Didn’t you say that my eyes
Were shining like a spark in the night ?
A breath in this hell to believe
That we could make it change
Hand in hand together
To get the best out of this world ?
Now I feel something different
But I guess that is life
In this game we’re playing until death
You will never feel so powerless and
You will never bleed enough to make it change
Dry their tears, erase your fate, and feel the scars it made ‘cause
You will never see how far we’ve come this time
I feel the rain over my face
Like a cryin’ crowd in the night
Praying for another rise
Of the kingdom they all have in mind
I feel the pain they feel today
The bleeding scars they got and I
Will scream it loud and pray for life
To be the one who’ll help ‘em out
I’m so lost and sad that you will never find
All the pieces in my heart
The scars that will never lie
All the glasses that I’d never hide
From the bottle full of lies
To try to fake another smile

Rise Of The Kingdom

Here we are still believing in another fucking promise
And standing in the blood of another brother
For god’s sake, can’t you hear their screams and cries
The blood in their eyes falls into a tear to say we were never meant to be
The ones to blame for all the pain and all the rage we feel today
Can you feel the shame I feel, the bleeding innocence
(So blind) flowing through my veins?
(So hard) Is it just too late ?
(So late) Well maybe I am dead
You will try to say (Hey ! Hey !)
That you will never bleed (Hey ! Hey !)
But you can’t escape what you’re supposed to live
You will try to save (Hey ! Hey !)
What you will never need (Hey ! Hey !)
Selling all you can for this endless greed
Put a gun to your head and you will feel the same
Russian Roulette is the game we’re playing to the death with no fear
We don’t give a damn about feeding tragedy
Some will say it’s ignorance but who will take the blame
The feeling of another failure to save the human race
No need to feel another shame for this, because we’re all to blame
Step back into line
Pull the curtain, close your eyes
Feel the control in your head that leads you to the bitter end
Lie ! Lie ! Feed the lie
Pull the curtain, loose your mind
Welcome to the living dead and sing along ’til the bitter end
Lie, lie and you will be a part
Of this where you can lose your mind
Lie, lie, how can you be so blind
It’s time to open up your eyes
See, Oh, can’t you see
That you won’t be
The one to blame for all the pain
For all the rage and all the failures
We’re all to blame so
It’s time to go ahead

Hey ya ! I speak to all of you who’ve never fallen in line
It’s time to realize that you and I fucking can’t believe
You can try to keep the faith but you will find
Another failure, another lie, just a veil over your eyes to keep you blind
While your heart and soul are turning black
You are gonna be part of the crowd, another fucked up !
Come down to me
This is the only chance
We have to be
Wingless but never enslaved
Called down from another time
Expected by the crowd to be the holy savior
I’m just a child afraid and lost
Sent by fate to be the blood in your eyes
Raised inside another lie
Blinded by hate and the bleeding scars in my heart
Left for dead to join the fight
brought to the very edge to be the blood in your mind
So raise your fist and break the lies
Get ready to be a part of the story where no one can save ya
The holy war has just begun
Respond to the call and be our holy soldiers
Come down to me
This is the only chance
We have to be
Wingless but never enslaved

Baby Love :
« It’s not the end
It’s not your fate
And when love will be dead
And when faith’ll fade away
You’ll find me there on your way »
It’s what you said
That You’d still be there
But time’s passing by
And you’re still missing while
I’m still waiting for you to come back
Long Lost Son :
But you can still believe
That through time, towards the past,
I will find my way back to you
To dance again with you
But this time I’ve been mad
On my way you will find
A man locked in this hell
Devin :
If it’s the end
If it’s your fate
Join your hands in the dark
Fall to your knees, on the ground
And pray for me to be fair

Listen to me my son
I will let you know
That the day has come for you to join
Your fate you made on your own
‘Cause today is the day when it comes to an end
The end of the life for the prodigal son
From this hell to your death you won’t go home today
‘Cause I can’t let you go
Like a stranger in the world
The endless story of a broken generation
You’re freaking out
Dying for another time,
Another chance, another lie
Would you be better in another life
Looking for a chance not to be mommy’s little shame
Your daddy’s pride, a living-dead waiting for the end, well
Will you be the one to blame or just another failure
An empty glass as an alibi and you’ll be forgiven
Pull the curtain, welcome to the show
We’re hitting such a lonely road
We’re not coming home so
Join the crowd right now and lead them for a while
Or settle down and join the fight
To win this fucking war
It’s up to you ‘cause after all the devil’s on your side
All the demons in your head
Are just a veil that guides your way
And leads you nowhere to fade away
At this point you’re freaking out
But believe me, man it won’t last
The end has begun for you and I
All the blood into your eyes
Are falling into another lie
So free your mind and join me now
‘Cause you will be the only one to survive

Go ! It’s gonna be war !
Hide yourself
All the rage is falling down
All the hate has come around
And you can’t escape
All the faith
Has been gone for you and I
With just blood left in your eyes
And the hope to save yourself
Hey ! Hey ! We’ve crossed the line so many times
Well I guess that today it’s too late
Your bleeding heart is such a lonely place
And today you’re waiting for the end
BANG ! BANG ! The lies and all the alibis
Today we’re standing on the edge
Ready to save a little piece of hell
It’s time, come on, here we go again !
Tell me why
Tell me when
Tell me how to get this pain
Out of me tonight, to leave the fight
And take the pain away
And I can’t stop my veins from bleeding
I need a reason to believe
In better days when we’d be safe
But it’s too late !
Go ! There’s gonna be blood ! I swear ! So let’s go to war !
Oh I can’t believe in this way where we’ll fall
I can’t stand in this world We’re all together now
All the blood we’ve lost together
has been wasted because we’re falling down
Ladies and gentlemen of the bleeding world. It’s time for us to realize that this time we’ve come too far. We’ve been so blinded that we can’t go back. We’ve been so fucking stupid guys that now we all belong to death !
