Allen/Lande - The Battle lyrics



Tracks



01. Another Battle

Lived in a nightmare never woke up
Searched for peace without result
Waited for changes that never came
Just another war and I got the blame

I don't wanna live in your cold world
I don't wanna hear your evil words
Find another one who plays your game
I'm sure everything will be the same

I won't fight another battle
I won't take this anymore
I won't give you any reasons
To not walk out thru that door

No moments left of calm silence here
My hope is long gone don't you come near
No more strength to argue again
To your disappointment I won't show any fear

I don't wanna live in your cold world...

I won't fight another battle...

02. Hunter's Night

The heavy air is hard to breathe
The night is challenging her
She's here because of greed

She feels the smell of fear
Sense it in the air
There's nowhere to run and there's nowhere to hide

Don't you look into her evil eyes
Don't touch her cold skin or you slowly will die
Don't be fooled by her friendly smile
Don't you follow her treacherous voice
That leads the fool into her arms

Here she comes
Chasing after your poor soul
She won't let your heart grow old
The hunter's night will last forever

No one out there knows she's here
Hurry before it is too late
Silent steps approaching you

Don't you look into her evil eyes...

Here she comes...

03. Wish For A Miracle

What on Earth makes you believe
The rescue will come now
What on Earth is that you have heard

A savior on his way to you
Coming out of nowhere
A knight in shining armour
Saving your life
Taking care of your strife

You can run and hide
Wait for better times
Until the dark clouds pass by
And you hear no more cries
You can tell more lies
Pretend that no one lives
And just think happy thoughts
Close your eyes and wish for a miracle

You can't escape the truth no more
You can not fool yourself
No one will listen to your stories again

Only you can make a change
Create a better time
Only you can save your own life
And keep up your strife

You can run and hide...

04. Reach A Little Longer

Many times I lost my hope
Forgot the reason why I started searching
Couldn't remember all my dreams
Couldn't see the beauty surrounding me

Take another deep breath
Don't look down keep your eyes closed
Let your dream completely take over
I know that I would never fall
I haven't come this far to quit right now
Give up here and now

I will give it one more try
Try to get closer to the sky
The time hasn't come for me to leave this place
How can surrender here
When my vision is so clear
I just have to reach
Reach a little longer
Reach a little longer

Passing through this life with no faith
Unaware of the world around
Try to recall why I came
Try to remember why I'm here

Take another deep breath...

I will give it one more try...

Many times I lost my hope
Forgot the reason why I started searching

I will give it one more try...

05. Come Alive

In an empty room
Without any door
All is painted black
And it seems like there is no way out

Wake up from this dream
Knowing it's not true
Knowing everything is fake
But I cannot loose the pain I feel
Even if I know it's not real

I can pray every day
And all night just to hear you say
The words that make my world slow down
The words that make me live
I can pray every day
And all night just to see you smile
A smile that makes my life go on
A smile that makes my heart and soul
Come alive
Come alive

Outside this dark room
Beyond the stonewall
In a place I can't see
You are sitting there and waiting for me

I'm trying to imagine
Your face in front of me
I'm trying to remember
The sound of your soft warm voice
Giving me the strength I need

I can pray every day...

06. Truth About Our Time

I won't tell
I won't show
I won't give them what they want
No one else will find our little secret

Not a word
My lips are sealed
It won't help to torture me
No kind of pain will make me talk this night

Try to see it my eyes
But I will only give you lies
You should know that this is only a waste of time
Try to read it from my mind
There is nothing you will find
Before you really understand

When we all believe
I will give you answers
We will all deceive
The truth about our time

Never too late to change your ways
Never too late to change your mind
No need to keep your secret to yourself

No more time to fool around
No more time for stupid games
The moment has come to let it out

Try to see it my eyes...

When we all believe...

07. My Own Way Home

There is no one here to ask
No one here will guide
And show me where to go
Who am I to know
Too many crossroads in my way
Too many unanswered questions left
I can't remember how I came here

But I won't loose my faith
I never have I never will
I won't give up I'm gonna find my own way home
But I won't loose my faith
I never have I never will
I won't give up I need to find my own way home

Many days and nights have passed
Many miles I walked in way
The world is silent here. I can only hear my heart beat
There is no life in sight not a sound of hope
It seems so far right now to my horizon

But I won't loose my faith...

A journey without an end
I'm reaching for the world
I travel over unknown land
As I cry inside my lonely soul

But I won't loose my faith...

08. Ask You Anyway

When your eyes are growing cold
And your smile is far away
All your dreams are feeling old
No more words left here to say
But I wish that you would stay
Maybe I will ask you anyway

It's hard to remember
A life without a lie
A life made up of honesty
It's hard to recall now
A day without pain
A day just filled with pleasure

When all the beauty disappears
And all that's left are my fears
I gather the last of my strength

When your eyes are growing cold...

I can't believe you
I can not trust your words
There's no way you can speak the truth
Just turn your back now
Just turn and walk away
Don't even look into my eyes

When all the beauty disappears...

When your eyes are growing cold
And all the beauty disappears
All your dreams are feeling old
And I'm left with all my fears
Now your smile is far away
But I gather all my strength
No more words left here to stay
But I wish for you to stay
Maybe I will ask you now
Maybe I don't wanna know
Maybe I will ask you anyway

When all the beauty disappears...

When your eyes are growing cold...

09. Silent Rage

Refuse to see the misery
Don't you hear the crying souls
Refuse to give a helping hand
You give me no choice but to show you the world around you
Show you a life in pain
There is a war going on here
Right before your eyes
I wonder why
You keep denying
The silent rage going on now

Don't walk away
You need to stay, yeah
The silent rage won't be silent
Silent no more

Refuse to see the sadness
Don't you see the bleeding hearts
Refuse to give them a second thought
You give me no choice but to show you the world around you
Show you a life in pain
There is a war going on here
Right before your eyes

I wonder why
You keep denying
The silent rage going on now
Don't walk away
You need to stay, yeah
The silent rage won't be silent
Silent no more
Silent no more

10. Where Have The Angels Gone

I remember all your promises
I remember all your words
You told me life could change in for the better
I shouldn't believe in what I've heard

In a blink of an eye
Everything happens
Be patient now

Where have all the angels gone
Where are all the miracles they've done
Can you answer me now
I wanna know I wanna know
Where have all the angels gone
Where are all the miracles they've done
Can you answer me now
I wanna know

Counting the hours I've been waiting
Counting the lies that I've been told
Am I the only one who's searching
Searching for a miracle of gold

In a blink of an eye
Everything happens
Be patient now

Where are all the angels gone...

11. Universe Of Light

Behind the clouds
Beyond the deep shadows that surround us
Another world is growing
Behind the walls made of stone
Beyond the fences holding us
Another life is waiting

Never listen to their lies
Don't give the dark side that they want
Never trust their evil smile
Don't ever let your fear rule
Don't hide from the cruel

We all will break our ties
And open our eyes
To see a new age world
We will rule our life
And keep up our strife
For a new age world
A universe of light

After the night and far beyond the evil minds surrounding us
Another world is growing
After this war and far beyond the guardians who are watching us
Another life is waiting

Never listen to their lies...

We will break our ties...

12. The Forgotten Ones

No one here to save you now
No one here to guard your soul
Only emptiness ahead
Waiting for your fear to win

But there is someone who remembers you
Someone waiting for a sign that leads the way to you
Someone who would die for you
Keep that in mind when the hope fails

When the world starts to cry
And the life around you slowly dies
The forgotten ones will see
How you seek how you try
To save a unknown life from pain
The forgotten ones will know

No one here to wipe your tears
No one here to ease your grief
Only a deep darkness ahead
Waiting for the hope to leave

But there is someone who remembers you...

When the world starts to cry...
