His name was night
A life of sin
A cruel man was he
His warning came from death himself
"My name is Night
I will come for you,
When your light fades away"
A life unchanged
By the Earth seduced
Death introduced himself
"My name is Night
I am coming for you,
Your light is fading away"
The years of pleasure
No longer they mattered
The suffering would never end
"My name... is Light
I am taking your place,
Your night will be longer than most"
**working on a picture of the angel of death...

Who are we
Love with shadows
Feelings for pictures
We don't dream of meadows
We dream of pictures
Live in the past
Fear for the future
We still stare aghast
At the present
Delaying the fight
Fearing the struggle
Toss and turn at night
Wishing for yesterday
Is is best to live life
With grey glassy eyes?
not a care of the strife?
No rest for the wicked
This battlefield was made
To test your strength and faith
It came to your aid
In your dark times
We ignore our life
Hiding in...
Feelings for pictures
We don't dream of meadows
We dream of pictures
Live in the past
Fear for the future
We still stare aghast
At the present
Delaying the fight
Fearing the struggle
Toss and turn at night
Wishing for yesterday
Is is best to live life
With grey glassy eyes?
not a care of the strife?
No rest for the wicked
This battlefield was made
To test your strength and faith
It came to your aid
In your dark times
We ignore our life
Hiding in...

The blade falls
Placed on the stage
But not the main act
Just 10 years of age
The blade falls
Bloodlust in the air
The crowd cheers
My worst nightmare
The future
The blades drop slowly
They creak and moan
They stooped so lowly
We tried to stop their reign
We'll be avenged soon
There will be worse sights
Under this moon
Old and new alike they die
The devil's hold
He promised peace
News this old
Yet so ignored
Empty shells
How could they be so stupid
They're own personnel hells
They will soon...
But not the main act
Just 10 years of age
The blade falls
Bloodlust in the air
The crowd cheers
My worst nightmare
The future
The blades drop slowly
They creak and moan
They stooped so lowly
We tried to stop their reign
We'll be avenged soon
There will be worse sights
Under this moon
Old and new alike they die
The devil's hold
He promised peace
News this old
Yet so ignored
Empty shells
How could they be so stupid
They're own personnel hells
They will soon...

The horse is named pain
From ore to silver
Only through the furnace
If the road is life
The horse is named pain
To see more of the mountain
You must start the climb
From ground zero
The light is not visible
Without the darkness near
You cannot be happy
Unless you've suffered life
The only one to blame for your pain
For your brokenness
Is you
Only through the furnace
If the road is life
The horse is named pain
To see more of the mountain
You must start the climb
From ground zero
The light is not visible
Without the darkness near
You cannot be happy
Unless you've suffered life
The only one to blame for your pain
For your brokenness
Is you

Peace and tolerance
Peace and toleration
Unofficial theme of the nation
What a fat lie
There will always be evil,
Darkness,
Pain,
Do they expect the demons to want their peace?
Do we sit by as a man is robbed in the street?
Claim to be uninvolved?
Are we to be bystanders?
Peace is not for us
You must fight in your own war
Soldiers unite, we fight
Justice is not peace
Justice
Is just
Unofficial theme of the nation
What a fat lie
There will always be evil,
Darkness,
Pain,
Do they expect the demons to want their peace?
Do we sit by as a man is robbed in the street?
Claim to be uninvolved?
Are we to be bystanders?
Peace is not for us
You must fight in your own war
Soldiers unite, we fight
Justice is not peace
Justice
Is just

My Frozen Heart
My cold hands
The pain inside
My pale skin
The useless lies
My dead eyes
Wounds fester inside
My heart is numb
The suffering should end soon
I await my end
I'll surrender my life
I don't need joy
I'll live on through others
My time has come
I'll leave myself behind
My end awaits
I'll go in pure sacrifice
I'll go
without a fight
The pain inside
My pale skin
The useless lies
My dead eyes
Wounds fester inside
My heart is numb
The suffering should end soon
I await my end
I'll surrender my life
I don't need joy
I'll live on through others
My time has come
I'll leave myself behind
My end awaits
I'll go in pure sacrifice
I'll go
without a fight
