Art Is a Competition

[artisacompetition]

TO INHALE THE BREEZE OF GORE AND HEAR THE CALL.

[artisacompetition]

Black days of winter all were through

The blossoms came and they brought you

Clouds left the sky and I knew the reason why

They made way for you and the blossom

[artisacompetition]

A CORPSE IS FOUND WITH ALL ITS BONES BROKEN

CENTURIES AGO THE BEAST RIPPED HIS HEART OUT.

[artisacompetition]

HERE COMES THE SLOG.

IT NEVER STOPS.

[artisacompetition]

DRIFTING BEHIND YOUR GAZE TO FIND A CASTRATED WORLD.

[artisacompetition]

URGED THE BEAST TO GLORY

BUT THE SERVANT NEVER HEARD.

[artisacompetition]

IT LIES WITHIN EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US.

[artisacompetition]

LAY SMILING AT THE GLITTERING DEATH.

[artisacompetition]

A TOMB NOW SUFFICES HIM FOR WHOM THE WORLD WAS NOT SUFFICIENT.

[artisacompetition]

EIN GOLEM UNSERER SELBT NUR FREITD IM SINN.

One of the most beautiful, haunting music videos I've ever seen. The shot around 2:20 on the hillside made me tear up on sight for reasons I don't quite grasp -- take it up with my therapist. And the whole opening sequence of her burning a series of what appear to be very sentimental items. One of those times where I am certain that there is a bunch of stuff that goes way over my head, but I also don't need to understand it to know how it makes me feel.

[artisacompetition]

JUST GIVE ME ONE MORE THING TO FORGET ABOUT.

[artisacompetition]

SO PLEASE REMIND ME

THAT ALL I NEED IS SLEEP.

[artisacompetition]

I SEE HORRIBLE MEN

LIKE GHOULS

AND THE FIRE MELTING.

[artisacompetition]

DON'T THINK YOU'LL EVER UNDERSTAND ME

I DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND ME

DON'T HAVE THE POWER TO ANOINT YOU

AND I DON'T WANT TO DISAPPOINT THE FOOLS NO MORE.

[artisacompetition]

AMONG THE THORNS I WILL BUILD MY CATHEDRAL.

[artisacompetition]

ALL OR NOTHING AS BEFORE.
