Lyrics

[00:30.72] They caught us near the street, like deer that takes refuge to the dark.
[00:37.39] Always in our backs they snapped us in our weakest moments.
[00:44.46] With broken legs you can’t run that far, they’ll obtain you fast,
[00:52.12] and take aware to hear what they mean, cause usually they speak with knives
[01:07.97][01:01.27] They speak with knives!
[01:27.54] Voices sounding like an empty orchestra that plays the soundtrack of our lies,
[01:34.42] every single note they bow or wind feels like a thorn in skin.
[01:41.80] In the end this journey was anything else but successful, one bridge too far,
[01:49.42] we searched for freedom and found nothing but a cold tomb!
[02:17.33][02:10.21] At least we found nothing but a cold tomb!
[03:10.69] To narrate retroperspectively,
[03:13.53] I never thought this trip could end up in chains,
[03:17.97] somehow we always thought,
[03:20.17] that we’d be the arsonists that will set the world on fire!
[04:50.47] And once again I’m calling the rain, to wash away this dry fields of grief,
[04:57.70] to wash away my bones and all I’ve ever feared.
[05:04.45] Everything I know for sure is that time’s a mirror itself,
[05:11.48] Somewhere along the way also the good times have to come to an end.
[05:18.62] Outside these walls I can see how night divides the day,
[05:25.72] and as the dawn falls I remember: Death always remained more perfect than life.
[05:47.12] After a while they screamed:
[05:49.72] Give ‘em blades to dig up their own graves!
[05:54.21] The dawn marked their beginning, the dawn marks the end.
[05:59.13] Give ‘em rope!
