 1. Lamentation
 
 A monotonous hammering
 by arms of solid strenght
 lungs of iron breathing steam
 frying through its valves
 
 wheels keep turning back and forth
 just goes on and on
 
 what do you see on the screen
 the inner soul of a machine
 
 lamentation shinning through
 this morbid efficiency
 patterns of unfeeling thoughts
 prevents that they will stop
 
 what do you see on the screen
 the inner soul of a machine
 
 eyes with sharpness analyse
 infailable precision in its work
 lamentation
 shapeless rubbish now take form
 nothing´s useless anymore
 
 what do you see on the screen
 the inner soul of a machine
 
 self-effacing policy
 units die at last
 slaves of real infinity
 replaced or reimproved
 
 what do you see on the screen
 the inner soul of a machine
 
 eyes with sharpness analyse
 infailable precision in its work
 lamentation
 lamentation
 
 
 
 
 2. They
 
 they know my fear, aware of my pain
 they see me falling again and again
 for years a torture with no scars
 a cold remoteness, colder than the light of stars
 
 don´t know what´s expected of me
 what they want to see
 I know my life is a lie
 I´m not supposed to be
 
 the laughs they fade away too slow
 the bad memories won´t go
 I meet emptiness where I turn
 inside I feel the lust of vengeance burn
 
 don´t know what´s expected of me
 what they want to see
 I know my life is a lie
 I´m not supposed to be
 
 a nameless strength fills my body
 ´till the edge
 hardened through the years
 of insanity
 my tormentors, mercy
 
 don´t know what´s expected of me
 what they want to see
 I know my life is a lie
 I´m not supposed to be
 
 
 
 
 3. With Pain
 
 he was never wished to be born
 into this world
 malformed in their eyes
 educated to shut up, an object of
 their lust, turned on by his silent cries
 
 pain is unavoidable
 to be affected is not
 pain was not what got to him,
 appreciation was
 something that he never got
 never time to heal his wounds,
 never time to think
 of what his punishment are for
 
 morality is indefined
 has no meaning for this poor boy
 
 all he ask is why
 why was I not to see the sun
 enjoy me without pain
 just for one day
 
 in the end he found a way, possibly the last
 to rub away derisive smiles
 it was meant as revenge, but also
 as the one and only way to be praised
 
 morality is indefined
 has no meaning for this poor boy
 
 all he ask is why
 why was I not to see the sun
 enjoy me without pain
 just for one day
 
 
 
 
 4. Picture
 
 a mirror, reflecting me
 never lies about who I am
 still silent, staring at me
 so cold, so true it is
 
 dislike what I see
 every line, every contour
 those eyes, are they mine
 scared I am, so scared
 
 can´t change
 the picture that I see
 
 heartbeats has increased
 this light shines through me
 ashamed by this exposion
 can´t live, still won´t die
 
 can´t change
 the picture that I see
 
 shadows out there
 hide me please
 hide now and forever
 
 can´t change
 the picture that I see
 
 
 
 
 5. Legend
 
 forced upon me in a moment of pain
 a saviour of eternal light to fill my open wounds
 
 a legend is soon to fall
 dreams are shattered, makes no sense
 to worship is to crawl
 just a hero built on our confidence
 
 confidence
 our confidence
 
 a blizzard is soon to abate
 but the frozen souls will never thaw
 all faith turns to hate
 a faith which forced you by it´s law
 
 forced upon me in a moment of pain
 a saviour of eternal light to fill my open wounds
 
 a legend is soon to fall
 dreams are shattered, makes no sense
 to worship is to crawl
 just a hero built on our confidence
 
 confidence
 our confidence
 
 a star is soon to die
 and shadows will no longer be
 the last tears will I cry
 from the last eye able to see
 
 a legend is soon to fall
 dreams are shattered, makes no sense
 to worship is to crawl
 just a hero built on our confidence
