Bury the Light

Endless Like infinity A still and starry sea Leading to a lifeless galaxy Washes over me When suddenly I see That this is not a sleepless fantasy By the coming light Leave me here to dream tonight The flashing in my eyes Is darkness in disguise I start to see my life go racing by Voices from inside Say fight from where you lie Don’t let it be your guide right out of life By the coming light Leave me here to dream No, not tonight No, no, no, not tonight Leave me here to dream Tonight You false light Hear me well I’ll send you back to hell Darkness Dims the light away Silently it fades To flash before another sleepless face So the night is saved I defeated fate I drift away in waves toward the day I sent the light away Leave me here to dream No, not tonight No, no, no, not tonight I would never dream Of the light

Call her your queen And lay a bed of roses at her feet Court the obscene And lay with the swine Her pledges and promises Naked lies that beg your own decline See no wrong in this You're drunk on her venomous wine Poison fills your cup And when your mouth starts to foam You trust that you're rightly riled Frothing bile Yank the leash, command it to comply The Wolves are coming Raise the whip and dare it to defy The Wolves are coming You thought you raised a dog, and wonder why The wolf has bloodlust in his eyes You’re the trembling prey Wolves will not obey Slave in the mines And praise your masters’ magnanimity Die for his diamonds And groan for his gold Unguarded and tame Broken by the hypnotizing hold Think you're high from the flames But you're feverish out in the cold Your life is cheaply sold And then when the coal runs out And the mountains are stripped and bare Where's your share? Yank the leash, command it to comply The Wolves are coming Raise the whip and dare it to defy The Wolves are coming You thought you raised a dog, and wonder why The wolf has bloodlust in his eyes You’re the trembling prey Wolves will not obey Hacking and lame Deny yourself the wanted medicine The mark in a game That you think you control Wager with your soul And so you howl with the wolves But the scent on the wind is yours The bloody track is yours Yank the leash, command it to comply The Wolves are coming Raise the whip and dare it to defy The Wolves are coming You thought you raised a dog, and wonder why The wolf has bloodlust in his eyes You’re the trembling prey Wolves will not obey

Hearts gone deaf to the cries Ringing the death toll of freedom Blind to pain in our eyes Marching our way to the Colosseum They grace a roaring applause Masking out the voice of reason Generations have suffered the cause Justifying castles in the sky Fortifying Castles In The Sky Certifying heroes as they die Why? Behind a fortress of stone Towering over the masses The king looks after his own Feeding and filling their privileged glasses They drink the blood of our dead From a sea of deep denial Hold your tongue or he'll hand you your head Pay your tax or get the axe Respect the castles in the sky Walls defending castles in the sky Reprehending castles in the sky Condescending castles in the sky Rainbows ending castles in the sky Far above Calling us Peace will come Everything you're dreaming of Like a dove Soon enough Leave the world to suffer But why? Walls defending castles in the sky Reprehending castles in the sky Condescending castles in the sky Rainbows ending castles in the sky The sky For them, we die

Sleep now my child We will rest tonight I am your shelter From the storm outside There is no sadness In our song tonight So until tomorrow Say goodnight At dawn, all I see is darkness Deep snow surrounds the house And there’s no getting out For days, we’re trapped inside this fortress The doors are frozen locked The windows icy blocks I know we won’t get out tomorrow It seems our freedom’s taken Replaced by desperation And as the weeks go by in sorrow We watch each other starve And I prepare to carve At a month’s demand Our supply surpassed My secret plan A grim repast A chance to stay alive In this world of frozen light Hate to see the hunger In your eyes Take a piece from me Even though I’m weakening You will be alive Another night It might be insane But there’s no other way Only one can survive So I’ll keep you alive Ignoring the pain I try to sustain I hope you don’t see That I’m feeding you… me Sleep now my child I will keep you warm Don’t let your spirits Be buried by the storm Just close your eyes Don’t want you to see Why you keep living How much I bleed So with this knife I give you life This is the last time Come take my heart Just as the sunshine Comes to melt the dark Last meal is given The child is fed Now the sun is risen And I am dead A chance to stay alive In this world of frozen light I took away the hunger From your eyes It was all in secrecy But in piece by piece of me I have given you Another life

In total darkness, slime is the air that I breathe The stifled choking of sinners is all that I hear Forever drowning, clawing for life in a bloody sea But after ages, I feel something new to be near A thread in the blackness above! I start the climbing, pulling myself up the thread Unto the heavens, hand over hand to a great salvation Up many miles, the Mountain of Needles is small down below My arms grow tired, ascending the silk to escape damnation Looking down, I see a line A thousand sinners close behind Return to hell This thread is mine! (snap) Oh! Can I ever hope to recover? Back into the sea The heaving depths of my misery No! Can I hope again to discover A thread to set me free To end the torture of history?

An earthen melody Enchants my ears An evening symphony of tears hanging in the sky I dream of better years A distant sun I watch the rain and wonder whether you and I can ever Hope to find that way again Hope to walk that road together It could take forever Wait for all the tears to end Cry For what we could have been Could have that chance again We won’t know how it ends without one more try Cry Before we fade We turn to grey Remember why we turned away Is it too late? Before we die You and I Open wide our eyes Ready for another day to cry An echoed memory Returns to me A voice is speaking from the river ever flowing by It washes out my heart And leaves me cold I mourn for all the days of old and I wonder can we Hope to find that way again Hope to walk that road together I could wait forever Counting on the tears to end Cry For what we could have been Could have that chance again We won’t know how it ends without one more try Cry Cry For what we could have been This might be the end At least I found a friend not afraid to cry Cry

Waning strength feels always more eminent To those it fails The mighty, still falling, so muster their armies And set the sails In the burning twilight glow Can’t you see your sun goes down for you? Look with pity on people less powerful See them cowered in fear Say you’ve come to redeem them, but still they don’t know Just why you’re here In the empty starless black Don’t you know your sun is never coming back The graveyard of empires is calling you Calling you, it’s calling you It’s calling you to conquer The graveyard of empires is calling you But will you live to see it through? Over mountains, Over deserts and over the fields Crossed the oceans Crossed the heavens and still no one yields to you Days and months and years turn to decades What power you had left is rapidly fading Alive in the tomb are you laid “Save us! Save us! The savage betrayed us! Save us! Save us! We’re too great to die,” you pray For the red of the day Topple mountains Clear the deserts Burn the fields They still won’t bow to you Grab your chest, and clutch at the gaping wound Your bloody shame Your body will rot with the others before you It ends the same At the blinding break of dawn In the foreign sun you pass forever on The graveyard of empires is calling you Calling you, it’s calling you It’s calling you to conquer The graveyard of empires is calling you But no one lives to see it through

Won’t be dark tonight A great despair, we know why Some say it’s alright But we all know, that’s a lie I fear the day that’s coming Bring back the night to me Yeah Voices from the crowd Said burn the earth, it’s allowed Chaos coming now And we all know, it won’t go out I fear for all tomorrow Don’t need the sun to see A world in sleepless sorrow In flames eternally Burn with me By my light, you will see Burn with me Paradise will never be And now in the twilight I see the smoke rise Burn with me By my light, you will see Burn with me Paradise will never be Outside in the twilight I see the smoke rise Oh, in fires in the distance Our sadness glowing Burning on Burning on

Break your back, all the action Takes your breath away Grind the gears, after years, it’s Just another day A wicked lie told coldly by Dead voices in the sky Says you should just obey because they Own you ‘til you die They don’t want you to know They think that you don’t know It’s an illusion of control Oh-oh-oh Only you decide the time is right to Go-oh-oh Make a difference to the world around you No-oh-oh Don’t let the devils in the sky deceive you Oh-oh-oh You have the power now In your hands So here’s the plan Trip the switch, trick the system Snipe it from inside This mad machine’s worst enemy Could be itself tonight Right behind your tired eyes Your spirit is the spark Blast the light, let loose the lightning Show them you’re in charge! They don’t want you to know They think that you don’t want to know That you decide what they control Oh-oh-oh Only you decide the time is right to Go-oh-oh Make a difference to the world around you No-oh-oh Don’t let the devils in the sky deceive you Oh-oh-oh You have the power now In your hands Under the circuitry humming Rings a warning of shame Soon an unholy cavalry’s coming Waiting, waiting You reexamine the riddle No, it’s never too late Realize the solution is simple By your hands escape Oh-oh-oh Only you decide the time is right to Go-oh-oh Make a difference to the world around you No-oh-oh Don’t let the devils in the sky deceive you Oh-oh-oh You have the power now In your hands
