[instrumental]

Stalking like a monster
In the desperate moonlight
There's a break inside the dawn
A window to your mind
Inside your reign of darkness
They go about their lives
You hold the key to life and death
Revolving doors decide

It is there you will appear
On the trail of blood tears

All the wounds inside they echo in the dark
All the secrets they are tearing you apart
In the perfect stranger's eyes as cold as stone
In a world of danger never walk alone

It's the evolution
In sickness you will hide
There's no sense of reason
In the black of your disguise
For the execution
The perfect way to die
There is no confusion
You've been here so many times

Do your killing on the run
No mercy for anyone

All the wounds inside they echo in the dark
All the secrets they are tearing you apart
In the perfect stranger's eyes as cold as stone
In a world of danger never walk alone
After all this time you're running from the light
In the face you see reflections of your life
It's the sign of darkness that you hold inside
After all you're just a victim of the night

All the wounds inside they echo in the dark
All the secrets they are tearing you apart
In the perfect stranger's eyes as cold as stone
In a world of danger never walk alone
After all this light you've stolen in the night
Still they haunt you with the echoes of their cries
Somewhere in the dark it makes you come alive
After all you're just a victim of the night

Down and out
Cold and drowned
Feeling tortured
A man within
But not without
My misfortune
Ran enough
To get this far
But my days are numbered
Far enough to tempt the gods
I hear the thunder
How I got here I don't know
There's a reason
That I'll always be
Alone

You never knew this
I lead a double life
Let me introduce you
To my other side
I'm on the neon streets
Out there selling disease
If you live or die
It means nothing to me
I don't wanna go away
But I can't face the light of day

Out of darkness
And into the night
As a life has turned so cold
Frozen in fear I've taken a life
A body without a soul
Running away from the midnight sun
Blinded while I scream
Nothing left to save me from
The war of untold dreams

I din't want this
But you left me no choice
A man with no voice
And suicide
Is a friend of mine
It's always there is I ever decide

I keep climbing all the way
I see the mountain miles away

Out of darkness
And into the night
As a life has turned so cold
Frozen in fear I've taken a life
A body without a soul
Running away from the midnight sun
Blinded while I scream
Crying out but the tears don't come
In the war of untold dreams

Out of darkness
And into the night
As a life has turned so cold
Frozen in fear I've taken a life
A body without a soul
Running away from the midnight sun
Blinded while I scream
Nothing left to save me from
The war of untold dreams

The silence breaks
The ending fades
Light escapes the empty days
So secretive
So well guarded
Losing everything
The way to you chose to live

In the maze you try
Your will has died
As time descends
You've broken all the ties
What will you be
What will you see
Your desperation
Shows things you bleed

If you live a lie

After all the time
You try to help yourself
I can see you're out there
Preparing the way
For a special place in hell
Will you find a way
To live it down
No looking back
Don't question anything
It's all over now

In the dark unknown
Secrets never shown
There's a guiding light
That leads to the unknown
In your lies it seemed
All the world believed
But time exposed
You ever- blinding greed

If you live a lie

After all the walls
You tried to walk right through
Always looking like you're invincible
With the fucked up things you do
Will you find a way
To live it down
No looking back
You never learned a thing
It's all over now

Returning through the past
Inside your never ending nightmare
No escaping
From the things you've done
Going way too fast
And all your days are just too much to bear
Screaming down a highway in the sun
Say goodbye to everyone

One more day in the distance
Lonely is the darkness
That you put yourself in
All the dreams you mention
In a whisper
Once forgotten never seen
They won't return again

Can't you see what's hiding
In reflections of your innocence
Disappearing as you look away
Years of isolation
In the silence of your dark abyss
Buried by the years
Of guilt and shame
There ain't no one else to blame

One more day in the distance
Desperate situations
That you put yourself in
All the dreams you mention
In a whisper
You dare to look but never see
They won't return again

Look inside the curse of creation
There you'll find the source of damnation
Through the eyes of those who passed beyond
They only speak by tearing us apart

When I first got word of the vision
Got a sense of a new religion
I lost all sense of the outside
I turned away from a normal life
Got my high from a force so vicious
Came alive with an act of vengeance
Now I never want to live without it
Got to finish what I started
Can you feel the power

Now we ride
Into the edge of night
To a world we've found
In the cover of darkness
Come lead us now
Eternal life is ours
Just submit your power
State your final vows
To the ghost of the devil

Wasn't long 'til I knew I could never die
Made friends with the dead of the other side
Took control of the situation
I can see their faces beckoning
I can hear their voices calling me

Can you taste the madness
Can you feel the laughter
Can you feel the life is fading
My final thoughts escaping

Now we ride
Into the edge of night
To a world we've found
In the cover of darkness
Come lead us now
Eternal life is ours
Just submit your power
State your final vows
To the ghost of the devil

Aware in silence
Listening to the echoes of your voice
Play inside my memory
Like moving stories
Flashing scenes of my life in a play
I see it right in front of me
Will I ever know the ending

Endless yearning
For something never meant to be discovered
Never to be seen
And in that moment
You will find that nothing has true meaning
The journey has no end

Somewhere
When it seems your life is bleeding
You become aware
That the voices are misleading
And you realize
With the darkness there is healing
There will be a time
When you find a deeper meaning
To it all

Misconceptions are truth in disguise
Stealing your life all those thoughts hypnotize
Running around but the damage is done
Chasing so hard but you can't overcome
The walls created in your mind
Don't be afraid of the chances at stake
You better take them before it's too late
Surrender the war that you're fighting
Because it doesn't matter anymore

Somewhere
When it seems your life is bleeding
You become aware
That the voices are misleading
And you realize
With the darkness there is healing
There will be a time
When you see it's out there waiting for you

Somewhere
When it seems your life is bleeding
Things can turn around
And give everything new meaning
And you realize
That there's always something waiting
You can see it now
When you find a deeper meaning to it all
To it all

Time
Coming to an end
Needing no reason
No purpose that life can defend
DOn't lie
It's there for all to see
Despite all intentions
We know what the ending will be
Will we ever see

It's the only world we've ever known
There's no telling what the future holds
If there's something that will never end
It's the guilt you carry deep within
Deep within your heart

Speak
Don0t show tour weakness
Actors and players
They all know the secret so well
You see
We're all just prisoners
They always told us
There'd always be something to trust
Will we ever see

It's the only world we've ever known
There's no telling what the future holds
If there's something that will never end
It's the guilt you carry deep within
Deep within your heart

We never know the answers
No one to protect us
You can't control the present
You'll never change the future

Somehow deep within our lives
Somehow protect the heart inside
Somehow leave the past behind

Leave
Don't you hesitate
No time for excuses
There's no god returning today
You'll be
Running through the maze
What's left of the traces
Of life you decided to face

It's the only world we've ever known
There's no telling what the future holds
If there's something that will never end
It's the guilt you carry deep within
Deep within your heart

Every single minute
Just like it's always been
I'm lost within it
Never knowing where it begins

Forever searching
Following this pain

Inside the darkest night
Shadows deep inside
They call my name
All the shades of sorrow will remain
Someday I want to show you everything
You've taken away from me

I'm not any different
Than the day I left the tears
I've gone the distance
The rest are drowning in fear

It's time
You see
Inside the distant pain
Release me from these chains

Inside the darkest night
Shadows deep inside
They call my name
All the shades of sorrow will remain
Someday I want to show you everything
You've taken away from me

Live beyond this life
As time fades away
The light creates this pain

Inside the darkest night
Shadows deep inside
They call my name
All the shades of sorrow will remain
Someday I want to show you everything
You've taken away from me

In your cold stare
Behind the veil of night
Lie your true intentions
And I quickly realize
I am captured
By your sacred shadow
I could disappear forever
And no one would ever know
Obsession stands before me now
Bleeding desire I've been hiding for so long
It's frightening
But I just don't care
Take me
Unchain me
Feed my despair

You got me lost in the wheels of confusion
Total submission is the game that you play
Using your ways to keep me lost in illusion
Nothing controls me like the pain
Of your sinister love

Take advantage
Of my addictions
Playing with fire
Tell me now what have I done
Your pretender
I surrender
Nowhere to hide
When our worlds collide

You got me lost in the wheels of confusion
Total submission is all I ca take
You got me spinning in a world of illusion
It's the way you're making me a slave
To your sinister love

I think I'm just a little more lonely
Then I was yesterday
My world's just a little more helpless
Thoughts they drift away
Acquainted with my own disaster
Familiar with the pain
The world's not turning any faster
So I think I'll end my stay

I remember how it felt
When I was standing in the rain
Looking 'round for any sign of you
But you were gone
Knowing in my heart
I'd never hear you softly say
I'm here with you
In the solitary rain

I've spent just a little time running
From things I0ve never seen
Are we sure that the end is coming
'Cause it doesn't bother me

I remember how it felt
Just like forever
There alone
Like I'd never make it back
To anything I've known
Back to where there's something
Come walk with me
In the solitary rain

I've come this far
And still I see
It's hard to realize
But I know the flame's still there
Until the light subsides
In unfamiliar places here alone
This cold dark place
I'm lost within
The mirror always proves
The past is shown

Sola Dolor
Tristitia
Et vanitate
Sola
Dolor
Tenebrarum
Solitarium

Fly away
Take me to a higher place
As I leave this life
I will see you there in time
