Ace Of Hearts - Monster lyrics



Tracks



01. Eternal Life

Through these eyes we've see the world go by
And with them we will see the future
Time laid its cards, we survived the tide
Emerging intact from the darkness

Forgotten dreams

If we bleed than there's no pain, no no
If we cut ourselves there's no sensation

Eternal life
We're condemned to live
As the undead
In eternal sorrow

We walk amongst the living
We pass unnoticed in the crowd
It's the curse of Cain we've been given
It's the curse of the sinners

02. Monster

Vulnerable, opened your eyes you don't know where you are
Under this light you seem so frail and kind, enough to join me

And the terror takes over
As you realise
The nightmare is real
The fear in your eyes feeds my hunger

No I can see myself
No turning back
No I won't fall
No I won't rest until I'm through
No I can't help myself
I fell this rage
This time I know
Who's the monster

Blood drops, as cold metal rips right throuh your skin
As in vain you reach for something that isn't there
Don't be afraid my dear

Cold hearted, blooded and minded evil
A cult that's followed by the undivine creatures
The beast that featured in a thousand fears
And nightmares so grotesque they can only be real

03. Blood Stained Love

I hear your thoughts
And I read your mind
Stained of blood red wine

One more step and your pulse start rushing
Time stands still as I get closer
Let me in my darling, my love

Blood stained love - a raw emotion
Blood stained love - with a strong devotion
Other's love's a drop, ours and ocean

You seem so shocked to see me
Do I look that pale in the moonlight?

Don't let go of my hang my baby
Don't let if fade away, let our hearts beat as one

04. Elixir Or Poison

Oh lord, just give me something, maybe a poison I don't care
Give me something to relieve me of this pain
Oh lord, just give me something, maybe a poison I don't care
Give me something to release me from this hell

I ride the wind so fast as sunbeams sparkle through my flesh
You made me immortal though this might be my last stand
This pain I feel is so unreal, I haven't felt it in a thousand years
My life flashes before my eyes, do you remember I'm your child?

You gave me life and took my will to live away
And animated this marionette, you are pulling my strings

Give me a cure, my god, elixir or poison
To wash my sins away
Give me a cure, my god, elixir or poison
Relieve me of this pain
Father either kill me or make me human again

Air burns my lungs
Fire peels my skin and leaves me dying
The taste of sulphur is like the taste of pain and of defeat
And as I crawl on my knees the only thing that comes to me is
Yes I'm monster, but you're the one that made me evil

If you gave me one more chance
I'd absolve of all
I'm like a ghost, living in between worlds
I've forsaken you but I'm still your son

Far beyond death, heaven and hell
The angels fell from grace
Far beyond love, suffering and pain
Blow this candle flame away
Don't let love fade away

05. From Leaves To Hearts

A new season starts today
Spring took the cold winter away
Streams flow as the clouds cease to cry

Snow breaks under the tree
Weeds peak through the ice to see the sun
Gently kissing the earth

I dream when flowers blossom
Dew drops drip through leaves
Like the lovers touch on the smoothest skin

I wake when the moonlight comes
The stars shine, the sunlight bids farewell
When the night falls
And the wind sings us melodies
Will the sun rise?

Black birds singing my name
They want me come out and play
When life flows from the skies into the ground

I wake when the moonlight comes
The stars shine, the sunlight bids farewell
When the night falls
And the wind sings us melodies
Will the sun rise?
Will the fields grow green again?
Will they turn to gold?
Will the new season bring us change?

06. Teardrops

Blue lines on paper and teardrops on the floor
An open window isolated with curtains waiving

I gave you a taste of eve's apple and I thought that you'd been blessed
Humanity was our garden and we cropped flowers at will
Just when love has healed your wounds
Something woke in you
No passion lasts forever
There's things I can't undo

And in the most selfish way
You decided to leave me
Like daggers cut through heavens
A rain of endless diamonds like teardrops
You cry with eyes sewn shut
These teardrops
We've wasted our best years in this war

Red lines of madness and teardrops on the floor
These words are just filled with madness, no love anymore

You and I, we're orphans of this world
Everyone we loved and everyone we cared about is gone
We've shared this moment when we were just mortal men
Everything I did, I did it for you

I thought living forever was enough...
You rest in darkness...

07. So Many Words

Secretly, I whisper a message I've kept in me
I'm giving myself without asking why
And If I fall, I'll give it another try

Just walk in while it's open
Cause you're walking on the line, afraid to fall

Baby so many words were left unspoken
My heart was broken into
Until you're back

Both our names are carved on the bark of this leafless tree
Just another game we play of make believe
I know you paid for my mistakes with your heart

So many words

08. Happiness Is Only Real When Shared

How does it feel my baby?
How does it feel inside?

Because to them you meant nothing, the final sacrifice

Three days since you left home
All looking up, all feeling right now
Four days are not enough, when the way is clear
The city is your playground

Five days, the morning after
Your wake up call, you've lost control
Six days and your strength is running out, got no will to carry one

Somethings are only real when shared
Somethings are only real when missed
You kept holding on this feel
That aint truthful but you still believe it

Too proud to go back
You're pretending you're ok
You don't have many choices left this time
So cold, and nothing to warm you up
Close, and you're ready to give up
Its time you got a ride back home

09. The Revenge

Where am I?
I want to know
What does the dark conceal?
A funeral with no one to see me here?

My hands keep holding onto these binding chains
A god that's stripped of all his power and his grace

And you'll be cursing the moment you came after me

Reload reload your gun
You shoot me, I shoot you back
Reload reload your gun
You shot me and I'm alive again

I open my eyes once again
Blood drops fall right down my hair
The taste of blood could lead me to a frenzy
Nowhere to run and hide
Got plenty of time for you
I am immortal, the undead and you're the fool

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Soon your blood will pump in my veins

Did the sheep turn into a wolf
You were the hunter and now the hunted
You've got my full attention

Unload all your bullets on me
