DEADLOCK LYRICS

1. The Great Pretender

"Once born in the arms of god
But only to surrender
To something greater than us
To a great pretender!

When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get? What is there to know?
When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get? What is there to know?
I will follow!

Once born in the arms of god
I ran into the storm
Into the hopeless sea engullfed
All visions broken, dropped and torn

We will prevail - They're blessed to fail!

When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get? What is there to know?
When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get? What is there to know?
I will follow!

We will never surrender to your great pretender
We will prevail - They're blessed to fail
We will prevail - Pretenders - They're blessed to fail

When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get? What is there to know?
When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get?

I will follow!

When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get? What is there to know?
When you are walking- where do you go?
What is there to get?

I will follow

I will follow"

2. I'm Gone

"Today we don't have dreams to chase - Just a promise
The hope is written in my face - I am gone...

The wish for better days - erased by memories
And buried under the soil
A promise in your blood, but nothings gonna change
There comes a point you'll realize

Today we don't have dreams to chase - Just a promise
The hope is written in my face - I am gone without a trace!

Too far - No eyes could see - a world in crushed dreams
It's touching me from inside....
A promise in your head, but nothings gonna change
There comes a point you'll realize!

Today we don't have dreams to chase - Just a promise
The hope is written in my face - I am gone without a trace!

A promise of a better place - forgotten dreams, forgotten past!
Times we've had were numbered days - in the end yesterdays wont last
Open your eyes just to make clear - no tears will blind your sight..
I apologize!

Today we don't have dreams to chase - Just a promise
The hope is written in my face - I am gone...

Today we don't have dreams to chase - Just a promise
The hope is written in my face - I am gone without a trace!

Just a promise!
Just a promise!
Just a promise!
Just a promise!
Just a promise!
Just a promise!
Just a promise!"

3. Dead City Sleepers

We are sleepers in dead cities
This is what remains of our innocence
I die, I die a hundred times a day
Why has fate forsaken me?
Why has God forsaken me?

Only a broken lullaby
Dead city sleepers
Still taunts me
Through a sleepless night
Dead city sleepers

We are persecutors in pale shells
Who hide demons beneath their skins
We have planted dead and dying trees
Tell me why has God forsaken me

I died a hundred times
No more tears to cry
It's true that I'm caught in a lie
You ignored my cries

Only a broken lullaby
Dead city sleepers
Still taunts me
Through a sleepless night
Dead city sleepers

I died a hundred times
No more tears to cry
It's true that I'm caught in a lie
You ignored my cries

Only a broken lullaby
Still taunts me
Through a sleepless night

Only a broken lullaby
Dead city sleepers
Still taunts me
Through a sleepless night
Dead city sleepers

Oh through a sleepless night

4. The Arsonist

"Fire! [12x]
The Arsonist! [2x]

No consolation - no you won't fail
Generations to be impaled
The order of old is non-existent
Is this death worth living for?

What will remain - my dearest desire - is fire [4x]
The earth will turn to a funeral pyre - fire! [4x]

The aronist! [2x]

In dry rivers man seeks to drown
Keep desires, faith carves in stone
Now seek out, cut down the demon's curse
In vain... We perish with the earth!

Now! They die by words of fire...
Now! And this is what remains

Fire! [4x]

What will remain - my dearest desire - is fire [4x]
The earth will turn to a funeral pyre - fire! [4x]

The Arsonist! [4x]"

5. Darkness Divine

I will lead you through a darkness divine
There is no light under a blood-red sky
...Take control of your world!

We are cursed
Born in never-ending ignorance
We are cursed
Seduced by words of sweet bitterness

There's no solace without a sacrifice
Ancient, diseased winds are going to rise
...Take control of this hell!

We are cursed
Born in never-ending ignorance
We are cursed
Seduced by words of sweet bitterness

Baptized in flames
Swim through the mire to come back as a new man
Atone for sins - a sacrifice of a heretic
Swim through the mire - break your empty visions
You won't find solace!
No you won't find solace!

...Take control of your world!

We are cursed
Born in never-ending ignorance
We are cursed
Seduced by words of sweet bitterness
Baptized in flames!

6. As We Come Undone

Today we let the curtain rise
Generation occupied -
Welcome to your empty lives
Led astray with blinded eyes
No more utter solitude -
Oppressive enough to escape your fate

We come undone
We burn away the path we're on
All hope is gone - as we come undone
While the great nations sleep

Idealists? Pacifists? Anarchists? Hypocrites!
Non-believers - starry-eyed
Drifted hope - comatose - social values - over-dosed
Gone astray with blinded minds

No more utter solitude -
Oppressive enough to escape your fate

We come undone
We burn away the path we're on
All hope is gone - as we come undone
While the great nations sleep

We die in slumber - escape
We die in slumber - from fate

We come undone
As we burn away the path we're on
All hope is gone..

We come undone
As we burn away the path we're on
All hope is gone - as we come undone
While the great nations sleep

7. Hurt

Pulling me under the water
Where human glory disappears
Escaping this life seems so easy
But I fear a thousand fears

Down to the bottom sand
Fragile life comes to end

Sailing in the sea of tears
Sorrow - I owe you everything
Sailing in the sea of tears
I can feel the hurt again

Guided by whispering voices
I feel the silence everywhere
Like memories from my past
Why should I live in a world where nothing lasts?

Down to the bottom sand
Fragile life comes to end

Sailing in the sea of tears
Sorrow - I owe you everything
Sailing in the sea of tears
I can feel the hurt again

Old thoughts are running through my head
Can I release myself from chains
Will I ever forgive myself

Sailing in the sea of tears
Sorrow - I owe you everything
Sailing in the sea of tears
I can feel the hurt again!

Oh I can feel...
Oh I can feel...
I can feel the hurt again!
Oh I can feel...
Oh I can feel...
I can feel the hurt again!

8. The Final Storm

Now what's left of our so-called revolution?
Never more following the glorified policy of needless waste
By adding fuel to the fire - will we ever brave that storm?

A new aeon rises
We are here to stay
May my voice be the storm.. We are the storm

Unceasing acts of excess forced mankind to creep into the depths
Now what's left of our so-called revolution?
We are no longer - obedient slaves
We are no longer - needless waste

What are we now? We are the change!

A new aeon rises
We are here to stay
May my voice be the storm.. We are the storm

Does it hurt see your bridges burn?
We're the storm before the final calm... We are the storm!

May my voice be the storm.. We are the storm!

9. Small Town Boy

[originally by Bronski Beat]

You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
But the answers you seek
Will never be found at home
The love that you need
Will never be found at home

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That they'd talk about around town
As they put you down

And as hard as they would try
They'd hurt to make you cry
But you never cried to them
Just to your soul
No you never cried to them
Just to your soul

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

Cry , boy, cry...

10. My Pain

Night fades to day
And days fade to darkness
Please, let me out of here
I'm trapped in nothingness

Seems like this time is right to dry all of the tears - That I have cried
But I'm too weak - I feel so numb and isolated from everyone
A single tear escapes my eye - I cure my pain with a razor blade

Days have passed - Years gone by - Dreams torn apart
My cheating mind attempts to kill my aching heart

Seems like this time is right to dry all of the tears - That I have cried
But I'm too weak - I feel so numb and isolated from everyone
A single tear escapes my eye - I cure my pain with a razor blade

I cure my pain with a razor blade!

Seems like this time is right to dry all of the tears - That I have cried
But I'm too weak - I feel so numb and isolated from everyone...

Seems like this time is right to dry all of the tears - That I have cried
But I'm too weak - I feel so numb and isolated from everyone
A single tear escapes my eye - I cure my pain with a razor blade!
