Apocalyptica

Bittersweet

I’m giving up the ghost of love
And a shadow is cast on devotion.

She’s the one that I adore
Qween of my silent suffocation.

Break this bittersweet spell on me,
Lost in the arms of destiny.

Bittersweet.

I won’t give up; I’m possessed by her.

I’m bearing a cross; she turned into my curse.

Break this bittersweet spell on me,
Lost in the arms of destiny,
Bittersweet, I want you (how I wanted you)
And I need you ( how I needed you)

Break this bittersweet spell on me,
Lost in the arms of destiny.
Break this bittersweet spell on me,
Lost in the arms of destiny.

Bittersweet.

En Vie

Pourquoi faire autant d’histoires ?
Pour des lendemains qui chantent faux
Pourquoi poser tant de questions ?
Faut-il que l’on soit aussi cons
Ne suffirait-il pas de se voir ?
Un peu plus un peu moins mal
Ne suffirait-il pas de vouloir ?
And the world all gone to war

Réduisons nos peines
Achevons nous pour le plaisir
Distillons nos haines
Et buvons à nos souvenir
Buvons pour ne plus mentir
Achevons nous pour le plaisir

Et si un jour, tout refleurit
Que par amour, on reste en vie

Pourquoi laisser faire le hasard
Quand nos rêves perdent le mémoire ?
Faut-il que l’on soit aussi bête ?
C’est l’histoire qui se répète
Ne suffirait-il pas de se voir ?
un peu plus un peu moins mal
Ne suffirait-il pas de vouloir ?
and this world all gone to war

Réduisons nos peines
Achevons nous pour le plaisir
Distillons nos haines
Et buvons à nos souvenirs
Réduisons nos peines
Achevons nous pour le plaisir
Distillons nos haines
Et buvons pour ne plus se mentir
Buvons à nos souvenirs
Achevons nous pour le plaisir

Far Away

There is something in the way
You're always somewhere else
Feelings have deserted me
To a point of no return
I don't believe in God
But I pray for you

Don't you slip away from me
It's you I live for
Don't you leave no
Don't you slip away from me
I'm vulnerable to your love

There is something in the way
You're always somewhere else
Feelings have deserted me
To a point of no return
So the light fades out
And you're so close to lose it

Don't you slip away from me
It's you I live for
Don't you leave no
Don't you slip away from me
I'm vulnerable to your love

Don't you slip away from me
It's you I live my life for
Don't you slip away from me
I'm vulnerable to your love
Don't you slip away

Faraway Vol. 2

Don't you leave no
Don't you slip away from me
I'm vulnerable to your love

Hope

Hope is beauty,
personified.
At her feet, the world,
hypnotized.

A million flashes,
a million smiles.
And on the catwalk,
she flaunts her style a long mile.

An angry sign of darkness,
our hope lies lost and torn.
All flame like love is fleeting,
when there's no hope anymore.

Pain and glory,
hand in hand,
a sacrifice,
the highest price.

Like the poison in her heart,
like a whisper she was gone,
like when angels fall.

And in this side of darkness,
our hope lies on the floor.
All love like flame is fleeting,
when there's no hope anymore.

Like the poison in her heart,
like a whisper, she was gone,
like an angel... angels fall.

Hope (Volume 2)

Hope is beauty,

at her feet, the world-
hypnotized.

A million flashes,
a million smiles
and on the catwalk
she flaunts her style

But in this heart of darkness
our hope lies lost and torn.
All fame like love is fleeting
when there's no hope anymore.

Pain and glory
hand in hand.
A sacrifice-
the highest price.

Like the poison in her arm,
like a wisper, she was gone,
like when angels fall...

And in this heart of darkness
our hope lies on the floor.
All love like fame is fleeting
when there`s no hope anymore.

Like a poison in her arm,
like a wisper, she was gone,
like an angel.
Angels fall.

How Far

My life is a circle
No beginning and no end
It's always repeating a trail I defend..

A missunderstanding
That can't be erased like a file
I've got all I wanted
But still I'm not satisfied

How far will I go to
And search my respect and my pride
How long will I lie to myself
About the privilege of my life
That turns around 'till I die
And take the dark with me

Why am I sad when I have more than I ever had?

My life is too stable I get no air
My jail is my skin I'm false like a fable
That is being praised for it's sinn

Once I am trying to follow the light
Then the bitch grips my feet
Pulls me down underneath

How far will I go to
And search my respect and my pride
How long will I lie to myself
About the privilege of my life
That turns around 'till I die
And take the dark with me

Life Burns

We break our enemies with fear, and
we've seen how the tears come around
We built our confidence on wasteland
we've seen how the walls come down

Life Burns

a Man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
All things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
We pray it would last

Life Burns

We have no sympathy for the lost souls
we've choosen the path of disgrace
We give this life to our children
and teach them to hate this place


a Man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
All things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
We pray it would last


a man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil


Man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the Reaper

The world lies in the hands of evil

O Fortuna

O Fortuna
velut luna
statu variabilis,
semper crescis
aut decrescis;
vita detestabilis
nunc obdurat
et tunc curat
ludo mentis aciem,
egestatem,
potestatem
dissolvit ut glaciem.

Sors immanis
et inanis,
rota tu volubilis,
status malus,
vana salus
semper dissolubilis,
obumbrata
et velata
michi quoque niteris;
nunc per ludum
dorsum nudum
fero tui sceleris.

Sors salutis
et virtutis
michi nunc contraria,
est affectus
et defectus
semper in angaria.
Hac in hora
sine mora
corde pulsum tangite
quod per sortem
sternit fortem,
mecum omnes plangite

Path (Volume 2)

I want to live in fire
with all the taste i desire
it`s all good if you let me dive
with some sharks on the ground

you loose your routine
you loose your routine
cause i found my path

what the hell are you trying
now i know there is something more
what happened to you
still staying on my path
are you still denying
now i know there is something more
that this is the truth

it`s all in you

what do you came for
what did you expect to find

so boundless i feel
and boundless all my fears
stop running back to old times

you loose your routine...
cause i found my path

Repressed


I travelled the way that you showed me
Left all my sorrow behind
I’m living with rules you once told me
Expecting myself to be fine

So why the fuck am I lonely
There’s no one inside I can call
To give up the fight is a warning
The one day to stand you will fall

I left my sorrow behind
(Você / Precisa / direcção)
Warning not to give up the fight
(Me diga a verdade / Protecção)

Your words that gave me direction
Helped me turn into what I thought I wanted
Fists that gave me protection
Helped me deal with you
So for now our days are through

Nothing left
Nothing rests
Nothing grasp

You declared what your faith is
But you still have the fear
The way you’ve left your life open
Will no bring your destiny here
Do I continue my journey
Confusion is wrapped in my mind
So when your gone with your martyr
You can continue your lies

(Você / Precisa / direcção)
(Me diga a verdade / Protecção)

Your words that gave me direction (Protecção)
Helped me turn into what I thought I wanted (Me diga a verdade)
Fists that gave me protection (Você / Precisa / direcção)
Helped me deal with you (Precisa / Protecao)
So for now our days are through (Me diga a verdade)

I left my sorrow behind
I left my sorrow behind
Warning not to give up the fight
Warning not to give up the fight

You declared what your faith is
But you still have the fear
I will continue my journey
I need your lies nomore

Your words that gave me direction (Protecao)
Helped me turn into what I thought I wanted (Me diga a verdade)
Fists that gave me protection (Você / Precisa / direcção)
Helped me deal with you (Voce / Precisa / Protecao)
So for now our days are through (Me diga a verdade)

(direcção / Protecção)
So for now our days are through
(Me diga a verdade / Direcção / Protecção)
So for now our days are through

Nothing left
Nothing rests
Nothing grasp

Never underrate the man with nothing left inside
Never underrate the man with nothing left inside

Seeman

Komm in mein Boot
ein Sturm kommt auf
und es wird Nacht

Wo willst du hin
so ganz allein
treibst du davon

Wer hält deine Hand
wenn es dich
nach unten zieht

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne
mit Tränen im Gesicht
das Tageslicht fällt auf die Seite
der Herbstwind fegt die Straße leer

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne
hast Tränen im Gesicht
das Abendlicht verjagt die Schatten
die Zeit steht still und es wird Herbst

Komm in mein Boot
die Sehnsucht wird
der Steuermann

Komm in mein Boot
der beste Seemann
war doch ich

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne
hast Tränen im Gesicht
das Feuer nimmst du von der Kerze
die Zeit steht still und es wird Herbst

Seemann

feat. Nina Hagen

Komm in mein Boot,
ein Sturm kommt auf und es wird Nacht.
wo willst du hin?
so ganz allein treibst du davon.
Wer hält deine Hand,
wenn es dich nach unten zieht?

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne,
mit Tränen im Gesicht.
Das Tageslicht fällt auf die Seite,
der Herbstwind fegt die Straße leer.

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne,
mit Tränen im Gesicht.
Das Abendlicht verjagt die Schatten,
die Zeit steht still und es wird Herbst.

Komm in mein Boot,
die Sehnsucht wird der Steuermann.
Komm in mein Boot,
der beste Seemann war doch ich.

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne,
mit Tränen im Gesicht.
Das Feuer nimmst du von der Kerze,
die Zeit steht still und es wird Herbst.

Sie sprachen nur von deiner Mutter,
so gnadenlos ist nur die Nacht.
Am Ende bleib ich doch alleine,
die Zeit steht still und mir ist kalt.

Wie Weit

Mein Leben dreht sich so monoton und still
Und zeichnet dabei einen Kreis
Kreis der Ewigkeit

Ich kann dem Gefühl nicht entgehen
Ich sei ein dauerhafter Gast
Das Gold dieser Welt ist nichts wert
Verbrennt meine Haut

Wie weit muss ich gehen um zu sehen
Dass die Nacht ein Ende sucht
Wie viel muss ich geben um zu fühln?
Bin ich (denn) verflucht?
Will ichs wagen ist es gut
Oder bin ich doch verflucht?

why am i sad...

Mein leben ist einsam
Ich bin zu schwach um aufzustehn
Gestreckt auf dem Boden wie gelähmt
Der Himmel ist zu schwer

Meine eigenen Regeln sind mein Feind
Wie die Trägheit in mir
Und etwas zu ändern ist so schwer
Ein Krieg den ich verlier

Wie weit muss ich gehen um zu sehen
Dass die Nacht ein Ende sucht
Wie viel muss ich geben um zu fühln?
Bin ich (denn) verflucht?
Wie groß ist die Sehnsucht die mich treibt
Verlier ich meinen Ruf
Soll ich mich ergeben oder leben
Das leben nach der Flut

Will ichs wagen ist es gut
Oder bin ich doch verflucht?
