All through the night he is lying awake
Wond'ring how much more can he take Watching the walls where the shadows dance Drifting away into a trance And his eyes are blazing with fire Dreams burnt to ashes so many times Highest of mountains, still he climbs Ready to fly, cause he just can't stay Flame burning brighter with everyday And his eyes are blazing with fire Longing for the deepest desire Heart of an eagle He flies through the rainbow Into a new world and finds the sun Spreading his wings Above all the sorrows The glory of Eagleheart Fever is burning in his veins Determined with courage, breaking the chains Back against the wall under blood red skies Prepared to fight until he dies And his eyes are blazing with fire Longing for the deepest desire Heart of an eagle He flies through the rainbow Into a new world and finds the sun Spreading his wings Above all the sorrows The glory of Eagleheart Heart of an eagle He flies through the rainbow Into a new world and finds the sun Spreading his wings Above all the sorrows The glory of Eagleheart 02. Soul Of A Vagabond Music & lyrics by Timo Tolkki
Pack on my back I wander
Over mountains across the seas My yearning soul keeps roaming In the endless search for peace Sky is my roof, my shelter Stars shine and light my way Earth is my bed, my altar On this road that leads to nowhere In silence I scream but no one listens to me Absolution, salvation, my sins won't leave me be The first cry, the last breath We are born to die This madness neverending Don't know the reason why Soul of a vagabond Illusion, delusion, we are born to live Temptation, damnation, starvation, deformation The road goes on forever It's an old and trustworthy friend I have tasted its dust and treasures By my twisted mind won't mend My burden is heavy to carry My destiny lies ahead My spirit is always leaving For this road that leads to nowhere... In silence I scream but no one listens to me Absolution, salvation, my sins won't leave me be The first cry, the last breath We are born to die This madness neverending Don't know the reason why Soul of a vagabond Illusion, delusion, we are born to live Temptation, damnation, starvation, deformation In silence I scream but no one listens to me Absolution, salvation, my sins won't leave me be The first cry, the last breath We are born to die This madness neverending Don't know the reason why Illusion, delusion, we are born to live Temptation, damnation, starvation, deformation In silence I scream but no one listens to me Soul of a vagabond Absolution, salvation, my sins won't leave me be The first cry 03. Find Your Own Voice Music & lyrics by Timo Tolkki
No christ, god nor religion
Gave me the answers I was looking for Arrogant hypocrites Selling the key to heaven's door I've got my own way I don't care what you say You speak your truth and I speak mine Find your own voice Unleash the power within Go find your own truth and let others be Let your own light guide your way through life Find your own way Make your own paradise Find your own voice It's your own choice Find your own voice Unleash the power within Go find your own truth and let others be Let your own light guide your way through life Find your own way Make your own paradise Find your own voice It's your own choice Find your own voice It's your own choice 04. Fantasia Music & lyrics by Timo Tolkki
Welcome to my world
Close the gates You've come from far away I've been expecting you You are the holders of the key To the story that never ends Fantasia Resides deep in your heart Leave your worries far behind Fantasia Let the freedom ring the bell Let us all unite Borders made of hate are gone Nations singing the song of peace In Fantasia How would it be? A world without hate Without heaven, without hell No wars, no arms, no religion, no god Just your own truth Fear and darkness prevail But finally they will fail Fantasia Resides deep in your heart Leave your worries far behind Fantasia Let the freedom ring the bell Let us all unite Borders made of hate are gone Nations singing the song of peace Fantasia Fantasia One day when love conquers all Mankind will prevail No more jealousy Fantasia No more envy no deceit The nothing is gone Future's bright and glorious We are all victorious We are kings in Fantasia 05. Learning To Fly Music & lyrics by Timo Tolkki
Life will go on
Soon it is gone It's bigger than we can conceive Wink of an eye A thousand years Into eternity we shed our tears I'm changing, Rearranging my destiny Learning to fly Touching sky on my way Learning to fly High above the sorrows To a new day I fly Not where you stand Nor where you are It matters only where you look To take the good With the bad It is the only way to go The minutes The hours The years Run fast Learning to fly Touching sky on my way Learning to fly High above the sorrows To a new day I fly Learning to fly Touching sky on my way Learning to fly High above the sorrows I fly Learning to fly Touching sky on my way Learning to fly High above the sorrows To a new day I fly 06.

08. Elements Music & lyrics by Timo Tolkki
Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth
Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy Pools of sounds fill my mind A universe of shapes Kaleidoscope of colours Stargardens blossom in their solitude Spiral architecture Here I'm standing Here I'm wondering Curiosity, thirst for knowledge Eye for an eye and the whole world will be blind Oceans of madness drowning the hope of mankind What kind of man kills because of ideology? What kind of god justifies violence? I am begging for comprehension While aggression tears the world apart Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth - Elements We are star children Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements That's what we are made of Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth - Elements That's what life's made of Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements That's what I'm made of Wind - Bringer of fright Fire - Protector Water - Cleanse my soul Earth - Be my guide And in the darkest night I won't give up the fight I won't be losing hope I hold on to what is true Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth - Elements We are star children Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements That's what we are made of Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth - Elements That's what life's made of Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements That's what I'm made of Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth - Elements We are star children Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements That's what we are made of Elements - Wind, Fire, Water, Earth - Elements That's what life's made of Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements That's what I'm made of Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements Elements - Fear, Anger, Sorrow, Joy - Elements 09. A Drop In The Ocean Music & lyrics by Timo Tolkki
Seasons of madness fill my mind
A lunar poet trying to find A conception of what life is all about Seconds pass me by I greet the minutes A the hours roll them over And years will drown the days and months We are one, we are strangers in the night Searching for our way to the light Like an echo of unseen fantasies That you'll never be able to catch A drop in the ocean we are sailing upon The angels of heaven are singing this song Just souls in the corner of our universe It seems that it's all we are A drop in the ocean Planet caravans sail on and on In cosmic harmony they go Within embrace of universal womb Is it cosmic madness, harmony? I ask you in my agony As time won't heal my wounds it makes me numb We are one, we are strangers in the night Searching for our way to the light Like an echo of unseen fantasies That you'll never be able to catch A drop in the ocean we are sailing upon The angels of heaven are singing this song Just souls in the corner of our universe It seems that it's all we are A drop in the ocean we're sailing upon The angels of heaven are singing this song Just souls in the corner of our universe It seems that it's all we are A drop in the ocean |
