of the sea
Her legs getting wet from an unknown exctacy
Her legs getting wet from an unknown exctacy
Three women, true lovers, two punish and one takes the pain
Her gratitude reflected in a haunting soliloquy ...ya
You died for me, graces, punished a widow I´ll be
It hurts beyond all bliss that was ever inflicted by thee
I abide the storm from beyond the sea
And clad myself with my deepest needs
Our love becomes ultimate in its effect
Nothing hurts me more than drowning all pain
in the sea

BROTHER T - THE FAMILY, March 2016
There is a darkness in my soul
where black beetles crawl
under my skin, through my skull
and out of my mouth
There is a darkness in my soul
where black blood flows
through my vessels, into my heart
and out of my ears
There is a darkness in my soul
where black light shines
inside my body, inside my thoughts
and out of my eyes
There is that feeling
when you know it`s time
and you give the sign
motherfuckers, let us gather
in black unity
In black unity.
In black unity.
In darkness we are all the same
we are family - then, now, forever

BROTHER T - THE CHURCH, March 2016
I was born in a village church
between some folks on their knees
the footrest was rough and covered in dirt
from the shit of the sheep
I opened my eyes and saw in my first light
a naked man on the wall
My eyes met thine and so my heart knew pain
That moment christened my life ... the same
Ahh...
From birth to death – as long as it takes –
I filled the void in between
Adopted the pain, let him see that I did
let him know that I loved...his pain too
Ahh...

BROTHER T - THE CROSSROADS, March 2016
A year ends in winter
A lifetime ends in death
My days end in darkness
When the ghosts crawl out of their nests
All fires end in ashes,
The living as food for the worms
I don`t know where my journy ends
And I don`t know when... I`m just passing through
I hear of the last chapter
It feels just like the first
There is love and then revenge
And a different view on happy ends
I see men digging graves
And quiet more getting in
I have a thing for coffins
And all of their sins... but I`m just passing through
What is it you are looking for?
There is a light but it never turns white
Say goodbye to father
And tell your mother lies
A curse will lead to no good
But at least I want you to try... I`m just passing through
A year ends in winter
A lifetime ends in death
All days end in darkness
When the ghosts crawl out of their nests
You want to have my name
You want someone to blame
But all deals loose their bloody ink
Where the crossroads end... I was just passing through

The Idol

BROTHER T - THE IDOL, March 2016
I broke my idol, cracked its spine
and threw the body behind the dustbins of its shrine
let the dogs do the rest who have been starving (for) forty days
emptied some good whiskey and saw clearer in any way
I caught a cuckoo that had been singing its tune
and taught it one of my songs full of glamour and of gloom
and put it in a nest between some other birds eggs
let the cucko do the rest, anything goes.
I met Charles Manson at a dinner with Godot
They talked of ways to sacrifice the Pope
I served them eggs and what the dogs had left for them
In this fucked up culture anything goes.

BROTHER T - THE VILLAGE, March 2016
There is a village and I know its name
There is my street but today it looks so strange
I could still live here and later die
but the village chose to wipe me (out) of its mind
and remember nothing at all
Folks changed their names and their lovers too
children, cats, everything to start anew
They moved the church and unearthed all graves
and cut all features from any face
and remember nothing at all
I see a sign where my house had been
“Here lies no one that we have ever seen“
Grey and ashy from when they burned my boys
to mock my love and keep me off their dreams,
keep them safe from my hands
My feet get wet from some kind of leak
there is water on the street`s concrete
I care to look and find there reason why
all the coffins have been piled in the creek
keep them safe from my hands
I cannot help smiling away the gloom
their love was colder than mine I presume
I know my ghost still haunts their dreams
Gives them pleasures they would never esteem
for this kind of love they have never seen
I wave goodbye to the souls in the sky
everyone I loved was dead anyway
I feel their eyes staring at my back
gnawing off their hearts in regret
for this kind of love they have never seen
