13. Serenade of Self-Destruction (9:52)
Never could we see
What lies deeper
Seeming that our view
Can't be changed
Deciding where to go
And believe in your disaster
Deleting a future untold
This is the final deceiver
This is the devil in me
Expecting deeds in the making
Will show no final relief
Ever would we dance
With the reaper
Seething in a monstrous cage
Ideas meant to placate
When meeting your disaster
Are only for a desperate fool
Destructive thoughts to mislead us
Can come from deep underground
Believing sources unbroken
Will tear the legion apart
Will we be forever free as we unchain our souls
From life forever
You are just a slave to the dust
Another time, where you and me will be freed
with one more last endeavour
You cannot escape your fate now
No
Try me, don't deny me
Please embrace me in your peace
I want to fly into the bright
Would you please guide my last goodbye
Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending
On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight
Now come and see divinity where night turns day
So far away from heaven
You will never earn my trust
Provoke the need, give word to deed,
And dive into another god-like atmosphere
You will never find your way out
No
I'd rather die
Than breathe in my shame
They'll know my name
All hell in flames
For our faith
We proudly die
(For it we would die)
For our sovereign
All hell will arise
(Hell will surely rise)
We'll serve our cause
In earning reward
(Earning our reward)
Collision of skies
The ocean wept dry
(Every ocean dry)
Another's desperation flying through the emptiness
As my degradation throws me out of line
Take the final flight
Into the serenade forever lost in me
Try me, don't deny me
Please embrace me in your peace
I want to fly into the bright
Would you please guide my last goodbye
Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending
On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight
What lies deeper
Seeming that our view
Can't be changed
Deciding where to go
And believe in your disaster
Deleting a future untold
This is the final deceiver
This is the devil in me
Expecting deeds in the making
Will show no final relief
Ever would we dance
With the reaper
Seething in a monstrous cage
Ideas meant to placate
When meeting your disaster
Are only for a desperate fool
Destructive thoughts to mislead us
Can come from deep underground
Believing sources unbroken
Will tear the legion apart
Will we be forever free as we unchain our souls
From life forever
You are just a slave to the dust
Another time, where you and me will be freed
with one more last endeavour
You cannot escape your fate now
No
Try me, don't deny me
Please embrace me in your peace
I want to fly into the bright
Would you please guide my last goodbye
Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending
On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight
Now come and see divinity where night turns day
So far away from heaven
You will never earn my trust
Provoke the need, give word to deed,
And dive into another god-like atmosphere

Would you please guide my last goodbye
Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending
On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight
