BEHIND THE SCENERY LYRICS

1. Rétroviseur

I take a look in the mirror
Can you describe to me
The face that i will see

Frozen signs of memory
Testify for the hours of decay
Sculptured by time

Flashback
Oblivion means defeat
In the end the tidals will become complete

I`m traveling through a mirror
That once was broken in pieces
A wanderer at the shores of time

Look at my picture and tell me what you see
While another day passes by
Count all the false steps I've done before
And the next day will fade away

Flashback
Oblivion means defeat
In the end the tidals will become complete

All I have done
I did it for myself
Is this the man I want to be?

Each day is portrayed by the hands of time
No more can be done
Hours of doubt are trying to kill the time
The only thing which counts is present now

Flashback
Oblivion means defeat
In the end the tidals will become complete

Time passes on quickly
And all the wasted days
Will be reduced to history

Look at my picture and tell me what you see
While another day passes by
Count all the false steps I've done before
And the next day will fade away

Look at my picture and tell me what you see
See
Count all the false steps I've done before
Before

2. Me And The Sun

Non-divine masters of infinity
A breathing obscenity
Insanity
That a few regardless men hold the key
Blinded by their might and vanity
It was only a question of time
When they broke the key
And we shall be
Punished for our convenient apathy
Without iniquity

A desperate monologue
Between me and the sun
And I lie down again
As the answers fail to come

The fragile balance is stricken by despite
Manipulations
Shattered relations
And the sun burns too bright
So bright

Fading
Dying perspectives
Darkened dreams of a global grave

A desperate monologue
Between me and the sun
And I lie down again
As the answers fail to come

Tired ears have heard enough lies
From the keepers of the key
Serenity
Downfall of cultures
Downfall of nature
They will never see
Never see

We burn the broken land
And rape the purity
The future is our burden
Can we live without our dignity

This is only
A desperate monologue
Between me and the sun
And I lie down again
As the answers fail to come

3. Journey

I am on my way to a place I call myself
A journey to the center of my fate
With anger I try to set my rules
To betray their way
To change my tale
My destiny

Don`t try to stop me
Don`t try to bar my way
Try to convict me - I will deny

I am so sick, so tired
Of your media control
Where each breath is guided and pre-decided
I`m breaking the wall of your thought factory
Prepare to fail, prepare to fall

Just a footstep at the shores of time

Don`t try to stop me
Don`t try to bar my way
Everything you say I will deny

Don`t try to stop me
Don`t try to bar my way
Try to convict me - I will deny

Living my life beyond your scenery
Bored of being used I`ll choose another way
The quest for what I am is natural
I am unique, an individual


Static numbers following unwritten statutes
Soulless merchants of their hunt for illusion

Don`t try to stop me
Don`t try to bar my way
Try to convict me - I will deny

4. Silence Within

Give me some words
My swan of the night
Anyway I`ll fail to catch
A faint touch of your light

Bury within me the shades of the past
Give birth to red-blazing sun
Cut the veil off my eyes

Come drown me silently and take with you
The fears that left me motionless
A sudden breeze with rains of silver dust
Return your tears into pearls of grace

To end my disguise
I fall by your side
Only to give myself up
For the glow of your eyes

So be this my creed, my own destiny
To be one with the queen of the swans
End up my life
Start a new one

Come down me silently and take with you
The fears that left me motionless
A sudden breeze with rains of silver dust
Return your tears to pearls of grace

5. No Second Silence

The sadistic beast man
Erases silence and awakes the sleeper
With his stainless claws he drives the nail
Deeper and deeper

We all should learn to suffer in our controlled-
Uncontrolled Chaos

Stress is razor blade
Pioneer of pain
No second regeneration
They cut again
In every sinew
In every cell
Feel the torture
Feel the pain again

The dreamer´s search
He`ll never reach the shores of sleep
A nervous hostage
To insomnia

No second silence
No release from the heartbeat of technology
No second sleep
No release from the tongues of misery

Restless faces
A live against the clock
A cruel competition
That can´t be won
The fast-moving present
That moves restriction
A prelude of our self-made insanity

Haunting voices celebrate a raging requiem
A lullaby in deadly speed

Stress is razor blade
Pioneer of pain
No second regeneration
They cut again
Heartbeat of technology
Tongues of steel
A prelude of our
Self-made insanity

6. De-Revelation

Look at this spiteful world today
And realize what´s happening
Defamatory preachers twisting the truth
And only lies will remain

What is wrong? Why can´t we see?
We´re all bleeding red
What is wrong? Why can´t we see?
We will all be dead

They speak in the name of thousand gods
Lies keep them alive
There is no truth in their words
Only hate and disguise
Religious arrogance
Works against every coexistence
Religious controversy
We are one, why can´t we see

There is no life that doesn't end
There is no man who doesn't breathe

The blind men condemn
Everything they can´t see
Without doubt, without shame
They invent their enemies
Divided cultures
Hostile religions
Separated and solitary
It´s surely not the way we wanna be

What is wrong? Why can´t we see?
We´re all bleeding red
What is wrong? Why can´t we see?
We will all be dead
Different symbols, different gods
The same flesh, the same blood

7. Human 2.0

Are you the pure-blind philosopher who can see clearly?
The ruin and stagnation of our tired society
The birth of a better race without all
Present stains you proclaim
You are just a mortal man who tries
To over strip reality

You reject the obsolete creation
You select the new human version

The philosopher can´t neither read nor write
And so our requirements get out of sight
While he´s performing his gentle genocide

You try to reach perfection by reaching purity
The unnatural selection cultivates humanity

On your crusade to eternity
You are blind
Blind to the errors in your fatal ideology

You think you are immune to morality
Can you deny the natural nativity
On your deformed, on your crippled wings of fantasy
You will conquer the creation, all life and the gravity

What did we see when we looked at him
A mortal man who failed

You reject the obsolete creation
You select the new human version

8. Response To Solitude

The age of strength is here at last
Driven by the intention to restore the past

A dark some tyrant veiled in a velvet robe
Hear his anthems of suppression, of honesty and hope

An archaic impulse to constitute
A modern instrument of force
To breed a autocratic solitude
A dynasty will be enforced

Proud to stalk on bloody paths
How helpless did we become

A capitalistic democracy
Elevated in its autocracy
A world on its knees
A liberty where no one´s free

Throughout all time and history
The tyrants fight against equality

9. Élévation

Mon esprit, tu te meus avec agilité.
Et, comme un bon nageur qui se pâme dans l' onde.
Tu sillonnes gaiement l'immensité profonde
Avec une indicible et mâle volupté.

Et bois, comme une pure et divine liqueur.
Le feu clair qui remplit les espaces limpides.
Derrière les ennuis et les vastes chagrins
Qui chargent de leur poids l'existence brumeuse.
Heureux celui qui peut d'une aile vigoureuse
S'élancer vers les champs lumineux et sereins;
Et bois, comme une pure et divine liqueur.
Le feu clair qui remplit les espaces limpides.
Celui dont les pensers, comme des alouettes.
Vers les cieux le matin prennent un libre essor.
- Qui plane sur la vie, et comprend sans effort
Le langage des fleurs et des choses muettes!
Et bois, comme une pure et divine liqueur.
Le feu clair qui remplit les espaces limpides.

Mon esprit, tu te meus avec agilité.
Et, comme un bon nageur qui se pâme dans l' onde.
Tu sillonnes gaiement l'immensité profonde
Avec une indicible et mâle volupté.

10. Fassadenspiel

Das Fremde das die gewohnten Normen bricht
Wie ein von Narben entstelltes Gesicht
Aus dem Fremden resultiert zu oft Wut und Zorn
Emotionen aus Unzulänglichkeit geboren

Ohne das Unbekannte zu akzeptieren
Werden wir den Horizont aus den Augen verlieren
Das Unvermögen zu tolerieren
Lässt die Menschheit die Menschlichkeit verlieren

Alle und keiner sind irgendwo fremd
Schwer zu verstehen wenn man sich selbst nicht kennt
Jeder neuer Eindruck bereichert unser Leben
Am Ende bleibt es doch ein Geben und Nehmen

Gewissenlosigkeit und lodernde Flammen
Niederlage der Vernunft, absurdes Verlagen

Das Menschliche verliert jeglichen Wert
Gefühle wie Mitleid, ausgebrannt, ausgezehrt

Hass ist eine Ausdruckform der Hilflosigkeit
Das Stigmata der Unmenschlichkeit
Der Weg des geringsten geistigen Widerstands
Die pure Lethargie tötet den Verstand

11. The Architect

Open your eyes and see
A immoral society
Blind architects of the future
Lost in apathy
Close your eyes and be
A part of this society
Raise the social stake
Inflame the purgatory

The present image of our generation
Is painted in colors of degeneration
The present image of tomorrow´s generation is motionless
A change is needed for a alteration

Our motionless society
Is trapped in a void
In contradiction to reality
Resting intentions
Will create an era
Of poverty
Of grim uncertainty

Uncertainty is certain
If we insist on our high demand
Excessive present standards
Someday someone´s got to pay

Convenience and stagnation
Incompatible with tomorrow´s generation
Prosperity
Will betray us all
The shadow world
Our shadow world will burn

Uncertainty is certain
For another generation
Excessive present standards
Someday someone´s got to pay
