Marching Through Darkness
People dying all around Watch it through a lens Always ready for full account Deliver the evidence Run on automatic – doing the job First row – close up – watch them die Ceasing lives – aware of death The last thing they see - is themselves in the camera eye From now on I can only see a distorted reality Thoughts of guilt – of blame – of hate Please end the hell my mind creates Kill me – Set me free Prison walls all around Not dead but buried underneath Trapped forever underground The light of day you´ll never see A parallel society Sadistically kept apart A grotesque community Where life ends when it starts Unknown to the upper world Not missed by anyone The TV set a source of hurt Imagine the rays of the sun From now on I can only see a distorted reality Thoughts of guilt – of blame – of hate Please end the hell my mind creates Kill me – Set me free

When the weight of the world is on your shoulders again Can´t stand the pressure pushing you to the floor Like a lead weighted jacket This burden so heavy Time to take it off now Time to strip it away Do it now, confront your fears See what you are and what should be There will be no one to help you better than yourself Marching through darkness No captain by your side But even in the emptiness You´ll find your path of light - Leading you out There will be no turning back You´ve got to face yourself Your inner demons – thoughts of black Try to blight your will A light comes out of black Arising from that hole Coming back with new power You will defeat your foes Marching through darkness No captain by your side But even in the emptiness You´ll find your path of light - Leading you out

Hold on! This is the time to stop and end this lie futile to maintain Give it up and face the facts all fades and never lasts futile to suppress Let go your misbelief Realize the bitter truth futile to ignore All these years I thought there´ll be a solution a way out of every misery I´m beginning to falter I´m losing my good faith that all will be well in the end Hope dies last Just let me sleep to end the day I can´t go on living this way Reset my life so I can start again and escape this eternal cycle of strain In the end it´s dawning on me I can´t evade the way of the world Please alleviate my pain! The grand illusion dies It´s getting dark Hope dies last - but it does Just let me sleep to end the day I can´t go on living this way Reset my life so I can start again and escape this eternal cycle of strain Give up hope! Give up hope and let go! Give up hope! Give up hope and let go! Hope dies last Hope dies last - but it does Hope dies last Hope dies last - but it does

Tell the truth now – maybe suffer a frown Or confess later – and deal with the let down Keep feeding the lie – by telling another Your web of lies has started spinning itself Was it indifference – or lack of respect? How did you get yourself into this mess? Excuse – feed it! White lie – feed it! Blood Red Lie – now fess up! This vicious circle is a downward spiral You go on and on – until the only way out seems so impossible The ultimate confession: Self-humiliation Now face the monster you have fostered! A lie is a lie is a lie – is a lie is a lie is a lie A lie is a lie is a lie – never innocent Excuse – feed it! White lie – feed it! Blood Red Lie – now fess up! This vicious circle is a downward spiral

Wrong time - wrong place The innocent can't choose their fate All plans are void now Out of a clear sky they must face The imminent impact of hate Afraid to leave behind Afraid to let go Afraid to show mercy Afraid to lose control All these souls cry to heaven The living and the dying The believing and the denying In pain they scream The masters of life The lords of death cowardly hide in the shades The takers of life The bringers of death Their souls are lost in hopelessness No arms to fall into and no place to hide No shoulder to lean on Forsaken by everyone All these souls cry to heaven The living and the dying The believing and the denying In pain they scream
