BURIED ALIVE BY LOVE

Again the burden of losing rests upon my shoulders
And its weight seems unbearable
Your tomb is where your hearts is
I should have told her
But within me hid a secret so terrible

To cry is to know that you're alive
but my river of tears has run dry
I never wanted to fool you, no
but a cold heart is a dead heart
and it feels like I’ve been buried alive by love

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

The kiss of vanity blessed me with a spiritual murder
And fed the gods of war insatiable
Your home is where the dark is
I should have told her
And embraced the fire indestructible

To die is to know that you’re alive
And my river of blood won’t run dry
I never wanted to lose you
But a cold heart is a dead heart
And a deserted soul is gone
And it feels like i’ve been buried alive by love

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

Oh, To cry is to know that you're alive
but my river of tears has run dry
I never wanted to fool you
but a cold heart is a dead heart
and it feels like I’ve been buried alive by love

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

THE FUNERAL OF HEARTS

Love's the funeral of hearts and an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood and the flowers of evil in bloom
The funeral of hearts and a plead for mercy
When love is a gun separating me from you.

She was the sun shining upon the tomb of your hopes and dreams so frail
He was the moon painting you with its glow so vulnerable and pale
Love's the funeral of hearts and an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood and the flowers of evil in bloom
The funeral of hearts and a plead for mercy
When love is a gun separating me from you.

She was the wind carrying in all the troubles
and things he for years tried to forget
He was the fire restless and wild,
and you went like a moth to that flame

Be ready to be undivine
Pray to a god that's deaf and blind
The last nights, the souls on fire
Dreaming to answer the question why

Love's the funeral of hearts and an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood and the flowers of evil in bloom
The funeral of hearts and a plead for mercy
When love is a gun separating me from you.

BEYOND REDEMPTION

Oh I see your scars
I know where they're from
Sensually carved and bleeding
Till you're dead and gone

I’ve seen it all before
Beauty, splendour, torn
It’s when heaven turns to black
And hell to white
Right so wrong and wrong so right now

Refrain:
Feel it turning your heart into stone
Feel it piercing your courageous soul
Beyond our redemption
No one's gonna catch you when you fall

Oh I see you crawl
You can barely walk and with arms wide open
You keep on begging for more

I’ve been there before
Knocking the same door
It's when hate turns to love
And love to hate
Faith to doubt
And doubt to faith now

(Refrain x5)

Beyond our redemption (x4)

SWEET PANDEMONIUM

Today tomorrow seems so far away and the wait in vain, yeah
So safe in the blinding light of love unchained in yesterday’s grave, yeah

Refrain:
The truth that could set souls free
Is buried within sweet pandemonium
Concealed by disbelief
The Riddle stays veiled in sweet pandemonium

Afraid that everything remains unchanged in this fragile dream, yeah
Ashamed are the shattered remains of promises made, yeah

(Refrain)

Drained by the anger and grief
Fazed by the envy and greed
The secret cries for a release
The lucidity hidden deep in sweet pandemonium

(Refrain)
top






SOUL ON FIRE

There’s a flame that leads all souls astray
No one’s safe from its tender touch of pain
And everyday it’s looking for new slaves
To celebrate the beauty of the grave

Refrain:
We are like the living dead
Sacrificing all we have
For a frozen heart and soul on fire
We are like the living dead
Craving for deliverance
With a frozen heart and soul on fire

Again we’re falling for disgrace
And hate will shelter us from the rain
We are enslaved by the sacred heart of shame
And gently raped by the light of day

(Refrain)

Addicted to our divine despair
The venom of the cross we bear
The guilt will follow us to death

(Refrain)

We're the soul on fire
top






THE SACRAMENT

I hear you breathe so far from me
I feel your touch so close and real
And I know
My church is not of silver and gold,
Its glory lies beyond judgement of souls
And the commandments are of consolation and warmth

Refrain:
You know our sacred dream won’t fail
The sanctuary tender and so frail
The sacrament of love
The sacrament of warmth is true
The sacrament is you

I hear you weep so far from me
I taste your tears like you’re next to me
And I know
My weak prayers are not enough to heal
The ancient wounds so deep and so dear
The revelation is of hatred and fear

(Refrain)

The sacrament is you (x4)

(Refrain x2)

FORTRESS OF TEARS

No one can hurt you now in this heaven safe and sound
no one can save you now from this grace you are drowning in
just hold your breath on your way down

Refrain:
This fortress of tears
I've built from my fears for you
This fortress won't fall
I've built it strong for you

No one can free you now
from the chains around your heart
don't be afraid now
just dive in this emptiness
and hold your breath on your way down

(Refrain)

No one can hurt you now
in this heaven safe and sound
just hold your breath on your way down

(Refrain)
top






CIRCLE OF FEAR

Heartache's knocking on her door
shadows dance outside her window
Tears keep falling on the floor
as the world around her crumbles

Refrain:
If you wanna save her
first you'll have to save yourself
if you want to free her from the hurt
don't do it with your pain
if you want to see her smile again
don't show her you're afraid
because your circle of fear is the same

Love can be as cold as grave
a one-way ticket to endless sorrow
an empire of gentle hate
today without tomorrow

(Refrain)

It's the circle of regret
the circle of hate
the circle of death
your circle of fear is the same
your circle of fear is the same

(Refrain)

Your circle of fear is the same (x4)

ENDLESS DARK

Softly the light shines in through
the gates of grace on me and you
deceiving our restless hearts
a flickering flame to serene
devours the night so we could see
the fear we hold on to so strong

But I know where I belong
away from your gods
that heal all wounds
and light this endless dark
this endless dark

Lonely the light shines on you
through the gates of fire entombed
feeding on your love
weak is the blaze that kept me away
from cruelty and tenderness embraced
saving my soul no more

And I know where I belong
away from your gods
that heal all wounds
and light this endless dark
this endless dark

And I know where I belong
away from your gods
that heal all wounds
and light this endless dark

That shine on you and tame your burning heart
That bury my truth right into your arms
That worship the tomb of your forlorn love

THE PATH

There is no turning back from this unending path of mine
serpentine and black it stands before my eyes
to hell and back it will lead me once more
it's all I have as I stumble in and out of grace

I walk through the gardens of dying light
and cross all the rivers deep and dark as the night
searching for reason why time would’ve passed us by

With every step I take the less I know myself
every vow I break on my way towards your heart
countless times I've prayed for forgiveness
but Gods just laugh at my face
and this path remains
leading me into solitude's arms

I see through the darkness my way back home
the journy seems endless but I'll carry on
the shadows will rise and they will fall
and our night drowns in dawn

Amidst all the tears there’s a smile
That all angels greet with an envious song
One look into one stranger’s eyes and i know where i belong
And the path goes on…

I walk through the gardens of dying light
and cross all the rivers deep and dark as the night
searching for reason why time would’ve passed us by

I see through the darkness my way back home
the journy seems endless but I'll carry on
the shadows will rise and they will fall
and our night drowns in dawn
