1. THE OBLIVION

A lifetime ago or so it seems
Innocent, heartfelt, incomplete
The foul words and vicious themes
With no compassion and no retreat
In a dream with no law
I received the note and it gave the spark
On the moss I saw
The charcoal coat, your feathers shone in the

Dark
Are you dead or
Alive
Fly black woodpecker fly

The unclarity, The years to come
Filled with fear or hate to tame
My brittle heart, No place to run
The fiery passion of the lovers’ game
Time will fleet, I’m forlorn
And the days are gone, waning life I mark
As to die we were born
I believe I know, you will wait in the

Dark
Are you dead or
Alive
Fly black woodpecker
Fly
Are you dead or
Alive
Fly black woodpecker fly

I’m still obsessed by the one I love
The one I want to make mine
Before my solitude engulfs me
And the bird of the evenfall
Takes me to the oblivion

Dark
Are you dead or
Alive
Fly black woodpecker
Fly
Are you dead or
Alive
Fly black woodpecker fly


2. THE DEAD DON'T SMILE

The light has gone
We’ve killed the swan
The words left unsaid
The darkness widely spread
I’m like the mother of the infant child you bear inside
And you can’t provide

You jump off the deep end
I’ll pay the price
Bend once again now to your will, I must obey
This full inanity
Feeds my insanity
Agony, The road I roam leads me astray

There’s a place on the hill where I’m going
Every night to survive from the fight
To make a wish to the wind that is blowing
Knowing that two wrongs won’t make it right
If the face of a stranger can make your
Little heart feel again for a while
Give a chance for yourself: Heal the sore!
You’re still alive because the dead don’t smile
They do not smile
The dead don’t smile

The leap of fate
I have to take
The pain won’t abate
Unless I slay the snake

I’m barely safe and sound
In hate I nearly drowned
All the things you lied to me, You don’t recall
I need to dream again
Walk on now with the stain
Be proud of who I am. Say: I will not crawl!

There’s a place on the hill where I’m going
Every night to survive from the fight
To make a wish to the wind that is blowing
Knowing that two wrongs won’t make it right
If the face of a stranger can make your
Little heart feel again for a while
Give a chance for yourself: Heal the sore!
You’re still alive because the dead don’t smile
They do not smile
The dead don’t smile


3. THE OFFERINGS

Here underneath
The darkest northern sky
In wilderness I wail and I cry
When the longship
Sails to the barren shore
The frailest heart is ardent once more

Freyja
The offerings I gave to her
She did forget
But the battle isn’t over yet
Lay down your swords
The axe, the spear you hold towards
My bleeding heart that won’t run dry
My redhead warrior

From a distance
I see your smiling face
The cuts and scars that heighten your grace
The feast begins
and she will meet you there
The solitude and pain is my share

Freyja
The offerings I gave to her
She did forget
But the battle isn’t over yet
Lay down your swords
The axe, the spear you hold towards
My bleeding heart that won’t run dry
My redhead warrior
Redhead warrior, my redhead warrior
Lay down your swords
The axe, the spear you hold towards
My bleeding heart that won’t run dry
My redhead warrior


4. NOT MUCH MORE TO SAY

Light in dark folded
The pledge getting weaker
I’m failed, I’m dead
Pain when I’m breathing

The silent secrecy thus fatal
If I hold on to the past
The sand in the hourglass will run too fast
And I can see you’re not afraid
There’s not much more to say
Not much more to do for us today

Now who will fall
For someone like me
Hate you inflicted on
Hope with the signs, I dream

Did you take heed of my wishes?
Did you hearken to my heart?
Whatever I thought I could find does not exist

The silent secrecy thus fatal
If I hold on to the past
The sand in the hourglass will run too fast
And I can see you’re not afraid
There’s not much more to say
Not much more to do for us today
And I can see you’re not afraid
There’s not much more to say
Not much more to do for us today


5. FIVE TO SEVEN

(Instrumental)


6. WE WILL KILL'EM ALL

In a grey callous hole
An idle revel with fires
The celestial pole
Darkened by the pyres

Soon there’s no cure
A void in the ruins we find
No one is pure
In the treason of the mankind
End of the life
The death of your heart and your soul
Doom of the morality
As you will see

Deprave
The paradise enclave
End of the life
We will kill them all
We will kill them all

The malice is mere
The child of the shame and the doubt
The reign of the fear
One by one we play them out

End of the life
The death of your heart and your soul
End of the life
We will kill them all
We will kill them all
We will kill them all


7. THE THORN IN MY SIDE

Lie down on her bed
The siren calls
The sight would wake the dead
The strongest falls
This sad life I damn
My heart’s pierced with a pin
She is everything, I am
The worthless waste of skin

The ruins of my little life
Flash before my eyes
You are the thorn in my side
Rife affection in disguise
Shattered, broken is my voice
Kill me for I am done
I would never be your choice
I will never be the one

I cast no shadow
And disappear
The image won’t let go
I feed my fear
The siren is undressed
The darkness hides the sin
Beautiful maiden sighs blessed
I’m what the cat dragged in

The ruins of my little life
Flash before my eyes
You are the thorn in my side
Rife affection in disguise
Shattered, broken is my voice
Kill me for I am done
I would never be your choice
I will never be the one

I place the blame on me
Ashamed of my own face
There is no remedy
For this foul disgrace

The ruins of my little life
Flash before my eyes
You are the thorn in my side
Rife affection in disguise
Shattered, broken is my voice
Kill me for I am done
I would never be your choice
I will never be the one


8. NEVER SAY DIE

Dim the lights now
You’ll leave the stage
For the last time you will bow
Inside the golden cage
The pack you disband
They hate the things you’ve done
The hangman by the bar stand
Provides you with a gun

But I will never let you down
Or claim your crown
Give a smile that in the end is nothing but a lie
With every mournful note you play
My heart you slay
But all the same I am for you
Never say die

With the fools now
I won’t debate
The pointless fray anyhow
The haters gonna hate
My inspiration
The reason why I breathe
Even at your weakest
You wear the silver wreath

And I will never let you down
Or claim your crown
Give a smile that in the end is nothing but a lie
With every mournful note you play
My heart you slay
But all the same I am for you
Never say die

And I will never let you down
Or claim your crown
Give a smile that in the end is nothing but a lie
And I will never let you down
Or claim your crown
Give a smile that in the end is nothing but a lie
With every mournful note you play
My heart you slay
But all the same I am for you
Never say die


9. THE SEVEN

Let’s do the math
The envy and the wrath
Don’t cast aside
The sloth and the pride

Now
You must abide this ruthless ride
They will not hide

Desires’ emporium
The seven is their name
The seven rule the game
Desires’ emporium
You can’t have more
You have them all

You have to feed
The gluttony and the greed
The last but not least
The lust joins the feast

Now
You must abide this ruthless ride
They will not hide

Desires’ emporium
The seven is their name
The seven rule the game
Desires’ emporium
You can’t have more
You have them all
Desires’ emporium
You can’t have more
You have them all


10. PALE HEART

Fate broke the ties
Of the silver cord
One more demise
You can’t afford

The hopeless wrath
And the silent yearn
Placed on the path
For you to learn

Slow down pale heart
Sleep in peace
The dawn will come
The pain will cease

The meadows of
Silence in the mist
The mirth and love
Do not resist

The flock will rise
The starlings will return
To serene blue skies
With no concern

Slow down pale heart
Sleep in peace
The dawn will come
The pain will cease

Slow down pale heart
Sleep in peace
The dawn will come
The pain will cease
