lyrics

This is not your typical story
From here it's gonna get a little gory
And your evil villain's playing the victim collecting the glory

They told such beautiful lies
Oh how we were blinded by the light
They hold us down by their sides
Shadows pose as silhouettes tonight

(chorus)
They say to forgive is to forget
letting loose this noose around my neck
I said in the moment I've set that all I can see is red
Ashes to ashes one day we'll all go down
but this time around your safe and sound

Safe and sound
Just like the ones who said they could never be saved
as they were dragged through hell
cause they will never see but they will always be buried
beneath the ground where I stand underneath my feet
Louder they cry (and now we can hear them say)

Choke on your pride and spit out all of your lies
cause even backstabbers can't leave their house's
without their knifes
My vindictive vendetta makes a beautiful dilemma
Making you wonder wether you should run or just
Surrender

Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die tonight!! (tonight)
and everyone that deserves a treasure silver or gold
Oh we must obey
OH WE MUST OBEY!!!!, oh we must obey

(chorus)
They say to forgive is to forget
letting loose this noose around my neck
I said in the moment I've set that all I can see is red
Ashes to ashes one day we'll all go down
but this time around your safe and sound
keep thinking, keep thinking your safe and sound
but i can't wait till you turn around

And there are no words left for me to say
your silence is so dull and I'm in need of a new mistake
For every phrase you ever left unsaid
is something that meant nothing to you
please don't pretend

(chorus)
They say to forgive is to forget
letting loose this noose around my neck
I said in the moment I've set that all I can see is red
keep thinking, keep thinking your safe and sound
but i can't wait till you turn around

DREAM AS IF YOU'LL LIVE FOREVER!!!!!
