Part II - Burden of Shame
How could this happen?
Of what have we done?
Will our tears ever pay for our sin?
Mother forgive us
We need all your love
To fight and to carry
The burden of shame
(The branding)
Hereby we swear
For as long as we live
We will not soil our name
The truth made of iron
Will seal it with pain
Until death our secret remains
Until death our love remains
And in death our love re-framed
Part III - The Journey
A minute away but worlds/oceans apart
Brothers in blood now divided in heart
By grief and sorrow one is striving
To repay
Behind the palisade he lives his destined life
The music and the tears are piercing
Through the walls
Turn to nightmare and there is no escape at all
Oh joyful childhood you died so young...
Every child follows blind
On the journey we call life
Learning everyday
(Learning with every step)
Given love or given hate
Determines everybody's fate in life
Be careful what you give...
A stranger to love and affection
On the run
In search of shelter in the solitude of sin
A drifter in the dark a soldier
Of the pain
A constant slave under the belt of misery
Oh joyful childhood you died so young...
Every child follows blind
On the journey we call life
Learning everyday
(Learning with every step)
Given love or given hate
Determines everybody's fate in life
Be careful what you give...
