1. Restless
She embraced, with a smile As she opened the door. A cold wind blows, it puts a chill into her heart. You have taken away the trust, you're the ghost haunting through her heart. Past and present are one in her head, you're the ghost haunting through her heart. Take my hand as I wonder through, All my life I gave to you. Take my hand as I wonder through, All my love I gave to you. You have taken away the trust, you're the ghost haunting through her heart. Take my hand as I wonder through, All my life I gave to you. Take my hand as I wonder through, All my love I gave to you.

2. Enter
The gates of time have opened, Now, it's chains are broken. An ancient force unleashed again As I enter the portal, I feel the enchantment

It takes me away, away from here Come near me, enter my private chambers, I want to feel the warmth on my face, light-in darkness, lift me up from here. Give me you wings, to flee from my ivory tower. As I enter the portal, I feel the enchantment The stars above are lying at my feet. Come near me, enter my private chambers, I want to feel the warmth on my face, light-in darkness, lift me up from here. Give me you wings, to flee from my ivory tower.

3. Pearls Of Light
After, the cold darkness, in the heart of the forest. Where birds are singing, for the new born sun In the womb of the leaves, on the branches of the trees, lies the treasure of the morning, the pearls of light. Carried away by thee truculence of my world, I got lost in the search for enlightenment, The blue rain covered my roots and I forgot where I came from. Carried away by thee truculence of my world, I got lost in the search for enlightenment, The blue rain covered my roots and I forgot where I came from.

4. Deep Within
Is there a place deep within?

A place where you hide your darkest sins There's a strange kind of ambiance, it's surrounding you as a songstress you lure me, towards the truth Candles die down ass you leave the room In my heart you leave no gloom As you lure me I know the truth You're a leprechaun, I see you through. Is there a place deep within? A place where you hide your darkest sins There's a strange kind of ambiance, it's surrounding you as a songstress you lure me, towards the truth

5. Gatekeeper
The shadows of the night, are unleashed again. Where their greed begins the end is near. A morbid hunger for blood, lies in their cold black eyes They've come to take our lives away. One by one they died. A massacre that took all night They had no chance, it was no fight You can't kill what has been killed before, They died... With shadows on its tale. He stepped Through the portal, locked the door and ate the key. With his life they took their way to freedom, and be became the final keeper of the key.

6. Grace
Cold are the bones of thy soldiers. Longing for home, their little paradise.

I don't feel redemption on their side Fallen from grace, help me rise again. Fallen from grace, help me through. Fallen from grace, help me through. Fallen from grace. Feel these hands, the pressure, the cold, tremble. Do you hear these words. Do you feel the wounds. I'll never help you through. Cold are thy souls, I feel the resentment, they feel betrayed, They hate the cold I don't feel redemption on their side. Fallen from grace, help me rise again. Fallen from grace, help me through.

7. Blooded
[instrumental]

8. Candles
Take away, These hands of darkness. Reaching for my soul. Now, the cold wind, blows out my candles. Feeling, only fear, without any hope. A thousand dark moons. A thousand winters long. A million fallen stars, the candle burns in the womb. We tried not to forget, they live through us. Slowly they die away at every candle's end

A thousand dark moons. A thousand winters long. A million fallen stars, the candle burns in the womb. We tried not to forget, they live through us. Slowly they die away at every candle's end

EP: "The Dance" (1997)
1. The Dance 2. Another Day 3. The Other Half (Of Me)

1. The Dance
Someone is dancing on my grave Sending shivers down my spine. I hear a laugh, it awoke my soul The wind takes the leaves where he wants them to go His tunes enchant our world, our thoughts and leaves us frozen In this heart of mine It's you I find Take my hand I'll take you to the promised land You're the one I hear a laugh, it awoke my soul The wind takes the leaves where he wants them to go His tunes enchant our will, Our thoughts and leaves us frozen Take my hand I'll take you to the promised land Nevil, whatever you have done, these tears will fade

Nevil, where ever have you gone, please have faith

2. Another Day
I know you're going away I take my love into another day In my thoughts you're with me I fell in love with your ways I know you're going away Lead my heart into a daze I know you're going away Leaves a void in my heart and soul Wherever you are Whatever you do I feel the walls surrounding you Wherever you are Whatever you do I know you are independent But I'm trying to get through to you Wherever you are Whatever you do Don't you know, it depends on you [Repeat 1st verse]

3. The Other Half (Of Me)


Over the hills, lies a new beginning Over the hills Over the hills, there is a way I know it Over the hills You can't bring all the gloom Your heart is frayed and so empty You glorify the future Living in a different world than me The journey ends in death You are giving up so easily You are the other half of me Over the hills [4x]

We are drifting apart Chilled to the marrow, cause you don't want to go Cause we've got a different wish at heart The amulet guides us to the other side When I go down it's you who'll bleed I'm not scared to die, as long as I'm with you You are the other half of me Over the hills, lies a new beginning Over the hills Over the hills, there's a way I know it Over the hills

1. Mother Earth 2. Ice Queen 3. Our Farewell 4. Caged 5. The Promise 6. Never-ending Story 7. Deceiver Of Fools 8. Intro 9. Dark Wings 10. Perfect Harmony 11. World Of Make Believe 12. Deep Within 13. The Dance 14. Restless (Classical Version) 15. Bittersweet

1. Mother Earth
Birds and butterflies Rivers and mountains she creates But you'll never know The next move she'll make You can try But it is useless to ask why Cannot control her She goes her own way

She rules until the end of time She gives and she takes She rules until the end of time She goes her own way With every breath And all the choices that we make We are only passing through on her way I find my strength Believing that your soul lives on Until the end of time I'll carry it with me Once you will know my dear You don't have to fear A new beginning always starts at the end Until the end of time She goes her own way

2. Ice Queen
When leaves have fallen And skies turned into grey. The night keeps on closing in on the day A nightingale sings his song of farewell You better hide for her freezing hell On cold wings she's coming You better keep moving For warmth, you'll be longing Come on just feel it Don't you see it? You better believe it. When she embraces Your heart turns to stone She comes at night when you are all alone And when she whispers Your blood shall run cold You better hide before she finds you Whenever she is raging She takes all life away Haven't you seen? Haven't you seen? The ruins of our world She covers the earth with a breathtaking cloak

The sun awakes and melts it away The world now opens its eyes and sees The dawning of a new day Whenever she is raging She takes all life away Haven't you seen? Haven't you seen? The ruins of our world

3. Our Farewell
In my hands A legacy of memories I can hear you say my name I can almost see your smile Feel the warmth of your embrace But there is nothing but silence now Around the one I loved Is this our farewell? Sweet darling you worry too much, my child See the sadness in your eyes You are not alone in life Although you might think that you are Never thought This day would come so soon We had no time to say goodbye How can the world just carry on? I feel so lost when you are not at my side But there's nothing but silence now Around the one I loved Is this our farewell? So sorry your world is tumbling down I will watch you through these nights Rest your head and go to sleep Because my child, this not our farewell. This is not our farewell.

4. Caged
These are the darkest clouds To have surrounded me Now I find my self alone caught in a cage

There's no flower to be found in here Not withering Or pale to me Everyone with a friendly face Seems to hide some secret inside He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind My heart is covered With thoughts entangled How could it ever have felt so real? Is there a place more lonely than I feel within? Could I have seen? Could I have known? I just took it as the truth Everyone with a friendly face Seems to hide some secret inside He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind Always there to remind me It keeps me from believing That someone might be there Who'll free me and never ever leave me

5. The Promise
On behalf of her love She no longer sleeps Life had no longer meaning Nothing to make her stay She sold her soul away I held you tight to me You slipped away You promised to return to me And I believed, I believed

After the night he died I wept my tears until they dried But the pain stayed the same I didn't want him to die all in vain I made a promise to revenge his soul in time I'll make them bleed down at my feet Sometimes I wonder Could I have known about their true intentions? As the pain stayed the same I'm going to haunt them down all the way I made a promise to revenge his soul in time One by one they were surprised

6. Never-ending Story
Armies have conquered And fallen in the end Kingdoms have risen Then buried by sand The Earth is our mother She gives and she takes She puts us to sleep and In her light we'll awake We'll all be forgotten There's no endless fame But everything we do Is never in vain We're part of a story, part of a tale We're all on this journey No one is to stay Where ever it's going What is the way? Forests and deserts Rivers, blue seas Mountains and valleys Nothing here stays While we think we witness We are part of the scene This never-ending story Where will it lead to? The earth is our mother She gives and she takes But she is also a part A part of the tale

We're part of a story, part of a tale We're all on this journey No one is to stay Where ever it's going What is the way? We're part of a story, part of a tale Sometimes beautiful and sometimes insane No one remembers how it began.

7. Deceiver Of Fools
He feeds on fear He feeds on pain He rules again With growing hate He will guide Their faith again No light in the darkness Is too small to see There's always a sparkle of hope If you just believe He told the tale so many times About the dream not meant to be In a world of the free He plays with your mind As faith for the future faded fast He grows strong with their displeasure It sets him free Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules with fear Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules again He feeds on fear Poisons the truth To gain their faith To lead the way To a world of decay He rules your heart He will sell your soul to the grave

No hesitation he'll make He belongs to the dark Please awake And see the truth He can only be If you believe what he tells you Remember who you are What you stand for And there will always be a way In my heart there is a place In my heart there is a trace Of a small fire burning A sheltering ray shines through this night Although it 's small, it's bright But darkness is lurking He will sell your soul to bitterness and cold Fear him Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules with fear Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools Shall he rule again?

8. Intro
[instrumental]

9. Dark Wings
Why was I one of the chosen ones? Until the fight I could not see The magic and the strength of my power It was beyond my wildest dreams Dark wings they are descending See shadows gathering around One by one they are falling Every time they try to strike us down Don't you die on me You haven't made your peace

Live life, breathe, breathe Don't you die on me You haven't made your peace Live life, breathe, breathe As they took your soul away The night turned into the day Blinded by your rays of life Give us the strength we needed

10. Perfect Harmony


In a world so far away At the end of a closing day A little child was born and raised Deep in the forest on a hidden place Mother never saw his face Ancient spirits of the forest Made him king of elves and trees He was the only human being Who lived in harmony In perfect harmony The woods protected, fulfillled his needs Fruit by birds, honey by bees He found shelter under trees He grew up in their company They became his family A thousand seasons They passed him by So many times, have said goodbye And when the spirits called out his name To join forever, forever to stay A forest spirit he became

11. World Of Make Believe


[Bonus track] On golden wings She flies at night With her dress

It's blinding white Countless diamonds And her long blonde hair The queen is coming So you better be aware Her plums and flowers They're never the same Blue and silver It's all her game Flying dragons And enchanted woods She decides, she creates It's her reality [REF:] In her world of dreams and make believe She reigns forever With all her glory Unicorns appear in her sight The fireflies lead her trough these woods at night In search of the legendary amulet And it's secret In the big oak there is a door Which will lead her To the wizard shore And she'll ask him For the wind to sail her home To the world where she belongs [REF:] In her world of dreams and make believe She reigns forever With all her glory In this world of endless fantasy She makes it happen It's her reality [REF:] In her world of dreams and make believe She reigns forever With all her glory In this world of endless fantasy She makes it happen It's her reality

[Bonus track] If I tell you Will you listen? Will you stay? Will you be here forever? Never go away? Never thought things would change Hold me tight Please don't say again That you have to go A bitter thought I had it all But I just let it go Hold your silence

1. Running Up That Hill


It doesn't hurt me. Do you want to feel how it feels? Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me? Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making? It's you and me. And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God,

And let him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building. So if I only could... You don't want to hurt me, But see how deep the bullet lies. Unaware I'm tearing you asunder. Oh, there is thunder in our hearts. Is there so much hate for the ones we love? Oh tell me, we both matter, don't we? It's you, it's you and me. It's you and me won't be unhappy. And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And let him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building, Say, if I only could, oh... You, It's you and me, It's you and me won't be unhappy. "C'mon, baby, c'mon darling, Let me steal this moment from you now. C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling, Let's exchange the experience, oh..." And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And let him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems. And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And let him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems. And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And let him to swap our places,

Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems. If I only could Be running up that hill With no problems...

[Instrumental]

2. See Who I Am
Is it true what they say? Are we too blind to find a way? Fear of the unknown Clouds our hearts today. Come into my world, See through my eyes. Try to understand, Don't want to lose what we have. We've been dreaming But who can deny? It's the best way of living Between the truth and the lies. [Chorus:] See who I am, Break through the surface. Reach for my hand, Let's show them that we can Free our minds and find a way. The world is in our hands, This is not the end. Fear is withering the soul At the point of no return. We must be the change we wish to see. I'll come into your world, See through your eyes. I'll try to understand, Before we lose what we have. We just can't stop believing Because we have to try. We can rise above their truth and their lies. [Chorus x2]

See who I am, Break through the surface. Reach for my hand, Let's show them that we can Free our minds and find a way. The world is in our hands. This is not the end. I hear their silence Preaching my blame. Will our strength remain If their power reigns? [Chorus x2] See who I am, Break through the surface. Reach for my hand, And show them that we can Free our minds and find a way. The world is in our hands. This is not the end.

3. Jillian
I've been dreaming for so long, To find a meaning To understand. The secret of life, Why am I here To try again? Will I always, Will you always See the truth When it stares you in the face? Will I ever Will I never free myself By breaking these chains? [Chorus:] I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, Have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back

And then at last I'll be on my way. I've been living for so long, Many seasons have passed me by. I've seen kingdoms through ages Rise and fall, I've seen it all. I've seen the horror, I've seen the wonders Happening just in front of my eyes. Will I ever Will I never free myself by making it right? [Chorus] Jillian Our dream ended long ago. All our stories And all our glory I held so dear. We won't be together for ever and ever, No more tears. I'll always be here Until the end... [Voices] (Jillian, no more tears... Jillian, no more tears...) [Chorus]

4. Stand My Ground
I can see When you stay low nothing happens Does it feel right? Late at night Things I thought I put behind me Haunt my mind I just know there's no escape Now once it sets its eyes on you But I won't run, Have to stare it in the eye

[Chorus:] Stand my ground, I won't give in No more denying, I've got to face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground It's all around Getting stronger, coming closer Into my world I can feel That it's time for me to face it Can I take it? Though this might just be the ending Of the life I held so dear But I won't run, There's no turning back from here [Chorus] All I know for sure is I'm trying I will always stand my ground Stand my ground, I won't give in (I won't give in) I won't give up (I won't give up) no more denying, I got to face it won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside if I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground, I won't give in no more denying, I got to face it won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside if I don't make it, someone else will stand my ground

5. Pale
The world seems not the same Though I know nothing has changed It's all my state of mind I can't leave it all behind I have to stand up to be stronger [Chorus:] I have to try To break free

From the thoughts in my mind Use the time that I have I can say goodbye Have to make it right Have to fight 'Cause I know in the end it's worthwhile That the pain that I feel slowly fades away It will be all right I know I should realize Time is precious It is worthwhile Despite how I feel inside Have to trust it'll be alright Have to stand up to be stronger [Chorus] Oh, this night is too long Have no strength to go on No more pain I'm floating away Through the mist I see the face Of an angel, calls my name I remember you're the reason I have to stay [Chorus]

6. Forsaken
Now the day has come We are forsaken this time We lived our lives In our paradise As Gods we shaped the world around No borderlines We stayed behind Though balance is something fragile Well we thought we were gaining We turned back the time It still slips away Our time has run out Our future has died There's no more escape

[Chorus:] Now the day has come We are forsaken There's no time any more Life will pass us by We are forsaken We're the last of our kind The sacrifice Was much to hide Our greed just made us all go on We try to hide what we fear inside Today is the end of tomorrow As the sea started rise And the land that we conquered It just washed away We all have tried To turn back the time It was all in vain [Chorus:] Now the day has come We are forsaken There's no time any more Life will pass us by We are forsaken Only ruins stay behind (Een hoop gebrabbel) Now the day has come We are forsaken this time Now the day has come We are forsaken There's no time any more Now the day has come, The day has come

7. Angels
Sparkling angel I believe You are my saviour In my time of need

Blinded by faith I couldn't hear All the whispers The warning's so clear I see the angels I'll lead them to your door There is no escape now Now mercy no more No remorse 'cause I still remember The smile when you tore me apart [Chorus:] You took my heart Deceived me right from the start You showed me dreams I wished they'd turn to real You broke the promise And made me realise It was all just a lie Sparkling angel Couldn't see Your dark intentions Your feelings for me Fallen angel Tell me why? What is the reason? The thorn in your eye I see the angels I'll lead them to your door There is no escape now No mercy no more No remorse 'cause I still remember The smile when you tore me apart [Chorus] Could have been forever Now we have reached the end This world may have failed you It doesn't give the reason why You could have chosen A different path of life

The smile when you tore me apart [Chorus:] You took my heart Deceived me right from the start You showed me dreams I wished they'd turn in to real You broke a promise And made me realise It was all just a lie Could have been forever Now we have reached the end

8. Memories
[Whisper] Memories, memories, memories In this world you tried Not leaving me alone behind There's no other way I'll pray to the gods: let him stay The memories ease the pain inside Now I know why [Chorus:] All of my memories Keep you near In silent moments Imagine you'd be here All of my memories Keep you near The silent whispers, silent tears Made me promise I'd try To find my way back in this life I hope there is away To give me a sign you're okay Reminds me again It's worth it all So I can go home [Chorus] Together in all these memories I see your smile All the memories I hold dear

Darling you know I love you till the end of time [Chorus]

9. Aquarius
I hear your whispers Break the silence And it calms me down Your taste on my lips Your salty kisses They say I'm seeking up the danger That one day you won't let me go (I'll drown, you'll take me down) [Chorus:] I need you Aquarius Enchanted I will have to stay. I feel you Aquarius 'cause you're the sea, set me free You call to me Aquarius (You call to me, you set me free) I relinquish To your powers From your grasp I just can't hide I missed the danger I had to conquer You made me feel alive They say I have to be aware That one day you won't let me go Take me down [Chorus] I long for you Aquarius I need to be with you again I fear you, Aquarius My destiny 'till the end [Chorus] [Chorus]

10. It's The Fear


It waits for the day, I will let it out To give it a reason, to give it its might [Pre-chorus:] I fear who I am becoming, I feel that I am losing the struggle within I can no longer restrain it, My strength, it is fading I have to give in [Chorus:] It's the fear, The fear of the dark It's growing inside of me They won, they will come to life Have to save, Save my beloved, There is no escaping Because my fate is horror and doom Hold down your head now, Just let me pass by Don't feed my fear, If you don't want it out [Pre-chorus] [Chorus] Long ago, it came to me and ever since that day, Infected with it's rage But it ends today [Chorus]

11. Somewhere
Lost in the darkness Hoping for a sign Instead there's only silence Can't you hear my screams? Never stop hoping Need to know where you are But one thing's for sure You're always in my heart

[Chorus:] I'll find you somewhere I'll keep on trying Until my dying day I just need to know Whatever has happened The truth will free my soul Lost in the darkness Tried to find your way home I want to embrace you And never let you go Almost hope you're in heaven So no one can hurt your soul Living in agony Cause I just do not know Where you are [Chorus] Wherever you are I won't stop searching Whatever it takes me to know [Chorus]

12. A Dangerous Mind


[Bonus track] I'm searching for answers 'cause something is not right. I follow the signs, I'm close to the fire. I fear that soon you'll reveal Your dangerous mind. [Chorus:] It's in your eyes, what's on your mind. I fear your smile and the promise inside. It's in your eyes, what's on your mind. I fear your presence, I'm frozen inside. I'm searching for answers Not questioned before.

The curse of awareness, There's no peace of mind. As your true colours show A dangerous sign. [Chorus 2:] It's in your eyes, what's on your mind. I see the truth that you've buried inside. It's in your eyes, what's on your mind. There is no mercy just anger I find. I just have know, while I still have time. Do I have to run, or hide away from you? [Chorus 2]

13. The Swan Song


[Bonus track] Winter has come for me, can't carry on. The Chains to my life are strong but soon they'll be gone. I'll spread my wings one more time. [Chorus:] Is it a dream? All the ones I have loved calling out my name. The sun warms my face. All the days of my life, I see them passing me by. In my heart I know I can let go. In the end I will find some peace inside. New wings are growing tonight. [Chorus] As I am soaring I'm one with the wind. I am longing to see you again, it's been so long. We will be together again. [Chorus]

14. Overcome
[Bonus track]

Where are the heroes I my time of need Is my crying abandoned? Or have they gone Oh no They just tend to stand Out of the rain Thinking but not acting That they're not to blame Falling and crawling A fight to stand up Memory still haunts me In the dead of night Over and over I felt so small But one day I'll be stronger And you better watch out [Chorus:] I will overcome In violence there's silence Oh no, It can't be undone I will overcome Knowing that I'm not the only one I will overcome It's the only way to carry on Where are the saviours Afraid of the toll Sorry do my nine inch nails Slash your soul? Such heroes Throwing stones Straight at the one Who is standing alone? Twisting and turning It's always the same The truth is never honest When you're to blame Pushing and pulling Never give in One day I wish You see you're not so beautiful within

[Chorus] Run and run Run and run [Chorus] I will overcome

15. Towards The End


[Bonus track] The turn against The world we know Now our destiny Will be decided We have to send our brothers in arms With pain in our heart We watched them go Will they return? Truth is we had no choice We'll try to shield those we can No better world Let this end Mothers cry Our boys die But we'll stand 'till the end

16. The Silence


[Bonus track]

17. Destroyed
[UK bonus track] I did my best to please you But my best was never good enough Somehow you're only able to see All I am not Did you ever look behind Aren't you afraid of the pieces you'll find

I have failed you But you have failed me too It's so easy to destroy and condemn The ones you do not understand Do you ever wonder if it's justified It's so easy to destroy and condemn The ones you do not understand In your life why didn't you ever try I close my eyes as I walk the thin line between love and hate For the person with the same blood in his veins You show no regrets About all the things you did or said I have failed you But believe me you failed me too It's so easy to destroy and condemn The ones you do not understand Do you ever wonder if it's justified It's so easy to destroy and condemn The ones you do not understand In your life why didn't you ever try It's so easy to destroy and condemn The ones you do not understand Do you ever wonder if it's justified It's so easy to destroy and condemn The ones you do not understand Do you ever wonder if it's justified

18. Jane Doe


[UK Bonus track] Run away, hide away The secrets in your mind Sacrificed just her life For a higher love No matter how many stones you put inside She always keeps on floating in your mind With every turn of your head you see her face again Until the end, over and over again Why, you just won't leave my mind Was this the only way I couldn't let you stay Told the truth she laughed at you Something snapped inside She had to go or they would know All you tried to hide The sins of your life are now catching up with you. You can't stay ahead, there's nothing you can do

With every turn of your head you see her face again Until the end, over and over again Why, you just won't leave my mind Was this the only way I couldn't let you stay Why, you just won't leave my mind Was this the only way I couldn't let you stay

1. Angels
Sparkling angel I believed You are my savior in my time of need. Blinded by faith I couldn't hear All the whispers, the warnings so clear. I see the angels, I'll lead them to your door. There's no escape now, No mercy no more. No remorse cause I still remember The smile when you tore me apart. You took my heart, Deceived me right from the start. You showed me dreams, I wished they turn into real. You broke a promise and made me realise. It was all just a lie. Sparkling angel, I couldn't see Your dark intentions, your feelings for me. Fallen angel, tell me why? What is the reason, the thorn in your eye? I see the angels, I'll lead them to your door There's no escape now

No mercy no more No remorse cause I still remember The smile when you tore me apart You took my heart, Deceived me right from the start. You showed me dreams, I wished they turn into real. You broke the promise and made me realise. It was all just a lie. Could have been forever. Now we have reached the end. This world may have failed you, It doesn't give you a reason why. You could have chosen a different path in life. The smile when you tore me apart. You took my heart, Deceived me right from the start. You showed me dreams, I wished they turn into real. You broke the promise and made me realise. It was all just a lie. Could have been forever. Now we have reached the end.

2. Say My Name
Say my name So I will know you're back you're here again For a while Oh let us share The memories that only we can share Together Tell me about The days before I was born How we were as children [Refrain:] You touch my hand These colors come alive In your heart and in your mind I cross the borders of time Leaving today behind to be with you again We breath the air

Do you remember how you used to touch my hair? You're not aware Your hands keep still You just don't know that I am here It hurts too much I pray now that soon you're released To where you belong [Refrain] Please say my name Remember who I am You will find me in the world of yesterday You drift away again Too far from where I am When you ask me who I am Say my name These colors come alive In your heart and in your mind I cross the borders of time Leaving today behind to be with you again Say my name

3. Forsaken
Now the day has come. We are forsaken this time. We lived our lives in our paradise, As gods we shaped the world around. No borderlines we'd stay behind, Though balance is something fragile. While we thought we were gaining, We'd turn back the tide, it still slips away. Our time has run out, our future has died, There's no more escape. Now the day has come, We are forsaken, There's no time anymore. Life will pass us by, We are forsaken, We're the last of our kind.

The sacrifice was much too high, Our greed just made us all go blind. We tried to hide what we feared inside. Today is the end of tomorrow. As the sea started rising, The land that we conquered just washed away. Although we all have tried to turn back the tide, It was all in vain. Now the day has come, We are forsaken, There's no time anymore. Life will pass us by,we are forsaken, Only ruins stay behind. Now the day has come. We are forsaken this time. Now the day has come, We are forsaken, There's no time anymore. Now the day has come. The day has come. The day has come.

4. The Promise
On behalf of her love She no longer sleeps Life had no longer meaning Nothing to make her stay She sold her soul away I held you tight to me You slipped away You promised to return to me And I believed, I believed After the night he died I wept my tears until they dried But the pain stayed the same I didn't want him to die all in vain I made a promise to revenge his soul in time I'll make them bleed down at my feet Sometimes I wonder

Could I have known about their true intentions? As the pain stayed the same I'm going to haunt them down all the way I made a promise to revenge his soul in time One by one they were surprised

1. All I Need (Single Version)


I'm dying to catch my breath Oh why don't I ever learn? I've lost all my trust, though I've surely tried to turn it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear me down You've opened the door now, don't let it close I'm here on the edge again I wish I could let it go I know that I'm only one step away from turning it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace

Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear it down, what's left of me Make my heart a better place I tried many times but nothing was real Make it fade away, don't break me down I want to believe that this is for real Save me from my fear Don't tear me down Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear it down, what's left of me Make my heart a better place Make my heart a better place

3. The Last Time (Demo Version)


For so long I've tried. Could not close my eyes. When you became a outcast in this life. Again and again I try to understand the demons inside your head, but the truth is you love them to death. Now, I know it's the last time I have tried to lift you up to make you fight. Nothing is ever easy in life. I can't change it if you don't have the will deep inside. I have been blind to how you justify everything that you've wasted in this life. Got lost in the illusion, I'd find a solution for the demons in your head, but the truth is you love them to death. Now, I know it's the last time I have tried to lift you up to make you fight.

Nothing is ever easy in life. I can't change it if you don't have the will deep inside. You can blame and you can hide behind what is wrong and what is right. Life is the choices we make I hope you'll awake before it's too late. Now, I know it's the last time I have tried to lift you up to make you fight. Nothing is ever easy in life. I can't change it if you don't have the will deep inside.

4. Frozen (Demo Version)


I can't feel my senses I just feel the cold All colors seem to fade away I can't reach my soul I would stop running, If knew there was a chance It tears me apart to sacrifice it all but I'm forced to let go Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do? Can't tell the reasons I did it for you When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you You say that I'm frozen but what can I do? I can feel your sorrow You won't forgive me, but I know you'll be all right It tears me apart that you will never know but I have to let go Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do? Can't tell the reasons I did it for you When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you You say that I'm frozen but what can I do? Everything will slip way Shattered peaces will remain When memories fade into emptiness Only time will tell its tale If it all has been in vain I can't feel my senses I just feel the cold Frozen... But what can I do ? Frozen...

Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do? Can't tell the reasons I did it for you When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you You say that I'm frozen, frozen...

5. Our Solemn Hour (Demo Version)


Sanctus Espiritus redeem us from our solemn hour Sanctus Espiritus insanity is all around us Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus! In my darkest hours I could not foresee That the tide could turn so fast to this degree Can't believe my eyes How can you be so blind? Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside? Time keeps on slipping away and we haven't learned So in the end now what have we gained? Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve, can we break free from chains of never-ending agony? Are they themselves to blame, the misery, the pain? Didn't we let go, allowed it, let it grow? If we can't restrain the beast which dwells inside it will find it's way somehow, somewhere in time Will we remember all of the suffering Cause if we fail it will be in vain Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve, can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

Your call is coming I'm dreaming away For what lies hidden It needs to be found

Sounds of freedom make me wanna try When the ghosts are found They will lead us to tomorrow Sounds of freedom make me wanna try Voices forgotten I hear them close by Ghosts from the past i can see through their eyes Are these the ancestors leaving me signs? Sounds of freedom make me wanna try When the ghosts are found They will lead us to tomorrow Sounds of freedom make me wanna try The sounds, they are all around Forces start moving out Taking sides, though there's so much That i need to know And soon it will be shown Sounds of freedom make me wanna try When the ghosts are found They will lead us to tomorrow Sounds of freedom make me wanna try When the ghosts are found, they will lead us to tomorrow When the ghosts are found, they will lead us to tomorrow If we could restart how it was before tomorrow.

Nothing's ever changed, you still turn away You've washed your hands, you've made that all too clear You just keep on living this lie You refuse to see, you're denying me the cross I bear but you don't seem to care Even Judas knew he had lied I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears Why have you waited to embrace me my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name my dear I'm sorry if you can't stand the naked truth All you see is how you want it to be So you keep on living your life Release me from this cross after all these years Oh call my name and help me with this weight Even though it comes far too late I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears Why have you waited to embrace me my dear Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name and I wonder, oh I wonder ... In my heart I still hope you will open the door You can purify it all, answer my call Why? Why? Why have you waited to embrace me my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name and I wonder, oh I wonder ...

1. The Howling
We've been seeing what you wanted, got us cornered right now Fallen asleep from our vanity, might cost us our lives I hear they're getting closer Their howls are sending chills down my spine And time is running out now They're coming down the hills from behind When we start killing It's all coming down right now From the nightmare we've created, I want to be awakened somehow When we start killing it all will be falling down From the Hell that we're in All we are is fading away When we start killing... We've been searching all night long but there's no trace to be found It's like they all have just vanished but I know they're around I feel they're getting closer Their howls are sending chills down my spine And time is running out now They're coming down the hills from behind When we start killing It's all coming down right now From the nightmare we've created I want to be awakened somehow When we start killing it all will be falling down

From the Hell that we're in All we are is fading away When we start killing... When we start killing... I feel they're getting closer Their howls are sending chills down my spine And time is running out now They're coming down the hills from behind The sun is rising The screams have gone Too many have fallen Few still stand tall Is this the ending of what we've begun? Will we remember what we've done wrong? When we start killing It's all coming down right now From the nightmare we've created I want to be awakened somehow When we start killing it all will be falling down From the Hell that we're in All we are is fading away When we start killing... When we start killing... When we start killing...

5. The Heart Of Everything


For the pain and the sorrow caused by my mistakes Won't repent to a mortal whom is all to blame Now I know I won't make it There will be a time we'll get back our freedom They can't break what's inside I'll face it 'cause it's the heart of everything Open up your eyes Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go Open up your eyes See what you've become, don't sacrifice It's truly the heart of everything Stay with me now I'm facing my last solemn hour Very soon I'll embrace you on the other side

Hear the crowd in the distance, screaming out my faith Now their voices are fading, I can feel no more pain I'll face it 'cause it's the heart of everything Open up your eyes Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go Open up your eyes See what you've become, don't sacrifice It's truly the heart of everything Open up your eyes Open up your eyes Open up your eyes Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go Open up your eyes See what you've become, don't sacrifice It's truly the heart of everything

6. Hand Of Sorrow
The child without a name grew up to be the hand To watch you, to shield you or kill on demand The choice he'd made he could not comprehend His blood a grim secret they had to command He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life He prayed for both but was denied So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind? So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise? Will all our sins be justified? The curse of his powers tormented his life Obeying the crown was a sinister price His soul was tortured by love and by pain He surely would flee but the oath made him stay He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life He prayed for both but was denied So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind? So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise? Will all our sins be justified?

Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be Still I'll be the hand that serves you Though you'll not see that it is me So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind? So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise? Will all our sins be justified?

7. The Cross
Nothing's ever changed, you still turn away You've washed your hands, you've made that all too clear You just keep on living this lie You refuse to see, you're denying me the cross I bear but you don't seem to care Even Judas knew he had lied I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears Why have you waited to embrace me my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name my dear I'm sorry if you can't stand the naked truth All you see is how you want it to be So you keep on living your life Release me from this cross after all these years Oh call my name and help me with this weight Even though it comes far too late I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears Why have you waited to embrace me my dear Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name and I wonder, oh I wonder ... In my heart I still hope you will open the door You can purify it all, answer my call Why? Why?

Why have you waited to embrace me my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name and I wonder, oh I wonder ... In my heart I still hope you will open the door You can purify it all, answer my call

8. Final Destination
I escaped my final moment But it's turning back at me On every corner I can feel it waiting Just a moment, no awareness I could easily slip away And then I'll be gone forever I'm searching, I'm fighting for a way to get through To turn it away It's waiting, always trying I feel the hands of fate, they're suffocating Tell me what's the reason Is it all inside my head Can't take it no more! All around me I see danger And it's closing in on me Every second I can hear it breathing I can't stand the fear inside me Cause it's leading me astray And it will be my ending I'm searching I'm fighting for a way to get through To turn it away It's waiting, always trying I feel the hands of fate, they're suffocating Tell me what's the reason Is it all inside my head Can't take it no more! But no one faced what's coming my way And I will let my fear fade away Whatever may be, I'll have to find out

It's waiting, always trying Feel the hands of fate, they're suffocating Tell me what's the reason Is it all inside my head Can't take it no more!

9. All I Need
I'm dying to catch my breath Oh why don't I ever learn? I've lost all my trust, though I've surely tried to turn it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear me down You've opened the door now, don't let it close I'm here on the edge again I wish I could let it go I know that I'm only one step away from turning it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear it down, what's left of me Make my heart a better place I tried many times but nothing was real Make it fade away, don't break me down I want to believe that this is for real Save me from my fear Don't tear me down Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place

Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear it down, what's left of me Make my heart a better place Make my heart a better place

10. The Truth Beneath The Rose


Give me strength to face the truth, the doubt within my soul No longer I can justify the bloodshed in his name Is it a sin to seek the truth, the truth beneath the rose? Pray with me so I will find the gate to Heaven's door I believed it would justify the means It had a hold over me Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been Forgive me my sins Pray for me cause I have lost my faith in holy wars Is paradise denied to me cause I can't take no more Has darkness taken over me, consumed my mortal soul All my virtues sacrificed, can Heaven be so cruel? I believed it would justify the means It had a hold over me Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been Forgive me my sins I'm hoping, I'm praying I won't get lost between two worlds For all I have seen the truth lies in between Give me the strength to face the wrong that I have done Now that I know the darkest side of me How can blood be our salvation And justify the pain that we have caused throughout the times Will I learn what's truly sacred? Will I redeem my soul, will truth set me free?

Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been Forgive me my sins

11. Forgiven
Couldn't save you from the start Love you so it hurts my soul Can you forgive me for trying again Your silence makes me hold my breath Time has passed you by Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own Here I am left in silence You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven I watched the clouds drifting away Still the sun can't warm my face I know it was destined to go wrong You were looking for the great escape To chase your demons away Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own And here I am left in silence You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven I've been so lost since you've gone Why not me before you? Why did fate deceive me? Everything turned out so wrong Why did you leave me in silence?

You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven

I know I'd better stop trying You know that there's no denying I won't show mercy on you now I know I should stop believing I know that there's no retrieving It's over now What have you done? What have you done now? I, I've been waiting for someone like you But now you are slipping away What have you done now? Why, Why does fate make us suffer There's a curse between us Between me and you What have you done? What have you done now? What have you done ?

What have you done now? Would you mind if I killed you? Would you mind if I tried to Cause you have turned into my worst enemy? You carry hate that I feel It's over now What have you done What have you done now I, I've been waiting for someone like you But now you are slipping away What have you done now?

2. Blue Eyes
Blue Eyes Blue eyes just smile to the world Full of dreams and with fascination Too soon she saw that her hands were chained and pulled without any freedom It's always the same, they fear no way out I cannot break it I can take it no more It's burning me up inside Lost all my tears, can't cry

No reason, no meaning Just hatred No matter how hard I try You fear the beast inside It's growing, it's waiting Just to hurt you This heart was hurt by the light and I see your world that tries to deny Now everything that I love has died or has been shattered to pieces It's always the same, they fear no way out I cannot break it I can take it no more Just to hurt you Just to hurt you Can't you see their eyes, what lies inside They've given up, they no longer shine Too soon they close with one last cry Before they turn to light Just to hurt you

1. Towards The End (Acoustic)


he turn against The world we know Now our destiny Will be decided We have to send our brothers in arms With pain in our heart We watched them go Will they return? Truth is we had no choice We'll try to shield those we can No better world Let this end Mothers cry Our boys die But we'll stand 'til the end

2. Stand My Ground (Acoustic)


I can see When you stay low nothing happens Does it feel right? Late at night Things I thought I put behind me Haunt my mind I just know there's no escape Now once it sets its eyes on you But I won't run, Have to stare it in the eye [Chorus:] Stand my ground, I won't give in No more denying, I've got to face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground It's all around Getting stronger, coming closer Into my world

I can feel That it's time for me to face it Can I take it? Though this might just be the ending Of the life I held so dear But I won't run, There's no turning back from here

3. Caged (Acoustic)
These are the darkest clouds To have surrounded me Now I find my self alone caught in a cage There's no flower to be found in here Not withering Or pale to me Everyone with a friendly face Seems to hide some secret inside He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind My heart is covered With thoughts entangled How could it ever have felt so real? Is there a place more lonely than I feel within? Could I have seen? Could I have known? I just took it as the truth Everyone with a friendly face Seems to hide some secret inside He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind Always there to remind me It keeps me from believing That someone might be there

Who'll free me and never ever leave me

4. All I Need (Acoustic)


I'm dying to catch my breath Oh why don't I ever learn? I've lost all my trust, though I've surely tried to turn it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear me down You've opened the door now, don't let it close I'm here on the edge again I wish I could let it go I know that I'm only one step away from turning it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear it down, what's left of me Make my heart a better place I tried many times but nothing was real Make it fade away, don't break me down I want to believe that this is for real Save me from my fear Don't tear me down Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear it down, what's left of me

Make my heart a better place Make my heart a better place

5. Frozen (Acoustic)
I can't feel my senses I just feel the cold All colors seem to fade away I can't reach my soul I would stop running, If knew there was a chance It tears me apart to sacrifice it all but I'm forced to let go Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do? Can't tell the reasons I did it for you When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you You say that I'm frozen but what can I do? I can feel your sorrow You won't forgive me, but I know you'll be all right It tears me apart that you will never know but I have to let go Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do? Can't tell the reasons I did it for you When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you You say that I'm frozen but what can I do? Everything will slip way Shattered peaces will remain When memories fade into emptiness Only time will tell its tale If it all has been in vain I can't feel my senses I just feel the cold Frozen... But what can I do? Frozen... Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do?

6. Somewhere (Acoustic)
[feat. Anneke van Giersbergen] Lost in the darkness Hoping for a sign

Instead there's only silence Can't you hear my screams? Never stop hoping Need to know where you are But one thing's for sure You're always in my heart [Chorus:] I'll find you somewhere I'll keep on trying Until my dying day I just need to know Whatever has happened The truth will free my soul Lost in the darkness Tried to find your way home I want to embrace you And never let you go Almost hope you're in heaven So no one can hurt your soul Living in agony Cause I just do not know Where you are [Chorus] Wherever you are I won't stop searching Whatever it takes me to know [Chorus]

7. Pale (Acoustic)
The world seems not the same Though I know nothing has changed It's all my state of mind I can't leave it all behind I have to stand up to be stronger [Chorus:] I have to try To break free From the thoughts in my mind Use the time that I have

I can say goodbye Have to make it right Have to fight 'Cause I know in the end it's worthwhile That the pain that I feel slowly fades away It will be all right I know I should realize Time is precious It is worthwhile Despite how I feel inside Have to trust it'll be alright Have to stand up to be stronger [Chorus] Oh, this night is too long Have no strength to go on No more pain I'm floating away Through the mist I see the face Of an angel, calls my name I remember you're the reason I have to stay [Chorus]

8. What Have You Done (Acoustic)

9. Memories (Acoustic)
In this world you tried Not leaving me alone behind There's no other way I'll pray to the gods: let him stay The memories ease the pain inside Now I know why [Chorus:] All of my memories Keep you near In silent moments Imagine you'd be here All of my memories Keep you near The silent whispers, silent tears Made me promise I'd try To find my way back in this life I hope there is away To give me a sign you're okay Reminds me again It's worth it all So I can go home [Chorus] Together in all these memories I see your smile All the memories I hold dear Darling you know I love you till the end of time [Chorus]

10. Forgiven (Acoustic)


Couldn't save you from the start Love you so it hurts my soul Can you forgive me for trying again Your silence makes me hold my breath Time has passed you by Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own Here I am left in silence

You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven I watched the clouds drifting away Still the sun can't warm my face I know it was destined to go wrong You were looking for the great escape To chase your demons away Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own And here I am left in silence You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven I've been so lost since you've gone Why not me before you? Why did fate deceive me? Everything turned out so wrong Why did you leave me in silence? You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven

11. Utopia
[feat. Chris Jones] The burning desire To live and roam free It shines in the dark And it grows within me You're holding my hand but you don't understand

So where I am going, you wont be in the end I'm dreaming in colors Of getting the chance Of dreaming of trying the perfect romance The search of the door, to open your mind In search of the cure of mankind Help us were drowning So close up inside Why does it rain, rain, rain down on utopia? Why does it have to kill the ideal of who we are? Why does it rain, rain, rain down on utopia? How will the lights die down, telling us who we are? I'm searching for Answers, not given for free Your hurting inside, is there life within me? You're holding my hand but you don't understand So you're taking the road all alone in the end I'm dreaming in colors, no boundaries are there I'm dreaming the dream, and I'll sing to share In search of the door, to open your mind In search of the cure of mankind Help us were drowning So close up inside Why does it rain, rain, rain down on utopia Why does it have to kill the ideal of who we are? Why does it rain, rain, rain, down on utopia? And when the lights die down, telling us who we are Why does it rain, rain, rain down on utopia Why does it have to kill the ideal of who we are? Why does it rain, rain, rain down on utopia And when the lights die down, telling us who we are Why does it rain?

1. Why Not Me
Oh, some may call it a curse A life like mine But others, a blessing Its certainly a lonely life But a fulfilling one at best Its my cross to bear And I bear it gladly Someone has to take a stand against evil Why should it not be me?

2. Shot In The Dark


Ive been left out alone like a damn criminal Ive been praying for help 'cause I cant take it all Im not done, Its not over. Now Im fighting this war since the day of the fall And Im desperately holding on to it all But Im lost Im so damn lost Oh I wish it was over, And I wish you were here Still Im hoping that somehow Cause your soul is on fire A shot in the dark, What did they aim for when they missed your heart? I breathe underwater Its all in my hands But what can I do? Dont let it fall apart A shot in the dark [2x] In the blink of an eye I can see through your eyes

As Im lying awake Im still hearing the cries. And it hurts, Hurts me so bad. And Im wondering why I still fight in this life Cause Ive lost all my faith in this damn bitter strife And its sad Its so damn sad Oh I wish it was over, And I wish you were here Still Im hoping that somehow Cause your soul is on fire A shot in the dark, What did they aim for when they missed your heart? I breathe underwater Its all in my hands But what can I do? Dont let it fall apart A shot in the dark [5x] I feel you are fading away [4x] Cause your soul is on fire A shot in the dark, What did they aim for when they missed your heart? I breathe underwater Its all in my hands But what can I do? Dont let it fall apart Oh, your soul is on fire A shot in the dark, What did they aim for when they missed your heart? I breathe underwater Its all in my hands But what can I do? Dont let it fall apart A shot in the dark [5x]

3. In The Middle Of The Night


Ive been walking this road of desire, Ive been begging for blood on the wall. I dont care if Im playing with fire, Im aware that Im frozen inside. I have known all along.

So much more going on, no denying, But I know Im not standing alone. Youve been playing my mind through my wishes. You can feel that were haunting the truth. Don't know why, can't hold on, always losing control. In the middle of the night, I dont understand whats going on, Its a world gone astray. In the middle of the night, I cant let it out. Someone keeps searching And shatters your life. It will never be in vain In the middle of the night. No more tears, no, cause nothing else matters, Ive been closing my eyes for too long. Only vengeance will make me feel better, Theres no rest 'til I know that its done. Youve been playing my mind through my wishes. You can feel that were haunting the truth. Don't know why, can't hold on, always losing control (losing control). In the middle of the night, I dont understand whats going on Its a world gone astray. In the middle of the night, I cant let it out. Someone keeps searching And shatters your life. It will never be in vain In the middle of the night. In the middle of the night In the middle of the night In the middle of the night, I dont understand whats going on, Its a world gone astray. In the middle of the night, I cant let it out. Someone keeps searching And shatters your life. It will never be in vain In the middle of the night

4. Faster
I cant sleep cause it's burning deep inside Like gasoline on fire running wild No more fear cause Im getting closer now So unreal but I like it anyhow [Pre-chorus:] I go faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster. [Chorus:] And I cant live in a fairytale of lies And I cant hide from the feeling cause its right And I go faster and faster and faster and faster for life I cant live in a fairytale of lies I can feel that you mesmerize my heart I feel so free, Im alive, Im breaking out I wont give in, cause Im proud of all my scars And I can see Ive been wasting too much time [Pre-chorus and chorus] A fairytale of lies [Instrumental break] [Chorus] A fairytale of lies.

5. Fire And Ice


Every word youre saying is a lie Run away my dear But every sign will say your heart is deaf Bury all the memories Cover them with dirt Wheres the love we once had Our destinys unsure Why cant you see what we had Let the fire burn the ice Wheres the love we once had Is it all a lie? And I still wonder

Why heaven has died The skies are all falling Im breathing but why? In silence I hold on To you and I Closer to insanity Buries me alive Wheres the life we once had It cannot be denied Why cant you see what we had? Let the fire burn the ice Wheres the love we once had Is it all a lie? And I still wonder Why heaven has died The skies are all falling Im breathing but why? In silence I hold on To you and I You run away You hide away To the other side of your universe Where youre safe from all that hunts you down But the world has gone Where you belong And it feels too late so youre moving on Can you find your way back home? And I still wonder Why heaven has died The skies are all falling Im breathing but why? In silence I hold on To you and I Every word youre saying is a lie.

6. Iron
Left in the darkness Here on your own Woke up a memory Feeding the pain You cannot deny it There's nothing to say

It's all that you need to fire away Oh damn, the war is coming Oh damn, you feel you want it Oh damn, just bring it on today You can't live without the fire It's the heat that makes you strong 'Cause you're born to live and fight it all the way You can't hide what lies inside you It's the only thing you know You'll embrace it and never walk away Don't walk away Don't walk away Don't walk away Don't walk away Raised in this madness You're on your own It makes you fearless Nothing to lose Dreams are a drug here They get in your way That's what you need to fight day by day. Oh damn, the war is coming Oh damn, you feel you want it Oh damn, just bring it on today You can't live without the fire It's the heat that makes you strong 'Cause you're born to live and fight it all the way You can't hide what lies inside you It's the only thing you know You'll embrace it and never walk away Don't walk away (You need not fear us, Unless you are a Darkheart A vile one who preys on the innocent I promise You can't hide forever from the empty darkness For we will hunt you down like the animals you are And pull you into the very bowels of hell) Oh damn, the war is coming Oh damn, you feel you want it Oh damn, just bring it on today

You can't live without the fire It's the heat that makes you strong 'Cause you're born to live and fight it all the way You can't hide what lies inside you It's the only thing you know You'll embrace it and never walk away Don't walk away Don't walk away Don't walk away Don't walk away

7. Where Is The Edge?


In the shadow awaits a desire But you know that you cant realize And the pressure will just keep on rising Now the heat is on It's too late, there is no way around it, You have seen it yourself many times. In the end you will give up to fight it Unescapable 'Cause you're losing your mind and you're sleeping with wide-open eyes Where is the edge of your darkest emotions? Why does it all survive? Where is the light of your deepest devotions? I pray that it's still alive It's the rule that you live by and die for It's the one thing you cannot deny Even though you don't know what the price is, It is justified So much more that you've got now to fight for But it still doesn't change who you are There is no fear you'll ever give in to, You're untouchable 'Cause you're losing your mind and you're sleeping with wide-open eyes Where is the edge of your darkest emotions? Why does it all survive? Where is the light of your deepest devotions? I pray that it's still alive You can't stop yourself, Don't want to feel

Don't want to see what you've become You can't walk away from who you are Never give in Where is the edge of your darkest emotions? Why does it all survive? Where is the light of your deepest devotions? I pray that it's still alive

8. Sinad
Ive got to try its not over yet No signals of life have you left My heart is bleeding just for you Bleeds for only you And it hurts to know the truth Are you looking for saviour Chasing a dream? Love turned to hate Now I'm crossing the borders Sealing our fate But I'm not afraid Oh Sinad, For the first time Life is gonna turn around I'm telling you You will like it, I know Oh Sinad, It's the first time Only you can set it free Oh Sinad Come break away with me This second chance, I know, won't last But it's OK, got no regrets And I, I feel the end near, I'm no fool Getting closer But I'm doing what I should I've been drowning in sorrow Chasing tomorrow, running away Now you're crossing the borders Sealing tomorrow But you're not afraid Oh Sinad,

For the first time Life is gonna turn around I'm telling you You will like it, I know Oh Sinad, It's the first time Only you can set it free Oh Sinad Come break away with me I've been drowning in sorrow Chasing tomorrow, running away Now you're crossing the borders Sealing tomorrow But you're not afraid Oh Sinad, For the first time Life is gonna turn around I'm telling you You will like it... Oh Sinad, For the first time Life is gonna turn around I'm telling you You will like it, I know Oh Sinad, It's the first time Only you can set it free Oh Sinad Come break away with me.

9. Lost
My hope is on fire My dreams are for sale I dance on a wire I don't want to fail her I walk against the stream Far from what I believe in I run towards the end Trying not to give in She's lost in the darkness Fading away I'm still around here

Screaming her name She's haunting my dreamworld Trying to survive My heart is frozen I'm losing my mind Help me, I'm buried alive Buried alive I'm burning the bridges And there's no return I'm trying to reach her I feel that she yearns I walk against the stream Far from what I believe in I run towards the end Trying not to give in She's lost in the darkness Fading away I'm still around here Screaming her name She's haunting my dreamworld Trying to survive My heart is frozen I'm losing my mind Help me, I'm buried alive Buried alive I tried to revive what's already drowned They think I'm a fool who can't realize Hope plays a wicked game with the mind 'Cause I thought that love would bind I cannot revive what's already drowned She won't come around She's lost in the darkness Fading away I'm still around here Screaming her name She's haunting my dreamworld Trying to survive My heart is frozen I'm losing my mind Help me, I'm buried alive Buried alive

10. Murder
I've been around these vicious lives too Too long to be neglecting the truth I'm getting closer and I'm fully armed. I'm about to haunt you down through The big black hole right behind you And I'm about to cut your wings away 'Cause I've been finding out Where you've broken in And I will take you out When I close you in I'm killing them all I put my soul on the line I purify sins That I committed in life I'll follow them all And I'll be bringing them down Wherever they go I'm right behind There's nowhere to go Your head on the line There is no rope You're running out of time So where will you go When I will murder your soul? I'm about to do it your way I will make your world unsafe I never thought you'd get this far it's insane You don't believe what all the signs say I don't believe in Judgment day But you won't be leaving here unharmed 'Cause I've been finding out Where you've broken in And I will take you out When I close you in I'm killing them all I put my soul on the line I purify sins That I committed in life I'll follow them all And I'll be bringing them down

Wherever they go I'm right behind There's nowhere to go Your head on the line There is no rope You're running out of time So where will you go When I will murder your soul? You can't feel the pain I scream in vain You sink away To the bottom You can't break your chains Break away from here. I'm killing them all I put my soul on the line I purify my sins That I committed in life I'll follow them all And I'll be bringing them down Wherever they go I'm right behind There's nowhere to go Your head on the line There is no rope You're running out of time So where will you go When I will murder your soul?

11. A Demon's Fate


Ohhohoho Youll burn this time Seeing the violence It's feeding my mind No one is saving you How can you find a heaven in this hell? Leave it behind Hearing your silence It screams our goodbye Cannot believe it's an eye for an eye Let us go to waste Angels have faith

I don't want to be a part of his sin I don't want to get lost in his world I'm not playing this game When the shadows remain in the light of day On the wings of darkness he'll retaliate He'll be falling from grace 'Til the end of all his days From the ashes and hate It's a cruel demon's fate On the wings of darkness He's returned to stay There will be no escape 'Cause he's fallen far from grace Ohhohoho What have you done? Is this what you wanted? What have you become? Your soul's not forsaken You're walking alone From heaven into hell. Now you know Your way in this madness Your powers have gone Your chains have been broken You've suffered so long You will never change. Angels have faith I don't want to be a part of his sin I don't want to get lost in his world I'm not playing this game When the shadows remain in the light of day On the wings of darkness He'll retaliate He'll be falling from grace 'Til the end of all his days From the ashes and hate It's a cruel demon's fate On the wings of darkness He's returned to stay There will be no escape 'Cause he's fallen far from grace

Angels have faith I don't want to be a part of his sin I don't want to get lost in his world I'm not playing this game When the shadows remain in the light of day On the wings of darkness He'll retaliate He'll be falling from grace 'Til the end of all his days From the ashes and hate It's a cruel demon's fate On the wings of darkness He's returned to stay There will be no escape 'Cause he's fallen far from grace Oh oh oh oh [4x]

12. Stairway To The Skies


Seven seconds 'til the rise Can't believe I'm still alive And heaven was waiting for me I thought this would be the end But I know you'll understand All that is keeping me here I dream of a stairway to the skies My angel is coming down from heaven to take me I reach out but then you fade away Whenever you call for me Know that I'm only one step behind My senses tell me I have changed But one thing still remains I'm torn and the hate's still aching I slowly start to realize We won't reunite I still have to march on through I dream of a stairway to the skies My angel is coming down from heaven to take me I reach out but then you fade away Whenever you call for me

Know that I'm only one step behind Is it a curse or a virtue? Have I been blinded by regret? Perdition awaits My soul is at stake Will I find a stairway to the skies in the end? I dream of a stairway to the skies My angel is coming down from heaven to take me I reach out but then you fade away Whenever you call for me Know that I'm only one step behind Know that I'm only one step behind

13. I Dont Wanna

[iTunes bonus track] Ye-ye-ye-ye-yeah ohhhh yeah ohhh Ye-ye-ye-ye-yeah ohhhh ohhh [2x] She sang for you last night, she heard you were calling, Drowning in tears a thousand times. Your spirit was floating, your spirit was searching On a cloud of dreams.

[iTunes bonus track] Youre determined by faith You pretend to make up You lay out your case like the enemy But all that you got through dirty white lies Cant find the damned correct way of blaming me for your crimes Wont you talk to me Dont laugh and run away Im onto you, yesterday with empty eyes I dont know where Im going in search for answers I dont know who Im fighting I stand with empty eyes Youre like a ghost within me whos draining my life Its like my soul is see through Right through my empty eyes Im about to give in Got nowhere to go Afraid of the sense Im holding on Theres no other way No doubt in the end But I aint got a thing to lose Nothing to defend Wont you talk to me Dont laugh and run away Im onto you, yesterday With empty eyes I dont know where Im going In search for answers

I dont know who Im fighting I stand with empty eyes Youre like a ghost within me whos draining my life Its like my soul is see through Right through my empty eyes Ohh, ohh please wont you give in to me Wont you finally speak true from lie Youre determined by faith You pretend to make up You lay out your case like the enemy like the enemey With empty eyes I dont know where Im going in search for answers I dont know who Im fighting I stand with empty eyes Youre like a ghost within me whos draining my life Its like my soul is see through Right through my empty eyes
