Wasting feeling breeding inside me
A shadow of something crawling behind me And I´m pretending there´s nothing in there But hearing those whispers makes me to believe Here - I lay in my bed tasting bitter sweet Smell - In my breathe reminding smell of death Dreams - In my head slowly fade away The end -Is nearby me and I want it to be The king - Inside my head seducing me to betray You - The only one making myself me The loss - In my life great it will be The game - Is taking me and the prize is defeat Defeat Inevitable, my destiny Best friend I´ve ever met Hands stretching up to reach the sky Grobing for a lifehold a place to stay Fingers are slipping and I´m falling down Into the world I know the world of sadness Room - In my heart empty as a well Still - Waiting for the victory to take In vain - I´ve lost this game before I´ve even born Defeat - My destiny all I ever get 02. Bitter Metallic Side
And life goes on with harmony
Day after day those same routines And lifetime filled with happiness The most greatest joy So great is the sea so small your boat But you don´t know if you don´t row And so great is the sky above your blue eyes But you can´t see behind the lies In the smallest crack of your life´s track Is a chance for me to attack Now the time is right for you to say Your last goodbyes Face yourself, your own dreams I am your real demon hidden in your mind I´ll show you my own world, I´ll take you down to the Bitter metallic side You´re lying next to me and you´re too good to me And I think you know I can´t let you go Bitter Bitter Bitter Bitter But don´t throw away your last coin I have to do this all my own I only want you to know I´m buried deep down in your soul So great is the sea so small your boat But you don´t know if you don´t row And so great is the sky above your blue eyes But you can´t see behind the lies 03. Time Takes Us All
In every revolution there is a man with a vision
He agitates and incites to follow his vocation He speaks the golden words turns us against the system Into the stand we rise him and make a low bow Time takes us all - makes me wonder that who´ll need his call Time takes us all - makes me wonder that who´ll need his words We all have to hail the man behind the pain We all have to hail the man behind the pain Soon he will take all the control becomes a mindless dictator And we just can´t believe he was the One Under the protection of his faithful indoctination He dominates and rules and distorts the truth Time takes us all - makes me wonder that who´ll need his call Time takes us all - makes me wonder that who´ll need his words We all have to hail the man behind the pain We all have to hail the man behind the pain We all have to hail the man behind the pain 04. To The Gallows
Waken by the scream of a buzzard
Sending cold shivers down his back Now across the barren desert gallops a horse The only thing alive maintaining hope Soon the steps will slow and horse ends up dead The rider´s hope now gone too tired to resist The bonfires behind his back The chasers wait for their last attack The long arm of law has reached him This time he cannot fight back Now walking in procession hands around his back Surrounded by the people who only want him dead In his eyes the look reminds he´s not ready to tap Yesterday a hero now a victim of combat In Judge´s eyes the look - you´re mine To the gallows Says the voice through the white hood To the rope Shouts the crowd around the dark hill Now climbing the stairs with distress Cannot feel hunger or fear of death Defiance in his face he is standing In front of the law he resisted 06. The Black Waltz
And she walks her way so treatled
Leads away from the bless she´s earned Gone away the meaning Before the day against the morning Down the path of the blind souls she walks Through the dreams of mystery Tryin´ to reach the touch of human Finds the way to the secret lands Calling is guiding Dazzling her instincts Calling is guiding Dazzling her instincts Hymn of temptation keeps calling Makes her to believe the dream She wants to lay to rest And to take away her veil Soon will feel the touch of the Taker And will see the eyes of the Caller Can´t resist the feeling Hand in hand they will fall into sleep Dancing with me Forever the black waltz Dancing with me Forever the black waltz Dancing with me Forever the black waltz Dancing with me Forever the black waltz 07. With Terminal Intensity
A child was born into this world
With great emotion he was loved The evil seed slept in his body Spreading its roots before the glory The hell was risen when he was twelve The squeeze of the trigger was a move he did well So he killed his parents killed his friends With black spirit he filled himself Soon he was taken in custody But the inner seed was so well-rooted He needed more the evil doer With terminal intensity operation was made His ties were broken and the doors opened With terminal intensity and hardened heart Now walking among us a voice in his head He has an agenda a secret mission Taking orders from higher levels Fighting a battle for you and me So we can live in our world of dreams Tottering on the edge of the grave Facing violence every day Causes the new set of priorities Kills with a pleasure every day And the hindbrain behind will be safe From the extra people to play his game Wrapping himself up in mystery With terminal intensity the plan was made But there is no control in evils way With terminal intensity all hell´s breaking loose No-one can control how evil moves Unestrained anger deep inside Turns himself against the person of high But will be killed in the name of law And the voice in his head will be gone 08. Man Of The King
Life - Black and white
Without the red in my eyes Smile - toothless grin Before the king is inside me I want to believe to the power higher than we know But the scene is getting darker in everything I own So I will dive into dreamworld and clear everything And the things getting brighter 'cause I am the man of the King Life -Black and white Without the red in my eyes Smile - toothless grin Before the king is inside me You might say I´m nothing cause I get nothing done But do not deny me I have the strength within The people around you also follow the dream Take a look I am not the only one of the King Hey, now I´m saved From the world today I´ve found my way To get away End - it is nothing Cause I have sworn my oath Like the others I believe to the powered dream I don´t give a damn because I am the man of the King The hell with the rest I am the man of the King Right, Yeah, I am the man of the King Simply the man of the King 09. The Groan Of Wind
The groan of wind a hiding deadly disease
A killer that hides in the wind And cannot be seen A powerful enemy a threat that truly exists By a hair hung our lives We see that but we´re blind Ever-transforming, reproductive, worldwide pandemic Our time is running out The clock is striking on And in spite of our drugs We´ll stay powerless The groan of wind A silent killing machine There´s no place we can breathe Deep down in our lungs symptom breeds H5N1 Lethal time bomb Maybe we have earned our urns We cannot endlessly breed Our scientific achievements Nature simply will beat The groan of wind a hiding deadly disease The groan of wind a hiding deadly disease The groan of wind A silent killing machine There´s no place we can breathe Deep down in our lungs symptom breeds 10. Mindrust
In the eyes of the Watcher
The gleam of flames Reflecting pictures Of the years gone by Time makes no difference The sleep won´t come And tomorrows daylight is hiding around This lonely mind, eyes still awake Taking a swig now and then Poking the fire with the rod Seeking the truth behind the blaze Where lost all the glory days? Vanity just remains in his own wishing well Has learned to fear the fire of life Has burned his hands so many times In the shelter of smoke he is feeling home The lesson of life we all have to die Ashes only stays under our names If believed Kingdom come before all is gone Is the chance to reborn who´ll need the fire? Mindrust - watching the embers Time passes his eyes in flow Grand failure, betrayal, denial The pain to swallow Tarred waiting to burn The glow stays until it fades Dying weeping and slow Before the rain comes falling So the fire does not forever burn And before the rain he has to learn The lesson of life we all have to die Ashes only stays under our names If believed Kingdom come before all is gone Is the chance to reborn who´ll need the fire? Gives him protection from the outside world Mindrust - watching the embers Time passes his eyes in flow Grand failure, betrayal, denial The pain to swallow Tarred waiting to burn The glow stays until it fades Dying weeping and slow Before the rain comes falling 11. One From The Stands
A condemned man in a prison cell charged with a crime he has done
He draws a picture on the wall A symbol of victory He clothed peoples thoughts in words declared peace and liberty The iron fist clenching his throat Depriving humanity A political prisoner a propagandistic weapon Of the proletarian dictature against the other world After he has been released Got his name on the paper A part of a macabre tradition Released as a gift And we´re all staring at the news Nodding our heads in approval We think that the the world is better now Although he is already dead A condemned man in a prison cell charged with a crime he has done He draw a picture on the wall a symbol of victory He clothed peoples thoughts in words declared peace and liberty The iron fist clenching his throat Depriving humanity We don´t give a damn He is not one of us just one from the stands And afterwards we have cleared ourselves Justice has done Justice has done Justice has done We don´t give a damn He is not one of us just one from the stands And afterwards we have cleared ourselves Justice has done Soon another one will come declares peace and liberty Speaks the words want to be heard words of alteration But he will be arrested he will be condemned But never mind there are more in the stands We don´t give a damn He is not one of us just one from the stands And afterwards we have cleared ourselves Justice has done We don´t give a damn He is not one of us just one from the stands And afterwards we have cleared ourselves Justice has done |
