01. In Black

Love's hiding behind closed doors
While they want us to shed our blood
Hate boils up in angry flood

We're drifting in black against the stream of life
"Whose god is right? Whose god is wrong?"
(Like a) first line of the war song
But this one goes to love!

So bright, so serene
Love appears in my sacred dreams
Don't wake me up, now let me sleep
So bright, so serene
Love's alive in reality
Shrouded behind the desperate cries
Beneath cruel lies

Rope around our necks we'll await a moment of our doom
No mercy, no respect, they see our pain still they resume
We're drifting in black in the filth of humanity

"Whose war was right? Whose war was wrong?"
A song, that I won't sing along
But this one goes to love

[solo]

So bright, so serene
Love appears in my sacred dreams
Don't wake me up, now let me sleep
So bright, so serene
Love's alive in reality
Shrouded behind the desperate cries
Beneath cruel lies

"I won't cut down the bloody crops of your battlefields
I'm pissing on your royal family name!"

So bright, so serene
Love appears in my sacred dreams
Don't wake me up, now let me sleep
So bright, so serene
Love's alive in reality
Shrouded behind the desperate cries
Beneath cruel lies

02. Screaming Birds

Call of the wild and I will fall
Into the flames, rain and storm
It's beautiful depravity
Sweet destructive humanity

I hurt myself just to become whole again
Time after time, again and again
I drink myself to sleep just to forget for a while
Till the dawn shows all these injuries

Tear my heart off my chest
Feed it to the screaming birds
May the sun parch my corpse
With nothing I came with nothing I'll leave

Life's such a bitch and life's a whore
Misery we adore
Like state of decline, like a dream
On the waves of eternity

I hurt myself just to become whole again
Time after time, again and again
I drink myself to sleep just to forget for a while
Till the dawn shows all these injuries

Tear my heart off my chest
Feed it to the screaming birds
May the sun parch my corpse
With nothing I came with nothing I'll leave (my world)

[solo]

I propose a toast for sorrow, two for joy
And for the fellting moment misery feels easy

Tear my heart off my chest
Feed it to the screaming birds
May the sun parch my corpse
With nothing I came with nothing I'll leave

I propose a toast for sorrow, two for joy
And for the fellting moment misery feels easy

03. Unknown III

Drums fell silent in the bonfire of vanity
Sometimes it's hard to believe in humanity
One fine morning, endless pain
Came to a close with a painless end
Goodbye my friend

We played games of fire, we had our dreams
But sorrow of the unknown smoldered within
Heaven didn't stop raining, stars fell from the sky
You had your moments but you deserve more

Now you're in the unknown
Your name's written in stone
I just want you to known
You really had meaning

You know sometimes... sometimes I still
Get wrapped up in the feeling
I don't belong here

With aching soul just run away
It's better to be on the way than stay
How come I'm still here
Where the flames feels cold
And home doesn't feel like home

[solo]

Now you're in the unknown
Your name's written in stone
I just want you to known
You really had meaning

You know sometimes... sometimes I still
Get wrapped up in the feeling
I don't belong here

Now you're in the unknown
Your name's written in stone
I just want you to known
You really had meaning

You know sometimes... sometimes I still
Get wrapped up in the feeling
I don't belong here

04. Mere Dream

We create these heels and lands of dreams
On a ride on a sorrow's stream
And everything feels as fatal as it seems
Will I leave these tears behind
Will I lose time out of my mind
When spirits come and shake me up

We are all one
We are everything
In eternity where
Nothing ends
Nothing begins...

Death is only a lie
But no one tells why
Material dream makes us blind
Will I leave these tears behind
Will I lose time out of my mind
When spirits come and shake me up

We are all one
We are everything
In eternity where
Nothing ends
Nothing begins...

05. You

I see through your eyes, I feel your fears
I hear your heart beating, I've been crying your tears
You are all I have, all I fight for
I'll give you a little piece of moon
I'll stop the rain for you when there's monsoon
Into the death I was born, life I became
With you... with you

Ahhhh... With you!
Ahhhh... With you!

I'll leave my heart with you so, don't ever cry
If I go tomorrow it would never be goodbye
I won't be far away, for life goes on
If you need me just call

And I will come, I'll be there for you
Into the death I was born, life I became
With you

Ahhhh... With you!
Ahhhh... With you!

[solo]

I see through your eyes, I feel your fears
I hear your heart beating, I've been crying your tears
You are all I have, all I fight for
I'll give you a little piece of moon
I'll stop the rain for you when there's monsoon
Into the death I was born, life I became

Ahhhh... With you!
Ahhhh... With you!

Ahhhh... With you!
Ahhhh... With you!

With you..... With you!!!

06. Straight Up

Music & lyrics by Elliot Wolff
Lost in a dream
Don't know which way to go
If you are all that you seem
Then I'm movin' way too slow

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door?
How about some information?

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever? (Oh oh oh)
Or am I caught in a hit and run?
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together? (Oh oh oh)
Are you just having fun?

Time's standing still
Waiting for some small clue
I keep getting chills
When I think your love is true

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door?
How about some information? (Bitch)

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever? (Oh oh oh)
Or am I caught in a hit and run?
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together? (Oh oh oh)
Are you just having fun?

You are so hard to read
You play hide and seek
With your true intentions
If you're only playing games
I'll just have to say

Do do you love me ?
Do do you love me ?
Do do you love me ?
Do do you love me ?

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door?
Are you more than hot for me?
Or am I a page in your history-book?

I don't mean to make demands
But the word and the deed go hand in hand
How about some information? (Bitch)

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever? (Oh oh oh)
Or am I caught in a hit and run?
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together? (Oh oh oh)
Are you just having fun?

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever? (Oh oh oh)
Or am I caught in a hit and run?
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together? (Oh oh oh)
Are you just having fun?

Straight up now tell me (Oh oh oh)
Straight up now tell me (Straight up now tell me Wo ho)
Straight up now tell me (Straight up now tell me Wo ho)
Straight up now tell me (Straight up now tell me Wo ho)

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door?
Oh Yeah!

07. Let It Bleed

My star beyond the night take me away
Let there be light of eternal dawn... in the end
Don't you try to heal my wounds; just let'em bleed
Till the last drop and after it all I'm free, I'm clean

Ruthless and icy cuts wounds into my feet
Let 'em bleed
I'm numb, so numb, need to get away from here
My time has come
I've been loved, I've been hater
Now roses have faded

My star beyond the night take me away
Let there be light of eternal dawn... in the end
Don't you try to heal my wounds; just let'em bleed
Till the last drop and after it all I'm free, I'm clean

The end will be as in the beginning
Beautiful as the heartbreaking melody
Now, come here my death
My new beginning
My new hope

[solo]

My star beyond the night take me away
Let there be light of eternal dawn... in the end
Don't you try to heal my wounds; just let'em bleed
Till the last drop and after it all I'm free, I'm clean

08. End Of Tears

Land of death salutes you!
We're the breath of the wind, the highs and lows
We're the end, we're all eternity
You're welcome to the vale of crows

We're the freedom, the truth
We're the end of tears

Land of death salutes you!
Come, and I will show you your room
We'll wipe away your pains
We'll wipe away your fears
We are the end of tears

We are the end, we are all eternity
We are the end of tears
Land of death salutes you!
Land of death salutes you!

(Land of death salutes you!)

09. Dying Embers

It's the hour of fading light, embers of my life
Save me from myself
You touched the fire and took it out of me
The flame is gone for all eternity

Nothing can hurt me, I'm safe within your grace
Whatever comes our way you will protect me
You gave me something more precious than this life
You touched the fire and took it out of me

After all I still believe in life and blood relation
I know I'm drained of both
Now it's all the same to me
I'm safe in isolation surrounded by your love

With a silent whisper you came from the dark
Left me with splinters of my shattered heart
With a silent whisper you came from the dark
Left me with splinters of my shattered heart

After all I still believe in life and blood relation
I know I'm drained of both
Now it's all the same to me
I'm safe in isolation surrounded by your love

After all I still believe in life and blood relation
I know I'm drained of both
Now it's all the same to me
I'm safe in isolation surrounded by your love
