, all the signs are there.
They all think that I am brave,
the strongest link of our chain,
but really I've gotta say that ain't how it's like.

Closing in, not slowing down.
Iron, fire, blood,
our line's breaking and death a-taking.

Our men from all around,
into to pools of mud,
"Forward! Forward!"
There is no turning back.

The fall back -calling,
as oru soldiers keep falling,
no, foward, forward! I am not turning back!

May today become the day,
as I pludge into the grey.
Lead is flying, all the signs are there.

They all think that I am brave,
the strongest link of our chain,
but really I... just want a bullet between my eyes,
AIM HIGH!


Ever-Frost


The accusations and the blame,
true or false, they seem the same.
Filthy fingers, rise in rows
and out of shit a flower grows.

I'm amazed,
how damn low people can go only by being themselves.

Those with hearts of ever-frost,
will always know we never lost.
Flame rose high... Not enough to melt the ice.

Tiny minds and virtuous whoes,
a bunch of morons with a cause.
Jesus saves? We will piss upon your graves!

Three wise men came to the north,
on their donkeys they rode forth.
Whining I'd comitted sins,
moaning I'm too everything.

Still amazed,
how a whole trio of men can only have two brain cells.

Those with hearts of ever-frost,
will always know we never lost.
Acid rain: Urine on your flames.


We Are But Falling Leaves


Think of your lifetime as one day,
it's fading away,
the shadows are growing long.

Think of existence as a flame,
and death as rain.
Storm clouds there right along.

At life's eve our flames will cease,
eternally, unavoidably.
Eventually all paths will lead to the cemetary.

We are but falling leaves in the air, hovering down.
Unaware we are spinning around.
Scattered fragments of time,
like blinks of an eye.
We are... That's all we are.

Think of your lifetime as one year,
look, autumn is here.
Getting colder... the winter's impending.

Your conclusion's drawing near,
certain, austere.
Yes, only the circle's unending.

At life's eve our flames will cease,
eternally, unavoidably.
Eventually all paths will lead to the cemetary.
To the prior deceased.

We are but falling leaves in the air, hovering down.
Unaware we will hit the ground
Scattered fragments of time,
like blinks of an eye.
We are... Just when we realize that we are alive... We die.


Her Last 5 Minutes


Must have been a week
since she drew the curtains down.
I don't know if it's night or day, and I don't care.

Our hope seem so bleak,
but she's pulling through somehow.
While I'm trembling in dismay, in despair.

I can see you're scared and tired of all this,
I can see the torment, the damage it has done.
Still we both know what the other alternative is,
not yet the only one...

The good moments are brief,
and there's nothing I can do
when it comes haunting her again and turns it worse.

She shivers like a leaf,
as the waves of pain heave through.
The ruthless bringer of the end, fierce, perverse.

I can see you're scared and tired of all this,
I can see the torment, the damage it has done.
Still we both know what the other alternative is,
not yet the only one...

Don't go yet, don't yet go
Not yet, my only one
Don't go yet, I can't let go
Not yet, my only one


Where Water Falls Frozen

Despair-Ridden Hearts


All bridges on fire!
As onward and onward we rid.
The smoke rises higher; higher...
Up the ever-darkening sky.

So quickly everything swirled;
descent of the world.
Now it's all a chaotic ruin.

Burning eerie, sapphire.
The foretoken of closing doom.
Glowing dreadful and dire, dire...
Is the ever-haunting moon.

So sickly everything twirled;
the end of the world.
Now it's all a chaotic ruin.

We came so far,
so deeply wounded and so scarred
our despair-ridden hearts.

Frail as we are,
firmly united we will stand
'til the world falls apart.


Vengeance Is Mine


I am stunned, you caught me by surprise.
Assault and run, you outdid yourselfs.
Beaten numb, I didn't see you sneaking 'round the corner, how could I?
There is no sight in my third eye.

We're not done, I will hunt you down.
One by one, I'll blow you all to Hell!
For you faceless, nameless cowards cannot hide,
the day of reckoning will arrive.

Strike from behind and knock me to ground.
Kick me while I'm down!
Stab me in the back you bastards,
tear my heart out of my chest.

I'll rise from the ashes, from these ruins of mine.
From the wreckage
I'm right on your track, you bastards.
A dozen of eyes for an eye, vengeance is mine.

I have dreams of hammering your skulls,
fantasies of bashing in your brains.
Obsessively... I am watching, I am stalking,
I am following... And then the massacre begins.

Strike from behind and knock me to ground.
Kick me while I'm down!
Stab me in the back you bastards,
tear my heart out of my chest.

I'll rise from the ashes, from these ruins of mine.
From the wreckage
I'm right on your track, you bastards.
A dozen of eyes for an eye, vengeance is mine.


A Long Way To Nowhere


Approaching the moment now.
A long, hard journey in its end.
It's starting to loom right now...
The final round, and then it hits you, it kicks you, it splits you in half.

All the toil and all exhaustion,
all those times we hated.
All the losses, sacrifices,
all those things we missed.

All the suffering and distortion,
shit we tolerated.
All that we abandoned... All for this?

Our scattered hopes fall down,
the zeal turns to negligence.
The shattered dreams all down,
Crumbled around, that's when it shakes you, it quakes you, it breaks you.
It jades you, it fades you, degrades you, it laughs!

Enough's enough, too much,
it's more than we can take.
All those hits we took, persistence was in vain.

Enough's enough, too much,
it's all that I can say.
All down the drain, just bitterness remains.

It shakes you, it quakes you, it breaks you, it hates you, desecrates you, it laughs!

All the battles, all the dirt
and victories we tasted.
All the tension, all the misery
and all the bliss.

All the passion, all the hurt,
and all the love we wasted.
All the purgatories... All for this?
There's nothing there.


Consider Us Dead


Feel it... And how it's weighing in your hand.
Cold and loaded.
See it... Oh, how it's shining in my hand.
Cold and loaded.

I know I haven't got the balls to pull this through
and therefor I'm laying all my faith in you.

Raise the gun, take aim and shoot me.
Put a bullet through my head,
consider us dead.

Raise the gun, take aim and blow me away.
Squeeze the trigger, free the lead,
consider us dead.

We're leaving... This human ruin behind.
Too cold and empty.
Yes, leaving... For there's nothing more I can find.
In this cold and empty.

The choice is mine so don't be afraind to pull this through,
just get a grip, I'm dying to get rid of you.

Raise the gun, take aim and shoot me.
Put a bullet through my head,
consider us dead.

Raise the gun, take aim and blow me away.
Squeeze the trigger, free the lead,
consider us dead.

I know I haven't got the balls to pull this through
and therefor I'm laying all my faith in you.

Raise the gun, take aim and shoot me.
Put a bullet through my head,
consider us dead.

Raise the gun, take aim and blow me away.
Squeeze the trigger, free the lead,
consider us dead.


Lower The Flags


He's gone, he is dead.
His remain upon the hearse ahead.
As silently we wander through the mist, he's free.

This is the end.
Your journey's over, night descend.
Below into the abyss, farewell my friend, you will be missed.

Lower the flags,
a good man has passed,
he has reached the last of frontiers.

Lower the flags,
down to half-mast,
for again the world has taken a turn for the worse.

He's done, he is dead.
Six feet of earth upon his head.
Now lay your wreaths upon the one who lies beneath.

Although you're gone,
in memories you shall live on.
Asleep, in peace now rest, the weight of the world is off your chest.

Lower the flags,
a good man has passed,
he has reached the last of frontiers.

Lower the flags,
down to half-mast,
for again the world has taken a turn for the worse.

That mourning light I'll always remember,
and these August nights: cold as December.

Lower the flags,
a good man has passed,
he has reached the last of frontiers.

Lower the flags,
down to half-mast,
for again the world has taken a turn for the worse.


Drain Me


Always pretending to want you.
It's so easy to make you play my game.
Always deceiving to get you.
So goddamn easy to make you scream my name.

No remorse, no repent.
Still to you I'm heaven-sent.

I don't need a reason to hate you.
I don't need a reason to brake you.
Just keep that mouth wide open
And drain me my darling
Drain me my darling.

I don't need to care if you want me.
I don't need to care if you need me.
Just spread that pink wide smile
And drain me my darling
Drain me my darling.

For so many years I've been faking.
It's so hard to keep lying and smiling in vain.
For so many years I've been taking.
Innocence soiled, hey babe, your loss is my gain.

No remorse, no repent.
Still to you I'm heaven-sent.

I don't need a reason to hate you.
I don't need a reason to brake you.
Just keep that mouth wide open
And drain me my darling.
Drain me my darling.

I don't need to care if you want me.
I don't need to care if you need me.
Just spread that pink wide smile
And drain me my darling.
Drain me my darling.

End Of The Road


Here we are, now lay the burden down.
We're coming to the end of our road.
Sorrowful, yet glorious somehow
to be humming these one last ode, so calm and still.

It wasn't all that bad, or was it now?
Fulfilled... it doesn't only hurt to end it now,
The Funeral.

The memories beneath the dust of years,
they seem like those of someone deceased.
There's no more to be done, or hoped or feared.
Just waiting for the final release, so calm and thrilled.

It wasn't all that bad, or was it now?
Still, it doesn't only hurt to end it now.

Is life over, this life's over?
Or has it only just begun?
It grovs colder, starts to moulder...
Coming apart yet still not done.
Forever one.
