Soulless, black-eyed razorblade-tooth bite You smell the blood leading your way to the wounded Feast on the weak! The tears we cry are the salt you need to survive Draggin’ down what used to build you up You´re no messiah You wonder why you´re going under Keeping up your crown You’re You’re the King of your world But we won’t bow down to you No we won’t bow down! Forcin’ your teeth further into our skin Rip it all apart, take over everything We won’t bow down to you anyway Yeah, you are not our king You are just an endless nightmare Feast on the week! We starve, you stuff and stuff and stuff until there’s nothing left Feast on the week, you make me sick! Draggin’ down what used to build you up You’re no messiah You wonder why you’re going under Keeping up your crown The war against yourself is endless You’re fighting, losing all your chances You fall down to your knees Now beggin’ to please Bow out of your war and Fight nevermore Draggin’ down what used to build you up You’re no messiah You wonder why you’re going under Keeping up your crown Draggin’ down what used to build you up You’re no messiah You wonder why you’re going under Keeping up your crown You’re the King of your world But we won't bow down to you No we won't bow down!

And now the torn black flag is waving in the Never-ending breeze And one more day One more day on this old ship The wind is right Right to raid until dawn I’m the one to decide Yeah, the Captain decides Who will live And who will die We will make you feel at first-hand How it’s like to walk the blank And when your cold body sinks down Creatures will come to watch you drown Fear in their hearts Fear in their heads All this blood that we have shed Fear in their hearts Fear in their heads While the white sails turn to red All these lost souls are setting sail Spreading fear over the seas like a bride’s black bloodshed veil No rules upon the seven seas And now the torn black flag is waving in the never-ending breeze We ride the waves like a wild horse And hoist the Jolly now once more Cause I decided that you will die Fear in their hearts Fear in their heads All this blood that we have shed Fear in their hearts Fear in their heads While the white sails turn to red All these lost souls are setting sail Spreading fear over the seas like a bride’s black bloodshed veil No rules upon the seven seas And now the torn black flag is waving in the never-ending breeze You will drown in the depths of sea You will drown in the depths of sea We will haunt you, we will haunt you We will haunt you, we will haunt you We will haunt you, we will haunt you All these lost souls are setting sail Spreading fear over the seas like a bride’s black bloodshed veil No rules upon the seven seas And now the torn black flag is waving in the never-ending breeze

I followed all the promises you made Never showed you any kind of resistance I thought you would wake up and start realizing So sick and tired of this - I never told you Waking up from sirens screaming in my head They try to make me stop believing Time has come to deny Even though I burn with you Now the silence in my head is getting louder ‘Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up, oh oh Destroying everything I used to be proud of Out of, out of control Take all that you want from me Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up on us I swallowed all the stories you made up Never claimed anything you should have given me You nearly died, survived but did not change So you make me a faithful son to no one Waking up from sirens screaming in my head they try to make me stop believing Time has come to deny Even though I burn with you Now the silence in my head is getting louder ‘Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up, oh oh Destroying everything I used to be proud of Out of, out of control Take all that you want from me Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up on us You have been what I thought was a loving man But I don’t understand this war we’re in You have been what I thought was a loving man But I don’t understand this war we’re in I tried it for so long You never listened, you never learned A grown man full of regrets Maybe in the end we’re not that different Now the silence in my head is getting louder ‘Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up, oh oh Destroying everything I used to be proud of Out of, out of control Take all that you want from me Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up on us Now the silence in my head is getting louder ‘Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up, oh oh Destroying everything I used to be proud of Out of, out of control Take all that you want from me Cause I’m giving up, now I’m givin’ up on us

You’re always talking ‘bout thunder, going under Let us pretend it’s forever, now or never Or are you trying to leave me here? Is it really all that is left? Is it really all that I have? Is there anybody to catch me? I can’t take a breath To tell you what you wanna hear Tell you what you wanna hear What you wanna hear This is everything that I can’t hold back I’m gonna leave behind this home of regret I know, I know I may get lost on this track If you don’t let me go, I’ll break it I’ve always been a believer and a keeper I keep on diggin’ deeper ‘til it’s over Until I’m losing ground Is it really all that is left? Is this all that I have? Is there anybody to catch me? I can’t take a breath To tell you Tell you what you wanna hear What you wanna hear This is everything that I can’t hold back I’m gonna leave behind this home of regret I know, I know I may get lost on this track If you don’t let me go, I’ll break it You know I’ll never turn my back, no ‘Cause I know what this is all about I know, I know I may get lost on this track If you don’t let me go, I’ll break it You owe me nothing at all And I know Someday I’ll fly back to you And I hope That there’s a place for my heart in your hands This is everything that I can’t hold back I’m gonna leave behind this home of regret I know, I know I may get lost on this track If you don’t let me go, I’ll break it And all I’m trying is to get things alright But if I can’t make it, I’ll break it This is everything that I can’t hold back I’m gonna leave behind this home of regret I know, I know I may get lost on this track If you don’t let me go, I’ll break it

I find myself buried in dust The road that I’ve chosen I’ll follow ‘til I get lost But with a whisper in my ear Echoing forever and ever and ever It is still not and never too late Will I ignite myself or drown in shades? Those endless tries, I’m tired of Holding on to all the things we lost Into the fire Into the fire Lost track, I fell behind I almost slipped out of sight And the worst was I felt fine Yeah with a clear voice in my head Now knowing forever and ever and ever It is not yet and never too late I will ignite my skin and burn the shades! Those endless tries, I’m tired of Holding on to all the things we lost Into the fire Into the fire Those endless tries, I’m tired of Holding on to all the things we lost Into the fire Into the fire Just let it burn Into the fire Into the fire Into the fire Into the fire Those endless tries, I’m tired of Holding on to all the things we lost Into the fire Into the fire Those endless tries, I’m tired of Holding on to all the things we lost Into the fire Into the fire

Down Below 03:59
I gave you everything I got But it was not enough To make you stay Out of your own prison On and on we’re driftin’ down below Though we are expecting nothing more How did we make it all the way down here How come we can’t get out It’s gonna take a lot Black and grey is all we see Losing the feeling, no time for healing Captured in this hell To live and die inside this curse Is nothing to keep, it’s time to believe in What we got in us I know I did lose you again I lost myself this time So torn apart Beggin’ for one more chance Now In this bottleneck we’re caught No chance to fight this illusion, no How did we make it all the way down here How come we can’t get out It’s gonna take a lot Black and grey is all we see Losing the feeling, no time for healing Captured in this hell To live and die inside this curse Is nothing to keep, it’s time to believe in What we got in us I lost you again While trying not to lose myself One more time Lost you again While trying not to lose myself One more time Lost you again While trying not to lose myself One more time So I’m sitting here again and all alone With all the thoughts and the fights on my mind Wishing I could bring an end to all this pain I tried so hard and all I got was rejection Just a shadow of myself now in the mirror Tired eyes, aggressively slim Forever taking pills, forever taking drinks So sick of me, but even sicker of you Black and grey is all we see Losing the feeling, no time for healing Captured in this hell To live and die inside this curse Is nothing to keep, it’s time to believe in What we got in us

So bright I hope to be more than just a line No memory of what I left behind Tide has come and washed away Left the shore bright as the day This is the start of something new and I Can feel my heart beating strong tonight Tide has come and washed away Left the shore bright as the day The stories that we write Fill them with new lines Never look back over you Never look back over me too Those pages can’t stay white Fill them with our bright colors With colors so bright I’m stuck so long in black and white and grey Carry on casting off my bay Tide has come and washed away Left the shore bright as the day This life is waiting to begin Colors keep shining through my skin Tide has come and washed away Left the shore bright as the day The stories that we write Fill them with new lines Never look back over you Never look back over me too Those pages can’t stay white Fill them with our bright colors With colors so bright We are the silence that needs to be heard We’re in the possession of all that we earned And now we’re the pages that need to be turned We are the silence that needs to be heard The stories that we write Fill them with new lines Never look back over you Never look back over me too Those pages can’t stay white Fill them with our bright colors With colors so bright (so bright)

Our Destiny 03:45
Your legs are shaking And your overwhelmed by all those feelings going on inside your head You’re moving faster You’re realizing that you’re the one to make your life worth living You start to understand You need to leave this place Don’t waste another second Just find your breathing space It’s not selfish to follow your heart A guidance, a course Set sail now! We are not just a pawn of our fate We will choose, we will choose our destiny Aiming high never losing our faith ‘Cause we know in the end everything will be alright Body’s shaking Body’s aching But it never felt so fine To keep on moving Is what we’re choosing ‘Cause we know in the end everything will be alright The world keeps turning Although you try to catch the train of time You used to be the one to stand in line Keep burning down these bridges You’re better off alone Tear up the map they gave you Look up into the sky It’s not foolish to follow the stars A guidance, a course Set sail now! We are not just a pawn of our fate We will choose, we will choose our destiny Aiming high never losing our faith ‘Cause we know in the end everything will be alright Body´s shaking Body’s aching But it never felt so fine To keep on moving Is what we´re choosing ‘Cause we know in the end everything will be alright We are not just a pawn of our fate We will choose we will choose our destiny Aiming high never losing our faith ‘Cause we know in the end everything will be alright Dance it out, never mind Just leave everything behind This is our time No more waiting in line Shake it off, don’t look behind ‘Cause we know in the end everything will be alright

The path we used to walk now turns into a dead end The pictures that we took are slowly fading Waiting for someone to cut the chokers that kept us from breathing And stay away from their lies that lead to early graves No mercy for the ones that build insanity We gotta end, we gotta end this masquerade (end this masquerade) No escape for those who killed humanity You better run, you better run before it’s too late The values that we lived have been forgotten The cure we used to take now starts to break the backbone Push it back, crush these lies and sing this song with us Searching for something to feel awake and make us stop sleepwalking No mercy for the ones that build insanity We gotta end, we gotta end this masquerade (end this masquerade) No escape for those who killed humanity You better run, you better run before it’s too late Now it’s time to stop this masquerade Now it’s time to end this madness Now it’s time to stop this masquerade Now the time has come While the insane rise we’re gonna close the gates Let them voices fall silent, ‘cause there’s no escape No one’s screams will be heard down here, we’re Hiding behind this one big masquerade Now it’s time to stop this masquerade Now it’s time to end this madness Now it’s time to stop this masquerade Now the time has come No mercy for the ones that build insanity We gotta end, we gotta end this masquerade (end this masquerade) No escape for those who killed humanity You better run, you better run before it’s too late No mercy for the ones that build insanity We gotta end, we gotta end this masquerade (end this masquerade) No escape for those who killed humanity You better run, you better run before it’s too late
