1. SINCERE

Is it us or them?

See the light they lit for us all
Just to show how perfect we are
'Cause we are slaves of these modern times
Where we all demand to be stars

They're feeding us to the hounds

Time goes fast and life moves away
There's no time to turn it around
And everyone who's born in our time
Is programmed to take up their part

They're keeping us underground

You wanna be someone with self-respect
For the "likes" you chase: they don't mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you'll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they're telling us are the rules

Play your role in this modern farce
Feed your thirst for stardom and pride
But be aware the truth won't erase
And you are the seeds that you plant

In shallowness we all drown

Are you here? Are you real?
Do you reflect on the water?
And you pretend that you matter
Setting a price on your thoughts

Is it life: to conceal genuine value of others?
Selling your heart for a dollar?
Wearing your greed as a crown?

You wanna be someone with self-respect
For the "likes" you chase: they don't mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you'll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they're telling us are the rules

For the "likes" you chase: they don't mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you'll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they're telling us are rules


2. UNBREAKABLE

Sent to cleanse the untamed
In the name of the sacred flame
For the greatest of harms
Is to let others stay fallen
Holy preachers arise
Persevering to heal despise
For our God gives us right
To burn unholy empires

As the maker unfolds your lies
And the covenant follows
For the father of the restrained
We have to pray

I need something to believe
Outside the world is dark
But we are cursing the sun
I need something to believe
We're marching as the army of the unbreakable

Steering blind for our cause
In opposition of who we are
As we fearlessly act
Blessing the savage with fire

We're a motherless child
Finding shelter in the divine
In a guilt trip to cleanse
Our unholy desires

Will the shadows open up for you to see?
That the spirit should command your senses
To deny it is to cast a holy creed
No existence can be worth when faithless

I need something to believe
Outside the world is dark
But we are cursing the sun
I need something to believe
We're marching as the army of the unbreakable

(Unbreakable) Unbreakable
(Unbreakable) Unbreakable!
(The army of the unbreakable)
(Unbreakable) Unbreakable
(Unbreakable) Unbreakable
(The army of the unbreakable)
(Unbreakable) Unbreakable
(Unbreakable) Unbreakable
(The army of the unbreakable)


3. VIOLENCE

Love is standing on the edge
Wandering the unknown
And for once…
Escape from the hollow

You’re bleeding out your bitterness
Watering seeds with blood
You´re harvesting dust
And hunger will follow

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

Turning fondness into pain
Tenderness is a ghost
Ovеrwhelmed
By menacing shadows

You’rе wearing a sadistic grin
Whispering words of trust
Mouthful of scorn
That cannot be swallowed

…But child in the night
Silence is coming
And you will repent your thoughts
Away from the light
Nightmares are numbing
And no one can hear you call

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

With a little bit of violence


4. FORTRESS

Lightning up your path
To envision how you might
Carry on standing on your feet then coming 'round

What is it you want
To feel whole and satisfied?
What's the aim? What is the objective of our lives?

Understand, why are you here?
Life only gives us one chance
Can you see, what it takes to embrace peace?

As we search for an answer
We are grieving for a loss
And we bleed into others
While we seek where we belong

But we keep pounding our head against the walls
Expecting that somebody elsе would make us whole
But only you can decidе to change the course
And face the end in peace without any remorse

Glorifying lies
Building monuments of trash
To ensure
Nothing worth defending could reach out

Covering our eyes
Is a part of who we are
To ignore
Only helps the rich prey on the poor

As we search for an answer
We are grieving for a loss
And we bleed into others
While we seek where we belong

But we keep pounding our head against the walls
Expecting that somebody else would make us whole
But only you can decide to change the course
And face the end in peace without any remorse


5. HOLLOWED

Come to me
Hold me close to your side
'Cause I still depend on your hurting words

Talk to me
Ease my need to be heard
Choke this flame that is burning our home

Are we strong enough to move on
From this never-ending loneliness?
Will we find the will to find hope?
Will our demons soon be laid to rest?

'Cause we're nothing but a shadow
Nothing but a shade
Nothing but a shadow
Nothing but a shade

Promise me
That one day when you're done
You will cut out this thorn from my heart

Because both of us are searching for a reason
A clue on why we have to carry on
So tell me why it feels like it is treason
To leave our home

'Cause we're nothing but a shadow
Nothing but a shade
Nothing but a shadow
Nothing but a shade

Time does nothing but help us heal
Still nothing will ever be as real
Nothing but a shadow
As the times we had
And that has now left our lives

Time does nothing but help us heal
Still nothing will ever be as real
Nothing but a shadow
As the times we had
And that has now left our lives


6. MEMORIAL

Stand up straight for the idols’ anthem
Raise our flag and don’t dare to run away
Fight like warriors become the reaper
Killing to keep them in line

When your life is a device to harvest concern
Don’t you tremble
Death will only take a minute

When the war is part of you
Everyone you love will be abandoned
No matter what you do
While the warrior is alive
Kindness and remorse will be deprived
The past will be a liе

Bite your tongue and obey your lеader
Troubled paragon swallowed by earth

When the war is part of you
Everyone you love will be abandoned
No matter what you do
While the warrior is alive
Kindness and remorse will be deprived
The past will be a lie

…Memories control your worn soul

Memories hurt us all still we’ll never surrender
The bottle becomes your home and the gun is all you can hear
And if you pretend to save us from our intentions
The scars will remind that pain is a passage we’ll have to cross

When the war is part of you
Everyone you love will be abandoned
No matter what you do
While the warrior is alive
Kindness and remorse will be deprived
The past will be a lie


7. INCENDIARY

Your time will come
Your doom is pending
For no one can remain untouchable
And there is no one to depend
No one to pretend for

Your eyes are set on your dominion
That falsely you are claiming to deserve
And there is nowhere to escape
No way to evade a war

We remember when the sun shone bright
Then your presence brought a pеrmanent shadow
'Cause the light of truth was covеred up
By a layer of deceit

The tyrant stares defiant at his feeble prey
But when the masses unite their strength
Revenge will lit the fire
Burning our past away
'Cause decency does matter more than wealth and fame
Arming the humble with spiteful rage
Enough to shield the venom
From a thousand vicious snakes

The screams are loud
The bombs are louder
But will can turn around the impossible
And it is too late to repent
Too late to save your soul

The gain is theirs, the struggle ours
The scale is rigged to benefit the wolves
And nothing satisfies their greed
They just keep taking more

"For we were born here to bleed and with our bloody hands we'll plant the seeds of what's to come, we'll reach the peace we need to live in harmony among ourselves, no matter the cost, no matter the loss"

We remember when the sun shone bright
Then your presence brought a permanent shadow
'Cause the light of truth was covered up
By a layer of deceit

The tyrant stares defiant at his feeble prey
But when the weakened unite their strength
Revenge will lit the fire
Burning all our past away

The tyrant stares defiant at his feeble prey
But when the masses unite their strength
Revenge will lit the fire
Burning our past away
'Cause decency does matter more than wealth and fame
Arming the humble with spiteful rage
Enough to shield the venom
From a thousand vicious snakes


8. TRAGEDIAN

Can we decide on how we want to live our lives?
Should we continue as we fall?
Are we expecting to be chosen by a god
Or are we trapped within these walls?

'Cause I want to believe
That compassion could be the cure
There is no one to turn to
When times are hard you're standing on your own

The winds are blowing harder
Yet we stand still
'Cause sometimes to try is not еnough

Right here we'rе going nowhere
No one believes
That happiness can't be bought

Walking together we can reach the mountain top
'Cause every step will make us strong
Even if others tell us we should be apart
Both of us know where we belong

And I do not believe
That your riches will make you whole
The image you abandon
Is part of you whoever you become

The winds are blowing harder
Yet we stand still
'Cause sometimes to try is not enough

Right here we're going nowhere
No one believes
That happiness can't be bought

Right here we'll stay
Right here we're standing tall all alone

The winds are blowing harder
Yet we stand still
'Cause sometimes to try is not enough

Right here we're going nowhere
No one believes
That happiness can't be bought


9. ICON

Do we still recall the ones who fought
Into the dawn for us
To bring reason and peace to our lives?

Every piece of freedom has been drawn
Using our heroes blood
Without asking for things in return

Never forget
Who's the enemy
As they try to make amends
Holding our chains
Deciding the fate of us all

They have betrayed
Everyone of us
And we're paying to this day
While they parade
The riches they stole from our land... from our land

We remember when you left our home
Carrying the heavy stone
Of protecting us from the unknown

And we wonder how you faced your fate
If you could feel the sun
And we're still waiting for your return

The battlefield consumed your blood
Still it hungers for more
And monuments of cold white stone
Celebrate our fallen sons

Never forgive
Our enemies
As they try to make amends
Holding our chains
Deciding the fate of us all

Never forget
Who's the enemy
As they try to make amends
Holding our chains
Deciding the fate of us all

They have betrayed
Everyone of us
And we're paying to this day
While they parade
The riches they stole from our land... our soil


10. VITALS

After you're gone
After you drifted away
To reach for the sun
Searching for a home

Well I'm not alone
For what it matters
I'm sailing for the cure
Chasing the dark
Drowning in stars

After you're gone
I'm dancing with the angel of the fall
My saviour is here within a call
To give me an answer to it all

Just say you're alive
Take this needle from my side
Say you're alive
Don't you play with my mind
'Cause I don't wanna feel no more
No, I don't wanna feel

After you're gone
Nothing really matters anymore
Blood keeps dripping on the floor
Slowly I'm losing control
Thе air I breathe reminds mе of the doubts I've had before

Just say you're alive
Take this needle from my side
Say your alive
Don't you play with my mind

Appear from the sky
Don't hold me in blindness no more

Don't leave me here alone
Or peacefully I'll join
'Cause I don't wanna feel no more
No, I don't wanna feel
