Songs for the Gothic People
1. The Last Time
I thought you had left me
while I was sleeping down at the fireplace
I felt you caressed me
then I lost your love in a vicious way
This is the last time, I´m out of control
I'm living the fireworks of dead and dark love
This is the last time, I wanna let go
Living free, I untie the rope
I thought you would free me
while you locked me up in a mental chain
When you deceive me
I will hunt you down, I will kill again
2. Hearse
I am leaving, I am dreaming
Feel a bit of cold and I'm watching the fire burn
There were times when I was joyful
Times when I was harmful
Now I ride this hearse
Roll down the curtain
And I´ll turn off the spark
Things I would wish for...
One last dance in the dark
No endless timeline
Of a hero and gold
Things I would wish for...
One last dance for the soul
Now we go...
What is life without a fire
Life without desires
Heaven and hell on earth
She had the looks, so delightful
Always kept me faithful
How I'd´go down on her
3. Night
Out of time, out of pain
While I’m sleeping I won’t need to be afraid
Another life, another game
Dying in the void, my weary eyes they do the same
I have a feeling that we lost it somehow
And all the fires they will burn it all down
What did we learn? This precious time is running out
And I don't want to but I need to go now
I have tried but all in vain
Death is all I see while I just try to look away
You won't see me in a day
Night now is forever, night now is my bay
4. Forevermore
The sound of silence sweep across the shore
There´s no more dancing, and no more war
And in the newborn night there will be no sun
In this forever night we will be forever gone
A million souls are screaming
Never to come home
A million voices gone
They´ll never sing to anyone
A million lives are silent
Dead, gone and alone
A million tears are shed
In the silence of forevermore
The sound of emptiness echoes at the door
Echoes all in vain, the sound of night forevermore
The sound of silence closing in on time
The sound of fires burn forever til´ the end of time
5. Lost in Time
Heaven’s burning
I can see the flames reach higher
I´ve been turning down the things I have desired
Now the world is gone, forever lost in time
Night is closing in, I’m walking down the line
The siren’ s coming closer
I´m left with vast emotions
We´re leaving now for higher ground
Streams of blood keep flowing
Darkness ever growing
Dying like a flower of the sun
Can you see them?
Foreign ghosts who play with fire
They’ve been burning down freedom in a pyre
So remember now, tomorrow and all time
Night came closing in, died here down the line
The siren’s coming closer
Drowning in this ocean
Dying eyes will never see the sun
A broken heart not knowing
Tears are ever flowing
Tell them now, we are forever gone
6. Believe
I've been wandering the side of the road
for a fairly long, long time
For every second I don't want no more
Just to kill what's left behind
And I believe in fires
And I believe in the dying light
For every morning I await no sun
I just leave it to die
And I surrendered to the dark side of the world
To the point of no return
Into the void, into the cold, into the dirt
Why don't we just let it burn?
And I believe in fires
And I believe in the dying light
For every morning I await no sun
I just leave it to die
And I believe in dying
And I believe in the end of time
Forever gone is the prodigal son
God has left him to die
7. Fire at Dawn
Deep down our hearts are burning
We belong to the fire
Deep down our souls are turning
We were born so defiant
Well I´ve been awakened, I’m tired of faking lies
Now we´re moving on
I’m in a whirlwind, living and burning now
Light a fire at dawn
Deep down my heart's on fire
Dead and darkly desires
Deep down I'm dead and wired
There's no way of denial
Well I´ve been awakened, I’m tired of faking lies
Now we´re moving on
I’m in a whirlwind, living and burning now
Light a fire at dawn
Twisting and turning, well I’ve been falling down
Into a hole in the sun
Well I´ve been awakened, I´m tired of faking lies
Light a fire at dawn
8. Erased
Another night awaits me
Another hour in the company of cold
Another night and a violent dream
Another hour, we are dying in the void
And now the angels are leaving
Fly away from the sun
And all the gods are deceiving, now
Null and void they are none
Another life go fading
Another story running out in the sand
Another sigh and a daydream
Another hour fade away in my hand
And now the angels are leaving
Fly away from the sun
And all the gods are deceiving, now
Null and void they are none
And now we’re lost for a lifetime
Fly away to the stars
We’re erased from the timeline
Now the gods all laugh from afar
