SACRIFICIUM LYRICS

1. Contradiction Of A Depressed Void

An immortal pain burned in my mind and it's clear to see
I'm the blind architect of my future, the one with the ruined past
Closed my eyes to be part of this fucking game
That inflamed a depression that still grows in my veins (it still grows in my veins)

The present future of myself
In degeneration it reigns

It fucking reigns

I'm trapped in a void of my motionless self
I´ve created a contradiction of a reality of unbearable depressions
I'm blind to the errors of my expectations
That spread it's deformed wings of an unreal fantasy
The present future of myself
In degeneration it reigns

... sometimes the fog of depression tries to dim my clear focus ...
... wants me to dwell into a contradiction of depressed void ...
The present future of myself
In degeneration it reigns
In degeneration it reigns
In degeneration it reigns
In degeneration it reigns
In degeneration it reigns
In degeneration it reigns
It reigns
It reigns
It reigns

2. From Solitude To Insanity

Crouching here
Remembrance escorts me
The sadness reflects my inner fear
I am suffering here alone in the dark
My solitude will lead into insanity

I've lost my love
That's the reason I cry
Is there nothing
That will erase my pain inside?

I am suffering alone in the dark
My solitude leads to insanity
Anguish is the best,the best friend of mine
I've lost my love, it's the reason why I cry

Experiences that will hurt in life
A one way trip without return?
The path that leads to solution
Allows no deviance

Crouching here
Remembrance escorts me
The sadness reflects my inner fear
I am suffering here alone in the dark
My solitude will lead into insanity

I've lost my love
That's the reason why I cry
Is there nothing
That will erase my pain inside?
I'll cling to the hope
Of deliverance for me
But it hurts
To handle this effort
And one day
I will dream of you ...
Remembering all those days
Of honesty
And tears

3. To Forgive And To Suffer

For all of us this had to be done.
Just One who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive and to suffer.

Betrayed and denied - for what he was
Ridiculed and killed - for what he's done.
Left alone in fear - with death at hand

For all of us this had to be done.
Just One who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive and to suffer

The time had to come - for an act of grace
Replacing man made myths - with forgiveness and love

For all of us this had to be done.
Just One who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive and to suffer.

For all of us this had to be done.
Just One who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive and to - suffer.

Betrayed – denied – ridiculed and killed
Left alone in fear with death at hand
He, who remains innocent for all mankind, came to suffer

For all of us this had to be done.
Just one who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive and to suffer

A burden this big - all on one single man
Would this be something - you would take on you?

For all of us this had to be done.
Just One who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive and to suffer.

For all of us this had to be done.
Just One who sets things straight.
A living witness of mercy and grace.
One life to forgive….

4. This Wraith

Back again on the old haunted path.
Back again to where I once was at.
Following the trench I once was digging.
Straight down to the filthy sewer of my human being
Of my human being

Scared to death of losing my faith
Tired of constantly fighting this wraith
The past is aiming my mind like a gun
My newfound life fades into none
Hold me back 'cause I'm about to fall
I'm so scared – scared of losing it all.

Corpseless demons badging my mind
Feeding me with stories I thought I'd left behind
Dastardly they summon to me the one I used to be
The one that has been drowned long ago into the deepest sea

A joyful soul for a filthy soil
And a fire burning bright
Tears of faith for the gift of grace
Once has been given

Scared to death of losing my faith
Tired of constantly fighting this wraith
The past is aiming my mind like a gun
My newfound life fades into none
Hold me back 'cause I'm about to fall
I'm so scared of losing – losing it all.

Scared to death of losing my faith
Tired of constantly fighting this wraith
I'm so scared of losing it all.
I'm about to fall

5. Worship The Grotesque

Promised new life, promised healing
Have faith and follow blind
Promised new hope, promised a better life
Just follow blind

Worship the grotesque – follow your leader and end up in misery
Worship the grotesque – searching for hope where none can be found
Worship the grotesque – follow your leader and end up in misery
Worship the grotesque – searching for hope where none can be found

Worship the grotesque
Worship the grotesque
Worship the grotesque
Worship the grotesque

Promised success, promised power
Have faith and follow blind
Promised new wealth and a better tomorrow
Have faith and follow blind

Promised dreams? promised wishes?
Have faith and follow blind?
Promised the world and to fulfill desires?
This is not for real

Leader after leader, messiah after messiah
Preached their way, grotesque the truth
Leader after leader, messiah after messiah
Are bound to fail

Worship the grotesque – follow your leader and end up in misery
Worship the grotesque – searching for hope where none can be found
Worship the grotesque – follow your leader and end up in misery
Worship the grotesque – searching for hope where none can be found

Worship the grotesque
Worship the grotesque
Worship the grotesque
Worship the grotesque

Promised new life, promised healing
Have faith and follow blind
Promised new hope and a better tomorrow
Have faith and follow blind
Promised you lies, promised you sickness
Go and worship the grotesque
Promised you weakness, promised you hell
Go and worship the grotesque

6. Once Again

Blurry vision, distorted fragments, dusty sight, nothing to focus.
Unprocessed information infiltrating my frozen mind,
Beginning to erase what used to be there.
Loosing everything I called mine.

All I ever wanted to know
And all I ever wanted to be
So meaningless, so damn useless.

Ten – Nine – Eight – Seven – Six – Five – Four – Three – Two - One

My breakdown – the unavoidable
Destruction, my termination
Of the image that I carry along.
Hitting straight forward to the point of no return.
Becoming one with this black singularity.

All I ever wanted to know
And all I ever wanted to be
So meaningless, so damn useless.

Ten – Nine – Eight – Seven – Six – Five – Four – Three – Two – One

This is the countdown to my extinction
I look for light, but there is darkness.
Searching for brightness, but I walk in blackness.

I grope for the wall like the blind,
And I grope as if I had no eyes.
I stumble at noon as at twilight,
Among the strong I am the dead.
Once again I plead - to make me see again.

Ten – Nine – Eight – Seven – Six – Five – Four – Three – Two – One

This is the countdown to my extinction

7. Prey For Your Gods

I'm so sick and tired
Of all this endless whining
And all this senseless complaining
About the God – the God that failed

Call your gods, call 'em loud and for us to hear.
All the old and all the new ones, bring 'em up for all to see.
Line them up, call 'em even louder, we're here to witness what they got.
Are they deaf, do they even care?

Throughout mankind's time
God has to take the blame
For all that we fucked up
Just to turn ourselves away

Why so silent?
Why so quiet?
Where is the promised fire?
Where is the truth you've been praying to?

Mumbling and stuttering
I can't hear a word you say.
All your worthless efforts are taken by the wind.
The gods you cast in stone and where you bow before
They don't care to answer and leave you dying in the end.

Call your gods, call 'em loud and for us to hear.
All the old and all the new ones, bring 'em up for us to see.
Line them up, call 'em even louder, we're here to witness what they got.
Are they deaf, do they even care?

Call your gods, call 'em even louder and for all to hear.
They must be deaf and they don't care.
You are just their prey and nothing else.
Our God reigns
Our God reigns
Our God reigns

8. The Fallen Ones

Nation versus nation
Each claiming to be right
A battlefield of distrust
For the loyal and the foes

The first offense has started
The second one awaits
Face the cruelty of each war
A lunacy you never meet.

I dedicate this, to the fallen ones
That wasted their lives, for a business they where never part of
I owe this, to the promised one
Which sacrificed himself for our sins

To cover your wars with religion
Is another strange chapter of poor fictions
With starry eyes the sheeps believe
Walking brave towards to extinction
The first offense has started
The second one awaits
Face the cruelty of each war
A lunacy you never meet.

I dedicate this, to the fallen ones
That wasted their lives, for a business they where never part of
I owe this, to the promised one
Which sacrificed himself for our sins

9. Shallow Beauty

Power and wealth,
Enhancing your prestige
Craving for more
Increasing your gain

Focused on the goal
Gaining more and more
Sweet charming possessions
The ultimate distraction – from reality

Heaven and earth will pass away
Grass withers and all the flowers will fade
All your precious treasures, worthless and gone
Just the word will stand – forever

Attracted and blinded
By the shallow beauty of things
Strangled, brainwashed and abused
Like corporate's little doll
Corporates little doll
Corporates little doll
Corporates little whore

Heaven and earth will pass away
Grass withers and all the flowers will fade
All your precious treasures, worthless and gone
Just the Word will stand - forever

As maggots and worms
Digest your rotting flesh
And none of them cares
For anything you owned

Born with nothing
Leaving with nothing
Just your guilty soul
And what will it be worth by now?

Heaven and earth will pass away
Grass withers and all the flowers will fade
All your precious treasures, worthless and gone
Just the Word
Just the Word will stand
Just the Word will stand forever

10. Afraid To Breathe

Afraid to breathe
Afraid to breathe the poison thru my lungs
Afraid to see
Afraid to see what we've become

Will this be the end, or how will we live from now (on)
Will we ever realize what we have done
Will there a future and what will it bring for us
Is there a solution in God?

A chapter at its end
A capture without sense
Was it worth what we've become

Who knows what we deserve
Who knows which path was set for us
When we all trust in our believes
We will stand as one
Will this be the end, or how will we live from now (on)
Will we ever realize what we have done
Will there a future and what will it bring for us
Is there a solution in God?
Afraid to breathe
Afraid to breathe the poison thru my lungs
Afraid to see
Afraid to see what we've become
AFRAID TO BREATHE!!!!
Will this be the end, or how will we live from now (on)
Will we ever realize what we have done
Will there a future and what will it bring for us
Is there a solution in God?
A chapter at its end
A capture without sense
Was it worth what we've become
Who knows what we deserve
Who knows which path was set for us
When we all trust in our believes
We will stand as one
Will this be the end, or how will we live from now (on)
Will we ever realize what we have done
Will there a future and what will it bring for us
Is there a solution in God?
