HUMAN FORTRESS LYRICS

1. Amberstow

Yearning for a better world
To live without sorrow
Yearning for prosperity
I strive to do

Yearning for equality
Union of nations
We stick together now

Begging for passage to
My final journey
Begging for assistance to
Ride out my way

Begging for a piece of luck
To ward off evil
I leave it all behind

Follow me - Amberstow
Beyond the horizon
Praise - Amberstow
I know it is real
My own world won't stop turning
Before I arrive
I am free - Amberstow
I'm under your spell again

Try to visualize
In the middle of nowhere
It must he wonderful
Too good to be true

Is. this so far away
Or just an illusion?
To leave it all behind

2. Last Prayer To The Lord

Waiting for a sunrise
Tired and aggrieved
I don't dare to get up
The devil rests gently
Still remain in silence
Try to hold my breath
I can hear a whisper
Evil is awake

I try to run
I try to hide
All entries locked
Want to survive
Suppress my fear
To clear my mind
'till I'm out of danger

Last prayer to the Lord
Before it is over
Last prayer to the Lord
Hallowed by thy name
Someone to assist
Endure these dark hours
Struggle for survival has begun
The sway of evil shades the sun

I can't bear the slander
Pure indignity
Fatal smile of anger
Nothing good's foreseen
Rolling like a thunder
Hear a blast of rage
Running fast for cover
Until the storm is flashing by

3. Rise Or Fall

Lived a lie
Many times
Riding through the storm
Wounds are still bleeding
Can't stop screaming
Feel the blade
On my neck
For my dying breath
Anguish is floating
Through my veins

Rise or fall
Rise or fall
Try to find a way to win
And crack the wall
Rise or fall
Rise or fall
Bow down my head
Confess my sins
By grace of god
Rise or fall

I have failed
To corrupt
The guardians of the night
They want to take vengeance
Bounty on my head
Catch my horse
Chain my hands
Never get my soul
You'll never break me
I shall prevail

4. Thieves Of The Night

Steal a glance
In bad faith
Hungry eyes
Never disappear
Greed for gain
Take the haul
Show our skills
Just to fill the bolt

No mens rea
Never surrender
There's no sense of shame

We're gonna fall from grace
'till the end of time
We are the thieves of the night
Get lost without a trace
We are hard to find
We are the thieves of the night

We want more
Take it all
Mean no harm
We're insatiable
Aiming high
Without strife
We won't stop
'Cause we can't get enough

5. Thrice Blessed

Sheltered all days
Guarded in any ways
So much-admired
Fulfil all desires

Wealth is untold
Enjoy the rain of gold
Live without care
Isolation beware

Whenever I'm dreaming
I leave for a spell
Take me away to my better self
Welcome to the real world
I'm sheltered from reality
Thrice blessed

Can't bend the grates
From my gilded cage
No place to hide
Surrounded by my guards

Lonely and lost
No high degree of trust
Breach of the rules
Are without excuse

6. Hellrider

On the road
I'm free, lost in thoughts
Keep straight on my way
Exhausted from long days
But I'm moving on

I can hear
The snuffle of my horse
Truly marked by strain
Slacken the reins
When I pet its mane
Once again

When time flies by
In the twinkling of an eye
To pause for a moment, one moment

Taste the dust - Hellrider
'till the dusk - Hellrider
When I ride against the wind
I'm wild and free
The desert king

Always feel
Soaked leather on my skin
Dust scratching my throat
I need a retreat
Always look around

Rock and stones
As far as I can see
My favorite place to be
When I quench my thirst
Sunlight hurts
Hurts so bad

7. Just A Graze

Sacrificed to fight
Recruited filled with hope for better days
Book of promises
There was no word of danger I could die
I was yearning for a world of adventures
They always calm our mates, we don't have to care

But one day we went to Nomala
To defeat rebellious tribes, we never knew why

Just a graze - They shot without hesitation
Just a graze - Can't kill me
Their guns drown out our screams
I believe to end in disaster
Scattered on the battlefield, no way to retreat

Sacrificed to fight
Dying here to save the wealth of swayers
We have to accept
We ate wrong and our mission is a lie
Falling one by one to save cruel dictators
Made a bloody deal for treasures of the soil

One more day we fight in Nomala
To defeat rebellious tribes, who fight for their right

Say a prayer - so many times
Shouldn't dare - to fake you're kind
Bear the blame - inside of me
Just wade through - black lake of tears

They let me stew - in my own grease
Evil eyes - in death agony
Try to tame - my enemies
Lost the game of conquest and greed

8. Vicious Circle

Roll the dice for my prophecy
Man just forges his destiny
I believe
Play my card in the game of life
Gamble for high stakes
I just have to try to survive

Vicious circle
I cannot escape
Evil eyes blazing in my face
Vicious circle
Did I get ensnared?
Repressed my mind at desperate times
Dwindle into misery

I'm a shame to society
Miss a chance
I'm a renegade
Now it's too late
Never doubt my dishonesty
No one cares
I don't give a damn
I'll never change

9. Smite On The Anvil

[Instrumental]

10. Dungeons Of Doom

Deep in the dungeons of doom and despair
Sneak to a place in the dark
Eke out a living you can stay alive
Better pay heed what I say

Cleft of the rocks are too small to escape
No daylight in my grey world
There is no torch, no candle, no view
To see moon and landscape my mate

Pestilence
In the dungeons of doom
Of cold ashes and coom
Where rags can't keep warm
One last glance
To the dungeons of doom
I'll decay in the ruins
Burn off my disease

Pestilence
In the dungeons of doom
Of cold ashes and coom
Where rags can't keep warm
Trembling in the ruins of despair
Death came as my release

Who put me out of my misery
There is no way to survive
Verminous food you can't even relish
Don't want to be buried alive
A virus corroded my body and soul
Let me go to devils hollow
My temple is burning always yearn to die
Get rid of my sorrow

11. Gift Of Prophecy

Always take no risk
In my world of bliss
Never had a creed
Overcautiously

Telling many lies
They won't recognize
Chase away the ghost
Taking all their gold

You always strive
To avert my eyes
Fear my killing glance

Gift of prophecy
I foresee your stroke of fate
When it's all over now
Gift of prophecy
Determine your destiny
Read it in your hands

Victims buy my fraud
Believed all I told
Call the afterworld
To your ancestors

Their last-ditch attempt
To find out their fate
Gullible and dull
They deserve to fall

12. Alone

Nothing ever works out
Like you want to
Nothing ever happens
Happens like it should
As the wind of time blows by
I close my eyes
Things would never be the same

Look for a distant memory
Deep inside of my heart
Feel the shame suddenly
Run down a dead end street
All I need
There's no excuse
I am free

I'm alone
I'm a hunter on lonely roads
I'm alone
When my damn war is over
I'm alone
Pain of 1000 lies are inside my mind
I'm alone
All alone

There's no return on lonely roads
Spend too many years away from you
Why can't you see
What's real
I am free all alone
On my own
