lyrics

How many more times must I shake my bells
And kiss the sad face of a fool?
How many arrows must fly in vain
With desperate purpose, so cruel?

We’re gonna wear out our souls in restless schemes
Gonna break through the bars of our jails
Gonna find out the source of our dreams
That everyone weeps to adore

But some never found their idols
Even though they prayed
Doomed artists are branded
With insults and hammers of rage!

With one hope remaining, in the capital of Hades
The loneliest answer, the dark citadel of shades
Death!
A new sun rising
Death!
To rise and give
Warmth!
To wasted flowers
Warming the wasted flowers, Death is soaring now!
Warming the wasted flowers, Death is letting them live!
