> To the mighty star, to all its people, to the mankind
And to all true believers You have known your brother and your leader You know he never bowed to the despots The dark cloud wavering in the sky Pushed forward with ill-willed wind Underneath walks a man having a dream Wants to teach us his own way to live Forgiveness is the word that he spreads Through the barrels of the guns he have made Entire world he wants to obey And more power for himself to take What does he want from us? What is the reason? To occupy and to conquer, in the name of freedom? We don't need his principle in revolt we shall rise Soon he will notice that no-one converts us The protest marchers fill up all the streets Soon will bleed in the hands of police The peaceful riot dispersed by the fire In our eyes burning bright we will fight So my brother, reach out your hand And receive the true meaning of faith The seed of the war has been plant Stand firm For the Revolution We rise, We die Amber lights illuminate all guns blazing I am the whip of God lashing you down This land that yesterday leaked nectar Now nothing but a battlefield opened wounds bleeding I can smell the gun oil in my hands When I'm taking away empty shells I can see someone falling down dead So the game is about to begin Our faith is our bedrock We shall not give up till we drop And we wonder, we cannot understand The meaning For the Revolution We rise, We die |

Tonight I'll see the line of thousand ghosts
Those once were alive behind my eyes And I'm on the crossfire of my manic thoughts Under the yoke of the hidden evil Why did you follow my footsteps? Why did you present yourself against me? Now I have to run, I have to leave behind The things I've done Over the plains, over the mountain tops Covered with snow, to the unknown, into the Foreign lands there shall I go But I know they're after me and it is my time to bleed Those restless dreams keep on teasing I can see your eyes just before you died And the blood red scar between my shoulder blades It is making me mad Dead man's shadow wavering above me Dead man's shadow a restless soul haunting me Now I have to run, I have to leave behind The things I've done Over the plains, over the mountain tops Covered with snow, to the unknown, into the Foreign lands there shall I go But I know they're after me and it is my time to bleed Those restless dreams keep on teasing I can see your eyes just before you died And the blood red scar between my shoulder blades It is making me mad Dead man's shadow wavering above me Dead man's shadow a restless soul haunting me |

Nothing but the same Violence and disgrace And no-one to blame A murder on a TV-screen The adults playing their game PlayStation controls children's lives As they grow up they'll do the same I sing - you sing - we all sing Holy Symphony of War Fearful thoughts hide in people's minds Control those who can't deny Under the patronage of steel The great man is turning the wheel Behind the scenery of abundance No-one hates more than the poor The scribe are spreading the word Declare the peace in the name of war I sing - you sing - we all sing Holy Symphony of War |

Trying to find the path to the light in vain? Standing behind your theory of inequality? Or can't you see all that God has created?

Deep inside you got nothing left You're just a fallen star Betrayed by dream in vain Before you're dead you must be Released by the victorious one Take your last breath and cry before I unleash hell We have the cure for our endless war And it's the last night before the darkness and light Blackhearted midnight walker is going nowhere Beneath the stars he wonders... is he hollow? Nightfall The darkest time arriving Look into the mirror of madness Drown in the chasm of sadness Day zero never comes Thorn in my spine awaiting salvation For the day of redemption Death unlimited is coming your way you got nothing to say Hellhole is gonna tear you apart Don't you know that everything is an end or maybe not 'cause you don't know shit |

Seasons wave when they're passing by I'm walking along the shore Wondering is this true or dream? Now when world is covered with blood Everything is filled with nothingness The smoke has covered the sky And the scene is filled with blackness Production spitting shit Into this God's gift Consequences are taking us We don't care future is here The energy policy is just a word Just a tool in a political battle Time is right but who has got he key That'll open the sky for the sun to gleam Warnings and threats fall on deaf ears Wilderness screams, it cries for help And from his throne God is watching The world with empty eyes Up towards the sky I send me prayer and I want her to survive But without the light she dies And the cancer is wasting her lungs I can feel that but I still stay hopeless And the smoke in the sky won't dispel And God is too busy to give a damn Warnings and threats fall on deaf ears Wilderness screams, it cries for help And from his throne God is watching The world with empty eyes Up towards the sky I send me prayer and I want her to survive But without the light she dies |

Oh dear mother why did you give me a birth
I didn't ask to be born Oh dear father can't you see what you've done I'm not the one you wanted me to become A coward I am and a good-for-nothing Still I can walk over you When my head is down and I'm in distress Moonshine is my gentle mistress A drunkard I am and a yokel, too Still I can walk over you My hand is poor and I have to bluff But cheating to win is not even enough Walking alone, testing the water Hiding skeletons in my closet A coward, a drunkard, a withdrawn, a stranger What the hell I feel no shame What the hell I feel no shame So dear mother why did you give me a birth I didn't ask to be born So dear father can't you see what you've done I'm not the one you wanted me to become Walking alone, testing the water Hiding skeletons in my closet A coward, a drunkard, a withdrawn, a stranger |

Are you the one they want to fill up their pockets? Or are you simply worth nothing? Sile, obey, behave, educate Do what they tell you to do Like a slave - Hiiohei! Meanwhile I'm drilling a hole Through the ice Surrounded by white infinity You're keep on rolling in your tread wheel My friend, why don't you just follow me?

The time is right you and I
We will fight the final battle Gone away the bond of passion Death of faith, left aggression We sworn the oath, now it is broken Gone away with deception I'll root out the nest of rebellion Wage of sin, total subjection The ancient law from the old union - obedience ! In the face of judge you regret Sue for mercy before the creating Remove the one for me to end Only way to endless purity Now you find the path of rightness Opens the gate to deepest openness True peace in the place of paradise Will decay Whiplash, flowing tears Resumed respect Supreme power Beats the evil out of you |

Of a weeping lust waiting the revival Fear inside you of a painful nausea It bites your weak soul to suffocate the fire Reach out over hopeless distance - extinguish Feel the king inside you - take a pull The spirit rises you're the one again Nothing left of painful distant memories Feel the strength before the end Reveals the final truth for your comfort Reach out for your minds obsession With shaking hands hopeless distance Blessed emotion your only devotion Demons hunger your Black Roija Imagine rules - changing mood Bitter tears after surge of emotions Once with glory you know the story Liquid years no more tears And with the beast you will release Chained evil out of your withdrawn mind Turn into sickness point of no return With the demon find the leader till you die |

Circling day after day Above the surface in wind's face Is the end cruelly grimaced On the water, water lily's leaf Is rolling on the stream Beside the bluff there she dances Water flea in her wedding Master wind blows waves begin to rise Her fiance tomorrow child Just taken his first breath Take his step and with his bride They fall into ecstasy Wind blows hard they do not see Water lily's leaf is turning With this move it falls down Those lovers almost together Lose their lifes for the others to live Today it is calm Tomorrow it storms But still water For ever flows |

Where are you, my wealth of life? Vanity filling my mind Hole in me in distress Who will fill up my Hollow Heart? Please god never let me fall asleep Make me real -keep away from my imagination Dishearten mind -still looking for another answer Hopeless act -action speak louder than words Throwing all away Meaningless words Nothing left Inside me Where are you, my wealth of life?
