The band explains: „One of the songs on our current album is called DEATHLESS, which deals with the topic of sexualised violence. According to UNIFEM it is estimated that 35 per cent of women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence or sexual violence by a non-partner (not including sexual harassment) at some point in their lives.
For anyone affected, we would like to hint at the following organizations:
– Unwomen.org
– the help line of the Federal Office for Family Affairs
– Zartbitter .e.V. with whom we have already been able to work together in the past thanks to your helpfulness.
Thanks to Ben // Port Royal Films for the video!“
Lyrics:
You are waging war against yourselves
Taking the blame
Bearing a cross that is theirs
Living their shame
Like a ghost you swim
These forests of flesh
With no one saying anything
Lifeless unrest
You can kill a sea of demons
But not a horde of skeletons
Your souls may be darkened
But will always shine brighter than theirs
Curse the fates – storm the gates
Blast your steam into the skies
Fight or be fought
Choose or be chosen
Do or be done to
You are waging war against yourselves
Taking the blame
Under this tombstone of pain
Still lies a fountain of life
Chorus
You can kill a sea of demons
But not a horde of skeletons
Your souls may be darkened
But will always shine brighter than theirs
