Dead Sky Lullaby
06:58

|

Like a lullaby without melody
My mind is yours, my mind is yours to keep
Taste the poisoned water, muse about acclaim
Felt the traitor’s stab, long before the pain
Like a criminal without weaponry
My lies are yours, my lies are yours to keep
High speed chase, insidious machine
I will find a way to make you all come clean
Your cover’s blown, better run and hide
You can’t escape the evil eye
Full blown madness on the rise
Stick to your creed, I’ll stay with mine
Like a sadness beyond remedy
My sins are yours, my sins are yours to keep
Gather at the carnival, waiting for a ride
Trust your confidant, now let me be your guide
Like a warrior with no enemy
My life is yours, my life is yours to keep
Maven engineer of a fool’s paradise
I will come after you and make you pay the price
Dead sky falls, let’s go and steal the crown
Eden fades, see how they run around
Meet the minds behind a wasted revolution
Pick up the pieces of your own illusion
Dead sky falls, too late to come around
Eden fades, black rain is pouring’ down
Masterminds of meaningless confusion
Hypnotized by their dubious collusion

The Serpent's Here
05:32

Behind the screen
Ghosts inside my head
Somewhere between
The weakened and the dead
Cold blooded Romeo lost his phony grin
Too late to find the sacred love deep within
I’ve been all over the place, tumbling side to side
Against the grain, all in vain
Where abandoned misfits reign
Nothing will change, his eyes are set on you
No time to spare, the serpent’s here for you
Idle hands found new toys
Vultures laugh and liars rejoice
*But nothing changes, the serpent’s here for you
Petty crimes revealed
Cry wolf in a jealous rage
My lips are sealed
I’ll keep your secrets safe
Troubled alien got lost and ran out of road
I am the last one to come from a different mold
I’ve been all over the place, tumbling side to side
Against the grain, in vain, where abandoned misfits reign
Somewhere in between the weakened and the dead
The liars laugh and rejoice, idle hands found new toys
My lips are sealed and I’ll keep your secrets safe
The last one to come from a different mold
I’ve been all over the place, tumbling side to side
But I’m too late to find sacred love within

Blackguards Stand Silent
08:31
|
|

You know you’re not alone but the mirror glass is blank
Footsteps echo down the hall but no-one calls your name
Strangers live inside your mind and supervise your dreams
Speedy feet and buzzing noise end your beauty sleep
Now where do you go when the ground starts to shake?
Bite the hand that feeds you
And who do you deceive to do whatever it takes?
Over and over, again and again
A pack of hypocrites come to rearrange your face
Blackguards stand silent while your temple gets defiled
Open up those big eyes and glide to find your prey
Turn around as vertigo sets in
Now where do you go when the ground starts to shake?
Bite the hand that feeds you
Over and over, again and again
And who do you deceive to do whatever it takes?
Bite the hand that feeds you
Over and over, again and again
Where do you hide when night turns into day
Bite the hand that feeds you
Over and over, again and again
Who do you believe when the prophets lost their way
Bite the hand that feeds you
Over and over, again and again
You don’t know it yet but your brain is up for grabs
Minions come in numbers to serve it on a plate
Shaking hands with paranoia, dance the dance of death
Head spins way too fast to see the warning signs
Here they come, here they come now
Eyes getting bigger and bigger
Here they come, here they come now
Sound’s getting louder and louder
Forget about the red light, your savior’s dead and gone
Chased away by grifters and buried in the sand
Fight the incubus, squirming through the night
Try to stay away to save what’s left of your mind
Here they come, here they come now
Eyes getting bigger and bigger
Sound’s getting louder and louder
Your nemesis is here to drag you far away
Open up your mouth and let the games begin
Here they come, here they come now
Eyes getting bigger and bigger
Sound’s getting louder and louder

This house is someone else’s now
All animals are gone, and I move with the wind
Across the hollows and moonlit fields
Holding on to my ghosts, stardust and fantasies
Walk on, through endless light
Buried my broken wings deep in the ground
So walk on, forget the sleepless nights
All my last wishes been passed around
This house is someone else’s now
All memories are gone, love fades in the blue
Forgotten songs and long lost tales
Obey the time of the wolf, wasteland castaway

He Just Disappeared
06:28

|

I couldn’t sleep the other night and went out walking. Saw him across the street, called out his name but I don’t think he heard me.. He had dirty clothes, just cheap rags, a too smart for others but too dumb for your own good kinda look. People were avoiding him but he looked like he didn’t care.. . Always thought the most dangerous man is the one that doesn’t care anymore, you know!? Back when I knew him he was a legend, a survivor, always landing on his feet in some strange wicked way. So I ran after him, maybe he needed help or something, sure looked like it but when I got closer I saw he had some kind of wings on his back!?, weird stuff, not fancy white angel wings but uglier, brown and kinda broken…the ones that don’t work properly cause they’re too weak to carry you, like cockroach wings or something. Anyway he turned a corner and I followed and then it was like he just disappeared, you know, like, swept away, by the hand of god or some stupid shit. Disappeared, he just disappeared..

Follow The Unknown

I’m drivin’ blind on the winding road of bad decisions
Wasted years lost in the dark
When nighttime comes, close your eyes and hope for something better
Fade away in starless land
I travel light to escape your fateful visions
Shadows fall on twisted minds
So chase the sun with the lucky ones for years to come
It’s do or die for deserted hearts
Just let go, just let go
Running out of time, a split second is all we need
Just let go, just let go
Follow the unknown, an ever elusive mystery
Flaming towers fall, the beacon light died out, there’s no tomorrow
Mother shows the way in and out of afterlife, whispers of despair
Bloodless kings force young lovers to renew their vows for each other
Keep the sinners close to your heart, pick up the pieces and run for cover
Close your eyes and hope for something better
Fade away in starless land
I’m holding on to the demons hands and jump
Into the void where I’ll be safe
I travel light to escape your fateful visions
Shadows fall on twisted minds
So chase the sun with the lucky ones for years to come
It’s do or die for deserted hearts
You gotta just let go, just let go
Running out of time, a split second is all we need
Just let go, just let go
Follow the unknown
You gotta just let go, just let go
Running out of time, a split second is all we need
Just let go, just let go
Follow the unknown

The Losers (Bonus Track)
05:36

Have you ever wanted, someone you're not
But you look into the world, and you see what you've got
There's nothin' there, but brains and guts
Finally open the door, and then it shuts
Look to the center, and I’ll think you'll find
The people that are gettin’, they are blind
You changed the channel, and there's nothin' there
You weren't born pretty, and it isn't fair...
Here's to the losers
The substance abusers
To the rejects
All the imperfects
'Cause I think we're beautiful
You try for jobs but they say, you're strange
You're sportin' a style that, they call pain
So you get in trouble, and your brain is gone
You're crying out, but the words are wrong
Here's to the losers
The substance abusers
To the rejects
All the imperfects
'Cause I think we're beautiful
Yeah, I think we're beautiful
No matter what anyone says
I know you're tired, of being put down
And all the crap, that's said in town
But you're the person, that matters all the most
I raise my glass, and make a toast
Here's to the losers
The substance abusers
To the rejects
All the imperfects
To the retarded
And the broken-hearted
To the starving masses
And the lower classes
'Cause I think we're beautiful
Yeah, I think we're beautiful
No matter what anyone says
I think we're beautiful
Yeah, I think we're beautiful
No matter what anyone says
