Take a Stand
04:05
|

These burned plains give no comfort
Nor does the smell of thy neighbour
Rotting away with a bullet to the head
Waiting in trenches
These pits of hell
You're waiting
Useless
Waiting in these pits of hell
Wake up
Take a shot and follow your believes
Explosions
like music to my ears
Giving the start of a new wave of chaos
While many fall
I still stand tall
Eradicate every single one
that threatens your loved ones
You're waiting
Useless
Waiting in these pits of hell
Wake up
Take a shot and follow your believes
Even the dark ages saw a new dawn
In these dark times there's a need for new minds
Cuz the sick spread their virus of souleating germs
It's time to take a stand

Days of Disbelief
03:53
|
|||
a shadow comes over this world
darkness fills our streets
No one to stop it
No one who cares
Evil rises to power
in these days of disbelief
As the people forget their values
Losing focus on what's just one step back
in their cycle of meaningless actions
Beating the ones down around you
to get on top of a mountain build on broken dreams
You'll fall
They'll tear you down
Some would call this karma
I call it justice
but it's none of my business
You get what's coming to you
Everything you do
You do it just for you
Only for your own sake
Like a serpent crawling through life
to stick a knife in my back
losing track
but you're a turtle on its back
you're stuck, no luck
on your side
so don't divide your chances
go all the way and pray
to get what you want
These are the days of disbelief
These are the days you won't try anything new
and you still expect the world to carry you
How can anyone be acknowledged without any effort
When they don't even deserve it
Inner demons struggle to get free
Taking the upper hand
While spirits fade
The undead going on without moving forward
Awaken the dreamers
Dreams are nothing if you're not prepared to fight for it
Awaken the dreamers
You'll have to make a stand
Resisting temptations
Don't take life for granted
Nothing is free
Take every chance you get
Resisting temptations
Don't take life for granted
Nothing is free
Take every chance you get

Angels Cry
04:01
|
|||
you're just barely here to take a look
not knowing what this world beholds
there is so much you don't understand
evolution is an illusion
we're all still primitive mammals
technology and machines are blinding your sight
you won't even begin to try
you lack the will to change
you lack a heart
the angels cry
while seeing you shaking hands with the devil
selling your soul for a dime
losing that spark
you're losing that spark
that makes you worthfull
that makes you willing to raise your fist
shake up, wake up
make this life count
make it count!
there is still hope, nothing is lost
time hasn't run out yet
but don't hesitate, it's time to act
be willing to have a change of heart
the angels cry
while seeing you shaking hands with the devil
selling your soul for a dime
losing that spark
open your eyes
see the wrong in your actions
a brave new world is waiting
if we're willing to give it a chance
so try
the night is darkest just before the dawn
but I promise you
The dawn is coming, you'll have to make your sacrifices
it's going to be a red dawn, so get ready
A red dawn rising

First Step
03:12
|
|||
you're walking on the path of the lost ones
not finding your way back to sanity
no faith, no passion
it's like you're lifeless
you're strolling lifeless in world filled with others who won't care
you're searching for an answer
a way to get through this life
expecting everything will fall into place
in a world of plenty, your heart turns cold
losing sight of everything that matters
stop this mediocre life, stop being such a follower
it's time to lead
time to lead your own life
believe in yourselves, you're the only one standing in your way
but you have to earn it, earn the right to have a legacy
you're searching for an answer
a way to get through this life
expecting everything will fall into place
in a world of plenty, your heart turns cold
losing sight of everything that matters
Well, answer this...
what do you need to succeed?
PERSEVERANCE
what do you need to be on top?
PASSION IN YOUR HEART!

Pain / Victory
03:26
|
|||
I was fading in the crowd
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
you can never rely on anyone
never give up and get rid of the darkness
If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail
so make every shot count
every step, every breath you take
The pain of today is the victory of tomorrow!
Strength comes from within
limitless
break through the walls
Doubt me, hate me, you’re the inspiration I need
I'll fall, I'll crawl
accepting failure
but never defeat
quiting's not an option
Do whatever it takes
You don’t drown by falling in the water
you drown by staying there (so get up!)
every step, every breath you take
The pain of today is the victory of tomorrow!
Strength comes from within
limitless
break through the walls
What you’ve got to do is to turn around and say – watch me.
I'll show what's needed to make the changes
A pint of sweat can save a lot of blood.
so make the efforts

Weight of the World
04:03
|
|||
drowning in our sorrow
suffering...
it's suffokating
there isn't anyone to offer a helping hand
you'll have to crawl your way through this misery
your feet are sinking deeper into the ground
and you realise your time is running out
time is slipping away
but keep your head held high
don't let your mind go astray
it's not your time to die
no one who's listening
no one who's even trying
a burden...
no one to see you crying
every dawn is getting colder
with the weight of the world on your shoulder
your feet are sinking deeper into the ground
and you realise your time is running out
time is slipping away
but keep your head held high
don't let your mind go astray
it's not your time to die
your screams remain unheard
you have a duty to fulfill
dark thoughts enter your mind
demons trying to break your will
never give in (never give in)
darkness embraces you
as you carry
the weight of the world

Dark Times
04:01
|
|||
The city's crawling with insects
like an ant hill
chaos all over
no one with an own mind but still running upstream
soulless, dreamless
brainless undead, feeding on each other
this community's going nowhere
standing still at a point where there's no evolution
no one to create new ideas, new believes
we're stuck in an endless circle
Tired of these dark times
one person's enough to make a change
it's time to raise the sword
the dark ages are over
enough of this selfpity
enough of this selfishness
you have to stand up for yourselves
but don't push back your loved ones
they're the backbone in your life
it's the rest that doesn't matter
so forget the mass of people that doesn't even have an own life
forget about them
soulless, dreamless
brainless undead, feeding on each other
this community's going nowhere
standing still at a point where there's no evolution
no one to create new ideas, new believes
we're stuck in an endless circle
this the end of an era
this is the end of it all
it's time for a new start
but we'll have to make it ourselves
let's all get together
and make this work
the end of an era
time for a new start
the end
a new beginning
the only way to end these dark times
is to follow your heart and create our own light
Tired of these dark times
one person's enough to make a change
It's time to raise the sword

Legacy
03:51
|
|||
awaken - rise my pride
feel it welling up inside
growing
will it be a blessing or a curse
the bringer of the end
the bringer of the apocalypse
or a new begin
every soul has its own path
but not all paths are a dead end
no one will stand in our way
to create our own legacy
so many around us live their useless lives
not realising
they're destroying the ground beneath them
from nothing cells form
and from nothing life always finds a way
from nothing it all decays
and from nothing this circle goes on
There's no time for weakness
we will rebuild
we will, we will conquer
we will prevail
awaken - rise my pride
in this cold world only the strong survive
but so many like locusts
devouring everything in their path
spreading, destroying
and not giving a chance to the little guy
When time has washed away the dust of our ashes
|

A New Dawn
05:04
|
|||
the moon is fading and darkness crawls back
while light finds its way to our hearts
a new day, a new beginning
let's start an era of progress
a new dawn creates new opportunities
let's make the best of it
and grab it with both hands
it's time to take control of your life
make every second count
before you end in oblivion
a new dawn creates new opportunities
let's make the best of it
and grab it with both hands
if you won't risk it to get burned, you'll let every chance pass
living in the shadows won't do
never give up
don't let them knock you down
never give up
just follow your heart and succeed
you'll try and fail
but glory is for those who won't give up
enough of this selfdestruction
stop falling into the abyss
make your life worthy, make them remember
failing is not an option
if you don't want to fade away
in this godforsaken place we call earth
although devils rule these lands
and people walk around
like sheep being herded to the slaughter
not knowing what's coming
and not wanting to do anything about it
this can't be the end
it's up to you now
make a change
be willing to fight
make sure the light prevails!
