01. Out Of My Life

Music & lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
Out of my life:
Suffocating
Cornered and back against the wall
Come, rip my heart out, let me die
Witness me chocking on your lies

Throw it on me
The words as cold as cold can be
There's no surrender, no retreat
No turning back - we both will bleed

When you feel like you'll die
When there's nowhere to hide
When it's all just a lie

When you feel like you'll die
When there's nowhere to hide
When it's only a matter of time
You gave up, I was right
It was all just a lie
You don't love me, get out of my life

Called unfading
We were - I had my faith in you
To the moon and back, stood by your side
See, I was there for you all the time

Time to end this
Forever didn't last, it's permanent
Go, paint the blood stains on the wall
Spread your lies and I will burn it all

Saturated with pride

02. Break My Chains

Music by Iivo Kaipainen & Topias Kupiainen
Lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
Walking through the fire
I knew I was weak, I suffered
Wading through the mire
My life felt so bleak and draining

Every word, ever shot aimed to stain me
I died every day, I withered away
No escape, felt like no one could save me
But I will not fall, I will burn it all

Inside of my prison walls
I've wept and I've crawled
I will burn it all
And I won't die here

I won't be falling
I won't be crying over you
I'll carry on, I'll grow stronger
I won't be crawling
I won't be dying over you
I'll overcome all my fears
I'll break my chains
And I won't die here

Faded, but undying
Years flew and my heart grew harder
More than just surviving
I'm vibrant, I'm strong, I'm breathing

Every tear, every wound meant to shape me
I'm not here to fall, I'm not here to fade
No retreat, there's no force that could break me
No surrender and I won't die here

03. Bloodline

Music & lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
Fallen to hell, denied of freedom
We bear a curse, we're meant to crawl and waste away
Drought in our well, nothing to feed on
Waiting to die, watching the countdown to our fate

We are all children of mother earth
Sentenced to die here - we're done, we all must burn

We had one life, we had our pride
We did our time - we were meant to waste away
Killed by cruel crimes, thousands of lives
Drowned in your lies - we were meant to fade away
We're not alone and we fear no more
We raise our banner, we fight for our own
We are your kind, we are your bloodline

We're playing god, we're superstitious
Fear in our hearts we sacrifice our true beliefs
We're stealing lives, we deal perdition
The same old mistakes our kind continues to commit

We are all children of mother earth
Spilling the poison on our fallen world

We had one life, we had our pride
We did our time - we were meant to waste away
Killed by cruel crimes, thousands of lives
Drowned in your lies - we were meant to fade away
We're not alone and we fear no more
We raise our banner, we fight for our own
We are your kind, we are your bloodline

We had one life, we had our pride
We did our time - we were meant to waste away
Killed by cruel crimes, thousands of lives
Drowned in your lies - we were meant to fade away
We're not alone and we fear no more
We raise our banner, we fight for our own
We are your kind, we are your bloodline

04. I'm Here To Save You

Music & lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
There was a time
When life was not so kind
Thought I would die
Turned weak, my heart was blind

Burning alive
In hell of my own mind
Buried alive
I thought I won't survive this

Everything was caving in
You swore that it was never me
I promise you'll never leave
This is how life's meant to be

I'll be with you until the end
And when you need me, I'll be near
I will not fail you
I'd never let you down, I swear
I'd never fail you, I'll be there
I'm here to save you

There was a time
When nightmares haunted me
I had a life
But self-doubts taunted me

Together we're unbreakable
Together we're invincible
Together we're unbreakable
Together we're limitless

05. In The Name Of Love

Music by iivo Kaipainen
Lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
All I want is to be your everything
All I want is to serve you
'cause there is no one else and no one else like you

I would give my life, my everything
I would take a bullet for you
There is no one else and no one else like you

Girl, be mine forever
There is no one like you

Out of our way, out of our lives
Burn our past, fade into the grey
Throw it away, into the flames
I promise you this is a new beginning
Together we'll run away, we won't fall
Together we're strong, we're unbreakable
I would erase, I would destroy or kill anything
In the name of love

We could break away, we could escape
We could run away and hide
Even though all those lies and all those stories were true

I'll protect you from your enemies
I'm your guardian angel
'cause there is no one else and no one else is like you

I'll be yours forever
There is nothing like you

06. A Vulture Dies Alone

Music by Iivo Kaipainen & Topias Kupiainen
Lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
A vulture dies alone:
In silence
In darkness
A stalker hunts his prey

Those wounded
Those weakened
Will fall for his betrayal

Pour gasoline, fuel to the pyre
Come, feed the flames, let the fire be your grave

Welcome to your funeral
You're lucky to go
I'm happy to know
You'll reap all that you sow
Bow down to your destiny
With weathering wings
With shattering bones
A vulture dies alone

Your shadow
An eclipse
The scavenger is near

No savior
Compassion
For such a hypocrite

Pour gasoline, fuel to the fire
Come, feed the flames, let the pyre be your grave

07. I Love To Be Your Enemy

Music by Topias Kupiainen & Iivo Kaipainen
Lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
So fake, lacking in morality
A cold snake slithering through cavities
Spare me form your serie of profanities
A hypocrite shit accusing me of blasphemy

Your preach feeding your own vanity
With your speech tearing down my sanity
Go on and on - you can't see the irony
For god's sake shut up, I have you everything

Calm before the storm
Prepare to lose all that you're fighting for
Down with hypocrisy
I love to be your enemy
The battle rages on
I'm here to take what's mine, I'm in control
Down with hypocrisy
I love to be your enemy

I'll write you a story of your treachery
I'll wipe out everything, all those memories
You think you're catching fire with your theories
But the truth is you've got lost in your reveries

So fake, lacking in morality
With your speech tearing down my sanity
Go on and on - you can't see the irony
For god's sake shut up, I have you everything

08. Where The Ocean Greets The Sky

Music by Topias Kupiainen
[instrumental]

09. I Don't Fear You

Music & lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
I had no doubt
When I was dying to this pain
I wanted out
But I knew I'd push through anything

You broke me down
Starring my nightmares far too long
You slowed me down
But now it's over

Won't forget what you did
You'll see that I'm invincible

I don't fear you
I came here to confront my enemies
I will break you
Won't give in, I'll tear down your reveries
I don't fear you
I am stronger than you could ever be
I will break you
Wont give in, I'll tear down your reveries
I will never yield

Eye for an eye
Into the war, I'm not afraid
There's no reprise
But an ending for this tragedy

Kill or be killed
The rules of survival taught me this
I will prevail
And you'll be falling

Won't forget, won't forgive the day
You threw me to the wolves

10. Until Eternity Ends

Music & lyrics by Iivo Kaipainen
I'm alone in endless darkness
Where our shadow fades into the grey

In my heart a fading fire
Where our memory dies, burning away

But I won't bleed forever
One day I'll be over you

When did we fall
When did everything waste away
Now we fade into the fire
I'll go on
And while tomorrow shines
I'll always belong to you
Until eternity ends, until I fade away

Barren ground and desolation
Where flowers die and life comes to an end

Pledges made - we vowed 'forever'
But every river flows into the sea

And I will find my way home
As soon as forever is through
