I cannot take all the broken promises you've made
But now I'll never hear your lies
For the last time a dream you've taken cannot be denied
The pain I felt was just a moment in time

...And I know all these things will never change
Serenity's mine

The darkness gone, before my eyes I see the burning light
The fire burns inside
I will not fall, to all the words you've spoken I defy
Don''t have to see the greed in your eyes

...And I know all these things will never change
And you don't feel bad

''For all these things I've kept inside
For all these things that I've denied
You'll never get my soul
For all the times you told a lie
To get your way just like a child
You will not be my demise...''

A cruel misfortune...
A cruel misfortune...
A cruel misfortune...
A cruel misfortune...

Through the mist I call
Like a shadow I descend
With raven wings I devour
Caressing the night in bitter moonlight

I call to thee, the eternal...

Lost in sweet oblivion
Can't find your way home
Wait for your deliverance
A place to rest your soul

Taste my cold deceit
Burn in my flames eternal
I cover you in my misery
Forlorn you'll never see the light

I call to thee, the eternal...

Lost in sweet oblivion
Restless is your soul
Lord of your demise
In this limbo you'll eternally roam

Forever you will roam

In this suffering I revel in your torment
In this suffering you'll learn to let your self go...

I call to thee, the eternal...

You told me that you'd never walk away
Leave me to face my fears
Your actions contradict the words you say
You lose me on the edge of a word

You take a piece of me you keep on bringing me down
But your all I've ever known
You make a mess of me you keep on bringing me down
Falling from your cradle of grace

I can't believe you let me fall today
Leave me to face myself
Your eyes they tell me what you try to say
Another love has died

You take a piece of me you keep on bringing me down
But your all I've ever known
You make a mess of me you keep on bringing me down
Falling from your cradle of grace

Falling from your cradle again...

You take a piece of me you keep on bringing me down
But your all I've ever known
You make a mess of me you keep on bringing me down
Falling from your cradle of grace

I see it in your eyes
Falling from your cradle again
I taste it in your tears
Falling from your cradle again

Enter the depths of your anguished dreams
I await you, the silent, the divine
Set my mind adrift with a glance
Endless is the isolation... I await you

Shadows dance in endless sympathy
To the light of treacherous souls
Feel the ravens as they tear your flesh
In this sombre light, awaken, arise...

Awaken, arise...
Awaken, arise...

Endless is this pain
Silent are your lonely cries
No one sees your silent glance
Lost in emptiness

Emptiness...

Renounce your flesh with awakened desire
See the reflection of your withered soul
I await you in this endless trance
In this sombre light, awaken, arise...

Awaken, arise...
Awaken, arise...

Endless is this pain
Silent are your lonely cries
No one sees your silent glance
Lost in emptiness, silent is your pain

Enter the depths of your anguished dreams
I await you, the silent, the divine
Set my mind adrift with a glance
Endless is the isolation... I await you

Endless is this pain
Silent are your lonely cries
Waiting for eternity
Endless is this isolation

I lay upon your golden wings, silent and divine
I fall before your gaze never quite the same
Black serenity, I'll never let you go
Of all the times I lay dying you're there to hear my call

I dream of sanity a time to let it go
In our silent slumber the embrace shall never end
Black serenity, your arms around my neck
In a shadow a silhouette together we are all

''Before me I see the beauty of angels
As her hair cascades down her face
I hear her voice, here in this sanctuary
In these arms, a river to drown...''

Black serenity, hear her call to me
Black serenity, before the dawn we sleep

Before the light of dawn
I will be reborn
To taste the night and know
Its everlasting ecstasy

When the seven fires burn
Your beauty I adorn
In a crimson sacrifice
My blood upon the thorns

For all the souls that burn
On bloodied knees I crawl
Veiled in a shadow
I transcend this shame

Falling on cold hands
Falling on the words that bind me

I'm lost in emptiness
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in emptiness
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in emptiness
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in emptiness
I'm lost in...

And to the ones with empathy for the fallen few
I can't conceive a life believing the lies that you do

Instrumental

Mind control is out of control
Total control has lost control

I woke up drenched from head to toe in sweat
I dreamed of war while safely in my bed
Two thousand miles away the fires rage
Horror in my mind I turn the page

My thoughts at dawn as the red sun rose
The blood that spilled in the redness shows

Who did the sun shine on for one last time?

How many have fallen while I soundly slept?
Breathed their last words as their children wept?

Who did the sun shine on for one last time?

Deceptive propaganda games poison till it's done
Receptive like an open wound yielded to the sun

Remembrance scars

And still you don't see
The demise, the suffering
Death drawing us near
Our doom fueled by your fear

I see the devil in the eyes of god
Feel his flesh against your burning skin
Wallow in your pity, filth and sin
Can't you see that all hope is lost

We exist in a godless world
Mankind consumes itself
We're tearing at our own flesh
Commemorate the misery

I see the devil in the eyes of god
Feel his flesh against your burning skin
Wallow in your pity, filth and sin
Can't you see that all hope is lost

''And still you don't see the demise, the suffering
Death drawing us near our doom fueled by your fear
We exist in a godless world mankind consumes itself
We're tearing at our own flesh commemorate the misery...''
