I fought the forces that will bring me down
they crawl without a sound
They wake me up at night, kill the lights, make it right
No time for slumber I'm getting dumber every sigh,
-everytime I'm standing tall, everytime I rise and fall

I think w'ere closer now, I'm getting nearer
I can see it touching ground, it's getting clearer
can't you see I'm way behind, I'm so sincere
I believe you'll never find.

wee out the sun, under the gun
kneel down for the ricochet
my future tells no lies to a creature with o rights
as for the plans I have in mind I have nothing left to find
please show a sign, who's next in line?

I think we're closer now, I'm getting nearer
I can see it touching ground, it's getting clearer
can't you see I'm all denied faithfucked believer
I claim you'll never find a better fear

[Chorus]

take a look, take a ride, stay by my side
don't dare to think-let's FOLLOW THE HOLLOW
it kills your pride to be alive
please step a side, cause I FOLLOW THE HOLLOW!

we head for hell and we do it well, come eat the dust
cause it's all a dirty lie that chokes the sky

I think we're closer now, I'm getting nearer
I can see it touching ground, it's getting clearer
can't you see I'm way behind, I'm so sincere
I believe you'll never find a better fear

[Chorus]

take a look, take a ride, stay by my side
don't dare to think-let's FOLLOW THE HOLLOW
it kills your pride to be alive
please step a side, cause I FOLLOW THE HOLLOW! [Repeat]

[Lead Frenning]

As we speak...
-the stable table turns
As we speak...
-I should have known we're burned
And I guess I'll never never learn which of those faces
who makes it all turn
As we speak...
-I'm going deeper down
As we speak...
-With a terrible sound
a feeble holy bastard son
has it only just begun?

[Chorus]

I turn away.....fading out alone
Was a lifetime worth it all?
...fading out...fading out alone
Ass we speak we turn to stone

As we speak...
A young man looses his mind
As we speak...
He kills what's next in line...
A broken down mother ask herself why
-Is this the end of her precious time?
As we speak...
-a conscience leaves without a trace
a silent departure to a silent place
what do we know about the anger that starts to grow

Don't despair, time will heal your torment
Don't you dare, spend your days in hell
So beware, faith will bring you treason
While you stare... Oh!

[1st Lead Frenning, 2nd Lead Wichers]

I turn away....fading out alone
Was a lifetime worth it all?
...fading out...fading out alone
As we speak we turn to stone [Repeat]
As a lifetime turns to stone...
				

Don't look for compassion as long as you
Keep turning away
It's all that matters to me
When I try to puzzle your pain
You struggle against yourself by living in the dust
Can't you realize there's no one here who you can't trust
May the gods have mercy on your bastard brain
Hold on one more second my fatal one

[Chorus]

Feeding angels with despair
flameout's reigning everywhere
And you need it so, you just can't let it go away

I try hard to pull the strings of your life, adopting my
soul to figure out what's right
Deep down I know you can make it shine
-Save yourself and do not decline
An acute manner for an acute self-destructive kind
It is structured before your eyes
you're so inferior and vile!
A creator of demonized stress and steals the crown from
the evil ones living in his mess

The remnants of his youth lies public
just if someone cares...
-Swallow the bitter pill and justify!

[Chorus]

Feeding angels with despair
flameout's reigning everywhere
And you need it so, you just can't let it go away

So here I stand all alone
where is the face that I used to know
can't believe you never found out why?
why keep on hurting you're self

[Lead Frenning]

You struggle against yourself by living in the dust
Can't you realize there's no one here who you can't trust
May the gods have mercy on your bastard brain
Hold on one more second my fatal one

[Chorus]

Feeding angels with despair
flameout's reigning everywhere
And you need it so, you just can't let it go away
[Repeat]
				

Don't you ever try to solve a problem in distress
The infected smile upon your face
looks so godly in this mess
Shut down- all your dreams
Confess- you're released
You know- what I mean
can't stop this strangulation alone

[Chorus]

wait for chaos, wait for the welfare at this point of no return
bleed for money, bleed for justice, going straight to hell
with a wounded soul
Reaching out for a solid soul
of compassion and excitement

-Do I dare to trust my faith right now
as it fools my mind somehow...
Reborn - once again
Erase - and repent
You know what I mean!

Saved, building up a fate on your own
Now, your saved, never seem to care while they're
watching you
Pay, pay for your sins on your own
Pay, lie to yourself while you're getting low

[Chorus]

wait for chaos, wait for welfare at this point of no return
bleed for money, bleed for justice, going straight to hell
with a wounded soul
Don't you ever try to satisfy your needs with a deeper
thought if you do or if you please, if you do or please
Shut down- all your dreams
Confess- you're relieved
You lie- to yourself
Your pride goes before a fall...

Saved, building up a fate on your own
Now, youre saved, never seem to care while they're
watching you
Pay, pay for your sins on your own
Pay, lie to yourself while you're getting low

[1st Lead Wichers]
[2nd Lead Frenning]

[Chorus]

wait for chaos, wait for welfare at this point of no return
bleed for money, bleed for justice, going straight to hell
with a wounded soul [Repeat]
				

Now the Bombshell babies see the world
with brand new eyes
The day they were born they couldn't get it right
Leaving scars and agony
Gathered in a fatal colony
We've seen 'em fall
One for all, bitter and bright
Nailed to the wall
Closing in as the terror's going blind
Ruthless and devastating as our time just passes by
We've lost our patience and our belief
Dismantled and broken as the sirens shriek
What can we do, what can we say
Our veins are filled with pure dismay

[Chorus]

Staring through the windows
Waiting for all sins to be born
Playing on a mindfield, searching like never before

Now that our state of mind has left us broken and divine
We never meant to hurt ourselves
-Signed, sealed completely blind
There's a lack of foundation
A horrible scream of our nation cause...
We've seen 'em fall
One for all, bitter and bright
Nailed to the wall
What can we do, what can we say
Our veins are filled with pure dismay

[Chorus]

Staring through the windows
Waiting for all sins to be born
Playing on a mindfield, searching like never before

[1st Lead Frenning]
[2nd Lead Wichers]

Staring through the windows
Waiting for all sins to be born
Playing on a mindfield, searching like never before
				

Hey soilmates, we're facing the end
We're down low no use to pretend
A bitter message from heaven sent
it says we're asleep at the wheel again
Let's say we're stuck in an illusion
Let's say we're out of control
Possessed by a lethal redeemer
Forcing us to play a neurotic role
Oh, won't you take this thing out of me
It never leaves me alone
Fight the demons and devastate
This mental battlezone

[Chorus]

Bring it back, bring it home
Enough is enough, I'm alone
Everything's set all ready to go away
Bring it back, bring it home
To the place I used to know
There comes a time
when this nighmare will turn to hate

Beware what you intend to say
Those words will always make you pay
Repress what's before your eyes
Gather the spirits and hypnotize
Let's say we're stuck in an illusion
Let's say we're out of control
Possessed by a lethal redeemer
Forcing us to play a neurotic role
Oh, won't you take this thing out of me
It never leaves me alone
Fight the demons and devastate
This mental battlezone
I wait for this to overcome
What's inside it needs to be done
this vital plague has brought my pain
and endless pain...

[Chorus]

Bring it back, bring it home
Enough is enough, I'm alone
Everything's set all ready to go away
Bring it back, bring it home
To the place I used to know
There comes a time
when this nighmare will turn to hate

[1st Lead Wichers]
[2nd Lead Frenning]

[Chorus]

Bring it back, bring it home
Enough is enough, I'm alone
Everything's set all ready to go away
Bring it back, bring it home
To the place I used to know
There comes a time
when this nighmare will turn to hate

Oh, won't you take this thing out of me
It never leaves me alone
Fight the demons and devastate
This mental battlezone
I wait for this to overcome
What's inside it needs to be done
this vital plague has brought my pain
and endless pain...
				

Black star whenever you're ready

By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross

Meanwhile time takes a turn
-I'm feeling damned when you make it burn
Let's testify you're born to die

Don't try to nail!!

By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross

[Chorus]

Black star deceiver kills it all
THe sun lies waiting for a call

By now your soul seem steady now crawl to the cross

Breakdown of a shadow unknown
Tomorrow belongs to no one
As I repent the things I've done
There is a freeway heading for sorrow
Breakdown cause you've had enough
You've never felt so strong
Steal away, steal away let it all astray
It's been so long!
When there comes a time
With a feast on what used to be mine
Sent from the front to the back
All in numbers and fellish black [Repeat]

[Chorus]

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow

Is this the statement that I feel?
-Accused to be an unbeliever

Hit the lights and won't you please resign
Way down and right on time

Is this the statement that I feel?
Acccused to be an unbeliever

Won't you shut all the doors in mind
The ones you cannot find
There is no way that I can see
Why you keep on... haunting me!

[Chorus]

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow [Repeat]
				

Bring punishment to get hold of me
So cold like a glance from my eyes
Accept the way it's meant to be
A mental sacrifice
Go down hear the sound of a gentle man
Leading you straight to the void
Where the neon bastards they make
Dropouts out of leftover toys

[Chorus]

No more angels, no more painful lies
No more strangers, no more waste of time

So here I am going straight to the plan
Never knowing that I'm damned
Walking the thread that's so precious to me
A secret part of my history
My time- to short as nothing beckons to me
My time- goddamn what is it I try to be
Fill the hole a thousand feet below
Become the master of a freak show

So!! Cold!!
Right! Now! [Repeat]

[Chorus]

No more angels, no more painful lies
No more strangers, no more waste of time

Bring punishment to get hold of me
So cold like a glance from my eyes
Accept the way it's meant to be
A mental sacrifice
Go down- the keeper of your thoughts may be
Go down- a sacred child who just can't see
Counting the days. so amazed
Of this sweet and miserable effort

So!! Cold!!
Right! Now! [Repeat]

[1st Lead Frenning]
[2nd Lead IA]

So!! Cold!!
Right! Now! [Repeat]

[Chorus]

No more angels, no more painful lies
No more strangers, no more waste of time
				

Postironic we lugh dream in sonic
Diamond overload
Drenched in fear by struck of lightning
Cause we're only listening with one ear now
This organism rips us apart, it feasts on us

[Chorus]

Song of the damned, never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand

This machine creates
what in some people's mouth is called art
Too hard to comprehend
Too hard but will not bend, we will not bend

So why are we trusting those cynical souls
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching-bleeding
with hearts open wide all so cold
Live for the moment get killed for the thrill
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching bleeding for nothing
for we've seen it all

Fast and furious we're riding with serpent speed
Through the essence, through the greed
Forcing ourselves to overcome this mystery
This restless degradation
temptation and our endless lust
Will bring us down - will bring us deeper down!

So why are we trusting those cynical souls
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching-bleeding with hearts
open wide all so cold
Live for the moment get killed for the thrill
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching bleeding for nothing
for we've seen it all

[Lead Wichers]

Postironic we laugh dream in sonic
Diamond overload
Drenched in fear by struck of lightning
Cause we're only listening with one ear now
This organism rips us apart, it feasts on us

Song of the damned, never ends, so stop pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
Song of the damned, never ends, so stop pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
Song of the damned, never ends, so stop pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
[Repeat]
