01. Children Of The Flames

Once more I'll be trying
To explain the whole scenery
Once more I'll be dying
By the rules of my destiny

Treated like rats in the gutter
And caught in a camp full of hate
The justice of life did not matter
The medical growth was our fate

See the fear in our faces
Hear the pain in our cries

I am a saint I am
I ain't no sin again
I am a saint I am
In the name of science
Children of the flames

We're born under signs of a wrong star
And forced on a trail straight to hell
We're punished by laws of injustice
It's more than a lifetime could tell

Smell the filth in our cages
We are the victims of a lie

They called us the children of fire
We're killed by the angel of death
The devil in black was a liar
And the chambers of gas my last breath

See the fear in our faces
Hear the pain in our cries

I am a saint I am
I ain't no sin again
I am a saint I am
In the name of science
Children of the flames

Once more I've been trying
To explain the whole scenery
Once more I was dying
By the rules of my destiny

02. Trial By Fire

The dogs are on the hunt
They're searching for the guilty man
The mob is on the run
Go fighting for your rights

They hide and seek and change direction
Same story as the night before
The gallows see a mass attraction
A judgment in the devil's court

Don't say you're innocent
We call you a liar
You soiled the promised land
The time to die

There is no second chance
A trial by fire
Feel the almighty hand
Light up the sky

His troops are on the hunt
To punish all the unbeliever
The world is under guns
Protect your civil rights

They try to kill and rape the poor men
Nobody got a reason why
The holy smell of witches burning
A judgment in the devil's court

Don't say you're innocent
We call you a liar
You soiled the promised land
The time to die

There is no second chance
A trial by fire
Feel the almighty hand
Light up the sky

03. Warchild

I cannot leave it all behind
I have to find the reason why
But no one's here to give an answer

Same old story in a different place
Another mass without a face
Call them axis of the evil

Warchild
You missed the sun
You failed to run along the last mile
How can we ease your pain?
Warchild
The air you breathe
The help you need was on the wrong side
There ain't no sheltered way

What they've done in '68
Has returned in different ways
The alliance of the willing

Did we lose ourselves in time?
Did we learn from past day crimes?
Is this really what we're looking for?

Warchild
You missed the sun
You failed to run along the last mile
How can we ease your pain?
Warchild
The air you breathe
The help you need was on the wrong side
There ain't no sheltered way

This is the place to clean the poisoned ground
We need some time to leave the past

Can you leave it all behind?
Do you learn from past day crimes?
Is there time to give an answer?

What they've done in '68
Has returned in different ways
The alliance of the willing

Warchild
You missed the sun
You failed to run along the last mile
How can we ease your pain?
Warchild
The air you breathe
The help you need was on the wrong side
There ain't no sheltered way

04. Astral Hand

Running on a book of secret pages
Never thought to be a foolish child again
Heading for the little pride of ages
Hide and fight and cries out words of pain

Don't you know what he was looking for?
I wonder why they praise the rules of war

I am a finger of the astral hand
Your prayers let my harvest grow
I got your spirit, astral man
To reign the land of ice and snow

Brothers coming home
Riding horses
Sisters sweep along and fight the tales of whore
Hold a little while
Get some silver
Take me by the hand with rust and gold

Don't you know what he was searching for?
I wonder why they praise the rules of war

I am a finger of the astral hand
Your prayers let my harvest grow
I got your spirit, astral man
To reign the land of ice and snow

Don't you know what he was looking for?
I wonder why they praise the rules of war

I am a finger of the astral hand
Your prayers let my harvest grow
I got your spirit, astral man
To reign the land of ice and snow

05. The Oswald File (Ethnolution II - A Matter Of Unnecessary Doubt)

I wonder why it's still undone
I wonder why my life went wrong, so wrong
They said I always missed the light
They should not let me out of sight
But in the end nobody cares

Around the world I was the man
Around a world of silence
I praised the law, did what I can

Too many questions, too many lies
Too many fakes, too many cries
They said I chose that way to go
They said I'd never failed my role
And in the end somebody cares

Around the world I was the man
Around a world of silence
I praised the law, did what I can

Welcome, my desperate son
Are you still on the run?
Welcome, my lonely one
Did you reach the sun?

On judgment day I'll see the shining star
The world so grey, my mind so dreadfully dark
Reached the street and chose my place
Took my arms and played my game
The aim so near, the world so cold - where did I go?

Welcome, my desperate son
Are you still on the run?
Welcome, my lonely one
Did you reach the sun?

On judgment day it all has changed
A hail of bullets flying
Your sweat is cold and caused by pain

The celebrations reached the peak
You feel your head is aching
The smell of blood is on the street
Pretend your will's been breaking

Surrender is your fate that comes
Surrender and no way to run

When bullets hit the sacrosanct
An evil curse is heaven-sent
A curtain on the dead man's face
Is hiding what they put to graves

Depression thrills the sacred land
When war and pain was heaven-sent
A curtain on the dead man's face
Is hiding what they put to graves

And if your bullets fail their aim
You'll find another seeker
A different reason affects the same
Your intentions were much weaker

Surrender is your fate that comes
Surrender and no way to run

When bullets hit the sacrosanct
An evil curse is heaven-sent
A curtain on the dead man's face
Is hiding what they put to graves

Depression thrills the sacred land
When war and pain was heaven-sent
A curtain on the dead man's face
Is hiding what they put to graves

I wonder why it's still undone
I wonder why my life went wrong
Around the world I was the man
Around a world of silence
I praised the law, did what I can

On judgment day I saw a shining star
The world so grey, my mind so dreadfully dark
I put my finger on a prayer's page
Woke up and slightly lost my inner rage
Left the street and chose my way
Took no arms and played no game
The sky so near the world so light
Where was my fright?

06. Waiting For The Sun

My head explodes if I don't try to walk on sacred fire
My dreams have told me where the ways to go and find the signs in my mind

I do everything that I know
Light the flame to an uncertain glow
I miss everyone in the sun
For a bigger one

My eyes can see a growing industry around the planet
My ears have heard what they will do to earth before I die
What a lie

I tried everything that I could
Trust the future as long as I should
I missed everyone in the sun
For a bigger one

Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for the sun

I do everything that I know
Light the flame to an uncertain glow
As it burns on the bigger one

Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for the sun

07. The Glance Of Fame

A strong wind's going down the western shore
A high tide's floating
Gets around the world

He could see the rivers flowing
He could hear the feathered cry
And all his thoughts were still ongoing
It's worth to have a try

Lived his dreams about the stratosphere
Cold and clear
This kind of magic

Still earthbound in heaven
The world gets insane
His name is constantly shining
In the glance of his fame

Thirteen days and few hours
He could manage it, dreams came true
Launched his fight, could never fall
A last view to hometown

Mighty clouds with rain and blizzard
No more green fields on the ground
Recognized the mighty wizard
He never gives a second round

Lived his dreams about the stratosphere
Cold and clear
This kind of magic

Still earthbound in heaven
The worlds gets insane
His name is constantly shining
In the glance of his fame

Still earthbound
A sky session
It's the world in his flame
This light is constantly shining
The glance of his name

Lived his dreams about the stratosphere
Cold and clear
Failed to reach the empty space beyond the earth
The world of magic

Still earthbound in heaven
The world gets insane
His name is constantly shining
In the glance of his fame
