FOR A WHILE
This is how the story begins
You’ve probably heard this a thousand times before
This is my life
So what do I care
I’m lost I’m scared I’m all alone
These days get darker every day
What should I do
Where should I go
I’m struggling I’m screaming I’m fighting
But still I won’t learn to live
I’m wandering through these empty days
With no purpose to be
I’d give it my heart
I’d give it my soul
To be free of this pain
This soul wants to laugh
This soul needs to smile
At least for a while..
I’m struggling I’m screaming I’m fighting
But still I won’t fade away
I’m wandering through these empty days
With no purpose to be
I’d give it my heart
I’d give it my soul..
At last a glimpse of a brighter future
Now I know I’ll be okay

INTO OBLIVION
I tried to make it possible for everyone of us
I tried to teach you everything and open up your hearts
But everything still seems to fade and turning into ash
I gave you possibilities and choices how to change
But still you seem to throw away everything I gave
I see the skies turn to fire but I see no angels
I hear the voices of the ones in need but hear no god
The savior is coming
To feed our hunger
And you foolish maggots
Believe in this
In the cradle of eden
The purpose has been forgotten
In the kingdom of heavens
The castle starts to rumble
Two million years of evolution and nothing’s learned
Supreme being now kneeling before all voices silence
Hell is breaking
Sapiens fading
Biblical punishment eradicating
After everything has come to an end
We finally understand
In this apocalyptic blink of an eye
We may feel regret
I see the skies turn to fire but I see no angels
I hear the voices of the ones in need but hear no god

I feel hate
I feel pain
I feel sorrow
(I don't wanna live)
I'm alone
In this blackness
Needing forgiveness
(Feeling so weak)
I stuffed skeletons in my closet for too long
Until the door gave up and set them free
Now they all dance around me
In this dark room making fun of me
Sometimes i wonder
Should join their dance or smash them up to pieces
Take me from this pain
I do not need more rain
Believe in forgiveness
That will set you free
Today is the day when it's redemption time
A walk on memory lane that ain't much fun
I'm standing as a viewer watching things go wrong
I haven't felt this helpless in a while
Now i see... Me.
All this guilt and shame of those things I've done
Did not seem to affect you at all
With your pure appearance and healing power
You slowly closed my wounds
You took me from this pain
No longer feel the rain
Believe in forgiveness
That has set you free
I feel love
I feel joy
I feel power
IT'S FINALLY… OVER...

Man Made Pain Lyrics

MAN MADE PAIN
Every day you wake up and you try again
Banging your head to the wall my friend
There’s no easier way to go through this life
Than to learn and keep your dreams and hopes alive
All these years you’ve been living in loneliness
You’re slowly creating your own darkness
Would you care if I said that you ain’t no fool
I’m standing here in the same storm as you
Take a breath and dive
I’ll promise you’ll feel alive
You’ll be to finally cry
Make darkness turn into light
Your soul is open wide
Now you finally see the skies
You no longer need your disguise
How good it feels to be… free
Did you know the sun rises up every day
Even if you don’t have any reasons to stay
Would you throw it all away even without a try
Leaving everybody asking the question why
Spread your wings and fly
I’ll promise you’ll feel alive
You’ll be to finally cry
Make darkness turn into light
Your soul is open wide
Now you finally see the skies
You no longer need your disguise
How good it feels to be… complete

War

The rumble has begun there's no turning back since the damage is done
The only thing you can do is count the days to the doomsday that falls on everyone
I fear there's no way out for me
I eat my last meal at home and my only company
Is the photo of my ex-girlfriend and me
I'm ready to face my destiny
I can't believe it's real
I don't know how to take this
It's really happening
I take my new best friend that is
The enemy of everyone
Made to hurt and to make bleed
They said don't use it to kill
Try just to cause deadly wounds
I wake up to a noise and look around
I see one of my brothers has gone down
There's nothing to do, he takes his last breath
And slowly falls into final sleep
I take my friend and look outside
It's a hell on earth there's only destruction and agony
There's no real winners in this deadly game
Almost every man falls but no one will survive
The only thing that will always be alive is this war
All men will fight
No one survives
From this madness
Alive
All of the sudden all i hear is silence, am i bleeding, am i dead, did someone stop this violence,
for a second there i thought this is over now
Someone grabs me, shouts "Get up! We're under mortar fire! Are you hit? Take cover! Watch those snipers! We're the hell is our backup!? We're all fucked up now!"
I wake up screaming from this nightmare, in the middle of the night again. How can this past be haunting
in my mind, every single moment night and day?
Losing friends thinking there all against me. And two only things i can think that could help me,
are suicide or signing up to another war
Getting ready for a new battlefront, there's no time for nightmares anymore
Now i can see the beauty in this chess of death the peace of my mind is in war
