02. Sacrimony (Angel Of Afterlife) Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
A passing life each day a carving on the wall
It's like a night without awakening The truth is lost and maybe never to be found Like the shadows of my pantomime When all the world is gathered for the final feast Will there be someone to believe in me? Voices echoing in my distorted mind Is this for real or just a dream? It all becomes clear The Truth will appear Forever I'm there for you and sing... (Am I losing my mind? I am not afraid, my dear) Sing for me angel of afterlife calming me down Chaos inside my nebula And make the wrong turn to right in a celestial light Forgive my sacrimony Tell me what they say that I'm supposed to know Tell me every little detail Make truth appear for me as distant memories Like pictures on a silver screen It all becomes clear The truth will appear Forever a debt for you and me And now leave me alone Erase my memory Don't want to hear, don t want to see Don't want to think about the lie that follows me All becomes clear But no one will hear my testimony I am your angel of afterlife calming you down Silence inside your nebula And when the wrong turns to right in a celestial light Forgive testimony (Ring around a rosie, A pocketful of posies, Ashes, ashes We all fall down) 03. Ashes To Ashes Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
Ravished from our Paradise
A crack in the mirror I know who's to blame So full of life but paralyzed Etched on my iris But I try not to think of it all... We swore to god in VERITAS And burned our skin like it burned our souls One dealt with grief by causing pain She hid behind maple and built her own fortress of sound Hear this melody almost forgotten Hush I've been waiting a lifetime to show you Youre returning to heaven Like dust to dust I've been waiting forever to witness your fading like ashes to ashes Forbidden dance on fragile skin Why do you shine as I suffer in pain? The greatest scars remain within Leaving you now with a heart black as cardinal sin Fear this melody almost forgotten Hush I've been waiting a lifetime to show you You're returning to heaven Like dust to dust I've been waiting forever to witness your fading Like ashes to ashes Hate... My solution Fate... An illusion 04. Torn Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
Like a pendant on the neck of a queen
10.000 scars an embrace of the stone As we dance on a steady canopy Accuse me fool me take all my pain away my friend Singing my final song of honor Betrayed but still I never came around to open my mind I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of fate Born to regret Still denied by the spirits of hell A call to repent Til the visions still stand in silence, like a shadow Like a martyr that is nowhere to be seen 10.000 stars I have prayed for "The Calm" As we drift on this never ending sea Clear me keep me take all my pain away my friend Singing my final song of glory Betrayed but still I finally came around and opened my eyes I was... I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of fate Born to regret Still denied by the spirits of hell A call to repent Til the visions still stand in silence Like a shadow Safe from harm Torn by the thorns in my head Like a victim of violence A call to repent Denied by the spirits of heaven Take me up again To the music of dawn I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of fate Born to regret Still denied by the spirits of hell A call to repent Til the visions still stand Like a shadow 05. Song For Jolee Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
There's a shadow in the cold white light of day
I hope that someday you forgive and set me free While standing in the pearl white light, Jolee is lost I wrote an letter to the angels, to follow me into the light again. Underneath the velvet letters of my heart Always will remind me that I'm hurt and sad... I'm sorry but I can't stop the bleeding Crying and it's all because of you. One look in the mirror to see What's real and fake... Jolee... There's a princess captured in a wooden frame. I'd trade eternity for one last look at you. Not playing by the rules We played the game of loss... I'll keep on writing to the angels So you're safe til the moment we meet again. Underneath the make-up The scars that seal my heart The unspeakable reminder That I'm hurt and sad I'm sorry but I can't stop the bleeding Crying and it's all because of you. One look in the mirror to see, What's real and fake... Jolee... One look in the mirror to see What's real and fake Jolee... 06. Veritas Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
In the mirror
My reflection Lies to me That is not the man I want to see But every harvest Takes me closer to my aim I will be there As soon as darkness falls My life is but a heartbeat away And all you ever had will soon belong to me In morte ultima veritas "In Death the final truth" You will kneel before me And you will confess that I am God In morte ultima veritas Send me your prayers But death is the answer to life While your wailing's Feed my anger I stay calm Cause I am shite that you Won't let me down Fading gently To the sound I can't forget And don't you know That when the music dies My life is but a heartbeat away And all you ever had will soon belong to me My life so short but innocent It allways will remain... And all I know is It was good My childhood memories... I was blessed to live Please... please let it die Or brothers this is my last goodbye I am begging you please... 07. My Confession Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
Give me a sign
Sing the words of innocence and broken pride Make my conclusions fail Send me a sign... Heal this broken melody Cause each night I die in hell My God has shown his sympathy For all the spirits lost I've prayed for salvation and peace for ages Standing in the summerbreeze Inhaling life again A new day has come A chance to relive Forget and forgive Somehow I wasted all They sealed my voice and wisdom But my soul was born On the battleground Justice in blood... Long awaited victory And tonight you die in hell Somebody hides inside my mind We're bound together But this is my confession Soulmate or enemy a thorn in my religion Release my heart Unfold my tounge Sace a place for me in heaven We'll meet another day I found forgivness And the meaning of it all My fear is gone... Gone... 08. Silverthorn Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
Curse or repayment?
Truth or illusion? (In my) noble asylum When dark hours linger The sinister silence Is bowed into millions of tears The sweetness of sound Turns to raging thunder A deadly serenade in the moonlight the bringer of pain like fear on a silverplate I am frozen betrayed by myself When will this end?... Same old pavilion A different appearance Is playing messiah All good was taken A thorn made of silver Abandoned my will to go on Life is a flower Fading away We are not destined to stay love is forever The spirit is fee Time is a borrowed gift for you and me... 09. Falling Like The Fahrenheit Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Katsionis, Paeth, Karevik & Palotai
Let me play a melody for you
While searching for the light And a way to live forever Your flaws make sure you never contemplate And see the consequense Of trying to survive Like the shadows in my head You will play that ghost again... Do you think salvation waits for you? As I lay you down to sleep All your tears are mine to keep... Falling like the fahrenheit Someone will always lose You will never see another sunrise My cyanide in paradise That someone's always you I will never see another sundown in your eyes Let me share a memory with you Imprisoned in the sound Let us dream away together Every single note is bound to send A flower from this world To wither with a smile Give me a sign To take what is rightously mine... Give me the secrets that you keep (feed me) I will save them for noone else to see 10. Solitaire Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
On a dim december morning
A glass of "I forgot the name" I can't turn wine to water I won't come back again And the minutes turn to hours I keep spinning cards that look the same And I so await the moment to talk to you... Please shine, my dear - embrace me It's time again All light is banned My soul is free And blessed to see Sometimes when I'm out of reach And sometimes when I'm there That is when our souls agree and join in solitaire Sometimes when my will to love has gone away That is when I hear you name Now the pale sunlight is blinding It's here to claim my sanity And I just can't stand the waiting To revive ecstasy Please shine oh night My dear - embrace me Sometimes when I'm put of reach And sometimes when I'm there That is when our souls agree to join in solitaire Sometimes when my will to love Has gone away That is when I hear your name I won't sustain another day My love, my darkness Daylight reflects my starving soul And open wounds for everyone to see 11. Prodigal Son Music & lyrics by Youngblood, Palotai, Paeth & Tommy Karevik
Part I - Funerale
Essence of beauty Taken to soon Princess of hope Deep in our hearts you live on Essence of goodness Godess of life Give us the power/Give us the reason God give us strength to live on Essence of beauty Taken to soon Princess of hope Deep in our hearts you live on Essence of goodness Godess of life Give us the power/Give us the reason God give us strength to live on Part II - Burden of Shame How could this happen? Of what have we done? Will our tears ever pay for our sin? Mother give us We need all your love To fight and to carry The burden of shame (The branding) Hereby we swear For as long as we live We will not soil our name The truth made of iron Will seal it with pain Until death our secrets remains Part III - The Journey A minute away but worls/oceans apart Borhters in blood now divided in heart By grief and sorrow one is striving To repay Behind the palisade he lives his destined life The music and the tears are piercing Through the walls Turn to nightmares and there is no escape at all Oh joyful childhood you died so young... Every child follows blind On the journey we call life Learning every day (Learning with every step) Given love or given hate Determines everybodies fate in life Be careful what you give... A stranger to love and affection On the run In search of shelter in the solitude of sin A drifter in the dark soldier Of the pain A constant slave under the belt of misery Oh joyful childhood you died so young On the journey we call life Learning every day (Learning with every step) Given love or given hate Determines everybodies fate in life Be careful what you give... 12.

26. Grace
Watch me passing through
Your odd dimension You're standing there Carrying the cross that I gave I'm a northern light The stars above you I whisper your name Oh, feeling strange You're falling down from grace And feeling kinda strange It's not over You're falling down from grace And feeling kinda strange It's not over Come and breathe inside My celestial sphere Feel the rush in your fragile flesh I can feel your anxiety Restless mind Searching for love to embrace You're falling down from grace And feeling kinda strange It's not over You're falling down from grace And feeling kinda strange It's not over Don't despise me I am the truth Don't be indifferent You won't be condemned Will I ever reach you If I open my arms You lose, you die Turning my heart into stone You're falling down from grace You're feeling kinda strange It's not over You're falling down from grace And feeling kinda strange It's not over 27. Leaving Too Soon (Japanese Bonus Track)
Close your eyes and count to ten
I dare you I will catch your fall It takes a dreamer to believe Make a wish and take a stand I promise the world to you The sun will paint you face with gold Saying you don't have to live afraid Because we're all leaving too soon In a moment of sobriety we learn to see We are not meant to stay for eternity Don't use the time you have to dream away Weigh the future in your hand Tomorrow, today has gone to sleep Only to wake up yesterday Cross the borders of your land The soil beneath will crumble The sun will light the fire in your eyes again Saying you don't have to die afraid Because we're all leaving too soon In a moment of sobriety we learn to see We are not meant to stay for eternity Don't use to time you have to dream away Because we're all leaving too soon In a moment of sobriety we learn to see We are not meant to stay for eternity So use the life you have to live your dream |
