NETHERBIRD LYRICS

1. As I Die

[originally by Paradise Lost]

STARE AS EYES UPHOLD ME
AND WAIT TO SEE RIGHT THROUGH
AND CURSE ME... THE LOVE HAS CRIPPLED YOU

SHADOWS HAUNT THE NIGHT
BURNING MY DISGUISE

REAPING THROUGH THE TRUTH
LIFE BECOMES UNTRUE

SIN THE LAST DIVERSION
MY FATE WILL BE UNTOUCHED
DISMISSED NOW, THE ANGER OF A FOOL

SHADOWS HAUNT THE NIGHT
FORGIVE ME AS I DIE

TAKING A CHANCE
AND TAKE WHAT YOU GAIN
MY SOUL IT HAS NO PRICE
TOTAL RELEASE IS OUT OF HARMS WAY
UNTIL I CAN DECIDE
YOU PUSH ME, CAN'T YOU SEE, I'M NOT REAL
TEARS ARE FLOWING FREE, PASSING BY, AS I DIE

2. Nepenthe

[originally by Sentenced]

think about all the good in your life
- it's only temporary
think about all the positive sides in life
- they never last forever

so drink to forget
and drown all your sorrow
bury your dreams
choose mind refinery

all the tears and the fears and the lies and the cries and the...
(nepenthe)
all the tears and the fears and the lies and the cries of the past

when the light of the chosen has died
when the Master is slave to his life

all the tears and the fears and the lies and the cries and the...
(forget)
all the love and the hate and the hate and the hate for you - my love

when the light of chosen has died
it is time to do something right, for once, goddamned!

so drink to forget
and drown all your sorrow
bury your dreams
and choose Catharsis!

all the tears and the fears and the lies and the cries and the...
(revenge)
all the hate in the world is the power to bring you down!

when the light of chosen has died
it is time to pay back for their crimes

3. Alison Hell

[originally by Annihilator]

["a young girl, terrified, there's something out there. but is it real? it must be, because it's watching her. her pleas for comfort and reassurance are ignored, and soon, all she has left is her imagination... and that's the most terrifying thing of all."]

alice isn't it frightening
alice aren't you scared
alice isn't it wonderful
living life afraid
don't look around the corner
i might be lurking there
under the bed at night
you're up till dawn again

alison hell, your mind begins to fold
alison hell, aren't you growing cold
alison hell, you are looking blue
alice in hell, what else can you do

i begin my rule, life hideous in your mind
crying out, you've lost your doll
it isn't worth a dime

alison hell, your mind begins to fold
alison hell, aren't you growing cold
alison hell, what are you looking for
alice in hell, soon i close the door

sitting in the corner, you are naked and alone
no one listened to your fears, you've created me

alice isn't it frightening
alice aren't you scared
i was killed at birth
i shoot this final scene
you're in the basement
you're trapped insanity

alison hell, what were you looking for
alison hell, as i close the door
alison hell, here you shall dwell
alison hell, alice dwells in hell

alice
alison
alice
in hell

goodbye

4. Firmament Vacation

[originally by The Soundtrack Of Our Lives]

They're gonna build a brand new planet
They're gonna leave for another world
They're gonna build a brand new planet
And leave us all here on our own
Just like they did before

They're gonna build a new dimension
And make a soundtrack of our lives
They're gonna build a new dimension
And drill a hole of the imaginary time

They say we're part of an alien nation
Better run for the human race
They say we're part of an alien nation
Belive it when they say that we gotta get out of this place...

They're gonna build a brand new planet
They're gonna make it on the other side
Maybe some day you will find it, if you think it worth all of your strife

Moutains made of over-indulgence
And a sea made if heroin
They're gonna build a brand new planet and leave us all here on our own
Just like they did before...
