STAY AWAY
we are the monsters that wait anxiously to snap
WIDE AWAKE
we push eachother to the edge of a collapse
Running through the evening steppe
Among The Pack
Restless souls, hunted beasts, Pride of lions
on the hunt, standing close but walk alone
RUN AWAY
you better run before we jump and bite your neck
YOU'RE NOT SAFE
you never know when we will creep behind your back
ESCAPE
before we slit up your throat
ESCAPE
wave farewell to your hopes
ESCAPE
Running through the evening steppe
Among the pack
Restless souls, hunted beasts, Pride of lions
on the run, standing close but walk alone
Ready to attack your lousy lifes
bare our teeth
Restless souls, hunted beasts, Pride of lions
on the run, standing close but walk alone
Oooooooooooooohoooooho
oooooooooooohoooohohooooooo
We are the ones that can't be tamed
Oooooooooooooohoooooho
oooooooooooohoooohohooooooo
We fight like lions til the grave
Running through the evening steppe
Among the pack
Restless souls, hunted beasts, Pride of lions
on the run, standing close but walk alone
Ready to attack your lousy life
bare our teeth
Restless souls, hunted beasts, Pride of lions
on the run, standing close but walk alone
ESCAPE

I've been losing my sleep, I've been falling apart
Through all of the cracks that you left in the grey
Calling your phone, watching you from afar
how you throw your intentions away
You were the only one
now they took you away
this time i will stay strong
You were the only one
now they took you away
this time i will stay strong
i am caught in the waves
watching you drown
tracing your steps
follow you down
you were the only one
to me
Silence lays on your room, covers crumble the sheets
you've been out for twelve days in a row
You're mother stood still by the window at night
needles and spoons, pigeons and crows
You were the only one
now they took you away
this time i will stay strong
i am caught in the waves
watching you drown
tracing your steps
follows you down
you were the only one
You were the only one
now they took you away
this time i will stay strong
i am caught in the waves
watching you drown
tracing your steps
follow you down
you were the only one
to me

From above the clouds
the city seems to be a toy
of what we call
bringing peace
In the blue
you percieve their filthy birds
they will bring
democracy
It's safe to say this is the end of us
you won't escape the burning cloud
It's safe to stay, this is the final call
8.15 pm, the sun comes out
I Never Thought it would be easy
to light a fire in the sky
Just a twitch above the button
to end a thousand lives
As the roar is getting closer
and the sirens start to whail
approaching buzz slices the air
Surviving only a numbers game,
Simple equation
Your live only a fact
90 percent, thats what they want
calculation, in their hand
It's safe to say this is the end of us
I Never Thought it would be easy
to light a fire in the sky
Just a twitch above the button
to end a thousand lives
As the roar is getting closer
and the sirens start to whail
approaching buzz slices the air
i can not save you
now the decision is made
i can not save you
i can not save you
now the decision is made
Close your eyes, await the end
they have designed for you

Fortress

I think we're going insane
we build a Fortress
to keep us safe
As if it was our desert
to be born on this
spot of earth
And the gatekeepers stand by
to kill them at the drawbridge
as they cross the castles moat
Acting like we don't know
next to our Fortress
the graveyard grows
Let them drown
It's out of control
Let them drown
The sea will take care of their souls
And the gatekeepers stand by
to kill them at the drawbridge
as they cross the castles moat
Let them drown
There's bodies in the Frontyard
noone will ever try to count
No Nation, No border
is for eternity
No Nation, No Border
should stop humanity
Every moment kept quiet
is silent approval
So what are you waiting for?
And the gatekeepers stand by
to kill them at the drawbridge
as they cross the castles moat
Let them drown
There's bodies in the Frontyard
noone will ever try to count
Don't let them drown

Now the damage is done
and the battle's been fought
the taste of blood remains
Drag the victims apart
and clean up your sword
cause i will do the same
This is a constant war
I will do the same
Who started this fucking war?
You ripped a hole
into my world
and now we're done
Growing up
means moving on
and now i run
to get away from you
I'm moving on
(the taste of blood remains)
I'm moving on
(In the hope of better days)
Hard to see that the years
didn't matter to you
the taste of blood remains
Treat with contempt
talking shit 'bout my crew
Now I will do the same
No
You killed a friendship
It was your choice and now you'll see what you get
No
The way it ended
It was your choice, now we're done - theres no turning back
You ripped a hole
into my world
and now we're done
Growing up
means moving on
and now i run
to get away from you
I'm moving on
(the taste of blood remains)
I'm moving on
(In the hope of better days)
I kept you close like a brother
You ripped a hole
into my world
and now we're done
Growing up
means moving on
and now i run
to get away from you
