I'm still here
Against any logic There are no gates closed for me Now I will tell you my story Of a dream that made me free People, I address you Listen to my story Around the world it shall fly It's a song of doubts and fears, Song of love and glory The sheet is clean So, let us begin 02. Words Of Ashes
Surrounded by battle - death is everywhere -
I'm struck and I'm clenching my sword I know - it's impossible, but it seems so real, it's shattering my inner world It ain't easy part No light on my way The vision is fading, the feelings get dim, expelled by the pressure of dawn But my eyelids close, and I hear the voice - the voice I have already known Hear us calling! Open your mind! You must understand what you are. But words are ashes, their meaning's just dust - fading but leaving a scar It ain't easy part No light on my way These dreams burn my heart Real World's gone astray Strange voice breaks through the dark And lures up high Mercy! I lose control So die! Leave me alone! Strange voice breaks through the dark And lures up high Mercy! I lose control My world's turning upside down Your voice breaks through the dark And lures up high Mercy! I lose control So die! Hear us! Trust us! Open the gate! 03. Walk On The Edge
Keep inciting me
Unchain my heart One who lives in dark Needs a spark Keep inciting me, Insanity You live in my mind Only life in dreams Can make me free And dirt stays behind Dirt is oppressing me Save me, Dark I'm almost home But they call me back No! Deep inside in me I feel your breath My true only love I walk on the edge About to fall Cause I've got enough Oh God, please help me I close my eyes And regain my soul My life's in my hands... It's just a dream I'm just a passion Shadow I walk on the edge I'm free And my path lies across the line But I must return No! 04. All This Time (The Balancer's Song)
Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me. Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? [John Chapter 21] Balancer: -- Are you lost? I will show you the way, trust me! - Who are you? So many years ago I have chosen my path Without fear and doubt I keep on believing Every day I've lived Is burned with iron in my mind Age by age goes by And I feel old pain When I close again my eyes Pain of days I've lived So many years have passed I've been waiting for your birth A child with tainted blood Blood of the ancients That has slept through centuries Child of two worlds Child who is the key So I'm The guardian of light Keeping the spark of faith So bright Your way's The ancient line I close my eyes and see The sign All this time 05. My Noteless Blues
Yesterday it was so clear
Usual routine of life In vino veritas Who's gonna loose? Blood counts the time Of my noteless blues Tomorrow it has to be different It's obvious but so sudden... Head's getting heavy It's good news Heart beats the rhythm Of my noteless blues Marionette is who I am Driven by hand as if I'm blind Predestination is term of real question They've set figures and chosen the side for me "Oh chosen one come with me, And you fulfil your destiny" But I'm scared 'cause I can't see Blindfolded like sheep before the slaughter Dreams of the past are now coming true They are so close touch them by hand I don't know anything about this battle Who is my enemy who's friend "Chosen one come with me" It smells like a trap They promised to set me free But can i trust them The stakes are too high It is so close and real - my land of the free I believe my heart will be there The doors are closed My purpose is the key Can I go back - I don't care Walking though dreams Where the freedom lives How I wished to be there But now I'm afraid to be wrong Who am I in this game A Queen or a pawn? 06. Goodbye New World
Through the shadow comes another day
Time's up - no one can ever play with fate It's nice to feel you near - insanity Just one step - I've got my faith but I'm blind But the lights are out - curtain's down No turn around Goodbye, New World! Time to go My heart does not belong to you Goodbye, New World! I promise I do not turn back Your soul is dead, vain glory rules the ball You think my dreams are insanity My tears make you laugh and watch me with hostility Well I'm just a joker my share is misery Farewell! I will not wake you in your sleep Enjoy your routine - deep within - you're living machine Goodbye, New World! Time to go My heart is not a part of you Goodbye, New World! Some day you must look back and see What you have built You'll see just shattered souls Just one step - But I'm blind But the lights are out - curtain's down No turn around Goodbye, New World! Time to go My heart does not belong to you Goodbye, New World! I promise I do not turn back Your soul is dead, vain glory rules the ball 07. Return To Inner Self
I return to inner self
I've got power, I've gained sight I've forgotten my fear It was a ghost of lies I lived in a fake world And I was flying so high The dream dried my tears Living in my eyes But hope and love just cannot die so young They've got to live forever You have to rise up and fight To break away and fly fly so high Life dictates it's own rules If not agreed you can leave the game Maybe it's just an excuse Not to explore your inner self What is this freedom? What is personality? Using stranger's rules you'll never know it But hope and love can also die so young They've not to live forever Whose will has written this play Who's pressed that damned lie into my mind Where do you go? What is your freedom here? Do you know? You know... Hear the voice of soul It's the sign of hope Why do you go? Is freedom worth this price You win! And so?.. Just retreat Cause you cross the social law But dice is thrown It's my solution Too early for execution Mind revolution changes all. 08. The Escapist Hymn (Author's Notes)
This wonderful world is full of treats
Wait for your tomorrow But our share is fantasies and we live Walking through dreams We believe there are things in the world Worth fighting for again and again And does it really matter so much What other people say Down to the ground, fall from stars But this grey world is not for us We keep the faith and know That our souls live in the books we read again and again Wind of past Impales like cold steel We believe There is some place Unreal Place where honor's not just lies Where love has no sale price Where sun's shining! Look with your heart, not just the eyes When words of love are only just a cause When friendship is convenience and nothing more Can we respect advices and moral admonitions Of such Reality? Where days're dancing at the music of The Money Just one look back - and your life is through The grey machine wants another portion Are you sure it fits you? This is your life and your mind You're the owner of your fate Disperse the shadows Choose your path Nothing else can stop you from creating your own reality I don't have answers for all questions And solutions to change this crazy world My story is just an attempt to show That you are not alone I believe that dirt is not everywhere And harmony is somewhere very near And I don't care if they think I'm a madman I still believe This door's so close Reach outyour hand This book has no end Key's in your soul You are not alone Water grinds the stone Just believe 09. Epilogue (My Yellow Brick Road)
Now I have finished this book
It's time to turn the page But my story's just begun So I believe, so I hope No need to look back But fear of deception's chilling my civilized heart It tempts me with promises, drives me insane My Yellow Brick Road Like shine of gold Tempts greedy souls A step - it's harder as it gets clear It makes me feel alone Why do I still keep daydreaming Forget, restrain... But dreams come again It's hard to tell what's black or white, who's enemy or friend So let it be, there's no way back - I've crossed the line Now I see the long awaited sign No need to wait anymore - it's time Goodbye. |
