1. Glittering Shades (Intro)

[Instrumental]

2. From Lambs To Lions

We are ready to drop the veil
Unleashed resolve to make the fire burning higher
From Lambs to Lions - New power within
Direction clear - We are dead on target

This is the time to fall or to rise
This is the time to kneel or fly high

Casualties we couldn’t avoid
Men by men we fell
Only the strong
Deserve to survive!

Becoming Legion
Back to back Standing as one
From Lambs to Lions
Becoming legion
From soil Into new heights
From lambs to lions

Forget the past
Come what may
Zero in on your path
walk your own way…
We are ready to drop the veil
Unleashed resolve to make the fire burning higher
Stronger than ever - with lust to kill
Left the weak behind - Finally free

Becoming Legion
Back to back Standing as one
From Lambs to Lions
Becoming legion
From soil Into new heights
From lambs to lions
Becoming legion
Only the strong
Will survive!

This is the time
To Fall or to Rise
This is the time
To Kneel Down or fly high

Becoming Legion
Back to back Standing as one
From Lambs to Lions
Becoming legion
From soil Into new heights
From lambs to lions

Honor to whom
Honor is due

3. The Sinner's Sake

You wanna know why I smile
Facing death
We ain't no ones to commiserate
You wanna see what I see
Fading light
Can you feel the sinner's sake arise?
This is the story of our demise
Downfall
Living on the edge
Living pain with blinded eyes
Nemesis
Shaking the devil's hand
Heading towards the gates of hell
Sodom ahead, no way back!
Into the cold of night
No place to hide
Caused by our own despite
We stand face to face with death
This is called sinner's sake
It's time to paint the walls black
Call the beast by name
Sinful minds delight our souls
This is called sinner's sake
It's time to paint the walls black
Call the beast by name
We all lost our halo so many years ago
Death awaits
Born in a hotbed of sin with a crown of thorns
You wanna know why I smile
Facing death
No one to commiserate
You wanna see what I see
Fading light
Can you feel the sinner's sake arise?
Yes, we stand face to face with death
This is called the sinner's sake
We stand face to face with death
This is called sinner's sake
It's time to paint the walls black
Call the beast by name
Sinful minds delight our souls
This is called sinner's sake
It's time to paint the walls black
Call the beast by name

4. Iron Sights

Run! Run for your life!
Over hill and vale
No reason behind
Don't ask me why!
You're better off dead!
Close your eyes!

Death in the air
At the crack of dawn
New day - new chance
One on one
Life in my hand
The power is mine
It can be so easy
Behind iron sights

An uneven game
I don't give a shit
All I want is you
Cause I am sick
A one on one
This is Beast versus man

5. Death Unites

When the blazing sun is gone
When nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light,
Illuminate eternal night

All light gone, Waiting for nightfall
Dark shades ever by my side
Voices thrill my oppressed mind
The maze of the past turns and twists
No one to help, no place to hide

Walking into nowhere
Singing this song - Singing all alone
Now it's time to leave - To leave this party
Death!

When the blazing sun is gone
When nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light,
Illuminate the night
So could it be, So shall it be
For most but not for me
I cannot see a light up high
Just a deep, empty, pitch black sky

Losing my way in the dark
Suicide in my mind
No sense of life, no place to hide

Now it's time to say
goodbye

[solo]

Mommy and Daddy and me up high
On the timber side by side only death unites

Freedom for our souls
I am coming home

When the blazing sun is gone
When nothing shines upon
Then you hide your little light,
To darken the night
I was a traveler in the dark
Who couldn't see a tiny spark
Who did not know which way to go,
Cause you did not twinkle so

Freedom for our souls
Home sweet home

6. Shadow Play

Hey master tell the scum what to do
So aloof – the true ruler is you
We are the subjects you're the lord
We're unlettered – to ignore

You are neither a highness nor the light
Just a prick who likes to benight

We're the ones – the ones to fear
We're the power – drawing near
Your time of hauteur will soon be gone
You're the traitor – prepare to fall!
Bread and games
A shadow play

Can you feel the storm
Howling thunder heralds change
Resistance's born
Outta darkness of night into new light
Remember the time
The riot of masses praise the day
Fall of the blind
Out of the night into light

Resistance's born!

[Speech]

Can you feel the storm
Howling thunder heralds change
Resistance's born
Outta darkness of night into new light

Remember the time
The riot of masses praise the day
Fall of the blind
Out of the night into light

Can you feel the storm
Howling thunder heralds change

[Speech]

7. Descendants Of The Sun

Hatred - My staff of life
Lost At a forlorn site, at an island called
-I- Have lost my hope
All I see are creatures
Unfortunate and ludicrous

Pride Comes before the fall
Prepare to lick soil from our walls
See my smile

We all believe ourselves to be the chosen ones
The true and only descendants of the sun
Megalomania is the scourge of our time
When will you join the army of the blind?

Arrogance - Inanity
Virtues of our time, straw of the blind
SELECTION of IMPERFECTION
All I see Is a galaxy of self-Righteous humanity

Pride Comes before the fall
Prepare to lick soil from our walls
See my smile

We all believe ourselves to be the chosen ones
The true and only descendants of the sun
Megalomania is the scourge of our time
When will you join the army of the blind?

Open your eyes to outrun the blind
The descendants of the sun

Arrogance - Pride - Greed
those are the virtues of our time

What will Remain when the gloss has gone
Was it really enough to rise atop
Atop all others, descendant of the sun
Remember this: "Pride comes before the fall"

The true and only descendants of the sun
When will you join the army of blind?

8. Last Child Standing

9. Draining Veins

Since one night in young years Impressed by you,
respect far beyond fear Death makes me lewd
I am just like you Veins frozen,
blood like ice I seek the one with the magic eyes
Love at first sight You will be mine!

Forever the forbidden fruit's the best
I want to stroke your virgin chest
Some say I'm cruel
But I just want you…
The day has come
to sleep

You are my trophy Fruit of insanity
Your skin my raiment Its flawless state enchants
Love me - be me Fruit of insanity
Your blood fills up my well
Forever you shall dwell

The Beast unleashed
The time has come
To hush my darling
Don't fear the steel
Between your flesh and skin

You feel me Don't want to die OH Hear me cry
Say no word I'm your lord
A new masterpiece be done AMEN!

Inspiring mentor of my dreams
The White-chapel murders my doctrine -Leather Apron rules-
Their spirit my route
I must claim to be insane and deep within we are all the same
Inside us all We are craving for more

You are my trophy Fruit of insanity
Your skin my raiment Its flawless state enchants
Love me - be me Fruit of insanity
Your blood fills up my well
Forever you shall dwell

More - More - Give me more
Die! - Die! - To be mine
That's the scary truth I love you!
You are my trophy
Your skin my raiment
Love me - be me
Forever you shall dwell

†!YOU ARE MY TROPHY!†
