For A While 04:16
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...

Edit Man Made Pain Lyrics by Standing Ovation on Wednesday, June 22, 2011 at 10:17pm 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 08:17
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
