Silent cries echo in this peaceful place
Eyes closed, nothing more to say
In the finest crest of ebony
A familiar name carved in ivory

I will forever owe my first one
For grabbing me, needing me, returning me
Facing tomorrow

We walked through halls of pain, holding close
Earth Mother and this father, earthbound together
We brought the memories home, holding close
Earth Mother and this father, earthbound forever

The earth now treasure my deprived
Once soft and pale, these memories stain
Underneath this stone a truth so cruel
All so divine the scavenger awaits its prey

This burden of grief pulling in me
So much colder and with no relief
Will your deeds make the scale sway the right way
The truth to it all revealed...

This hopeless life I led, my own blood I let shed
My body so weak and sore, waiting to be decomposed
Overwhelmed by this tragedy
Wrapped up in harmony
Close your eyes, no more will to be
As nature is delivering me

This burden of grief pulling in me
So much colder and with no relief
Will your deeds make the scale sway the right way
The truth to it all revealed...

Here in this garden of memories, I have searched for some clues To life
Feedback from those resting so wise, I wish they could tell me, It's all a lie

I believed in a life so delight, I'm so crestfallen, by the truth so Cold
After the storm there will be light, but right now, I don't want to Arise
I believed in a life so delight, I'm so crestfallen, by the truth so Cold
After the storm there will be light, but right now, I don't want to Arise

We walked through halls of pain, holding close
Earth Mother and this father, earthbound together
We brought the memories home, holding close
Earth Mother and this father, earthbound forever...

A deathlike silence sweeping the land
Murderer, a feeling of blame, feeding this sinister kiss
A room filled with the smell of death and decay
Anger wash over me as memories stir my mind

My body is numb, agonized and blind
These strange calls, from those who walked before their time

Spinning through emotional fields
I turned the nails, that closed this crest of belief

Once I surely tasted paradise
But now I weep
Will I ever see this paradise unveil
I will be searching for all my years

Strangely waiting among the shadow of the stones
I now feel connected while in your garden
Is there a king of vengeance who roams to punish me
Inside it feels, like a battle between good and evil

An internal storm that hates me
And this storm always outlasts me

I wish I could believe in angels and demons
I wish I could believe...
I wish I could believe in angels and demons
I wish, we could meet again

Welcome to my world of denial
Welcome to the realm of the lost
Come, feel the stillness of my garden
Where my blood has soaked the ground

Once I surely tasted paradise
But now I weep
Will I ever see this paradise unveil
I will be searching for all my years

I wish I could believe in angels and demons
I wish I could believe...
I wish I could believe in angels and demons
I wish - we could meet again

I will be searching for all my years

Our time was short
But unbreakable bonds in a flood of blood
This link to the past
Is forever a totem in my life

This place that we visit
Our secret that we groom and cherish
This pain I don't want to forget
Always a peace within me

Through sleepless nights
Cold-hearted facts of life
The meaning of it all so unfair
This ride I did not foresee

Flood River Blood
No time to waste
There was nobody there that could save you
Nobody there to help me

Flood River Blood
With power to breathe life
If there was a God he would have saved you
But now I have lost my belief

This token of love
All I have within my heart will be remembered
Your skin so cold
So cold, a touch so hard to explain

I have now found peace
A conclusion to where we inherit from
We can't rule over life
Down into the earth we will follow

Through sleepless nights
Cold-hearted facts of life
The meaning of it all so unfair
This ride I did not foresee

Flood River Blood
No time to waste
There was nobody there that could save you
Nobody there to help me

Flood River Blood
With power to breathe life
If there was a God he would have saved you
But now I have lost my belief

There is nothing here that can take me lower
Lower than this place I've already seen
"Take pride in what's in your heart, take advantage of this trial"

Through sleepless nights
Cold-hearted facts of life
The meaning of it all so unfair
This ride I did not foresee

Flood River Blood
No time to waste
There was nobody there that could save you
Nobody there to help me

Flood River Blood
With power to breathe life
If there was a God he would have saved you
But now I have lost my belief

Do you know this pain?
From the first sting in your heart - Forlorn...
All the ideas in your head
All the ideas in my head

What can you do about it
Try to hide behind the grace - All this noise...
All these crazy images in your head
All these crazy images in my head
All the ideas in my head

In blur distance, no future ahead
My world crash into pieces
It seems like old memories
From one life to another
Lines spinning in my head
Feelings that I can't remember
What happened, where did they go
These feelings that I can't remember

Look ahead so you don't fall behind
Thoughts keeps us up, give us hope
Look ahead so you don't fall behind
Thoughts keeps us up, give us hope
It gives us hope

Look ahead so you don't fall behind
Thoughts keeps us up, give us hope
Look ahead so you don't fall behind
Thoughts keeps us up, give us hope

Here on my weekly down trip
On a voyage of discovery - On display, like a freak show
While these crazy people are watching me
While these crazy people are watching me

As a deeper state of coma
A prescription from an unknown hand
Drifting into the drug
Injected to secure my ideas
Injected to secure my memories
All these crazy images in my head

Bloodlines left behind
Bones buried, hidden by earth
Life takes mysterious ways
In a blink of an eye, all twisted around
Burn my skin, pull out my nails
It won't heal, invisible scars inside
Bad luck, get your act together
Leaving, destination unknown

Look ahead so you don't fall behind
Thoughts keeps us up, give us hope
Look ahead so you don't fall behind
Thoughts keeps us up, give us hope
It gives us hope

I'm lost with fever
Drifting into this psycho-sphere
I wish the stars could tell me
Is this it, my last breath...all alone

I'm a master of denial
Don't even try to convince me
Am I conscious or lost
Could this be my final day...here on earth

I'm taking a leap of fate
Never to look back, or loose control
I'm beyond despair, in silence with my scars

I'm falling - loosing control
I'm falling - a desecrator

I'm lost with fever
This task called life I failed
I hear an echo from the unknown
I cannot exclude these cynical ideas

I'm taking a leap of fate
Never to look back, or loose control
I'm beyond despair, in silence with my scars

I'm falling - without control
I'm falling - a desecrator

I hear an echo from the past
I cannot exclude these cynical ideas
I'm heading into the unknown
All my fears are now at peace...all alone

I'm taking a leap of fate
Never to look back, or loose control
I'm beyond despair, in silence with my scars

I'm falling - loosing control
I'm falling - a desecrator

I'm leaving this planet earth
I'm leaving

In solitude, looking into the flame that burns
Alongside with your memory
Desolation, a picture of my fallen star
A broken branch in my family tree
In my family tree

I raise my head, now defying this obvious truth
That night came and our heaven turned to Hell
That night came and our heaven turned to Hell
Our heaven turned to Hell

Drowning hope, remembering all the pain
Fear of loosing memories in the daily haze
It was the time we should fill with laughter
Of our newly arriving joy

The siren grabs you with tragic hunger
Flashing blue, cutting through the view
A message of death, that no one could foresee
Inside this hall, waiting for the fall, waiting for the fall...

My fallen
May not live to roam this earth
My fallen
Changed my life forever
My fallen
Left a mark inside so sore
My fallen
Only solitude within my core

The siren grabs you with tragic hunger
Flashing blue, cutting through the view
A message of death, that no one could foresee
Inside this hall, waiting for the fall, waiting for the fall

How many dreams, I have chased on my road
I don't feel for anything anymore
All just fragments of disposable waste
A cesspool of terror, displaying hate

I have to face the day, still denying this obvious truth
That night came and our heaven turned to Hell
Our heaven turned to Hell...to Hell..

My fallen
May not live to roam this earth
My fallen
Changed my life forever
My fallen
Left a mark inside so sore
My fallen
Only solitude within my core

The siren grabs you with tragic hunger
Flashing blue, cutting through the view
A message of death, that no one could foresee
Inside this hall, waiting for the fall...the fall

It feels like I'm locked up in this dark room behind bars
Where my mind is the cell, and this heart piece of me went Missing
A shock that left me in the dark

Can I allow myself to have these feelings
Bringing me into temptation, pin down the reality
I need to toss this blame I have in my head

All my future years already planned
There was made no room for mistakes
Even if the Devil wants to lead me
Into a deeper state of doubt

Am I the destroyer of my bloodline
Am I the destruction to my own life
Am I the butcher of my future
Am I the downfall of my heritage

This flesh I can't replace, but our soul may reunite
In a parallel world as travellers
Still I sense, this presence visiting me
A piece of me lost in a twirl of misery

While a serpent, still tries to tell me that I failed
Leaving me in a wasteland of desolation
How could I let this life slip through my hands?

All my future years already planned
There was made no room for mistakes
Even if the Devil wants to lead me
Into a deeper state of doubt

Am I the destroyer of my bloodline
Am I the destruction to my own life
Am I the butcher of my future
I am - the downfall of my heritage

I am drifting
Into a deeper state of doubt

I am - The destroyer of my bloodline

The earth has swallowed my pride
There is no need to believe
This God has left me anyway
A wayward soul - At the edge of the world

With a one way ticket - To the bottom deep
With a one way ticket - To the bottom deep
The deep!..Come follow...into the deep...

The earth has swallowed my pride
There is no need to believe
This God has left me anyway
A wayward soul
At the edge of the world

With a one way ticket - To the bottom deep
With a one way ticket - To the bottom deep
A Wayward soul, a wayward soul...

This image of a vulture's head
Casting a shadow resembling death
Waiting, while he listens to your breath
Its beak ready to pick up your flesh

An image of a livid face
Exposed over a stormy sky
I try to reach, but it fades away
Drifting on while I still search

This trauma triggers my thoughts
You are the one that I owe
For the influence of my return
The vague shape of better things to come

At gunpoint I could shimmer
What if life that really matters
All these thoughts I put into form
Will there be light on the other side?

Time still tearing on me
A downward spiral that bleeds

Lost in the barren part of my mind
These tears still bleed within
In silence you speak to me
Please wait for me at the edge of the world

With a one way ticket - To the bottom deep
With a one way ticket - To the bottom deep

In silence you speak to me
You speak to me
Please, wait for me
Please, wait for me
At the edge of the world

This hovering shadow I see
It's touch of death surrounds me
No glimmer of hope in a distant sight
Memories of life
On this vision the feed
Leaving this world

The end is complete
Surely the bottom deep
Visions dark as never seen
Looking down on an empty shell
Bones left for the earth to dissolve
We have reached the end my friend

This is the end
Surely the last descend
Those who enter can never leave
As darkness swallows all light

The end is complete
Surely the bottom deep
Visions dark as never seen
Looking down on an empty shell
Bones left for the earth to dissolve
We have reached the end my friend

We have reached the end
We have reached the end
We have reached the end
This is the end

From the islands to the cities,
From the ports into the sea.
We are strong, we will always be...
Blazing through the wreckage, burning all we see...
The life we lead committed to be free...
Our union is a fortress!
Together we are bound.
A common bound in freedom and in sound!
So raise your voices high!
For miles around to hear.
Let them know we are drawing near...

[2x]
In union we stand as they blaze across the land!
In union we make a final stand.

A peaceful co-existence is dropping out of sight.
So band together, together we will fight.
Blasting the resistance, marching to the top.
They started this, we say when it stops.
Strike fear within their hearts!
Strike down those in your way.
Let them know that we live today!
They throw us into flames,
Did not hear our cries.
But now from the ashes we arise...

In union we stand as they blazed across the land
In union we make our final stand
In union we stand as they blazed across the land
In union we make our final stand

[Solo]

In union we stand as they blazed across the land
In union we make our final stand
In union we stand as they blazed across the land
In union we make our final stand

Our union is our fortress
Together we are bound
A common bound in freedom and in sound
So raise your voices high
For miles around to hear
Let them know we are drawing near

[2x]
In union we stand as they blazed across the land
In union we make our final stand
In union we stand as they blazed across the land
In union we make our final stand
