Rolling thunder in distant skies
Shadows of the past
A final glance on familiar faces
Time is running fast

    
Lost and buried in the sand of time
On history’s garbage heap
A million fates – half of a line
Praise the king, save the queen

    
(Embark) to the gates of hell
(We’re caught) in a twilight zone
(Straight into) nothingness
Or the great unknown

    
The wind in Charon’s cloak
Sand... in the hourglass
Tickets with no return
Through time – future and past

    
When souls are flying away
Facing the sun, facing it all alone
When souls are flying away
Cursed and damned
And the lost ones die alone

    
Memories from another time
We’re begging, we’re praying for another day
No more boys and not yet men
Rotting lives and slow decay

    
We’re holding on to our cold brides
Starring – into the dark
Clenching our fists so hard
For the last time, a call to arms

    
When souls are flying away
Facing the sun, facing it all alone
When souls are flying away
Cursed and damned
(And the lost ones die alone)
When souls are flying away
Facing the sun, facing it all alone
When souls are flying away
Cursed and damned
And the lost ones die alone

    
We’re holding on to our cold brides
Starring – into the dark
Clenching our fists so hard
For the last time, a call to arms

    
When souls are flying away
Facing the sun, facing it all alone
When souls are flying away
Cursed and damned
And the lost ones die alone
When souls are flying away
Facing the sun, facing it all alone
When souls are flying away
Cursed and damned
And the lost ones die alone

    
Who told us about the angels?
The lie that they’re always kind
See their joy when they gamble
Feeding on screams and pain...
