Journey Towards Ruin
Dealing with the coldness Caught in eternal dusk Tomorrow’s but a dream Of a hopeless, forgotten child Bleeding from her stale heart She is leaving a trail of sin Countless hours age the skin She loses track of time, feels tired and falls asleep Craving for her blessing, for a kiss that could heal their wounds Fallen from grace and wiped from the face of the world Within walls where no human being should live See all those tiny crippled souls how They twitch to every noise in ecstasy This is insane All those little hearts, all this pain So deprived of any love Malformed and laced with mental scars Left for dead Waiting room Afterlife, oblivion – just leave this place of doom House of shame No one deserves The coldest of hells upon earth Life seems strange in our eyes Sit and watch it die Times are cold and vile, when you look at men Never have I felt, such disgust against my tribe How long can we stay? Waiting for the purge We’re the enemy Scourging mother earth Aimless Cut-throat Moloch Worn out Losing time There’s nowhere to hide As we desecrate the body on which we still depend Something gets left behind along the journey towards ruin Where the mind gets torn apart and is set to kill There’s no dawning for a stillborn hope Nothing left to lose, start again Watch the hate rise again Cleanse me now of this sin Pull us down, seal our fate Cleanse me now Start again Start again Set to kill Watch the hate rise again Cleanse me now of this sin Pull us down, seal our fate Cleanse me now Set to kill Set to kill Start again

This is the day one body burnt And we all were told to weep Yet time will tell if this bond lasts Ten years from now they may be foes Just like the ones before them Hate will rise and reign over all Time won't alter our past It only affects what we think and how we act From this point on Mourning the lesser evils Invaded their nations and removed them with brute force Our leaders knew that this would happen, now we wait... Tied to a frail shell of lies Suffocating on time While the agony's kept alive New bogeymen will arise And while everything's set ablaze It gets darker every day We're living to join this game A game played by the poor That only rewards the core Of the ones who bait and gain More fortune out of our pain How can you expect me to be smiling, as our world is dying? Drenched in blood and covered in shit We're living until our grey hearts break I try to numb everything that I feel And so I force-feed myself With pictures straight out of this hell In hope to deaden my compassion For the lost ones and the dead I am there when they burn I am there when they take their dying breath Day by day I'll be watching Just like that And when I turn my back at this mess It's all over Just like that

Burning fields - alleged wars are on, unknown enemies roam our temples and our homes Show me the tomb where the bloom of infamy was Born Why does it feel like my eyes are shuddering? The breathing’s shallow and my mind keeps screaming Swallowing the pain that is spreading in front of me, the lies and the horrors, all the enforced fighting I’m not myself, I am not deciding what to believe and the drums keep beating Twist my neck with another distraction, I thirst for sorrow and the next big affliction Empathy - I keep it locked inside Thrilled and amazed by the vast loads of suffering, feed me with madness, it’s not affecting Anything I know, for I dug this common grave to bury the last relicts of my guilty conscience All days end as our hearts are shattered by the terror, the deceit and the constant bloodshed Time is up, we are nothing to anyone and couldn’t even manage to prevent the secret war hawks from bringing death to us – boiling death How comes no one ever dropped out? How comes no one ever stopped them from injecting hate and fear? Was it phlegm, was it sloth, was it all too distant? These wars are fuelled by their acts of treason, again and again, it just keeps repeating All days end as our hearts are shattered by the terror, the deceit and the constant bloodshed This is hell, it will rise upon everyone - we couldn’t even manage to refuse to absorb their poison Can’t you see? We’re already dead I have watched them, legions crying over sheer piles of human flesh And by dawn there will be silence On this stone I come to rest Cold as my blood, dead like our world Night by night I’m haunted by this terrifying dream, although I know this is far from my reality I woke up at first light to the sound of dying screams Only to discover that death has caught up with me Swallowing the pain that is spreading in front of me, the lies and the horrors, all the enforced fighting All days end as our hearts are shattered by the terror, the deceit and the constant bloodshed This is hell, it will rise upon everyone - we couldn’t even manage to prevent the secret war hawks From bringing death

Gaze at the burning stars above our home Shining unconcerned of all this evil Oh so calm you are watching from afar Rest underneath the crown of the old oak Standing firm despite of all this evil While I’m longing for the sweet relief Oh so calm you are humming from the hill Here I am Silently holding on Why can’t this last endlessly? Tell me, have you ever felt the urge to leave? Cast away the grinding sorrow Bless me with your calm I embrace the warming sun, The rain, that dyes the Stone I fade away I try to reach the peak of ease Just once more Fill me with emptiness and Wake me once my mortal shell went dry No desire weights on my heart Fall into a dream, where death begins

Still waiting Before this dead end, dusk to dawn Something is holding me Cravings start to ache Manifested in flesh Hear it calling, the fever It's tempting and violently closing in Breaking the deadlock takes nothing It's crumbling and you can see right through it Losing yourself in a notion of freedom Of what could be â instantly For some time I stared at all the things I fear and loathe Laid out at my feet, in some way vulgarly exposed For some time I stared at all the things I fear and loathe Near, within my reach and even so I finally chose To walk the other way While I may go 'round in circles I will live to see another day Betrayed by my own expectations I am still everything I scorn Breathe in, breathe out What drives me? Pride and envy Breathe in, breathe out I can't see I am empty We're alone in a world where the numb are reigning Following in the steps of an absent being All the rage and the pain is locked up and buried 'Til some day I may rise and release my hate

Roots – reaching so deep, affecting your every move Roots – clenched to the spine, so nothing could ever expel them Roots – rotten but firm, still spreading, still tainting what’s left of you So, across the mountains he goes On and on through the endless snow Over rocks and past the land he knows To a valley where the sun never Shows There in the shadows they live Truly happy with the way how it is No one has the right to insist, That they take a certain road and change their ways of living life Least of all, a foreign man Shadows part and light breaks through As he casts the night away By now, dreadful screeching fills the air As their skin and flesh dissolves Dead eyes are staring towards the bright sky Mummified corpses are seaming the streets Shine forth and cleanse them for this is the truth If they can’t stand it, they have to shed blood Give in Let the purge purify your hearts Tear the flesh from your bones It’s flawed, steeped with sin You shall be reborn It was the most silent night And only the stars were moving Cooling dew settled on burnt flesh Revealing a scenery of devastation Blinded men, women and children alike Lying next to the remains of former living bodies Despair reached up to the heavens, as life bowed to the new law I mould them in shape Save them from sin This is the way This is the way of the righteous It leads to salvation and bliss
