Dachau Be My Destiny

The earth stood still
Silence raging in my mind
Can't help but smile
As the fears are washed away
And the ghosts of memories fade
I hear the echo of a whisper inside
Heavens eyes are blind to me
The silence getting louder all the time
Words of God now guide the last,
The last of my days
The last of my days

Live to fight another day
Start my life again
Scars that stay with me
Are ones inside my head
Silent thoughts betray me
Cold blood inside my veins
Embrace the coming madness
With no trace of guilt of shame
Screams never end
Another victim to Hartheim
Piece of heaven breaks away
And leads me to that day
Lies they told me once rang true
I believed in God and son
Now the truth is in my eyes
Empty prayers I'm left with none

I've waited For my life to change
I've waited For God to save me then remake me
I've waited Watched the lives go by
I've waited Without the grace to wonder why
Until I die

Now in my reflection
I see the shadows stand
Silent in the night
A footprint in the sand
Cast my eyes up to the sun
Throw my arms wide to the day
Lead my soul to wander
Far beyond this time and place
See it there before me
Scenes of memories old and new
Misty faded colors
Of horizons gold and blue
Sun now sleeps beyond the hills
Darkness is complete
Leaving me to count the hours
Until the light is born again

The years carry on
Shadows start to move
A candle gives them life
Until the flame is burnt and gone
Daydreams of the past
Escape into your mind
Ghosts of yesterday
Make the nights go by so fast
Moonlight dances on the floor
I hear the distant cries
Tear me from my haunted sleep
For what seems a thousand times
I dare to think of freedom
Footsteps in the night
All of those I leave behind
As I tell the world goodbye
