01. Dark Shadows

Instrumental

02. Forsaken Horizon

A glance back
A glance into the now
Tears sweeten the day
But the aftertaste is bitter

Here we go
Where are the good old times?
Where is my dependence?

In your presence my memories swallow me
Moment for moment you throw me back
A new way, the same paths, old fears
I'm the tool of my demons

In your presence my memories swallow me
Moment for moment you throw me back
A new way, the same paths, old fears
I'm the tool of my demons
They hide the depths of my soul, in darkness

(I'm not ready for this way, to open up, to give)

I cannot be what I am
Fill me with new hope

Let me go before I end.
I cannot be what I am
Fill me with new hope.

In your presence my memories swallow me
Moment for moment you throw me back
A new way, the same paths, old fears
I'm the tool of my demons
They hide the depths of my soul, in darkness

Fill me with new hope

03. Storm Of Rage

Walls collapse onto me, I ride the storm of rage
A mistake became a chain reaction and the reflection falls upon me

It's time for change, understanding and faith are what friends are about
But on every corner disappointment (is waiting
Every wall would have understood me better)
I am cold, I stand alone and all that remains is the hope for help

The anger is strong and threatens to destroy me
Because what was will never be again

Too much has happened and the mind becomes dull
It is the tragedy of time, a sea of tears for grief

But from the shadows of my tears, of my past
You come and give me your hand, tame my anger
My tears fade and together we fight as friend
Together we fight as friend for (the) time.

But from the shadows of my tears, of my past
You come and give me your hand, tame my anger
My tears fade
The anger is strong and threatens to destroy me
Because what was will never be againand together we fight as friend

04. Vicious Cricle

Every day I see your face
Every day I die
Every day I feel your breath
Every day I'm born again
You give me joy, but my thanks are just pain

And out of fear I pull myself loose again

I die for you
I die

You are everything I need, what I desire
Every day I see your face
Every day I die
Every day I feel your breath
Every day I'm born again
You give me joy, but my thanks are just pain

You are everything I need, what I desire
But will I ever understand?
Come on!

I die for you
I die

Please forgive my faults,
Maybe one day I will realize what you mean (to me),
I hope it won't be too late

Every time I cry,
I feel your lies
Every time I die,
I see your eyes.

05. Bad Dream

Oh dark night, in silence
Broken ban, shackles of fear,
I lie there, flat and merely
The valley lies deep
Staggering in the past

Shadows hide danger and feed me in the coldness,
I don't see myself,
Don't look at me,
You would burn

Don't look at me,
You would burn
As my house lies empty

As my house lies empty and
I float against the time,
Come here, come in,
Burn for my soul.

Burn for my soul.

06. The Seventh Soul

I travelled across the edges of my soul
Add it doesn't seem any better when I cross the border

The world falls

I often felt this sorrow
I often stand alone
Dipping and diving to see the bottom
But where are the lines that divide...

Confidential sins have already taken my so called freedom
And every choice I made framed my so called future.

The world falls to pieces but every sunset is
the rebirth of a new experience.

I often felt this sorrow
I often stand alone

I no longer care about the way I'm gone
Burning like a fire to smother
In the end, wasting time
While I'm expecting death.

07. Scream From The Abyss

Come on, tell me who you really are
Stop with your lies
I've looked behind the mask
And now your time is over
Day by day deceived
You blinded my senses
You have never been a friend

Who sows hate shall harvest pain.

Without scruples you've driven me to the point I am standing at
Now I jump "somersault backwards"
And push you into the depth that you've created yourself

Now bear your own consequences,
Feel the sorrow that you have imposed upon me,
Feel the pain and scream from the abyss of your malice,
Nobody will help you

Nobody will help you

Who sows hate shall harvest pain.

08. Detect Your Liberty

Look into the wide, wild liberty
Look well, it's reality

Close your eyes and turn loose,
All burden is impulse
Drop the anger, the hate you cherish
Turn loose, cry on me, let go, let all go

Look into the wide, wild liberty
Look well, it's reality

I hold your hand and lead you
we're melt together, becoming one
and we get the power to cry

Scoop for your life, cry, detect your liberty
Fight for your freedom,
Freedom is life, burn down your walls.

Look into the wide, wild liberty
Look well, it's reality

Fight for your freedom,
Freedom is life, burn down your walls.

09. Fire Is My Witness

A new day, a new struggle
Blank walls scream narrowness

But I'm my own prison
Go, run rush into the woods

The vast unknown spurs on my will to fight
The energy, the magic of silence and I am immortal

My eyes become heavy, the mind porous
Fire in the convergence

The demon shall burn, the fire is my witness
A final scream, a final tear and I am free.

An inner force calls out my name and says,
Everything is gone, everything is done

The voice sounds familiar
But my body is captured in fear
And the light leaves my way

Fear is hiding in the shadows
But I am the force and I light my fire

10. Between The Worlds

Deeply hidden in the deepest wood
Black is the night

The owls are singing between the worlds
The circle closes, the cycle of fire opens it's doors
The guard between the shadows searches for fear
(to broken souls he reaches out his hand and leads the
way into the night)

Pain shouts you down

Pain shout you down
Fire walk with me...

Pain shouts you down

You've split and I spit on you
(call my name and I'll catch you
carry my ring and) I will kill you.

11. A Piece Of My Life

I feel, breathe, live alone with my love
I gave it to you, I should have known
Reality will never be a dream!

In my dreams I walk around
In the darkness of my ashes,
Always following your light
I feel no fear, cause your fire gives me safety

I feel no fear, cause your fire gives me safety

My fire burns deep and ardent
but I radiate just coldness and hopeless helplessness,
Awkward, naive like a child

Everyday I fell reality, the reflection of the wide void
I don't want to live, just want dream!
(my fire burns deep and ardent)

Come on and play with me.

I feel no fear, cause your fire gives me safety

12. Everlasting

This one will not change
Turn down that fad again
Complacency, overcome, overdone

Everlasting
I have won
No second chance
It has just begun

I will not become what I despise
I found a reason
Your truth's a lie

We are still waiting

Struggle to overcome generations of second hand liars
Struggle to overcome the past mistakes...

Everlasting
I have won
No second chance
It has just begun

Stuck down in convenience, tradition, chosen way
Who describes, who decides our idea of fun?

Directed, attached
Reason will overcome the bounds of discomfort
