First single of the new album "Mother Universe". Enjoy a monumental, orchestral track with epic choirs!

lyrics

The game is over.
A war grimly arises.
To blood the moon turns.
The dark obscures the sun's fading light.

Soldiers fight and die for
delusions of grandeur.
Ruthless maniacs lead them,
disguised as saviours.
None can be the winner,
we all will lose instead.
It's too late to turn back,
to change and to regret.

The game is over, over.
Our past sins
have caught up
dreams end up in debris and smoke.
God Mars reigns,
no way to escape his forces,
we failed to calm him,
to soothe us
and finally bring mankind global peace.

Will we ever overcome our hatred?
Will we ever learn to live in peace?
Will the morning sun shine on our children?
Or will our light of life just cease?

The game is over.
The war grimly arises.
The greed has been sowing.
The hate is reaping mercilessly.

Millions pay the price for our endless, shoreless greed.
With distrust we implant the war’s maledict seed.
There is but one earth. How dare we waste this unique gift?
Stones are silent carvings of the life once lived.

The game is over, over.
Forgotten
our culture
and wasted our talents and gifts.
God Mars reigns,
no way to
escape his forces,
we failed to calm him,
to soothe us
and finally bring mankind global peace.

Will our children play amidst the flowers?
Will they evolve without shedding blood?
Buds can't blossom when their heads are cut!

The game is over.
Just hate and ire remain.
Our blood turns the rivers red,
our tears will tell our story of pain.
Let's hope whoever succeeds
us will be wiser and see
how great life could be
without the reign of Mars,
without senseless deaths,
without war, hate and greed,
without senseless deaths
and without Mars, without war!
Without these deaths and without Mars and without war!
