Lyrics by -DaN-
Letting Go

A brand new day at last is born
The first wave breaks on the shore
The sun is shinning bright

Across the centuries of pain
My heart is rising again
Did you hear all my cries?

I'm on the edge to turn away
I can't explain
But I don't want to be alone
It's in the air, it's in my face,
It's everywhere
I 'd like to know how to carry on...

I ask myself in the end
Was everybody just lying
Right from the start?

And if you are longing to be free
You better think of a way
To find some love in your heart

I'm on the edge to turn away
I can't explain
But I don't want to be alone
It's in the air, it's in my face
It's everywhere
And now I know how to carry on

Falling with the rain
To meet you once again
Set me free

Flying to ever more
But I won't fly alone
Can't you feel me letting go?

A moment like a million more
Let me hold you for a while

Just strangers now or have we met before
It's up to you to treat me well
Or throw me on the floor

There's a reason why we live and die
In the end only a footprint stay behind

There's a time for love, time for pain
Have you seen how pictures melt down in the sky

Letting go [2x]

Falling with the rain
To see you once again
Set me free

Flying to ever more
But I don't fly alone
Can't you feel me letting go?

03. Rio

Music by Andre Matos / Luís Mariutti
Lyrics by -DaN-
Sometimes the Universe
Fits inside my world
There's nowhere else to be
And no place to return
The power in my hands
Let law be made by force
At times my conscience speaks
But now it's more and more

The day I'm waiting for...

... Is in the air I breathe
Fine and strong and pure
Out in the sea beneath,
The mountains and the shore
Inside this picture,
A city made by God
Irrational progress
But now it's more and more

Today the skies are blue
I hold the sun tight in my arms...

Rio, falling apart
Someday I will die for you
Never, never give it up
One day I will die for you
In your arms!

I see my universe
Grow larger than before
Maybe it's just because
Nobody card to shut the door!

I'm locked inside your arms,
The key is in my soul
There is no true escape
So here's where I belong
I look around and see
A city made by God
I used to be free
But now I am no more

Together we are strong
Let's play the future on our dreams

Rio, falling apart
Someday I will die for you
Never, never give it up

To play with desire
It's playing with fire
Right form the start!

04. Remember Why

Music by unavailable
Lyrics by -DaN-
I see the future coming
I'll tell you what's to be
A life turns into another
But no more I can't see
And I hold your hand

You said you'd never leave him
But now you let him go
Someday he will forgive you
And stop to suffer so
A storm arrives with thunders
The end arrived with smiles
A life inside another
Has made its ways through cries
And I hold your hand
Yes, I hold your hand...

Somedays we're covered up in sorrow
But still we're standing here
Sometimes this life's too short
To understand
Someone, oh, please just let me borrow
A little courage for my fears at night...
Don't drift into a state of sadness
Making something never seen
Look under every stone along the way
Whatever happens, use your power,
Don't surrender to your fears at night...

So, turn around,
Keep on moving now
Hitting every single road
Just keeping on running on and on and on...

Running on and on we face our fears
I remember why
And though the dangers run so near,
A rainbow fills the sky
The freedom lies over our heads
We must live before we die
Believe me, I remember why!

There's a way
To melt down your frozen heart
Just keep on living
Cause inside, your will
Never dies! Oh, no!

05. How Long (Unleashed Away)

Music by unavailable
Lyrics by -DaN-
I'm just trying to find me...
I'm just trying to find me...

You said I'm too proud to regret it
You never saw how hard it was for me
To take control of my own emotions
To find a way to set myself free
So am I fine to play the role
Of someone long forgotten soul
But what is obvious is that you are so trapped
Inside your own world!

Somedays I wonder if I could
Be another kind of person, find another truth
I know these words all too well:
Be yourself, no one else - never break the spell!

How long?
How long will we hide what's going on?
How long will we stand alone?
To see
Whatever lays inside of you and me
It just needs to be unleashed away!

I said now I want to forget it
So many tears have rolled down in vain
And in the end it's just the same
'Cos I know it will never change
I think I never satisfied you
Did you find it somewhere else?
No regrets, just keep on moving
You better trust yourself?

Somedays I wonder if I could

I'm just trying to find me...
I'm just trying to find me...

06. Looking Back

Music by Andre Matos
Lyrics by -DaN-
I thought you'd last forever
But like a star, you never would
A stairway to the rainbow
I wish that I knew

Your silhouette surrounds me
I miss the way things used to be
Your voice floats in the wind
How I wish you were here...

Solitude is taking over
By the way,
So many things I kept from you till now
Stand by me
Reach out for my hand and I will follow

Beyond this time I'm living now
I'm ever looking back at you
And when it rains upon the green fields
I'll be thinking about you...

Remember how it feels now
You taught me freedom with a few words
The beauty of this world was
All painted by you

Solitude is taking over
By the way,
So many things I kept from you till now
Stand by me
Reach out for my hand and I will follow

Beyond this time I'm living now
I'm ever looking back at you
And when it rains upon the green fields
I'll be searching there for you
I knew one day you had to leave me
But that day came to soon

Beyond this time

I knew one day you had to leave me
Still I'll walk on with you...

07. Face The End

Music by Andre Matos
Lyrics by -DaN-
I decided to come here
To tell you what I never could!
In the end we're not the same,
I'm tired of being misunderstood

All I need is to break free
Like my spirit used to be

Too many nights
I thought of you
But now there's nothing I can do...

Forgive me but I'll say the truth:
It's time to face the end!
What goes around
Comes around back to you,
Forgive me but I'll say the truth...

See the scars deep in your face,
Feel the thorns around your heart
All that's gone now stays behind,
There's no need to fall apart

All I want is to run free
With no shadows over me

So far away
Though standing near
I know these words are hard to hear!

Forgive me but I'll say the truth:
It's time to free the end!
What goes around
Comes around straight to you,
Forgive me but I'll say the truth...

Would you pledge absolution to me now?
Will you throw away your armour?
Or will it go on and on with you?

Forgive me but I'll say the truth...

Forgive me but I'll say it
There's nothing left to stop me
Forgive me but I'm over you!

08. Time To Be Free

Music by Andre Matos
Lyrics by -DaN-
Falling drops against the window
I took a while to feel awake
Moving clouds is this dream never end
Memories haunt me again
Hear a voice
It sounds like water
Visions make me slip away

All around,the forest growls
While the whispers fill my head
Falling down into a stream of ages
Visions make me slip away

That every day,
I realized the fire burning
Out,as far as I could see
I feel into a silent morning
It's hard to tell,but I say:
Whatever it was,it makes me fear
Invisible for the rest
But I recall it all so clear

These times of joy,these times of wonder
Like a lost edge inside our dreams
It makes me wonder:
What is life,what does it mean?

Rise again,
For your fate will always follow you
No more cries,no hurt and pain
See the future like never before

Undress your sorrow
Leave the past all behind
Time to be free!

Falling drops against the window
I took a while to feel awake
Moving clouds is this dream never ends...

Sounds,they pierce through like an arrow
Hear my voice,it beats like rain
Memories,I'll carry them away...

These times of joy,these time of wonder (...)

Time to be free,give me time to be free...
I need some time to be free

09. Rescue

Music by Andre Matos
Lyrics by -DaN-
What if you could unlock your dreams?
Could you perceive what they mean?
The nights are clear, the days so dark
But there's a way out there...

Whatever comes into your mind
May be the answers trapped inside
You feel a cold cut through your veins
But there's a way out there...

Alone you go into the darkness

You feel the fear of someone else
A broken picture from the past
The telling traces in your hands
But there's a way out there...

Alone you go into the darkness

- What you're searching for...
Struggling for you sanity
- Is knocking at your door...
Dream inside reality!

The more you will find,
The less you will get...
Lost tears never cried
Will drown you in the end
You've got nowhere to hide
You've got nothing to give
Who'll rescue now your will to live?

Along your life you never felt an inch of pain
Because you never realized you're still the same!
You asked me why but I'm afraid to let you know
It was your pride that made you fall so far below...

- What you're searching for...

"The more I could find
The less I could get
Tears never cried
Drowned me in the end
I spread nothing but lies
I had no love to give
Who'll rescue my will to live?"

10. A New Moonlight

Music by Andre Matos
Lyrics by -DaN-
Lifestorm broke my anchors
And like a wreck I've been
Sea and sky were just one darkness
Such a brilliant radiance you came

I'm alive, I'm alive
Just by the light
From your eyes

Lifestorm freed my anchors
Many shores I've seen
Sea and sky, they gave me shelter
Now we only meet in dreams

I'm alive, I'm alive
Just by the light
From your eyes

And I need you to be
Like the haven that I seek

But clouds showed me and I saw
You were just the moonlight
And the moon belongs to no one

Suddenly, I stare and see
The light in you still shines on me
Pouring down, endlessly

11. Endeavour

Music by Andre Matos
Lyrics by -DaN-
The aftermath of disaster
Strikes down to the Earth
Time is life's destroyer
A transitionally mixing
Connecting us all
As we split forever in two
And the wheels keep turning...

Suspended in time
As you glide through the air
See your body below you
Feelings no longer hurt
No more fears within
Let me fly together with you
And the wheels keep turning...

Stand forever in the rain
Watch the sun
Break through the sky
If this world has let you down
Take a leap to higher ground
Cause your heart will never die!

Conscience wakes to remind you
The rule of the game
There's no turning back now
You'll become someone else
Your perceptions will change
Let me change forever with you
And the wheels keep turning...

Stand forever in the rain

These nights of thunder
Won't come back
Just disappeared
These nights of thunder, so dark
Made visions become clear!

Endeavour always
Leads so far
Beyond scene
Endeavour always sows love...
The struggle ends up here!

12. Separate Ways (Words Apart)

Music by S. Perry/ J. Cain
Lyrics by -DaN-
Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground
I'm reaching for you, you, you

Feelin' that it's gone
Can change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide love divides

Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched
And went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched
And went our separate ways

Troubled times
Caught between confusions and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, in vain, in vain

If you must go, I wish you love
You'll never walk alone
Take care my love
Miss you love

(chorus twice)

I still love you girl
I really love you girl
And if he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
No, No
