Alone in a world of silence, I'm crawling in you
I won't ever betray your trust, feel me - I subdue Trust you seek, and you'll find messiah Take the stone 'round your neck away Don't you ever display my fear, I'm yours - so some what may Oh, and I opened the door The cold's forevermore So don't you see, you are your own enemy So I'll fight, stand or fall Choose my fate, feel how it's calling to us all Stand or fall, the new world messiah And the dawn of man There are times when beckons to me, Grips my throat and just pulls me in Here I am but a shadow's worth, to wash away my sins 02. Against the World
They taught him right and what to believe
How to live by the rules The all restrained his hungry heart, With time he would conceive Walked the path of a righteous man Taught him how to belong A winding road, and now it seems No, the world is on my shoulders I'm the one against the world The one they lead astray But I'll know till my till my dying day I'm the only one against the world Never look at him and what he's become He still kneels for them all A broken pawn, about to fall There he stands alone again While his world becomes unread Forever astray 03. Avalon
In the void, long before time, the entity broke into five
The elements of life once came alive Genesis, womb of the world, god of time Bringer of all Spring out of the dark, behold the light Stand up in a land of flames Gods at war, battle forevermore Rise, Avalon From the veil of mystery The birth of time will soon begin, for all to see Rise, Avalon While tomorrow fades away Welcome to the poisoned land As all towers fall Brave New World rise to the sky, The wonders of man crumble and fall Man appointing Gods, unfold our fear 04. Awakening
I'll end my journey here
Because time and tide it waits for no man There's something strange in me, I see the things that should not be It's all a mindless game Trapped inside the walls I built Try to pull them down But something stops me Then the feeling comes alive I can't hold it any more Enemy, is it you End of the time, walking alone In this void of my own Demons of guilt, battle to win This is my awaking There's no turning back, there's nothing to awaken me Insanity my friend I can feel your gripping hand To roam the earth alive, But feel as if you're dead and dreaming Try to break away, but nothing helps me 05. Egyptica
How many miles of endless sand
Must we drag your stones into this wasteland? How many years in endless pain Must we toil under your reign? Just like in Babylon, no glory last forever The icon is not, what it seems to be No more slavery, no you're not heaven sent Nothing stands alone, feel the endless pain In Egyptica Here we raise your tower high Still an infant divine in our eyes After years still flesh and blood They said he would become a god 06. Break Away
Don't ever run, and love a lie
Rise above it all Spread your wings to fly Don't ever climb, the ship of fools Sailing on and on Face the truth Hear the cry, destiny calling you again Point the way, allow you to fly away Following the silent voice within Break away, rise anew By leaving the memory behind you Break away, carry on Only the strong will live on Your darkest hour, the final day Looks you in the eye Turn and walk away Blackened soul, a heart of stone Clown behind the mask Let it out 07. End of Days
Have you seen the fall of the world
How blood stains the ground at our feet Mankind kills in the name of God Holy vengeance, lies and deceit Have you seen the fall of man How wounded he crawls through the mud Dust and bones still cover the soil, While we measure our wages in blood We've lost our way, the end of the rope Our final day We'll learn, bridges still burn The end of days, now feel how we lost our way Forgive the sins of those before And turn the lies away With eyes ablaze, now witness our end of days A fading world for all to see, unfold the final decree Dreams are spun in ivory towers And fear in the game we learn See the world, its barren soil, The shackles that hold us will burn It feels like we fade away The world is dark and burning We know, it's coming near This is the end of days 08. The Flames Will Never Die
The painting is fading now
The color's wearing thin Her eyes in the broken glass A stare that chills within She cries only crimson tears The eyes are burning with fire Once believed, made her strong Once deceived made her wrong Sorrow and pain, closed her eyes to see through the unknown Nothing's in vain, 'cus the flame, The flame will never die The lines in her ashen face Reveal a heart torn asunder Twisted ones, bring the pain Throw your first stone again 09. One Nation
The world was growing colder
The watched from far away How man was weakened still In his final How fear became his shadow The feeble lead the blind Another hell begins You're next in line From here we see forever, this place is ours you know Our time is drawing near One nation, one world And forevermore, into an everlasting war One nation, one world And we heard the call, the future lies within our hands Another shiny empire Of evil come divine Built your house on sand, it's over now Time has come at last Killing fields, gone at last and forevermore 10. Nightmare
To wake and wipe the sweat away
Like so many times before Pray to see the light of day There's something wicked in us all We meet inside our dreams When awake we can't recall No sleep till dawn To wander endlessly, set us free Twilight, dream time defines our glory In silence we conquer it all Midnight, dreams time conceals story We're alive in a nightmare His idle hand when unaware We all chant the rhyme in fear Speak the killing words again Dream maker, sing your little tune Make us dance to what you play Dream time is coming soon |
