The palaces from the stories/ That I heard when I was child I believed that some day/ I would get to see them His Excellency/ Sitting on his giant throne But now I finally understand / That he doesn't live there anymore The faith of the children/ Is beginning to falter Their Father has no power / Even on his own descendants The King has become homeless/ He hast lost everything The kingdom has collapsed/ His name has been forgotten Standing on the edge of the open grave/ What is the right direction Is that place really just a fable/ And is the white man just a liar "*"Whole your life, you have tried To reach for the sky, but why And finally you realized everything is fabrication"*" Why is the hallowed name of lord/ Locked in a secret chamber They only want to make you blind/ And live your life in obedience I see the palaces burning/ Taking memories with them in the sky The ashes of the crown/ Are soaring on the ground "*"Whole your life, you have tried To reach for the sky, but why And finally you realized everything is fabrication"*" I have been misled my whole life I'm awake and I don't believe in tales The forsaken kingdom/ Ruins of the Paradise Tainted, annihilated/ This was anticipated We gave our own freedom/ A futile sacrifice But we were vindicated/ Finally medicated "*"Whole your life, you have tried To reach for the sky, but why And finally you realized everything is fabrication Death is eternal/The paradise is just a slum Completely empty and full of scum"*" Fabrication!

Slaying one's own brothers Killing the memories from the past Running the holocaust one eye open Hills of corpses are piled by fathers A sick dream is becoming real All this is a part of the vengeance Against the pain of the childhood traumas One man created a horrible monster full of hate That place is not really a land of Cyrus (Kill the virus!) Rather the hell on earth Oppressed enemies are praying for mercy but no-one can hear it All this is a part of the vengeance Against the pain of the childhood traumas One man created a horrible monster full of hate "*"Honor is award of cruel deeds Massacres and uniforms Ground had better taste good under boots The most ironic are the leader's roots"*" Over a million slaves were asphyxiated And everyone turned a blind eye All of them were humiliated No chance to try to defy All this is a part of the vengeance Against the pain of the childhood traumas One man created a horrible monster full of hate "*"Honor is award of cruel deeds Massacres and uniforms Ground had better taste good under boots The most ironic are the leader's roots Women cry and children die All is instant, no time for goodbyes Secrets and irony weigh a lot The whole system is full of rot"*" The deeds you have done will never be forgotten The deeds you have done will never be forgiven "*"Honor is award of cruel deeds Massacres and uniforms Ground had better taste good under boots The most ironic are the leader's roots Women cry and children die All is instant, no time for goodbyes Secrets and irony weigh a lot The whole system is full of rot "*"

If to live is to die/ I want to know why Is this life meant to be just pain and suffering Only one thing is sure in this world When it starts to rain there is no return Do you think ending all is the only answer You don't need to take the place of a prancer It rains and rains for this whole damn night It will rain a lot more until you'll see the light Death is not the answer today I'm not going to tell you why I know it's fucking insane 'cause We're already dying all the time "*"It feels so cold when the sky keeps mourning on The sky keeps mourning on It feels so cold 'cause my heart cannot move on Heart cannot move on"*" LET IT FUCKING RAIN What is that voice inside my head? I'm trying to think clear but just hear it instead I know for sure that it wants me dead It makes me walk where angels fear to tread "*"It feels so cold when the sky keeps mourning on The sky keeps mourning on It feels so cold 'cause my heart cannot move on Heart cannot move on It feels so cold when the sky keeps mourning on The sky keeps mourning on It feels so cold 'cause my heart cannot move on my heart cannot move on"*" Inside you it's raining all the time

Self-destruction of the system/ Machinery turns against itself Dividing into factions/ Why is there nothing left Leaders losing their power to command/ The folk is beginning to demand An entrance fee for one's own home/ Everyone will wither alone Trying to fix the internal disorder/ unconsciously that we ourselves cause it We are building up the kingdom/ While we burn it down "*"It's a sweet suicide/ The peace is paid with blood We spoil our land with hate/ And drown it in to flood The death from the skies/ The punishment for our lies Everyone who will resist will still die after all The mission of man of today is to deal death/ The end is near This is the generation that is not able to fear Trying to fix the internal disorder/ unconsciously that we ourselves cause it We are building up the kingdom/ While we burn it down Is our sweet suicide ever made justified Our own benefits are mortified "*"It's a sweet suicide/ The peace is paid with blood We spoil our land with hate/ And drown it in to flood Digging the mainstay of our life/ Without a conception of a strife Answers we will never find/ Killing each others to survive "*" Here is your rope if you wanna go Filling the pot over the edges/ It will break down into pieces We murder our brothers/ We will drain our lives again Unintended resentment/ Has led people against each other Persistent lack of discipline/ Shows our inner ugliness Trying to fix the internal disorder/ unconsciously that we ourselves cause it We are building up the kingdom/ While we burn it down Is our sweet suicide ever made justified Our own benefits are mortified It's a sweet suicide/ The peace is paid with blood "*"It's a sweet suicide/ The peace is paid with blood We spoil our land with hate/ And drown it in to flood Digging the mainstay of our life/ Without a conception of a strife Answers we will never find/ Killing each others to survive "*"
