1. VISIONS OF ARMAGEDDON

Waking up to a sound of grinding noise
Take a glance at the horror at your world
We have reached the point where we don't walk back
Turn around, see the crowd and hear the people cry
To the melodies of the crushing wheels
Put them in the lines and never look back

The strongest of all will survive
Mentally we've been pushed back in time

The boy who cried the wolf too many times
The one that never got the help in time
We're the same boy screaming for mercy
Let the hammer fall down on the people
Let the scythe reap what you've sown
We're the weed that’s being cut so slowly

Even the strong ones won't survive
Men will feel the wrath upon their skin
I've read the holy book so many times
I've seen apocalypse come down our way

Visions
Of armageddon in my eyes
Sure signs
Of decadence in your lies
Visions
Of blessing and remorse
Sure signs
World turning worse

No one knows what my dreams are
Visions of madmen?
No one tells what my dreams are
Visions from madness
No one knows what my dreams are
Visions of madmen?
I know what my dreams tell me
Visions of armageddon
No one knows what my dreams are
Visions of madmen?
No one tells what my dreams are
Visions from madness
No one knows what my dreams are
Visions of madmen?
I know what my dreams tell me
Visions of armageddon

Were still alive, breathing fine and feeling good
Just like a good believer should
What is this blasphemy that I see
The holy book that told me how to live
The holy hand that guided me through pain
Was my life a sacrifice
In vain

And now all the weak ones survived
I feel the fires of hell burning my soul
I've read the holy book so many times
No armageddon coming for our lives!

Visions
Of armageddon in my eyes
Sure signs
Of decadence in your lies
Visions
Of blessing and remorse
Sure signs
World turning worse


2. LADY PAIN

Look into my eyes when your bones crack
Never run away, never fight back
She sees the pain, she hears you scream
Never had a go, never this rough
Never seen a girl, never that tough
You call for god, but he ain´t here

You´ve gotta know your limits
Forget the safeword, there ain´t none
No lady luck, just lady pain
If you ain´t hurt, then there´s no gain

Step down, into the dungeon
Give your soul to her
Kneel down, due to seduction
Lost your heart to her

You thought you couldn´t get any lower
You hear her loud scream: bend over
It´s time to crawl, it´s time for pain
Jusy when somebody´s about to pass out
She gives him little hope, loosens rope
You´ll never leave, without a bruise

You´ve gotta know your limits
Forget the safeword, there ain´t none
No lady luck, just lady pain
If you ain´t hurt, then there´s no gain

Step down, into the dungeon
Give your soul to her
Kneel down, due to seduction
Lost your heart to her

Lady dominates
Hate her or love her
Lady pain tonight
Love the feel and the agony!

Lady dominates
Lady pain tonight

You´ve gotta know your limits
Forget the safeword, there ain´t none
No lady luck, just lady pain
If you ain´t hurt, then there´s no gain

Step down, into the dungeon
Give your soul to her
Kneel down, due to seduction
Lost your heart to her

Yeah


3. FIGHT AGAINST TIME

Screams fill the night air
Killer’s on the loose
Like a sudden lit flare
Make me chase the goose
Fear is like a cancer
It slowly chews you out
Clock is ticking faster
Unknown victims whereabout

Maybe we’ll win
Maybe we'll loose
God is the only one that can choose

Fight against time
Law against crime
Fight against time
Death above life

Moon sheds the sole light
Wind howls around
I seek the last fight
Prepared to stand my ground
Finding clues and answers
Pressure starts to feel
Sudden is this distress
The pain feels so real

Maybe we'll live
Maybe well die
God is the only one that decides

Fight against time
Law against crime
Fight against time
Death above life

Fight against time!
Fight for your life!
Fight against time
Law against crime

Fight against time
Law against crime
Fight against time
Death above life


4. THIS LIFE

You´re entitled to your own opinion
You´ve been given a gracious gift
A free mind
You seem so dazed, you look disgraced
All those memories, you´ve found misplaced
What bounds you?

I´ve never known were I am from
I´ve never seen the world before
Fear bounds me
All this time I´ve wondered endlessly
Wether actions in this life determine
The next life

This life is a labyrinth
We seek the end
Though it ends the game

You won´t go through the same path twice
You´ll learn to fight
You´ll know what´s right

This life
Take pride

There´s inner strenght inside of you
Still you´re dependant for my guidance through
Your own life
When will those feet show the whole world their dance
You´re not in coma, nor in trance
We see you

It´s just too hard to rise up right before
They give me their final blow
Can´t you help?

I can´t force myself to see myself
You gotta do it, you´ve gotta help
I can´t rise
When my heart cries

This life is a labyrinth
We seek the end
Though it ends the game

You won´t go through the same path twice
You´ll learn to fight
You´ll know what´s right

This life
Take pride

You won´t confuse your mind with
Multiple sources
A narrow mind keeps you focused
On your own game
Not capable of creating your
Own opinions
The more you walk that way
The deeper you sink

This life is a labyrinth
We seek the end
Though it ends the game

You won´t go through the same path twice
You´ll learn to fight
You´ll know what´s right

The maze of life
The flow of time


5. STOOD MY GROUND

I've stood there waiting for so many times
Shells come in wailing high from the sky
I don't know if god is working with me
Maybe He's fighting here against me

Time took its toll and it ruptured my nerves
I seek no victory of this fight no more
I don't know if I am too brave to die
Or have I lost all worth fighting for

Let the blood rain down on me
In the mud just death I see
Shells dig our graves for us
We are here for gods to crush

Bullets and shells
Have all knocked me down
Life and death
Spun me around
I may have fallen
Then I have risen
I've always
Stood my ground

I'm counting the seconds as bombing starts
Hell on this earth carves its deep burning scars
I don't know if this has gone on for weeks
I’m not sure if I am alive or dead

Drowning by numbers in pools made by mud
Mix in the dead and the doomed youth's blood
I have seen death more than no one deserves
I've buried my comrades and cleaned out their guts

Let the blood rain down on me
In the mud just death I see
Shells dig our graves for us
We are here for gods to crush

Bullets and shells
Have all knocked me down
Life and death
Spun me around
Death has tied
Arms around me
Never let go
Till I rest in peace
I may have fallen
Then I have risen
I've always
Stood my ground

Everything I see, scorched burnt and black
Rain comes down pouring and washing my back
Between dead bodies I stay all my nights
The dugouts are stanching with death and disgust

I hear the whistle and over we go
Side by side we march little cattle to grave
Once again I stare death eye to eye
Once again I am the one that survives

Let the blood rain down on me
In the mud just death I see
Shells dig our graves for us
We are here for gods to crush

Bullets and shells
Have all knocked me down
Life and death
Spun me around
Death has tied
Arms around me
Never let go
Till I rest in peace
I may have fallen
Then I have risen
I've always
Stood my ground


6. GET BACK TO THE RING

Here the crowd chant your name
In the name of the evening game
In the spotlight ready to fight
Time for fun, nowhere to run

I ain't afraid of dying
My path is designated
Climb high or fall while trying
I've just gotta try or keep living a lie

On your knees
On your feet
Get back to the ring
Out of luck
Out of breath
Get back to the ring

Get back to the ring

In your eyes you see the ring
The fighter figure stares back at you
Evil eyes and crushing fists
Men alight, it’s time to fight

I ain't afraid of dying
My path is designated
Climb high or fall while trying
I've just gotta try or keep living a lie

On your knees
On your feet
Get back to the ring
Out of luck
Out of breath
Get back to the ring

Get back to the ring


7. LOVING ME TO DEATH

Whether I have gone
Or whether you have gone
Scorching is the sun
That tears leaves apart

A mighty storm that bends a tree
Forcing till it breaks in half
I am that, poor old tree
Shattering to splinters
Like a vine, that slowly grows
Covering vast spaces
Strangling me, pushing me
Squeezing me to pieces

I hate myself for loving her
All the pain she made to be
The icy rain that stings the skin
Warmer than her heart of ice

Loving me to death
You are killing me with love
Loving me to death
Love me out of breath

A crushing wave that roams beyond
Leaving devastation
That is love you distribute
Drowning in its wake
Volcano eruption that causes disruption
Changing people's lives
I am the ground that’s under the ash
Burning in molten lava

I hate myself for loving her
All the pain she made to be
The icy rain that stings the skin
Warmer than her heart of ice

Loving me to death
You are killing me with lose
Loving me to death
Love me out of breath

What am I after you have gone
Empty shell afraid of love
Who are you to say I'm lost
Who are you to say you care

Like the sand beneath the sea
Bottom of the ocean
I am there without light
Shivering alone

I hate myself for loving her
All the pain she made to be
The icy rain that stings the skin
Warmer than her heart of ice

Loving me to death
You are killing me with love
Loving me to death
Love me out of breath


8. ADASTRA

Over the mountains
Through the stars
Throw the laws of physics out of the window
Bottom of the ocean
Never too deep
We'll take you on a ride you'll never forget

We are
Adastra
We are
Adastra
We're burning up
So feed the flames

You thought it's over
It starts again
Burning through your body like raging thunder
The burning fever
Cuts through skin
You just can't get enough of this metal

We are
Adastra
We are
Adastra
We're burning up
So feed the flames

We are
Adastra
We are
Adastra
Were burning up
So feed the flames


9. THE SUN

Rise above the earth, just like the sun
Rose above the others. made water run
Brought the water pouring, over the nile
Prosperous

Create the life and reflect their whole lives
Everyday's a workers burden in the hives
Greatest of all the powers we have
Shilling life

The earth is like a child to me
Mercy I've shown all this time
Destroy what you've created
Unleash the warmth of motherhood

The all seeing eye
Bound up so high
Diamond of the sky
Eyes stare the sun

Shining as the hope to all of the land
Feeding offsprings from hand to hand
Set the pace of man for aeons to go
Firebearer

Golden solar warmth and devour
Hand in hand with water you go
Silent force so far from the stars
Sentinel

The earth is like a child to me
Mercy I've shown all this time
Destroy what you've created
Unleash the warmth of motherhood

The all seeing eye
Bound up so high
Diamond of the sky
Eyes stare the sun

Worshipped through this whole existence
Affecting mind and environment alike
Velvet lips that seal the anger
Touch your skin with solar temper

Caring after child and cattle
Shepherd of the universe
Silver lining golden center
Fired eyes burning free and wild

Made us once blind and showed our scars
Disappear at sight and appear too bright
Sinking to the deep blue sea down below
Vanishing

Center of the stars and burning away
Imperatively crucial needles to say
Controlling worlds without using force
Burning sky

The earth is like a child to me
Mercy I've shown all this time
Destroy what you've created
Unleash the warmth of motherhood

The all seeing eye
Bound up so high
Diamond of the sky
Eyes stare the sun

The sun
Sets down
The sun
Fades out
