While cutting their shadows
Kill them into the dark trough
Black is all the way
Furious never-ending darkness show
Only way could be hard
In their small and human nation
I kill the first man, getting by death
We are god, through death
Go, get up, victims that died
Waiting for death, I should cry
Take the farther off to cut your means
Listening up for afraid by means
They showed laughing me for my heart
So they wake up these scythes, following me
Cold wind blow out, now to go
Let it go again with the scythes
Something wild
It's got the light, blow it out within you
Never let the best shot come from fucking avalon, that's the one
Time to feel my spirit, I gathered my souls
Beat my night to kill them into my sin (Doom, get up!)
We'll go, get up, victims that died
Waiting for death, I should cry
I can't wait to for my heart
I can't get up, shadows down (Can't get up!)
Set them along, time is right, far too along
They wake me up (Wake me up!)
