Arch Enemy - Burning Bridges [Full Album 1999]

Lyrics to Burning Bridges [Full Album 1999] by Arch Enemy

Tracklist: 01. The Immortal This liquid vision of euphoria Living a life on borrowed time Paying the price of immortality Desperately avoiding our fate Lead me through the halls of tortured souls Alone, forlorn... human dignity dethroned Forevermore - A life never ending Time stands still as the immortals keep on breeding The future is locked within us All we need is the key Crying at the fountain of youth Eternal life is killing me Triumphant in chariots they ride On this arena of the undead Anoher lap of honour for the... Vacant galleries Lead me through the halls of tortured souls Alone, forlorn... human dignity dethroned Forevermore - A life never ending Time stands still as the immortals keep on breeding 02. Dead Inside Spiritual Isolation - The ultimate frustration Scratch the surface, tuurn another page The ugly truth or another pretty lie You deceived me, I believed you Why did everything go... So wrong... For so long... So the truth comes out at last I'm dead inside (I'm burning up) A hollow shell (My private hell) In my own misery You leave me to dwell Then we were young and strong Now everything is wrong Did you want me, did you need me Could you not say you believed me? Everything we had is gone... Like an old forgotten song The deceiver and believer Now everything is... So wrong... for so long. 03. Pilgrim From the womb, to the tomb An eternal struggle for the holy truth We are not the first, nor shall we be the last We shall be followed by thousands more Study the scriptures - Intensify the faith The works of men much greater than you or I From the cradle to the grave Thousands of immortal souls just waiting to be saved! Pilgrim man - What are you searching for? Believe the tales when everything else fails Pilgrim man - Deep in your heart you know Your faith is already bought and sold All my life I served the cross Always believing my God was a just one I maimed for you - I killed for you But looking back at my life I just don't know anymore... 04. Silverwing Fly with me on a starlit sky I'll set you free... Yes, it can be A dream unchased is a life at waste Never let them conquer your pride Our love is warm here Like the image of a distant sun This star will always shine And never, ever fade away Fly on... Silverwing Fly with me... Stay free... Silverwing Seeking truths in spirit skies Which one of you will guide me tonight? The milky way tastes sour, Has heaven lost its power? So let us set sail on this sea of dreams The moon gets lost in the morning sun Just let the spinning wheel spin And let your life begin 05. Demonic Science The human blood is far too thin The life in it much too fragile DNA code twisted into form An ancient dream will now be reborn Demonic! Science! A high price for a passion so intense Demonic! Science! This world no longer makes any sense Save the best - strip away the rest Every weakness, every bleakness will be erased New flesh for a new world! Men in white clothes performing the ultimate test This is the era - this is the time A new dawn arrives... 06. Seed Of Hate The shape of all my doubts... My fear Come closer... Trust me Here I stand in the falling rain There is no joy inside these tears I see the world through a twisted and bitter stare To be where I have been... to see what I have seen Is it a dream? Or can I believe... The memories will haunt me for evermore The shape of all my doubts... My fear Come closer... I trusted you I am not the man you used to know I am different... Everything is different now When you left me, you planted a seed of hate in me Nothing is stronger... Stronger than this 07. Angelclaw Angelclaw - A queen of the night She reigns from her throne of stone Bringer of evil, a destroyer of souls Do what thou wilt, lust is her excuse She'll use you up, suck you dry This beautiful creature makes you high Try to break the spell that is cast Bu she knows you all to well Angelclaw... Effigy of a God long forgotten A sickening ritual She raises the chalice of blood The hunt starts again... 08. Burning Bridges So now the bridges are burnt A lesson learned? Promises broken Tender lies softly spoken Changes in you Changes in me Maybe it was never meant to be It wasn't you It wasn't me We were far too close to see 09. Diva Satanica Divine queen of evil Sowing her seeds of hate Mistress of pain Diva Satanica - Master of temptation Medusa... abuser... both beast and beauty Seducer... she'll use you... bring you to your knees Blinded by her infinite beauty you are lured into the temple The smell of incense burning this carnal pleasure yearning Bride of Satan Transgress the rules of this world Too late you realize this love is ripping you apart Medusa... abuser... both beast and beauty Seducer... she'll use you... as fodder for her dreams Drinking the blood Eating the flesh She's getting high on you Watching you die gives her a thrill ...There is always more blood to spill...
