SHATTERED
TALK TO ME FOR THIS TIME
HEAR WHAT I FEEL INSIDE
PART OF ME HAS DIED
STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE
HIDING, FIGHTING, IGNORING TO FALL
SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING TO MOVE ME ON AND ON
LIFE HAS NO MEANING FOR THE ONES WHOSE FATES ARE BROKEN
YOU FEEL LIKE EVERYONE EXCEPT
YOU BECOME WEAKER AND WEAKER
RIGHT BEFORE YOU COUNT TO FIVE YOUR LIFE IS OVER
KEEP SEARCHING FOR THE LIGHT
THE SYSTEM WHAT I CAN SEE
IT SEEMS IT´S JUST NOT FOR ME
NEED TO FIND SOME PLACE TO GO
BEFORE MY HEAD WOULD BLOW
MORE THINGS YOU REALIZE
MORE YOU HAVE TO COMPROMISE
MAYBE I LOST MY WAY
SO THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO SAY
COME WITH ME THROUGH THESE SHADOWS
FOLLOW ME AND HEAR MY SORROWS
WELCOME TO THIS PLACE
THERE AIN´T NO HEROES
THANKS TO THAT MESS WHAT MADE US
BELIEVERS

INTO THE VOID
I DON´T WANT TO TURN MYSELF INTO
A COMATOSE MAN WHO´S WILLING TO
SACRIFICE ALL WHAT HE LIVED FOR
THINGS WORTH LIVING HE´LL FEEL NO MORE
STUCK SOMEWHERE, HEADING TO NOWHERE
IS THAT REALY THE WAY I SHOULD GO?
BLIND EYES KEEP ON STARRING
SEE THE THINGS THAT CAN´T BE TOUCHED BY HAND
TIRED MIND FEELS NOTHING
PUSHES ME TO THE DEAD END
I WANT TO AVOID THE MOMENT
WHEN MY WAY WILL DIVIDE
INTO THE STEPS OF CHANGING
WHERE MY LIFE MAY COLLIDE
WALKING ON THE THIN LINE
WITH NO PROTECTION AGAINST FALL
LIKE DROWNING IN THE RIVER
NO ONE ANSWERS YOUR CALL
WITHOUT FEAR OF REJECTION
YOU CAN PREVENT REACTION
THAT WOULD TAKE YOU DOWN
TO SEE IT ALL...
JUST RIGHT HERE I AM
I´M READY TO BEAR IT ALL
THIS CAN´T BE THE END...
DAYS ARE PASSING BY AND I FEEL LIKE I´M STILL FALLING
DIVING INTO THE VOID FROM WHERE I CAN´T SEE THE END
MY MIND IS PARALYZED, KEEPS SEARCHING AND SEARCHING
THINGS I DON´T UNDERSTAND...
BLINDED BY THE FLASHES OF WHITE LIGHT
WHICH HURTS AND MAKE ME SO UPTIGHT
I FEEL TOO WEAK TO WIN THIS FIGHT
JUST HELP ME RISE BUT NOT FALL
DAYS ARE PASSING BY AND I FEEL LIKE I´M STILL FALLING
DIVING INTO THE VOID FROM WHERE I CAN´T SEE THE END
MY MIND IS PARALYZED, KEEPS SEARCHING AND SEARCHING
THINGS I DON´T UNDERSTAND...
BLINDED BY THE FLASHES OF WHITE LIGHT
WHICH HURTS AND MAKE ME SO UPTIGHT
I FEEL TOO WEAK TO WIN THIS FIGHT
I STILL DON´T KNOW WHAT´S WRONG, WHAT´S RIGHT

Angels Of Death

ANGELS OF DEATH
Marching on through day and night
with deadly guns ready to the fight
all for one, Angels of death
spreading terror on the Earth
Attacking to fulfill their task
hidden behind black woolen mask
torturing for their God
never doubt that right is on their side
Driven by inner violence
with no chance to survive
causing the doom for all nations
You saw all those innocent eyes
as they beg for their lives
thanks to your blind yearning for
vengeance
so don´t you just realize
cost of this sacrifice
nothing but murdering
for what...
too blind to see the light
dark blackened their mind
pushing to fight
ingnoring self-destruct and pain
healed by the suffering they made for their God
mindlessly and in cold blood
they kill without exeption
Driven by inner violence
with no chance to survive
causing the doom for all nations
You saw all those innocent eyes
as they beg for their lives
thanks to your blind yearning for
vengeance
so don´t you just realize
cost of this sacrifice
nothing but murdering for what...
There is no true reason for this kind of deep despair
Unjustified treason each time you have to bear
War can´t give a life, it can only take it away
It cuts like a knive soon there will be no one to save

INNOCENCE
THE YOUTH AND LOVE ALWAYS SHOWS
THE RIGHT SIDE OF THINGS
THAT WE JUST WANNA SEE
WE´RE FREE LIKE BIRDS IN THE SKY
MOSTLY IT DOESN´T TAKE SO LONG
SO WE ARE DEALING WITH HATE AND JEALOUSY
ONE MORE STEP YOU´RE GONNA FALL
ACCUSING ME FOR WHAT I´VE DONE
THERE´S NOTHING LEFT TO SAY
SO WE BOTH HAVE THESE SAME RIGHTS
AND HERE´S NO ONE TO BLAME
YOU SEEMED LIKE ANGEL IN THE SKY
REALITY CAME THROUGH
FINAL WORDS STILL SOUNDS LIKE THESE:
„DO I WANT TO BE WITH YOU“
TELLING HER MIND TO HAVE MUCH MORE
WILLING FOR ONCE TO LOSE IT ALL
CAN YOU JUST HEAR THAT VOICE, THE INNOCENCE
THAT´S SPEAKING IN JEALOUSY
MOVING ME CLOSER TO THE EDGE
LAST TIME I SAW YOU THERE NEAR OUR SECRET PLACE
WHERE WE USED TO LIVE THAT DREAM
DREAM IS GONE BUT MEMORIES LEFT, THEY WILL FOLLOW US
TILL WE FIND OUT WHAT DO THEY MEAN
WHEN I PASSED YOU BY I TALKED TO MYSELF
SHOULD I SAY TO YOU A FEW WORDS
NOTHING REALY ENDS AND FOR ME RIGHT NOW
IT´S JUST LIKE AN OPEN CASE
YOU SEEMED LIKE ANGEL IN THE SKY
REALITY CAME THROUGH
FINAL WORDS STILL SOUNDS LIKE THESE:
„DO I WANT TO BE WITH YOU“
CAN YOU JUST HEAR THAT VOICE, THE INNOCENCE
THAT´S SPEAKING IN JEALOUSY
MOVING ME CLOSER TO THE EDGE
BUT ONE THING YOU CANNOT HIDE, YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS
HOW´S TEARING YOU APPART
DON´T RUIN IT ALL TIME AFTER TIME
SOMETIMES YOU THINK YOU DON´T FEEL ANY SORROW AND PAIN
MY WOUNDS ARE STILL SO REAL, I KEEP ON CALLING AND FALLING
CAN YOU JUST HEAR THAT VOICE, THE INNOCENCE
THAT´S SPEAKING IN JEALOUSY
MOVING ME CLOSER TO THE EDGE
BUT ONE THING YOU CANNOT HIDE, YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS
HOW´S TEARING YOU APPART
DON´T RUIN IT ALL TIME AFTER TIME

THE ROAD
The road I've walked for my whole life has closed
Now I feel emptiness, all hopes and dreams are lost
I still remember that morning, I still can see the light
On one sunny day we set out for a fast ride
Everything seemed so perfect, we´re having a great time
but suddently something hit hard and tore our car appart
somewhere – we took the road to – nowhere
Just look around and see
I heard somebody´s calling, I heard somebody cry
My sad eyes were burning but I didn´t know why
When I looked around me I saw just fire
I tried to reach for your hand but
there was noone to be found
So helpless, I don´t wanna fell that anymore
Depressed, I prayed for help
I don´t want to lose the game before it starts
I cannot turn back and change the… past
The road I've walked for my whole life has closed
Now I feel emptiness, all hopes and dreams are lost
You know the reasons why…
I´d like to change these moments
for those we spent before
How life can be so violent
that I can´t see you any more
If I could forsee the future
you wouldn´t have died in vain
I know that time is the healer
only time can ease my pain
I don´t want to lose the game before it starts
I cannot turn back and change the… past

ANOTHER LIFE
I´M SICK OF THIS MORTAL LIFE
STILL MORE THINGS TO DEFEAT
JUST BEAR HANDS WITHOUT A KNIFE
IS THIS WHAT I NEED?
I JUST WANNA LIVE IN ANOTHER LIFE
WHERE EVERYTHING WRONG IS RIGHT
FEEL FREE TO GO FOR A LONG DRIVE
AND LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND
SOMETIMES I HAVE THESE VISIONS
SCARRES ME TO DEATH
CAUSES MAKING SUDDEN DECISIONS
I´M LOSING MY BREATH
I JUST WANNA LIVE IN ANOTHER LIFE
WHERE EVERYTHING WRONG IS RIGHT
FEEL FREE TO GO FOR A LONG DRIVE
AND LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND
NO NEED TO CONSTANT RUN
NO SHAME FOR THINGS I´VE DONE
BE LED BY ALL BEAMS OF SUN
TO FIND AM I THE ONE

SEPARATE WAYS
Is this the end?
Just tell me „my friend“
Somehow I never thought I would feel this way
it´s all in my head
too late to regret
from this moment on there´s nothing left to say
Sharing both, pleasure and pain
I believed most of pros will remain
You cannot deny
love has changed to a lie
But someday you will see who's to blame
I just wanna see
that you´re here for me
I´m not a useless toy
that fills you up with joy
There´s no compromise
You´ve gotta realise.
Each of us should rather take own separate ways
I´m bleeding, I´m drowning this time,
thoughts cut like a knife
Still searching for something in this life
It´s like being thrown among the cobras
Expecting bite from all the corners
Will you try to deny that all things
I made up somehow
I thought that things were getting clearer
Our chances could have been better
But this time I know that I will prefer my own life
I just wanna see
that you´re here for me
I´m not a useless toy
that fills you up with joy
There´s no compromise
you gotta realise.
Each of us should rather take own separate ways
I´m bleeding, I´m drowning this time,
thoughts cut like a knife
Still searching for something in this life
to know I am alive
Listen to what I say
I don´t wanna stay
in the place where we lived in fear and lie
I´ve just choosen my way to find new life motivation and destination

Judgement Day

JUDGMENT DAY
Saw it once in my dream
Just wasteland, no thing alive
I thought it meant nothing
but now I´ve no idea what might come
I know just one thing
We must stop pretending...
Look outside, world is dying
The main point we are losing
Will you try to pretend this is not our fault
Would you rather hide yourself to your vault?
Fly like an eagle, see how much we are able
to damage the precious, our Mother Earth
We are so blind, we cannot see
we´ve changed our bright reality
to the godforsaken place
with no chance to live
Draining her life blood
weakening her heart
endless destruction of our enviroment
Polluted cities
war´s harmed for centuries
killing the last of endangered species
Will you try to pretend this is not our fault
Would you rather hide yourself to your vault?
Fly like an eagle, see how much we are able
to damage the precious, our Mother Earth
We are so blind, we cannot see
we´ve changed our bright reality
to the godforsaken place
with no chance to live
The time goes by so quickly and we still refuse to listen
what you gonna say
Now we are close, so helpless I can´t belive and
I wonder if this is the Judgment Day?

BETTER PLACES
Your time is gone
think of new better places
just one more step to reach the unknown world
You´re all alone
be free and let the sences
find their way in the pieceful wind
Your time passes by so quickly
you can still remember
all those first steps in life
No one knows
what awaits for us tomorrow
nothing can last
forever
Don´t be afraid, one way or another
I know that one day
we´ll meet them together
Your time passes by so quickly
you can still remember
all those first steps in life
but then suddently you realise
that your game is over
It´s time to leave it all behind...
