He lured them in by lying
And made them greedy To begin with I am sad To begin with I am must as mad as you Almost... You see there's a difference between us That won't go away 'til you're dead My pretty dancer tell me Are you alone inside your make-up And the mask you're wearing Slowly tearing you apart Sing, do a final show for me You're heavy at heart as can be I know you're sad about it Quick be on your way To the sound of the army boots You fall asleep so quietly Maybe you will live another day Soon they will find you and make you pay Predators will hunt their prey Send me on my way just to bleed Cut you open for the cause to feed Tell me a tale, the one about that girl Who can dance away time Move her feet like rain His words are all the same lies His words are greedy Sing, do a final show for me There's a tear in your eye I can see That I'm not talking while you're singing Quick be on your way Disappear in the dark Be a black shadow in the park, fade away And try to live throughout the day Soon they will find you and make you pay You will follow They will lead with minds of flesh And blood and greed Cut you open like a sack of seed Tell me a tale The one about that girl Who can dance away time Move her feet like rain Predators will hunt their prey Send me on my way just to bleed Cut you open for the cause to feed Tell me a tale, the one about that girl Who can dance away time Move her feet like rain Cause I'm a soldier and you're a dancer So I let you over Sold!!! 02. Taint The Sky
A Northern corner
The stage is set and each must play his part Accusing children: "I have seen her fly!" -- the life-depriving lies I'm sorry you must believe me But we have seen you heal in evil ways Deceiver! Witches will burn Even if she dies for a crime unknown Taint the sky, ashes falling And even if your heart is saying No Your mind is so twisted Can you really let her go? Soon the heavens will burn A stronger magic To allow this jest reason is subdued Accused and lying Oh sure she will cry Confession tears they are I'm sorry, my life is over And we will make the demons go away Forever! Witches will burn Even if she dies for a crime unknown Taint the sky, ashes falling And even if your heart is saying No Your mind is so twisted Can you really let her go? Soon the heavens will burn A kingdom is burning And will I ever know just why? I see them burning on I see It burns in me They're burning us all Witches will burn Even if she died for a crime unknown Tainted sky, shame is calling And even if your heart is saying No You can make a difference Can I really? Yes, I know Soon the sky in the fire will burn 03. Waiting In The Wings
So here I am, I'm a man
And that little boy tied down Deep within me You have broken your word! I'm sorry that I bowed once again And let the monsters loose You can't understand it Your can't understand what it's like The world which we live in Feel I'm tearing up inside I'm loosing my mind One look and the clown In the mirror says Hi -- I'm still here waiting And tine is no longer on your side A part of him dies Another one lives in the mirror And his legacy reigns But I won't follow you In the shadows I cry Closer to heaven I fail I still remember the words That the little boy I once was, were told Son, order rises from fear Oh, how I swore I'd fight what he was And I'd never be like him I was such a fool An ignorant fool to believe A man can control How he's living out his life Or change anything One look and the clown In the mirror says Hi -- I'm still here waiting And time is no longer on you side A part of him dies Another one lives in the mirror And his legacy reigns But I won't follow you In the shadows I cry Closer to heaven I fail So here I am, I'm a man in a cynical world filled With compromises A tyrant signs in the mirror I know now I've been weak and afraid and turned The other cheek He knows I can't stand it. He knows I can't stand That I am A pawn in his puzzle And still waiting in the wings, the ghost of my past One look and the clown in the mirror says Hi -- I'm still here waiting And time is no longer on your side A part of him dies Another one lives in the mirror And his legacy reigns, but I won't follow him In the shadows I cry, alone So close to heaven [CHORUS] And his legacy reigns But I won't follow you In the shadows I cry Closer to heaven I fail 04. Banish The Wicked
When the morning arrives
The whispering wind reveals The intentions of the night So don't you tease the power Watching over us The childless and sad mother cries Oh please, be careful So children stop your foolish games Ad smile towards the light And don't you dare cry So many friends have died And we all know it's too many How can we possibly break this curse? I don't know She will probably punish me For even thinking about Leaving the village And the people know They got no place to go When the goddess dance Across the heavens She's so bright Like an arch of light They couldn't dream Of denying her will tonight The righteous will stand And the wicked are banished From her land When the evening arrives They stand before the queen May her judgment Free or fail the lawless The widow cries a silent tear The scar of a justified fear of loosing Cause someone's watching over them Impaling every move With raging northern light So many friends have died And we all know it's too many How can we possibly break this curse? I don't know She will probably punish me For even thinking about Leaving the village And the people know To turn the lights down low [Chorus:] One light, one spell One dance for all the breathless So scared, inside -- spare me, goddess! When she's dancing all across the heavens She's so bright like An arch of light They couldn't dream Of denying her will tonight When she's dancing All across the heavens She so bright...so bright They couldn't dream Of denying her will tonight And the righteous will stand As she'll banish the wicked From her land 05. Not An Angel
Even when alone I'm not lonely
Even when you're hot I am cold as ice Another day another lie And there is nobody to catch me When I'm falling Wake up my dear and smell the salt Don't hide your fear it's not your fault And from the day I saw your face I've been lying Soon she will die In the enemy bed she's sleeping Innocent victim of this dark charade But my secret remains in the shade Yeah I want you to know I'm not an angel This evening I can longer hide I'm not just a man And I want you to know I'm not your angel Darling run -- why can't you see? So run...away from me Under the moon My heart is turning black Under my disguise Another night. Another dies And if you find a place to hide I'll Kick the walls in What you don't know Will not hurt you But here is the blow That is not true And you will never know what hit you Until the end I will love you And love is blind. Now that is true Cause you will never know what hit you I've been lying Soon she will die In the enemy bed she's sleeping Innocent victim of this dark charade But my secret remains in the shade Yeah I want you to know I'm not an angel This evening I can longer hide I'm not just a man And I want you to know I'm not your angel Darling run -- why can't you see? So run... away from me Tonight there is evil On the ground Tonight there is evil Hold on tighter When you believe There is no one to blame I've got to prove you wrong Yeah Yeah I want you to know I'm not an angel This evening I can longer hide I'm not just a man And I want you to know I'm not your angel Darling run -- why can't you see? So run... away from me 06. Devil's Inc.
[Falling Down]
I will tell you how I failed To be a good man If you follow the flame You end up in the dark Coming up in a dream Sitting up in the night With a cold panic attack and a scream Although it's hot I'm feeling very cold inside Although I am alive I can not feel a thing I wanna now why I Really had to follow the tall man To his office down underground Call me dead heart walking [In The Office] Hey...no way! You don't have to be down Don't you wanna make it better? Sign right here! Said the Devil to the boy And suck in the flavour, suck in the flavour A favour is what I'm offering to you Sign the document and take the Favour. The one I'm offering to you And suck in the flavour, suck in the flavour Soul chasers on the move Waiting for the kill My future plan I was sending it right down To never land The one who felt the fiend's hand Will understand That my ship will sink It was written in devil's ink [The Insight] I'm sorry I turned my back on you Don't know what to do And why did I turn? God how it burns I'm covered in deep blue tonight I'm sorry that I've turned My back on you I hope you do Forgive me tonight To live in this world Is no longer my right The cool morning breeze Is no longer my right to feel This face is yours to blame For the bad I've done So pass me down because I sold my soul [The Crime] To take a life worth living did not help at all The money I came over they did not catch my fall [Chorus] [Remorse] Now I know that I shed my tears All those years In vain will I die Coming up in a dream Sitting up in the night With a cold panic attach and a scream Although it's hot I'm feeling very cold inside And when I fall asleep I have no happy dreams I'm not man I'm a puppet in a cage Drinking darkness, eating sorrow With a knife and a trident [The Lie] I met with the man with the magic eyes He took me home just like a son And made me believe in a paradise The other one without a sun [Chorus] [The Fate Of A Murderer] He never could and he never will I will never show up in "Pleasantville" He's gonna wake up where the time stand still Just to find myself Living in "the deadville" (the devil) Soon his job beneath is to Be a star of the show the devil hosts And to never come back from his world That would be the fear I fear the most 07. Walking Tall
It's only a matter of time
Before you loose it And I once believed in fire And tear me up! Something burns inside of me You mark my words, the game is up And why did you have to show That it's just a grand illusion? Why did you ever let me go? I'm asking you Cause I'm walking tall Marching down this shattered road I've learned Pain means alive And I'm slowly breaking through Without you So come clench your fist Round my heart and leave me bleeding It's already ripped to pieces Blackened on the ground You game me scars that never heal Oh why did you hurt me so You pathetic little person Just one more thing before you go I'm telling you [Chorus] 08. The Edge Of My Blade
He came from the mountains up north
And the memory remains Like blood on my sleeve That won't go away A man from the mountains up north He ripped of a smile From this little boys face When you went away A little spark grew And the art of hating you Hold me father Embrace me with your ever smile Sole survivor And shine upon me like a star Fear me pagan As I am coming to end your list The son of a murdered father lives inside of me So bow for me pagan And in heaven I write your name And may the colour remind me of life once again As it pours from the edge of my blade A feeling still fresh in my memory When you closed his eyes You took out my light as well Turned heaven to hell I swore on my family name I swore I would find him and treat him the same But I get no peace My heart can not rest Until my work here is done So hear me father Once again I am talking to you No need to bother I must do what I'm destined to do [Chorus] I've killed you in so many ways Since the day I saw you in the haze I've been trying to sleep But it's hard to do When the ravens are In my head Why, father? Why didn't my pain go away I am back And I'll sleep With my conscience tonight I traveled far away from home I traveled over waters Just to send him right where he belong The black ravens showed me the way 09. Pieces
Wonders... they happen every day
For sure, the fact is overwhelming me In every land there are witnesses to tell a story Fate decides what the future hides I've read my own prewritten lines And so time goes by and that is why I know tomorrow will never come You are watching the world While she's falling to pieces But still you smile And every time your babies cry You hold them tight So tell me Who is the fool when the curtains fall? And the future is gone Miracles It helps you to see the world with different eyes Suddenly you come to realize that time flies And you have been a fool So take your final breath Feeling lonely with only yourself to blame But fill your head with happy lies Say a prayer Under the tainted skies Watching the world While she's falling to pieces But still you smile And every time your babies cry, you hold them tight So tell me, who is the fool when the curtains fall? And the future is gone You are watching the world While she's falling to pieces But still you smile And every time your babies cry, you hold them tight Tell me how do you sleep at night? Tell me how do you sleep at night? Tell me how do you sleep at night? |
