I was born under the fire bombs I couldn’t believe the war would reappear I’m scared today not to die but to stay And see my children loose their short lives Why do they want to control the world war? Is it too hard to let the people live Prepare yourself you didn’t choose it But they want a Third World War Say thank you to the people who chose To have a Third World War After the war what, will there be left on this earth I don’t want to know it just seems like the past We were afraid of the German’s attack But happily they died to save the world But today they don’t remember the past And it is their turn to be the world’s threat Prepare yourself you didn’t choose it But they want a Third World War Say thank you to the people who chose To have a Third World War

I can hear you whispering my name But I don’t wanna play this game Why don’t you simply shut up, you betrayed me That is how human kind works Beware the being, beware the beast! You should rather not look back, I turned off the light Time goes by but spite still remains, you know People change but I stay the same, you know Burning, crying, Spite stills remains, no need to forgive Should I forget, or remember Whatever they say, I’ve made my decision I bet you did not know that I could be so cruel You didn’t expect that from me I guess you did not think that there would be bad blood Between us my friend, it’s over! After those years sky became grey But there’s still a place for light Little by little clouds go by, I feel more tolerant Think about you did to me Something I cannot forget! But I promise I’ll forgive, just turn on the light People change, I’m only a man, you know Human kind works like that, you know Burning, crying, Spite leaves my mind, I need to forgive Am I right? Or just a human being? Whatever they say, I’ve made my decision I bet you did not know that I could be so cruel You didn’t expect that from me I guess you did not think that there would be bad blood Between us my friend, it’s over

Today I am dead but my spirit still lives on And now it is time to definitely know why I was still a child when they took my life For a story written by someone else I’ve never killed anyone on this earth I screamed out loud my heart was innocent They were looking for a guilty person and they blamed me for this bloody crime Since that another crime took place after my death The same inanimated body was found near the same place That’s why today they’re meeting again, the last word is about to arrive The hammer just fell, I’m innocent but my body will not come back to life I’ve never killed anyone on this earth I screamed out loud my heart was innocent They were looking for a guilty person and they blamed me for this bloody crime

A long time ago, prepared for war Immature and easily influenced Fighting for glory, fighting for us Searching for unknown ideals Young and proud, feeling brave Feeling stronger than ever Looking for a better day Feeling freer than ever Humanity’s gone by, now only bullets fly Thousands of soldiers felt, on twisted nails of faith My own justice, I’m not the one to blame For this injustice, for such a shame My own justice, how could I keep the flame ? For this injustice, for what I became Nothing but fear, it’s perfectly clear Everything changes except my wish Fighting for freedom, fighting for myself Searching for my own ideals

During this cold winter night when the flakes fell on the rhythm of your breath Paradise had already open its doors for you When the stars died in your eyes the angel that you were Flew away again for eternity And I fell this emptiness While the reaper took your spirit Nothing disturbed this moment except my tears Would I remember you if you stopped haunting my soul Would I remember you even if I fall in love again After this cold winter night a few years have gone by, but I’m still waiting for The moment I will embrace yourself again forever I already feel the poison running through my veins I can feel your face on my hands At last baby I’m back Would I remember you if you stopped haunting my soul Would I remember you even if I fall in love again

It’s running in your veins this pleasant poison everywhere Making us escape from our lives from our pains It’s a spring of death whose first sip opens the gates The black gates of hell, welcoming the hearts lost in fairytales Come on, come on, come on So many people fell into this tragedy So many people wanted to live Blood pollution no solution death is inside you Blood pollution no exception it kills you It’s consuming your brain this pleasant poison everywhere Making us fall into insanity and fear The rebirth of your soul’s just a come back to reality Where the ghost of your dreams in fact is your enemy It is taking your life this pleasant poison everywhere Making us feel so powerful during the trip But when needs are coming and your life becomes a nightmare This is the angel of death descending

These last few days, I was not myself Losing control, playing a puppet’s role. Oh damned! What’s this hell? Fury’s growing up, and I can’t hold it on Oh damned! Burning hell! A strange need invades my soul Is it still myself inside this body? I can’t be sure What is this voice that’s questioning my mind? I’m not alone Dark passenger, needs blood samples chasing human preys to kill Dark passenger feeds of terror from the eyes of his trophies. Oh damned! Freaking hell I feel relief when it smells death Oh damned! Insane hell. Taking their lives makes me feel better Is it still myself inside this body? I can’t be sure What is this voice that’s questioning my mind? I’m not alone Dark passenger, needs blood samples chasing human preys to kill Dark passenger feeds of terror from the eyes of his trophies. Oh hell! Here I am, sorrow, and distress And now, here I fight! Trying to remember the being I was -- Is it still myself inside this body? I can’t be sure What is that voice who’s questioning my mind? I’m not alone Dark passenger, needs blood samples chasing human preys to kill Dark passenger feeds of terror from the eyes of his trophies.

In these cold days of my life I’m fighting all my fears I’m fighting all my evil dreams. In the darkness, I can feel it Waiting in silence to enter my spirit When the moon lights my scary face A ghost appears to me, a ghost trying to tell me this: Run faster than the reaper, run faster forever. Run faster for your future, run faster forever. At this moment I realized, my death was not programmed My blood was made to run into my veins. So now when night falls on earth, it grows up inside me And I expect nothing from my freedom wishes In these cold days of my life I’m fighting all my fears I’m fighting all my evil dreams Run faster than the reaper, run faster forever Run faster for your future, run faster forever

Black Hole 05:05
Hoping for a chance to survive, thinking of a way to live Daylight has gone in despair, only darkness to rule this hell To rule this hell And now…Now that I’ve died Inside my head, everything is dead Because now…No way to hide…Future is behind In deep space I am lost, roaming there like a ghost In the embrace of darkness, in this Black Hole I lay When I think about what I have done, no regrets but only lies I felt as fast as I rose, after years, my conscience goes My conscience goes And now…Now that I’ve died Inside my head, everything is dead Because now…No way to hide…Future is behind In deep space I am lost, roaming there like a ghost In the embrace of darkness, in this Black Hole I lay All around me I see shadows and…I realize I am lost Dancing like flames they watch me and I…Fall asleep I can see them laughing and crawling Who could not think that’s insane? Dragging me into hell I can feel only pain

And now, that I woke up, I think this is time To get back to light This world, is what I am looking for To preserve my life Now that I’ve seen what this bright light was like I take care of what I leave behind This key you hide to preserve my pride Keys of Underworld this hell will strike Curse me! Attack me! Bewitch me I’ll come back to life Tell me! Narrate me! This story that cuts like a knife Keys of Underworld, let me reach my destiny Freedom for ever, I promise I’ll never be back again And now, it’s still time, to avoid the light I don’t want to fight This world, is what I was looking for To preserve my life Now that I’ve seen what this bright light was like I take care of what I leave behind This key you hide to preserve my pride Keys of Underworld this hell will strike Open up your mind to this world Forget what you have learnt Just turn the key and walk away Underworld is yours from this day And now, I woke up This is time to get back to light This world, is what I am looking for To preserve my life Now that I’ve seen what this bright light was like I take care of what you’ve left behind This key I hide to keep you so blind Keys of Underworld your hell will strike
