Lyrics


1. PRICE TO PAY

The price I have to pay is high
But it is the only reason for my existence

I watch myself falling into the deep
The only thing I can trust now are my senses

Is it still possible to stop me now
From causing pain and despair?
Asking myself whether it's right or wrong
To fulfill this purpose I’ve been given

The price I have to pay is high
But it is the only reason for my existence

Looking for a way out of this situation
Trying to deny what I really am

My mission is my identity
I have to be quick and efficient in what I do
Could I have been replaced by anyone
Being just one of many?

Can I find deliverance
In the suffering I‘m causing?
Fulfillment seems so close
Death seems so unavoidable

Can’t no longer weigh up between right and wrong
I have to do it now
Becoming dispensable if I don’t
I do what I was made for

The price I have to pay is high
But it is the only reason for my existence
I know it may be wrong
Did I have another choice?


2. WORLD IN ASHES

When the fire burns for hours
When the fire claims for more
And the flames high like towers
No escape anymore

Your pain in silence
The heat of violence
The world’s in darkness
The scream of silence

And your skin starts burning
Your body is not strong enough
You try to fight, you try to run away
You gonna die anyway

Your pain in silence
The heat of violence
The world’s in darkness
The scream of silence

And you’re expecting more
But it knocks at your door
It takes your soul

The world is in ashes now
And every building goes down
It’s a dangerous place - full of disgrace?

The crime of an innocent soul
Is burning in a hole
Embracing her death – so strong and painless

Your pain in silence
The heat of violence
The world’s in darkness
The scream of silence

And you’re expecting more
But it knocks at your door
It takes your soul


3. THE PROMISE

This is not what I wanted
Not what I've been promised
I've been waiting for so long
Now all my hopes are gone

I knew it from the start
I never had a doubt
It all seemed too good
Way too good to be real

Left in this deserted land
I wander through space and time
Looking, looking for something
For something I cannot find

It's time to set sails
I have to get away
Drifting with the flow
Down the river of broken promises

Left in this deserted land
I wander through space and time
Looking, looking for something
For something I cannot find

Left in this deserted land
I wander through space and time
Looking, looking for something
For something I cannot find

You promised me this
You promised me this


4. DANCING ALL ALONE

Our lives turn in circles
No matter what we do
Everything stays the same
No reachable higher purpose
We always end up
Back from where we started

Our paths mostly lead through darkness
Wasting time hoping that we’ll be enlightened
Every deception grows us colder
We are hollow souls growing older

Poisoned minds
Infected by the coldness
Tortured souls
Greeding for caresses
Restoring the loss
We turn to stone
Realizing that we’re dancing
Dancing all alone

Are there ways out of emptiness
The only thing we share is loneliness
Death is all you ever earn
From your scars you need to learn

Poisoned minds
Infected by the coldness
Tortured souls
Greeding for caresses
Restoring the loss
We turn to stone
Realizing that we’re dancing
Dancing all alone


5. STAY

You are our steady companion
And never move from our side
But are you real or another invention
Of our twisted minds?

Time passes by
Don't look behind
If we only could stop
Stay for a while

We used to be young and rebellious
And did not care at all
Now we're in a hurry situation
To find love and perfection

Time passes by
Don't look behind
If we only could stop
And stay for a while

Isn't it ironic that our lives
Are driven by fear
But in the end it all just
Fades to ashes and dust

Time passes by
Don't look behind
If we only could stop
Stay for a while


6. RAVEN'S FIGHT

No weapons, no souls, no memories
Just fear and dead bodies and black trees
I’m so devastated behind these bars and walls
I’m a prisoner in a miserable world

I seed the blood in the field
And my intention is revealed
'cause I condamn you to shed blood
And blood and murder

Millions paid with their senseless lives
Instrumentalized for my sinister purposes

And our life for the grateful ones
And the fight waits for us
And the fight waits for us

When your soul dies
The lies you lived
They will remain
In what fight, what war am I?
Tell me friend, tell me why?
When you die for the lies, you’re dispraised

And the fight of the raven
Claims for bodies and for souls
And the fight of the raven
Claims for bodies and for more

Murder
Blood
Lies
Memories

When you live for my lies
You gonna die many times
For crime, for assassination
I gonna rape this fucking nation
What a crime? It’s wonderful
What a splendid goal

Murder
Blood
Lies
Memories

And the fight of the raven
Claims for bodies and for souls
And the fight of the raven
Claims for bodies and for more
