Go!

The dream stealer comes at night
Sneaks into our minds so deep
Silent, sly, and out of sight
A mental parasite
Takes the hopes we hold so dear
Corrupts our hearts with doubts and fear
Makes us question all we know
Fills our minds with sorrow's flow

Dream stealer knows our thoughts
Turns them into twisted knots
Takes the light that shines within
Leaves us lost in shadows dim

Dream stealer
It creeps and crawls
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls

It whispers lies into our minds
And twists the truth 'til we are blind

It tells us we are not enough
Makes us feel like we are stuck
Steals the passion that we crave
Fills our souls with empty graves

Dream stealer knows our thoughts
Turns them into twisted knots
Takes the light that shines within
Leaves us lost in shadows dim

Dream stealer
It creeps and crawls
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls
Dream stealer
With twisted claws
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls

It whispers lies into our minds
And twists the truth 'til we are blind
It creeps and crawls
A shadow self that always calls

The Dream stealer knows our thoughts
Turns them into twisted knots
Takes the light that shines within
Leaves us lost in shadows dim

Dream stealer
It creeps and crawls
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls
(Dream stealer)
It whispers lies into our minds
And twists the truth 'til we are blind
(Dream stealer)
A shadow self that constantly calls
				

Dark reflections, so deceptive
Can't bear another day in this nightmare realm
Storm clouds gather around
Hopeless grief in a savage existence

Inner strength, we call on thee
Illuminate the path

No, we won't go
We won't turn our tails and run
When the world has turned its back on us, we
We carry on
No, we won't go
Winds of fate will pave the road
We choose to live, we choose to stay
We stand together, come what may
And live to fight another day

With every step, with every breath
Won't surrender till the battle is won
Battered and torn, our work is done
Deep within, that spark still burns

Inner strength, we call on thee
Illuminate the path

No, we won't go
We won't turn our tails and run
When the world has turned its back on us, we
We carry on
No, we won't go
Winds of fate will pave the road
We choose to live, we choose to stay
We stand together, come what may
And live to fight another day

We choose to live, we choose to stay
We stand together, come what may
We face our fears with open arms
And live to brave tomorrow's dawn
Live to fight another day
				

In realms obscure, forever underground
We see the world with different eyes
Hell-bound to this heretic sound
Never give up - no compromise

To endure, to persist
Then rise above to exist
Every setback a motivation
A crucible for our creation

This, this is our song
The March of the Miscreants!
All hail the spirit of the underdog!
This is where we belong
The March of the Miscreants!
All hail the spirit of the underdog!

Can't be bought, can't be sold
It runs too deep, it's in our souls
A driving force, an inner flame
Throw off your mental chains

To endure, to persist
Then rise above to exist
Every setback a motivation
A crucible for our creation

This, this is our song
The March of the Miscreants!
All hail the spirit of the underdog!
This is where we belong
The March of the Miscreants!
All hail the spirit of the underdog!

Our time has come, and it is now
Will you take a stand or bend your knee and bow?
Onwards and upwards
Feel the heat, no retreat
Unbowed, unswayed
Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat

From the shadows, we shall ascend
Triumphant, triumphant and free

To endure, to persist
Then rise above to exist
Every setback a motivation
A crucible for our creation

This, this is our song
The March of the Miscreants!
All hail the spirit of the underdog!
This is where we belong
The March of the Miscreants!
All hail the spirit of the underdog!
				

Vast expanse of endless space
A speck of dust, a fleeting trace
I stand upon this Earthly sphere
A tiny soul, a mere veneer

Beneath the canopy of night
A universe aglow with light, tonight

Countless stars, a million suns
A cosmic dance of endless grace
Telling tales of yesteryears, my fears I face
As I, a human, find my place

Amidst the grandeur of it all
I feel so small, so very small
A fleeting moment lost in time
A fragile ember in the rhyme

Beneath the canopy of night
A universe aglow with light, tonight

Countless stars, a million suns
A cosmic dance of endless grace
Telling tales of yesteryears, my fears I face
As I, a human, find my place

Countless stars, a million suns
A cosmic dance of endless grace
Telling tales of yesteryears, my fears I face
As I, a human, find my place
				

Piercing thorns of venom
Grow in the minds of the weak
Mother nature gave us
Lips to conceal our teeth

Not wind, nor hail, nor thunder
Will hinder the tall poppy's climb
From the ashes, rise up
Reach out for that speck of sky

Listen
You'll hear your name
Praise echoes as disdain

Stand your ground
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Because the nail that sticks up gets hammered down
Stand your ground
No one is a prophet in their hometown
Never look down

As the sickle dances
To decapitate the queen
It's such a sick romance that
Blades of grass can cut so deep

Time for harvest, pay the piper
A crescent moon to turn the tide
As the song of insects
Grinds away the still of night

Listen
They call your name
Praise echoes as disdain

Stand your ground
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Because the nail that sticks up gets hammered down
Stand your ground
No one is a prophet in their hometown
Never look down

Oh
Oh, off with her head
Such a succubus needs to be bled
Off with her head
Don't look down
Don't look down
Stand your ground
				

[Instrumental]
				

Cracks in the ice below our feet
Our own worst enemy on all fronts
A strategy of self-deceit?
A hornets nest, about to be released

Greedy teeth, they are glistening
Ears sown shut, we're not listening
Tomorrow's promised to no one
Our silence – deafening

The tolling of the bell
Man-made destiny
On a joyride to hell
Our legacy – a blood dynasty

Playing dumb, deaf and blind
A redeemer that never came
The ticking of the doomsday clock...
We're running out of time

The extinction of mankind foretold
By our own hands, so brazen and cold
The final knell, a mournful sound
Echoes through the sky

The tolling of the bell
Man-made destiny
On a joyride to hell
Our legacy – a blood dynasty

The extinction of mankind foretold
By our own hands, so brazen and cold
The final knell, a mournful sound
Echoes through the sky
A blood dynasty

The tolling of the bell
Man-made destiny
On a joyride to hell
Our legacy – a blood dynasty

Our legacy – a blood dynasty
				

See no, hear no
Speak no evil
We are each our own devil
And we make this world our hell

Nothing burns like a memory
The kind you want to forget
But the hooks are in too deep
And your body won't let you repent
Inside you cry out for mercy
A tug-of-war in your chest
A lead feather, a loose chain
A paper tiger in the rain

Oh no
Oh no
Here it comes again

The whisper in your ear
The ideas that give life to shadows
I am the devil you know

Eyes up, look forward
Anothеr mountain to climb
Gravity feels stronger
Under the wеight of night

Oh no
Oh no
Here it comes again

The whisper in your ear
The ideas that give life to shadows
I am the devil you know

I am poison
I am pain
I am effigy
I am the devil you know

See no, hear no
Speak no evil
You have danced with the devil
But you took each step alone

Oh, the whisper in your ear
The ideas that give life to shadows
I am the devil you know
Time to let go
				

A fleur de peau, les flots de haine
Où les sanglots, font de la peine
Avec des mots, de phrases saines
Les idéaux, d'une idée vaine

Vivre libre, oh vivre libre
Et survivre pour vivre libre
Vivre libre, oh vivre libre
Et survivre pour vivre libre

Trop de mort, pour une idée
Et trop de corps, désespérés
Dans un décor, de liberté
Cherchant encore, la vérité

Vivre libre, oh vivre libre
Et survivre pour vivre libre
Vivre libre, oh vivre libre
Et survivre pour vivre libre

Dans la noblesse du langage
Le dernier geste de courage
Et puis cesse l'esclavage
Un jour le rêve prendra la loi

Aucune trêve dans le combat
La lumière fut, la lumière soit
Que dans les rues, l'homme soit roi

Vivre libre, oh vivre libre
Et survivre pour vivre libre
Vivre libre, oh vivre libre
Et survivre pour vivre libre
				

The sands of time, they slip away
Through our fingers day by day
Countless grains, a steady stream
Lost forever like a fleeting dream

Each grain a moment, a memory gone
A story told, a love once shone
A laughter shared, a tear shed
All swept away as time marches ahead

Always chasing something more
Lifeline treading a fine line
The future's knocking at the door

Sands of time
So merciless
What are you waiting for?
The pendulum swings back and forth

The sands of time, they never cease
A never-ending cycle of release
Of what was once and what will be
A reminder of our own mortality

Always chasing something more
Lifeline treading a fine line
The future's knocking at the door

Sands of time
So merciless
What are you waiting for?
The pendulum swings back and forth

Sands of time
So merciless
What are you waiting for?
The pendulum swings back and forth

The pendulum swings back and forth
				

When the sky flashes red
The shadows grow tall and night grips your throat again
The grip of the night

Stand where two voices collide
Every soldier in your army is a year of your life
A year of your life

Friendly fire
Truth is a thief
Faith is a liar
Get out of hell if you can't take the heat!

Forged in flames, we glow
An ember is made from every stone they throw
Blow by blow

Through the rain, we cure
Stronger than before and twice as sure
So heavy and pure

Friendly fire
Truth is a thief
Faith is a liar
Get out of hell while you can...

Down to the wire
Face to face with the three-headed hound
Defeat the ire
Get out of hell, get your feet back on the ground!

A velvet glove!
There's no damage done
With a velvet glove, oh
We keep holding on...

An iron fist
An iron fist in a velvet glove

Get out of hell if you know you can't take the heat
