You're not alone below the moon
All of us wait, for moment's gone too soon You and me, breathe, to ignore the reason Freedom, scream again Inside of me, doors will stay open A thousand lives to live Waiting like universes do without an end Love break into my innocence Innocence, innocence, innocence Innocence, innocence Stay close to me Everything you knew Left with the wind In times like this we do You and me, breathe, to ignore the feeling Freedom, scream again Inside of me, doors will stay open A thousand lives to live Waiting like universes do without an end Love break into my innocence Innocence, innocence, innocence Innocence, innocence Inside of me, doors will stay open A thousand lives to live Waiting like universes do without an end Love break into my innocence Innocence, innocence, innocence Innocence, innocence 02. Demons In You
[Tarja & Alissa:]
Endless My war to reason Falling to pieces When I could see now understand Empty My fears of treason Trying to blind me The brightest void is sucking me in. [Tarja:] Like a million geysers still asleep Demons in you. Lost in the light Eternal seek of Paradise Scared to loose the fight With what's in me Found another side, The darkest thoughts, The deepest sea Where sun and moon arise It's me. [Tarja & Alissa:] Chaos In isolation Your only truth What we can hear no one can understand Madness In desperation A burst of anger The shadow self is taking over. [Alissa:] Like a million geysers still asleep Demons in you. Lost in the light Eternal seek of Paradise Scared to loose the fight With what's in me Found another side, The darkest thoughts, The deepest sea Where sun and moon arise It's me. [Tarja & Alissa:] Lost in the light Eternal seek of Paradise Scared to loose the fight With what's in me Found another side, The darkest thoughts, The deepest sea Where sun and moon arise It's me. 03. No Bitter End
There's a road for everyone
'Cause every heart's the same To forgive what you have done A silent wish for change Desire is a flame alive When dreams are far away Open up your inner eye Let hope save the day She will fall all over you Like a rain, shine the new And will make the path for you to take Till the end walk you through Time won't wait Lead your fate Never let go Blackout the sun Light nowhere Tell me you don't need it anymore No bitter end Hold on, don't run, forever Still yourself the one that you defend No bitter end Silently, mysteriously How brave worlds are born They cut away the misery For hearts to find home To be there with all you need And nothing left to prove Take a chance, oh, but never leave Know it all starts with you Time won't wait Lead your fate Never let go Blackout the sun Light nowhere Tell me you don't need it anymore No bitter end Hold on, don't run, forever Still yourself the one that you defend No bitter end There's a road for everyone 'Cause every heart's the same To forgive what you have done A silent wish for change Blackout the sun Hold on, don't run... Blackout the sun Light nowhere Tell me you don't need it anymore No bitter end Hold on, don't run, forever Still yourself the one that you defend No bitter end 04. Love To Hate
Made of stone
Behind the walls A heart afraid of breaking. Shades of fear Stained your life A child afraid of waking. Numb with in The sadness won't find you. No return No way home You're burning all the bridges. Stories told I've read your book Where anger writes the pages. Search within The empty words The answers you'll find at the end. Who do you think you are? I gave you the stars You made them fall from the sky So this is my goodbye. Swimming in the scarlet rain Far away Far away. Embracing a thousand blades Flies away Far away. Breaking the cage, run against the flames Distrust and bitterness It dies today Lose your rage, save what stills remains Despair and loneliness Why you love to hate? Washed the pain Time in vain, thinking of tomorrow Dust of shame No more rain Brush away my sorrow. 05. Supremacy
Wake to see your true emancipation is a fantasy
Policies have risen up and overcome the brave Greatness dies, unsung and lost, invisible to history Embedded spies brainwashing our children to be mean You don't have long, I am on to you. The time it has come to destroy Your supremacy! Ahhh! Ooh oh Ooh oh You don't have long, I am on to you. The time it has come to destroy Your Supremacy! Your! Supremacy! Yeah ooh yeah oh 06. The Living End
Is the song that's forever
There's no need to surrender Here with you now Lights in the air Devoted No yesterday Dying to live this moment Growing stronger, taking over Truth in your eyes, See through my heart It's open Make me believe Gives life to the path I've chosen Blind desire, reaching higher Is the song that's forever in the flame within The living end There's no need to surrender, I will sing it The living end Sounds like colours raining down Burning up the night 07. Diva
We can laugh at it now
I don't mind all the burning daggers Piercing me, shaping me Turning the blade on you. I revealed my escape Sweetest mutiny, ship was sinking Deeper and deeper and deeper On top of you. Oh, how does it feel? Now when there's no way out You married your own hell Couldn't get out of your own mind. Now I have the key Out of the downwards spiraling conspiracy Just look at me Just look at... Diva, Diva, Diva, Diva! When you chiselled your scene So delusional, almost got me Started to question my sanity cause of you. I've been tasting the salt Couldn't stand all the rats on board I walked down the plank as the curtains dell down on you. Oh, how does it feel? Now when there's no way out You married your own hell Couldn't get out of your own mind. Now I have the key Out of the downwards spiraling conspiracy Just look at me Just look at... Diva, Diva, Diva, Diva! Just look at Diva, Diva, Diva, Diva! Oh, how does it feel? Now when there's no way out You married your own hell Couldn't get out of your own mind. Now I have the key Out of the downwards spiraling conspiracy Just look at me Just look at... Diva, Diva, Diva, Diva! Just look at Diva, Diva, Diva, Diva! 08. Eagle Eye
I've been to the end of earth, the waters, end of sky
I've circled the mountains, the forests, across the nights Over the land that I have seen Where the wind swept my heart clean I found a way to feel alive Leaving behind your eagle eye Love like a dancing fire, untamed, blazing high The power to dwell as one, unchained, will not die When you have burned so deep within Rest the ashes, then begin I found a way to feel alive Leaving behind your eagle eye Over the land that we have seen Where the wind swept our hearts clean When we have burned so deep within Rest the ashes, then begin Eagle eye I found a way to feel alive Leaving behind your eagle eye I found a way to feel alive Leaving behind your eagle eye 09. Undertaker
Bring out to dead
I'll bury them all Leave them with me. Dress them in silk Black as the night Where no one can see. Paint them with dirt Shallow their graves Silent their names. Swallowed by earth Written in dust Killing the fame. How did they die? Oh the despair So many lost. Original sin Gone in thin air That is the cost. No one recalls All that is left Nameless farewell. Minding the fall Cover the theft Welcome to hell. Meet your maker, ring your bells in vain Undertaker, I am why you came Feed your life with every need you have And down below, forever, oh how sad. Covered with thorns Knocking the wood Scratching the lid. Legends are born Without fine jewels Here I forbid. Walk amongst you Sing to your sweet Dark lullabies. Giving you rest Tainting your dreams Cover your eyes. Meet your maker, ring your bells in vain Undertaker, I am why you came Feed your life with every need you have And down below forever, oh so sad. 10. Calling From The Wild
See the world as one
Find what grows from stone Roam our circle, come home. On my ocean, are you shadowing me? Breaking surface to connect again For a moment, I can feel what you feel So clear, and I'm with you again. In my air, I feel you covering me Out of trust, you gave me the power to them And if only they could see what you see Wind and love never hide Into the sky. One more Stand for Freedom Calling from the wild side For life Reason There's no life, without a dream No power strong enough to hold it back In a never ending stream See the world as one Listen to the call and stand for? One more, One more, One more. From my trees I know you're following me Through the wind I hear you speaking of love And a message that I want to believe That we forgot and now I'm with you again Wind and love never hide Into the sky. One more, One more, There's no life, without a dream No power strong enough to hold it back In a never ending stream See the world as one Listen to the call and stand for? One more, One more, One more. 11. Too Many
Many too many
Living their fears Only few won't fade away. Not too many Facing their tears When sunrise outshines the grey. She couldn't see the world within her hands, So beautiful No one could hear the silence calling her. Missed forever, wonder why Close and far, as you and I Like ice flowers trapped in time. What if I could rescue us If I could fight back life Break my pride For a moment in time. Many too many Living their fears Only few won't fade away. Not too many Facing their tears When sunrise outshines the grey. He couldn't heal the broken memories A sacrifice No one could read the silence in his eyes. Just a canvas in the sky Perfect sunset long denied Spirit's flying Birds that cease their wanderlust Fall. What if I could rescue us If I could fight back life Break my pride For a moment in time I could reach the sun I could touch the stars And you'd stay For a moment in time. Many too many Living their fears Only few won't fade away. Not too many Facing their tears When sunrise outshines the grey... |
