Blind horde
04:42
|
|||
I've grown like a beast from my blood, tears and sweat
I am your fear, I am a threat
You already know, that I’m not alone
I’ve become a blind beast in your horrible tale
the paths of your darkness behind a blood veil
You already know, that I’m not alone
And if you hide all the torches and break all the lights
still we’re able to fight
We will gather and form what you tend to ignore
and forget to look for
We are the blind horde
we don’t give a fuck how your fortress will fall
The time has come
It’s all in or nothing at all
The light it will come with the song of the blind
I’m raising the flag of the horde in the skies
I Can’t hide the truth, it has no disguise
And if you hide all the torches and break all the lights
still we’re able to fight
We will gather and form what you tend to ignore
and forget to look for
We are the blind horde
we don’t give a fuck how your fortress will fall
The time has come
It’s all in or nothing at all

Words upon words
05:13
|

Dream for a while
Dream in a limbo
A dream that goes on
Till it gets me to shiver
But I don’t want to wake up
I ain’t giving it up
That is when, I feel true
When I’m dreaming with you
One day for you brings one day for me
A turn we can take
That they don’t want to see
A turn that is marked by the trails of our dead
Trails of a worker, a lover, a slave
Rays of the sun bring to light all my fears
Words upon words and the haze becomes real
And it gets me to shiver, but I ain’t waking up
Till the end of our dreams
Till the dreams become one
Till we all dream as one
In a world we can share
That’s a dream I would fight for
To wake up in that world
Now that’s something I’d die for
Now you know how I feel
Now you know that’s not real
That’s my way to break through
Now I’m counting on you
But I don’t want to wake up
I ain’t giving it up

False dawn
04:13
|
|||
Always in search to find the easy way to live
Some friends, a car, a chick, ambitions to achieve
Reflections of my life, the neighbors that I have
They look like me I think as I describe myself
Let's find a meaning that is worth
A quote on our gravestone
Let's find something that is god damn worth breathing
Nothing to lead us forth
A need to fight for
And if it’s gonna be a false dawn lord I need it
Lord I need it
Never a gambler but I need a better card
Never a winner cause I haven’t bet my heart
Let's find a meaning that is worth
A quote on our gravestone
Let's find something that is god damn worth breathing
Nothing to lead us forth
A need to fight for
And if it’s gonna be a false dawn lord I need it
I need it
Compromise turns out a lie
What was common can't be right
Compromise turns out a lie
What was common can't be right
can't be right

The witch
06:12
|
|||
The stars have shaped your goodnight words
The moon outlines my thoughts with notes
The breeze is dancing on your clothes
This perfume takes away my woes
I lost it all when I was young
I loved the dark side of my heart
I can’t believe what I've become
Blessed by the moon cursed by the sun
The milky way is calling
The wings of night are falling
The witch I love is coming
Spells last till the morning
I wonder if the moonlight knows
where she is hiding, where she goes
The milky way is calling
The wings of night are falling
The witch I love is coming
Spells last till the morning
I'm shaking till dusk
That is the spell she casts
How many nights it lasts
Blessed by the moon cursed by the sun
Marking the universe for fun
Taught by the moon her mother tongue
Dark is our universe of fun

Hangover
05:04
|

What the fuck is going on where did I sleep again
Those are not the clothes I wore and this is not my bed
Don’t wanna know what happened yesterday
And where I've lost my keys
My wallet isn’t there
Upright I just can’t stand, too numb to use my hand
Yeah I think my mojo left me
and now it works against me
I knew it when I felt it
and now I can't prevent it
Tell me where I am, please point your finger on this map
The boss is calling, yes I know, ok I've lost my job
This fucker never paid me in time
I’m throwing up I'm sorry girl for that
Nail my foot down to the ground, I’m falling off my back
Yeah I think my mojo left me
And now it works against me
I knew it when I felt it
And now I can't prevent it
Back, forth
I always bet to stand my ground
I’m always falling down
Back, forth
They drink a shot, I drink a flood
Why do I need to count
Back, forth
The floor, the bar, my chair, the crowd
Keep turning upside down

Wasted nights
06:05
|
|||
A sip for wasted nights
Cheers to what seems right
All leading to a lie
Pour me another drink
To wash the smell of sin
That lies under my skin
All those nights
All those nights alone
Hollow glasses form a line
The more Ι drink the more I’m thirsty
This grief is always by my side
There is no way to heal what cursed me
"The bar is empty, mate"
And I know it’s toο late
“Last call for drinks”, he says
I’m gonna spend that dime
My mind salutes with pride
The heart that says goodbye
Thoughts are dreams we share
But I've never dared
And she was always there
Life was never fair

The burden still remains
04:35
|
|||
There is no comfy place for me to rest my soul
Changing my life I thought would be an easy role
But I will find my way beyond the world’s control
No matter what it takes now, I’ll give it all
What else?
I gave all that I’ve found
What else?
What else?
Down on my knees I’ve bowed
What else?
Nobody feels my anger
Nobody dares
Where will I find the answer
Nobody cares
A dreamer sets the game, nobody wants to play
A rebel shows the way, nobody wants to sail
The burden still remains
I'll find my way I'm open
Among my foes
Maybe the truth is spoken
Nobody knows
A dreamer sets the game, nobody wants to play
A rebel shows the way, nobody wants to sail
A dreamer sets the game
No one knows

My grave
04:38
|
|||
As you guess, life is a mess
You wear that beautiful dress
But it won’t last forever
Day to day struggle and pay
You have to buy your stay
That doesn’t last forever
Though you did it all right, life doesn’t last forever
It doesn’t last forever
But I will dig my grave as slowly as I can.
And while I dig my grave, you’ll never see me dead
Life is a hard endeavor
Thought you did it all right, It doesn’t last forever
darling won’t last forever
Thought you did it all right
Life doesn’t last forever
