(Music by Kötterl / Haimerl & Lyrics by Kötterl) Verse 1: A black box full of heart-shaped pieces of paper Is all that's left from you Wretched remains of irreplaceable Deliberately thrown away The dead heart inside me scream for resurrection Revive it one more time I want my wintersun to shine again Chorus: New thoughts of failure rising I kill the old ones every once in a while I searched for love and security But in the end I soon lost it all Everything ... Left alone to cry in hate and pain Verse 2: Deep inside me this selfishness kept breeding For far too long But still it's just not fear To hear myself scream, "No one else!" Now I wrapped this shell around me But I still want to mourn for More than a year of everything I needed How can this year already be gone Bridge: Even meeting my dead end There is nothing I repent I must accept my sun has now set But still there's nothing I regret Apart from th end I'm dying now Chorus: These thoughts of failure raising I can not preventable myself from bleeding again This search for love and security will finally end in pain and misery Everything is lost Left to die alone in hate and pain Lead: Kötterl

(Music & Lyrics by Kötterl by Stefanov) Verse 1: Though nothing's changing We still search for something to harness Into the deepest cavern Our dead bird's songs never rest Chorus: The Fire That Still Burns Grey In Our Eyes Ashes from the pyre Imprisoned but who denies Lead: Sheep Berger Verse 2: As we were solemn Our incubator nurished our content Now lying broken Woefully we pay the eternal debt Chorus: The Fire That Still Burns Grey In Our Eyes Ashes from the pyre Imprisoned but who denies Bridge: And we were dancing ... Oh you flames you dark ones in my hell I open wide ... And pour the bitter ness of life within Chorus: The Fire That Still Burns Grey In Our Eyes Ashes from the pyre Imprisoned but who denies The Fire That Still Burns Grey In Our Eyes

(Music & Lyrics by Kötterl by Stefanov) Verse 1: Staring on my riven self devoided I realize I'm still a slave Louring on this shattered state I let the sun blind my eyes once again Prechorus: And I never ask why Because I already know the answer Chorus: Before you take one last breath Another breath of fresh air You know your strength has left you Was it really worth the share Verse 2: But something's missing where's your dignity I find new chains every time I bleed They rip my skin defile my flesh Almost as your feeble embrace The border is the bone I'm abandone afforded by the sun's effort to give me warmth But soon I realize That light has never shone Lead: Haimerl Chorus: Before you take one last breath Another breath of fresh air You know your strength has left you Was it really worth the share Now listen my child no one escapes Not even well-off maggots like you We to the same diseases Now tell me what's your share

(Music by Ludwig Kötterl & Lyrics by Stefanov) Verse 1: When was the last time I slept? I do not know It seems this time I'm crawling on the bones Prechorus: This boat's fate is to break swift And sink asunder And this time there's just no rock To crawl under Lead: Sheep Berger Verse 2: It's this distinct rage Engulfed by fear This monument of pain I want to sear His screams direful Rend fissures in my ears Internal clocks are ticking Loudly for a tear Prechorus: Emotional strain slithers merciless My deceiver my eyes of glass Chorus: No I do not need your amendment I do not depend on you Please tell me you're the ned I do not require aid I'm not a part of you I'm only suffering the truth The circle that we run Forever In Despair Subsconciousness his lair I conflict this disease Conflict his disease He can not be seized Lead: Kötterl Verse 3: I reach out for myself Hoping his grasp will become weak As I gaze upon my arms I see his the one I seek Prechorus: Now I perceive that my mind is distinct Shall I give in or follow my instinct Chorus: No I do not need your amendment I do not depend on you Please tell me you're the ned I do not require aid I'm not a part of you I'm only suffering the truth The circle that we run Forever In Despair Subsconciousness his lair I conflict this disease Conflict his disease He can not be seized

(Music by sheep Berger / Kötterl & Lyrics by Diestelmann) Verse 1: I become aware of all these lies Life is to blame for Dirges always turn into futile cries As I'm Bleeding Forever More Prechorus: Nothing to see Which could comfort me Not even my pride remaining could win this fight bitterly cold Verse 2: Whensoever one anguish is over The next begins But much more Which intensity And one way less to flee Prechorus: Dirges still turn into futile cries As I am Bleeding Forever More Chorus: One step closer to edge of insanity I joggle my prison bars with might and maim I wonder if I will ever find the key belonging And if I'll ever escape this mental chain Lead: Sheep Berger Verse 3: Finally I try to continue and I succeed For I begin to adore every sorrow Now I resolve to heed That this will not change tomorrow Prechorus: Dirges still turn into futile cries As I am Bleeding Forever More Chorus: One step closer to edge of insanity I joggle my prison bars with might and maim I wonder if I will ever find the key belonging And if I'll ever escape this mental chain

(Music by Ludwig & Lyrics by Stefanov) Verse 1: Shouting that I serve you not I torn you from your sleep I hold your hand in dismay Assuaging your desperate sight We stare at the hills below Into the azure of tonight A crimson flash shoots through my eyes And from within my demon cries Chorus: My burden is to shelter you I preach to you to apprehend That every teardrop on your face Is not self-evident Now my fulfillment is Achieved I seize the day You have lost all that you believed My Beloved Sanctuary Verse 2: You grasp my hand we run away Black clouds shape in the sky The filthy blackness of your soul And the sable in your eyes Now tell me what you really need Is it your precious god Not even he bestows you heed Open your eyes to see the fraud Bridge: Run faster run faster I scream as you cry Impostor impostor I shout into the sky Chorus: My burden is to shelter you I preach to you to apprehend That every teardrop on your face Is not self-evident Now my fulfillment is Achieved I seize the day I remember how you were called My Beloved Sanctuary Leads: Schaferberger & Kötterl Bridge: Run faster run faster I scream as you cry Impostor impostor I shout into the sky Run faster run faster I scream as you cry Impostor impostor I shout into the sky Chorus: My burden is to shelter you I preach to you to apprehend That every teardrop on your face Is not self-evident Now my fulfillment is Achieved I seize the day You have lost all that you believed My Beloved Sanctuary

(Music & Lyrics by Kötterl) Verse 1: Look right into my eyes Watch the blind man lock his soul It's the silence I despise Leaving a heart with one more hole Look right into these eyes Can you see the king of lies Shutting up where he should speak Where's the moment I still seek for Prechorus: Read my thoughts And find your own Chorus: Shall we persist In remaining silent Oh father tell me After all these years of irrelevance Speak to me Verse 2: When you descended to what we are To all the things that we've done wrong To what we could have done so far I held your hand as I wished to all along The moment we broke the ice Death started freezing it again These few words just were not enough To take this everlasting pain away Prechorus: You red my thoughts And found your own Chorus: We did not persist In remaining silent Oh how I miss you After all these years of blindness You made me see

(Music & Lyrics by Kötterl) -January 1942 - Today I found my dearest friend ... dead The face of an aged and tired you While I covered his stomach still warm With my frozen fingers I finally and absolutely Realised That this raging war is nothing but insanity I write these words with tears in my eyes As for now I know They could be the last I leave to this world cursed We failed to see through the web of lies We failed to understand that there is nothing glorious about war And now we have to pay ... Verse 1: Back then when things all fell into place We got intoxicated by that's shady embrace For the welfare of our rich We took victory for granted Just as we were told Years went by and by now we are in doubt In doubt of our charge across the lands The dying we can not be of avail witt Possessed For anyone Prechorus: The clock of war will prove That hope is in vain but Obliterated youth How shall we bear up all the pain Chorus: We've marched on as the ones who still believed Before our minds perceived The downfall's closing in on us and One by one the sun will set down on us Our memories to dust Our Farewell though'll be sung forevermore Verse 2: This war is a shortcut to the absolute demise It's all unfolding before our eyes dying The death of millions of fathers The death of millions of sons No longer will I care soon all be gone Yet still forced to march on Chorus: We've marched on as the ones who still believed Before our minds perceived The downfall's closing in on us and One by one the sun will set down on us Our memories to dust Our Farewell though'll be sung forevermore Leads: Kötterl Berger & sheep Chorus: One by one the sun will set down on us Our memories to dust Our Farewell though'll be sung forevermore One by one the sun will set down on us Our memories to dust Our Farewell though'll be sung forevermore One by one the sun will set down on us Our memories to dust Our Farewell though'll be sung forevermore One by one the sun will set down on us Our memories to dust Our Farewell though'll be sung forevermore For our cause we sacrificed For the cause we sacrificed For a cause we sacrificed For which cause we sacrificed For nothing did we sacrifice ourselves
