LIMBO
Dusk up there is growling
It pierced my thoughts for one more time
I put to sleep so many lives
Am I alive or am I dead
I went further, than any other
This shapeless place won't let me go
As we clashed, chaos unleashed
I doomed myself forever
Darkness took me, as its own
Have I fallen, tainted my soul
To escape from this nightmare
I gladly gave my life away
But it seems that I am not enough
If there was a path from here
It is paved with blood I have shed
I deserve this place
Ripped by all the nonsense
I see the past it's my sleep
It drives me, it pulls me
But I can't do anything
Felt the death
I fell right in
I am nothing in this place
Forgotten pawn in a foreign game
Beat my battered flash
You may only put me back to sleep
The black that takes me
Will spit me right back out
I have a face of a dead man
I have no memory, I have no name
Caught in this war, between countless sides
Trapped in this loop, I kill without a sense
Of the time before the war
I don't remember much
This banged up mind
Isn't mine anymore
Look at my face
A scarecrow of a man
This is too many times my friend
To escape from this nightmare
I gladly gave my life away
But it seems that I am not enough
If there was a path from here
It is paved with blood I have shed
I deserve this place
Now, I've been falling in this dream for far too long
The black did cage me
How can I kill what is dead
How can I kill myself
To escape from this nightmare
I gladly gave my life away
But it seems that I am not enough
If there was a path from here
It is paved with blood I have shed

Time Stops For No Man

TIME STOPS FOR NO MAN
Lights broken in here
But I see the picture clear
Hold me close, keep me near
Like an angel you appear
We choke, we bleed
From wounds rotten
Flesh beaten, bones broken
From dirt we rise
I know and I speak the truth
Manufacturing a lie
By the end of the scene dominoes fall
Hurry up, take your place at the gallows
The fireworks
Crescendo in the midnight ringing
The overture is about to change it all
Within these walls
I started seeing the pattern
By whom am I caged
If not by my own hand
Murder at the matinee
There are dead men in the aisles
But the frozen mask just smiles
There is no flesh or blood
Within this cloak to kill
Learn the face beneath the mask
Never know mine
By the end of the scene dominoes fall
Hurry up, take your place at the gallows
The train is full
And such a death for me is fitting
Through flames I go to another cabaret show
I close my eyes
My ending marks the new beginning
What lies beneath the mask
Lies in us all
Remember, remember the fifth of November
The gunpowder treason and plot
I remember it all
You gave me freedom
You paved the way
In this lie you made me discover the truth
Now go to sleep
The requiem is over
The curtain can fall
Hail and farewell

Close Shut The Jaws

CLOSE SHUT THE JAWS
Your deeds gave birth to shadows
Shameless lies of a dying world
This deformation bound you for punishment
Muster the living, open the gate
Bring forth oblivion
Call on us, we wait
I'm taking your life, I'm taking your soul
I've condemned this world you know
This fire burns inside me
But it can't do any harm
I know what is the fate of mine
This fire burns inside me
But it doesn't burn through
On this battlefield it's me and you
Conjure the sin
Come bow before us
You summoned us, now enter your nightmare
Trust in your evil, smothered in hate
Brought forth oblivion
Now it is too late
Now watch your world die
Your race devoured by flame
You had a choice, your choice was poor
Close shut the jaws of oblivion
Atrocities unknown
Taking you lives and taking souls
Hate filled eyes from a world beyond
Lies condemned this world you know
This fire burns inside me
But it doesn't burn through
On this battlefield it's just me and you

Home Of The False

HOME OF THE FALSE
We return
The forlorn kin
There's not a place
Deep enough to hide us in
Another night
They whisper in
Tell me mother
Do you hear them call
Your mind and body corrupted made you
Dispose the fleshful truth
Never have lived
Deprived of life they were
Victims they were
Broken and scorn
Hidden in faith from lust
Carnal sin
I have seen
Their bitter end
Agony crept from within
Mother you damned your soul
When you cast us
In this hole
Whisper, whisper you shattered child
Your mother's lust left you defiled
Brace the bottom without a sound
Where water lies you can be found
Feel the darkness inside us
Fear and anger from ages before us
Show him the path that he must walk on
You'll find the truth in the home of the false
Yes, there's a hunch within me
Something draws me near
The feeling in my gut
I cannot not follow
Thrown into a pit so black
Bodies crushed defiled
But there is one that knows
I have seen
Their bitter end
Agony crept from within
The enemy within these walls
Drawing close
Show no fear
Far was the sign
But in my mind
The picture was forming
Oh within this well
A doorway to hell
The picture's deformed
Feel the darkness inside us
Fear and anger from ages before us
Now light the path, illuminate the hole
And venture the home of the false
