I fought my demons armed with vengeance but they always won.
These last twelve months could not have gone more wrong and today the sky is crying.
"Do not dismiss, bear with me please.
Help me erase my name from that tombstone."
"If only it was that simple but the damage has been done."
Now I see glances of her in the bottles that sing me to sleep.
"What happened?
You look like shit!"
"The scent of the lilies vanished.
Her silver heart necklace turned black and her emotions turned into stone.
So, hand in hand with misery I roam these filthy fucking streets.
Let´s face it, I am the captain of this sinking ship."

A Doomed Night
03:03

One more... ah, fuck it.
Two more drinks before this intoxicated night takes its ending.
Everything at this side of the bar seems so appealing.
All the girls look so glamorous and myself, well, I am a handsome stud.
I got beers and whiskey and cigarettes and girls all around me.
Now, which one of you lucky gals will be my escort for the night?
We shall drink and swap stories that will all be forgotten in the morning.
I´d better save a couple of bucks for the taxi ride home.
Because tonight I won´t be leaving this side of the bar alone.
When all is said and done, I guess she was kind of fun.
But the results are still the same...
Doomed.

My foes, I see you´ve found your way back home again.
Taunting and haunting my peaceful mind.
This will be the destruction of me, surely.
My foes, I see you´ve found your way back home again.
Taunting and haunting my peaceful mind.
This will be the destruction of me, surely.
This will be the destruction of us, surely.
Baby, we have become the non-existent.
We have been vaporized.
My plan to become a better man rots and lies stinking in the earth.
So this time, my love, you may dig the hole.
For this withered heart.
For this worn-out soul.

Vermin

After midnight the vermin come crawling out of their sewers.
I´m seeing double, I´m heading straight for trouble and I´m outnumbered.
Do you want to see my head crack wide open?
You want to see my blood splatter all over the pavement?
Does that turn you on? Does that turn you on?
Does that make you feel cool?
Brother, you are my savior.
You are my redeemer.
My knight in shining armor.
If our paths do cross again then let´s settle this man to man.
Not man to you and your asshole friends.
Scum!
A kick to the ribs and a punch in the face just ain´t enough to conquer me.
Brother, you are my savior.
You are my redeemer.
My knight in...
Karma may know your name.
I know your face.

Of Pigs

Salvation awaits me.
Take me to my oasis.
I´m through with this hell.
Salvation awaits me.
Take me to my oasis.
I´m through with this hell.
Filthy pig, you didn´t deserve it anyway.
Filthy pig, you should be lead to slaughter.
Retrace my steps.
How the hell did I get here again?
Retrace my steps back to where it all began.
When perfection turned to devastation in a cold heartbeat.
I always knew deep down inside this town would be the death of us.
Filthy pig, you didn´t deserve it anyway.
You should be lead to slaughter.
Scrutinize my reflection.
Is this what I have sunk to?
And further down the abyss I keep sinking.
Salvation awaits me - This is my calling.
Salvation awaits me - I must take the leap.
When perfection turned to devastation in a cold heartbeat.
I always knew deep down inside this town would be the death of us.
Salvation awaits me.
This is my calling.
Salvation awaits me.
I must take the leap.

Goodbye & Godspeed
02:38

We were given the chance to fly again but I amputated our wings instead.
Temptations so hard to resist.
Sadistic cycle.
Bottomless fucking pit.
And sweetness we have now crashed into our demise.
Our eternity came crashing.
Fuck!

Dead Hope

This abandoned room is now my home sweet home.
Where time seems to stand still and the sunshine ceases to exist.
I was so hypnotized by your beauty I failed to see the daggers aiming at my chest.
Then ripping out my beating heart and smearing it on the coldest walls.
This is my home sweet home.
At least now I know what it feels like to have every ounce of joyous anticipation crushed to death before it had barely started.
I look at your rotting pictures.
I read your handwritten letters.
The ink decays like all our yesterdays.
You are my hope dead hope.
Dead hope.

Homesick

So goddamn tired of these days of desperate measures.
So utterly exhausted.
Earlier tonight at the bar the mirror transformed into your face.
You spoke such sweet words and you looked so astonishing.
It was the best conversation I have had in thirteen months.
Then Gary the bartender awoke me from my parallel universe.
"Gary, I´ve had an epiphany."
"Man, go home and get some sleep.
Try and sober up."
Ah, he knows nothing.
The hell with him and his high school diploma.
Back at our apartment I stumbled onto our mixtape from the summer of ´06.
And the tie you gave me for our third anniversary makes a pretty good noose.
December ain´t freezing anymore.
Gone are the days of desperate measures.
You welcome me with your pale arms.
"Welcome home, my love."

Morbid Love

With you around I feel less alone.
You are a true friend, a real compadre.
Through hell and back we´ve been.
Stood together through the thick and the thin.
I can always seek your comfort be it night, morning, noon or day.
Like an avalanche you hit my bloodstream.
You feast on my liver like a ravenous vulture.
I fucking adore you.
You adore me even more.
But seriously, I really do loathe you.
And you loathe me even more.
You´re a goddamn catastrophe.
I am a walking collision.
We´re a match made in hell.
Yet made perfectly for each other.
I can always seek your comfort be it night, morning, noon or day.
I fucking adore you.
You adore me even more.
But seriously, I really do loathe you.
And you loathe me even more.
You´re a goddamn catastrophe.
I am a walking collision.
We´re a match made in hell.
