Blacked out
Pop queen, amphetamine
The screams crashed into silence

Tapped out
Doused in the gasoline
The high times going timeless

Decadence
Death of the innocence
The pathway starts to spiral

Infamy
All for publicity
Destruction going viral

Light it up
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, kill the truth
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again

Sold your soul, built a higher wall
Yesterday, now you’re thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A Moth Into the Flame

Twisted
Backstabbing wicked
The delusion absolution

Perjurer
Fame is the murderer
Seduce you into ruin

Light it up
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, tell the truth
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again

Sold your soul, built a higher wall
Yesterday, now you’re thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A Moth Into the Flame…burn!

Guarantee your name, you go and kill yourself
The vultures feast around you still
Overdose on shame and insecurity
If one won’t do, that fistful will

Death scene
Black hearse the limousine
A grave filled with seduction

Vaccine
Fame does the murdering
She builds up for destruction

So light it up
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, no excuse
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again

Sold your soul, built a higher wall
Yesterday, now you’re thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A Moth Into the Flame

Addicted to the…fame

Metallica – Moth Into Flame

Deep in the dead of winter
Ice chokes the water in the bay
Out from the warmth I have come
Bring those from village gone astray

Walked out on a Frozen Lake
Deceived by the one-eyed god
To fulfill my duty to my king
To protect his children from all harm

Slowly I take my final steps
My lord’s sons a few paces yon
I hear a sound, I go slowly
One misstep on icy crust I’m gone

The ice begins to break
I feel the fractures under my feet
Now breaks the rime and frost
I cry in fright as I meet the deep

Vikingbard – Frozen Lake
