Broken Dagger - Into Madness lyrics



Tracks



01. Embrace Insanity

Ever get the feeling that your mind's racing,
But you fear the thoughts are not your own?
Suffering as you don't know what it is you're facing
How can you be sure what's going on?

How many times can I ignore the screaming voices?
How long can I pretend everything's alright?
To be set free I must relax and let go of my fears
Why not give in and accept my destiny?

Voices inside telling me what to think,
Exhausted from fighting I have to give in!

Stand Aside!
And let the demons conquer
and embrace insanity
Left behind!
You must sacrifice your own thought
And embrace insanity

How many times can I ignore the screaming voices?
How long can I pretend everything's alright?
To be set free I must relax and let go of my fears
Why not give in and accept my destiny?

No use in fighting a war I can't win
It's time to surrender, time to give in!

Stand Aside!
And let the demons conquer
and embrace insanity
Left behind!
You must sacrifice your own thought
And embrace insanity


Thoughts are rushing through your head you feel invaded
Unfamiliar feelings take control
Nervous, trembling, you can not control emotions
Fighting something that can not be seen

Voices inside telling me what to think,
Exhausted from fighting I have to give in!
There's No use in fighting a war I can't win
It's time to surrender, time to give in!

02. Flying Free

Trapped inside your world within
Your life seems so blank
Waiting to break free again
Willing to sacrifice
Your world is seemingly a bliss
Gone astray again
Your will has been taken away
As you dream of when...

Arisen in the shadows
Awakened from the cold
Your might breeds dreams of freedom
Arisen in the shadows
Awakened from the cold
And you dream of when...

Searching still to find the path out
From your world within
As the dawn gives birth to a new day
You Start to hope
Still trying to find a way
Back to Sanity
Dreams and hope keep you alive
As you dream of when...

You're flying free like an eagle in the sky
Soaring high whit the wind beneath your wings
You're flying free like an eagle in the sky
The clouds move aside as the greet their new king

Arisen in the shadows
Awakened from the cold
Your might breeds dreams of freedom
Arisen in the shadows
Awakened from the cold
And you dream of when...

You're flying free like an eagle in the sky
Soaring high whit the wind beneath your wings
Fly away, out through your window
Fly away, towards the stars

03. The Sun Is Setting

Looking out the window I see
The future staring right at me
Trying to hide behind the lies
And promises of what to be
But soon the darkness takes control
The sun is setting upon me
Something inside me is screaming
What is going on?

Feeling trapped within myself
I'm haunted by my own thoughts
Trying to hide them deep down below
They're eating me from inside

Trying to find a way to hide from my thoughts
To bury them inside
It only delays what's bound to happen in the end
So I am searching

Searching for a way to let go, a way to forget...
To simply leave behind and never ever look back again
I know it will be hard, but still I have to try
To simply leave behind and never ever look back again

On the surface I might be calm
It seems I live without remorse
And even though I feel so much pain
I never let it show
But soon the darkness takes control
The sun is setting upon me
Something inside me is screaming
Leave me alone!

Now as the future walks away
And leaves me standing here
Leaving me in the past
That I'm trying so hard to forget
What's burning me from inside?
Please let the fire out!

Feeling trapped within myself
I'm haunted by my own thoughts
Trying to hide them deep down below
And never look back again!

04. Kiss Of A Broken Dagger

A vicious hunter, out on a quest
You never sleep, you never rest
But there is something haunting your mind
Oh, can it be are you loosing this time?

In the end you will know
How it feels to be a slave
And to be kissed
By a broken dagger

Watch your back!
You'll never see the attack!
You will be stabbed in the back!
By a broken dagger
In the end
The dagger will ascend
And send you to your knees
To kiss the broken dagger!

Running away won't do you no good
Cause the dagger will find you
And send you to your knees
The masters will tell you
What needs to be done
And you will obey like the dog...
You are!

In possession of the forbidden treasure
Torturing, killing for your own pleasure
But soon enough the tables will turn
It's your time to die! your time to learn!

05. Red Nightfall

See on the black ship,
See all men of glory
The white tree has risen
The stars and crown of Elendil

Darkness was broken
Hope returning to the fair
The king has fallen down,
But dawn comes in nights of despair

Bloodred's the river
The clash of weapons in the air
To lords and lowly
Death comes bearing a failing light

Up the river it came
Cursed be the wind
The last of life's will, lost!
At sight of the black sails

The last stand he gathered
Mighty words he spoke
"now for wrath!
"now for ruin!
"and a red nightfall!"

To the walls! to the walls!
Come back before hope is gone
The city will fall!

See on the black ship
See all men of glory
The white tree has risen
The stars and crown of Elendil

In the last stand he cried
Of joy and newborn hope
For the battle turned
And the foe defeated in a
Red nightfall

06. The Illussion Of Faith

Unable to think for myself
Though I'd like believe that I can
But deep down inside I know
I am not the one in charge

Reaching out for someone
Someone to guide me through life
To show me the way I should live
My life without having to think

Power of will left behind
Like a dog being dragged by it's leach
Forgetting that they have a will
Of there own...

But sometimes life can be tough
And we need something to fall back on
Something to take our mind of the pain
Of living each day...

Almighty god show me the way
Feeble minded!
Give me a sign and I will obey
My wish is your law!

Illusion of faith
Looking for answer
Like a cloak for your eyes
Giving you shelter while holding you trapped
Illusion of faith
You cant trust the illusion
The illusion of faith

Letting yourself be guided,
Just like a leaf in the wind
Your faith is holding you blinded
As you live another day

Your mind is filled with confusion
You have no will of your own
Will you ever get out of this prison?
Will you ever regain control?
