Sailors

It’s a hot and silent night – without a glimpse of light
Neighbour is watching TV – Some shit I have never seen
I can hear the wind outside – which is supposed to bring the tide
The heat is getting stronger now – The fear starts to grow
Dark, I feel dark - I feel dark
The fear starts to grow - Dark
I feel dark I feel dark
The fear starts to grow - Dark
It’s been five years since she’s gone – Mary waits for her husband John
It’s been five years and not a sign – but she won’t give up the fight
They say they would find him - But her hope grows dim
And while weeks become years – All they do is tell her
Lies, they told her lies - they told her lies - too many lies
They told her lies they told her lies - too many lies
Too many lies
Hope became a disaster – Empty graves covered with flowers
The sea will not return their sailors
Children cry alone with their mothers
They’re all dead

The fluid drifts inside my blood
The pain gets worse my head’s in the mud
Few minutes in I’ll believe what they say
The torture starts and stops today
And I won’t lie but I’ll die with this pain burning my veins
Suffering and crying, shouting in vain
And I swear that I am not gonna crawl – And I promise I’ll never fall
So nice that I can't feel my nerves - Pain is buried under my grave
I can see for million miles away - On a sapphire paved way
And I won’t lie but I’ll die with this pain burning my veins
Suffering and crying, shouting in vain
And I swear that I am not gonna crawl – And I promise I’ll never fall
Now I just can’t feel my body anymore - Death has just knocked on my door
I just came from nowhere – Can’t remember where I was before
After hours and hours and they killed me – I was found on a tree
Cos, I swore that I wouldn’t fall – And now I am dead for all

In the night
04:34
|

|
In the night, I roam in the dark – Shadows and spirits turn to black
In the night, I choose to come back to life – reborn and ready to meet my wife
Struck behind a mirror – My shape has no colour – Alone
Glass is my cradle – Here I am invisible – Alone
And I spy on her through the night
In the night, mist in the skies – and in my heart the sun rises
In the night, I share all her dreams – But I can’t comfort her when she screams
Struck behind a mirror – My shape has no colour – Alone
The glass is my cradle – Here I am invisible – Alone
And I spy on her through the night
And I try to fight the night – too late cos I can’t face the light
Here I am on the other side – Where she dreams but I must hide
Struck behind a mirror – My shape has no colour – Alone
Years have passed by – And I still live in a lie - Alone
And I spy on her through the night

Razor Blade
03:17
|

|
Feels like the taste of a razor blade – Like I’m intoxicated - by you
Feels like the hit of a hurricane – Each morning I awake - with you
I’m gonna hunt you – I’m gonna find you
I’m gonna kick you out of my blood
I’m gonna fight you – I’m gonna tear you
I’m gonna twist you until you blow
Feels like the taste of a razor blade – and I get weaker – because of you
I’m not gonna get mad and kill my brain – leave my children for you
I’m gonna hunt you – I’m gonna find you
I’m gonna kick you out of my blood
I’m gonna fight you – I’m gonna tear you
I’m gonna twist you until you bomb
I’m gonna break you – I’m gonna find you
I’m gonna break you – dismantle you
I’m gonna kill you – until I’m free
You are mistaken – deluded
If you assume that you will survive me
Feels like the taste of harmony – since that I climbed up that tree - of life
You better not come back to me – try to bury me – after life

Judgment Day
05:42
|
|||
|
Volcanic eruptions - Dark pillows on the horizon
The storm grows up, feel the rain - Here comes the hurricane
It’s time for Judgment Day - Judgment Day
From everywhere comes the flood – And this time will take our blood
Ground cracks, houses collapse - Death is coming
It’s time for Judgment Day - Judgment Day
Open up the graves - Fear the rising of the slaves
They’re only made of bone and mould – Their blood runs cold
It’s time for Judgment Day - Judgment Day
Here comes the horde - Warriors of the Lords
They’re gonna bash brains, they need to kill
You’d better swallow that poison pill
It’s time for Judgment Day – Pay the price - Judgment Day
Down on our knees facing the light - Drying our tears after the fight
And we know we have to pay - to pay the price
Ashes to ashes - Dust to dust – Watch for the masses perverted by lust
Don’t we all just burn and die

Grave
03:11
|
|||
|
As times never change – And the light doesn’t come inside
Here I am buried with my pride – Here I lie full of dark revenge
And I choose that way – Since she passed away
I keep myself alive – In a grave until I die
Feel the worms all expecting – In the moisten mould they’re coming
I shout! But no one wants to hear
I cannot run I cannot hide – And they come from the other side
The dust falls and they all smell the fear
I put myself alive – In a grave until I die

Her cat
02:20
|

|
It’s a story of a cat - A really kitty cat
And the cat hunts a rat - A very ugly rat
And the cat caught the rat - Hidden right under my hat
And the rat hates cats - Cos cats eat rats
Oh yeah!
It is the story of her cat - Her very kitty cat
And her cat smells rats - Cos cats eat rats
And her cat caught the rat - Dirty grey and fat
And this naughty cat - Jumps bites and wounds the rat
Oh yeah!
It is the story of her cat - Her pretty kitty cat
And her cat chase a rat - Cos cats eat rats
And her cat found rats - A nasty gang of rats
And the rats fought the cat - They ate her stupid cat
Full stop now!

Bleed for rock and roll
03:48
|

This is my heart this is my soul – here’s where I bleed for rock and roll
Rock and roll
Tell me what’s the game you wanna play – tell me all the things you wanna say

Black rain
05:56
|
|||
|
A country awakes – voices of children
Sun rises behind the mountains – nobody calls for the rain
They’re not waiting for a bomb
A plane takes off from its station – Captain’s got instructions
Death perfectly knows the way – Little boy waits in Enola Gay
They have to drop a bomb
Fly, fly in the sky – Target and let them die
Fall, fall from the sky – Make orphans cry
In the country of the Rising Sun – Boys call girls for fun
With joy they start the day – Ignoring the end is on its way
They’re not waiting for a bomb
Target on the horizon – Drop here says instructions
Death has shown its way – Little boy fell from Enola Gay
They can drop the bomb
Fly, fly in the sky – Target and let them die
Fall, fall from the sky – Make orphans cry
Countdown from 10 to 1
The bomb explodes, gave rise to pillows
Thousands of souls into shadows
Blown away killed today – No one will forget that day
The bomb explodes, gave rise to pillows
Thousands of souls into shadows
Blown away killed today – No one will forget that day
The bomb explodes - Thousands of souls
Blown away killed today
When kids woke up that day – They did not fear Enola Gay
Absorbing the black rain – Everlasting pain
Children kissed the Bomb

Every night
04:11
|
|||
|
Every night, I sleep in the dark – Shadows and spirits turn to black
Every night, my blood runs cold – And I feel so old
Struck behind a mirror – His shape has no colour – He’s alone
Glass is his cradle – Completely invisible – He’s alone
And he stands there every night
Every night, mist in the skies – and in my heart the moon rises
Every night, we share all our dreams – But I can’t tell him how it feels
Struck behind a mirror – His shape has no colour – He’s alone
Glass is his cradle – Completely invisible – He’s alone
And he stands there every night
And I wish I could take the ride – but I can’t stop time
Here I stay on the other side – Where he sees me all the time
Struck behind a mirror – His shape has no colour – He’s alone
Years have passed by – And I still can’t die – I’m alone
And I grieve and mourn every night
