Timid 04:14
Thoughts begin to bite Memories filled with anguish Beyond the doors The sum of all fears Face the enemy, save yourself Never let them take you down Your will cannot be broken Standing strong against all odds Time, and nothing will change With this feeling of desolation Everything seams to fall apart Caught in this faceless war Your heart bleeding Your soul reeling Your mind squeezing You´re trapped inside your fears Timid - Forever Failure Timid - Burn to dust Timid - Slave to the grind Timid - Last one in line Violated mind You try to live, you try to breathe Your fate is written in blood Gotta keep it real, gotta hold it down

Bazooka Kiss 04:42
Count your teeth, number your bones All is lost, all is tossed away Blurting out and rambling Poisoned snake hiding in the grass Stop myself From going blind End of lies Face the truth I am not a victim anymore Step across out of the storm In the darkest of night Blurring lights and wondering signs Keep myself Searching in the mist End of lies End of cries Your words are like a wheel Spinning on and on I´m not going on with this The only thing that remains is A BAZOOKA KISS Say hello, say goodbye A little „FU“ to the sky Surrounded by idiots You can bring me down Stop myself From going wild End of days Face the facts Hit myself hard Head against the wall Finished what I started And it started with a kiss Keep myself Alive and well End of lies Face the facts Your words are like a wheel Spinning on and on I´m not going on with this The only thing remains are A BAZOOKA KISS

Windows to the world Cold Void of the ancient ones It comes from outta space From out of nowhere Hell unleashed For whom the bell tolls For the glory of the next day Keeping the dream alive Cities aflame Terror on this town Nowhere to hide Nowhere to run Listen to the sound Century Doom Machine No mercy for the soul Century Doom Machine Devastating nightmare Can´t get out of here Born in a casket Died at the gallows end Skull crushing image Blood thirsty creature Soul eating demon Red night fever dreams Cities aflame Fading light Cities aflame Cultures exploding No former glory Century Doom Machine Damned for all time Century Doom Machine Listen to the sound Century Doom Machine No mercy for the soul Century Doom Machine

You feel the pressure To always be the number one The weight of the world Still on your shoulder There is no light At the end of the tunnel With your feet on the ground The whole world tumbling down Stand and deliver Tear down the walls Raise your voice Scream out your fear Afraid of tomorrow Dark force called life This shiny golden palace Ain´t no worth to live here Beneath The Wheel Hell is not a place Hell is a sorry state Life would never been easy But after all it is your turn Standing at the crossroad Left hand path, right wing death Between the middle of nothing And the abyss of something On your knees Slave to society Raise your voice Freedom is not for sale Struggle from inside No time to waste Thousand ways to die Hundred ways to live Beneath The Wheel

Mercy Blow 05:08
A war like no other Started years ago All hope died A little more every day A whisper far away Got over in shrill screaming Hundred screams A thousand deaths The took the soul Cracked that heart out Bites tore the flesh No strike of grace Waiting for death Waiting for salvation So starts to pain Redemption is near Kneel down Pray for mercy Bow down Kiss the ground The first lesson in this row was Knee down and serve The second lesson in this row was The Mercy Blow One war is like the other Only the weapons change The greed and the power to be Always remains the same Whoever rebels Whoever thinks Will be crushed By the machine All the end The sky is still blue And the world is always turning

Petrichor 04:07
Open the gate Blazing heat Freezing moon Cold light of the night Black clouds (Thunder strikes) Brutal sounds (Demigod) Steel meets flesh (Bones crushing) At the end of the day (Kiss of war) Unleash the hounds Chaos rising Hammer to fall On the summit of thunder Magic and silver (golden age of the axe) Blood will spill (for whose sake) Thy kingdom come (black holes in red snow) At the end of the night (spells cast in the air) Petrichor Warfare rising Heads rolling down A good place to die Is a bad place to live Red horizon (In the iron age) Standing alone (kneel down and pray) For our masters glory (Send them to the keep) No turning back (Fight to attack) Magic and silver (golden age of the axe) Blood will spill (for whose sake) Thy kingdom come (black holes in red snow) At the end of the night (spells cast in the air) Petrichor

High across the open sea Sailing to the edge of the world To conquer vast territories Victory was hatched from a cannonball They shipped to foreign shores Looking forward to silver and gold Guided by raging waters Straight into the eternal black Screams from the crows nest „Enemies“ around us Screams of fear and helplessness Thousand miles away from home Turned upside down Down to the mariners´ rest Watery trails and firing guns Sleeping with one eye open Rolling waves of thunder Victory or death Bruised and battered Hot iron and broken faith Surrounded by cold water Explosions from nowhere The ship going down They can´t get out Waiting around to die Sounds of dying men and friends Memories fading away No Victory, only death is real

Inside this hollow body Burning flesh and broken bones Human form, numbing mind The horror of being alive It comes from the sky Someone shows you the way There is more than hate Inside the burning shade Hope that will never hide Dying without a fight Running to the glades Haunted by the burning shade Missing every nerve to feel Let there be pain Let there be blood Let there be one moment of ripping out your guts

Siege under fire Cities gonna burn Aimlessly and dazed Countless times Drowned in tears Peeling skin from bones Walked through blood Walked through hate Forgotten values Endless cold Sense of security Killed years ago Forced to kill Swallowed the pain Blessed by the hand Blessed by fear Siege Under Fire Siege under fire Buried in flames These days of sorrow Feels like the end of the world Between the screams Paint the world red Down from the fire sky Night is falling Last horizon Last wave is coming Voice calling clear But there is no one to hear They cry together They cry in pain No more last words No past left behind
10.
Ember Days 05:02
Standing in the shadows Time is running out A scream in the night Life goes on without me Ember Days Burning like a flame No reason to fight Lost in this moment With only fear in my heart Gentle rain begins to fall World coming down Everything changes Everything stays the same Ember Days My fingers reaching out To touch the darkness behind the wall Silence all around me Ember days are coming Ember Days Burning like a flame No reason to fight Lost in this moment With only fear in my heart Gentle rain begins to fall World coming down Everything changes Everything stays the same Fortune and fame Get up to keep it real The flame is still alive Down and out

Half a league onward In the valley of death Rode the six hundred Charge for the guns Into the valley of death Rode the six hundred Someone had blundered Theirs not to make reply Theirs not to reason why Theirs but to do and die Was there a man dismayed? Forward, the light Brigade Not thought the soldier knew Forward, the light brigade Cannon to right of them Cannon to left of them Cannon in front of them Stormed at with shot and shell Boldly they rode and well Into the jaws of death Into the mouth of hell Rode the six hundred Flashed all their sabres bare Flashed as they turned in air Sabring the gunners there Rode the six hundred All the world wondered Plunged in the battery smoke Reeled from the sabre stroke Then they rode back Cannon to right of them Cannon to left of them Cannon in front of them Stormed at with shot and shell But not the six hundred While horse and hero fell Then they rode back But not the six hundred Came through the jaws of Death, Back from the mouth of hell, All that was left of them,    Left of six hundred.
