Night's wings sweep down and hide their meeting place, all totally hush-hush Now they rush there to fight and rouse some sweet pain and fire up All thought's gone in the hum, you feel that life is in your hands They say it's something only men can understand ‘Cause here the only Lord is pure and brutal force And the word mercy has a totally different sense and flavor The hidden other self raises its head, just to be set free Adrenaline rush is their perfect drug and utter release The night has come so you rush to fight Forgetting the misery that you leave behind The hum in your ears now fills your head They say it's something only men can understand You taste blood in your mouth and all forgiveness is gone, like that Block a blow once and you'll kiss mother earth when you're knocked down flat And what is there to fear, if it's all pain now Here God is gone and nobody will cry Guardian angels stand around deaf and blind A mute wall of sorrow Stony wings over their eyes Guardian angels stand around petrified Sorry hearts all hushed Stone tears running down The night has come so you rush to fight Forgetting the misery that you leave behind The hum in your ears now fills your head They say it's something only men can understand
