RIFFTERA LYRICS

1. Back To Life


Scream inside my head goes unnoticed
But don't you tread on my rights
Despite the lack of vital signs
Dark - too dark to see all around me
They know I'm lost but not alone
Straying in the deep unknown

Is there anyone to save me from what I've become?
And then the silence... silence seems so loud

To fight another day
They say:"wait for the sign - don't worry"
Red swallows the sky
Voice drifting away
In the end
I give all for the glory
Bring me back to life

Beast under your bed breaks the silence
Now who do you pray when
Things go wrong?
When there's a devil at your door
Hard - too hard
To breath - empty infinity
There is no escape
No place to hide
No one
Fighting on your side

Hear me begging for
See me crawling for
And then the silence...
Silence seems so loud

No one hears me
No one sees me
And then the silence... seems so loud


2. One Step Closer


Hunger never ending painfully blurs the mind
Drives us into the corner
Far beyond the line
Strangers in the reflection stare back at us
Dead eyes observe herd of the blind

Jigsaw to resolve everything we try
With unrelenting power we make it right
In the search of perfection it's all or nothing
Chains of madness us together binds

One step closer of the peak we are
One step closer
We've come so far
It seems so beautiful as we reach for the stars

One step closer of
The edge we are
One step closer
We've come so far
And then we realise we weren't close after all

One step closer of the edge we are


3. Lightbringer


Each and every day of your life
The same old feeling comes alive
This is it again
This is for the past
This is the one that slips through your grasp
You would tear off the wings of an angel to keep it close
But you would still feel alone

It slips away through your fingers
Throws you down into the void

So it seems that you never learn
To the point of no return
You search for flaws
You search for something
You search for reason
And then there's nothing
You would tear off the heart of an angel to feel the warm
But you would still be in cold

And the pain remains to walk with you forever
In the dark
It hurts your

Eyes - to see the light for the first time of your life
But it's just passing by
Soon it will fade to the night
It hurts your eyes - to see the light for the last time of
Your life
So crawl back to your hide
And let the black arrive

So it seems you never meant to be
You never meant to feel
Farewell to lightbringer
Hope you enjoyed the time
Now it's too late to cry

You lose the battle without a fight
Giving up - too tired to try
Oh, the beautiful light
It hurts your


4. Ashes Fall


The weight crushes me
Thousands above
Thousands below
Weak mind repeats
Cant wash away the blood stains

The one true hero
Self-loathing
Shattered soul
Born again below
How it came to this?

The condemned speaks when words help no more
The first one to know the end of it all

So dry your tears my love
With the fire that burns my souls
Float away with the wind
When ashes fall
I let you go

Can't find forgiveness
Lost to the ages of unknown
Once proudly blessed
Now desolated

The fire burns my soul
With the wind I let you go


5. Rotten To The Core


How would this time be any different?
Haven't we learned before?
How would this one make any difference?
You know one
You know 'em all
Trust when I say they can't be trusted
Same plot repeats time
After time
Image of dreams will start to wither
Word after word
Lie after lie

One hand points to peace
While the other one strangles

Each of them promising the moon and the stars
Telling they're the one
One by one these words are forgotten
And their hearts are rotten to the core

For how long are you gonna keep on pretending
That it doesn't matter?
Just how far does it have to go until heads will roll?
Eventually we reach the breaking point
And one falls
Another one rises

Each of them promising the moon and the stars
Telling they're the one
One by one these words are forgotten and their hearts they're
Rotten to the core
Watch their hearts rot away

I tell you what: they're all rotten to the core


6. Open Wounds


With our own blood we built
The hollow system that enslaves our brothers
Now as the blood runs out
We deny the truth while they
Rape our mother earth
Watch her burn
Our mother

Earth quakes
Earth burns
As the infrastructure gets torn to pieces
Treacherous words spoken by mouths of them
That spread diseases
The sickness spreads
Trail of blood runs

Now - as the society convulses and you poor the salt
Into to the open wounds
Right into the open wounds
Now - you hear the death battle
But you trust that the devil in a suit tells you the truth
The one that you choose

Harder and harder
Each day it gets farther away
We've lost the grip
It's slipping away

The fallen ones repeat the words
Sit tight come hell or high water
As the house of cards collapses
Twisted travesty ends in slaughter

Now - the time is running out while you play dead
And come up with 99 reasons why the sun orbits the earth
You never learn
Now - as the society has deceased
You still poor the salt into the open wounds
Right into the open wounds


7. The Ruins Of The Empire


Do you still believe in miracles?
Do you still believe that justice
Prevails?
Wake up!
Do you still believe in fairy tales?
No one was innocent
No one can say that they did what they could
They were all just looking the other way

We should've seen it coming
We should've feared the worst
We were brought down burning
Now dust covers the halls of broken dreams

The ruins of the empire

You can't deceive yourself that much
You can't be naive enough to believe that we achieved anything
No one paid attention
Now no one dares to mention:"we should have known"
They were all just looking the other way

Our empire turned to ashes
Our empire turned to dust
Our empire turned to ashes
And dust covers the halls of broken dreams


8. Pitch Black


Through the darkness
I learned how to dream
Through the stone
I learned how to bleed
I am an empty shell
Born and raised in living hell
I'm pitch black on the inside

Black rain soaks the ground
Paints the world with death
And sound of a heartbeat fades away
From day to day
I try to cover my footsteps
Leave the past behind
All my life I was turning a blind eye
And now I've lost my sight

How all the dreams seem now so bittersweet
They were buried alive

I would give everything that I hold within for a touch of lost colors
I'm on my knees and the whole world weeps with me
Long gone are memories
All those melodies are starting to fade
No place to run
Under the pitch black sun

Through the pain
I learned how to fear
Slave of the scars
Through all these years
I turned my skin upside down
Spilled my guts all around
I'm pitch black on the inside

Hate - all this hate that I gathered
Mind over matter
I curse you and I curse myself
All the guilty and the innocent
Each day I'm stronger
But each day the weight on my shoulders grows
And I know nothing lasts forever
