Lyrics - Songs about life and death

 

 


                                    


 

You’re wearing black
When winter comes, something tears me down
My life force is dwindling
Heavy fog holds me tight
My laugh is gone
Depressed I am
When sun not shines
But shadows becomes wide
You’re wearing black to hide all your light
You’re wearing black to hide all your light
Just open up only for me
Profound sadness
Overtakes me
My inner demons are hunting me
You’re wearing black to hide all your light
You’re wearing black to hide all your light
You’re wearing black to hide all your light
Just open up only for me
Ohhh you’re born on santa lucia
You are my guiding light
Ohhh you’re born on santa lucia
Without you i’ll die tonight
Open up only for me
I’ll soak you up, my elixier
Lifeless and pallid
In front of you
Blessed spirit bright I’ll need you 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

 

Ride into the light
Immortal sound of eternal doom
Black shadows dancing on the wall
By the gods, why Charon, didn’t you take our coins?
With flashing eyes he spoked to us
And the pillars started to tremble
This is the end, in this we dwell
Let us ride into the light
Let us ride into the light
Death suits you so well, I’m delight to see you in hell
The sky has turned black, the earth (has) collapsed
Your fault I dare to yell
This is the end, in this we dwell
Let us ride into the light
Let us ride into the light

 

Lady death
I’m so tired, nothing can enlighten my soul
Where is my fire? Deep in me I’m cold
I’m broken down.  I faced my fears for so long
I’m old
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death
I’m feeling useless - words of wisdom I don’t need
My hole body hurts me, limbs and muscles most my soul
There is this feeling, I will leave everything behind
I’m old      Uuuhh take my body and soul
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death
I’m so tired, nothing can enlighten my soul !
There is no fire! Deep in me I’m cold. I’m old
I’m not afraid
But I’m waiting for so long
Accept my desire
My wish of death is so strong
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death come and kiss me - release me from my pain
Lady death release me from my pain
Release me from my pain  (I’ll release you from your pain)
Release me from my pain
Release me from my pain  (I’ll release you from your pain)

 

He died alone - the tragic death of Petrus Thomas Ratajczyk - called the green man
Friday morning, may thirteenth
It began with a joke
On the webpage a tombstone (with his name on)
People thought maybe he had a stroke
(he died alone) he died alone
(he died alone) he died alone
(he died alone) he died alone
He died alone
No one was by his side
5 years later, April fourteenth
He had been sick in bed with the flu
While he was clean and sober
He died alone and thats the bitter truth
(he died alone) he died alone
(he died alone) he died alone
(he died alone) he died alone
He died alone
No one was by his side
A mellow, likable man - he died alone
Who suffered broken hearts
A glass of wine on the table - he died alone
And prozac in his hand
(he died alone) he died alone
(he died alone) he died alone
(he died alone) he died alone
No one was by his side (he died alone)
No one was by his side

 

Winter Rose
She says, she’s insensitive
She has no more feelings
Her harsh look compels everyone to his knees
But I see through her, she needs me
Try to understand, Winter Rose you bloom also on a summers day
Try to live again, your thorns lay them down for me
I make warm your frozen blood
I know it’s type A negative
There are no tears to wipe away on your face
But I bring back your feelings - bring back your feelings
Try to understand, Winter Rose you bloom also on a summers day
Try to live again, your thorns lay them down for me
Try to unterstand, Winter Rose you bloom also on a summers day
Try to live again, your thorns lay them down for me
Lay your thorns down for me - I bring back your feelings
Lay your thorns down for me
Winter Rose
Try to understand, Winter Rose you bloom also on a summers day
Try to live again, your thorns lay them down for me
Try to understand, Winter Rose you bloom also on a summers day
Try to live again, your thorns lay them down for me

 

 

Fortress
Your words they hurt me - but it’s not what you say
Your fire eats me - as if I were nothing
You interrupt me - you keep on doing it
I build a wall - into the dark of me
You suffocate me - and I raise a fortress
You suffocate me - and I raise a fortress
Will you hear me out please - before all is over
Another scar on my soul - and I’m losing my balance
It’s getting worse and worse - ohh your foolish mouth
How can I break this curse - it poisons the well
You suffocate me - and I raise a fortress
You suffocate me - and I raise a fortress
You suffocate me - and I raise a fortress
You suffocate me - and I raise a fortress

 

Mors Tua Vita Meta
Organ shortage and consequences, for donor and recipient
In a world of ambivalences, it’s hard to find participants
Death gets a meaning, lives are saved, so think about a living will
No one’s heart is depraved, save the one who’s really ill
They took your bones to the cemetery, and your heart is now in my chest
Your soul is entering sanctuary, your death is my life
They took your bones to the cemetery, and your heart is now in my chest
Your soul is entering sanctuary, your death is my life
The longer on the waiting list, the sicker you become
If a donor doesn’t exist, that’s what I’m suffering from
A noble gesture before you fading, a part from you will survive
When you’re dead I’m celebrating, to know you are in me alive
They took your bones to the cemetery, and your heart is now in my chest
Your soul is entering sanctuary, your death is my life
They took your bones to the cemetery, and your heart is now in my chest
Your soul is entering sanctuary, your death is my life
Your beloved ones so devastating, so deprived of all their hope
No more waiting and hesitating, were you really dead or not?
Let the dead man start to rise, bring me back to life
I owe you my life,  I owe you my life, I owe you my life
They took your bones to the cemetery, and your heart is in my chest
Your soul is entering sanctuary, your dead is my life
They took your bones to the cemetery, and your heart is in my chest
Your soul is entering sanctuary, your dead is my life
Mors tua vita mea - your death is my life
Mors tua vita mea - your death my life
Mors tua vita mea - your death is my life
Mors tua vita mea

 

Dance Of Death
Songs of hope they are like drugs - lift you up to let you fall
Songs of hope and a thousand hugs - no cure for us just death for all
And if you think you can’t take this anymore, you are not alone
Take a last breath then your body will let free your soul
I told you, all things must pass, I told you, don’t be afraid
So let us dance, the dance of death
Cause we’re caught in sadness
So let us dance, the dance of death
This cruel life is just heartless
Rallying calls and encouragement - lift us up to let us fall
Earthly life is terminal - the savior will get us all
So let us dance, the dance of death
Cause we’re caught in sadness
So let us dance, the dance of death
This cruel life is just heartless
So let us dance, the dance of death
We leave this state of emptiness
And dance into death,
Cause life keeps us in darkness
Death should be celebrated as much as birth and we only fear and dread it


 

I Rise Through Debris And Dust
A million ways to tear me down - you did it well
You buried me deep, but I see light and not hell
You ripped my heart out, you left my soul pale and not bright
You’re in the spotlight while I’m struggling through the night
I rise through debris and dust
I rise through debris and dust
There is hope in me, there’s something that I learned
I released my darkened heart now announce my glorious turn
I rise through debris and dust
I rise through debris and dust
I rise through debris and dust
I rise through debris and dust
