lyrics

Here I am, once again alone
Sitting in a vicious darkened throne
This is not what I was meant to do
Watch me now, can you see me through?

In my heart, loneliness, some sinister dreams
What reality hides in some scenes?
Watch the world die today, a part of me feels
Like it’s drifting away, from my sins

Shadows creeping outside
In shallow rotten crops
Years gone by, left behind
Dry-lander, no raindrops

The sky is getting dark
Sometimes it feels so cold
It’s time to think the chances
The earth is growing old

Fly in the sky, hearing a swan cry
-The whole mankind in demise-
Singing the song for the last time
Fall to the ground, making no sound
-The evil strikes in disguise-
Grace overtook all the rage and the lies

Skies are flaming – seas of death
Air pollution – evil breath
Reckless moments – empty mind
Time has passed for all mankind

Forests burning – seas destroyed
Dying nature – hollow void
Change of season – wind of change
God’s creating something strange

Another breaking dawn
Mind is building war
Take the chance and wonder
Is this worth fighting for?

Feeling like a toy
On a dreadful string
Others may command you
Are you a human being?

No tomorrow, only sorrow
Days so hollow, will we make it through?

Pain – Reign – Disclosure
Kill – Steal – Forsake
Sane – Brain – Exposure
Feel – Weel – Betake

If I could choose, If I had torn a bore
My heart and soul anon wither no more

Fly in the sky, hearing a swan cry
-The whole mankind in demise-
Singing the song for the last time
Fall to the ground, making no sound
-The evil strikes in disguise-
Grace overtook all the rage and the lies

Fly in the sky, hearing a swan cry
-The whole mankind in demise-
Singing the song for the last time
Fall to the ground, making no sound
-The evil strikes in disguise-
Grace overtook all the rage and the cries

Fly in the sky
