Tracks



01. To The Unknown

[Instrumental]

02. Unity

Since the early beginning
Liars have held us down
All the dreams we are chasing
They had to be reached running against the stream

Imagine, just for a lucid lapse,
The power reunited,
Carried by faithful warriors

With sweat and blood,
We forge our strongest tie
Together as one,
Climbing up to the highest skies

We're finally free to create our own destiny,
Free to believe in the rules we're choosing
We'll never return to the deep hole of the lost
Even if all goes wrong we will never bow
Under the weight of the world

With sweat and blood,
We forge our strongest tie
Together as one,
Climbing up to the highest skies
We are strong as the stream,
We're fast as the wind
We have the force and, at last, we're complete

It is a winding road,
Unequal and separatist
Everything has its end
But ours is to achieve our dream!

With sweat and blood,
We forge our strongest tie
Together as one,
Climbing up to the highest skies
We are strong as the stream,
We're fast as the wind
We have the force and, at last,
For the first time we rise, we're complete

03. Hero's Soul

Everything is getting black and cold,
Your longing hope dies away
The sky is darker, lights begin to blaze
Reveal the essence of your soul,
Stand up, take a breath, fight for change
There are no limits for the brave

Brave. Don′t stop. It is time to awake your soul
Believe in yourself to become heroes

After years of searching through the past for signs of hope,
Anything that makes me get it on
When the darkest days of solitude menaced me to the core,
I still looked for something more

You are the owner of your own fate

When everything is getting black and cold
And your longing hope dies away,
When sky is darker lights begin to blaze
Reveal the essence of your soul,
Stand up, take a breath and fight for change again
There are no limits for the brave

After passing all the turns and twists of my path
And the happiness came to me at last
Finally, I learnt to decipher the mysteries
Which once stopped my beats

Every moment is a gift

When everything is getting black and cold
And your longing hope dies away,
When sky is darker lights begin to blaze
Reveal the essence of your soul,
Stand up, take a breath and fight for change again
There are no limits for the brave

In our own being, illusion to become stronger
In our own being, delusion to getting far beyond
Resolution, our courage forever
See it

When everything is getting black and cold
And your longing hope dies away,
When sky is darker lights begin to blaze
A new sun is rising
Bringing you another day to carry on
And forge your hero's soul!

Brave. Don't stop. It is time to awake your soul
Believe in yourself to become heroes
Heroes

04. Over The Clouds

Have you got enemies?
That means you stand up for something
Do not apologize for feeding empty lives
Time to say goodbye

Break it!
They just hate a reflection
Of what they′d love to be
Don't ever be afraid to show imperfections,
They′re always gonna stay

Sailing over the clouds

Ignore the crowds who wanna see you fail,
'Cause they are frail
Stand your ground against the deceivers
Our light will burn the eyes of those ones
Who want to see us down

Have you felt the disease?
That moment
When you question your choices,
Stand before the abyss
and scream your secrets to the wind

Doesn't matter what they think of us,
In the end it's gonna be our way,
With the choices that we make

Sailing over the clouds

Ignore the crowds who wanna see you fail,
′Cause they are frail
Stand your ground against the deceivers
Our light will burn the eyes of those ones
Who won't see us...

Keep moving on, their hate is our motivation

Your words are venomous,
But they won't affect us

When the black clouds
Don't allow us to see the sun
When the burden is so
Heavy to carry on

Our voices will join together
And we will break through the sound
Of their minds with united hands,
We will stand as one

05. Demons

I make humanity cease to exist,
Demons become wizards of influence
I make appearance
Prevail over the essence
My power seduces you
Leaving the ambitious with an empty mind

Look at me:
I'm the reflection of your inner desolation
Put a number to your dreams
Sell your soul and watch it burn!

Your senses are dominated
By greed and deceit

What is the price of your time?
Was it worth the pride?
You can pay for a body but not for a smile

Look at me:
I'm the reflection of your inner desolation
Put a number to your dreams
Sell your soul and watch it burn!

You want to own everything
You're poisoning yourself
You want to become a god
Through the suffering

Your judgment has come
No false tears or lies
Hold on to your life
And say goodbye to your soul

Take a look around,
Where are all the forests?
Were they all cut down
To make your wallet wider?

You sold us!
Betrayed us!

And take a look around,
Where are all the voices?
Were they sacrificed
To make your wallet wider?

Look at me:
I'm the reflection of your inner desolation
Put a number to your dreams
Sell your soul and watch it burn!

Look at me:
I'm the reflection of your inner desolation
Put a number to your dreams
Sell your soul and watch it burn!

For many riches you got, you are worthless
You are empty inside
You are meant to be alone,
Your life is burning now!

The past condemns you,
Now you seek forgiveness
Guilt will absorb you
At the end you′ll be forgotten
Without peace, pride or love

06. The Wanderer

Before the flaming horizon
And the universe above me,
I raise anchor from a place
Where the water was no longer clear

Now it′s time to think about me
Be brave to roam this rotten land
Cutting ties from walking shadows
Being free to dream again
I'm facing my fate...

Holding my golden compass
I will find what I'm waiting for
Shining stars will be my guide,
My destiny's calling
Wind is blowing into the sails of my soul
There is no one depending on me,
I will write the story on my own
On my own

Raging seas and striking thunders
Heavy rain is falling
As if drops were spears of ice
But it doesn't matter what comes to me,
I'm stronger than any storm could be
I'll always be free!

Holding my golden compass
I will find what I'm waiting for
Shining stars will be my guide
My destiny′s calling
Wind is blowing into the sails of my soul
There is no one depending on me
I will write the story on my own

Holding my golden compass
I will find what I'm waiting for
Shining stars will be my guide
My destiny′s calling
Wind is blowing into the sails of my soul
There is no one depending on me
I will write the story on my own

Holding my golden compass
I will find what I'm waiting for
Shining stars will be my guide
My destiny′s calling
Wind is blowing into the sails of my soul
There is no one depending on me
I will write the story on my own

07. Crystal Tower

Walking down the street
With a cold and empty heart
My eyes can see the sun,
But its rays can′t dry my tears

People wave at me
As they are passing by
I wear the perfect disguise
To hide away my pain

I reach home, the mask drops
Each stair is like a challenge
I surrender to the loneliness,
I can't hide it anymore

I'm afraid of the emptiness I feel inside
I feel weak in the silence
Of those colors that won't return
I still remember when I was happy,
I miss the real me
I just feel like I'm drowning
In my crystal tower, alone

In life sometimes
What seems like an end is just a beginning
Everything comes, happens, changes,
The way has a meaning

But today I can't, I can't see beyond
My hope collapses, everything is gray,
The anguished silence crushes me

I'm spinning in the storm
Of a room full of frustration
I'm afraid to leave but it kills me being here,
I can't stand it anymore
I'm afraid of the emptiness I feel inside
I feel weak in the silence
Of those colors that won't return
I still remember when I was happy,
I miss the real me
I just feel like I'm drowning
In my crystal tower...

Alone in the highs I can see my loved ones
How they are trying to get me back
But something keeps me here,
Please don't think I don't want to
Without you I will always be lost

I'm afraid of the emptiness I feel inside
I feel weak in the silence
Of those colors that won't return
I still remember when I was happy,
I miss the real me
I just feel like I'm drowning
In my crystal tower...

08. Kill To Live

This story is about a child
Who was ripped out from his life
Hands dyed in red of mom and dad
and without a home to come back

(They own)
He's scared and lost
(His life!)
A grain of sand in an hourglass

With his metal toy he runs
Through the burning battlefield,
Death's smell doesn't let him breathe
His young heart covered with scars
can't remember how to feel,
all he knows is killing to live

With dust in his eyesight
He fights for his life
The friends that he never met
Are lying on the roadside

Screams, open fire and
The smoke cover the sun
There is no stop in his way
To fix his broken mind

(They own)
He's scared and lost
(His life!)
A grain of sand in an hourglass

With his metal toy he runs
Through the burning battlefield,
Death's smell doesn't let him breathe
His young heart covered with scars
Can't remember how to feel,
All he knows is killing to live

You have been chosen to fulfill the word of God
Kill or die now, you are worthless for the world

Running away with no place to hide from the horror that torments him
Trying to escape from this madness of sorrow and cruelty
Running away with no place to hide from the horror that torments him
Trying to escape from this madness of sorrow and cruelty

(They own)
He's scared and lost
(His life!)
A grain of sand in an hourglass

With his metal toy he runs
Through the burning battlefield,
Death's smell doesn't let him breathe
His young heart covered with scars
Can't remember how to feel,
All he knows is killing to live

A cold bullet of salvation
Pierces his little chest,
At last he stops feeling afraid
His young heart is giving up
But he knows it's his way out
Lights turn off, he's happy: he is free

09. Oniros

Welcome to the endless realm
Where the dreams come true
Will you find the door
To where you belong?
Welcome to the endless realm
Where the nightmares come true
Will you cross the door?
This is what you forgot

Waking up on the waves,
Frozen lights surround me
Looking at the water's edge,
Snow dances in the air
Every night when life collapses,
I walk over the clouds of time
Moonlight shining everywhere
And a sweet melody resonates

There is nothing I should fear,
Peace and warmth shelter me

Carry me (with hands of silk)
To discover (what's buried underneath)
Invisible (paths leading to)
Places (too far to reach)

Rivers made of crystals are flowing through the hills
Paddling in the surface the ghosts of living dreams
Whispering words of wisdom they feed my hungry mind,
Breaking all my barriers, healing my broken heart
Suddenly the world fades away,
Why are you leaving me again?

There is something inside me
Through the mist I'll find what it is

Now I can see a new vision of my inner reality
Universe full of memories gives me the chance to swim through my past
Now I can feel the changes of the future, shifting what's gonna be
Opening the gates of space and flying without bounds to the great unknown

Demon shaped shadows flying in a red sky,
Raindrops of blood are drenching the line
Their voices whisper that I'm caught in the land
Where only fear commands
They said I'm lost,
They said I'm trapped
And I won't find my way back home

As I made my way through the burning buildings,
The floor cracks, and I fall apart
This world lags behind
At last I can see a different light

Now come to me
Dear memories and guide me
Through this sea of mystery,
Give me the wisdom
I hear the wind
Crashing against my wings,
Leading me to a new window

Now I can see a new vision of my inner reality
Universe full of memories gives me the chance to swim through my past
Now I can feel the changes of the future, shifting what's gonna be
Opening the gates of space and flying without bounds to the great unknown

Floating without gravity,
Suspended in the dark
Wondering which is real life
All of this, was it meant to be?
Is it part of my destiny?

All of these different lives I had to live,
Were they all the same?
Strokes of a painting?
But now I'm here and I just feel fear.
Am I lost in the infinity?

Standing at the shore of reality,
Looking at it, like omniscient
All the events, the choices I made,
Languish like waves at my feet

Here, in this nebula of space and time
Where all can be and can become real,
It's my heart, my soul, myself:
One with the universe

And I hear it cracking,
The time comes back to life again
And I, look around
Alone in my bed

Waking up...

10. The Hidden Truth

We're lonely souls seeking the truth behind our anxiety
Looking through the mysteries of life
But no one can give us a chance
To feel what's life again

They can cover our eyes but they cannot kill our inner light

We'll keep the fight inside our hearts
And the hope to change the world
(And the hope to change the world)
I'll rise my voice to remind you that we can be strong
And realize, this is our chance, this is our life!

I hold my breath and try to stand against
The vague and blurred lines of unconsciousness
I need to be the one that all can see and heal
The wounds of the spirit of what I believe

Slow down. Why are they whispering our names?
Those who attempt to give us a life are the same
That once lied to us, just because they fear us,
They fear what they don't understand

They can tell us lies but they can't hide the truth inside the dark

We'll keep the fight inside our hearts
And the hope to change the world
(And the hope to change the world)
I'll rise my voice to remind you that we can be strong
And realize, this is our chance, this is our life...

Is it possible? We must

We′ll keep the fight inside our hearts
And the hope to change the world
(And the hope to change the world)

Remove the veil

It's time to change, to rise your voice
The hidden truth
It′s time to change, to rise your voice!

Fight, life, fight, life
Fight, fight, this is our life!
