Another dream Lost in Hollywood Kill me again I never understood A psycho skull An obsessed head Kill me again Never leave me for dead Yeah! This is the day The god of this world Burns away Yeah! This is the day Another promise Falls from grace A perfect ghost Trapped in the past Kill me again Never let it last Walk with me Through the gates of hell Kill me again But don't ever tell Take my life With a plastic rose Kill me again No one will ever know Walk away On this cross I stand Let me live With blood-stained hands

Stigmata 04:05
She's always in my dreams Even when I'm not there All hail to your majesty A broken goddess is so unfair It's only fair to me It's never fair to me! God said now, "Don't you think you're better left alone? Bow to me With a blessed crown of thorns" Wandered in circles for eternity Hunt for gold and infamy Suffer through another tragedy The stigmata bleeds eternally You can't cover a flesh wound With grains of sulfur Bow to the almighty queen As I decay and suffer Seems like another day Every time I die The eternal snow piles up But it's never just enough Lost is the sacred name When it dies with me

A little smile is all I need to know That someday you'll be mine Our perfect future was set After the way talked to me just that one time It's time to play the slow games I guess never knew my love for you Would cause me so much pain I don't have the heart to say the words It's too much of a leap of faith I have to play to feel alive I may be sick But just don't tell me That's the price you pay For wanting love It must be sick And just a dream Is what you'll say to me But I can hold out I was so back then that in the end This would be special I guess I forgot again that I'm Nothing but a delusional scoundrel I have to play the slow games It seems so sick But make no mistake I'll be in grief For as long as it takes I know it's sick But I can't help it I'm jealous for nothing You'll see that

She slid inside On a cemetery ride She told the driver next to her, "Put the pedal to the edge and C'mon let's ride!" I see her there With her golden-blown hair As she held a pistol to the sky As we rode and wondered Why we ever cared I am the only one Never say die with a holy gun I am the only one King of the night's run I am the only one Worship the ground that I walk on I am the only one Named 'Demon of the Black Sun' She ran with me With her muscle-tainted dream Four-hundred horses carry us Forward to the golden gates Where we rest in peace She always knows How the demons have to roll The nitro-burner never questions As to why the motors cry, "Freedom of the soul!" Her screaming Sounds so comforting Soul crushing To the empty sky Sunset fantasies Burn the golden seas A lonely king's Blackened summer dream Ghost riding At the endless lead Sky running Set sail on on a dream She's the one Never look the same Break out steed That will always be

Show Me Hell 04:32
Dear father, There's a beautiful show Apocalyptic minds and A cannibal core Dear mother, You've got a beautiful child Who stole your face With an innocent smile C'mon c'mon Are you afraid to die? C'mon c'mon You want to give up your life? You can never turn back I will never tell I'm where you want me So show me hell Dear father, You're the criminal one A psycho lust From the devil's son Dear mother, You're gonna look away Abuse the pain That you brought today Dear father, You're the carnival king Who stole a child's life On a diamond ring Dear mother, You tell me what's real Call me your god On bloody kneel

My Friends 03:33
Betrayed my a mizer's greed A perfect storm of misfortune Entombed in frozen dispair Famine is the demon of desperation Forsaken to the bitter sin Where one is to die others may live Sacrificed in the baptism of survival Butchered to bring forth new life Am I man or am I beast? Howling in agonizing lust My friends are part of my suffering Blood-soaked snow trails of death This lake hides the grave of my friends That are found in me My friends shall join me In this glorious banquet A feast fit for a king My friends are a part of This glorious banquet A ceremony fit for a beast

I. The Pain I've waited for these days So much that it pains These long sleepless nights Never end when you're On my mind Please take me from this dream And lead me far beyond I want to be with you Now that summer's gone But now your summer's gone II. The Sorrow Remaining in the darkness Waiting for tomorrow to come These days drift on As my conscience begins to fade And still I wander Praying for redemption Will I die alone With no one by my side? III. The Joy There's a dream the brings me joy She'll never be the same again Throw caution against the wind And pray this day never ends But what I see Is what's really me Break this shell And set me free I see this Stray in reverie We are here I don't want to see another day IV. The Fear Every angel needs its wings And it's finally coming to this point There's a flower laying by your door As I fear the judgment at hand What are you going to do When the lights go out Tremble at what you might gain? Bring me a savior to pray: As God is in his Heaven All will be right with this world V. The End I found a way to fall Sitting lonely still I've got a way to fall I'll never see the sun again...

So innocent Like a porcelain doll on my windowsill Another sip of wine Red, red wine Staring at your picture As if you're really there Laughing at my self pity Because you wrote my eulogy Damn yourself a new god Praise the angel's faith Redeem your new life Hallowed by thy name Born into antiquity It lives to find this hate Hold pretension to my new love This blackened soul lives once more The porcelain doll On my windowsill Beckons for the communion A redemption One more time

Born in a world of chaos Her innocence ever so clean This little girl wants to be The next beauty queen An injust prejudice Against beasts of the sea Persecution bringing Innocence into captivity A gun to her mother With a smile on her face Laughing to save your life With the black blood in the veins She was thrown in a cage Like a blackened bird The tormented soldier's rage Is all she ever heard The left the children for the birds A sacrifice on a hill The raven cries its rage With satisfaction in the kill Crying gives a signal Silenced with her hands Her brother in her arms A wolf roams across the land The children cry in the night Like the trauma at the core The wolf stalks the halls Until the tears shed no more She fled out on a run Escaping from a war Hiding with the bodies Stacked under the floor The screams of the torture Brings a voice to the ear The mantis eats its kind When hunger is so clear
