Track Lyrics

Burning Angel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dark shadows from above
Ravens fly, obliterate the sun
It's a sign of the devil
He will come for his servant tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies
[Chorus]
Am I to burn?
I have not sinned
Burnt at the stake
Innocent blood that can never be washed clean
[Verse 2]
The flames of ignorance
Grow higher and higher
Licking my flesh, burning my soul
The raven laughing in the moon
[Pre-Chorus]
These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies again
[Chorus]
Am I to burn?
I have not sinned
Burnt at the stake
Innocent blood that can never be washed clean
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Am I to burn?
I have not sinned
Burnt at the stake
Innocent blood that can never be washed clean

Heart of Darkness Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You can't kill me, I am livin' inside you
I am a part of your existence
Twisted thoughts in a twisted mind
Provoking you
Black is my heart, dark is my soul
My hatred I can not control
Evil seed growing stronger
Your free will
Dying
Dying
[Chorus]
Inside you
Heart of darkness
A part of you
Heart of darkness
[Verse 2]
To deny me, is to deny yourself
The illusion is dissolved
You are no longer in control
The façade crumbles
The transition is complete
The transition is complete
[Chorus]
Inside you
Heart of darkness
A part of you
Heart of darkness
[Post-Chorus]
I come to you in the night
I am your dark sub-conscience
I keep you awake, knowing
I am the heart of darkness
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Inside you
Heart of darkness
A part of you
Heart of darkness
[Post-Chorus]
I come to you in the night
I am your dark sub-conscience
I keep you awake, knowing
I am the heart
Heart of darkness

Behind the Smile Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sands of time
Running through my fingers
My life is slipping away
And I feel nothing
Swallow the tears
Eat the pain
It's worth the degradation
Eat the pain
[Chorus]
Behind the smile (The smile)
I feel nothing (Nothing)
I reach out to touch (To touch)
But I'm not really there
[Verse 2]
This reflection in the mirror
Can it really be me?
I see no connection with who
I wanted to be
Drink another glass
Swallow these pills
At the end of the rainbow
You take the bitter
The bitter with the sweet
[Chorus]
Behind the smile (The smile)
I feel nothing (Nothing)
I reach out to touch (To touch)
But I'm not really there
[Bridge]
When love dies
The angels cry
Here I am
Alone (Alone)
Alone in a crowd
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Behind the smile
I feel nothing
I reach out to touch
But I'm not really there
[Chorus]
Behind the smile (The smile)
I feel nothing (Nothing)
I reach out to touch (To touch)
But I'm not really there
