1. The Mourning Demon

THE MOURNING DEMON

I saw the Earth burn down
Down to its poisoned ground
I saw the world in flames
The end of all its days
And since all life was lost
I have wandered ‘round the land
Dreaming about the times we used to have
Finally I believe it was hopeless
The fate of humanity was darkness

CHORUS:
Joy seems like a dream I never had
That vanished with the winds of misery
Men turned to piles of toxic waste
With their souls wandering in agony

The radioactive air…
The evidence of fear…
The remains of our past
Is what it’s left at last
The echo of your cries
And the yelling of despise
Became my dead soul’s lullaby
Finally I believe it was hopeless
The fate of humanity was darkness

(CHORUS)

I mourn for humanity
I mourn for the loss of sanity
As earth descends into emptiness
Our souls are lost into nothingness
As grief devours my senses
I realize I’m helpless
I felt the pain; it was insane
And earth becomes my hunter’s prey




2. Dreamer Redeemer

DREAMER REDEEMER

I walk the path of sorrow
This bitter, lonely road
My clockwork life devours
What lies within my grasp

A dreamer… redeemer…
I’m lying… denying…

No standards of behaviour
Were ever set for me
Confronting my perception
Will set my soul free

A dreamer… redeemer…
I’m lying… denying…
I’m facing… embracing…
I’m feeling… conceiving…

It looks like my memories are turning grey
They slowly fade away
All hope is weak if I don’t claim my rights today
It’s an endless trip to go and find
The truth inside
I need to read between the lines of what they say

A sacrifice may be the price
For all I want to feel
It might be wrong, but I don’t know
It’s still a way to see
The holy rules, the Serpent’s views
They both seem wrong to me
The only game that I should play
Is that of life today

I look around and see you clowns, you’re begging to believe
To the words of a deceiver
I’ll rise again, above the deeds that caused my agony
And make myself my own redeemer…
Redeemer… the dreamer…
Redeemer… the dreamer




3. Echoes in Vain

ECHOES IN VAIN

Shredding ourselves, shredding our own selves
With obligations leading to demise
Hating our life, hating our own life
‘Cause all our deeds still haunt our nightmares

CHORUS:
How does it feel to keep relying on values that cause your mind’s blinding?
Is it so hard to understand that misery and inertia go hand in hand?
Hand in hand…

The essence of life is hidden deep inside
Beyond the needs reflecting our greed
There’s no one to trust, but it’s our only chance
We gotta make a brand new start

(CHORUS)
(Echoes in vain…)
Don’t try to keep away… from the pain… all the way…
Do not distract yourself from your goals… and your dreams…
Keep on hoping, keep on fighting
All the demons that devour you




4. Facing the Mirror

FACING THE MIRROR

You thought it’s only a game
One of those that people play
You said it’s not that bad
But it turned your brains to mud
You understand that things got sad
But it’s late to turn the wheel back
So it’s time for me to make you see
All those things that make you shiver
The consequence of your distress
Is a mind that cannot function
It’s so averse that you confess
You’re impotent to live with ardour

CHORUS:
Oh, no! You’re wrong
Fake pleasures cannot soothe your soul
Oh, yeah! Today…
You gotta look for another way

Go on and find the truth which lies
Just below the surface of your life
And what you know might all seem wrong
‘Cause prejudice blinded your thoughts

(CHORUS)

Listen to what I say
Come on and seize the day
Open your mind and see
The answer’s in you and me

(CHORUS)




5. The Golden Hips of Dawn

THE GOLDEN HIPS OF DAWN

A long night down the stream of booze
My senses need a smoothing vision
She shakes the golden hips of dawn
And looks like a divine illusion

CHORUS:
I think I’m going mad
Or is it ‘cause I’m drunk?
I just stand still and watch her
Pretending I’m allright
Oh babe, you look so fine
I’m losing all my mind
Come on fox and shake it again
Shake it again, oh yeah

She moves in a charming way
And I can hardly realize it
That I am here, swallowing my pride
But she’s not mine to feel her

(CHORUS)




6. Consumer Patterns

CONSUMER PATTERNS

A credit card needed to save your day
You are only what you pay
Consume as much as you can today
Well, that’s the game you gotta play

CHORUS:
You’re running again to buy
Just pay the price and everything’s fine
The greater the debt, the more you gotta try
The endless consumption is your new way of life

The standards are set by ads and TV shows
And banks are there to serve your cause
No need to talk; no, don’t even try
As long as you’ve got enough to buy

(CHORUS)




7. Tripping on Revenge

TRIPPING ON REVENGE

I’m not the kind of man
That you could understand
I’m not the type who needs to be treated like a child

Like a nail on the wall
I will hammer your inferior soul
And the shame that you’ll feel
It will haunt your desire to live

Come on and take my hand
I’ll take you to a land
Where pain and fear lead the only way to love

Like a fly on the wall
I will crush your inferior soul
And the pain that you’ll feel
It will haunt your desire to live

Save yourself through domination
Realize humiliation
Face the sin of morbid pleasure
It’s your dreams’ unlawful closure
Closure, yeah…




8. Succubus

SUCCUBUS

Arouser of my inner wish
Lustful skin of milk-white flesh
Sugar curves of wet caress
[But] she looks like breathing fire

Seductive apparition
I lose all sense of friction
And slip through her in every way
The sin lifts me higher

CHORUS:
This typhoon of desire…
My fantasy’s reprisal…

Driven by carnal impulse
I’m abolishing reluctance
This is a lady straight from hell
A morbid queen of lust

A sexual obsession
Or infernal reincarnation
She makes my ardency come true
Her lips are spitting fire

(CHORUS)

Hey succubus
Well I’m your incubus




9. The Infidel Theme

THE INFIDEL THEME

Lies; All I see in your face is lies
Asking from me another sacrifice
Cries; Can you hear the children’s cries?
They’re begging to live a decent, normal life
Your so called saviours are copyright icons
Being sold by priests in expeditions of virtue
Burning inside, one more fucking time
Is my will to live by the rules I desire

CHORUS:
And you don’t know the meaning of sin
And you don’t care what is right for me
I’ll just hold on to my beliefs
For I’m the infidel, you see

Hate; All I feel about you is hate
When you force me to follow the ideals of today
Fate; How can I seize my own fate,
If you reject right away every word that I say?
You passive bastards, sick believers
Running around like rats in sewers
Burning inside, one more fucking time
Is my will to live by the rules I desire

(CHORUS)




10. Circle of Shame

CIRCLE OF SHAME

Beholding pain
And all the hate
I can’t see why we play this game
Trapped in a maze
Confusion reigns
Success, the drug of our age
The world keeps turning
The times are changing
But profit still is what you’re chasing
You try to live with dignity
But still you float in streams of misery

CHORUS:
Never ending game…
‘Till your final day
Never ending game…
You’re racing on a circle of shame

The morals of sin
Is the god you believe
And hypocrisy’s crowned as the virtue of being
Sex, money and greed
Visions on a screen
Pictures of Utopia, veiled with deceit
Constructing schemes
And doing dreams
But “real life” suppresses your will
You try to live with dignity
But still you float in streams of misery

(CHORUS)

You try to live with dignity
But still you float in misery
Constructing schemes
And doing dreams
But “real life” suppresses your will

(CHORUS)
