- A Day to Feel Alive
Что, если я полюблю тебя всего на один день?
Просто закрою глаза и растворюсь в мечтах.
Я ждал слишком долго, и мне все равно, если это будет ошибкой.
Что, если я полюблю тебя всего на один день?
Я очень хочу влюбиться в тебя.
Знаю, это сумасшествие.
Но любовь — единственная возможность пережить этот день.
- Ajcyna
Айчына (Aichyna)
(Слова: П. Ермак)
Мiнаюць аднолькавыя днi,
Як бяссэнсовы шэраг
Падзеяў брудна-шэрых,
Чужых маёй зямлi.
Цi прыйзде новы дзень,
- Another Hero
Прости его, отец, он должен уйти.
Он хочет сказать тебе что-то, о чем ты должен знать.
Но время настало, и ждать сын больше не может.
Друзья ждут его на баррикадах.
Прости его, мама, но всей своей любовью
Ты не сможешь остановить его.
Время настало, и планы уже не изменишь.
- Breath of Life
Breath Of Life
(Lyrics by Dmitry Basik & Alex Vertel)
Putting the stakes till the point when I lose.
Risking it all till I have to pay dues.
Fly real high till the day when I fall.
If tomorrow I die — does it matter at all?
If I burn then to the ashes I burn.
- Dancing on the Ledge
[Lyrics by Dmitry Basik & Alena Gornyh]
If you see me dead blind, if you find me insane,
Wildly dancing on ledge of the house in flame.
Will you stay next to me when there's no one around?
Will you dance by my side when the ledge crashes down?
Why have we ever been there? Lent to each other's embrace,
Just helpless puppets we've been dragged from quite different plays.
- Divine Contract
Stand by me shining bright. Lead me out to the light.
From the dark I am in. From my vice and my sin.
Hallelujah.
Arrogant and so naive, in myself I did believe
Thought I could decide my fate
And find the key to the heaven's gate
- Dreaming
I can see you so real standing right by my side. I do.
And I swear I can feel every beat of your heart. I do.
I reach out to touch you, to catch, to embrace you,
To never let go, never miss, never chase you...
I try to drown, to get lost in your eyes.
As the years go by and the memories fade away,
No more tears to cry, no more words have been left to say.
- Dress Me Black
You hate to see me dressed in black,
But now I’m ready to fight back.
It’s time for you to realize
That there will be no compromise.
I won’t do things you want me to.
Will not become the one like you.
I’m dressed in black, but not to grieve.
- End of Line
Brothers of mine, what have we done?
Why do we hide? Where do we run?
Look in my eyes and tell me the truth,
Is it the price for the life we would choose?
Maybe we will have a chance this time.
Let's spread our arms and maybe off we'll fly.
- Final Chapter
Life is a book. Every next page is another step to the end. The page you are turning may be the beginning of the final chapter. Remember that...
What is my life?
The gift of god?
Or is it curse, the endless rod?
What is my faith?
The light ahead
Or is it ravings of the mad?
- For The Last Time
(lyrics by Dm. Basik)
Wish I could, had a chance
To die for one day just in pretence.
To see them cry and regret.
So I could say: I’m not dead yet!
Did you ever cut veins with a wreck of your hope?
Did you see how life trains to the collar of rope.
- Forbidden Tunes
I feel you scream of me. I feel you dream of me.
You want, you wish, you long — it bursts out from within.
I am your secret place, your real sweetest face.
I am the one you once have been.
I'm your forbidden tunes. Desires turned to wounds.
I am your cherished dreams. Dreams that didn't come true.
I am your feelings trod. Your moan that was not heard.
- Freedom Comes
Freedom Comes
(lyrics by Dm. Basik & Al. Vertel)
It came down like a hurricane,
Like an earthquake, freezing rain,
Like a flood, like a lava flow,
Like one crushing fatal blow.
- Hellbound
Don’t look deep behind, deep behind my eyes.
It’s where it hides, it’s where the monster lies.
It’s in my blood, my veins, hiding in my smile,
My heart, my brain, my gentle style.
Don’t you meet my look — it stones cold.
Bite the bait — the hook becomes unfold.
You try to hide yourself but legs refuse to run.
- Hurt
Hurt
(Lyrics by Dmitry Basik, Alex Vertel, Alena Gornyh)
I hide my shame in dusk of night,
That shelters me so lonely.
Why take me to the rays of light?
You know it hurts.
You cradle me in your embrace,
But I'm still cold and scared.
- Hymn To My Dying land
Эй, земля порабощенного народа!
Прерви свой сон, открой глаза.
Разорви цепи унижения,
Встань с кровоточащих колен!
Сколько ты должна еще терпеть боль,
Чтобы восстать в борьбе?
Сколько еще будут править тираны
В моем превращенном в тюрьму доме?
- Land Of Lakes
(lyrics by Dmitry Basik)
Here I am uncouth and wild
Here I am tolerant and mild
Look at me, your neglected child,
My hard-hearted Land of Lakes.
You gave me birth but drained my soul,
You cut my wings and let me fall,
- Let It Burn
Did you see the rays of light? Light turning black to white.
Or did you keep your eyes still closed, looking your own way?
Did you hear the tolling bell when heavens turned to hell?
Or did you keep your ears closed living your own day?
Did you scent the smell of flame? Or did it smell the same
With the scent of your daydreaming, sweet illusions guile?
Did you taste the taste of hope that turned to hangman's rope?
Or did you keep your lips still closed in a foolish smile?
- Lost Generation
Let's go!
Sex, drugs, rock 'n roll. Born to trigger public toll,
I'm the one - one against all.
I live my own day, I walk my own way,
And I shout out loud my own call.
Out from Nowhere Land, straight to the dead end,
Right through the point of no return.
- Masquerade Of Piety
Saint with holly stings
Halo and angel wings.
Light! The masquerade begins.
You are ideal hailed
The core that has prevailed,
The judge to blame me of my sins.
Why do you chase me?
Why'd you disgrace me?
- My Cruel Mirror
MY CRUEL MIRROR
(lyrics by D.Basik & A.Vertel)
Embraced by spotlights,
Met by the storms of wild applause
And crowds shouting my name,
I was admired, praised by the whole universe
That humbly spun around my fame.
The brightest visions,
- Pariah
With dismay you meet the rising dawn,
Tired of the endless roam,
You've lost your way and there is no return
To the place you long ago called home.
With a burnt out soul and broken will,
After years of pain you've suffered through,
With every freedom-loving breath they'd kill,
There's nothing left of the real you
- Polka
They tried to make him knuckle down. They tried to bend him to the ground. But he's still standing, proud child that he is!
Look at me decrepit old man,
Bent by hundred years weight,
Beaten many times by whims of fate.
From the dawn until the sunset
Worked like dog for daily bread —
Crust and water were all that I had!
- Requiem to Innocence
Somewhere, joyfully a-rolling with a didn't-come-true dream,
Aboard the paper ship a-sailing drying out wishes stream,
Flying on the wings of melody of timid first slow dance,
Lives in mind's gloomy corner shadow of the Innocence.
It's the first strokes of red paint on the canvas then still white,
It's the images a-shaping into the alluring sight,
It's the touch to bud of rose that hasn't bloomed seducing grace,
- The Man With Heart Of Gold
The Man With Heart Of Gold
(lyrics by Dm. Basik & Al. Vertel)
Pleased we've met. You will never regret.
I'm the man with the heart of gold.
Trust in me, I will make you feel free.
I'm the man who will change your world.
Take my hand – it will feed and defend,
- The Unbroken
The Unbroken
(Lyrics by Dm. Basik & Al. Vertel)
Beat us — we will stand. Burn us — we'll survive. For you know, you can kill everything but freedom.
Beat me — I will stand,
Burn me — I'll survive,
I fight for my land —
- The Verge of Extinction
The voices of riots, overflowed with hate,
Returning to life tell the truth,
The tongues of indictment,
Nailed to history's gate,
Revenge for inflicted abuse.
The mutinous souls, once refused to submit,
Find peace and release,
And cut off throats of the prophets accrete,
- Vicious Circle
Vicious Circle
(Lyrics by Dm. Basik & Al. Vertel)
It blinds your mind, it calls you to step inside. Once you get there, you never escape. Are you sure you are not trapped within this circle already?
I can see nothing through my blurried sight...
Just hear the pain growling from inside...
I feel the needle tapping my vein...
- Айчына
Мiнаюць аднолькавыя днi,
Як бяссэнсовы шэраг
Падзеяў брудна-шэрых,
Чужых маёй зямлi.
Цi прыйзде новы дзень,
Пазбаўлены маны,
Дзяржаўнае хлуснi,
Цi дзень той прыйдзе?
