Intro 01:10
2.
In the name of love We're digging graves. In the name of hope We become the slaves. We’ve renounced everything And finally went blind. We’ll never be at home And have forgotten to die. Welcome to the field of fainting flowers At the edge of the void. Burn your eyes and then discover The beauty you can not enjoy. This place Fell from grace. In the name of love We have learned to lie. In the name of faith We trespass the line. Among wandering souls, Among the broken dreams We're in the city of the damned Cutting off our wings. Welcome to the field of fainting flowers At the edge of the void. Burn your eyes and then discover The beauty you can not enjoy. This place Fell from grace.

Neon Lights 03:44
All is constant. Nothing changes. Every night someone calls you by name. This damned city never sleeps, Colored lights are dancing in the streets. Let's fly like an angel. That's what you always wanted to. The sky looks like a mirror For you. The ringing silence is like a plea. But all the secrets are intangible, you see? Shady avenues will hide Forgotten stories of unknown people's lives. Let's fly like an angel. That's what you always wanted to. The sky looks like a mirror For you. Neon lights are in your eyes.
4.
Pray to yourself at bedtime and let the night come in. Have a sleep before the dawn to see a face of... Do you believe in eternal love? Do you believe in... That is your choice to choose this way, don't tell me you are tired. Dreams full of passion and animal desires. Do you believe in eternal love? Do you believe in... A face of sin. Will you remember my name When I blow out your flame? Your movements are constrained. Don't try, don't try to escape. Do you believe in eternal love? Do you believe in sin?
5.
Surrender 04:12
Time is too slow for me - I'm waiting for someone. I'm knocking on the door outside and always run away. This is the last pray. The symbols of decay Shine into my eyes. But what's the cost? This is the last trip Through endless needs. I'm almost free. My enemy is leaving me. It's my surrender, Complete surrender. You were always there Through my wasted years. I know you're the savior, The ashtray of my dreams. The city bathes in sunshine, in rays of rising day. It was a hot and stuffy night and morning brought some hope. No matter where, no matter with whom - we are alone in solitude. A lie or truth, win or lose - these are values of yesterday. It's my surrender, Complete surrender.
6.
Tomorrow 03:35
Our bodies are prisons for alien souls. In the arms of loneliness we feel no loss. Aspirations run high but we feel unsure. I still believe we are enslaved by fate. Who has the truth? Yesterday will never come back, Don't lose yourself in the past. Tomorrow is a chance to start again, But no one trusts another man. What is between love and hate, war and peace? This city dies under gloomy sky full of rain. Love is still out there, in slums of pain. Yesterday will never come back, Don't lose yourself in the past. Tomorrow is a chance to start again, But you know, no one trusts another man.
