Face the truth that
Everything is a lie
No need for sacrifice
There is no hell or glory
There is no paradise
Welcome to a new age of terror
Where everything is meaningless
And all life is forfeit
Cut me wide open
To realize
My soul remains
On the same place
Far away
From reality
Everything is a lie
No need for sacrifice
There is no hell or glory
There is no paradise

And so I wait
On the darkest of places
I tear my soul apart
To keep myself alive
To deal with the madness
Sacrifice
Swallow lies
Keep your head up
To the sky
Hurt yourself
Give it all
Find yourself
Burn it all
Rip your chest open
Show me your beating heart
Gimme your blood
To fill my own sea
I’ll see myself in your very soul
I’ll raise your child for all to see
It is the price
That we must pay
The burning lie
In wich we lay
The fear of failure
The pain, the tears
Will never take me
write us fear
paint the love
design the next nighmare
or just let yourself open
to take the pain out
Sacrifice
Swallow lies
Keep your head up
To the sky
Hurt yourself
Give it all
Find yourself
Burn it all
Rip your chest open
Show me your beating heart
Gimme your blood
To fill my own sea
I’ll see myself in your very soul
I’ll raise your child for all to see
It is the price
That we must pay
The burning lies
In wich we lay
Transcend the fear
The pain, the tears
That gives life light

Rays of light, Storm in my eyes
Golden angel, Flower in bloom
Gentle touch, Like a leper's dream
From the heavens, to kill my gloom
So unparalleled
Can't see where I'm going
Blasted corpse
Rotten mind I'm growing
Feel the cold embrace
Faded renaissance
Sulphur in my lungs
Melting me away
Why?
God why can't I just separate
Why can't I keep them separated
My heart, my soul they remain
United in fear
Fear, fear, fear, terror.
So I just turn to myself
Become the coward
And the deceiver
I can show you somebody else
To find my own place
To feel alive again
I could give away all my gold
To see the same colors you can see
But there ain't no safe place
No sane place for me

Fading lights
Scraps of hope
Crossing the night
All over the sky
All in vain
Smothering
Confidence
Wishing to die
Star crossed
Lover
Ravenous
Hunger
Leaving early
But wishing to stay
Laughing out
Unable to cry
Left alone
With nothing to say
Choked
Away from the light
Fuck it!
Shine to the world
Like a falling star
Grab onto hope
Show yourself to the fight
Face the enemy at the gates
Carve your name into time
For what you seek lies beyond that hill
Beyond that hill

"Pode-se imaginar que não
houve excessos nem carências,
e que saí quite com a vida.
Mas não! Tem um pequeno saldo positivo.
Não tive filhos. Não transmiti a
nenhuma criatura
o legado de nossa miséria."
To the worm that first gnawed the cold flesh of my corpse
I dedicate with fond memory these Posthumous Memoirs.
Seeking glory among men
Only to find... delusion
There is no hope for him in this world
Wicked mind, the devil boy
Perverse in nature. Slavery
Turning gold into lust, recklessly
Love has failed you
And your life
Across the sea
Away from it
Searching for
The one thing
That may, never be found
Back at home
To face life again
Find his old mother on a dying bed
This is what loss,
Really feels like
When you live a life within a lie
Then he got away
Rotten to the core
Until loneliness
Made his life a bore
Should he get a wife?
Maybe politics?
None of this will work
In a soul that weak
Piling up frustrations
He takes another soul
There is no pain to be had in this world
And now, in adultery
A little light, a little song
Death, miscarriage
End of love
And the enemy only grows strong
Seeking fame
To chase away life
Finding solace once again
But tragedy has its ways
My dear,
Soon to be dead
I did not know love
I did not know fame
Me and life, we are even.
Only I remain.
I did not have children,
I did not transmit
To any creature
the legacy of our misery.

I heard he sang a good song
I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him
To listen for a while
And there he was, this young boy
A stranger to my eyes
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly, with his song
Telling my whole life
With his words
Killing me softly with his song
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
And read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly, with his song
Telling my whole life
With his words
Killing me softly with his song
He sang as if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me
As if I wasn't there
And he just kept on singing
Singing clear and strong
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly, with his song
Telling my whole life
With his words
Killing me softly with his song
