Funker Vogt Album

They do the things all soldiers do
While they’re waiting to die
Writing letters to their friends
That will never be delivered

They have dreams about escaping
Getting away underneath the fence
And being, once more reunited
With their families and friends

Chorus:
Sitting calmly in the barracks
From where they watch the guards
Standing at the maingate
Smoking and playing cards

But this remains just wishful thinking
Deep inside they all know
There’s no escape from this place
A dead end is as far as they can go

They called me the tragic hero
They avoided my company
My names were only whispered
Just a tale for a moonless night

Fallen hero fits much better
To describe my true fate
Once a fighter for the light
Reduced to an observer

And again I hear the voices
A distant thunder through the night
The angel of destruction
Summoning her fellows for the fight

Chorus:
Now the time has come and yet you stand alone
The enemy is mighty and too strong
Without any help you will loose on your own
So you call out for me to come along

Now this can turn my fate
Revive my true confession
To be a fighter once again
Standing here by your side

This might be my last mission
The final fight for mankind
Reunited on the eve of the apocalypse

And again I hear the voices
A distant thunder through the night
The angel of destruction
Summoning her fellows for the fight

Chorus

I met her in a restaurant
A face that you will not forget
A character you will not find
In a thousand women you have met

Chorus:
Here she comes with a load of sorrows
I don’t care there’s no tomorrow
Tonight, yes tonight, I feel good
And tomorrow worse than I should

Her body in a perfect shape
A smile that will turn you down
Resistance is impossible
You could only give in

Chorus

[No lyrics]

[No lyrics]

Locked away in rooms and routines
But some things are worse than walls
Never ending grief surrounds us
And sometimes I can hear their calls
But I prefer not to notice
What there was and has been
The ugly truth locked away
Will forget what I have seen

So I’m looking for a hell dimension
Where everyday is smile-time
Where there’s no need for action
A place devoid of crime

But Pleasantville is far too boring
I have almost lost my mind
It’s better to face the facts
There is no better truth to find

And again I stare, at the truth I couldn’t bear
Not today and not tomorrow
There’s no escape from the house of sorrows
And again I stare, at the truth I couldn’t bear
The tragedies of my past
This feeling will forever last
I’m in the house of sorrows
I'm in the house of sorrows

It never was and never will be
The sun setting beyond horizons
It always was and ever will be
The earth which keeps on turning

The world moved on and left me here
The world moved on and left me here
The world moved on and left me here
The world moved on and left me here

Chorus:
The world moved on and left me here
Without any direction
I feel hopeless without fear
Facing this selection

The emptiness crowds in around me
No distractions from my thoughts
Remembering the last words
It won’t be long, I promise

The world moved on and left me here
The world moved on and left me here
The world moved on and left me here
The world moved on and left me here
(The world moved on and left me here!)

Chorus

Our shields are all down
Nothing can hold them back
An overwhelming force came for just one reason
They came with a thousand ships
And soldiers by the million
Blaster fire smashed our shields
They all came tumbling down

Chorus:
Once they win
Once they drop their guard
We will hit them
We will hit them hard
This fight is lost
This fight will end our reign
But we will return
Our light will shine again

Obviously, there is so much – so much worth fighting for
And too few men are left to hold the ground – to hold the ground

Chorus

Finally it is time – it’s time to retreat
Assembling all our forces in our last stronghold

Chorus

A dream finally came true
To wear this special uniform
To join in their company
The best of the best

Always been a believer
In your own capacity
The training never was too hard
No one could break you

Bridge:
Reach out for the stars
Your strong will got you hear
You walked a stony way
Without the slightest sign of fear

Refrain:
We’re starfighters, fly all day and all night
And all that we see is our cockpit-light
We’re starfighters and we love it so much
It’s our obsession, we have the master’s touch

It was an everlasting dream
The last thing you wish to see:
Flying into a supernova
While you are going down

Bridge

Refrain

A big crowd controlled by fear
Always underestimated
But beware of the time
When they will break loose
Why do we always forget
That there are more of us
We have the chance to overcome them
We have the chance to break free

Chorus:
Reject the lies you’ve been told
Reject the system spreading it
Do not put your life on hold
Do not believe all this shit

We have always held the power
Now it’s time to seize it back
Just a matter of being fearless
And the will to use it now

Chorus

We have been so disillusioned
We have been rather blind
Now we awake slowly
And rise from the dead

Chorus

Do not believe all this shit

Was it an act of evolution or a mistake more divine?
The creation of mankind a million years ago
Too few of them can be convinced about the truth of life
The majority of men - still fighting for their own ends

Chorus:
Chorus girls in uniform like fallen angels by my side
Celebrating the modern age
The devil wins this fight
In the end we are condemned to go down with our race
Too much destroyed already
We have reached the end of days

We have reached the final chapter
We are almost at the end
The time we have remaining is better wisely spent

Chorus

Dein Anblick ist die beste Medizin
Du führst mich in den Himmel
Schenkst mir dein Adrenalin
Durch deine Venen fließt mein Blut
Das Gefühl deiner Nähe reflektiert so tief und so gut

Wir sind voneinander besessen
Nichts hält uns je mehr auf
Zum Himmel von Schwerkraft befreit
Nimm mich mit auf die Reise
Zeig mir den Weg der Offenherzigkeit nur erfüllt mit deiner Liebe

Chorus:
Dieses Lied ist nur für dich
Seine Gültigkeit erhalten
Selbst wenn mein Weg zu Ende ist
Leb deinen Traum, leb dein Leben!
Und sei dir stets bewusst:
Immer werd’ ich dich begleiten
