  1. Straight To Hell
  Hear me, what I've got to say 
 I know you and get you anyway 
 See me walking by your side 
 I'm with you forever day and night 
 
 Hey man, I'm your worst choice 
 You don't know, I want it so 
 Hey man, I'm your dark voice 
 You don't know where we will go 
 Straight to hell, straight to hell 
 
 Listen, listen what you say 
 I've taught you and you have learned your lesson 
 Feel me, when you feel the pain 
 I want you and I am going to get you.. anyway 
 
 I look like the easy way 
 The truth to be found 
 I seem to be innocent 
 I'm coming around, I'm coming around 
 
 I'm your worst choice 
 You don't know, I want it so 
 Hey man, I'm your dark voice 
 You don't know where we will go 
 You don't know where we will go 
 Straight to hell, straight to hell 
 
 I look like the easy way 
 The truth to be found 
 I seem to be innocent 
 I'm coming around, I'm coming around 
 
 I'm your worst choice 
 You don't know, I want it so 
 Hey man, I'm your dark voice 
 You don't know where we will go 
 You don't know where we will go 
 Straight to hell, straight to hell
 
 
 
  2. Days Of December
  The clouds have prepared for rain and storm. 
 The chill of the wind has frozen all the pain. 
 I know in my room it's dry and warm. 
 but I cannot stand to scan the walls in vain. 
 
 White and wonderful the snow covers my hair. 
 I reach out but you're not there. 
 
 In the days of december 
 I'm lonely ever since you're gone. 
 In the night I remember 
 your frozen hands that kept me warm. 
 Im the days of december. 
 
 I never seen sense in future plans. 
 I know that the time will make it up somehow. 
 But good, how I miss you, there's no words 
 to tell you how it looks inside myself now. 
 
 Cold and beautiful, 
 your vision in the ice. 
 I reach out but you're not there. 
 
 In the days of december 
 I'm lonely ever since you're gone. 
 In the night I remember 
 your frozen hands that kept me warm. 
 Im the days of december.
 
 
 
  3. Back In Time
  What's this scenery, I can see it clearly. 
 I'm the visionary, it's the moment of my birth. 
 
 The intention's here, this was how I planned to be 
 But really shows the weaker part of me. 
 
 I wish that I could turn back time. 
 
 Journey far beyond my memory, 
 Driven back in time. 
 Travel to my secret history, 
 Driven back in time, 
 Driven back in time, 
 Driven back in time. 
 
 Though the centuries, I tried to get experienced. 
 Now I have to see, wisdom starts where knowledge ends. 
 
 Once again I've failed, I didn't use my precious time 
 To fulfill my part, to remember me that I'm 
 
 Liked into the global vision 
 
 Journey far beyond my memory...
 
 
 
  4. Alive But Dead
  As I walk the streets I feel no pain, 
 there is no love or hate, can't see no certain state I'm in. 
 And a fog has laid itself on my heart 
 like this misty morning as this cloudy day begins. 
 
 Still I wonder should I be afraid 
 about what's happening and how long has it been -don't know. 
 Why did come this shadow in my head 
 like I have lost my soul, like I'm alive but dead. 
 
 As I walk the streets I feel no fear, 
 although I notice that there is no feeling anymore. 
 And I try to send my mind back to the times 
 when I was able to live something to the core. 
 
 Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead, 
 I'm just a slave to what they've said. (this decay) 
 Still I'm alive but I feel dead. 
 Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead, 
 I'm just a slave to when you call, (my disease) 
 Still I'm alive but I must be dead. 
 
 Alive but dead 
 can't fill my head 
 
 Darkness, there's darkness everywhere. 
 You gotta help me out of here, 
 I don't want to stay alive without the capability to feel!
 
 
 
  5. Deep In The Blackest Hole
  Hey, what have they done to you? 
 Say, do you mean what you do? 
 Just like a spark that fell aside, or what - 
 you're telling me you're happy but I know you're not. 
 
 I look into your eyes and see your heart is black. 
 Are you afraid of me or why don't you look back? 
 You're telling me to follow, do it like you've said, 
 you'll get me never, never, never... 
 
 What has happened to you life? 
 Do you really want it so, 'cause 
 
 I don't want to be like you, the time will come, 
 when everything too late 
 Deep in the blackest hole. 
 I'll never be like you and you will end 
 frustrated, full on hate, 
 deep in the blackest hole! 
 
 You don't like to see the world 
 like it is, you try to change it all. 
 You're in defense, only appologize, 
 you're telling me you're lucky but I know your lies. 
 
 I look into your eyes and see your heart turns red 
 like if you're wounded but no drop of blood is shed. 
 You don't look for a cure, instead you're hurting me, 
 You'll get me never, never, never... 
 
 What has happened to you life? 
 Everything you had is missing. 
 
 I don't want to be like you, the time will come, 
 when everything too late 
 Deep in the blackest hole. 
 I'll never be like you and you will end 
 frustrated, full on hate, 
 deep in the blackest hole! 
 
 What has happened to you life? 
 Do you really want it so, 'cause 
 
 I don't want to be like you, the time will come, 
 when everything too late 
 Deep in the blackest hole. 
 I'll never be like you and you will end 
 frustrated, full on hate, 
 deep in the blackest hole!
 
 
 
  6. The Mirror In Your Eyes
  I've never believed in miracles, I rarely even cried 
 But you never know the day when things will change 
 You came to me and gave me back what I have left unpaid 
 And to see myself, it felt so very strange 
 
 The mirror in your eyes (the mirror in your eyes) 
 Is telling me what I've become alive and that is why 
 The mirror never lies (there's pain inside your eyes ) 
 The mirror in your eyes 
 
 I never thought of consequences bringing life to fall 
 Though I want to love instead I pull you down 
 How can I be this way when I don't feel like this at all 
 And you know how much I need to be around 
 
 The mirror in your eyes (the mirror in your eyes) 
 Is telling me what I've become alive and that is why 
 The mirror never lies (there's pain inside your eyes ) 
 The mirror in your eyes 
 
 Painful...I'm learning 
 In hell I am churning 
 I see my reflection in you 
 
 A monster returning 
 A heart that's still burning 
 I see my reflection in you 
 
 Thankful I'm learning 
 The candles are burning 
 Don't know where I'm turning 
 The mirror is blurring 
 In hell I am burning 
 
 The mirror in your eyes (the mirror in your eyes) 
 Is telling me what I've become alive and that is why 
 There's pain inside your eyes (the mirror never lies) 
 The mirror in your eyes
 
 
 
  7. Black In Mind
  I've seen it coming, it's got to be. 
 No illusions at the turning of the century. 
 All our wishes - forever free - 
 all destroyed because somehow we lost the masterkey. 
 
 Leaving my dreams far behind, 
 got no ambitions in time if only I'm so 
 
 Black in mind, When there's no point in making it. 
 Black in mind. When there's no hope for love, I'm so 
 Black in mind. When these madmen are wasting it. 
 Black in mind. I don't want to be sacrificed for 
 
 a territorial war. Leave me alone, I'm so black in mind. 
 
 You made me want it, too blind to see 
 that all it gave me were illusions of reality. 
 My eyes got used to the things they've seen, 
 now where's the difference between my life and the TV screen.
 
 
 
  8. Higher Than The Sky
  So, now my time has come. 
 I will be dead and gone 
 from the earth's face. 
 It is my destiny, 
 this time I cannot cannot hide 
 from this cruel fate. 
 
 A never ending memory, 
 a life before my eyes. 
 Whatever comes, whatever's been, 
 my pocket full of lies. 
 
 Like an arrow in the air, 
 falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be 
 
 Higher than the sky, we're 
 higher than the sky. 
 
 An ordinary flight, 
 who could imagine this 
 will be our death cell. 
 
 No miracle in sight, 
 We're diving faster now, 
 as for as I can tell. 
 I see the faces passing by, 
 there's fear inside this eyes. 
 
 They all will be my company 
 we're brothers now for life. 
 
 Like an arrow in the air, 
 falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be 
 
 Higher than the sky, we're 
 higher than the sky.
 
 
 
  9. Spiritual Awakening
  Thank you, mother. Thank you for my life. 
 Forgive me, father. For I was running blind. 
 
 Time to prove the evolution 
 First to feel it, last to get. 
 Spiritual Awakening 
 Rushing through these years of madness, 
 Next time leave no opinions out. 
 Spiritual Awakening 
 
 Tell me, answer, in synchronicity. 
 Intuition, open doors for me. 
 
 Time to push the evolution 
 First to feel it, last to get. 
 Spiritual Awakening 
 Rushing through these years of madness, 
 Never leave no opinions out. 
 Spiritual Awakening 
 
 Spiritual... spiritual 
 I never felt this way, running blind my way 
 I never felt this way, spiritual awake 
 
 Thank you, brother, mirror of myself. 
 Join me, sister, energetic well.
 
 
 
  10. The Crawling Chaos
  It was the year of madness and insanity. 
 There was no other cure for my disease. 
 The overdose - I took it �cause I had to flee, 
 it was nearly a journey that had no return, 
 the fever burned, I was gone -delirium. 
 
 There I was striding to heaven and they were calling me from beyond and I 
 heard: "Don't look back!" 
 But I did and my eyes, they can't forget that sight 
 �cause all water and land was dead. 
 
 Destroyed, denied, all tears undried, 
 the crawling chaos comes. 
 The twilight died, eternal night, 
 the crawling chaos comes. 
 
 A giant maelstrom, absorbing what we'd left back, 
 the deserts of cadaverous, mortal loam 
 and jungles of decay and decadence, where once 
 had been the homelands of my people, 
 temples of my ancestors, they were gone, dead and gone 
 
 Then the cracks in the ground, they were breaking up 
 and all water was streaming in, 
 manifesting the sight of the dead Berlin and London and Paris were graves.
 
 
 
  11. Six Feet Under Ground
  Just alone, they're gone away
 Six feet under ground
 This was only yesterday
 Six feet under ground
 
 I've had my time, I've had my place
 I've gone too far, stuck in disgrace
 What is it that I have not found
 Six feet under ground
 
 Let me go, let me see clear
 Let me look around
 Something's waiting but not here
 Six feet under ground
 
 I've had my time, I've had my place
 I've gone too far, stuck in disgrace
 What is it that I have not found
 Six feet under ground
 
 How long will it take to understand
 How long will it take to comprehend
 To find my universe I have to let it go
 So long, so long...
 
 I've had my time, I've had my place
 I've gone too far, stuck in disgrace
 What is it that I have not found
 Six feet under ground
 
 Way back in time from ancient ways
 Discover what was lost in haze
 This is what I still have not found
 Six feet under ground
 
 I'm six feet...
 
 
 
  12. Just Another Wasted Day
  See these people like me, living in this dirty place
 Feel this deep depression in these streets that lame the brain
 
 It kills the will that drives me on
 'Cause where's no hope all power's gone
 Why am I here? A senseless birth
 I'm not afraid to leave this earth
 
 Heal these hollow eyes that keep on staring at these walls
 Fill the empty space that's in these heads where chaos crawls
 
 'Cause from the mud there comes disease
 A new born hate disturbs the peace
 A fatal end to all my grief
 I've lost my pride, my self belief
 
 I get my food from an unknown hand
 I did nothing for it, understand
 
 Still I'm waiting for a reason that could make a difference, but
 This is just another wasted day
 Give me something to rely on, I don't know where I am going
 This is just another wasted day
 
 Hear this voiceless calling in a world of noisy gear
 Find the answer for a human child why it is here
 
 'Cause from the mud there comes disease
 A new born hate disturbs the peace
 A fatal end to all my grief
 I've lost my pride, my self belief
 
 Not only out of work, we're out of all
 It seems this world's for all of us to small
 
 
 
  13. From The Cradle To The Grave
  There is a window out of pain, 
 but the grief will come again, 
 swallow all the light and steal the sleep tonight. 
 I'll never see the day to take it all away. 
 
 There was a time to play my cards, 
 drown my anchor in the hearts, 
 find the tracks to love and get the tricks to shove. 
 I never found a way to make it here to stay. 
 
 My world is dark and out of touch. 
 I'm left alone a bit too much. 
 What you see is what you get, 
 but when you can't there's nothing left. 
 I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave. 
 
 My world is full of mortal scenes 
 that blind my eyesand steal my dreams. 
 What you feel is what you get, 
 but when you can't there's nothing left. 
 I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave. 
 
 My world is dark and out of touch. 
 I'm left alone a bit too much. 
 What you see is what you get, 
 but when you can't there's nothing left. 
 My world is full of mortal scenes 
 that blind my eyesand steal my dreams. 
 I can't see of feel it yet and as I can't there's nothing left. 
 I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave. 
 I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave. 
 I'll miss you from the cradle to the grave.
 
 
 
  14. Medley (Don't Fear The Winter - Black In Mind - Firestorm - Sent By The Devil - Lost In The Ice)
  I've seen it coming, it's got to be. 
 No illusions at the turning of the century. 
 All our wishes - forever free - 
 all destroyed because somehow we lost the masterkey. 
 
 Leaving my dreams far behind, 
 got no ambitions in time if only I'm so 
 
 Black in mind, When there's no point in making it. 
 Black in mind. When there's no hope for love, I'm so 
 Black in mind. When these madmen are wasting it. 
 Black in mind. I don't want to be sacrificed for 
 a territorial war. Leave me alone, I'm so black in mind. 
 
 You made me want it, too blind to see 
 that all it gave me were illusions of reality. 
 My eyes got used to the things they've seen, 
 now where's the difference between my life and the TV screen.
 
 Spirits coming from the mind, 
 waking up my deepest horrors, 
 capture my thoughts, make me blind. 
 
 Weird, 'cause I don't want to see 
 the abyss of my possibilities. 
 
 Scared I can't look away. 
 
 It has come to my side. 
 Sister demon - my bride. 
 
 I want you, I need you 
 and I have set you free. 
 You're always right behind me, 
 I know the devil's sent you to me. 
 You want me, you need me, 
 now that I've set you free. 
 Look always right behind you, 
 You know the devil's sent me to you. 
 
 What has started as a longing 
 almost is possession now, 
 it drives me again and again. 
 Put a light into your window, 
 maybe I can find a hold. 
 I run against myself 'till I find the end. 
 
 Sent by the devil
