BURNING POINT LYRICS

1. Intro ‒ The Godfather Theme

[Instrumental]

2. Empyre

The war is over but the battle's just begun
I met the devil's minion. It was case of hit and run
It was time to do or die...

Giving up to my demons, mistake that I won't do
Blinded by neon for a while I was a fool
But now we have built...

Brave new empyre
The untouchable, the unbreakable
Brave new empyre
Reaching new horizons
Storming with defiance

Am I to blame from your imperfection
It's truly a shame
You gained nothing from the lecture
And now it's all about

Brave new empyre
The untouchable, the unbreakable
Brave new empyre
Reaching new horizons
Storming with defiance

3. Manic Merry-Go-Round

Should I do that, did I say it like it was
Who's in the shadows, who will count the costs
Perfect balance between hell and paradise
Who dipped the scale, who will be the sacrificed

I don't need no excuses to throw you out
The pressure is off without a doubt

Stuck in between...
Evil whirlwind
And a manic merry-go-round
Like you haven't seen
Evil whirlwind
And a manic merry-go-round

Why leave it halfway, just dump me when you've done
My mind is lost, did someone block the sun
No more tears, I've done all that I can
But it's not over, have I failed the master plan?

I don't need no excuses to throw you out
The pressure is off without a doubt

Stuck in between...
Evil whirlwind
And a manic merry-go-round
Like you haven't seen
Evil whirlwind
And a manic merry-go-round

4. Face The Truth

No one cares what you say or do
So why even bother
It's all clear now, no room for two
We have to turn against each other

Scorch the land
Remember my name

Deny me, ignore me, refuse me
But face the truth
Bow down before me, deny me
And face the truth

Beneath the surface the beast awaits
To be released to the world
On a judgement days we storm the gates
With powers you've never heard

Deny me, ignore me, refuse me
But face the truth
Bow down before me, deny me
And face the truth

Scorch the land
Remember my name

No one cares what you say or do
So why even bother
It's all clear now, no room for two
We have to turn against each other

Scorch the land
Remember my name

Deny me, ignore me, refuse me
But face the truth
Bow down before me, deny me
And face the truth

5. Fool's Parade

March to the sound of the pied piper
Hypnotized by the power it will bring

Push aside the human behaviour
Take the place reserved for you in the ring

Do this, don't do that, don't act against the orders
Never too late to be bad but no crossing the borders

One by one we march to the beat
Of enchanted drums
Come join the fool's parade
One by one we march to the beat
Of enchanted drums
Let's join the fool's parade

Over-powered by the false messiah
Rational mind falls into oblivion

Do this, don't do that, don't act against the orders
Never too late to be bad but no crossing the borders

One by one we march to the beat
Of enchanted drums
Come join the fool's parade
One by one we march to the beat
Of enchanted drums
Let's join the fool's parade

6. Was It Me Again

I build a wall
Impossible to climb
My hands are sore
From the times I have tried

It's no easy thing
For me to pour my heart
But it's a necessity
Or we're drifting apart

There are times that I've been wrong
And maybe the words came out too strong

Was it me again, I blame myself
For the pain I put you through
It's always the same
Always the rain, it comes down hard...
Was it me again

I have tried and failed
But still I'm coming back for more
It's a relief to see
That I'm not rotten to the core

There are times that I've been wrong
And maybe the words came out too strong

Was it me again, I blame myself
For the pain I put you through
It's always the same
Always the rain, it comes down hard...
You can't see the tears from all the fears
That have burned inside my soul
I'm not unkind but I'm hurt inside
I just can't tell... was it me again

Between the walls of this unholy church
I open the doors and the evil emerge...

7. Walls Of Stone

Hey you, what's your name?
Never mind, to me it's all the same
May I rest, I'm feeling tired

Last in line, first in the fire
I was caught between temptation and desire
May I rest, I'm feeling tired

Between these walls of stone
A place I call home

Is that a smile on your face
Or just distorted image filled with hate
You can't hide the pain
It reflects from you

So cold, blood in your veins
Break me and you'll be crushed by shame
I can't hide the pain that reflects from you

...No more playing with my desire
Leave me and I'll be free
So cold, the one who stole the fire...

8. Sacrifice

Watch your own reflection
Force yourself to see
You are not your only enemy
Look behind the mirror
See behind the lie
Feel the pain and let it multiply

So many nightmares that are real
They are alive
Don't let them set your soul on fire

Sacrifice your love and hate
Sacrifice your heart
See the meaning of your fate
Tear your world apart

Fly down from your heaven
Climb up from your hell
Realize, it's your own soul to sell
Melt the ice around you
Hold your torches high
Feel the power, let it come to life

So many nightmares that are real
They are alive
Don't let them set your soul on fire

Sacrifice your love and hate
Sacrifice your heart
See the meaning of your fate
Tear your world apart

9. Cruel World

Silent place of emptiness
Like through eyes of a drunken man
Quiet thoughts, peaceful mind
It's so strange, feels like I'm fine

I can't hear that noisy world
Can't see the smoke of my inner burn
Feels like I'm a reborn again
Like my soul is almost unbroken

Cold darkness of night
Why can't I stay in the light
When I finally can
Continue my journey to the unholy land

I this world I cannot stay
Soon I have to go away
I wish I could open the door
And make this cruel world
Exist no more

Song of sorrow, song of my life
I can see tears in the drunken men's eyes
There are so many destinies
So many broken hearted stories

Through the silence I found a way
To drown sorrow and make pain go away
Finally I can set myself free
Of this sadness and misery

Cold darkness of night
Why can't I stay in the light
When I finally can
Continue my journey to the unholy land

I this world I cannot stay
Soon I have to go away
I wish I could open the door
And make this cruel world
Exist no more

No one can take this pain away from me
Flames of my life burned too fast
My spirit climbs high and now it flies free

I this world I cannot stay
Soon I have to go away
I wish I could open the door
And make this cruel world
Exist no more

10. Blinded By The Darkness

You try to burn the witches, from day to day you moralize
You cried the wolf but now it's catching you
There are no more excuses, no guardian angels for the damned
You drink the poison from the cup of gold

All the towers falling down
Your crying can't be heard no more
Your lies won't set you free

Eyes open wide ‒ you're blinded by the darkness
Eyes open wide ‒ you're blinded by the darkness

With your own eyes you saw the signs
You read them all across the skies
None of them did stand for victory
The double-talking false attacks and the stabbing
Of the backs never got you where you wanted to go

11. Only The Wrong Will Survive

You act like a king of 1000 dreams
The superstar of mankind

You're blocking my view
You're not worth the pain
The chances are few
Still you drive me insane

Masters of mediocrity
The rulers of the world

You're blocking my view
You're not worth the pain
The chances are few
Still you drive me insane

Always, why is it always
Only the wrong will survive
No change, there is no change
Only the wrong will survive

To the eyes of the world
You're nowhere in sight
Who's the ruler of mankind

From the start to the end
This world I make believe
My wound do not mend
I'm going insane

Always, why is it always
Only the wrong will survive
No change, there is no change
Only the wrong will survive

Wings of fire burn down my nightmare
Endless desire will keep my flame...
Keep my flame alive

Always, why is it always
Only the wrong will survive
No change, there is no change
Only the wrong will survive

14. Let Go

[bonus track]
[Originally by Q5]

In the darkest hour, tangled in despair
I looked around and I was dreaming
I walk the border of the other side
And all the time I heard a screaming

Let go... let go!
If you want to get back to the place you were at... let go!
Let go... let go!
If you tear at your heart
It will rip you apart... let go!

And in the mirror I saw a shining light
It beckoned me with distant hunger
A rage that's burning, consumed by itself
I couldn't stop it now or never

Let go... let go!
If you want to get back to the place you were at... let go!
Let go... let go!
Well he laughs at your pain
You've got nothing to gain... let go!

And when I woke up, I had a gun in my hand
I just can't do it, I want this dream to end

Let go... let go!
If you want to get back to the place you were at... let go!
Let go... let go!
If you tear at your heart
It will rip you apart... let go!

Let go... let go!
If you want to get back to the place you were at... let go!
Let go... let go!
Well he laughs at your pain
You've got nothing to gain... let go!

Let go... let go!

If you open your mind
See what you find... let go!

15. Gods Of Iron

[bonus track]
[Originally by Running Wild]

Shrill screaming sirens are calling
The branded victims to death
A sacrifice to the Gods of iron
Everybody is joining the mass

The blinded multitude is screaming
The defenseless victim is killed
Pools of blood are screaming
The tribute to the Gods is fulfilled

Slavery to all are rebellious
It's a venture if you resist
Hu, challenged rulers of the universe
All under their merciless fist

But fight them as long as you can
Or they hunt you until you are dead
But stand up and fight for freedom
So free the slaves from all dread

Detain and destroy the Gods of iron
Fight them before it's too late
Guard yourself from their defying
Stand up and don't hesitate

Shrill screaming sirens are calling
The branded victims to death
A sacrifice to the Gods of iron
Everybody is joining the mass

The blinded multitude is screaming
The defenseless victim is killed
Pools of blood are screaming
The tribute to the Gods is fulfilled

Detain and destroy the Gods of iron
Fight them before it's too late
Guard yourself from their defying
Stand up and don't hesitate

Detain and destroy the Gods of iron
Fight them before it's too late
Guard yourself from their defying
Stand up and don't hesitate
