1. THE DARKENING

We stand on the edge of an era
Soon a new time will begin
Those who can see and understand
Will call it the darkening

We have become indifferent
We have become so blind
Lost our love - lost ourselves
Live our lives in solitude

If you could see what I have seen
You were to know what might have been
A flower crumbled in your hand
Another failed attempt
And all that is to come
Is just the darkening of a sun

Numbness strikes - emotion fails
You cannot see the love you bleed
Obdurate urge which permeates
Degrade yourself to slaves of your desire

A sad crescendo strummed by fate
Another verse will be to late
A descant to what we've become
Will call the darkening of our sun


2. SADNESS

As I look into your silent eyes,
In search for the cause - forever

The cold river life, from source to the sea
Through valleys - over hills, fast and slow
A maze without sin, the never ending quest,
Dark walls of sadness - the edge of life

A desert of snow - meadows in bloom
The mirror is empty - tears in paradise

And I am drowning, drowning in your tears
And I hear the whispers of death calling me

Sadness, why must we die?

Your journey,
Fills my heart with pain
But I hope,
We'll meet again on day

Sadness, we have to die


3. INTO THE NAMELESS

Times ocean - so deep and dark
Diving into means facing truth

A dead hearts bleeding wound
Creating milleniums with blood
Morning is gone forever

We called the gods to ease our fear
And tried to forgive ourselves this way
So we took the sun away

Into the nameless
Undress the shadow
The mind no longer sleeps
And times never changed

Punish our innocence
I am guilty anyway
No more forgiveness
Awakening the centuries

I am to blame - for my dying voice
I am guilty - for being blind
Sentence me - for my sleeping mind

A fallen angel - conquered by faith
Disappears to darkness
The winds never change...


4.THOUGHTS

An endless process of time
To fulfil the dreams in your mind

Take a look - behind my eyes
At the weeping ground of my soul

Bring the light, into my mind
Let my dreams fly away
Give me salvation from the
Painful thought that break my heart

An endless process of time
To find the sense of your life

Fulfil my deepest wish
Shrouded in darkness, wrapped in silence
Give me back the bliss of being
Hear my cry for love

Unerfüllte träume - meine augen wie glas
Die trümmer der seele sagen mir nur eins
Es ist die liebe, die mein herz zerbricht
Die gedanken weinen - ich hasse mich

Life

Touch my soul and feel the end
Life, a painful process of time


5. EMOTIONS

I of pain and sorrow, live my life in the shadows
Of this world where all is empty
And love is but a bitter dream
...but a bitter dream

I've become a shadow, on the wall a black reflection
In this jail of memories burning, and love just hurts

My dead heart bleeds with silent screams
Emotions are sometimes hard to show
And every day I curse myself
For never showing how much I really cared
Life - pain, love - pain

All that I've lost can't ever be regained
The time I've wasted myself to you
You always cared much more for your own needs
And caged me in your empty feelings
You broke my wings I'll never fly again
Unless I find the strength to leave you
My solitude grows stronger with each day
A fallen angel for you pleasures

Unreachable to me you lie inside his cage
And when you see me I will hide my sorrow-face
My heart, my grief, my solitude - a love undying
Some day it all may fade away - emotional flatline


6. THE LITTLE HEAVEN

Let me die
In a dream of forgotten lands

And leave me be
In a world where your sun never sets

Your promised land
A desert so grey

Life?
Sometimes I would prefer to die


7. DREAMING YOUR GRIEF

I am dreaming your grief

Kill another man, kill another hundred
Kill another million, kill yourself

Show them grief - show them death

Shoulder to shoulder, fearless in fight
Dreams of victory, battle for pride

Once upon a war
When chaos reigns the fields
They are begging for mercy but
No one will ever give
Cause their lives are not important
And so they were killed
The stench of rotting flesh fills the air
As ashes fall from the skies
And when their bodies burn
you can hear their loved ones cry
The victims of war
Hurt by a deadly sword
Bleeding wounds
Never heal again

Fight for life - alone
Wait for the end to come
Now they seek for shelter
And they search for pride
Shoulder to shoulder, straight to the front
Believing in words, someone has told

Shoulder to shoulder, right side by side
Hallucination, of a clear light

Open the graves one more time
For someone lost his pride
Stars disappear in darkness
When wargods reign again

Shoulder to shoulder, with blood in the air
Fighting for something, someone has told

Shoulder to shoulder, with guns in their hands
Fighting for something, someone has told

And so they cried - lying deep in the mud
And so they died - drowning in a sea of blood

After all these years of nation tears
Deeply hurt by death, eternally depressed

A serenade in black minor, I dance
And I am dreaming your grief


8. CHAOTIC SEASONS

We climb the stars
And try to solve the quest of life
We look up to the sky
And ask for conquering universe one day

A spider creates a web - another fly is trapped
The birds are leaving - as trees undress

As I stand and watch the seasons
You asked for mercy, mother earth
I said I cannot give, for us it's time to take

Do we have the right to reign?

The superior human race
Playing god just for one day
Decay is punishments face
In chaotic seasons swept away

The surface covered in bleak concrete,
As the last day of mankind arrives
The sun sets between the smoke
Deformed children playing in dust

Oceans, cradle of life
Forests, lungs of earth

Oh enigma of life
So sweet her beauty
Endless joy
When walking through the garden
Like pestilence we grow
And like a candle we fade one day
Prepare to enter the worms
And dissolve to dust again

Like a slave - hurt too long
No escape - freedom is death

Those superior race - like gods they reign
Dancing on their grave - forced to die
Our slave will die - the casket is open now
We will die


9. SOMEWHERE SOMEONE DIES

In peace and tranquillity
Hear the waves far away
Give light to my days
With the glimmer in your eyes

Upon the hills
We reign like kings
In a spring of hope
The imperium of joy

Somewhere has a place to be
Someday times will change
Somewhere we will find our heaven
And somewhere someone dies

Fallen beauty when she cries
Another dream destroyed by fate

And the flowers wither a thousand times
But in her grief she can't recognize

She is falling
Like a leaf from a tree
Awaiting their heaven
On this pale autumn day

Somewhere has a place to
Someday times will change
Somewhere we will find our heaven
And somewhere someone died


10. THE END...BEFORE IT BEGINS

Silent glances, unknown feelings
Empty chances, unreal seemings

Hidden future, drowning faith
Depressed by culture, lonely stays

Forced to be ended, society demanded
By anticipationed progress, all in forsaken belief

Forced to be ended, society demanded
By mercyless norms, all without retreat

Feel the end before it…endless loneliness
Endless seeking, begin before the stars

Dark sides of life,
Reign upon all existance
Breathless seeking of unknown future
Destroys refreshing belief
In unexpected moments
Builds a wall of emptiness
Behind your reflecting eyes
