1. King

Bow down and hail to the King!
I don't care what people think.
Bow down with your face in the mud!
I'm larger than life, I don't give a fuck.

The throne is mine, the crown fits fine,
I couldn't care less about your crying.
My rug is red, golden my bed,
I have everything but regrets.

Nothing to hold on,
King of kingdom gone.
I'm all alone!

Bow down and hail
to the King!
I don't give a fuck
about anything!

I live among Gods, I dine in Hell.
I'm on top of the world and I never fail.
But within my towering walls,
I sing a song about an empty soul.

Nothing to hold on,
King of kingdom gone.
I'm all alone!

Where I walk there's light,
where I speak there's quiet.
Darkness inside, silence cries.
Is this what I long to be?

Who have I become?
A King of kingdom gone!
I'm trying to hold on.

Who have I become?
A King of kingdom gone!
I'm trying to hold on.

Nothing to hold on,
King of kingdom gone.
I'm all alone!

I'm all alone!
I'm all alone!


2. Chaos - Creation

A New World Order
to decide the chaos,
to daze our minds
and to keep us blind.

We're blinded and we followed
without rhyme or reason.
A government charade,
the highest form of treason.

We need to burst
these Chains of oppression.
We need to rise and walk
the path of liberation.

Right here, right now,
light up the freedom flame.
Tonight this is our time,
ignite the fire in your hearts tonight.

Right here, right now,
wake up and make a change.
Tonight this is our time,
ignite the fire in your hearts tonight.

Create a new chaos
and get in motion,
with no retreat
and no surrender.

We need to converge
and set the streets on fire.
We need to bring down
this corrupted empire.

Smoke is everywhere,
freedom is written in the sky.
The end is near,
so kiss the tyrants goodbye.


Right here, right now,
light up the freedom flame.
Right here, right now,
wake up and make a change.


Right here, right now,
light up the freedom flame.
Tonight this is our time,
ignite the fire in your hearts tonight.

Right here, right now,
wake up and make a change.
Tonight this is our time,
ignite the fire in your hearts tonight.


3. Wolves and Rats

Am I alive?
I hear them coming,
hear them running,
scratching at my door.

Am I alive?
Silence, darkness,
sweat of fear,
I could cry a million tears!

This is it,
the end of everything.
The world bleeds
from within.

This is it,
the apocalypse.
We're ruled by
wolves and rats.

This is it,
the end of everything.
The world bleeds
from within.

This is it,
this is it,
this is it,
this is now!

My Apcalypse!

Is this the end?
I saw my blood
I closed my eyes,
I woke up and realized.

This is the end!
Pitch black, dark red,
this world is dead!

This is it,
the end of everything.
The world bleeds
from within.

This is it,
the apocalypse.
We're ruled by
wolves and rats.

This is it,
the end of everything.
The world bleeds
from within.

This is it,
this is it,
this is it,
this is now!

My Apcalypse!

Is this is the end?
This is the end!

I am alive!
The world is dead,
but I am alive!

I will survive!
I will fight,
but will I survive?

This is it,
the end of everything.
The world bleeds
from within.

This is it,
the apocalypse.
We're ruled by
wolves and rats.

This is it,
the end of everything.
The world bleeds
from within.

This is it,
this is it,
this is it,
this is now!

My Apcalypse!


4. nebeL

Das ist die Realität,
sie frisst mich auf.
Das ist die Realität!

Traumwelt zerfällt,
wo bist Du jetzt?
Du bist gegangen
ohne zurück zu schauen.

Kein Wort, kein Blick,
alles versinkt im Nichts,
ich folge ins Licht.

An solchen Tagen seh ich zu
wie der Regen mein Leben benetzt.
Ich versinke!

An solchen Tagen
zieh'n die Wolken schwarze Fragen!

Das ist die Realität,
sie frisst mich auf.
Das ist die Realität!

Schwarze Fragen
die mich plagen,
ein Leben lang.

Ich muss hier raus,
doch der Himmel schreit:
"Du bist mein in Ewigkeit!"

An solchen Tagen seh ich zu
wie der Regen mein Leben benetzt.
Ich versinke!

An solchen Tagen
zieh'n die Wolken schwarze Fragen!

Ich versinke im Nichts,
im Nichts, im Nichts.
Und ich spüre wie der Regen fällt!

An solchen Tagen seh ich zu
wie der Regen mein Leben benetzt.
Ich versinke!

An solchen Tagen
zieh'n die Wolken schwarze Fragen!
Ich versinke!


5. I Am Ghost

Father forgive me
for I have sinned.
I am the walking dead,
it's the end.

Walk with me, epiphany!

Fuck you,
you let me down!
I am ghost,
I am the walking dead!

I'm floating
in a lifeless haze.
My memories are
slipping away.

I don't believe
in God anymore.
My sky is falling down,
darkness falls.

Walk with me in agony!

Fuck you,
you let me down!
I am ghost,
I am the walking dead!

I'm floating
in a lifeless haze.
My memories are
slipping away.

I'm floating away,
I am ghost!


6. Devil's Night

Once upon a time
at the devil's night,
I lost my heart,
my heart and light.

I am dead,
dead but alive.
A forgotten soul
with savage eyes.

I'm the demon you created,
this nightmare is real.
I'm the shadow behind,
I'm everything you fear.

Through blood and tears
we broke this spell.
You'll be by my side!

Sleep well my darling,
goodbye, farewell.
You'll be by my side!

Black scars and
a harlequin's face.
Death in disguise,
fallen from grace.

Vengeance is mine!
Crow-shaped blood stain
in darkness divine.

I'm the demon you created,
this nightmare is real.
I'm the shadow behind,
I'm everything you fear.

Through blood and tears
we broke this spell.
You'll be by my side!

Sleep well my darling,
goodbye, farewell.
You'll be by my side!

We fly away
on broken wings.
This is the end
of everything.

Salvation!

We fly away
on broken wings.
This is the end
of everything.

Salvation!

Through blood and tears
we broke this spell.
You'll be by my side!

Sleep well my darling,
goodbye, farewell.
You'll be by my side!


7. yOUR Song

I'm far away from home,
I've travelled the world
from town to town.

And even when I feel alone,
every stage feels like
I'm coming home.

A tribute to the faithful,
you were always true!
A tribute to all kindred souls,
here's to you!

This is your song,
this is our song.
We're coming home,
where we belong.

This is your song,
this is our song.
We're flesh and bone,
so sing along!

You're not just a face in the crowd,
you're motivation, you're gold.
Four words from a thousand lips:
"We are the Apocalypse!

A tribute to the faithful,
you were always true!
A tribute to all kindred souls,
here's to you!

This is your song,
this is our song.
We're coming home,
where we belong.

This is your song,
this is our song.
We're flesh and bone,
so sing along!

Straight from my heart,
here's to you!

I promise you here and now,
as long as I breathe
I won't let you down.

I promise you here and now,
with my heart and soul,
we'll never bow down.

Let's go!

This is your song,
this is our song.
We're coming home,
where we belong.

This is your song,
this is our song.
We're flesh and bone,
so sing along!

Straight from my heart,
here's to you!


8. Cries and Whispers

Cries and whispers,
peace and twisters!

I still remember
the time of hope and fear.
The time we had before
all turned into tears.

Embraced by darkness
I can't see the light.
I know she's dead,
swallowed by the deepest night.

I can't feel my aching heart,
everything has fallen apart.
Your voice still sounds in my head,
speak the words you've never said.

Cries and whispers,
peace and twisters!

All dead and gone,
but who is to blame?
Right from the start
we choke the flame.

We set the course
straight to Hell,
from a lightning storm
into a heavy swell.

I can't feel my aching heart,
everything has fallen apart.
Your voice still sounds in my head,
speak the words you've never said.

Mend my broken heart
when everything has fallen apart.

Beyond the horizon,
after all is said and done,
I walk alone towards
the midnight sun.

The path ascends,
no end in sight.
Where do we go from here?
I still search for light!

I can't feel my aching heart,
everything has fallen apart.
Your voice still sounds in my head,
speak the words you've never said.


9. Good Man

As I lay here,
reflecting my life,
I'm all alone after all
I've said and done.

Do you remember all the times
you cried in vain?
Do you remember all the times
I let you down?

Do you remember all the times
I could not ease the pain?
Do you remember all the times
I let you down?

I don't see me
being a good man,
no one is here
to say goodbye.

I wish I could go back
to my broken past.
I'm a broken man
with nothing left.

I know you can't forgive,
I wish you could forget!
I wish you could forget!

I wish I could go back
to my broken past.
I'm a broken man
with nothing left.

I know you can't forgive,
I wish you could forget!
I wish you could forget!

Do you remember all the
moments that I missed?
Do you remember all the times
I could be loved and kissed?

Do you remember
all treasures I threw away?
Do you remember when I fled
and should have stayed?

I don't see me
being a good man,
no one is here
to say goodbye.

I wish I could go back
to my broken past.
I'm a broken man
with nothing left.

I know you can't forgive,
I wish you could forget!
I wish you could forget!

I wish I could go back
to my broken past.
I'm a broken man
with nothing left.

I know you can't forgive,
I wish you could forget!
I wish you could forget!

So here I am
at the end of the road.
I walk alone, I walk alone...

So here I am
at the end of the road.
I walk alone and nobody
gives a fuck!

Fuck!

I wish I could go back
to my broken past.
I'm a broken man
with nothing left.

I know you can't forgive,
I wish you could forget!
I wish you could forget!

I wish I could go back
to my broken past.
I'm a broken man
with nothing left.

I know you can't forgive,
I wish you could forget!
I wish you could forget!

As I lay here,
reflecting my life,
I'm all alone after all
I've said and done.


10. I Am Rebellion

I am the dark of the night,
the light of the day
and everything in between.

I'm nothing, I'm different!
Where do I belong?
Why do I hate myself so much,
why can't I be strong?

I'm a misfit, won't fit this
and nobody cares.
I'm a stranger to myself,
I find it hard to bear.

Would you realize
when I disappear?
I'm invisible like a
Neptune's tear!

No storm will take
our breath and blow us away.
The earth will shake
with every word that we say.

When worlds collide,
we will always stay!

No storm will take
our breath and blow us away.
The earth will shake
with every word that we say.

When worlds collide,
we will always stay!

There's a stranger
inside of me.
So deep inside of me,
he will no longer be.

I was no one,
an empty shell.
A seeker, searching
for myself.

There is a reason,
I am the way I am.
I am who I am,
I am rebellion!

I'm too different
to be a part of you,
but not in different
to change the world!

No storm will take
our breath and blow us away.
The earth will shake
with every word that we say.

When worlds collide,
we will always stay!

No storm will take
our breath and blow us away.
The earth will shake
with every word that we say.

When worlds collide,
we will always stay!


11. Who We Are

We're looking back on many years,
lucky days and little tears.
We made mistakes and had some fights,
blackend days and lonely nights.

But we grow closer,
the older we get.
Whatever we do,
we have no regrets.

We are far from being perfect,
but this is who we are.
We will walk this way together,
with our hearts right to the stars.

Can you feel my heart?

We're looking forward to many years,
different cares and different fears.
Whatever tomorrow brings,
I'll walk with you!

The mistakes we made,
we won't make twice.
I told you then, I tell you now,
I will never let you down.

We are far from being perfect,
but this is who we are.
We will walk this way together,
with our hearts right to the stars.

Can you feel my heartbeat,
can you see my heart bleed?
Can you feel my heartbeat,
can you see my heart bleed?

I wanna thank you
for being strong.
I wanna thank you
for guiding me home.

I wanna thank you
for being bright.
I will always hold you,
I won't ever leave you behind.

We are far from being perfect,
but this is who we are.
We will walk this way together,
with our hearts right to the stars.


12. My Vertigo

Welcome to my
fragile paradise.
Where everything
is built to fall.

That's my demise!

In my world I'm one of the endless,
everything turns upside down.
Tossing, turning, flying, falling.
Oh my God, I'm losing ground.

I'm so far away,
I'm losing ground.
My Vertigo, my Vertigo.

I won't look back
with no regrets.
Just let me go,
my Vertigo!

Welcome to my
fragile paradise.
Where everything
is built to fall.

That's my demise!

Shattering echoes, silent cries,
delusive hope and hollow eyes.
These walls come tumbling down,
I'm gone six feet underground.

I'm so far away,
I'm losing ground.
My Vertigo, my Vertigo.

I won't look back
with no regrets.
Just let me go,
my Vertigo!
