Fragile

Sentenced - Page 2 B

So many times I have brought you down
that I have already lost all count
and I seem to be doing it again
No matter how hard I have tried
I have crumbled time after time
and kept failing in the end

Sometimes it feels it would be better for you all
If I ceased to exist or was never born at all

So many times I have let you down
shadowed the shine of our sun
and drowned you in tears and misery
that it is hard for me to see
how you can after all these years
still be standing by me

Sometimes it feels it would be better for us all
If I ceased to exist or was never born at all
Sometimes it feels it would be easier to fall
than to flutter in the air with these wings so weak and torn

Funeral Spring

Sentenced - Page 2 B

so came the spring, came the light
and gave farewell to the wintery ice
now all is gone, this is the end.
this snow in May reminds me...

funeral... funeral time again... funeral

so came the Winter and the Summertimes
forever gone as all love for live
blank the shroud upon the ground
the shadows cast so pale...

Funeral Spring is now
I watch you bury me down
funeral time again
longing to fly...

Funeral Spring is real
white as the ghostly veil on the ground
funeral time again
someone has died again
funeral time is now
and you bury me down below
funeral time again
I'm longing...to fly...again...

Grave Sweet Grave

Sentenced - Page 2 B

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)

Home In Despair

Sentenced - Page 2 B

Again the sky has fallen down on me
Once more a world has crumbled down and over me

And yet in some twisted way
I enjoy my misery
And in some strange way
I have grown together with my agony

I feel home in despair for I dwell in grief
and I feel home when the air's too thick to breathe
and I feel home anywhere human lives are going down the drain

For as long as I remember life has been hard
I guess they have "misery" written somewhere in my stars

For I have mourned for so damn long…
that I've forgotten what it was for
Everything has gone so wrong
that I really couldn't think of anything more

I feel home in despair for I dwell in grief
and I feel home when the air's too thick to breathe
and I feel home anywhere human lives are flowing down the drain

I feel home in despair for I dwell in grief
and I feel home when the air's too thick to breathe
and I feel home anywhere the light of day is drowned in heavy rain

Yet I know the worst is still to come

I'll Throw The First Rock

Sentenced - Page 2 B

I could hear them speaking of those
"Good Old Days" that never were
Those hollow containers for souls
who no longer live there...

It dwells in my heart, the eternal hate
To get your share just wait (and see)

There are no strangers in this world
only bastards I haven't met
...and my skeptic way of thinking
turns away the joys they shed

It dwells in my heart, the eternal rage
And now I'll blast it on your face!

I'll throw the First Rock
- Blacken your world and your sun

I'll throw the First Rock
I'll throw the first one
You'll crumble to the ground
As I throw the rock that brings you

down

In Memoriam

Sentenced - Page 2 B

In the dark... in death
Eyes can't see... I cannot feel
No voices... no light... no existence
A dreamlike void surrounds me

silence ... emptiness ... peace of mind ... in death

In emptiness...
I focus my thoughts on my life
In death I have the time to think of the past

verses I & II

Solitude...
won't break my peace of mind
Because here I must dwell eternally

In memoriam...
For the one that once was me
Entombed remains
A gravestone marks I've passed away...
(Sacred... to the memory of myself)

Keep My Grave Open

Sentenced - Page 2 B

(Hunt or be hunted)

The days are hot
and the dead lie unburied on the field
So the wind brings the smell of blood;
- so heavy and sweet

They're back again
- we came so near and yet so far
They're all around
and if they come any closer...
We're done

Keep My Grave Open, open wide
Keep My Grave Open, I'm longing to die
- Cool and peaceful, and far from the battlefields
...and opened just for me

The moon shuts her eyes
and great black clouds cover the sky
Rain bathes the ground
while we live in darkness like the blind...

Killing Me Killing You

Sentenced - Page 2 B

Baby, have you seen, there is a snake in our paradise
A serpent that's wriggling between us
and freezing our feelings to ice

And with each drop of blood we bleed because of this
something so precious dies and it feels it really is...

Killing Me Killing You
Killing all we have
As our loves wither away

Burning Me Burning You
Burning us to ash
Drowning us in a sea of flames

Darling, do you feel, there is a storm coming our way
The burning light between us is already starting to fade
The fire in our hearts is smothered by the rain
and the crimson flame of passion turns into something gray

And with each drop of blood our shattered hearts ever bleed
something so precious dies and is lost eternally

Killing Me Killing You
Killing all we have
As our loves wither away

Burning Me Burning You
Burning us to ash
Drowning us in a sea of flames

Each teardrop from your eyes
makes something inside me die
Each of these days that draws us part
takes a piece from my heart

Kill me kill me kill me again with your love
and chase the storm away
Bring me bring me bring me the end with your love
and haunt the demons away

Killing Me Killing You
Killing all we have
As our loves wither away

Burning Me Burning You
Burning us to ash
Drowning us in a sea of flames

Kill me kill me kill me again with your love
and chase the snake away
Bring me bring me bring me the end with your love
and haunt the serpent away

LET GO (The Last Chapter)

Sentenced - Page 2 B

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'
