This is all for your own good, You will come to see. I don’t expect you to thank me now, But I do all this for you. Tearing down the walls surrounding you, Tearing down your world. Reach out and take my helping hand, You see, you have to understand, It’s my duty, it’s what I own you after all And I will force you to be free, Turn on the light so you can see Your perception just reflections on the wall So the world arrives: the end of history A war to end all wars, ends justify the means The liberators march in chains they forged upon themselves, Another stone in the road to hell. Laws to tell her what to wear or not, Laws to set her free. The cage is open, why don't you flee? You're misguided, but I blame you not, How could you have seen. Blind and confined; Half-beast, half-child, Your saviour has arrived! Freed from freedom, She gave herself to me. Dark desires, Take me; set me free!

Who will be there when the skies turn grey? - Turisas! You can count on us. Who's gonna push you through heavy days? - Turisas! Rugged and robust. The night was cold, but I kept walking on, I had passed the point of no return Turning back was too late but a thought just kept creeping in; was I walking the wrong way? You think that it's too late, change the course, do not hesitate. Ten more miles and you'll find yourself hoping you had. When your ship has sailed, take the next, and you're on your way. The old dog will learn as many tricks as its false pride permits. Who will be there when the skies turn grey? - Turisas! You can count on us. Who's gonna push you through heavy days? - Turisas! Rugged and robust. When you have run aground, when on the rocks, when water's flooding in, how to turn around your luck? Stop crying in your beer, out with the bails, soon you'll be on course again, with wind in the sails. It was much too late to start at her age, how could she ever compete with the best? There's always someone with a head start on you, but there is no pro league of life. Persistence is noble, said the captain while going down; went down with his ship, that old fool, lacked the courage to turn around - oh yeah. Who will be there when the skies turn grey? - Turisas! You can count on us. Who's gonna push you through heavy days? - Turisas! Rugged and robust. When you have run aground, when on the rocks, when water's flooding in, how to turn around your luck? Stop crying in your beer, out with the bails, when winds are blowing hard; hold on to the rails! Sail against the wind if that's what it takes ...

Piece by piece - slice by slice. A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed- The boiling frog that did not leap, just take one grain, it's still a heap. Of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, I hereby publish and declare this to be my testament. To my eldest son I leave the right to speak his mind; And my daughter shall be free from oppression of any kind. I have sacrificed, worked all my life, as have the ones before me, so do not squander, do not gamble; watch it carefully. Piece by piece - slice by slice. A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed- The boiling frog that did not leap, just take one grain, it's still a heap. By checking this box I acknowledge, I confirm. I've read and understood the terms; scroll down, tick, confirm. Piece by piece - slice by slice. A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed- The boiling frog that did not leap, just take one grain, it's still a heap. The tide is turning, The Reichstag burning, They're at the border, Need law and order. It was not my shout, I did not speak out, when they come for me, who will be left to speak for me? Stay alert and keep your eyes skinned, watch the clouds form and feel the wind, when you're asking should you reef, the time to do so is long gone, Principiis obsta, don't forget: The longer you wait, the harder it gets. Piece by piece - slice by slice. A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed- The boiling frog that did not leap, just take one grain, it's still a heap ...

The sweetest morning call Last marking on the wall Bundled sheets across the floor, Tangled hair galore I'm counting down the time, The sole thought in my mind: Today is the day I leave all of this behind My time here is over The future starts today A new beginning somewhere far away I did my time, it's over I served my days and swore The day I walk out through that gate, I'm coming back no more The sleepless nights longing for this day The time I've wasted, what did I gain? FUCK ALL! [Screaming:] This is the end! Goodbye my friend! You'll never see me again! Not coming back, I have no doubt My time is done, I am checking out, I AM FREE! My time is done I'm free! Hundreds of nights have passed, The day is here at last Seasons came and seasons went They all ran by so fast Hear a distant knell The chiming of my bell The time to move on has come, this is farewell My time here is over The future starts today A new beginning somewhere far away I did my time, it's over I served my days and swore The day I walk out through that gate, I'm coming back no more My time is done I'm free! My time is done I'm free! (Oi oi!) Free! (Oi oi!) Free! (Oi oi!) My time is done I'm free! (Oi oi!) Free! (Oi oi!) Free! (Oi oi!)

Two lefts and a right, Stay out of sight, It’s been quite a night, Now run Bhang-Eater, run! Run through the goldsmiths’ great hall, Past all the rugs along the wall, The scent of spices on stall, “Quick! In here! Crawl!” Rude awakening, No more bathing, Public erection, Gives little affection. You need a good plan, If you pee on the sultan, I’ll escape this story, In all my glory. Run through the goldsmiths’ great hall, Past all the rugs along the wall, The scent of spices on stall, All in the raw!
Thunder and smoke fills the air, A violent breath; The beast has awakened, beware! For it's been cornered again, A leaking dromon, The oarsmen jerking their chains. Greek fire! Ablaze! Burn! Burn! Clandestine operation, Behind heavy doors, A secret compound, No one knows, How to put out the blaze? When water you throw, Feeds the flames. Greek fire! Ablaze! Burn! Burn! They burned down the heavens, They burned down the land, A raging inferno, In ashes we stand. They burned up our children, Who were never born, They burned up our future. To pieces we're torn, All hope forlorn. Thunder and smoke fills the air, A violent breath; The beast has awakened, beware! For it's been cornered again, A leaking dromon, The oarsmen jerking their chains. Greek fire! Ablaze! Burn! Burn!

I've sailed the seven seas, I've climbed the mountains high, I've crossed the endless plains, But still the search goes on. I've waited for so long, For my life to begin, I've waited for someone, Something, to make me complete. The sun will shine tomorrow, Better days lie ahead. The sun will shine tomorrow, Don't forget! This is a passing state, Soon things will be as planned, And what a relief it'll be To put all of this behind. One day I'll reach the top, One day I will be free, One day I can't stop. Looking, start living instead. The sun will shine tomorrow, Better days lie ahead. A dreadful trap so hollow. Let it rain! Did I ever hear the waves? Did I ever enjoy the view? Did I ever smell the grass? As the days passed Did I ever hear the waves? Did I ever enjoy the view? Did I ever smell the grass? As the days passed Don't waste your time searching for the beginning All you'll find there is the end Don't waste your time searching for the beginning All you'll find there is the end Don't waste your time searching for the beginning All you'll find there is the end Don't waste your time searching for the beginning All you'll find there is the end...

Wine flowed in ashtrays, Mea Culpa we cried, Till the Balkan mob, Took us for a ride. He was stripped by force, 60 miles per hour, Out the window thrown, Fuck That Bird! Broken glass on the floor, Blood was everywhere, Wrong guy punched in the face, Fisherman was there. She had a white small cat, But her feet were bare, Was she real or not? Was too drunk to care. Jack n’ Coke, - I know that glow. Pass the smoke, - And here we go. Tonight is the night! Hey ho! Vodka shots, - Three in a row. Hell, why not! - The fact is no good story ever starts with drinking tea! Alcohol! All night long! One more song! Legends of tomorrow! Alcohol! All night long! Same old song! Tomorrow and tomorrow! Another beer, Last call is near, Move up a gear, There’s still time for some more! No time for bed, Sleep when I’m dead, Sky’s turning red, The sun’s rising again!

Roll the dice name your price torn asunder loot and plunder On the ride in the guise the great divider the gap grows wider Pointing fingers laying blame the fight goes on, it's a silly game black or white no hope in sight We are falling apart from within take my hand; once more united we stand I remember a day in a time faraway when we both were in this together when we still had the flame at the top of our game we were strong oh we were strong It's in times like these we need one another through the storms side by side we shall ride we ride together now and forever We had trust we had hope pulled at the same end of the rope unrivaled and undefeated but somewhere down the road we lost track of friend and foe we lost it all, we lost it all it's in times like these we need one another through the storms side by side we shall ride we ride together now and forever over snowy mountains under star-lit skies through the scorching sun side by side we ride Throw away your pride no more blame no more sides all of us are in this together when the i turns to we things will change you'll come to see time for change it's time for change it's in times like these we need one another through the storms side by side we shall ride we ride together now and forever!
