01. Expectation

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
Whatever you feel
There's no turning back
Whatever you feel
The end is near
We're here with you

Whatever you see
The darkness all around you
Whatever you see
Nothing but pain
We're here with you

Please welcome
Crematory

02. Salvation

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
No one will do me any favor
I walk alone in the line
Hopelessly I search for a savior
Slowly I start to lose my mind

I stumble in the wrong direction
In paradise there is no space
I see my own last reflection
I see me lying in a deep, old grave

Salvation
I'm the fallen angel
Crying in the darkness
Hope is out of sight
Salvation

Salvation
You're my guardian angel
Dying in the darkness
Be my leading light
Be my leading light

Salvation
Salvation

I lay my soul down in your hand
There is a final price to pay
I'm just about to make my last stand
Get on my knees and pray

I follow the false savior
The keeper of the past
Trusted a wrong behavior
But he will lead you to the last

Salvation
I'm the fallen angel
Crying in the darkness
Hope is out of sight
Salvation

Salvation
You're my guardian angel
Dying in the darkness
Be my leading light
Be my leading light

Salvation
Salvation

Under the moon I will die
Nobody by my side
A dark and lonely life
Nobody sees my unforgettable fight

I stumble in the wrong direction
In paradise there is no space
I see my own last reflection
I see me lying in a deep, old grave

Salvation
I'm the fallen angel
Crying in the darkness
Hope is out of sight
Salvation

Salvation
You're my guardian angel
Dying in the darkness
Be my leading light
Be my leading light

Salvation
I'm the fallen angel
Crying in the darkness
Hope is out of sight
(Salvation)

Salvation
You're my guardian angel
Dying in the darkness
Be my leading light
Be my leading light

03. Ghost of the Past

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
The wraith of the past
Is taking away my pain
The demons of my history
Leaving marks in my thoughts

Years of fear and anger
Are marching through the land
The soul of the dead
The peace of the nameless
Determination of revenge

Voices whisper my name

Ghost of the past
The magic of the moment
Ghost of the past
The spirit of the wind
Ghost of the past
The story disappears
Ghost of the past
The demons call for me

The legacy of the wise men
Was written and was preached
Carved in stone with the blood
And tears of the slaves

The hostages of time
Will learn from their faults
The victim of life
The guilty will hide
The children of tomorrow

Voices whisper my name

Ghost of the past
The magic of the moment
Ghost of the past
The spirit of the wind
Ghost of the past
The story disappears
Ghost of the past
The demons call for me

The justice calls
For her shady creature
The ruthlessness
Shows her false face
The dying of the world
Will never be the strain
The last human trace
Cleans the last rain
Last rain

Ghost of the past
The magic of the moment
Ghost of the past
The spirit of the wind
Ghost of the past
The story disappears
Ghost of the past
The demons call for me

04. Until the Dawn

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
Rain is falling
The wind spreads the wetness
The day sacrifices
Itself for the night

Bodies fall silent
Come to rest
Fall asleep
Dreams manifest

Don't you see
The light inside of you?
Phantasies and wishes
Awake until the dawn
Don't you feel
The light around you
Don't you feel it?
Don't you?

Opened wide
To endless heights
You are my leading light
Until the dawn
Flying high
The end inside
Together we will shine
Until the dawn

Minutes become hours
Endless agony
But at some point
Even that is over

Outside again
Freedom is calling
Light falls silent
Rain is falling

Don't you see
The light inside of you?
Phantasies and wishes
Awake until the dawn
Don't you feel
The light around you?
Don't you feel it?
Don't you?

Opened wide
To endless heights
You are my leading light
Until the dawn
Flying high
The end inside
Together we will shine
Until the dawn

Until the dawn
Until the dawn

Don't you see
The light inside of you?
Phantasies and wishes
Awake until the dawn
Don't you feel
The light around you?
Don't you feel it?
Don't you?

Opened wide
To endless heights
You are my leading light
Until the dawn
Flying high
The end inside
Together we will shine
Until the dawn

Opened wide
To endless heights
You are my leading light
Until the dawn
Flying high
The end inside
Together we will shine
Until the dawn

05. Revenge Is Mine

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
You think you know me?
You think you guide my way?
You think you have
Nothing more to say?

You think you have seen
All things in your life?
You believe there's nothing
Nothing left to strife

You cannot escape the fate
You cannot
Escape the revenge

Revenge is mine
The battle is over
Revenge of fate
The warfare is gone
Revenge is mine
The endless fight is over
Revenge from faith
The end of all life

You think I swim
To the end of the shore?
You think you don't have
To fight anymore?

You think I tell you
The end of your case?
You think I do not
Recognize your true face?

You cannot escape the fate
You cannot
Escape the revenge

Revenge is mine
The battle is over
Revenge of fate
The warfare is gone
Revenge is mine
The endless fight is over
Revenge from faith
The end of all life

You think you know me?
You think you guide my way?
You think you have
Nothing more to say?

Revenge is mine
The battle is over
Revenge of fate
The warfare is gone
Revenge is mine
The endless fight is over
Revenge from faith
The end of all life

Revenge is mine
(Revenge is mine)
Revenge of fate
(Revenge of fate)
Revenge is mine
(Revenge is mine)
Revenge from faith
The end of all life

06. Wrong Side

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
Carefully look around
Kill to survive, never look back
Last chance, last notion
The beautiful memories

Fear goes around
No one will help, nobody is saved
Exposed as an easy victim
Escape for the last resort

Wrong side, wrong place
The last fight has begun
Wrong game, wrong face
The final battle is done
Wrong way, wrong mind
Responsibility of mankind
Wrong turn, wrong time
This is the end of the line

Hide to plan, kill to survive
Never come back
Instability is all around us
The rage of violence

The degree of blindness
Hung and burnt
The last important decision
Is now dead and unknown

Wrong side, wrong place
The last fight has begun
Wrong game, wrong face
The final battle is done
Wrong way, wrong mind
Responsibility of mankind
Wrong turn, wrong time
This is the end of the line

The end of the line
The end of the line
The end of the line
The end of the line

There are many darkness to combat
There are many secrets to research

Wrong side, wrong place
The last fight has begun
Wrong game, wrong face
The final battle is done
Wrong way, wrong mind
Responsibility of mankind
Wrong turn, wrong time
This is the end of the line
The end of the line

07. Stay With Me

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
I'm lost, you're free
We've lived and died together
My hurt, your rise
'Cause we are blessed forever
In you I lived
And we grew old together
Your blade, my pain
I know it's you forever

Pain is the key to the heart of the lost
For the kiss of the cold steel rail
Stick in the knife and break off the blade
There was a way back to the start

Stay with me, my love
Waiting for the coup de grace
The pain is not real
Stay with me, my love
Pain is the key
To the heart of the lost
Stay with me
Stay with me, my love
Stay with me

Your will, my hope
We kept the world together
Our love, our strength
We had reached the stars forever
My wound, your flame
Come let us bleed together
I'm broken, you're sane
But we are joined forever

Pain is the key to the heart of the lost
For the kiss of the cold steel rail
Stick in the knife and break off the blade
There was a way back to the start

Stay with me, my love
Waiting for the coup de grace
The pain is not real
Stay with me, my love
Pain is the key
To the heart of the lost
Stay with me
Stay with me, my love
Stay with me

Stay with me

Pain is the key to the heart of the lost
Pain is the key to the, my love

Stay with me, my love
Waiting for the coup de grace
The pain is not real
Stay with me, my love
Pain is the key
To the heart of the lost
Stay with me
Stay with me, my love
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

08. For All Of Us

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
Everything was quiet and done
Peace was an unspoken word
Friendship sealed for a lifetime
And the sense for emotions gone

Another coming fire
Another broken love
Another new beginning
Another broken hope

For all burning passions
Impressions come and go
For all of us
For all common feelings
Never forget the lonely souls
For all of us
For all stories of life
The hunt for fame and glory
For all of us
For all fallen heroes
One false smile
One false word

Getting lost along the way
The darkness hunts the emptiness
The legacy of the following
There is nothing that makes us stay

Another coming fire
Another broken love
Another new beginning
Another broken hope

For all burning passions
Impressions come and go
For all of us
For all common feelings
Never forget the lonely souls
For all of us
For all stories of life
The hunt for fame and glory
For all of us
For all fallen heroes
One false smile
One false word

A heartbeat away from the target
The endless search for the greatest

Broken hope
Broken hope

A heartbeat away from the target
The endless search for the greatest hope

For all burning passions
Impressions come and go
For all of us
For all common feelings
Never forget the lonely souls
For all of us
For all stories of life
The hunt for fame and glory
For all of us
For all fallen heroes
One false smile
One false word

For all of us
For all of us

09. Immortal

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
Whatever you say
The hot red blood runs through my veins
Whatever you do
The search for all these empty years
What can I do?
The pain will never stop hurting
What should I do?
The suffering will be my burden

Immortal love, immortal life
How much I keep searching
Immortal flame, immortal time
How often I keep calling

I am immortal, oh

Whatever you know
My dreams become a desperate desire
Wherever you are
Your eyes are following my way
What you're looking for
Your voice is drilling into my ears
What you'll ever find
So deep in my heart, so deep in my mind

Immortal love, immortal life
How much I keep searching
Immortal flame, immortal time
How often I keep calling

I am immortal
I am forever
I am immortal
I am forever
Immortal
Immortal

Immortal love, immortal life
How much I keep searching
Immortal flame, immortal time
How often I keep calling

Immortal
Immortal

Immortal love, immortal life
How much I keep searching
Immortal flame, immortal time
How often I keep calling

I am immortal, oh

Immortal

10. Oblivion

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
The world has fallen
No place for winners
No air to inhale
No movement to react

Cold ruins watching
Over once-proud buildings
The call of the battle fades away
The black smoke has vanished

No power to manifest
No nation left to dominate
No more sanctuary
Everything in blood and ashes

It's time for a war
A war inside my head
It's time for memories
Oblivion, oblivion

It's time for forgiveness
The hope for salvation
It's time for a new beginning
Oblivion, oblivion

The world of today reborn
No place for deceivers
A rebirth without man
Without any beast

What was once constructed
By common sense
Dust and decay carried by the wind
The last embers suffocate

No power to manifest
No nation left to dominate
No more sanctuary
Everything in blood and ashes

It's time for a war
A war inside my head
It's time for memories
Oblivion, oblivion

It's time for forgiveness
The hope for salvation
It's time for a new beginning
Oblivion, oblivion

It's time for a war
Inside my head
It's time for forgiveness
And salvation

No power to manifest
No nation left to dominate
No more sanctuary
Everything in blood and ashes

It's time for a war
A war inside my head
It's time for memories
Oblivion, oblivion

It's time for forgiveness
The hope for salvation
It's time for a new beginning
Oblivion, oblivion

11. Cemetary Stillness

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
The carnal caress of fading hands
Fingers that are vanishing
Absorbed into the void
Lingering for a second just to fade

A touch of the ghost
Cold or sweetly well-known
A wish for things to pass
From this realm of suffering
And the Earth is left alone
To fend for a life of stillness
Slowly into its form
The calm before the final storm

The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free
The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free

The concentrated past deeds
The salt and sweat of years
All set to be released
As the flesh slowly decays

A touch of the ghost
Cold or sweetly well-known
A wish for things to pass
From this realm that we are suffering
And the Earth is left alone
To fend for a life of stillness
Slowly into its form
The calm before the final storm

The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free
The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free

The soul flies free
In a cemetery breeze
The soul flies free
In a cemetery breeze
The soul flies free
In a cemetery breeze
The soul flies free
In a cemetery breeze

The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free
The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free

The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
(The soul flies free)
The cemetery stillness
As life runs away and the soul flies free
The cemetery stillness
Like a gloomy lonely breeze
(The soul flies free)
The cemetery stillness
When life ends, the soul flies free

12. Blessed

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
The light of the past will always find you
It will disappear forever
You always thought that everything was right
But in the end there is only dark cold night

No friend, no enemy
My deliverance will come
No heaven, no hell
My redemption is done

Blessed by fire, blessed by God
Hope is all that we've got
Blessed by evil, blessed by death
Take away all my breath

The shadow of time tells chapters of life
It will find peace forever
They always knew it was a holy pain
But in the end only blood and tears remain

No friend, no enemy
My deliverance will come
No heaven, no hell
My redemption is done

Blessed by fire, blessed by God
Hope is all that we've got
Blessed by evil, blessed by death
Take away all my breath

Blessed by fire
Blessed by fire
Blessed by God
Blessed by God
Blessed by evil
Blessed by evil
Take away all my breath

Blessed by fire, blessed by God
Hope is all that we've got
Blessed by evil, blessed by death
Take away all my breath

Blessed by fire
Blessed by fire
Blessed by God
Blessed by God
Blessed by evil
Blessed by evil
Take away all my breath

13. Demon Inside

Music & lyrics by Markus Jüllich
All right
The demon inside
The demon inside
When everyone died

What is good?
What is evil?
What is real?
What is fiction?
Looks that kill
All knowing thoughts
The unknown deep within

A demon in my view
Look at me, look at you
A demon in my way
It's a never-ending day
A demon in my thoughts
Listen to me, listen to me
A demon inside of me
Your soul is never free
The demon in me

The demon inside
The demon inside
When everyone died

What is life?
What is death?
Where is wisdom?
Where is knowledge?
Thoughts that thrill
Words meaning nothing
Blood is polluted

A demon in my view
Look at me, look at you
A demon in my way
It's a never-ending day
A demon in my thoughts
Listen to me, listen to me
A demon inside of me
Your soul is never free
The demon in me

Do you believe in God?
Do you believe in hope?
Do you believe in me?
Do you believe in hope?

Do you believe in God?
Do you believe in me?
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in hope?

A demon in my view
Look at me, look at you
A demon in my way
It's a never-ending day
A demon in my thoughts
Listen to me, listen to me
A demon inside of me
Your soul is never free
The demon in me
