BAPTISED IN FIRE

Sleep tight my child, keep yourself out of cold
Tomorrow will be so hard, a new way to start
Dream deep my child as you ever tried
Forget what your mother said, she always lied

Are you afraid?
Come, be a man to face your fears
Promising's too easy
Nothing is what it seems

Chorus-1:
Move on, move on soldier
Just to be my pawn to play the game
Baptised in fire
Blindness of anger will run in your veins

Let me use your pride, let me abuse your fear
Let me lead you to the end, you're getting near
Dry you bleeding eyes, cover your scars
Wish that you'd been a child, dream of times you smiled

Are you afraid?
Smell the detah, near it seems
Im this battlefield
Noone can hear your screams

Chorus-2:
Move on, move on soldier
Time has finally come to meet your fate
Baptised in fire
See my hands lying over your faith

Chorus-3:
Move on, move on soldier
Why would I care about your dreams?
Baptised in fire
What you need's in your veins

Chorus-4:
Move on, move on soldier
Just to be my pawn to play the game
Baptised in fire
Everyone shall say that you were so brave...

SINNER

Visions rule my mind
My eyes don't see them through
An ache in my heart
Nightmares come true

Voices surround me
Cover my eyes
Memories the enemy
Release my fears

Chorus-1:
Seeking truth, forsaken
No hope will last forever
Reached the unforgiven
Shed tears a vain like a sinner

Mu future chained on
What I had to do
Time tickin' on
Nowhere to move

Who can live in fever?
Who can change the world?
Be a born-deceiver
And it will never hurt

(Chorus-1)
In my isolated cell
I burn my soul
Waiting for the one...

I'll never wait
For absolution
In my longest hate
It's not more than pure illusion

I've been a shadow
I've seen the light
As I tried to reach out
I found, found you inside

Chorus-2:
Seeking truth, forsaken
No hope will last forever
Reached the unforgiven
Felt endless pain

No, take me out, don't fade away
Nowhere to run, nowhere to stay
I only tried to reach the unforgiven
But never chose to be a sinner

Söz - Müzik: Can Şahin


MASS INSANITY

Wake up! Reach for the clock... You're already late
In a few moments, the madness starts over
Jump in your car... Oh, your holy car
Rush to your job... Oh, your holy job

Struggle through every morning
Same faces everyday
They tell you what to do
And you... Obey like a fool!

Chorus:
Mass insanity covers your fake sense
I can't believe you're a part of all this folly
A man who never dreams, sees refuge in others tales
After a while illusions take over

Come on! Tell me your past. Ever regretted?
Scratch the walls of your own prison
Now you're a mess, an ex-hero that's stranded
Is that what you really wnated?

You're way down, down the line
A stranger to your own self
They give you precious carrots
And you... Sell yourself like a whore!

(Chorus)

TIDES

I took so many brave steps
So as to face my sly, darkened past
A past that always betrayed me
And left me alone in winter cold

Lost forever in nothingness
With nothing left to believe in
I better keep my darkness
Where the lights are so deceiving

Chorus:
Can you hear its call?
My soul cries in pain
Betrayed by my time
Again... And again...

So alone, so hard, believe me
Covered by the tides of destiny
Has it all gone wrong, isn't it all the same?
Tell me that I'm the one to blame

So you keep telling me to swallow
My love, my hate, my sorrow
Don't tell me that I've many more to see
All I see is there's nothing to hold on

(Chorus)

Söz: Can Şahin, Utku Teksöz

SONS OF WAR

Life's never gray for us, only black and white
We've nothing to lose as this sour life passes by
Our silence will end soon
You'll pay for all this pain
You'll never see the light again

Chorus - 1:
We have glory in our minds
We're the sons of war
We have pride in our hearts
We're the sons of war
We have fire in our eyes
We're the sons of war
We lost our reason halfway through
We're the sons of war

It wasn't to hard to see, the world pushed us way too far
We play this killing game with our freezing hearts

We're rangers, death angels
Turned into cold machines
Your worthless life we!ll take from you

Chorus - 2:
We have glory in our minds
We're the sons of war
We have pride in our hearts
We're the sons of war
We have fire in our eyes
We're the sons of war
Now the pay-back time has come
We're the sons of war

Chorus - 3:
We have glory in our minds
We're the sons of war
We have pride in our hearts
We're the sons of war
We have fire in our eyes
We're the sons of war
You have no easy way out
We're the sons of war
