1. State of Panic
Can't you see I am the one to end up all your pain. I give you peace and then I give you hell again. I'm the one to stand behind and breathin' down your neck. I'd like to caress you and to watch you when you're dead.
I'm the flood, you'll be drowned in your own blood. I'm the rain, I wash your sins away. "Take a life, waste your time in bitterness."
Can't you see, I am the one to answer all your prayers. Don't blame it on me, don't you know life ain't fair. I don't mind your pain and I don't mind your fear at all. Better get dressed black, you're heading for a fall.
Back to back with the naked smell of fear. Don't step back, you'll be the first to fall. "Take a life, waste your time in bitterness. Take a life, waste your time with me."
And don't think I'll forget you, true devotion's hard to find. It's only I'm not with you every night. And don't think I'll forgive you, you'll keep a place in my mind. Sorry, I'm not with you, not tonight.
Well I'm your state of panic. Why don't you treat me this way? I'm your state of panic, so here I am!
2. Run
I should have known it from the first step, should have known it frommy birth, I won't reach my destination. The flesh is so weak, I've tried to fit in, but now I'm back, spit out again. Spit out again!
I ran away and I found nothing. I ran further, I found none. Try to return to my fire. Have I gone to far, too far to turn back? From here it ain't going further. What have I done?
Under a tired sun I crave, so lost'n'cold. Will I ever return to the once, I've left behind? I followed my dream, and now I know what it means to beg. Forgive me for I've done it all wrong. I'm walking trough the lonely rain, forget myself, try to forget my pain. My leading fire fades away, don't leave me back so old'n'dirty.
When I look into the mirror, I can see your face no more. Was it me who let you pass by? Alone'n'broken, faraway from home. Oh hear my prayers. Fire, walk with me.
So I returned from the outside, crawl back, find no place left to hide. Sometimes I wish that I could cry. Oh come on, look at me now. I'm not afraid to show you, what I was not able to feel yet. All I've learned was pain'n'punishment. Punishment!
So I keep on running away.
3. Bark 'n' Bite
Get shelter like a friend, or get your ass kicked seriously. It all depends on you and it ain't a problem to me. You can stare into the face of a man, but be shure you will never see behind the veil. Put your faith in me and all your hopes will soon die by a shot in the head. Don't turn your back on a smiling face, don't turn your back on praying hands.
Like an open book I never was, I'm a grinning menace, so damn easy to trust. You can punish me, if I let you do this, but if the point is on me you will be dead. I live in a state of of silence, this is where I wanna stay. Well balanced but close to anger, well boy that's me. A man has the right to live by his own law, free from pressure. I know you ain't better than me, no one is better than me. Understand the way I am, don't prove me wrong. One look, one touch and you'll know what I came for. Dogs that bark don't bite, that ain't my kind at all. Do you think I'm kidding, think I lie? Who knows, it's hard to see the truth behind my signs. Don't turn your back on a smiling face. The same old wishes, please don't let me die. The same old answer'n'the same old lie!
4. Clean
Waited so long, don't wait anymore. I give myself just a little more blood from my soul. "Hiding in the backyard of my mind."
Life's getting cold, nothing unto hold. I feel the ice is getting thin. Waste so much time, standing in line, hiding myself behind a mask and a smile.
"Hiding in the backyard of my mind."
You'll be just a victim of my own confusion. I'm the cancer-cleaner, you will see me eye to eye. Like a preachers own demon he sure you are on the wrong side.
So won't you change the side? I'll wait for you.
I'm the cancer-cleaner, sorry for my obtrusiveness. You're the preachers own demon, well this ain't your time to stay alive. Kill to reach your state of mind, kill out of boredom. Kill to show you're in a position. Kill everything your scared of and you're free.
"it came out from the backyard of my mind."
Now you know me as I really am a selfish piece of ignorance. Will you still be a so-called friend and lend a helping hand to me? Step back in line.
5. Ravenwings
Give me ravenwings and teach me how to fly. With my undead eyes I devour the sky.
I'll scratch your skin with my fingertips, and lick you clean with blood tripped lips.
Spread your dark wings'n'fly, let us caress the sky. See me!
I'm the last one left behind, the only to lead the blind. I'm the one to bring you home, I'm the good son.
Blood, fire'n'thorns, I'm the good son.
Won't you take hand, just for one ride. We light my symbol across the dark sky.
I make you die slow, I make you bleed, don't tell me I'm wrong, no. Don't look at me!
I am walking anger, fall on your knees'n'pray. Hurt me! Try it harder, try again, you can't take away what's left for me. For all to see, the prophecy.
Blood, fire'n'thorns, I'm the good son.
6. Rain
You've hurt me.
But what have I done. Time went by, I can't remember anything. Have I really done what I've promised so many times? A thousand lies in all those sleepless nights. God no, don't punish me that hard, don't punish me.
I'm still your son!
I wish the rain would fall down harder own me, oh could you wash my past away from me. Everything's gone, anything moved toward its end, now it's just me standing in
