[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED]

[music: Laihiala & SENTENCED, lyrics: Laihiala]

I've dragged myself through the blood and mud
and with burning eyes pushed the love away'
No, I'm not the kind of man who'd play for keeps'
-The enchantment lies in the moment of goodbyes
For eternity'
-My sun has set down
I dream to flee'
As I suffer "the black" bleed into me
I regret every single day I ever lived in my life
I gave all I had in me' So it's time to say Goodbye
The breath of wind beneath my beating wings
is slowly dying down'
-Yet raging it's final blow!
As it crumbles down' my castle in the air
The relieving words of farewell end my earthly Hell
For eternity'
-My sun has set down
It has ceased to be'
The lightning that once burned in me
I regret every single day I ever lived in my life
I gave all I had in me' So it's time to say Goodbye

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, lyrics: Lopakka]

Yes, autumn's here again'
to put all forms of life to an end
-Death has taken over and slowly fades the light away
The deadly shadows fall'
and the bleeding sun sinks down below
-The first flakes of snow guide me on my last pathway
Alive no more' what once was green has turned to red
Leaves start their fall' gray with the whiteness of what's dead
The wintry frost comes crawling
freezing all life that's on its way
The first dead leaves come falling,
hovering in the air with the rain
I feel the flaming frost'
I feel the burning ice and snow for the first time
since the night she was taken away
Alive no more' what once was green has turned to red
Leaves lightly fall' gray with the whiteness of what's dead
The wintry frost comes crawling
ceasing all life that's on its way
Dead frozen leaves come falling,
hovering in the air with the rain
'hovering in the air'
"'and as the last leaf hovers down upon the ground,
the end is at hand - I'll find the one I came looking for'"
Alive no more' what once was green has turned to red
Leaves lightly fall' gray with the whiteness of what's dead
The wintry frost comes crawling
freezing all life that's on its way
The last dead leaves come falling,
hovering in the air with the rain
The End of Life comes crawling
ceasing my bleeding heart and now;
The last dead leaf comes falling,
hovering lightly down upon the ground
'upon the frozen ground'

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, lyrics: Laihiala]

The silent peace this anguished morning brings leaves me to my grief
Oh, so many years I've been married to the grave
These bitter tears fill up my sorrowed eyes as I lay my head down
and beg myself to be so brave'
Oh, how I miss your loving hate' And yet I miss her loving hate
Cursed be this love I bear
Bereaved be this heart that bleeds for her
The love of the man lives here'
-On grain and the earth, rain and the chilling air
The burning passion the glowing sunset gives will leave me to my joy
and I'll laugh upon the stroke that murders me
So farewell my love, take all of myself and kill this love forsaken
and please send me no need of thee'
Oh, how I miss your loving hate' And yet I miss her loving hate
Cursed be this love I bear
Bereaved be this heart that bleeds for her
The love of the man lives here'
-On grain and the earth, rain and the chilling air

[music: Laihiala & SENTENCED, lyrics: Laihiala]

The stars shine down on the crimson sky as the night falls upon
The pain arrives and hurts like a twist of a knife'
It makes him wish to be gone
So he's facing the curtain descending with a razorblade smile
He's taken "the path neverending" yet only to walk for a while
He's gazing through all that is there
and sees the world left for him to despise'
Blissfully feeling so dead, no glimmer in his eyes
So no more joy or forgiving, he's one with misery
Nothing left to believe in, he's reaching out to be free
On that trail the warrior rides
chasing the fall of his soul
Life's been too dire so the fullest desire has died
deep from inside
On that trail the warrior rides
from the cradle straight to the grave
Within his heart he feels his soul's being barred
yet aberrant' aberrant

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, words: the serial self-killer]

"'.I am the light that shall lead you to darkness'"
Well, here I am, I'm back again
From the Deadlands I descend'
back from the dead, back from The End
'I'm here to take Revenge!
Soon the deathly dusk will fall
and the Night I've waited for
'at the dawn you'll live no more
Breathing through Death' Living for Bloodshed'
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I live to kill and kill to live
And long for dying endlessly
Each time I kill I'm born again
'I have become The End
Thus I am and thus I'll die
yet another thousand times
'I am dead and I am alive
Take a deep breath'
It's the last one you will get!!!
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I'm the Suicider seeking for the End of Life
(But) killing me is not enough to cease the flame inside
'Thus I kill and thus I`ll die'
Thus I will live for all time
[chorus]

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, lyrics: Lopakka]

now every single cloud becomes a raging storm
as I go seeking for the one I used to live for'
since your love was taken away
my heart's been beating empty beats
well, it will end tonight'
-the blade shall set me free
a steady hand with this sharpened cold steel
will help me wipe away this pain that I feel
the rain comes falling down
my life flows to the ground
no longer feeling the pain
my flame now fading away
the rain comes falling down
my life flows to the ground
no longer feeling the pain
my flame now fading away
so here I'm lying on these dead and bloody autumn leaves
waiting for death to take me where I want to be'
a steady hand with this sharpened hard steel
will help me wipe away this agony I feel
the rain comes falling down
my life flows to the ground
no longer feeling the pain
my flame now fading away
the rain comes falling down
my life flows to the ground
no longer feeling the pain
these leaves now becoming my grave
no longer feeling the flame
no longer feeling the rain

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, lyrics: Lopakka]

I have seen my funeral in a thousand dreams
Its beauty'
Now the night descends
and drowns me in this dream once again'
No stars tonight' they all have ceased
No moon tonight to cast its gleam
'just a single flame lighting my journey'
Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
Endless sleep' giving me peace
and eternally bringing release
Nothing more to be done
Nothing more to be lived for me
All my life I've waited for this eternal night
and now it's time'
soon they'll lower me down deep into the icy ground
Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
'and once there'll be a time that I have waited for
when the dawn will steal my dreams no more'
Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
Grave Sweet Grave - welcoming me home
Grave Sweet Grave - I'll be yours till the dawn
(the dawn shall steal my dreams no more)

Just take the flame and Burn Yourself…
-Burn the pain away!!!

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, lyrics: Lopakka]

Take this love, my dear, and cherish it in your heart
You shall have no fear'
Nothing could tear us apart
Accept this love sincere, from the bottom of my heart
for now our time is here'
and love shall heal the scars
Now twilight hides the clear, and haunts the day away
We cross the last frontier,
and it sets our hearts ablaze
The Waves lie still and gleaming on Our Sea
'and we're drifting down the stream'
Let's drown ourselves in this love
my darling, my only one
Let's give our lives for this love we are in
- make it forever'
Let me dry your tears
and hold you in embrace
Until we disappear in the crimson haze
The Flames rise still so freezing on Our Sea
'and we're drifting down the stream'
Let's drown ourselves in this love
my darling, my only one
Let's give our lives for this love we are in
(we'll) do it together'
"'and we take our dive into the waters of eternity'
'here all pain has died and the only ones are you and me'"
The Haze lies still and bleeding on Our Sea
'and we're drifting down the stream'
(-to eternity!)
Let's drown ourselves in this love
my darling, my only one
(Let's) set sacrifices for this love we are in
- make it forever'
Let's drown ourselves in this love
Let's give our lives for this love we are in
(we'll) do it together'

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED, words: Lopakka]

Now everything
that used to matter to me
is taken away
forever gone
The only things
I really have left here
'in this life
are bitter hate and this gun
From this trip I'm taking now
I'm never coming back'
It's time, tonight's the night
-the last one of my life
This time I'll just let myself go
and leave this world behind
The booze flows in
like blood to heart that beats no more
and blows the flame of fear out'
I raise the gun
- my finger on the trigger -
and put the barrel into my mouth
From this trip I'm taking now
I'm never coming back'
It's time, tonight's the night
-the last one of my life
This time I'll just let myself go
and leave this world behind
It's here, tonight's the night
-the last one of my life
With no fear I'll just let my life go
and take the six-feet-dive'

[music: Tenkula & SENTENCED]

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You're so f**kin' special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so f**kin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

She's running out again,
She's running out
She's run run run running out...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so f**kin' special
I wish I was special...

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't belong here.

It would be wrong to ask you why
Because I know what goes inside
Is only half of what come out
Isn't that what it's about?
To remind us we're alive
To remind us we're not blind
In that big, black hole
Comfortable
Digging the grave, I got it made
Let something in or throw something out?
You left the door open wide
I know you have a reason why
That knot is better left untied
I just went and undid mine
It takes some time
And the shadows so big
It takes the sun out of the day
And the feeling goes away
if you close the door
Comfortable
And it's out of this world
Comfortable

You say you don't wanna run and hide
A face that no-one knows
And everyone ya meet, you're gonna show
You're nobody's slave, nobody's chains are holdin' you
You hold your fist up high,
And rule the zoo

Oh, you just got to be
Up high where the whole world's watchin me
Cause I, I got the guts to be somebody......to cry out

I wanna be somebody,
Be somebody soon
I wanna be somebody
Be somebody too

You say you don't wanna starve
Or take the table crumbs that fall
You don't wanna beg or plead at all
You don't want no nine to five
Your fingers to the bone
You don't want the rock piles' bloody stones

Oh, you just got to be
Up high where the whole world's watchin me
Cause I, I got the guts to be somebody.....to cry out

I wanna be somebody,
Be somebody soon
I wanna be somebody
Be somebody too

I want shiny cars and dirty money
Lotsa rock and roll
I will live in fame and die in flames
I'm never gettin' old

I wanna be somebody,
Be somebody soon
I wanna be somebody
Be somebody too

I'm gonna be somebody,
I'm gonna be somebody

There is a house in New Orleans,
They call the "Rising Sun",
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
And God, I know, I'm one.

My mother was a tailor,
She sewed those new blue jeans,
my father he's a gambling man,
drinks down in New Orleans.

Now the only thing a gambler needs,
Is a suitcase and a drink,
The only time, you keep him satisfied, is when
He's all drunk.


Oh, mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done -
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of Rising Sun

One foot on the platform,
The other's on the train,
I'm going back to New Orleans,
to wear that ball and chain.

Yes there is a house in New Orleans
they call "the rising sun"
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
And God, I know, I'm one.
