Inside your walls, the world is turning without you what happens here, happened quietly but still we gave our consent to Swan song of intelligence, deceptive future is here about to stay Sudden out of nothing we are lost Intelligence not longer used, let us see today‘s abused common sense out of control fall into a hole We welcomed it, resistance small, the assent was the wrong side call We welcomed it, we invited it all, you assent your own identity to fall Education is on the loose, dictatorship is about to rise tell the stupid they are cool and they will start leading fool‘s influence and steady feed, with things nobody needs One world — and another for the rich One love — and a lobby for the supreme How can we involve, when commercial puppets are in charge How can busybodies educate discrimination, armagendon in a hipster world We welcomed it, resistance small, the assent was the wrong side call We welcomed it, we invited it all, you assent your own identity to fall Pick up the right shards and put them together Into a thinking world, that learns from all of those pieces And withstand, the promised salvation, desire for the lost Disgusting liars, for own reputation, so don‘t give up and fight We welcomed it, resistance small, the assent was the wrong side call We welcomed it, we invited it all, you assent your own identity to fall Sometimes the few have the righteous view Oh dear, when did it all start We were so careless, we have to take it back, The Assent

Almost a requiem the things I did and tried for you like friendly fire, burned my soul, just a shadow walk for you You did not see, the diamond shine from me Blindfolded eyes, nothing left for you to see Almost a Requiem the time, I lived here just for you A servants life, graceful death, only irony of fate for you You let me fall with your cold blooded heart Leaving a pile of broken glass behind You let me fall I don‘t understand you, the way how you feel Thoughtless and shameless the warmth is not real Remorse is a word without meaning to you it‘s time to remind, the things I am through Here I am, to erase Almost a Requiem the life, I spent and lost for you like sands of time, falling down, into a maze with senses of guilt You did not see, the offerings from me cold blooded mind, nothings left for you to feel You let me fall with your cold blooded heart Leaving a pile of broken glass behind You let me fall I don‘t understand you, the way how you feel Thoughtless and shameless the warmth is not real Remorse is a word without meaning to you it‘s time to remind, the things I am through Here I am, to erase Last goodbye for a so called friend, relationship was a social dead end, farewell. You let me fall I don‘t understand you, the way how you feel Thoughtless and shameless the warmth is not real Remorse is a word without meaning to you it‘s time to remind, the things I am through Here I am, to erase

Who is that body? Is she dead? On the road Who pulled the trigger? It was me Down the road It was me Down the road Who killed Liz Sorrow? Who killed Elizabeth? It was me Down the road Broken, betrayed, I followed my deadline Vengeance and suffer walking side by side Who saw Liz Sorrow? Who saw me killing? it was him, it was him Down the road just beside, where her body hits the ground he witnessed me with his eyes looking down From the side of the road, through the bushes through the wind with white blind eyes, he heard the sound of death Silent beggar watch me now, every step I try to do when I see him on the street, I have to pay the toll of sins He sees the mad man crawling, with no destinations end Silent beggar is in my mind, 'til the guilty takes my hand He is watching me, bearing my secret deep inside of him He‘s the ferryman for the toll from every guilty darkened soul sitting there and begging for my crimes and sins Judgement, indictment, my fate is in one hand he‘s laughing in his corner and waiting for my end Silent beggar watch me now, every step I try to do when I see him on the street, I have to pay the toll of sins He sees the mad man crawling, with no destinations end Silent beggar is in my mind, 'til the guilty takes my hand On the streets, just beside, where our life is taking place they sitting there, on the coldly dirty ground Bribery coins, in their hands, all the people pay the price for all their sins, to the judges of the street Silent beggar watch me now, every step I try to do when I see him on the street, I have to pay the toll of sins He sees the mad man crawling, with no destinations end Silent beggar is in my mind, 'til the guilty takes my hand Silent beggar watch me now

It hurts, like a non-healing wound But hidden deep within I cannot stand reality any longer Don‘t want to be sad and care about human disabilities So I have to stop to think, to be happy again Low-rate-IQ-happiness So goodbye dear thoughts, I have to quit Farewell my beloved mind Confess, society is in regress in the firm grip of conditioning we influence stupidity, tranquility Sometimes I wish I can‘t think cannot read between the lines I wish I were, unable to fare It hurts, like burning sparks I close my eyes, I cannot breath It hurts, inside my head, too many times that I give up Farewell my beloved mind I know it hurts, but it‘s time to go Goodbye dear life of thoughts, welcome cold empty world And now, no bad things outside the door In the bossom of insignificance, our deficits exist no more It‘s time to laugh, spent applause, clap my hands to useless crap, I wish I had, nothing to care It hurts, like burning sparks I close my eyes, I cannot breath It hurts, inside my head, too many times that I give up Farewell my beloved mind I know it hurts, but it‘s time to go Goodbye dear life of thoughts, welcome cold empty world Now I‘m free, no doubtful minds, just follow fakes in a thoughtless world I just want, my importance low, that‘s no more worth, than a TV show. It hurts, like burning sparks I close my eyes, I cannot breath It hurts, inside my head, too many times that I give up Farewell my beloved mind I know it hurts, but it‘s time to go Goodbye dear life of thoughts, welcome cold empty world Now I‘m free, no doubtful minds, just follow fakes in a thoughtless world I just want, no importance high, no more worth and so I‘m not afraid to die.

We came, we saw, we lost the sighting of it all It was first a local rumour, then the people began to acting strange On the street and the whole township like robots remote controlled from far The morning was so quiet First cases right at noon Then the rumours became facts, the night brought all hell here It‘s in the water and it is in our blood It‘s in your eyes the threat crawls deep under the skin We‘ve never gave and ever reign here over all but in the end every kingdom has to fall We came, we reigned, we leave the stage now to the next Just a smile of despair will last, the world is free from us The insight came too late, impurity removes, that‘s what you get for arrogant mood No prayers in the dark, excuse the sins we did, to give a liar a second chance It went faster than it came here and the people took again control Fight for rights and territories, like nothing has ever happened here The sore is back again and no one reads the signs like a child who never learned, so what get we be here. It‘s in the water and in every single pore It‘s everywhere where people are or ever been We are the virus no one ever can deny and in the end our kingdom has to die We came, we saw, we lost the sighting of it all With a smile of despair we go, the human kingdom fall We came, we reigned, we leave the stage now to the next Just a smile of despair will last, the world is free from us We came, we saw, we lost the sighting of it all With a smile of despair we go, the human kingdom fall

There is a new face living, in our placid town, move in overnight wants to teach us modern style, for a taste of life, or what they think this is There is a new face living, just beside next door, seducer of our sense everything you like is now, 'bout to disappear Follow me, not for real, make the righteous deal, follow me, a whisper in, my head silently. Future endeavours are hardly to handle without understanding the meaning behind Just feeling blindfolded, follow the leaders without explanation what is in it for me Time, is running away much too fast, left you behind in the dark so crime, appear in the streets everywhere, there‘s no way that leading you back on your trail There is a new face living, in our modern town, always in our minds a filter for our usual life, want us to retreat, into a fake new world There is a new face living, just beside next door, snatcher of the sense takes the thinking out of us and penetrates our head Follow me beyond the screen, shut the world out where you‘ve been follow me a whisper in, my head silently Future endeavours are hardly to handle without understanding the meaning behind Just feeling blindfolded, follow the leaders without explanation what is in it for me Time, is running away much too fast, left you behind in the dark so crime, appear in the streets everywhere, there‘s no way that leading you back on your — Time, is running away much too fast, left you behind in the dark so crime, appear in the streets everywhere, there‘s no way that leading you back on your trail.

Now I Know 04:45
Now I know what should be clear about our poor mankind All the things we tried for peace, now I know, it doesn‘t work. Nothing ever reached our mind, that could change the way to live Warcry, genocide, predatory is alright You are weighed in safetiness, going down piece by piece Every generation call their children our hope but when they start to growing up they‘re as dangerous as the old The only way to cut this shit must happen in our head, no rule will ever change the stupid and the mad Now I know, it‘s in our nature, impossible to cure, we have to taking rid of us I know we are infection, the environmental wretched, we try to fight ourselves, now I know we lost, before we start the game Why we want diversity, when we‘re born to kill ourselves Black, white, asian guys everyone will pay the price For a hand of golden coins we will piss on everyone Every generation starts a new campaign for earth, but each time they fail on the enemy within Now I know, it‘s in our nature, impossible to cure, we have to taking rid of us I know we are infection, the environmental wretched, we try to fight ourselves, now I know we lost, before we start the game Days are gone when we hopefully plan our future Greed and pride we turned our home into a graveyard Heavenly abused we took the earth, for god, for us, for any leader Legally approved we raped the earth for nothing else than our endeavours Who goes there my shadow of misery (Ghost walk shadow, on a dreary meadow) We know it, but try to keep ourselves alive Take your gun, the very last time (and do what we do, do what we do) What we always do Now I know, it‘s in our nature, impossible to cure, we have to taking rid of us I know we are infection, the environmental wretched, we try to fight ourselves, for a world we never lived with, never understood, where peace is just a stalking horse I know, I know, I know .... we have to step back

When I‘m dead, is there anyone who cries? When I‘m dead, is there nothing instead? Since the day we were born, we‘re afraid to die our whole life becomes a tug of war, about the reason why We prolong life in fear that we might miss it and during the efforts we missed it And forget all the things, we have here, in our hearts So let‘s live our lifes, here and now, on this earth Don‘t praise me, when I‘m lying in my grave When I am dead, everything is already said I miss her smile, I miss his laugh miss her hands, miss his strength, her way to walk Why don‘t you tell us, all these things just right now When I am dead, I cannot hear when I am dead, I feel no fear When I‘m dead, is there anyone who cries? When I‘m dead, is there nothing instead? I need you now, when I‘m alive. I need you here, side by side Until we‘re dying, hold your flame, hold your flame let it burn in every shade, let it shine, in our eyes Until we‘re dying, hold your flame, hold your flame let your life be a fulfilled one, never bow before your fears Why we dream, why we try, why we feel, why we cry? Why we dream to reincarnate, when this life is not, worth to be? Why we try growing older and older, when dreams of death, sit on our shoulder? Fiery whispers in the wall, talking 'bout the reaper‘s call possibilities of life after death in your gods hall, where humans fall we try to make ourselves believe there would be something but instead nothing there at all. Nothing at all, so breath .... What would you really choose if you could do ninety years of fear the death, or sixty full of joy. I miss his words, I miss her warmth miss his mood, when he was sad, her way to walk Why flowing warm words just in our graves? When I‘m dead, I cannot feel, when I‘m dead, I cannot hear When I‘m dead, is there anyone who cries? When I‘m dead, is there nothing instead? I need this warmth, when I‘m alive, I need it here, before I die Until we‘re dying, hold your flame, hold your flame let it burn in every shade, let it shine, in our eyes Until we‘re dying, hold your flame, hold your flame let your life be a fulfilled one, never bow before your fears Now I‘m dead, my grave is quiet Now I‘m dead, no lights on fire Now I‘m dead, I‘m really gone remember me, I am your haunting ghost

about

Edge Of Ever's third studio album recorded, mixed and mastered at Music Art Lab Studios by George Tsantilas. "High energy progressive melodic metal" meet lyrics taking a critical look at the ways in which society is happily consenting to give up their own critical thoughts.
Let them tell you stories about what all the Silent Beggars sitting quietly on the streets could tell or about humankind facing extinction through something that lives in the water and other great songs.
