01. Leading On

Inspiration
Introspection
Keep on drilling round and round.
Incarnations
Circumspection
Sending shockwaves through the ground

The power got so close to me
Changing my dreams and my hopes
Time to remember the tide will return
Bringing together a storm!

Let it come out and I'm leading on
Just for a while and the stars will burn!
Let it come out and I'm leading on
just for one night and the skies will burn
Oh they'll burn!

Tonight, it descends a new reason
That thunders inside us intensely
Under the moonlight. It's reaching out
And you'll see:
You're making a final decision
Evoking the might and the fury
Drowning together back to Earth's womb...

The power got so close to me
Changing my dreams and my hopes.
Time to remember the tide will return
Bringing together a storm!

Let it come out and I'm leading on
Just for a while and the stars will burn
Let it come out and I'm leading on
Just for one night and the skies will burn oh they'll burn!

02. I Will Return

And If I tell you that our hearts are free again
You'll know I will return

When you hide yourself away
You know you're pretending
When you shed your feelings
When you let then down

Many times in life we stray
We're seeking an exit
The solitude is leading to a final call

Will you hide in the sea?
Will you lay all your sorrow on me?

And if I tell you that our minds are free again
You'll know I will return

So many stars are lightning up along the way
You'll know I will return
Back forever

I remember the first time
I dream to be over

I believed in demons, I believed in saints
Now we see what we became
The dream was forever

Since we know the path we won't miss match again
I will rise from the sea
I will take you forever in me

And If I tell you that our hearts are free again
You'll know I will return

So many stars are born each in everyday
You know I will return
Back forevermore

The dream was forever
We won't miss match again
I will rise from the sea
I will take you forever in me

And If I tell you that our hearts are free again
You'll know I will return

So many stars are born each in everyday
You know I will return

Back forevermore

03. When The Sun Cried Out

It was a day when the sun cried out
it was a moment to burden the doubt
whatever lingers will never reveal
whatever leftover wishes conceal and it's clear

Like the rain:all my fears define who I am
and I hear loud and long, everywhere, a mythical song

Hung in the sky, a lonely star
caught in the twilight it dances apart
stuck at the gates where the dead stepped
in a subtle hollow spreads out from within and I see

All the way what my eyes could never convey
and it's near,closer now everywhere,a mystical sound

Oh... let me know don't fly away, I'm here
I need to know when will the rain pour down again
coming down over us,washing the past with a smile

To the top of the hill
reach out the sky awake from the dream
now I know we'll fly away
we're free here we go
the falling rain will come again
no matter where or when
it will pour down in the end.

04. Mentalize

Transforming what's invisible
To controvert the physical
A blinding ray across the dark
In outerspace
A veils of sparks

The surging particles align
Quantum reaction in the night
Converting matter into light

Hear an S.O.S
Drawn inside the torrent
Fear contains a quest
Now the unbearable unveils

Never think you'd run away or neglect your pain
Primal forces spin around
Magnitude reveals a plan
Anything leads to the edge
Have you ever tried?

Nothing but a state of mind
Just mentalize
Just mentalize

A magic echoes everyday
keeps emanating from the brain
Converting matter into light
The will prevails over the time

Send an S.O.S
Drawn inside the torrent
faith contains a quest
The unbearable unveils

Never think you'd run away or neglect your pain
Primal forces spin around
Magnitude reveals a plan
Anything leads to the edge
Have you ever tried?

Nothing but a state of mind

Never think you'd run away or neglect your pain
Primal forces spin around
Anything leads to the edge
Have you ever tried?

Drawing near
Mentalize!

05. Back To You

Sometimes you've been searching for a mend
Sometimes you keep hoping instead
But what you don't see
Is the way things turn
Just to remember how far you've gone
Just to remember how far

Hush sweet darling
Rest your head
Keep on dreaming
Beg for more...

somedays seem so fearless
But too soon they're over
It's when all the pain hits back inside
You're tied in your ordinary thoughts
As time goes by...

rest your head
Keep on dreaming so

All over now
Watch overhead
Nothing left but
Some painfull wounds
That won't heal away
Till you can touch all the truth

Hush sweet darling
Raise your head
If you think
That nothing's over yet
Then you need to understand
Every tale has an end!

All over now
Watch overhead
Nothing left but
Some open wounds
That won't heal away
Till you can see all the truth

All over now
Till one day
Life smiles back...
To you!

06. Mirror Of Me

I never thought I feel a whim
slipping through my hands
the morning light comes breaking in
as the blackness fades

No bad reflections can resist
the beginning of an age
a sentence for a crownless king
whose kingdom was a cage

Wonder again why
why should we miss the burning of the flame
wait for another sign of rising disorder
till the blade relieves the pain

Inside your eyes I see a mirror
you mesmerize and there's no error
myself in you to be continued
Inside your eyes I see a mirror of me!

I kept a token of my pleas
carved them into stone
but after sailing open seas
two became one

Wonder again why
why should we cease the spreading of the stain
wait for another sign of rising disorder
till the light 'cause again

Inside your eyes I see a mirror
you mesmerize and there's no error
myself in you to be continued
Inside your eyes I see a mirror of me!

07. Someone Else

Staring at the audience
Your head is a cage
Broken thought fly over
A familiar stage

Gathering the pieces of yourself
That you can't live without
It's only when you became someone else
That you can ease your mind
Always

Heart full of rancour
Has made yourself blue
Enlightened by darkness
The fear becomes true
Kept always pretending
That nothing's been done
If your burn with fire
With fire you'll get burnt!

Gathering the pieces of yourself
That you can't live without
It's only when you become someone else
That you can ease your mind
Always playing a role!

The action was so brilliant
The audience applauds!
You bend down your head and
Deflect any flaws
Inside your heart's freezing
Your mind is a cell
You've swallowed the fire
And fire was your spell

Gathering the pieces of yourself
That you can't live without
It's only when you become someone else
That you can ease your mind
Always playing a role!

08. Violence

Inside a nest we were born
there we grew up together
you flew away towards the sun
I rather stayed and wondered
why do we fear the storm?
why do we hate and suffer?
inside the heart the mystery lives on
inside the mind,it succumbs!

so, anywhere you go flowing with the stream
have a look inside and see
who in fact we are what you've done so far
with the time you let go

Violence and decadence
tragic routes that cross each other
no one cures the consequence
left behind by violence

Learn from your lessons my friend
and your heart will beat much stronger
for a man who looks out just dreams
but he who looks in awakens!

So, anywhere you go flowing with the stream
stuck within the realms of flesh
all we see is flesh longing for the next
episode of pain cause

Violence and decadence
tragic routes that cross each other
no one cures the consequence
left behind by violence

09. Myriad

Among the myriad of green
another grief has been heard today
it flew tearing out again
all the way through the landscapes of light
'till the dawning is killing the night

And how much time will be left
to paint the blue on the firmament
and nothing will be changed
nothing else will resist without care
and the last regret harder to bear

Who said you're invincible
is not at your side now, not at your side now
somedays we're invisible, no one can see us
out in the myriad
your prayers cannot prevent
what's meant to be broken,
it's gotta be broken
it's not just a miracle
consider it a virtue to be caught in the myriad...

You made your way to the light
and now no reason retrocede
but once it starts to burn
feels so useless to capture the fire, oh oh
and nature is ready for war!
awake again it's all inside of you
this feeling has to stand
the coldest winds that freeze and bind you
you're about to see the true face of nature
the selfish won't be spared succumb in the end that's all they search for!

Who said you're invincible
is not at your side now, not at your side now
somedays we're invisible, no one can see us
out in the myriad
your prayers cannot prevent
what's meant to be broken,
it's gotta be broken
it's not just a miracle
consider it a virtue to be caught in the myriad...

10. Powerstream

Do you remember, not too long ago
the cherry tree blossomed in vain?
it was so hazy, yet hard to forget
now all seems to happen again

With the power of your mind
no desire is denied

It's a power stream you conceive your dreams
in world you'd never say no
there's a place to go land of miracles
where the feeling never went wrong, no no no no

Time is scare now,you better sleep
forget all the crosses beared
and though you keep on dreaming,your life is for real
all you need to do now is dare

With the power of your mind
every longing can be defined...

It's a power stream you conceive your dreams
in world you'd never say no
there's a place to go land of miracles
where the feeling never went wrong, no no no no

11. Don't Despair

Before the rays of light
Into a fading bright
Riled up by such a thrill again
I just keep still, don't move
The reason can't improve
A scene unfolding in my mind

Into the light I'm falling
Nobody turns to hear cries
Climbing the highest peak of pain
A reason to stay?

Can't stand the pressure of
The pleasures that I bought
They promised I'd be free someday!!
They told me: "Don't despair"
But then now who'd expect
A phantom shadowing my nights

Into the nightmare, running
Somebody, please, set me right
Offer some kindness, no domain
A reason to stay

Oh, waiting for the sun
No wonder why our lives
Were waiting just to run
Don't need you by my side to
hang together on the ropes
Won't you get out of the way?
I've got to go!

Before the coming fight
You need to stay alive
Riled up by such a thrill again!

Into the nightmare, running
Somebody, please, set me right
Offer some kindness, no domain
A reason to stay

Oh, just waiting for the sun
No wonder why our lives
Were waiting just to run
Don't need you by my side
to tell me it's alright, no more...
Won't you get out of the way?
Oh, waiting for the sun...
From this day on, I'm freed forevermore
Don't need you by my side to
hang together on the ropes
Come on, get out of the way
I've got to go!!!

13. A Lapse In Time

I've never been
The ordinary man
The world begin
Like every story does my friend

I won't come down
To where i was back then
And nice mirage of love
Has matter single in my heart, my friend

But when the white fog descends
Over the meadows of light
And when the milking way descends
And shatters the meadows of light
It's time to stand up, stand up and walk
Walk all alone, down the same road

I could feel again
Cause i long for the answers lost
And I'd change everything
If i could have a lapse in time

And i could feel again
Before going insane for good
I would change all mistakes of mine
With just a lapse in time
