Endzeit Metropolis
1. Endzeit Metropolis
This is the End!
These desolate streets of Metropolis
You`re longing to suck up the night
Take your last chance to drown in life
Fuck the night, breathe it`s air
`cause this is the End!
Metropolis, the hatred, the love!
Endzeit, the coming of the dawn!
Metropolis, the darkness, the light!
Endzeit, the pulse of time!
These lonely streets of Metropolis
You`re longing to kiss for one last time
The lips of the darkness around you
The womb of the ruins above you
Here`s to the end of times
In this darkest night of nights
Let`s dance into wicked crowds
As worlds collapse and hearts arouse
Drinking `til dawn in these desperate times
Until Aurora`s glance shines
This is the End!
These are my final words
Metropolis, this is for you
As I walk on broken glass
Into the vision of a thousand eyes
I have made my peace and I`m ready to die
This is it!
Metropolis, the mother, the whore!
Endzeit, the coming of the dawn!
Metropolis, the darkness, the light!
Endzeit, the pulse of time!
As I walk by the stars, hanging head-high
Shining on a dark path
I walk towards the light
Open eyes, with open eyes I am gazing
At the sky, hoping for sunrise
Loved ones, forever gone
Are the thoughts in my mind as I see the skyline
Endzeit Metropolis
A chain on my heart, a death inside
First rays in my face
Still crawling from behind
It`s the feeling of the Endzeit
2. A Requiem For Beauty
Is there beauty in darkness and disgust?
In darkest horrors?
Can`t you see the grace of mass graves,
the thrones of decay?
Joyfully, my eyes are filled with tears...
When I see the pain
and the undying misery...
...of the world!
Take a walk through Eden
To trample down it`s flowers
Cut throught the faces of the beauties
And burn the monuments of our times
Tomorrow or today
The glance fades anyway
Lest we forget?
Let us destroy!
Come! Come! Play the Requiem!
Come! Come! Sing to Beauty!
Dance! Dance! In the shadows of the night
Let the horrors shine in brightest light
Dance in fire, dance in flames
Sing songs in burning ecstasy
Dance in ashes and dance in ruins
For a burning world, play a
burning song that`s called:
A requiem for beauty
Is there beauty in darkness and disgust?
In darkest horrors?
Can`t you see the grace of mass graves,
the thrones of decay?
Take a walk through Eden
To trample down it`s flowers
Cut throught the faces of the beauties
And burn the monuments of our times
Tomorrow or today
The glance fades anyway
Lest we forget?
Let us destroy!
3. The Fever's Tide
And when the silence of a bird rips
through the loudness of the world
When the touch of a feather tears the
softest skin to tatters
I close my eyes and wait to die
A thousand deaths in a world with no light
A thousand deaths in a world without sight
In darkness I see
Through minds and flesh
I dream a dream
of my own death
Hear, hear...the rocks are rolling,
the horror, the fear
Dream, I dream...of scorched earth
and mountains
Breathe the air...through lungs filled
with ashes I choke in despair
See, I see...the overflow, now I`m drowning...
Inside
The Fever`s Tide
Waves break in
Fire in veins
Hot blood fever
Sweat on skin
The salt on my lips is a nightmare`s kiss
Kiss of fever
Heat in mind
Cloth on skin
The wake of a dream pulls me
Inside
The Fever`s Tide
Face to face
Now so sudden
I see clear
Wisdom through sickness
sight through fear
As I drown in death I see through
tunnels of light and fear
Fear the Tide
Floods of heat against my knees
Grace of Fever
Rolling rocks like beating hearts
And when the kiss of sweet lips
feels like the punch of a fist
When the silence of a stone cuts
through flesh, teeth and bones
I close my eyes and wait to die
A thousand deaths in a world full of light
A thousand deaths in a world with clear sight
4. Aesthetics And Ecstasy
My life is a fire
And I`m its flame
Fulfilled on surface
Yet I am empty
So many chances
Why not take them all?
So many roads
I`d take them all?
Can you hear,
can you hear the sounds?
And the echoes of the sounds that fulfill me
As I bath in loudness
and the splendour of tones
As I sink into visions
and the splendour of colours
Words open worlds of haunting beauty
Those desperate phrases,
enlightening through dark
It is mine, this Beauty
...this Ecstasy
But suddenly it`s like I got nothing
`cause it`s not mine, your Beauty
...your Ecstasy
Only one wish: to drown in your skin!
And in your eyes
And in your bones
And in your voice
Those pleasant tones
Deeper and deeper
Into the dungeons of your mind
Never ending, my wishes lair
That is you flesh, bones and air
And in your mouth
And in your scent
When will those wishes ever end?
Sounds and colours
Meet as one
Don`t meet in me
Not anymore
Nothing moves me,
nothing pulls me,
nothing takes me
Towards and into
...the Ecstasy
5. Farewell, Fade Away
[Instrumental]
6. Collector Of Worlds
Night has come, my friend
Feed our fire with wine
For we will, while the world`s asleep
Kiss the moon in the darkest deep
My name is not the same...here
My vein is not the same...here
For I am:
Collector of worlds
Burning heart!
Come forth, never regret the choices I´ve made
As long as the horizon...fades
So will I at the end of the line
Will I find my way or will I fade away?
Disappear in the heat of the night?
Without sight, lost my roots, I am never to find...
Again, `cause the heart is so bleak
like an ocean so deep
Never regret!
Never regret, never look back!
Tremble, but never fall!
I hear a voice, so clear
Through the sounds of the world
And I see and I tremble
A pale face, blue eyes
Against the bleeding horizon
In shades of grey, in shades of black
Lavender mist, a purple dust
Fade in strange worlds
Fade in shades of black
Whispering walls are breaking
Into earth and dust
Open wide and float now
For I am...
Collector of worlds
Burning heart!
Come forth, never regret the choices I´ve made
As long as the horizon...fades
7. Redeemed By Truth
My mind is a fortress
My mouth is a trench
My tongue may execute
My words, the swords
I am the poison in your veins
I am the cancer, the wisdom in you
"And ye shall know the Truth
And the truth shall make you free"
Free from:
Your feeble existence,
That is bound to believes,
Which never achieved
So now, pray and kneel!
Free from:
Your mindless fellowship
Can`t you see,
I am redeeming thee?
From where do you take
The self-imposed right
To speak in the name
Of unknown high powers?
This cannot be
The way of a creator
This must be
The way of a traitor
Killing to the sound of trumpets
Is Righteousness
Stealing in the name of the lord
Is Justice
Redeemed by truth
Raping the minds of millions
Is Guidance
Glorifying their ignorance
Is Strength
Redeemed by Truth
8. He, Who Stands Behind The Rows
No guardian angel
And no healing saint
But a pofane demon
And a reckless beast
Fill black blood into clear water
Poisoning the womb
Bring down the upheaval
They will never return to the fold
He, who stands behind the rows
And he, who burns a thousand thrones
His seed is hate, his harvest is death
...and power
Decisions over death and life
Made in the blink of an eye
Carving wounds that never heal
`cause dead flesh cannot feel
Turning the skies and the rivers
Into a formless crimson red
You drown your tears in shallow water
You will never be the same again
The End - A shattered world
-Dystopia
Marked by the absence of love
The End - Earth torn apart
-Tyrannia
A reign in glory and tragedy
