Tracks



01. The End Of It All

I see you wander
So lost and alone
You falter on the
Darkest of roads

Let us wait for a way now
You're too far from home
No longer careful wherever I roam

This is the path to the end of it all
It goes on and on and on
Goes on and on and on

This is the darkness at the end of the world
It lingers on and on and on
Lingers on and on and on

You're going under
Life's pulling you down
Life's making you choke
Life's making you drown

Get away from the pain now
Consuming your soul
I see you fall
I see you lose all control

This is the path to the end of it all
It goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on

This is the darkness at the end of the world
It lingers on and on and on
Lingers on and on and on

This is the path to the end of it all
It goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on

This is the darkness at the end of the world
It lingers on and on and on
Lingers on and on and on

02. Fallen Angel

I've always felt so cold inside, clinging on to life
I've always felt at one with the night, fading deep inside
Winter winds are blowing through my life
Deep inside I know that I can run but I can't hide

Fallen angel at my side
Take me by the hand lead me far into night
Far away from this life

I've always felt so drawn to the sea, so deep and wild and free
I've always lived my life through my dreams, to deny life's misery
Winter winds are blowing through my life
Deep inside I know that I can run but I can't hide

03. All My Dreams

All these dreams I left behind
All these tears I cried through mournful nights
They're still haunting me as years pass by
All the dreams I ever wanted to come through for me
I saw them all cease to be

All my dreams decline, they fade away and die
I see them all passing by, break before my eyes
And still I wonder why no dreams come through
For me in this life

All the love you offered me was not enough to ever set me free
I still recall all we hope to be
All my words still left unspoken
A troubled mind and a heart so broken

04. This Darkness

In my darkest dreams, I follow you into the night
In my darkest dreams, I walk with you beyond the light

This darkeness on my mind always tries to bring me further down
This darkness deep inside makes me lose myself time after time

In my darkest hours, I see the world be built devours
In my darkest hours, I see a crumbling tower

Feel the pain, it's growing strong
Our hearts been bleeding for so long
There's a light, there's a dream, there's a fire within
Fading on into night eternally

Our crumbling walls, I can see them fall
Our bleeding hearts, forever lost in the dark

05. The Twilight In Your Eyes

The twilight in your eyes
It lingers still, like it has done all your life
Your heart is aching inside
It's bleeding still, like it has done all your life

I want to see the sun rise in your eyes
Be gone all sorrows, the pain that you keep inside
I want to see the summer lighten your life
Be gone all winters, the cold you still hold inside

The sorrow and the strife
Still linger here, like they have done all your life
The pain keeps holding you down
It hurts you still, like it has done all your life

06. Winter Land

I wish that summer never would let go
I wish that winter never got its grip on my lost soul

My home is where the summer dies
A winter land beneath the darkened skies
The summer sun is on the wane again
Embrace my heart, embrace my soul
Your touch is heaven sent

I wish that summer never would let go
I wish that winter never got its grip on my lost soul
I wish you'd be forever by my side
And lead me through the falling devastating eventide

My heart lies where the darkness falls
It's buried deep beneath the forest floor
The silvereye shines on as snow descends
My summer sun, you're long since gone
I'll wait for you until the bitter end

07. A Seaside Serenade

I wander lost and lonely by the shoreline of the sea
I think about the way I wanted life to be
The seaside leads me on to the sound of sweeping waves
My heart gets filled with sorrow and grief along the way

There is no hope still left in my eyes
There is no light still left in my life

It has all faded into the night

So many darkened memories still haunt me from the past
I think about all the loved ones I have lost
I know the spring will come with soothing rain some day
But only to be followed by the winters devastating pain

I see you wander lost and lonely by the shoreline of the sea
There's no light, there's no dreams, only the night
And the streams of tears down your cheeks

There's a wind from the past and at last it brought you to your kness
There's no hope, there's no glee, there's no life
Left for thee who wanders by the sea

08. Darkened Days To Come

She speaks to me in words that I can't understand
She moves in certain ways that I can't comprehend
She talks to me of love and life and faith and hope
She talks to me of death and darkened days to come

Come with me on through the veil of sleep
There are so many things I'd like to show you in my dreams
There is a path that leads us on and on through the beyond
I'll take you by the hand and I will never let you go

She pulls the strings attached so deeply to my heart
She takes me by the hand and lead me to the dark
She dance in lucid dreams, she's dancing in a trance
She pulls me deeper in, I never stood a chance

I know you're too far gone
What have we both become my dearest one
I'll walk you down the path
That leads to the dark in the deep of my heart

09. Coming Down

Voices speaking to my mind, from afar, from distant times
They speak to me about my life, of years to come with loss and strife

Life's coming down to the sound of your heart breaking
For all these years they tried to bring you to the ground
They made you fall eventually, this time around

For all these years you spoke to me, to my mind, to my sanity
Revealed to me all my deepest fears and brought me down soaked in tears

I scream in desperation
I'm the lost and the fallen one
I lost my destination
So long ago

Heading on towards devastation
I'm the lost and the fallen one
This will be my resignation
Once and for all

10. This Lonely Lake

I drift on a lonely lake, a lake of the darkness you forsake
I'm falling apart here in this life
I can not find the things that I've been searching for
All this time

Hear the sound of my heart breaking down in tears
As I cave in to all my fears, it's a cruel world ou there
I'm led astray in this wasteland and in the end
I know that I'm bound to descend

I'm lost on this lonely lake, I can't seem to find my way
I'm giving up on this life
'Cause I can't find the things that I've been searching for
All this time

11. Fading Star

You know all my dreams they fade with time
They're slowly dying in the darkest corners of your aching mind
A radiant star has lost its shine
Now consumed by all the darkness and the pain within this life

The fading embers burning out, while you linger here
Forevermore in darkness and in doubt

Fade... All my dreams they fade
Fade... See them pass away
Fade... See them all decay
All of my dreams fade away....

Into the night
Fade... Out of my sight
Fade... Like candle lights
All of my dreams fade away....

All of my dreams have come to an end

12. The Enigma Of Life

Still speaks the silence, it speaks in riddles to my mind
And time keeps passing by as I walk tearful through this life

Dreams pass by silently, I see them waving back at me
All hope is long since gone, I guess it really never was there at all
A mirage passed on

I know the darkness will break me
And you can not save me, can't catch my fall
I feel the sorrow embrace me, this life depraves me
I'm lost forevermore

My life darkens year by year, and no one seems to really care
My fear always lingers here, it's growing stronger deep inside of me
It won't set me free

Tears shed in silence, they run in rivers down my face
And what am I still living for, I can not take this pain no more

13. Oscura Realidad

En mis tenebrosos sue os
Te sigo en la oscuridad
En mis tenebrosos sue os
La luz al fin me cegar

La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas

En mis horas sombrias
Ya nuestro mundo se ha acabado
En mis horas sombrias
Veo una torre derrumbarse

La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas

Hace que me pierda una vez mas
Hace que me pierda una vez mas

Nuestros fragiles muros
Puedo verlos caer
Nuestras almas sangraran
Por siempre en la oscuridad

La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas

La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas

[English translation:]

In my dark dreams
I follow you in the dark
In my dark dreams
The light in the end will blind me

The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more

In my shadow hours
Our world has already ended
In my shadow hours
I see a tower collapsing

The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more

Makes me get lost once more [x2]

Our fragile walls
I can now see them fall
Our souls will bleed
Forever in the dark

The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more

The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more

14. The Enigma Of Life

Still speaks the silence
It speaks in riddles to my mind
And time keeps passing by
As I walk tearful through this life

Dreams pass by silently,
I see them waving back at me
All hope is long since gone,
I guess it really never was there at all
A mirage passed on

[Chorus:]
I know the darkness will break me
And you can not save me, can't catch my fall
I feel the sorrow embrace me, this life depraves me
I'm lost forevermore

My life darkens year by year, and no one seems to really care
My fear always lingers here, it's growing stronger deep inside of me
It won't set me free

[Chorus]

Tears shed in silence, they run in rivers down my face
And what am I still living for, I can not take this pain no more
