Can’t you see the fire spread?
We are the reason that this whole place is burning
I know it's easier to hold your breath
But it is time to stop the wheel from turning
Can’t you see what we’ve created?
We treated our home relentlessly
The diamonds on your crown are stained with blood
Death washed ashore with the flood
We turned the oceans red
//We turned the oceans red//
Cleared the woodlands
Watched the cancer spread
//Watched the cancer spread//
To dig our own grave
To dig our own grave
Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Death is in our own hands
Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Soon we will reach the end
Not long, until we vanish
We have to pay the price
We are the tarnished
We all will suffer! We will go down!
We all will suffer! We will slowly drown!
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Was it worth all the blood spilled in vain
We dried the soil now we dance for rain
Brought the drought to
This place
Was never meant to be our own
We thought we conquered
Nature
Takes back her home
//Takes back her home//
Welcome to the purgatory
You don’t have to die for your own hell
Feeding off the ordinary
Blessing our world with plastic oceans
Wreaking havoc along all of the coasts
I’ve had enough of watching people ripping all of the souls
Appart
By the distance
But I never missed it
I miss the time that I had without thinking about all this mischief
I am the Emperor
Euphoria
Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Death is in our own hands
Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Soon we will reach the end
I am the bearer of light
I keep the demons alive
This is the end
The end of the line
Hold onto me, we are all gonna die

Blood of the Gods
Bathing in their demise
Ripped in half
You’re nearly satisfied
I know it’s too soon, you’re too far away
Along the shoreline I walked in complete disarray
Touched the water to see my reflection erase
Among the thousands why do I have to pray
Like a puppeteer
Whispered in my ear
couldn’t get rid of all the threads
They won’t disappear
Generations
Fear their own nations
The only prison is my fear of your patience
Burning my lungs
Inhaling the ashes
Encased by the embers.
Patiently waiting for the storm to end the drought
After days without rain
I need to smell drying grass again
Promise me I can feel the sensation
Again and again and again
After days without rain
Accompanied with the pain
the sunlight shines on my broken skin
I give in, sing me your finest hymn
The trumpets sound
Witness the end
Herald a new dawn
For all it’s worth
I Witness the end
Of all the kingdoms you promised to bless
For all it’s worth
I witness the end
Of all the landmarks gone up in flames
Sending forth all of your puppets
Blaming everyone else but yourself
This is the apocalypse
Before the storm there will be eternal drought
After days without rain
I need to smell drying grass again
Promise me I can feel the sensation
Again and again and again
After days without rain
Accompanied with the pain
the sunlight shines on my broken skin
I give in, sing me your finest hymn

Insomnia

Insomnia
Give me silence
I lost hope
Seeking the menace within
Insomnia
Flashing lights awake
The demons of the mind
I can’t escape
Bound to the ruins
Gaze up to the sky
Searching for answers in the darkness where I reside
Everyday getting lost in the past
Wondering how long will my light last
Tearing everything down into the abyss
Ravage your heart and swallow it whole
Open your mind and become one with the abyss
There is no hope
There is no hope
Take me away
I can't bear to stay
Tied to the burning pyre
Show me the pain
My eyes burn again
The sight of my desire
Fight my dreams
Fight the only thing
That reminds me that I’m still human
Cut my ties
My ties
Don’t wake me up
Left to drown in this trance all alone
Don’t wake me up
Feeling alive
Walls covered in ice
I am trapped inside this nightmare
Covered in flames
Tied up in chains
But it’s still better to feel the pain
Than feeling not a thing
Take me away
I can't bear to stay
Tied to the burning pyre
Show me the pain
My eyes burn again
The sight of my desire
Fight my dreams
Fight the only thing
That reminds me that I’m still human
Cut my ties
My ties
Insomnia
Insomnia
Insomnia
Insomnia
Insomnia
Give me silence
I lost hope
Give me violence
Insomnia
Give me silence
I lost hope
Give me guidance
Lead me through the night
Show me what I can’t see
Reality
Open up my eyes
Lead me through the night
Show me what I can’t see
Reality
Open up my eyes

Talking to you
It makes me suffocate
It makes me suffocate
Stuck in my throat
But I can’t swallow it
Swallow that feeling
Are you even aware of
All the things that I have sacrificed for you
My heart remains shattered to pieces
One
More day in paradise
For you while I reside in hell
Every single aspect that you stand for
Is merely something you enact to be praised for
Do you even realize
The damage you’ve caused
There’s not a thing you can do
To make this right
I have to tell myself
I have to tell myself
Value
These moments just enough
To get through the next in line
Finally had enough
Finally had enough
Isn’t it time to move
I have to
Get away
Break out of the cycle
Break out of the cycle
You taught me one big thing
I can’t rely on anything
Take back the knife you stabbed into my back
Let me leave
Let me live
I was
Abandoned
Deceived
Better of with anyone else
I hold on to the rope
Still got some hope
Erase these Memories
Am I enough
Am I someone to give people light in the dark
Reach for my hand
Pull me out of this hole
Give me strength
Give me hope
Give me strength
Give me hope
I have to tell myself
I have to tell myself
Value
These moments just enough
To get through the next in line
Finally had enough
Finally had enough
Isn’t it time to move
I have to
Get away
Break out of the cycle
Show me the way to break
Break out of the cycle

Downfall

These days are nearly gone
The sun sets
The skyline shines bright red
It’s warm in my hands
A can of beer
Ice cold
This image burned itself
Into my head
It helps to give up on my inner tension
It soothes my soul
I try to take control
Can’t let the memories go
I’ll never get the chance to witness
Something this graceful
This is all I have left
Dipping my feet in the lake
Challenge the waves to submission
Feeding my head with the pictures of the past
With my head under water
Still breathing
Nothing lasts
Soon there’s noone left to blame
There’s nothing left to change
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Soon there’s noone left to blame
There’s nothing left to change
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
This is our paradise
Being sacrificed
Right before our eyes
We are paralyzed
Our faith won’t suffice
We brought this upon ourselves
Blossoms
They are gone with the wind
The Signs
Of the storm that will reign
Showing its colours
The sky is grey
Blessed
It’s the start of the end
The charms
They are ought to protect
The sound of thunder it is getting in closer
Louder than the sound of the waves
But almost silent in a way
I count my days
Louder than the sound of the waves
But almost silent in a way
I count my days
Louder than the sound of the waves
But almost silent in a way
I count my days
Soon there’s noone left to blame
There’s nothing left to change
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Soon there’s noone left to blame
There’s nothing left to change
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
This is our paradise
Being sacrificed
Right before our eyes
We are paralyzed
Our faith won’t suffice
We brought this upon ourselves
