Cries of the Damned

Some time ago,
Met two strangers
One was the snow
So cold, yet so beautiful
How could he know
She would melt away?
Left him alone
And so pitiful
And he wept
The one of the scorching sun
Blamed himself
For all you had…
Not long ago,
The sun thought of snow,
“Please never know;
I can’t let you go…”
And he weeps
The one of the scorching sun
Blames himself
For all you have done
Murdered by your hand
Gone are the times when things were fine
Now stop and look right at this man
Drowning upon land
Look what you’ve done, what you’ve become
Now stop and listen to the
Cries of the Damned
Now things have changed
For the better
But some things remain
Some things stay the same
Spare me the pain,
Wondering what went wrong
Spare me the shame
Never love again
Still he weeps
The one of the scorching sun
Blames himself
For all you have done
Murdered by your hand
Gone are the times when things were fine
Now stop and look right at this man
Drowning upon land
Look what you’ve done, what you’ve become
Now stop and listen to the
Cries of the Damned

Us men are vile beasts
But none could outdo him
Until I did
Until I undid him
You didn't deserve any of this
You didn't need any of this
I can't get it outta’ my head, it's true;
The extent of the pain inflicted on you
You fucking ruined her
Her head is fucked up and all because of you
I swear I'd kill a part of me to
Watch your blood pool around the soles of my shoes
(Promising you) Promising you, under pain of death
(I swear) I swear on my life;
(I…) My soul will not rest
(Will not rest…) I shall not find peace
(‘Til he feels…) Until he feels the dark caress
(Death) And soil engulfs his teeth
Now I'm not an advocate of black and white
'Cause my code has always been in different shades of grey
But I think you would have known in this particular case,
The line ain't blurred enough to say it's okay
I'll see you in hell where I'll fucking kill you again
'Cause it doesn't really feel like I've been fully spent
There's so much more I could put you through
My hands are shaking from the thought of ending you
(Promising you) Promising you, under pain of death
(I swear) I swear on my life;
(I…) My soul will not rest
(Will not rest…) I shall not find peace
(‘Til he feels…) Until he feels the dark caress
(Death) And soil engulfs his teeth
I can't cleanse the darkness that's grown inside of her (you’ve thrown inside of her)
But I'll settle with the second best thing;
Your end's contriver
This one is for you
My Survivor
My Survivor
(Promising you) Promising you, under pain of death
(I swear) I swear on my life;
(I…) My soul will not rest
(Will not rest…) I shall not find peace
(‘Til he feels…) Until he feels the dark caress
(Death) And soil engulfs his teeth
(You…) Don't tell me you didn't want this
(Had him doomed…) No need to be ashamed
(When you gave…) You knew you had him doomed the
(His name) Moment you gave me his name

It’s been so long since I felt love,
I almost forgot the taste
But with you so far out of reach,
It seems like such a waste
No, I’ve had enough
For one day
So far away…
Why does fate
Spit on me?
My only chance for love
So far away
You’re the reason I still wear shades
When the clouds cover the sun
So bring me the shelter of your arms
So our hearts may be one
No, I’ve had enough
For one day
Why does fate
Spit on me?
My only chance for love
So far away
By your side
I’d spend my days
But with oceans between us
It slips away
Despite the beauty we have made
I’ve fallen for a shade
Why does fate
Spit on me?
My only chance for love
So far away
By your side
I’d spend my days
But with oceans between us
It slips away
Far away

Fire engulfs my soul, can’t let it burn me away
It seems like this disease
Like it or not, is here to stay
This heated furnace inside of me (killing me)
Scorches my skin and bone
Inside out, all night and day
Pain; a place I’m too goddamn familiar with
The question bugging me;
Is it too much to just wanna’ live?
I only wanna’ rip it out of me (tear it out)
I guess that’s too much to ask
I’ll express
What and how I’ve always expressed
I’m such a mess
But you won’t see that I’m distressed
Fuck you, fuck it all
Now I’m not so fucking small
You know I can’t help that I’m
So messed up, wish I could change
I’m so fed up with being
So damn strange
I can’t seem to wrap my head around it all
These pseudo-social rules
Dragging me down to your level
I don’t want in on this insanity (just get out)
I got enough of my own
I’ve spent my whole fucking life
Being oppressed
And I’m just too fucking pissed
To be depressed
Fuck you, fuck it all
Now you’re not so fucking tall
You know I can’t help that I’m
So messed up, wish I could change
I’m so fed up with being
So damn strange
I’ll express
What and how I’ve always expressed
I’m such a mess
But you won’t see that I’m distressed
I’ve spent my whole fucking life
Being oppressed
And I’m just too fucking pissed
To be depressed
Fuck you, fuck it all
Now I’m not so fucking small
And now you’re not so fucking tall
I just fucking hate you all
You know I can’t help that I’m
So messed up, wish I could change
I’m so fed up with being
So damn strange

A boy’s eyes glisten with tears
His first love just said that they’re through
Today’s pain doesn’t come near
To what he’ll feel in a year or two
A young woman gives out her love
To every next man who comes along
But their touch is never enough
To make her feel like she belongs
But this strange unity
Is more bitter than sweet
United only in sorrow
No hope left for our tomorrow
A parent buries their child;
A grief they thought they’d never know
How tragic that all the while
In what they feel, they’re not alone
But this strange unity
Is more bitter than sweet
United only in sorrow
No hope left for our tomorrow
Utterly lost since the very dawn
And now with dusk all we can do is mourn
But this strange unity
Is more bitter than sweet
United only in sorrow
No hope left for our tomorrow
Utterly lost since the very dawn
And now with dusk all we can do is mourn
United only in sorrow
We are doomed to wander,
Blindly search in vain

We’ve stood by far too long
How could we be so blind?
Where did this all go wrong?
This is the last time
I’ll never let this go
Until you’re six foot below
No longer standing by
While I still hear their cries
Bring the change
No one will save us, we must safeguard ourselves
Bring the pain
Trying to keep calm while justice goes undealt
Dying to deal you the agony they felt, yeah
Now that our minds are made
You won’t be here for long
Call it an unfair trade
For those you’ve done wrong
Why can’t I let this go?
I guess I already know
I won’t stand idly by
I’ll avenge every cry
Bring the change
Break from the boundaries set by those who failed us
Bring the pain
Trying to keep calm while justice goes undealt
Dying to deal you the agony they felt, yeah
Bring the change
Forget compassion as we settle the score
Bring the pain
Trying to keep calm while justice goes undealt
Dying to deal you the agony they felt
Trying to keep calm while justice goes undealt
Dying to deal you the agony they felt, yeah

I would spit venom into those scars
If I wasn’t warmed by the setting sun
But summer is passing and fall will breeze by
And winter shall claim everyone
Just warm my Reptile blood
‘Cause you won’t like the cold
You wouldn’t love me, if you could
If you truly knew my soul
I have a low tolerance for weakness
And no patience for the lambs
The scales that I’ve hidden are starting to show
And out come the claws from my hands
Just warm my Reptile blood
‘Cause you won’t like the cold
You wouldn’t love me, if you could
If you truly knew my soul
Just warm my Reptile blood
‘Cause you won’t like the cold
You wouldn’t love me, if you could
If you truly knew my soul
You’ll never warm my Reptile blood
‘Cause you can’t stand the cold
You’ll never love me, never could
Now you truly know my soul

Glowing reflections
Light up the bitumen tonight
Where does this lonesome road end?
When will I see you again?
You should’ve known it so
It had always been doomed right from the start
Now you can’t let it go
And it just breaks away your heart
No more love to give (I have found)
Found and lost was my life’s peak
They all said just live (I’ve lost count)
Count me out, there’s nothing left for me
Deathly silence…
Your tongue since we last spoke
Punchline of your cruellest joke
Where does this torture end?
When am I sane again?
You should’ve known it so
It had always been doomed right from the start
Now you can’t let it go
And it just breaks away your heart
No more love to give (I have found)
Found and lost was my life’s peak
They all said just live (I’ve lost count)
Count me out, there’s no one there for me
There comes a time when one must concede
There comes a time to set oneself free
Look to the skies and just bask in the moonlight
Come treat your eyes to your last perfect sight
Look to the skies and just bask in the moonlight
Come treat your eyes before leaving tonight
Gaze at the stars and say your goodbyes
Live on eternal as your mortal being dies…

Cried like you wanted, so young and carefree
Moments like these are suspended in memory
Drunken, I slipped on those three fucking words
Oh, how I wish that you had not heard
Do I still never cease to amaze you?
Is it I who still frequents your dreams?
Do you still ache for the touch of my hand?
Are you still bursting at the seams?
Open the book
Tear out the page
Kindle the flame
Burn you away
“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
I’m burning this Little Black Book of your Lies
Quivering lips and a lump in my throat
Thank you for showing a sadness I’ve never known
Noise in my ears, a new dark to my eyes
Oh, how you’ve drained all my love for life
How foolish it was to pursue these dreams
The dreams of our subconscious mind
Guess you won’t shout it from the rooftops
I guess it was a matter of time
Open the book
Tear out the page
Kindle the flame
Burn you away
“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
I’m burning this Little Black Book of your Lies
Will memories release me?
How long ‘til I’m set free?
Tear out my heart and bare my soul
I will never be, never be whole
You once told me I was winter’s night
Crisp, cold stars in the sky, shining bright
(Did you not once tell me)
Did you not tell me that someone once told you to
(Take not stars for granted)
Take not the stars for granted
(For there will always be)
For there will always be overcast nights to make
(Skies a little more dead)
The skies a little more dead
Tell the lie that it’s okay
‘Cause I’d believe every word that you say
Guess I ended up with more
Than what I bargained for
Our fears turned out to have some justification
Now we’re without any proper explanation
I’m not myself when I’m stranded on my own
You went away; now I’m doomed to be alone
Say the word and I’ll be there
‘Cause I cannot recall the scent of your hair
Even after all this time
You’re always on my mind
Open the book
Tear out the page
Kindle the flame
Burn you away
“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
I’m burning this Little Black Book of your Lies
“Whatever it takes…”
“Whatever it takes…” Liar
“Whatever it takes…” Lies
“Whatever it takes…” Liar
“Whatever it takes…” You lied
