When Crows Die (No Strings Attached) (Music / Lyrics by 555) "The synopsis, it's death, and the karma bestowed." Verse 1.1 - [0:43] Hiding behind invisible faith Surrender myself Regret all my actions, a penance, a cure Anguish only exists I've bonded in sin, I’ve fallen from grace Tortured emaciation Burying guilt to live with this flaw, I’ve risked my salvation Chorus 1.1 - [1:26] Watching like guardian angels, Soaring through midnight skies, These shadows of death, Grant me… The wish of a burial’s dream Verse 1.2 - [1:47] Karma's pet, the shadow of night Holding the keys to our lives Never forgetting the sinners nor saints Neglecting the cries (as) we apologize Corvus of death, you follow tonight Staring with demonic eyes Drag me to hell or haunt me for life? I’ve prayed for redemption Chorus 1.2 - [2:30] Watching like guardian angels, Soaring through midnight skies, These shadows of death, Grant me… The wish of a burial’s dream Verse 2.1 - [2:54] Feathered shadow's piercing glares... Reminding me of sins transpired Denying truth, excusing (my) actions I've done no wrong against morality My eyes, they see with pain and terror This demon fills my mind with fear Paranoia, the reaper's tool. Must pray this ends to save me from myself Chorus 2.1 - [3:23] (The) synopsis, it's death... And the karma bestowed Guilting me to madness, But it's my life or it's yours Verse 2.2 - [3:33] Running in the time of need Hiding behind the heart of God, My struggle with faith and apostasy I've danced with the devil for far too long Driven to insanity, Abandoned all my dreams This corvus keeps my guilt displayed It's life must end to set me free. Chorus 2.2 - [4:02] (The) synopsis, it's death... And the karma bestowed Guilting me to madness, But it's my life or it's yours Solo Ed - [4:39] Verse 3.1 - [6:05] “I am he, ruler enthroned Holding grudges, taking souls Herding lives wherever I roam Commanding death, at dusk or dawn I am he, from your burial dreams King of darkness, cloaked in black Foreordained to meet in sorrow Time has come, you will expire” Chorus 3.1 - [6:20] (I’ve) murdered the messenger Karma’s pet is dead. (My) personal apocalypse Anticipate revenge Asphyxiating grip Now life and flesh depart Verse 3.2 - [6:36] “You are he, deceiver of deeds Apathetic, corrupted mind Mastering (your own) disharmony Misanthropic, hateful life You are he, of sinful acts Trying to run from destiny Insolent (towards) humanity Seek redemption from deities” Chorus 3.2 - [6:51] (I’ve) murdered the messenger Karma’s pet is dead. (My) personal apocalypse Anticipate revenge Asphyxiating grip Now life and flesh depart Solo Ed - [7:08] End - [7:39] Black Angels of death Taking the sky Enslaving our time, Torn from this world (Black) Angels of death From the abyss Carry our souls As written in lore
