Альбом Soilwork

I fought the forces
That will bring me down
They crawl without a sound
They wake me up at night
Kill the lights, make it right
No time for slumber
I'm getting dumber
Every sigh, everytime
I'm standing tall
Everytime I rise and fall

I think we're closer now
I'm getting nearer
I can see it touching ground
It's getting clearer
Can't you see I'm way behind
I'm so sincere
I believe you'll never find

Wee out the sun, under the gun
Kneel down for the ricochet
My future tells no lies
To a creature with no rights
As for the plans I have in mind
I have nothing left to find
Please show a sign
Who's next in line?

I think we're closer now
I'm getting nearer
I can see it touching ground
It's getting clearer
Can't you see I'm all denied?
Faithfucked believer
I claim you'll never find a better fear

Take a look, take a ride
Stay by my side
Don't dare to think
Lets follow the hollow
It kills your pride
To be alive
Please step a side
Cause I follow the hollow

We head for hell
And we do it well
Come eat the dust
Cause it's all a dirty lie
That chokes the sky

I think we're closer now
I'm getting nearer
I can see it touching ground
It's getting clearer
Can't you see I'm way behind
I'm so sincere
I claim you'll never find a better fear

Take a look, take a ride
Stay by my side
Don't dare to think
Lets follow the hollow
It kills your pride
To be alive
Please step a side
Cause I follow the hollow

Take a look, take a ride
(Take a look, take a ride)
Stay by my side
(Stay by my side)
Don't dare to think
(Don't dare to think)
Lets follow the hollow
It kills your pride
(It kills your pride)
To be alive
(To be alive)
Please step a side
Cause I follow the hollow

Ass we speak
The stable table turns
Ass we speak
I should have known
We're burned
And I guess I'll
Never never learn
Which of those faces
Who makes it all turn
Ass we speak
I'm going deeper down
Ass we speak
With a terrible sound
A feeble holy bastard son
Has it only just begun?

I turn away, fading out alone
Was a lifetime worth it all?
Fading out, fading out alone
Ass we speak we turn to stone

Ass we speak
A young man looses his mind
Ass we speak
He kills what's next in line
A broken down mother
Asks herself why
Is this the end
Of her precious time?
Ass we speak...
A conscience leaves
Without a trace
A silent departure
To a silent place
What do we know
About the anger
That starts to grow

Don't despair
Time will heal your torment
Don't you dare
Spend your days in hell
So beware
Faith will bring you treason
While you stare... Oh!

-Solos-

(I turn away, turn away)
Was a life time worth it all?
Fading out, fading out alone
Ass we speak we turn to stone
Turn away (fading out alone)
Was a life time worth it all?
Fading out, fading out alone
Turn away (fading out alone)
Ass a lifetime turns to stone

Don't look for compassion
As long as you
Keep turning away
It's all that matters to me
When I try to puzzle your pain

You struggle against yourself
By living in the dust
Can't you realize
There's no one here
Who you can't trust
May the gods have mercy
On your bastard brain
Hold on one more second
My fatal one

Feeding angels with despair
Flameouts reigning everywhere
And you need it so
You just can't let it go away

I try hard to pull the
Strings of your life
Adopting my soul
To figure out what's right
Deep down I know
You can make it shine
Save yourself
And do not decline
An acute manner
For an acute
Self-destructive kind
It is structured
Before your eyes
You're so inferior and vile!
A creator of demonized
Stress and steals the crown
From the evil ones
Living in his mess

The remnants of his youth
Lies public just
If someone cares...
Swallow the bitter
Pill and justify!

Feeding angels with despair
Flameouts reigning everywhere
And you need it so
You just can't let it go away

So here I stand all alone
Where is the face
That I used to know
Can't believe you
Never found out why?
Why keep on hurting yourself?

-Solo-

Your time is running out
I think it ends right now
Your time is running out
I believe it starts right now

You struggle against yourself
By living in the dust
Can't you realize
There's no one here
Who you can't trust
May the gods have mercy
On your bastard brain
Hold on one more second
My fatal one

Feeding angels with despair
Flameouts reigning everywhere
And you need it so
You just can't let it go away
Feeding angels with despair
Flameouts reigning everywhere

Don't you ever try to solve a problem in distress
The infected smile upon your face
looks so godly in this mess
Shut down- all your dreams
Confess- you're released
You know- what I mean
can't stop this strangulation alone

wait for chaos, wait for the welfare at this point of no return
bleed for money, bleed for justice, going straight to hell
with a wounded soul
Reaching out for a solid soul
of compassion and excitement

-Do I dare to trust my faith right now
as it fools my mind somehow...
Reborn - once again
Erase - and repent
You know what I mean!

Saved, building up a fate on your own
Now, your saved, never seem to care while they're
watching you
Pay, pay for your sins on your own
Pay, lie to yourself while you're getting low

wait for chaos, wait for welfare at this point of no return
bleed for money, bleed for justice, going straight to hell
with a wounded soul

Don't you ever try to satisfy your needs with a deeper
thought if you do or if you please, if you do or please
Shut down- all your dreams
Confess- you're relieved
You lie- to yourself
Your pride goes before a fall...

Saved, building up a fate on your own
Now, youre saved, never seem to care while they're
watching you
Pay, pay for your sins on your own
Pay, lie to yourself while you're getting low

wait for chaos, wait for welfare at this point of no return
bleed for money, bleed for justice, going straight to hell
with a wounded soul

Now the Bombshell babies see the world
with brand new eyes
The day they were born they couldn't get it right
Leaving scars and agony
Gathered in a fatal colony
We've seen 'em fall
One for all, bitter and bright
Nailed to the wall
Closing in as the terror's going blind
Ruthless and devastating as our time just passes by
We've lost our patience and our belief
Dismantled and broken as the sirens shriek
What can we do, what can we say
Our veins are filled with pure dismay

[Chorus]

Staring through the windows
Waiting for all sins to be born
Playing on a mindfield, searching like never before

Now that our state of mind has left us broken and divine
We never meant to hurt ourselves
-Signed, sealed completely blind
There's a lack of foundation
A horrible scream of our nation cause...
We've seen 'em fall
One for all, bitter and bright
Nailed to the wall
What can we do, what can we say
Our veins are filled with pure dismay

[Chorus]

Staring through the windows
Waiting for all sins to be born
Playing on a mindfield, searching like never before

[1st Lead Frenning]
[2nd Lead Wichers]

Staring through the windows
Waiting for all sins to be born
Playing on a mindfield, searching like never before

Hey soilmates, we're facing the end
We're down low no use to pretend
A bitter message from heaven sent
it says we're asleep at the wheel again
Let's say we're stuck in an illusion
Let's say we're out of control
Possessed by a lethal redeemer
Forcing us to play a neurotic role
Oh, won't you take this thing out of me
It never leaves me alone
Fight the demons and devastate
This mental battlezone

Bring it back, bring it home
Enough is enough, I'm alone
Everything's set all ready to go away
Bring it back, bring it home
To the place I used to know
There comes a time
when this nighmare will turn to hate

Beware what you intend to say
Those words will always make you pay
Repress what's before your eyes
Gather the spirits and hypnotize
Let's say we're stuck in an illusion
Let's say we're out of control
Possessed by a lethal redeemer
Forcing us to play a neurotic role
Oh, won't you take this thing out of me
It never leaves me alone
Fight the demons and devastate
This mental battlezone
I wait for this to overcome
What's inside it needs to be done
this vital plague has brought my pain
and endless pain...

Bring it back, bring it home
Enough is enough, I'm alone
Everything's set all ready to go away
Bring it back, bring it home
To the place I used to know
There comes a time
when this nighmare will turn to hate

Bring it back, bring it home
Enough is enough, I'm alone
Everything's set all ready to go away
Bring it back, bring it home
To the place I used to know
There comes a time
when this nighmare will turn to hate

Oh, won't you take this thing out of me
It never leaves me alone
Fight the demons and devastate
This mental battlezone
I wait for this to overcome
What's inside it needs to be done
this vital plague has brought my pain
and endless pain...

Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross

Meanwhile time takes a turn
-I'm feeling damned when you make it burn
Let's testify you're born to die
-You speak the truth and so do I
Don't give it away
-Don't give it away
don't try to nail
don't you try to nail
Don't try to nail!!

Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross

Black star deceiver kills it all
The sun lies waiting for a call

You seem to be a fatal one
come watch me preach under the gun
I'm down and out, so down and out!

Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seem steady now crawl to the cross

Black star deceiver kills it all
The sun lies waiting for a call
Take me away, I'm in distress
Oh grand deceiver put me to rest
I was never in pain, sick or insane
So hear me now you're the one I blame!

Meanwhile time takes a turn
-I'm feeling damned when you make it burn
Let's testify you're born to die
-You speak the truth and so do I
Don't give it away
-Don't try to nail!

Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seem steady now crawl to the cross

Black star deceiver kills it all
The sun lies waiting for a call

Breakdown of a shadow unknown
Tomorrow belongs to no one
As I repent the things I've done
There is a freeway heading for sorrow
Breakdown cause you've had enough
You've never felt so strong
Steal away, steal away let it all astray
It's been so long!
When there comes a time
With a feast on what used to be mine
Sent from the front to the back
All in numbers and fellish black [Repeat]

[Chorus]

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow

Is this the statement that I feel?
-Accused to be an unbeliever

Hit the lights and won't you please resign
Way down and right on time

Is this the statement that I feel?
Acccused to be an unbeliever

Won't you shut all the doors in mind
The ones you cannot find
There is no way that I can see
Why you keep on... haunting me!

[Chorus]

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow [Repeat]

Bring punishment
To get hold of me
So cold like a glance
From my eyes
Accept the way
It's meant to be
A mental sacrifice
Go down hear the sound
Of a gentle man
Leading you
Straight to the void
Where the neon
Bastards they make
Dropouts out of leftover toys

No more angels
No more painful lies
No more strangers
Nor more waste of time

So here I am
Going straight to the plan
Never knowing that I'm damned
Walking the thread
That's so precious to me
A secret part of my history
My time, too short
As nothing beckons to me
My time, goddamn
What is it I try to be
Fill the hole
A thousand feet below
Become the master
Of a freak show

So cold
Right now
So cold
Right now

No more angels
No more painful lies
No more strangers
Nor more waste of time

Bring punishment
To get hold of me
So cold like a glance
From my eyes
Accept the way
It's meant to be
A mental sacrifice
Go down, the keeper
Of your thoughts may be
Go down, a sacred child
Who just can't see
Counting the days
So amazed
Of this sweet and
Miserable effort

So cold
Right now
So cold
Right now

-Solos-

So cold
Right now
So cold
Right now

No more angels
No more painful lies
No more strangers
Nor more waste of time
No more angels
No more painful lies
No more strangers

Post-ironic, we laugh, dream in sonic
Diamond overload
Drenched in fear by struck of lightning
'Cause we're only listening with one ear now
This organism rips us apart, it feasts on us

Song of the damned never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand

This machine creates
What in some people's mouth is called art
Too hard to comprehend
Too hard, but will not bend, we will not bend

So why are we trusting those cynical souls?
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching, bleeding
With hearts open wide, all so cold
Live for the moment, get killed for the thrill
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching, bleeding for nothing
For we've seen it all

Fast and furious, we're riding with serpent speed
Through the essence, through the greed
Forcing ourselves to overcome this mystery
This restless degradation
Temptation and our endless lust
Will bring us down - will bring us deeper down!

So why are we trusting those cynical souls?
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching, bleeding
With hearts open wide, all so cold
Live for the moment, get killed for the thrill
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching, bleeding for nothing
For we've seen it all

Post-ironic, we laugh, dream in sonic
Diamond overload
Drenched in fear by struck of lightning
'Cause we're only listening with one ear now
This organism rips us apart, it feasts on us

Song of the damned never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
Song of the damned never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
Song of the damned never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
(Repeat)
