When the lights go out I am sucking up hate
for humanity and everything else
when the city sleeps I will be on my feet
I'll do everything to make blind people see
I will keep it a secret, forever denied
when the city sleeps I will be on my feet
I'll do everything to make blind people see
I will keep it a secret, forever denied
a tale for believers, misleaded and blind
A maze in my heart to my lungs

Black Blood
02:50

You tried to hide, you tried to run, you tried to shout
as loud as you can, with gods will in your mouth
this is the bitter taste after giving in
this is the bitter taste after kneeling down
you won't find peace with your knees on the ground
you won't find salvation with your folded hands
prayers, donations and candles for one single lie
black hearts ready to rot
black hopes created by the words of god
black blood, the proof for a broken bond
between earth and this thing up above
a swarm of flies in your dead throat
not able to speak one more word, for a lying world
where living a safe and opulent life is still a curse
a swarm of flies in your dead throat
not able to speak one more word, for a dying world
where living a safe and opulent life is still a curse

The only way is reaching out
for black suns buried in clouds
their fire will extinguish because of my hands
I put a nail into a coffin to see them fade
drown this city in disbelief-hear these people scream
no matter how they feel
no matter how they feel
I put a nail into a coffin to see them fade
I can see the difference between reality and dream
they say we need a King, someone who reigns and leads
they say we need a King, someone who reigns and leads and fights and kills
but every raising King is going down to his knees
but every raising King is going down to his knees

I am watching the statue on the cross
a bloody face and a crown of thorns
everyone knows his last words in this world:
"Father forgive them, they know not what they do"
why don't you come down from this symbol
to take them with you in your tomb?
this house was built with bricks of hope
reigned by preachers for the savage folk
this is not your realm, this is not your throne
you are not the one who decides about right and wrong
this house is a bondage, a choking rope
it feels like a leash around my throat.
I am not ready to become one with this world
his father left him alone on his way to the throne
just a man with a heart of stone is able to leave his son on his own

I'm casting shadows to the clouds
to bring back lights to the ground
I denied to walk on this dry soil
"But blessed are your eyes, for what they see
and blessed are your fears, because they feel"
I am cursed, among the wolves
waiting for the whistle to stop
(I am) trapped because of fallen bridges,
waiting for the world to end
"But blessed are your eyes, for what they see
and blessed are your fears, because they feel"

Time Heals Nothing

They don't know much about the deadly threat
a lack of knowledge about the silent dead
thousands of words just kept unsaid
wrapped in a veil by certain names
they keep a city alive which does not exist
family and friends in a poisoned mist
they keep their eyelids shut to escape this shit
no future life, for their future kids
and every time they talk to us about the unforgiving sea
you can hear their voices shaking and see them choke their tears.

Among The Wolves

I couldn't see a golden gate
in front of me when I passed away
just oppressed afterlifes with different names
they call him "holy father" - don't look at me
I'm not the chosen one, I'm not your son
I'm just walking alone in the city of perdition
I won't bear the cross that you have made
I wont carry your word
I just want to walk away

Falling horizons and a black house in sight
it's night on earth, the tower is rising high.
A heavy wooden door, I have seen it so many times.
The building is empty, no people inside
just sad looking statues, like a childhood without light
And right before the altar I see the priest
a leader of liars, the king of thieves
he welcomes me with open arms and a face of relief
"I've been waiting for years, to release you from grief"
The cross behind his smile is a symbol of war
the reason for killing, a connection, a door
between the fortune of heaven
and god and the poor

The Eighth Day

Once raising kingdoms are sinking deeper
swallowed by the quicksand of the riverbank
empty throats are voicless again
searching eyes confront nothingness
the bridges fell earlier
the kingdom falls now
the king is dead
the lightbringer down
