Songtexte Bleeding Sun - Acoustic Medley - Aviators

Sinners from their homes abroad
Servants of a lesser god
They thought it stood to reason
To crucify their treason
Redemption came from triggers pulled
Young and weak thrown to the wolves
I feel them
I feel them
One in all, and all for some
The desperate carry loaded guns
Peace was lost to violence
The righteous stood in silence
Inaction of those who knew
Betrayed the remaining few
I fear them
I fear them

Here we stand, on holy ground
I have heard the thunderous sound
Of millions saying, "Wake up, set us free"

So, how can I embrace the power
Of flesh and this machine?
I'll infect the system
Behind all the scenes
Humanity's darkest hour
I will not run
And I can save the souls still under
This Bleeding Sun

More than a human
Army of one
God of the wasteland
The Bleeding Sun
Fully ascended
The key inside
Immortal angels
Destined to die

Days in neverland grow darker
The forbidden moments come
To a hasty resolution
When the battle starts with one

Take me to the water where the river meets the sea
Let the memory of rising tide come washing over me
I saw fire consume the trusting, with the victims still naïve
And so they bleed
And so they bleed

Sing in grief, a requiem
The curse of our millennium
These souls keep whispering from the river beds
An end to all these violent means
Alive in these red water dreams
Their haunted burdens stirring in my head
On streets still running red

One of us here's a glitch in the system
Someone's been hiding in plain sight (streets still running red)
One of us set the gears in motion
Someone sent from the other side
To break us, take us on our knees
To sabotage the movement we uphold
So I've been told
We're losing control

Oh, let the broken heroes rise
Let the victors take their prize
No one wins when justice dies
War has let this age begin
It's where we've gone and where they've been
What a state that we're in
Here in oblivion

(Here in oblivion)

I think it's beautiful
How the poisoned skies remind me
Behind the veil
I think it's wonderful
How I lost the part I need the most
Like I was born to fail

Dark times of our war crimes
When the bombs we built come back down through the roof
We are live wires in the crossfire
And the pages of our lives aren't bulletproof
I'm a dead man in the wasteland
I'm a soldier fighting for superstition
Under search lights in the long nights
We've been written like dystopian fiction

So let them burn (nobody wants to walk the road alone)
They set the fire (ten thousand miles from home)
Now we can see (I don't wanna disappear)
How they conspire (where do we go from here?)
But they've been shattered (nobody wants to play a useless part)
Like broken glass (in matters of the heart)
I'm standing here so far away (and now we're building better worlds)
(On the ashes of the past) I'll meet you at the end someday

So, light a candle for the cause
They bared their teeth, we showed our claws
And here we are today
We drove their tyranny away
Now, take a second to inquire
Why you should fan this growing fire
Listen to our freedom cry
Here to rebuild or here to die

Give the ending just a little flavor
If you're going down, they'll break as well
'Cause it's too late for a savior
But it's never too late for hell

Fully ascended
The key inside
Immortal angels
Destined to die

So I'll lend you my essence
For your rusted throne
And you could bring back the light
To the last home of civilization
Without which I'm gone
So take this godsoul to bring
Forth a new dawn
I'll forgive the death you've earned
The cities you've burned
The lessons we've learned
For all that remains, just sacrifice me
I'll hide away in a castle on the sea

More than a human
Here in oblivion
Army of one
On holy ground
God of the wasteland
It's too late, it's too late
The Bleeding Sun (the Bleeding Sun)
