In Flames
ALBUMS / SONGS / LYRICS
Call me by my astral name Breeding fear through wordless tounge Heavenly thirst - unspeakable pain Emptied from all human motion Confront the faceless wrath Beckoning silent from a sphere behind space Through twisted ruins of uncompleted dreams Sights of towers reaching for the moon Clawing at the skies - they gonna pull it down Intensity - I feel the lava rushing through my veins Stars are reforming - to enter the fourth dimension Beyond all galaxies through timeless eaons of frost Unearthly hunger - angels descent We are entering dimensions behind space ... Beyond all galaxies through timeless eaons of frost
For there is a purpose and reason Beyond all human apprehension The shrieking silence in the blackness of space For there is a knowledge more complex Than life on this planet A knowledge in tune with the progress of stars Lunar strain All across the milky way Life suffers defeat Life that once was treasured What once was nothing Has blossomed into form Once it was I that was nothing But now they say I will die All across the galaxy Life suffers defeat Lunar strain From nothingless to reality As we see it From nothingless to life My dismal tears of anguish Bleed into one with the songs of my heaven Loneliness is pain Emptiness is power, loneliness is pain Serenity is might Yet we shall be honoured In the starforsaken night Astral strain All around my silent moon Life suffers defeat Astral strain For there is a purpose and reason Beyond all human apprehension The shrieking silence in the blackness of space
Wipped in the eye by the sand Malicious have light of day obscured The sun has burned my skin Open wounds are licked by sand To be punished by this vortex of scorn Wrists and ankles are chained upon this land Drawn through the desert to be their sacrifice So this is my golgatha, so this is my grave The theives, the liars, the hypocrit scum I'd slay them if I only could The endless sand, the blackest land A cyclone of spinecrushing anger Meant for me The overlords of the desert Not one was meant to be All human force now flee Rules of anatomy lost Rage into the extreme
Lights are dim My tearful windows Through wich no emotions pass Starvation of senses claws my soul Answer me Are these walls my only shelter From the bleeding atmosphere Take me from this land "I deliver thee from this agony A storm to cleanse thee" Mine is the right to be Maelstrom of the everlost This is the curse of ... All is dark All but one aspect of life To be shaceled In a shell, so misleading "These are the shells bestowed upon me" Pass into the darkened of the midnight Sounds, faceless lights Hands tear apart Disolve possess You alone can take my soul Take flight
Through seven songs of rejoice His name relives his solar voice Falling into the unknown Yet he shall feel no harm Lights shine upon his face Night exists no longer In unknown colours they confront him In soundless tounge they speak is name Moonred - reaching for life through eternity Starblack - the brooding silence is frightening me One elderly custom in timeless guise In ceremonies of old one, dove now flies Fly through time
Behold the heart of mine in flames A top the highest mountain Below the darkest depths In the valley of hate I wander My frost bitten heart is set ablaze, set ablaze Ravage my soul Plunder my mind Branded by thunder, fire and ice Trampled in fury by hordes of the light I am crushed by the hand of my sky My sky has forsaken me Rivers of crimson lead me now Trail of fire In a place of fire ethernal Left in flames Scattered in a world of thorns Torn from my earthly self Aggreived in tears and bitterness I fall beyond stars, beyond stars Ravage my soul Plunder my mind Branded by thunder, fire and ice Trampled in fury by hordes of the light My firey heart is stronger than ever It's stronger than ever before My heart in flames
"I see then nightshade grow" he spoke And southern hounds awoke at dawn Sought for the ever-liquid of our craving Caught by the all embracing nightly sun Admass - I laugh at your feeble lies - trash Hatred in my eyes and in my blood A scream across the fields - the rivers weep A vanquished lord upon an oaken throne Grief inside my flame - grasp at my existence The seal of dawn is broken - fury Wildfire A windswept thought Out in the perimeter where laughts are No longer heard, screams no longer seen And life is always lost Gaze into the skies for they are blind Blinded by the nightshade of our lust Grinded to dust The wolves are here The beast of the savage lands They drink my blood They feast upon my remains The tears in their eyes betry Wildfire
Reach for your razor Cut through the dawn See through your inner wrath Keys shan't open the doors Behold my heart has stopped My lungs are laid the final rest And still I see and do I feel Yes, but to earthly eyes I am gone To the land where legends never die Take me to the twilight land tonight Again and again and again in every night The darkness climbs through my walls Ever screaming silent to the corrupted ears Never to any man I will spear My speach it has no value Eyes that have seen the sights Bleed through the ages eternal I ask no more A life has just begun Never will I see the sun And do I miss it No, my eyes are black Emotions fled through eyelids closed Throne of thorns Clad in shadows
Tired of dull ages, I walk the same ground, Collecting the tragedies still Hollow ambitions in a hollow mind Carried my cross to the hill And how I lust for the dance and the fire Deep of the nectarine sunset to drink Spill me the wind and its fire To steal of the colors - I'm the moonshield Shattered hope became my guide And grief and pain my friends A brother pact in a blood-ink penned Declare my silent end Naked an dying under worlds of silent stone Reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone And how I lust for the dance and the fire deep of the nectarine sunset to drink spill me the wind and its fire to steal of the colors I'm the... I'm the... I'm the... I'm the moonshield
Stood there leaning to the city moon, casting silhouettes tall to grip her white rooms the black-clad voyeur in his black-clad masque in the serpentine sun of tragedy basked Stood there cursing at the soul-dead mass with their fabled illusions, the vain dreams that passed splinters of a life rushing by in the whirl alone, silent warrior in a fantasy world He cried for night / but night could not come so, swept in the shroud of misanthropia he went away and fed the empty galleries with the artifacts of the black rain sunken into the shadows with a dry, sardonic smile He made the footprints a part of his heart to rouse a sacred confrontation Stood there carving on the monument to lies digging of the Earth, making friends with the soil as the all-mother rises and bares her bleeding thighs he disappears into her cold, icy womb
Mankind - proud conqueror and king swings its flag of primal glory to the winds Titans of the power-myth that failed Neanderthal hunger for the flesh of war so frail So weak, so hollow-minded the primat flock responds the jester race submits For each day of war is a failure for man, enslaved in her mordial genes Illusions bleed from their fetid cores, bent to their rotten extremes We, the plague of Terra Firma, nature's grand and last mistake plant the poisoned seed of cancer, set the severed fruits awake Burning like frozen relics in god's archaic graveland Burn the visionaire Kill the ideaologies Mankind must die The doves and the angels return to their graves with flames on their pestilent wings while mushroom-clouds haunt their virginwhite skies to rape their utopian dreams Living the last days of evolution's end from the nest of humanity, the graveland vultures rend
I lie in your soothing arms, lord Hypnos your garmet alive with your song I lie in your soothing arms, lord Hypnos Steep the spiral to your far abode, in the wake of slumber, on visions I rode and fell like history through the chasm of ages into the charged, forbidden zones How I have searched through a million worlds and faces yet unaware, I have not found my own true face, traceless and profound So, find me in these grandiose halls where long ago summers eternally fall and tune the strings of truthful longing to the frozen music of gods Hypnagonia's lucid horizons play with the yearning I've quelled as I strike towrads the Pantheon and what therein is held
I bid you welcome to my world They call me existence You have just entered through the gate to your journey towards eternity This part I control In the beginning you'll fear nothing As I climb beside you Time will be your master in this laborious part of human subsistence This part I control Black clouds embraces your soul Slowly passing through repeating lacunas of anguish When time takes your life I wil transfer you into the bare grip of thinking tranquillity Voices frilling the emptiness of the dead floating Seamless across the surface into chilling stillness Nothing can help you now You'll never be along again You'll never die again You'll never be born again You'll forever be, stuck here in eternity
Rush faster on the one-way lane the answers so silent Rusty gods in their machine-minds armours grind our souls in the millstone of time the "deathbed harvest" is dead man's banquet of mould ridden bread and black, poisoned wine And we go..our steps so silent And we go..our blooded trace; The Jester Race Calling our to the gathered masses; their answers so silent And we go.. Embracing the tools of the neo-wolf age that speak of silence and silence alone Offering the tokens, the reliced idols to the heirs of the newly raped ground inferior even to the transparent winds lesser in motion and sound And we go.. There is no trace of me in their altered blueprints of life Gaia impaled on their horns and lances to fumes from her body give case as the throng of blind mind savour the scent, dream-dead from prosaic and hate Sunwind strokes the electroheart, ignition roars through the corridors, stream launching the binary vessels Vanities in extreme formations ride into tomorrow's rigid great face The Machinery outlives the futile scripts of our dying jester race
Towards the rich archaic heavens; towards the lack diorama you are the artist and the texture that plays with the mantle of the Earth When the bleakest of powders lie rooted to the starched stones and roots that feed the peaking trees embrace the sleeping shores Archaic pearls of sleep and death the voice of December losing its breath and the floweryard of whit and grey is haunted White as the down of flaking snow, the heroic emblems of life Green is the color of my death as the winter-guise I swoop towards teh ground Green is the landscape of my sorrowfilled passing We are In Flames, towards the dead archaic heavens We are the mantle and the texture the alters the mantle of the Earth
To slit the grinning wounds from childhood's seven moons the palette stained with the ejaculated passions (of forbidden, hedonistic colors...) Strike from omnipotence; all-seer, all-deemer and haunt my severed country with your dripping, secret games You pick the unripe lilies deflored and peeled the bleeding petals made known to me the grainy stains, the crimson lotus of the Black-Ash Inheritance, the semen feed of gods and masters The worms still in me, still a part of me, racing out from leaking rooms, swoop from broken lungs to block the transmission to put an end to the nomad years Father you are the dead god in me
I often dream of huge numb buildings jet-black sinister architecture being installed when nobody sees Their appearance so sudden that few would take notice And when I wake up I imagine being crushed by one imagining it's weight it's silence and the absence of excuses for a havoced life and the priviledge of a 22-kilometer tombstone Jotun A body of black that carried no reflection defying it's own room un-earthly eggs of decreation There would be colonies mushroom-scattered forever out of context rising spores from a dying world to pollute to chase away what's left Sun-white pulverised desert stone and serpentine lizard mouths Pales away the pyramids rewriting 4500 years of history raping the statue of liberty outplays the acropolis inverting the fjords invades the N.Y. skyline to dream it's own existence in one single final word Jotun Can we identify them as the flint buried in our reptile skulls or the time-bomb coded in our dna
Shame marries the guilt introduces itself to the concept of total loneliness Sensations repressed make friends with Suicidia and here the leeches begin to suck away the lust for life Thus Escape takes lead into a world unknown uncontrolled by all where border are erased and potential infinite Chosen cells glands and transmittors blast the body with joy Astral feet running up to dimension covered with gold stairs of glowing ectoplasma safir onyx and buzzing vibrations A dead man banquet food for the gods There's only 1 real world our earth is but a shadow Created from a child's heart a living jewel from now on abode for a soul in its setting Now sutting the bloodline re-tie the bleeding roots to a heavenly ship of glass and let it drift in passive arrogance in a one-word dialogue with the stars
Geology is digging through my brain a manta engulfing the world to throw it up once again to a guild of a lifted dagger Neo-wolf but older again than the Lupus itself linked its fur to the gyroscope of time a collection of failures A diabolical sequences of stabs written in cunning stone from the fossilised of thieves our lives dies I see the nursing all-mother spitting out a trail of termites in the mouth of her first-born hope breast ripe with smog-filled rebellion Apathy dressed in violence white insectoid legs curse her lips and mouth receptive only to pain
April night-tyme And we run like muscles through the stagnant nodes of man Blood-bridges lean towards the gaping synapses to disarms the stars within us Hornet Hive-dark Severed wings in vainless beating buzz out from inferno of fangs to disarms the stars within us We should have been so much more by now Too dead inside to even know the guilt Waning Ring-deep a halo of thorns Sips now down in the sheets of sharp silver to disarm the star within us
Cre-age-aeon new beginning held in infinite vacuum Biotronic test-world free of inscription devoid of the echoes of man noble savage cyborg In the cold ceremonial perfection more radiant than the sum of suns with each and every attribute of animal machine and man Dystopia ElectroHeart the grotesque and the linear took one final giant blow into the Ram of what is us Installing awaiting the restoration of unsequenced chaos We've only seen the outlines of the beggining and this core the slowly moving raptor will make the very notion of Hell seem celestial in comparison
Detonation Fireworks and alchemy Genes spliced and triggered into the future and her organic cave Seismorgasmic omnipotence scenes of magma in my eyes Eruption stones my system I owe this to the animal inside and the stiffness that blocks out the daylight Morphing into primal I'll cover every particle from there to Andromeda not forgetting a single location from the throat of Ibis to the co-ordinate of Matterhorn My shot is genesis and catharsis Penetratonaut in a cosmology of lust Suck this subterrenean creature out and show it proudly to the house of heaven With one slight wave of my hand star dissolves Dissolve my brain Block my lungs I'll die from fever tomorrow when locked in sych a perfected "now"
Raindrop hits the leaf changing it's position slightly on the street next to polls of monotonous waters He walks Slipping feet from steps at random He falls In the space of between his body and the ground comets cast off their names stellar neurones misfire Witnesses inhale the seed and spit out a million branches Buds abloom in all directions frin which events occur relations and virused meetings catch fire and explode In the margin of butterfly wings entire cycles of evolution outplayed and faded sparked away and leaned back into vacuum-filled nirvana Between the two of my eyes feverish fractal scar Dance like were they on drugs peyote labyrinth re-mapped exits A hasty blink and a million life-to-comes will never be the same as they never were In the kinetic energy of a moving fist lies a birth-machine for a parallel universe With the first movement in organic scap came a bouquet of alternative answers all different multiplied and re-divided Coded in the spinal cord of a trilobite written between the legs on the Meganeura suburban city maps and dormant dictator semen marked their way through time
Welcome here, the squirrel-wheel begins fasten the left hand belts Remember not to think too much and your trip will be numbingly pleasant Non-caring is the easiest way but to secure a passage to the 2nd plane you have to complete level one Their dead-smile lips turn on their TV while urban gravestones scrape the skies Rising over marionette cities and marionette skies This is episode 666 destination chaos Each and all an actor blind
The handshake Seals a contract From the contract There's no turning back The turning point Of a career In Korea being insincere The holiday Was fun packed The contract: Still intact The grabbing hands Grab all they can All for themselves After all It's a competitive world Everything counts in large amounts The graph On the wall Tells the story Of it all Picture it now See just how The lies and deceit gained a little more power Confidence taken in By a sun tan And a grin The grabbing hands Grab all they can All for themselves After all It's a competitive world Everything counts in large amounts The grabbing hands Grab all they can Everything counts in large amounts
I demand nothing, but I want it all What privilege do we have under the sun, That gives us the right to the throne? Species come and go, but the earth stands forever fast All river runs towards the sea, but the sea is never full To discover the loneliness and to be proud to show the wounds Will forever wander alone through the years But I won't let you near Begging for you to understand The fear that lives in my soul Which is an untouched spring Read, what is written on the silent mouth What is written in the soul For which is written in the shining silence We all have to read My body will be bent from the burdens When the shaking floor of life-force Reveal its chasm underneath If only one could be two steps ahead
Egoism dictates human relations A world where fashion outshines morality Here success is written in blood-red colours Designed by the thirst for power Gather the faithful and propose a toast To the epoch of indifference An all to ordinary story With aftertaste so bitter Forced to be someone I don't want to be I'm losing myself, sinking deeper down I'm caught in the world wound web A time represented by the void An excuse without content Stuck in the abyss of existence With a content void of excuse An all to ordinary story This is my story With an aftertaste so bitter Sinking deeper down I'm caught - I'm cage I'm gone
I perish and nobody will know As my mouth remains still My heart awaits me, filled with gravel As the pain grows with each touch Since I marked her out from my tower Reality focused through forbidden lenses She owns enough of preciousness A penalty given by the source But I still have no choice through The hinderens frighten A labyrinth closing at the edge of space But they never allow She's shut... for all beings but one I give, I scorn, I threat
In your world, the day is no threat In my world, there is an absence of light "Genetic superior cell" controlled By the fathomless and unbearable A radical new Form of plastic and rage Biologically optimized But with a strangling pulse In your world, you find me worthy In my world, I "parashoot" my life A virtual drugstore populated By the fathomless and unbearable Machine, meat and blood In an intimate relationship The new - superior - More effective than all the preceding When we can no longer Cry and reality is torn Then it's easy to forget That the responsibility lies on us all In your world, the night is no threat In my world, the darkness Transforms to a vision of hell Populated by fathomless and unbearable
Truth serves them embrace And defend her case Part flattery, part threats "For those who cling to this Dominion will partake in its fall" With his silence, he passes the Judgement over them "With your feverish signs of force You'll make them and yourself to Believe that he still retains his full power" As a platform for divine foundations, You want to make them suck Shallowness and beauty Was all that concerned her body But the soul, her divine guest Were thrust to the bottom Surrendered to the sect That has risen from its womb "For those who cling to this Dominion will partake in its fall"
I'll take you on a ride As a part-owner to my pain Our ideals they collide Coerced coexistence I fought the world today - postpone my birth again We stumble on and on - but bound to die alone Pine - I'm selling my soul today Pine - I need some sympathy This infiltrates my brain "In the sunshine the sun is mine" Pitiless wanderer Close your eyes and bow your head Grotesque thoughts in a line Threw my wings into the blazing sun Smile stretched on old trees Eternal Bringing jester masque Don't hurt a fly they all sing We're just ants in a great big play Commercialize-infect-annihilate-progress Visualize-inhale-pretend-betray
A sad song it was, Through renewal it brought And a month seems sometimes shorter Than a half nights longing Hidden and hard are the reasons for war Polar twist, invert and flea I can't dissolve this feeling of mine But patience will unlock the door And the maps of reasons re-written for me When the wait is over and the punishment is due Each day I crawl to the hall of the giants And I beg for mercy - And I beg for mercy in vain One night is a mare - two is worse How can I manage three?
Call me by my astral name Breeding fear through wordless tongue Heavenly thirst - unspeakable pain Emptied from all human motion Confront the faceless wrath Beckoning silent from a sphere behind space Through twisted ruins of uncompleted dreams Sights of towers reaching for the moon Clawing at the skies - they gonna pull it down Intensity - I feel the lava rushing through my veins Stars are reforming - to enter the fourth dimension Beyond all galaxies Through timeless aeons of frost Unearthly hunger - angels descent We are entering dimensions behind space
Should I defend you for who you are? The laws are changed and useless! On their way to a deserted town Where empty windows wave goodbye A helpless excuse, a falling reality I'm changed by the shock And the weight of the punch A helpless excuse, a falling reality Fragments of a futile being A puzzle to the noble ones Ignorant and pitiless they stride The world around me - Spartanic, minimalistic A helpless excuse, a falling reality The large scale plan that once where You've now drained from life A helpless excuse, a falling reality Who knows the proper reasons Why it all begins and ends? Ignorant and pitiless they stride "You are but a form", The clean, harsh silence passes "Genuine" visions by the noble Ones for the noble ones
The great word of blessedness And a feeling of ease A cup of the well of freedom And life we joyfully drink Inside, all was new, but outwards Nothing had changed An escapade, Then to the altar to Evaluate all parts Of the great mystery But all remains On the same spot, No signs of a new season In my hand is a new word, But the word is still Without a body A hidden life-stream that Swells in the deep Will soon give the word A 2nd face
Do you feel anything at all? Do you hear steps at the door? Do you reckon the smell of....? It's life-the the dark that binds you Frightened by your own smell Bitterness will run you through Silent screaming Turning, twisting the alphabet Frantic eyes Awaiting the answer Splinters of a poem Fragments of what you used to be Habitual and gullible Run-down memoirs is all that's left Do you wish to sleep? Do you aim for the shadow? Do you feel infected? It's life-the the dark that binds you It's the cowardice that pulls you under And takes you to the end, where it begins Release, the world is waiting on your arrival Close your eyes, as we witness another bullet ride Do you know about atrocity? Do you that everybody's gone? Do you know that you're on your own? It's life-the the dark that binds you
As I aim for that bright white day Conflict serum is my aura It seems that life's so fragile I guess I'll fly some other time I lack from superhighway thoughts Won't live as long as the city lights Soaked by underwater times Electric splash on a midnight drive Wish I could rape the day, just something radical Lost the sense of sweet things Who's gonna take me widely? Guided by the pinball map The driver, still unknown to me Who was sent to glorify? Before we injected this common pride Sometimes I don't belong Release me from your world Pacified by the small things in life I wait for earthquakes to rearrange Never been able to use the force I only have it read to me Despite all the misguided faith (Maybe) I'll find a place in this mess Early morning moments A glimpse of joy But soon it's over and I return to dust As I try to be Everything and everyone I shrivel up and waste away
I can?t tolerate your sadness Cause it?s me you are drowning I won?t allow any happiness Cause everytime you laugh, I feel so guilty, I feel so guilty Am I forced to have any regret I?ve become the lie, Beautiful and free In my righteous own mind I adore and preach the insanity you gave to me Sell me the infection, it is only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me I?ve lost the ability to paint the clouds Cause it?s me you?re draining I?m stuck in this slow-motion dark day Cause everytime you run, I fall.. Behind, I fall behind And so I hear my voice again The tale of the bitter man here I am Shake the silence and hear what it says The tranquil pride that become the lie Sell me to infection, it is only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me Sell me to infection, it is only for the weak On bleeding knees, I accept my fate
For so long I tried to be like you, Pushed aside with no time to evolve.. There's no place that still remains Just deserted space all left in grey Why did we lose, the knowledge of time? Is this the price, the hell we pay? The poisoned fear known to man is he who try to find his path The collective force blaming you "This is day day we split in half" Thrown to the gallow, forgotten and sore sworn to be different in what way I can The sultry taste that is special to me is the last gleeful glimpse of a bitter man Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I'm at the end again All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today So impressed, lost the faith in all I had Broken down, I'm on my way to be dissolved The hopes and prays of things to come I've lost them all with glory Urgent to aim for that short-lived joy I see gold in all that lies before me And so we ignore the baggers cup Praise your act in the Grand Finale Teach the unborn the winners sign a welcome grin to the world Royal Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I'm at the end again All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I'm at the end again All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today
For all the times you left me bleeding Clouded, weakened by the haze Cut of my pride, enough to forgive Reconcile, back to square nothing It seems I lost my direction Don't have the strength to let it slip Have no desire for the shore Just let me play here for some time Spend some quality time with the demon of mine I like the way you struggle but you know I'm here to win Is this how I want to spend my days? Shadowed, it fears me, my utopia Try to find some peace to destroy These are my sins, I'm heading to fall Never understood though I accepted All the weakness that I discover You gave me a place to hide and lost the key Drowned my head just to see it sink (to the bottom) Spend some quality time with the demon of mine He said "I like the way you struggle but you know I'm here to win" Spent some quality time with my borrowed smile The gleam is replaced, rip me open and erase me Spent some quality time with the demon of mine I like the way you struggle but you know I'm here to win" Spent some quality time with my borrowed smile The gleam is replaced, rip me open and erase me
Your self control makes me feel alone I've tried confidence, had it for breakfast today I've lost the perfection, a mess without words (And) As the seasons change I'll continue to ignore The image I project - me without me The picture that I scanned is borrowed After the education you stopped making sense to me Seems to me that it's all the same, time and time again Slowly, all that I believed in, turning into a lie To aim and miss, my supernatural art Spending to much time with myself Trying to explaining who I am How come it's possible I wish there was a way (Suddenly) I feel so invincible I'm the sculpture made out of clay I need someone to break the silence before it all falls apart I need something to cling onto before I break you in parts So afraid of what you may think And all the plastic people that surrounds me I have to find the path to where it all begins To teach the world my supernatural art
Since the day of my departure I've been stumbling through reality I play my symphony in reverse In search for that special path Be gentle to the tear in this I Lonesome arms, lost its wings again Buy me a trip to the moon So I can laugh at my mistakes I can see the end from here From this perspective it looks kind of silly Satellites and astronauts Tell me there are greater things ahead Make me feel like a man A silent cry from the middle of hell I - the irony - I promise, I'll be mature So please, invite me to your shelter again Been hiding since I heard "never" Take me back to yesterday, I need to grow Steal my mask and make me pay I need a new skin I'm going insane
In the most desolate corner A bad case of the urban blues Another brick in the living shadow All inhale the downward spiral Hey, get in line for tragic Let us dance to the pistol magic Just aim and end another But think, as I rape your mother Another player joins the table Who I can or cannot trust When do we get assigned? Pure and precious with bad intentions Hey, come and join the show All the cameras are ready to go Just aim and end another But think, as I rape your mother A single step - a garbled life Where's the profit? Your rage - the pain Will it all be worth it? Genetic, it seems to be.... Abandon, the mass ideal Lets re-unite and brush the dust away We think we're in control then we become the things we hate Lets re-unite and brush the dust away Obtain a prosperous future and the admiration of all Act in "the sensations" media hour All inhale the downward spiral
As we build a brand new planet Let's reconstruct and get it straight Unlock forgotten skills Travel to a new dimension Solace from the dark seduction (Take heed) we are the new invention We're the settlers of year zero Let's reconstruct and take it back Leaders of our time Heading for a downfall The threshold of revolution (Take heed) the last freedom call Blanked out fire etched on the crystal display The sees are deep You better swim Don't go numb Collect the word, add some gold and give it back The sees are deep You better swim Don't go numb From a thousand branches Spreading the new voice As we're heading for the throne Connect, evolution will begin
The self-inflicted state of mind A one-man struggle beneath the tower I think the clock still exist god just forgot to tap my shoulder I woke up today I wish I felt something The odour of my apathy just might be true I want to be the things I see The pilgrim that is me But I know I ain't that free The suburban me Spirits rise and miss the eye Covered by the stench of judgment As gods reflection test my pride I serve the failure that's haunting me Twisted visions torturing Who claims to be the one? That filtered smile just might be true "On half-speed, tonight I suffer Satisfaction brings the unheeded" Can you hear the message, as I wrestle with the clouds? I'm on the way to succumb, It just might be true
The other side of the platinum door another day in quicksand Still feel close to nowhere I hope this is the right way How come you see me as an enemy? We just think in different words I see beauty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away There's no shame in being the fool I've been to places you'll never find The empty plate that you call home Won't bring glimmer to future years By myself, staring into space You're just bored of the silence it makes
They come from a land were the sun don't shine running away from the cold They travel so far in the name of love hoping the dreams will come true Walking the way through endless fields trying to make it together Troubled within ever sinking kiss Just like the full to fall in love And they will give anything just to be free from the pain and they won't surrender Living in a world of promises Living in a world of dreams and hopes Living in a world of promises Lost in the city wondering why no one will open the door It's more to the truth than meets the eye something they all felt before And they will give anything just to stand tall once again and they won't surrender Living in a world of promises Living in a world of dreams and hopes Living in a world of promises In the tan of the nigh can hear them crying out for a life to hol on to Somebody knows were the answers lying wait for your trails and don't let go Living in a world of promises Living in a world of dreams and hopes Living in a world of promises
One lie was all it took everything ended right there You didn't seem to care One lie I walked away weight on my shoulders was heavy Barrel to my head Will you give me a good excuse Will you let me die right here and now ? I can't think of another way But I'm open to any good advice Everything is falling apart Trying hard to be strong and smart One day was all it took Start to get back on my feet heart begin to beat One week I'm feeling great dancing around in the street Feeling young and free Will you give me a good excuse Will you let me die right here and now ? I can't think of another way But I'm open to any good advice Everything is falling apart Trying hard to be strong and smart
It started as a whisper Now try to dodge this roar Unified, the most forceful way to go Waste this one? It's up to you! We need this revolution Destroy the pattern Anything that separates Across the times. Who dares to follow? For years we wandered these circles Hold onto whatever lie gets us through Design new latitudes Find ways to channel bliss Us defined, it's too fragile to neglect Reroute to Remain Reroute to Remain Never want, to look back in greed Can I please have your attention? There are mountains to cross For all that are willing There a never ending treasures That await you
I cannot frame, that's why I lose control I aim, I stumble and I fall Our adaptation can't be faithful Your world does not attract me This is the end you see There is no more truth in me As if you would deserve it You are my enemy I can't ignore the way you make me bleed I hate when you throw my thoughts against the wall Got to wake up and make a stand The desperation forces another mistake I count again I know who to blame My life in vain Who said I was sane? Follow your instinct It usually takes you home Don't let these words tear you down You see me hanging By the end of the rope I tell you... Slow I go And the wait seems to be over All that I know Is that my life has become such a waste for you I blame and run, sadly all too often I dive into the day without your sympathy I tend to try but lack the focus Becoming a distant memory What once was is quickly forgotten All wrapped up inside Delete all resemblance I feel your relief
It's hard to believe You could be such a disease I can no longer separate what is real Hope that fate will find me safe All my reflections laugh at me You made me hide my name It just feels bad to say, That there'll be another day What you wanted was impossible to define The words I hear are of scrambled letters Guess it's been there for years Never let me know, I was alright What you wanted is a mystery to me The words I hear are of scrambled letters Guess it's been there for years Never let me know, I was alright Building a room with no doors Is this the last of me? Wring the rag for the last few drops Falling into infinity What you wanted was impossible to define The words I hear are of scrambled letters Guess it's been there for years Never let me know, I was alright What you wanted is a mystery to me The words I hear are of scrambled letters Guess it's been there for years Never let me know, I was alright What you wanted was impossible to define The words I hear are of scrambled letters Guess it's been there for years Never let me know, I was alright What you wanted is a mystery to me The words I hear are of scrambled letters Guess it's been there for years Never let me know, I was alright
Have we lost the spark or a guide? What's the latest on the screen? Can't be too late to turn around I need all the help from you I need to find Something to blame for a long lost time I am running from something that I don't know I am searching for something, which way to go? I am trying to separate what's real I'm running in a wheel Is it dark or is it bright? What's the latest on the screen? Please tell me my name I haven't checked it today From green to red our days pass by Waiting for a sign to tell us why Are we dancing all alone? Collect some stars to shine for you And start today 'cause there's only a few A sign of times my friend My friend avoid infinity Are you for real? Just scratch the surface And you will find Something to blame for a long lost time
People like you You live in a dream world You despise the outside And you fear you're the next one It's in your dream There's just one question Should I kill? Or should I be left behind? Sick and tired Of all your complaints This is the hour We bring it down I've come to realize Every little glimpse, you fade I was told that I could fly When least expected, cloud connected You seem to be So introverted How come we fail? With all that is given? You crossed the line You remembered my name Time runs backwards As we're heading that way
Consume all the obscene Persuade the most hideous and ugly Under every pile and stone A rebirth, for you to find Freedom is to be able To go in any direction So take the uncertain path One foot in the open Ten feet ahead Build your own ladder And don't lie to yourself Secrets left above the grave (It's not for one to keep) You're all so self destructive Spend more time with the broken (see what became of their mistake) You know you're lost when you feel transparent Be at one with the wind Even if it's a struggle Make this your priority Open all your senses To new impressions Act like all that was has vanished
The thoughts of yesterday forgotten I like the way this new skin feels Bring me splinters of tomorrow Collect the parts where I win Against the grain Against the odds I'll rise and I won't trip again The dawn of a new day never looked As good as this Concrete breath and dust filled tears A one way ride to inner peace I never thought I'd join the others Those who use the dice to solve
A mass illusion Blind men in a line They smother their fires with gasoline A stranger's contribution Everybody's on the run No clue where they are heading A spineless attempt Have we lost it completely? It always ends up in a mess A liar's ambition Praised like a king Every day in every way We are getting weaker You won't go far With the life that you're living Every day in every way We are getting weaker Slow and calculated Afraid of the sleeping We'll never ever reach the goal
Drug me, infiltrate my never land Like the floodtide drowning the shore Drug me, you're all over me Watch my blood begin to boil I love that lullaby Start me up again Electric spine Open mind I leave you, negative behind Watch me all in flames, on a butterfly I ride Inhale the light Relax for some time The world outside stays numb tonight Free your mind express the forgotten The world inside is yours tonight Please me, deliver the insane In the chaos I find peace Please me, remind the gods of my name I believe there is one seat left for me
Will we find a solution When we add all the numbers? Like they are supposed to be? But no is close... Start all over! If we fail our expectations We will fall into the deepest void Is there a limit to how many times We will dust ourselves off? The mystery of time Listen to me, carefully The mystery of time It's you and me That's all we need Would you choose supremacy If it led to isolation? Could you handle the solitude? Would you still prefer the throne?
Mirror Mirror How far will I go? Despite the foundation I am falling Sweet reflection Will you save a place for me? Where am I heading? Could you grant me a haven? For what? I am punished could I ever repent? Mother Nature, I'm wide open Waiting for you to move me Don't keep it from me This is a free fall I never seem to understand The time, the place and who I am Define a way to stay alive It's like I'm living a lie Father time every time I stop and feel You're there to tell me I'm already late
Held down, strangled and abused Cut down to half a member Left with his hand tied Everything points in the wrong direction All the joy disappeared The negative has penetrated Once he was in control What's left, the faintest laughter We're out of focus, we've lost control I blame our ego and you call me names You're told that you are trapped below And dark signs helped to prove You got to reach further For what life shall provide Feeling pressure from the fold He believes the dream is over Drained blue eye, scorching fire The whole meaning becomes undone
You stole my pure intention You are the sickness in between Let me in, I'll bury the pain You taught me to be sad at you You almost made me take it all Let me in, I'll bury the pain You bend me and you shake me You beg me then you break me Let me in, I'll bury the pain You made me feel like a sinner Now you fear you'll die alone Let me in, I'll bury the pain The sickness that you are The plague that made me starve You think you can show me how I've come this far I feel it's taking over Everything falls dark Break me open The desperate cry
I am one with the world tonight I am proud to be this far from you You say that you have no regrets But I know that you do You told me someone stole the eye I know him too I've come to the conclusion, yes I know That between black and white There is no room for two The scale it might be wide But there's no need to be blind Between black and white there is no room for two I leave all the grey behind I see clear, I know that I'll find You claim that you are innocent But tell me who ain't You think that you're going to be saved There's no such thing as a saint Black and White There's nothing in between Black and White Nothing's what it seems
As they all felt the fire They turned me into an outsider I never heard from them again So ironic when you called for a favor today It's always easy to judge But it takes a lot to be specific Cause as you preach you're opening the door To your egos past There was a day when I could forget I could forgive but those days are gone I see them fade Filth in every new day Filth runs in every new day I learned to mute the anger I never thought I would be there again a moment, a dead end I lost myself in here Filth in every new day Filth runs in every new day I ran as I saw the end Should I have joined the fight instead Hope you are listening cause now times have changed I take a look around I say this moments mine Flee all the weak minds Feel my missed hidden rage Filth in every new day Filth runs in every new day
Spinning further, deeper I know you're out to try me I'm not in this to be a slave Push the dirt, make me feel Locate what swallows life Night bird you build my world ..and then I close my eyes ..and then I close my eyes Judge me now Used to be afraid to let it show, bow down A king in my own mind Everything's in place so much brighter from today Drown the monster Make all bad dreams go away Whatever it takes to keep your hands free Open scars, the quiet place All the bridges fall to the ground and you say you sacrificed ..and then I close my eyes ..and then I close my eyes Judge me now Used to be afraid to let it show, bow down, bow down! A king in my own mind Everything's in place so much brighter from today A king in my own mind Judge me now A king in my own mind Judge me now A king in my own mind Judge me now Used to be afraid to let it show, Bow down, bow down! A king in my own mind Everything's in place so much brighter from today A king in my own mind
I'll always belong to the shadow Don't show me new results I will never enter your heaven Make the most of my dirty cell Creeps infected by control That's what put me in here Dig deep don't think you ever get to the place where they buried me The last glimpse that I had Fragments, pieces of some things valuable Even though it doesn't make sense anymore I release my last fear [Chorus:] The cold worms and me We're alone and free The dead light inside Fuel to new seed We're alone and free When there are only my bones Please put them in use Want to be part of a new dawn The darkness disappears Don't release these chains Never been closer to myself All your mistakes run though As I realize what we become The end is here to bid farewell I'll turn to ash and hear them sing Songs about my emotions dead and alone Don't make an effort you don't know me anyway My frustration, my conversation, why are we even here? The abuse that we use I do not longer care
Reaching depth of clarity I'm not supposed to be like this I should be on the top of the world Is anybody out there like me? I followed something's missing Self control Forcing me down Whispers consume the air Above her I'm endless When the rain comes falling I'll freeze I'm so afraid When things start to flood me I will drown in seconds Fear - There's no way out Touch of red Break away Nothing has it all Bury the place I've been I fear there's no way out As If I ever had a choice All in the hands of the energy Once again feel the quicksand swallow me Tonight = I won't struggle Fear - There's no way out Touch of red Break away Nothing has it all Bury the place I've been I fear there's no way out The weak in me should know I'm as sober as I could be Fear - There's no way out Touch of red Break away Nothing has it all Bury the place I've been I fear there's no way out
I can be as angry as I want to be Just watch me burn I think you're way too cold Just watch and learn I'll never sleep here anymore My house is not my home I like you better dead And I'm better off alone Destiny, will you cure me? Trust, will you age with me? Hear me scream Destiny, will you cure me? Hear me scream as I face tomorrow Your vision may be in colour, but you look all pale In these times we should be learning, but with you I'll always fail Destiny, will you cure me? Trust, will you age with me? Hear me scream Destiny, will you cure me? Hear me scream as I face tomorrow I need to save myself before I drown It took so long to see The world your mind creates It pushes me under Destiny, will you cure me? Trust, will you age with me? Hear me scream Destiny, will you cure me? Hear me scream as I face tomorrow
I'm selling heavenly sketches A world out of my mind Ready to explode in purity to fill the holes inside An ever moving stream with glowing rays of light Emotions tied to pass lies and I know I should let go Tamed with confidence of a brighter future I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out! Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more Another dawn collapses Do I need to be reminded A glimpse of my safe home A path to hide all anger I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out! Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more In circles I catch A torch carried by the immortal From depths that I created In vain echoes fade Burn out! Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more Fueled, Dark past lies cold For you I look no more
We were one in words You finished my sentence I could never attract tomorrow It pushes me aside I sink in waters deep Your presence kept me floating far from depths where secrets lie Maybe in another lifetime I can be the first you meet I once read a poem Held my breath but that moment's gone First time I felt life somewhat hurts I need an option, a reason and some hope Yell at me, I want to be your light that shines But my ground is shaking, and I might fall I wish that I could say, I wish that I could be your evil in a closet Yell at me, I want to be your light that shines But my ground is shaking and I might fall I wish that I could say, I wish that I could be your evil in a closet
It hurts to think Can't get the sums together Would you draw my bitterness Make the pictures fade Could it be that I see What's beneath when we fall The truth in ever I'm scared that I will be The sentence is light But my eyes see a different world And all I do is turn into flames Will time open my vault New solution, I'm begging Break the fuse that holds me back The I is lost in me But I am ready to give you The M, It might even be the E As I begin to search for I The I is lost in me Distract, push me in another direction This wall that I stare into It's getting old Give me faith to reach for the new Pull me apart and do me all over I'll need a re-make To make up for my mistakes The I is lost in me But I am ready to give you The M, It might even be the E As I begin to search for I The I is lost in me What if I stop to care? What if I let you fall? What if I stop to care? What if I let you fall? The I is lost in me But I am ready to give you The M, It might even be the E As I begin to search for I The I is lost in me
You Took a knife and carve it in Want to see your faults As a part of your pretty skin Everyone has a tragedy I want you to wear yours in pain Oblivion can no longer shade you Reminded by the tattered tissue Bleak silence Errors stigmatized in you A weak worn out friend There's nothing left for me Again and again Your face reminds me of a bleak future Despite the absence of hope I give you this sacrifice You're so far, behind Be my hero Drift away Save yourself Don't end up zero Cause I look the other way I will crawl into your vault Pass snakes and old rotten thoughts Leaving a hotbed of virulence Your world inside slowly redesigned Again and again Your face reminds me of a bleak future Despite the absence of hope I give you this sacrifice You're so far, behind Be my hero Drift away Save yourself Don't end up zero Cause I look the other way Again and again Your face reminds me of a bleak future Despite the absence of hope I give you this sacrifice You're so far, behind Be my hero Drift away Save yourself Don't end up zero Cause I look the other way You're so far, behind Be my hero Drift away Save yourself Don't end up zero Cause I look the other way (Save yourself)
I am the past, Future I've been chosen You think it's over But I'm ready to go I am what you fear I've been chosen The world as you know it just died It's the end of all time I am a surprise Even to myself I'm a genius Superhero of the computer rage In plastic I'll bury I am what you fear I've been chosen The world as you know it just died It's the end of all time Everything you say is denied I'll be the devil on this ride Dark clouds in your heaven Your end has only begun You can scream but there's no rescue I promise I'll make you sure you that die in time I am the maggot In your infected life No matter how hard you try I'll leave without a scar I am a legend In your infotainment life It's when I say "it's over" It's you who's been chosen Everything you say is denied I'll be the devil on this ride Dark clouds in your heaven Your end has only begun You can scream but there's no rescue I promise I'll make you sure that you die in time Everything you say is denied I'll be the devil on this ride Dark clouds in your heaven Your end has only begun You can scream but there's no rescue I promise I'll make you sure that you Dark clouds in your heaven Your end has only begun You can scream but there's no rescue I promise I'll make you sure that you're dead
Could it be a new day? Fear in me so deep You push me out, I feel far The absence, close to me The other side I crawl You push me out, I fall Heal my wounds, take everything away, You convocate me Sick of cycles, drop to zero A while just like last times My least favorite re-run Sick of cycles, I bounce in gray Escape familiar home Memories remains alone Reality trapped inside The wicked descend Testing higher mentality I conquer myself through this A furious path to walk New space exists beyond In silence I dwell displeased Remain with the seed of unfulfilment Heal my wounds, take everything away, You convocate me Sick of cycles, drop to zero A while just like last times My least favorite re-run Sick of cycles, I bounce in gray Escape familiar home Memories remains alone Reality trapped inside The wicked descend - I hide Heal my wounds, take everything away, You convocate me Sick of cycles, drop to zero A while just like last times My least favorite re-run Sick of cycles, I bounce in gray Escape familiar home Memories remains alone Reality trapped inside The wicked descend - I hide Escape familiar home Memories remains alone Reality trapped inside The wicked descend - I hide
I really don't have anything to say Just pass me by Don't ask me the same questions Just deny I am there Like the time around me This room is filled with nothing Fell awkward in a place with many Leave this space to me I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again Still and breathless I don't care what's behind To you I look for energy To catch my breath again I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again I'm in circles again The world looks old to me Tonight I drink myself sober Soon this could be over Tale a picture of the pale New morning knocking Feels just like always Pen down my regrets I reach to you again I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again I'm in circles again
I run this world alone A song stuck in my mind Are you feeling alright? Don't mind if you ask me once Discover me like emptiness A defense for a broken heart Still offers a smile to the world betrayed... [Pre Chorus:] Always close to the drop Disappear with yesterday Cure this dream that makes me fall [Chorus]: Blame me... Escape me... Well it's you who walked away Tie me... For my sake To the dream that haunts you Could never stand the middle Want to go far and further But something drags me down Shapes me... Forms me... into delusion... As I bank other options Make this picture distant Signing off Leave me alone I blur you into... the never...
It?s not so much the pain It?s more the actual knife Pretending the picture is perfect I cut myself to sleep I close my eyes for a second And curse my fragile soul I scream to hide that I?m lonely The echo calls my name If I ever, If I never Make me understand the thought whatever Make me see. Make me be Make me understand you?re there for me Take this life, I?m right here Stay awhile and breathe me in Take this life, I?m right here Stay awhile and breathe me in The rain drops just beg to hit me What now? Hasn?t rained for days No time to play hide-and-seek I call on you to take me on Break me down to pieces Put me back, do it right this time Struggling to fill this empty shell Burn all my efforts In the end it means nothing If I ever, If I never Make me understand the thought whatever Make me see. Make me be Make me understand you?re there for me Take this life, I?m right here Stay awhile and breathe me in Take this life, I?m right here Stay awhile and breathe me in These thoughts, burn a hole in my heart These thoughts, will keep me free and These thoughts, burn a hole in my heart These thoughts, will keep me free and If I ever, If I never Make me understand the thought whatever Make me see. Make me be Make me understand you?re there for me Take this life, I?m right here Stay awhile and breathe me in Take this life, I?m right here Stay awhile and breathe me in
Leeches. Like leeches "In ignorance we trust" If you say this way, I?ll take that way Fuel for the fire on which I thrive Spit me out I?m glad I don?t belong Save me the speech (I know) You?ll be forgotten and gone It burns, it rips, it hurts Leeches, they preach to us Words of wisdom from blocked minds Spit me out I?m glad I don?t belong Save me the speech (I know) You?ll be forgotten and gone It burns, it rips, it hurts They make you believe your turn The chance of a lifetime, How does it feel to be alive? A tear for the poet that can?t be heard (And) praise the artist that steals
Shot for shot Many bullets penetrate me Embrace me Tell me stories of golden gods The precision in your voice Pierce the walls that I've built Your eyes reach deep in me Take a chance They don't come much bigger than this Dark star spend another day with me A dead surface that doesn't reflect The storm underneath Take the chance Bring me the calm ...And it leaves nothing Expose the dark side, Aching and emotional, Expose the dark side, Impossible to tame Away from the light of the sun Away I find what is really me Throw yourself into the eye of chaos Infiltrate me, Sneak out before I awake Take out the trash and burn it Try and find a beautiful place to lay These fragile bones of mine Away from the light of the sun Away I find what is really... Away from the light of the sun Away I find what is really me ... And it leaves nothing Expose the dark side, aching and emotional Expose the dark side, impossible to tame Away from the light of the sun Away I find what is really... Away from the light of the sun Away I find what is really... Away from the light of the sun Away I find what is really me
Save all your prayers I think we lost today There's no morning after And no one's around to blame I'm not afraid to bleed But I won't do it for you A star among hypocrites The melody of our time So say goodbye to the world We are the dead that walk the earth Scream your lungs out Wait for laughter You don't have to wait forever It's the next disaster! What decides when you've lost the war When the first man falls? Or when they erase it all? We're too numb to feel The downfall starts right here Hold your breath and swim Swallowed my life's tear In times of make believe No one really seems to care Maybe I should care less 'Cause I will die too So say goodbye to the world We are the dead that walk the earth Scream your lungs out Wait for laughter You don't have to wait forever It's the next disaster! What will it take for us to realize The more we provoke Winter will come twice Save all your prayers I think we lost today There's no morning after And no one's around to blame Scream you lungs out Wait for laughter You don't have to wait for ever Here's the next disaster! Here's the next disaster!
We are ordinary people, We all live different lives In the end we're pretty much the same We're just living in different lies We just live in different lies! We just live in different lies! They scream, You scream, I scream We scream but no one listens Abuse to feel superior, Is it working for you? They scream, You scream, I scream We scream but no one listens Abuse to feel superior, Is it working for you? We are ordinary people, In a world build on stress When we build walls around us We end up in a mess
Rushing through thirty Getting older every day... by two Drawing pictures of innocent times Can you add color... inside these lines? I want you to lead me Take me somewhere Don't want to live In a dream... one more day I want you to lead me Take me somewhere Don't want to live In a dream... one more day Sure it would change my perspective I'm certain I would change today I'm certain it would change our ways Would things fall into place? I want you to lead me Take me somewhere Just don't want to live In a dream one more day In a dream one more day
The yesterday we loved speak of tomorrow. The burden of man is that time never takes a pause. We live from Monday to Sunday but we forget what it means.

The black hole forever mine. I need fear. Push me out Oh be brave Show me signs Should I feel shame for the questions that I have If you could be The things I need. I'll crawl through knives An inch per tear. These knees, they bleed for you. Let the colour persuade the hate That you fear. Feed the lie. Force the reason. Leave me in doubt.

In a disaster story A central conflict of primal rage Usual sort of desperation Characters remain the same Never cut you out, I cut you in Feeding on life leftovers I am writing to you You should realize It hurts in me, too Walk on broken glass Is the pain safe at the end? All the elements in life's complexity Make our struggle infinite Never cut you out, I cut you in Feeding on life leftovers I am writing to you You should realize It hurts in me, too All the elements in life's complexity Make our struggle infinite Never cut you out, I cut you in Feeding on life leftovers I am writing to you You should realize It hurts in me, too (I cut you in) Feeding on life leftovers I am writing to you You should realize It hurts as I cut you in
Vanishing light The end of a compromise In fury, in rage A dream will diminish Behind enemy lines Learn to survive Find a way to clone Make friends and a place to call home Take a picture and jump before we crash Take a picture and jump before we crash Slide away Learn your ways and fire when ready This is a race To no mans land But who knows the direction?

Find time and play with innocence Like you ever would I don't see you make any sense I guess you deliver misery Just like you should 1 o'clock and you paint the skies grey It's not your fault We're the ones who betray But how can you say it with such ease You want to take a stand or just wanna please Your bedtime story is scaring everyone But you make me understand The evil that man do The evil that man do
This spectacle, our collapse It's not a false alarm The ashes settle in. I guess, we are the insane As we ignore the mirror's truth Should I join the feast? Should I acknowledge the leash? A future in captivity I'm not who I'm supposed to be. Without even trying (killing the last scene) Let this light explode. The bleeding, we deceive them Fuel the life that fades At the height of reason We shouldn live by your laws Call the swarm Feed them another false hope. Without even trying (killing the last scene) Let this night explode Without even trying Find the exit sign and disappear Without even trying (killing the last scene) Let this night explode Without even trying Find the exit sign and disappear
Look at the dead outside my window Wonder what's on their mind? Why do they run? They all seem to have a mission But then they cry themselves to sleep You receive what you give And this is like nothing I feel like shit But at least I feel something Is this all you meant to be? Their marks in the pavement You've walked this route too many times What if I changed the signs? Would you even take notice? You receive what you give And this is like nothing I feel like shit But at least I feel something Is this all you have to give? So... March... Straight jacket union... So... March... In chains - surrender You receive what you give And this is like nothing I feel like shit But at least I feel something You receive what you give And this is like nothing I feel like shit But at least I feel something
Hopeless times approach Just give into the chaos Strangely I find comfort here Impatient and curious of what may come ...And so the rampage begins Against the headache I can't win Drain Me Keep me in the dark I don't want to take part Prefer to be forever numb Nothing great can come out of this But I'm hostage to myself I fear I might collapse on the razor's edge And I fear I'll realize when it's too late ...And so the rampage begins Against the headache I can't win Drain Me Keep me in the dark I don't want to take part Prefer to be forever numb Sleepless again I need to ease my mind And kill what burns inside Sleepless again I can't win Drain Me Keep me in the dark I don't want to take part Prefer to be forever numb
The serpent knows, When the curtain falls, With denials blindfold, He greets another day Don't believe the mask It adapts to any lie, A perfect ten, When reality caves in Don't tell me, Tell my ghost, 'cause I blame him For all I don't want to know I found secrets about life's undertow Life's wrapped in a riddle, Easier said than done, Way to play the victim, Rather run and hide. Don't believe the mask It adapts to any lie, A perfect ten, When reality caves in Don't tell me, Tell my ghost, 'cause I blame him For all I don't want to know I found secrets about life's undertow Let them take me far away Crawl back in place, It's easier to cope behind the curtain, Wipe the worries away No thought about the consequence Don't believe the mask It adapts to any lie, A perfect ten, When reality caves in Don't tell me, Tell my ghost, 'cause I blame him For all I don't want to know I found secrets about life's undertow Let them take me far away
I am my deepest shadow, Something I can't ever neglect, Rise above these ashes, Or fall and fade away In dark moments, I know better, Within destruction, I see clearly From here to new grounds, Suppose I will be doing it alone, With a smile through black design Fearless of your conviction Staring into truth, I am the highway, Existence, care for me in all Your everlasting complications In dark moments, I know better Within destruction, I see clearly From here to new grounds, Suppose I will be doing it alone, With a smile through black design Fearless of your conviction Forget the promised land, There was never an invitation, Today I create my own, Before there was sorrow And lack of attention From here to new grounds, Suppose I will be doing it alone, With a smile through black design Fearless of your conviction
Everyday takes figuring out how to live, Sometimes it feels like a mistake, Sometimes it's a winner's parade, Delight and angers, I guess that's the way it's supposed to be... Please heal me, I can't sleep Thought I was unbreakable, but this is killing me Call me, everything, make me feel unbreakable, Lie and set me free I feel the fear takes hold Afraid this hell I create is my own Calm my franticness, I can't take it anymore, This used to be my own world, But now I've lost control Please heal me, I can't sleep Thought I was unbreakable, but this is killing me Call me, everything, make me feel unbreakable, Lie and set me free Chasing leftovers, Under the fading sun, Searching for shelter, I feel my time has come Please heal me, I can't sleep Thought I was unbreakable, but this is killing me Call me, everything, make me feel unbreakable, Lie and set me free
Consume the curse That brings you down (A fading liar) Who wakes up alone It's there In front of you Invert this tragedy to come And reclaim your future This is a call to arms One quest at a time Feed the hunger, Climb on up Repress the negative You are not alone It's there In front of you Invert this tragedy to come And reclaim your future This is a call to arms One quest at a time Avoid the mould Desperate you regress Move through me I'll be your triumph Invert this tragedy to come And reclaim your future This is a call to arms One quest at a time
Tell me which side I'm on Approaching constant failure Tell me which side I'm on (Who's friend or foe?) Approaching constant failure Between love and hate Which path to follow? How can I keep balance in this race? Come faith, I'm dying (slowly) In many ways I'm the burden that devides us from the light In many ways you're the halo that keeps my spirit alive Temptation Play the good or evil part With me, you evoke the dark Erase the free will and watch me heal Tell me which side I'm on Approaching constant failure Between love and hate Which path to follow? How can I keep balance in this race? Come faith, I'm dying... Amused by the trials and tribulations If I survive I fly from here But as the chosen pessimist I carve my name in stone I carve my name in stone Amused by the trials and tribulations If I survive I fly from here How can I keep balance in this race? Come faith I'm dying...
Used to be original, But now I tremble in fear I am like everyone else And that buries me Is this how it feels To reach rock bottom Want to know how it feels to be forgotten? I've become the distance, I am the sober and irrelevant, I don't feel part in this, What is there to believe? I'm not asking for much, just a moment A chance to pick up the pieces Happiness, please, come home What if it ends right here How do I change it? Hoping to find a saviour I've lost my way I've become the distance, I am the sober and irrelevant, I don't feel part in this, What is there to believe? Is this how it feels To reach rock bottom Want to know how it feels to be forgotten? Hoping to find a saviour I've lost my way I've become the distance, I am the sober and irrelevant, I don't feel part in this, What is there to believe?
So restless, These walls drain my thoughts Room 307 Can't find my way out It used to be my home This cage, far from my comfort zone Alive but without control... Fear is taking hold I should cross the line Confront like the blind Hear a distant cry... Would you tell me how To break the cycle that I'm in And discover the living? I don't recognize my soul Condemned to live in this black hole? Dig within time... and crave what is mine. Hear a distant cry... Would you tell me how To break the cycle that I'm in And discover the living? I should cross the line... Confront like the blind Hear a distant cry... Would you tell me how To break the cycle that I'm in It's a hill to climb Would be a dream if I, Design a future and Not the end of time
You won't Find a friendly face in the crowd, It's quite amusing to see how you suffer I refuse, to let you steal my daylight, Barely awake - but it strengthens my night rage I've seen you kill many dreams, But I got brand new armour, And your weapons are way out of reach How does it feel to be demolished, Vaporized into thin air? Strange new feeling to be nothing. All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing All drenched in fear, And the hate you bring Make me bother, I dare you, I've got the strength I need, But I'll await my darkest moment, When the guilt doesn't get to me. All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing All drenched in fear, And the hate you bring All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing All drenched in fear, And the hate you bring
I used to adore you The lies made sense somehow Gave myself away without a fight But the betrayal claims its price At first I was scared Not used to a murder's mind But there was something beautiful So powerful, so definite, so divine Pushing the faith Build out of rage Falling ideals Broken seals March to the shore You are a killer! Is it something that's always been there? Was it always destined to leave its cage? I'm glad we met though I love to release the rage But everything has its end And I've done my deed The final bullet - always meant for me Pushing the faith Build out of rage Falling ideals Broken seals March to the shore You are a killer! But everything has its end And I've done my deed The final bullet - always meant for me Falling ideals Broken seals March to the shore You are a killer! Falling ideals Broken seals March to the shore You are a killer!
Consume, just like a worm, Catch a glimpse of the sun through cracks, Everything, I swallow whole, And hide before the flood. The way I see things, I wish they could be true, But take me all the way. The trail of the torment, Is not a path anymore, But take me for a ride. Delete the past, the fear, Delete the past, every step is pure, Delete the past from here, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure. Afraid of lost control, Still there's a part of me that wants to feel insecure, Afraid of lost control, It keeps me on the edge. Delete the past, the fear, Delete the past, every step is pure, Delete the past from here, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure. The way I see things, I wish they could be true, But take me all the way. Delete the past, the fear, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure, Delete the past from here, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure.
We all find ourselves, In honour of the good cause. How empty we've become, With our sight to be the true force. Does every instinct say you're right? I think sometimes there is doubt. You're waiting for a re-run, But yesterday won't come. Want to relive the moment, But yesterday is done. Lies and desperation lead us through as we're trying to be heroic, I swept the world (?) to watch you manage. Take a step back, I'll tie you to it. You're waiting for a re-run, But yesterday won't come. Want to relive the moment, But yesterday is done. Hopes and prayers in pursuit of salvation, Take a short cut, it only bends our cause. But as far as I remember, There is nothing that will get back the days you lost. Does every instinct say you're right? I think sometimes there is doubt. You're waiting for a re-run, But yesterday won't come. Want to relive the moment, But yesterday is done.
We believe but we are deceased Or soon to be. I act surprised You've seen the seas, It's just enough to feed the trees. We believe but we are not free, This wasteland is our prison. I act surprised? I see the bones through your skin, This radiation from within. I grant you this torn land, I'd rather not live here anymore. Don't say I didn't try, But I'd rather not live here anymore. We believe but we don't see The coming of the storm. Why act surprised? There are warnings from time to time, Signs of our own decline. We are the scavengers, We plunder and rape, We're the guests here, the new breed, But act like it's ours to take. I grant you this torn land, I'd rather not live here anymore. Don't say I didn't try, But I'd rather not live here anymore. We believe but we don't see. I grant you this torn land, I'd rather not live here anymore. Don't say I didn't try, But I'd rather not live here anymore. I grant you this torn land, I'd rather not, Don't say I didn't try, But I'd rather not live here anymore.
You can find all you need The message is in the silence Whisper words to calm your mind Reach inside Numb the pain Come around with answers We are ghosts of the concrete world Genetic codes of a dying breed Will I be left behind? Sounds of a playground fading Staring into bright lights I am what I've done It is useless to hide An empty chamber Guess I was part of a plan We are ghosts of the concrete world Genetic codes of a dying breed Will I be left behind? Sounds of a playground fading We're running out of time Can't seem to recognize What put us here in the first place Counting down the days, beginning of the end We are ghosts of the concrete world Genetic codes of a dying breed Will I be left behind?...
Remind me I'm golden... The fortress above the sun Why don't you spend nowhere with me? Follow the river and the path of the ones I name... On the shore Forever I can't find Struggling in a world undefined... Or destroyed I don't want it to be I'm not in to live Fly into the distance Disappear for a while I can't make sense of this But we're here today feeling alive It starts to fall apart Let me take control Reminisce This is nothing more Something I will find again, deliver us Deliver us Can't hear the words you say Does it really matter? I'd give the world to you if you just Fly into the distance Disappear for a while I can't make sense of this But we're here today alive! Fly into the distance Disappear for a while I can't make sense of this But we're here today alive!
Until the world ceases to move! A burning feeling, let me call, "This is real!" I wish one more thing! I flinch my hands and bang my head! Take whatever comes to you, All the while - I don't need another friend. I burn when I do the things I do for you. Forever the night, it's all for me now, I'm sure that one day I can get you... All that you lost. I'm never told, "Bad I stay, so sick in me." I'm dying alone. We stand to fight for nothing! Without a thought of reason! We will never be OK! I burn when I do the things I do for you. Forever the night, and it's all for me now, I'm sure that one day I can get you... All you lost. A growing pain, it is hard to say what brought the darkest burden. For some of us there is no answer. Chains are breaking, I regret this built up inside of me. There's a storm coming. I will serve no more, 'til my heavy last breath! I burn when I do the things I do for you. Forever, the night, it's all for me now, I'm sure that one day I can get you... All that you lost.
And I tried to think Tried to paint the picture I lived it all Wouldn’t have to feel this way Looking for something to believe in I think I’ve done my time One by one the pieces fall Tell me what it is to believe You can tell days by their faces There is always signs Answers to the puzzle Grab a piece of the light Keep pretending I can handle everything You’ll never understand me And I don’t care what you think Or maybe I do
At least you could have tried It is way past time and we're scattering ashes You take everything in sight, please hear me now You are leaving me with scars Fear is the weakness in all of us It's sad to see you go It's not meant to be easy but you drag us down Burden of the evidence grows The same road for far too long It's not meant to be We are losing identity Faith has been denied Let's not pretend This is the first time we just don't belong What world do you perceive? Autumn cold, and no one cares for anyone Waiting for the final blow Do you have strength at all? One more day, then we fade away Fear is the weakness in all of us It's sad to see you go It's not meant to be easy but you drag us down Burden of the evidence grows The same road for far too long It's not meant to be We are losing identity Faith has been denied Let's not pretend This is the first time we just don't belong here
the pictures slowly fades, the walls are closing in, and there I was, cursing the ground, unable to understand I won’t let the world break me so I need to change direction nothing special I'm far from perfect light the way for me I won’t say I’m sorry, I got what I deserve feel I was running an endless mile, last candle it burns and I'm dying inside all of this will turn to ash a change for a piece of mind walking where the dead ships dwell these are shores I left behind streets were getting smaller and I have to leave feel I was running an endless mile, last candle it burns and I'm dying inside all of this will turn to ash a change for a piece of mind All I hear is noise heart so false so guess, I took it for granted I know I went too far I wont say I'm sorry I got what I deserved I got what I deserved feel I was running an endless mile, last candle it burns and I'm dying inside all of this will turn to ash a change for a piece of mind feel I was running an endless mile, last candle it burns and I'm dying inside all of this will turn to ash a change for a piece of mind
There's someone in the attic Building a strange machine Never really seen him But I think he works all day Blinded by the world outside, I stay inside Hardly know my name But it's getting better by time I saw something in the mirror Someone's watching me If I hide in the attic He will never get to me I found some rope on the floor I have to build a trap So I start on my machine I am never to be seen
September's here again Every insecurity reminds you Who's at the helm? Darker times With fear in the eyes Who's the man in charge? Invented isolation Alone and safe inside Struggle with words, That make sense in time Yet waiting for someone to enter Say, "I have a better plan" Never have to worry For all that we know The truth be told As we lay down low Walking the thin line Let the happiness in For now it's fine We're living the lie When light breaks Another way to matter All questions somehow answered When life comes crushing At the early break of day We've only come so far
How much can we take before we care to settle? Thought we were set for a perfect scene Everyone is waiting for a failure Something I can't please and justify The void within my eyes Everyone is waiting for something they cannot have Why don't you drop your guard I'm on my knees You got the mindset of a killer And it will not take you far If I had the answer would that make you stay? This is the time and place it is your moment of fate If this would be your last breath Would it change a thing? Dive head first into the fire If you just let me I'll find a way To ease your mind and for you to stay And I will untie all the ropes It's hard for me but believe me, I'm trying What are you longing for? What are you longing for? What are you longing for? If I had the answer Would that make you stay This is the time and place You are waiting for something you cannot have If this would be your last breath Would it change a thing? Dive head first into the fire If you just let me I'll find a way To ease your mind and for you to stay And I will untie all the ropes It's hard for me If you just let me I'll find a way To ease your mind and for you to stay And I will untie all the ropes It's hard for me, believe me, I'm trying
Twisting tongue Fallen off the edge again Need some space Need disgrace I'm confused I'm a maze I need for you to pick me up, when I fall down There's so much more We can go far But I can't control my selfish ways Enter tragedy, slash my soul Why is it a part of the plan? Do you question me? I question you Who's the man in front of me? I'm blindfolded, I can't see Need a reason, I'm left empty There's so much more, we can go far, But I can't control my selfish ways This inner apathy, brings me to life I know it's strange and it's draining me I'm tired, I'm fed up, I’m a Slave
I say goodbye to you all at once - Don't dare to face you all alone. I went from wreckage to world class with a box of t-shirts and some more records to sell but times have changed - I have to defend my actions. The foundation crumbles and I have to leave. Thanks for everything - I couldn't ask for more... I say I love you all... as I vanish through the Jester's Door.
I dreamed that you had died I'm forever alone I'm weakened, I'm frightened This place's about to change Things you said to me Believe and the things you might find Will turn into a march I stand alone and breathe again I won't stop until this is through And I can't wait to see the sunrise again (Its moments like this) I am what you'll never be To better what I am You won't hear lies from me Feel the sudden aches Time to get moving Getting somewhere with no directions I swear to you it will never be the same Its astray, but the road lies open Leaving all tears behind I stand alone and breathe again I won't stop until this is through And I can't wait to see the sunrise again (Its moments like this) I am what you'll never be To better what I am You won't hear lies from me And I can't wait to see the sunrise again (Its moments like this) I am what you'll never be To better what I am You won't hear lies from me Erase darkness from my mind Last remaining night From here to everywhere I stand alone and breathe again I won't stop until this is through And I can't wait to see the sunrise again (Its moments like this) I am what you'll never be To better what I am You won't hear lies from me
I know what it takes to break you You know I never sleep Just because you made them think Doesn't mean the world will fall into place Took some time but now you know Tomorrow is too late Close your eyes, walk with me, I'll set you free And everything you ask for I found a way And I'm returning soon I have to see those who do not know Rest in peace, I'm coming for you And will be, I will be with you Tonight If today was your last day Would that change a thing? You probably believe what you told them Live each moment like your last Well, close your eyes, walk with me, I'll set you free And everything you ask for I found a way And I'm returning soon I have to see those who do not know Rest in peace, I'm coming for you And will be, I will be with you Tonight I found a way And I'm returning soon I have to see those who do not know Rest in peace, I'm coming for you I will be with you I found a way And I'm returning soon I have to see those who do not know Rest in peace, I'm coming for you I will be, I will be with you Tonight
