1. ...for a New Kingdom
2. Back to Life
Fly away
And shine in the night
I want you to stay with me
And come back to life
You're just a piece of coal
In the furnace of the world
But you should be a diamond
Otherwise you'll rise with the smoke
Hold on to my words
Lie to yourself if believe the truth
Weeds cast over the path of your soul
See an endless ocean
When you look in my eyes
Across the sea of tears
I can't live another night
Fly away...
3. Your End
Have you ever been to those abandoned places
Where your feelings overcome you
And you feel the deepest blue?
The moon is shining pale
Turns the land old and grey
The stars are dying out
Your sigh's just a loud shout
What's your soul worth
If you have no purpose
What's your body worth
If you're burden down with sin
What's your life worth
If you're afraid of death
You'll understand everything
When you achieve your end.
What's your soul worth
If you have no purpose
What's your body worth
If you're burden down with sin
What's your life worth
If you're afraid of death
You'll understand everything
When you achieve your end.
4. In the Womb
The navel string is a galled rope
You’re hanging in the womb
A cell hallowed your mother
Your birth is so close
She will be purified and
Consecrated by your blood
When you’ll be born
Your death is so close
5. Promised Land
I've never been so scared
I hear the deep space symphony
The flowers in the velvet sky
Like a quiet agony
Hear the cries
Feel the pain
Imagine you're alone
Over the atmosphere
In the airless space
Imagine you're alone
Seek the promised land
Have you found it?
My soul is in flames
I left my home to seek a new one
As the purple sunrise
A new life has begun
6. Saviour
Catch my blood with your chalice
When I'm stretched on the cross
Walk with me in the Eden
When I'm back from my blood
I'm your saviour
Kill me
Take my life and you'll be free
I'm your saviour
Bury me
And my dust turns you free
Your jaded soul will be peaceful
When my spirits vaporized
To clear your mind - Humankind
Let me into your heart
I'm your saviour
Kill me
Take my life and you'll be free
I'm your saviour
Bury me
And my dust turns you free
Catch my blood with your chalice
When I'm stretched on the cross
Walk with me in the Eden
When I'm back from my blood
When I'm back
From my blood
Let into your heart!
7. The Mourning
When you belonged to me
We were together as one
I asked you take me away
But you left me, now I'm alone
I've known the solitude
Like a fallen leaf
I'm a lonely man
Like a prodigal son
I miss you so
I would give my blood for you
That you could be here
When you belonged to me
You kept me alive
I got some remembrance
But you left me, my soul will die
I made a pilgrimage
To your grave
I felt the helplessness
Like a tumbling stone
I miss you so
I would give my blood for you
That you could be here
I'm crying
I'm bleeding
I'm sweating
My soul is freezing
I'll touch you
I'll kiss you
I'll hold you again
In your coffin
I miss you
But the mourning
Is only selfishness
I have to know
That you'll never come back
And my blood
Will flow away
With my vitality
I have to know
That you'll never come back
8. down...
