Dawn Of Oblivion - Ikaros lyrics



Tracks



01. Father

Touched by the hand of eternal life
Watching from the skies above
I know I will survive
Leaving in peace, dreams of a better world
All along the suffered path
The magic's in our eyes

Dreams of a twilight soul
Caressing me and takes me all the way
To inner peace
At dark I lay me down to rest
I know it's you, please guide me all the way
Cause it's my father's time

Living a life without you by my side
I tried so hard to be the one
That always will survive
Think of the days when I was a boy again
Remember how I missed you so
I tried to forget your name

02. Atomic Stigmata

I can't believe, I can't believe
I can't believe that love conquers everything
Why can't you see?
Why can't you see the mould from within?
We killed the Gods, we killed the Gods
We killed the Gods above
We called the bluff and raped the icons

When everything is just the same
At the dawn of a new age
We find the key of a new invention
We took the heaven in our hands
White coats and manipulated genes
An atomic stigmata, the clone of Jesus Christ

I climbed the walls, I climbed the walls
I climbed the walls today
I didn't like the view
It's in the earth, it's in the seas
It's in the air we breathe
Indifference
We called the Beast, we called the Beast
We called the Beast below
To create new lies and make new icons

When every minute lasts an hour
And every hour lasts a day
We find the gate to a new dimension
And everything is just the same
At the dawn of a new age
We find the key of a new invention
When every minute lasts an hour
And every hour lasts a day
We find the gate to a new dimension
We took the heaven in our hands
White coats and manipulated genes
An atomic stigmata, the clone of Jesus Christ

03. Ikaros

Search for a better day
Search for some action
I know the joy, the satisfaction
Yes I know it's too, it's too damn cold
And everybody wants to see how it looks up above
Don't get too close to me
Too close to me

It was fun to be so high
Just like you I tried to fly

You see, I am no hunter
I am just patient
I know to feel the excitement
Escaping from, from the prison earth
Escaping from your anger
They helped to give you wings
But not to be a survivor
To be a survivor

But I'm far too close to the sun

I know I'm flying far too high
Know my golden wings will melt

Ikaros, look I'll come to you
Ikaros, look what they brought me to

04. Devastate

Cold on the wall across the floor
No light, no door, no kingdom come
A scent of decay to moulder away
No reason to live reverberates

My naked flesh soaked in pain
With lidless eyes to count the frames
Seven gates and countless games
I've come to see the lies
Of the God they taught me to love
Whenever I'll be free from these pictures to devastate

The serpent, my clandestine

With my split tongue and reptile eyes
Watch God's creation and eternal lies
Our free will and our killing spree
Fall from dismay to see world dominion at our feet
Human nature seeks
We will never be relieved from these pictures of devastate

The serpent, my clandestine
My split tongue and reptile eyes
Watch God's creation and eternal lies
Our free will and our killing spree
Fall from dismay to seek world dominion at our feet
