1. Ashes For Supper
Ashes For Supper
(D.Djordjevic)
Malicious minds, superior kind
aren't waiting for our final hour.
They're sending plague to make us die
and burn our bodies into the fire.
Chorus:
AAA!
They will eat our ashes for supper!
Slowly caressed by the hand of death
we sleep, we burn,
Slowly carresed by the hand of death
our flesh and bones to ashes turn.
Chorus:
AAA!
They will eat your ashes for supper!
2. Dark Soul
Dark Soul
(D. Djordjevic)
Elegy for the lost ones
travels through desolate fields
sound of footsteps shatter this melody
merging with the mist...
He's walking without reason,
feeling as one with the moor.
Confused, yet so calm
planting the seed of agony
deep into his inner soil.
A perfect mournful panorama, framed.
Maybe one day this junkyard of thoughts
will be unfolded to someone else.
someone worthy enough.
Are you worthy enough?
Dark soul... Dark soul...
And slowly the panorama blackens
clouds are pouring down his sadness
small footpath is leading him further
where only the blinded ones can tread.
Dark soul...
And slowly the panorama blackens
clouds are pouring down his sadness
small footpath is leading him further
where only the blinded ones can tread.
Are you worthy enough?
3. The Evil That Men Do (Iron Maiden cover)
Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade
Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with the slaughter of innocence
But I will pray for her, I will call her name out loud
I would bleed for her, if I could only see her now...
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Balancing on a ledge, living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge, you know, you know
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
Circle of fire, my baptism of joy at an end it seems
The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me
And I will pray for you, someday I may return
Don't you cry for me, beyond is where I learn
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge, you know, you know
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge, you know, you know
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil, the evil, the evil that men do
The evil, the evil, the evil that men do
4. Hallowed Be Thy Name (Iron Maiden cover)
I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time
Cos at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole
The sands of time for me are running low
When the priest comes to read me the last rites
I take a look through the bars at the last sights
Of a world that has gone very wrong for me
Can it be there's some sort of error
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end not some crazy dream
Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not so easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears they flow but why am I crying
After all I am not afraid of dying
Don't believe that there is never an end
As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Someone calls from a cell "God be with you"
If there's a God then why has he let me die?
As I walk all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away
Mark my words please believe my soul lives on
Please don't worry now that I have gone
I've gone beyond to see the truth
When you know that your time is close at hand
maybe then you'll begin to understand
Life down there is just a strange illusion.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hallowed be thy name
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hallowed be thy name
5. Escape (Metallica cover)
Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy
I know I'm my best friend
No one cares, but I'm so much stronger
I'll fight until the end
To escape from the true false world
Undamaged destiny
Can't get caught in the endless circle
Ring of stupidity
Out for my own, out to be free
One with my mind, they just can't see
No need to hear things that they say
Life's for my own to live my own way
Rape my mind and destroy my feelings
Don't tell me what to do
I don't care now 'cause I'm on my side
And I can see through you
Feed my brain with your so-called standards
Who says that I ain't right?
Break away from your common fashion
See through your blurry sight
Out for my own, out to be free
One with my mind, they just can't see
No one to hear things that they say
Life's for my own to live my own way
See them try to bring the hammer down
No damn chains can hold me to the ground
Life's for my own, to live my own way...
6. Flight Of Icarus (Iron Maiden cover)
As the sun breaks above the ground
An old man stands on the hill
As the ground warms to the first rays of light
A bird song shatters the still
His eyes are ablaze, see the madman in his gaze
Fly, on your way, like an eagle, fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle, fly and touch the sun
Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God, my father, I'll fly
His eyes seem so glazed as he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave
Fly, on your way, like an eagle, fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle, fly tuch the sun
Fly, on your way, like an eagle, fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle, fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle, fly tuch the sun
On your way, like an eagle, fly...
7. Slave To The Dark (Iced Earth cover)
A twisted state of mind, torn between two worlds
One of which the new me hates and the one that's coming true
The power is unleashed, they perish at my gaze
But am I really in control or am I just a slave
I called upon this god to deliver unto me
To grant what I desire he brought me to my knees
He turned his back on me and filled me with his lies
Ask and I received damnation was the price
I signed my name in blood, didn't read the fine prints
Now I'm just a puppet god for the devils own descent
Bound and shackled here forever damned a slave
Fallen bloody tears can't wash the pain away
[Chorus]
All at once it's clear to me
Damnation and destiny
A slave to darkness shall I be
Damnation and destiny
And so I must repent or will I be destroyed
Will the one that lives in me release me from this lie
And will the wrath of god have mercy on my soul
Or humilate me, desecrate me, like his only son
[Repeat Chorus]
8. Black Tears (Edge Of Sanity cover)
When I'm in this state of mind
I'm wishing I was blind. Sometimes life is
more than pain, to me
I feel the power of my grief. Death would be
such a relief. All the secrets that I hide
would die, with me.
Depression is my only friend. Will this
torture never end? Let me carry on to
the dreamers sky.
I keep crying in my dreams.
Can you hear my endless screams?
When I fade away I fade, away.
[Chorus:] THIS FLUID ON MY CHEEK, IT DRAINS ME
I GET WEAK. MY HEART IS COLD & BLEAK
BLACK BLOOD. BLACK TEARS.
Life is like a masquerade. In dept to myself,
but I can't pay. Soon I'll call it all a day, away.
I've never felt what you call guilt.
I still believe "Do what thou wilt"
My sorrowwill destroy the world I've built.
[Chorus]
9. For Whom The Bell Tolls (Metallica cover)
Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun on they run through the endless gray
On they fight for they are right, yes, but who's to say?
For a hill men would kill - Why? They do not know
Suffered wounds test their pride
Men of five still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on...
For whom the bell tolls
Take a look to the sky just before you die
It's the last time he will
Blackened roar, massive roar, fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now are his eyes to this mystery
He hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on...
For whom the bell tolls!
10. Fabric (Dark Tranquillity cover)
scattered throughout now
indefinite form
willed to find strangers
in the wickedest state
when it comes upon you my friend
fear not - it makes us men
hidden within ourselves now
lured into hiding out of sight
creation in purity
we don´t need no host
suck it in
it waits for noone
take it down
the coming of descent
fiery changeling
reddened and frail
perspire to save it
the remnant of this game
if it launches again today
will our lives begin again
turning away from tides of lust
stronger return against all odds
suck it in
it waits for noone
take it down
the coming of descent
raised to take stand
to separate grace
shown in the wake of new light
seeing it will break
the flavour of aquired taste
another boundary yet to face
witness the revolution
the fabric of essence
come again
