02. A Secret To Reveal Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
They all live it seems
In perfect harmony But the truth seems to be concealed Until the curtain falls All the hidden thoughts remain a mystery Everyone has a secret to reveal I wonder what your worst would be Everyone has a secret to reveal What would I see what would I find? If I entered your mind What would you see what would you find? And if you entered mine Dark shadows live in the corners of my mind Hidden inside dwells hate of every kind For all those who dare to cross my path Some day will witness my wrath They all live it seems In perfect harmony But the truth seems to be concealed Until the curtain falls All the hidden thoughts remain a mystery Everyone has a secret to reveal I wonder what your worst would be Everyone has a secret to conceal I wish you'd confide yours to me 03. Save Us From Ourselves Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
Start thinking if truth is what you see
Evidence for the light of day The dark of night, just a curtain A single thought, never to be spoken Struggling with a creeping cognition God gave and God takes Everyone you love, everyone you hate Every sinner and every saint An endless quest, tired and distressed No wish more desired An endless quest, tired and distressed No question more unanswered Holy war for your redemption Controlled and commanded False responsibility And ancient slavery Save us from ourselves Holy war for your redemption Controlled and commanded False responsibility And ancient slavery Save us from ourselves 10,000 days in the fire and no one ever saw the truth An endless quest, tired and distressed No wish more desired An endless quest, tired and distressed No question more unanswered The engine of joy and suffering Nowhere else to run Holy war for your redemption Controlled and commanded False responsibility And ancient slavery Save us from ourselves 04. A Serenade To The Sea Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
I welcome the beautiful night
I am happy to be all alone And I welcome the heavenly light I am happy to be all alone Oh I want you to be right at my side But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride Oh I want you to be right at my side But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride I see you drown there in the sea And watch you die While lying in the sun Lying in the sun Oh how I wish you were here right at my side Love at first sight, love at first sight I welcome the beautiful night I am happy to be all alone And I welcome the heavenly light I am happy to be all alone Oh I want you to be right at my side But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride Oh I want you to be right at my side But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride 05. Among The Demons Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
I saw you in a corner
A shadow against the wall Hidden beside the cradle Nobody saw you crawl You lingered in the dark Always by my side You taught me in my dreams Protecting me while I sleep Strengthening myself Hardening my will But now that I grew older You vanished without a trace Without any trace Where are you now? I'm seeking for you to rely on Where have you gone? I summon your protection my demon Where are you now? I'm waiting for you all night long Where have you gone? There is no other reason to go on Cornered by gloomy figures Call upon your assistance Step out of the dark Ripping further existence Your grin was in my face Your strength was in my bones Your confidence possessed me You were like my best friend You lingered in the dark Always by my side You taught me in my dreams Protecting me while I sleep Where are you now? I'm seeking for you to rely on Where have you gone? I summon your protection my demon Where are you now? I'm waiting for you all night long Where have you gone? There is no other reason to go on 06.

07. Autumn Infinity Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
Don't accuse me of things
I haven't done at all Just look who's talking now You are the one to blame Don't put the saddle on the wrong horse I will not bear the blame You cocooned a mesh of lies It is elucidated now You will see that in the end I will come back at you You will see that in the end Who is paying the dues? Born in a flicker world of lies and get into it On a mote of dust Suspended in a sunbeam It's your fault, your fault alone It's not mine It's your fault, your fault alone It's not mine I am so sick of all your can't It is all just empty talk I just want to get rid of you The prosecution rests You will see that in the end I will come back at you You will see that in the end Who is paying the dues? Born in a flicker world of lies and get into it On a mote of dust Suspended in a sunbeam It's your fault, your fault alone It's not mine It's your fault, your fault alone It's not mine 08. Coma Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
As the rain falls down
And the kingdom falls asleep When the bridges are burning And the kingdom falls asleep I start to fix the light I crash the beautiful day To punish the weakness inside And getting stronger Coma, please pray for mercy A mass disease Blood is pumping through your veins Try to kill the insane While health is growing And the bridges are burning Coma, please pray for mercy A mass disease Coma, a parasite your last glorious march Coma, a paradise wait til death do us part Gasping for air, watch you die See this life come to an end, come to an end Oh my God Coma, a parasite your last glorious march Coma, a paradise wait til death do us part Blood is pumping through your veins Try to kill the insane While health is growing And the bridges are burning Coma, please pray for mercy A mass disease Coma, a parasite your last glorious march Coma, a paradise wait til death do us part 09. Indignation Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
She stares into the fire
A fire with no flames She stares into the fire A fire with no flames What you wish to kindle in others Must burn within yourself A mass of icy crystals She sees in front of her No warmth to hold on to Just cold and frost remain What you wish to kindle in others Must burn within yourself But then she goes to the empty riverside Where she wants to leave everything behind Her inner strength is lost Vanished into thin air Her hand stretched out Shivering with cold What you wish to kindle in others Must burn within yourself But then she goes to the empty riverside Where she wants to leave everything behind 10. Existence Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
She has lost her grace
A grace that seemed so dear She has trailed away Desperately She has lost her faith A faith that seemed sincere She has lost ground Desperately She has lost her grace Lost ground and hope and faith Mournful melodies take her far, far away She has lost her hope A hope that disappeared She has trailed away Desperately She has lost her peace This peace allayed her fears She has lost ground Desperately She has lost her grace Lost ground and hope and faith Mournful melodies take her far, far away All that remains are mournful melodies Saddening you All that remains are melancholic sounds Making you forlorn She has lost her grace Lost ground and hope and faith Mournful melodies take her far, far away 11. Silhouette Music by Lutz de Putter Lyrics by Birgit Lau & Lutz de Putter
The crimson sea
Reflects my silhouette Embrace all the tears I've ever shed All the tears I've shed The shallow ground Surrounds my feet I can't find no sleep The whitecaps look like crowns Of long forgotten kings May they rest in peace The breezes of the night wind Are whispering your name May you rest in peace Thus you prowl In the realm of the dead Your fading memory Reflected in my head As I wander Close beside the lake At least I am wide awake The whitecaps look like crowns Of long forgotten kings May they rest in peace The breezes of the night wind Are whispering your name May you rest in peace Thus you prowl In the realm of the dead Your fading memory Reflected in my head 12.
