[music: Mike, Stefan / lyrics: Bastian / guit. solo: Stefan]



Maimed, killed, stabbed

Slain, shot, sliced

Hung, burnt, chopped

Multiple ways to die



Once you've been born

You're living your life

Trying your best

Not to be left

Kind of a race

Part of a maze

Your last day will come

You never know how

Some people can choose

The others just lose

Game over and out

When all lights go down



Dead and gone - Buried deep - In the mud

Had your chance, but you only took and never stopped

Never cared - For anyone - Anything

Await your soul - To be taken away



Away



Now it's dark - Freezing cold - Down below

Lying there - Find yourself - Paralysed

Got no fear - Unanimated - Not alone

Be aware - Of all the things yet to come

On the edge - Side by side - Final place

Just one step - In your mind - Realize

No return - You deserve - What you get

Decay brought you back - Where you belong
