Tracks



01. Veterans Of The Apocalypse

Unleash the end
Spell out portents
Make these mere mortals afraid
For their soul

Counting the days
The final blaze
Hand over earthly remains
We're in control

Oh, we will give you payment for your sins
Unless you pay before the end begins

Time after time, fall for the end of the world again
We will show you the way
Lead you as long as you say amen
Gather round to us
Listen and start to believe
We are the veterans of the apocalypse

Misread the signs
End of all times
Wait for a new shining light
And a new day

Oh, we will give you payment for your sins
Unless you pay before the end begins

Time after time, fall for the end of the world again
We will show you the way
Lead you as long as you say amen
Gather round to us
Listen and start to believe
We are the veterans of the apocalypse

02. The Path

Information overload
Brains are melting down
What is right and what is wrong
Who really owns the crown?

Too many words of faith
Cover up the truth in lies
Confusion.
Delusion
The devil in disguise

Under your bed you'll crawl
And deep asleep you'll fall

Dream about the pouring rain
Rain that makes you feel alive
Dream about the shining light
Your power to survive
You will always find your way back to your home
This is the path you'll always roam

You're lost but you're never alone
Now it's time to choose your side
There's one with the glowing eyes
Don't you dare to trust his lies
You will find the right solution
By listening to your heart
Decision.
Your vision
Will make you depart

Under your bed you'll crawl
And deep asleep you'll fall

Dream about the pouring rain
Rain that makes you feel alive
Dream about the shining light
Your power to survive
You will always find your way back to your home
This is the path you'll always roam

Under your bed you'll crawl
And deep asleep you'll fall

Dream about the pouring rain
Rain that makes you feel alive
Dream about the shining light
Your power to survive
You will always find your way back to your home
This is the path you'll always roam

You roam
You roam

03. Fire And Ice

Every time I see the sun go down
I can feel the fear that's all around
Knowing there won't be another soul for me
Talking to myself. Telling all the lies.
It will be alright, I will survive
Just need a sign to make me believe

And when the clock strikes midnight
I can hear your voice calling my name

Through the endless years I still have the drive
Never thought that I could be alive
To see, feel you again

And when the clock strikes midnight
I'm still awake and finally realize

Ooh you're my fire and ice
My pleasure and pain that I'm keeping inside
Crushing me down while taking me higher.
You are the fuel that inspires
Ooh you're my fire and ice
Salvation, damnation it's all in your eyes
The pain that I feel, the love I desire
Will you set me free?

I'm on the verge, I'm going to fall
The separation kills me, slowly from the core

And when the clock strikes midnight
I shed tears of joy and sorrow

04. Through The Pain

Close your eyes and let go of your past
Our flame's burning bright
Don't worry, I don't want to make it last
It's just for tonight

You run away from emptiness
And dream about being found
Now let's surrender to shamelessness
You and I will be unbound

We'll go, go with the flow
Losing control, it's time to let go

Give me your heart, give me your soul
You'll feel alive again, take my hand, I'll set you free
I will take your through the pain with me

Once you flew but longed to soar
Now you are tumbling down
Like a slave, you crawl back for more
Once a queen, you've lost your crown

We'll go, go with the flow
Losing control, it's time to let go

Give me your heart, give me your soul
You'll feel alive again, take my hand, I'll set you free
I will take your through the pain with me

I've got no heart, I've got no soul
I came here to play my role
I will never set you free
I will take you through the pain with me

Now take my hand and walk with me
You've got no choice, oh, can't you see
I feel your hear, while you pull me closer
Let me feel your burning heart

05. Walk Away Free

Can you see an angel falling far from the sky
Diving through the clouds
Can you hear its final cry
He's coming to set you free, destroying your world
Leaving you alone, with the pain you don't deserve

Run for your life, run for yourself
There's no one you can save anymore

Is this the day that you will fade away?
Is this the moment when the truth decays?
No one cares, you will see
You must fight until you'll walk away free

You see the faces of despair and endless fear
The look that's in their eyes, sorrow without a tear
And when it's time to leave on a ship without a sail
You know the same old story, dead men tell no tales

Run for your life, run for yourself
There's no one you can save anymore

Is this the day that you will fade away?
Is this the moment when the truth decays?
No one cares, you will see
You must fight until you'll walk away free

06. Higher

Ooh, my soul is on fire, yeah
Broken and burned, a life on the wire
Ooh, I feel myself falling
Carried away, where the darkness is calling

In the hours of night I keep calling your name
On my knees I cry out: come set me free

Come take me higher (higher)
Take me higher (higher)

Ooh, I'm yours to devour
Embrace my pain, and give me your power

On my knees I cry out: come set me free

Higher (higher)
Come take me higher (higher)

In the hours of night I keep calling your name
On my knees I cry out
Bleeding words from my mouth
On my knees I cry out: come set me free

Come take me higher (higher)
Higher

07. Wounds

In the darkest night I call our your name
What I have done, it's not a game
The feeling is gone, I just can't deny
That is why I have to say goodbye

You have to understand what I have done
Deep in my heart there's only one
I'm not the same man anymore
It's hurting me down to my core

Set me free, let me go on my way
I have to make this journey on my own
Let me go, I will always be free
Time will be the only cure for my wounds

As the days go by, and you get older
Time will tell if you need a shoulder
Now walk your own way, head up high
Make sure you don't let your life pass by

Set me free, let me go on my way
I have to make this journey on my own
Let me go, I will always be free
Time will be the only cure for my wounds

08. Days Of Our Lives

Memories, what used to be
The silent past is haunting me
What did I see? What did I feel?
Was it real or just a dream?
I believe, I was free, not the shell that's left of me
I could tell, I could feel.
Who I was, where I had been

Misery, my company, for the life I did not live
Agony? Ecstasy? At least more than self-deceit
I'm too afraid to burn again

These are the days of our lives
The time to be alive
Get wings and learn to fly
Soar up in the sky
These are the days of our lives
The time to be alive
Get wings and learn to fly

09. Barren Land

Walking through the barren land
Never-ending sea of sand
Million miles away from home, future unknown
Dying sun before the dawn
Its tears of hope keep falling strong
Northern star, oh so far like a beacon in the sky

The voices from the other side
Calling me for the final ride

Is this a curse from down below?
My punishment will only grow
Who decides if I live or if I fade away?

The voices from the other side
Calling me for the final ride

I have always wandered on my own
Searching in vain for some way to atone
This will be the journey of my life
I will survive, although I'm torn
I'll carry on until I find where I belong

Morning rays cut through the dream
Welcome to reality
Another pitch black night behind, I feel alive again
The taste of blood is on my lips
The burning sun tears me to strips
I have to leave, I still believe that I'll find my way home

The voices from the other side
Calling me for the final ride

I have always wandered on my own
Searching in vain for some way to atone
This will be the journey of my life
I will survive, although I'm torn
I'll carry on until I find where I belong

"If our impulses were confined to hunger, thirst, and desire
We might be nearly free;
But now we are moved by every wind that blows
And a chance word or scene that that word may convey to us?
Thus strangely are souls constructed,
And by slight ligaments are we bound to prosperity and ruin?
I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel?"

I have always wandered on my own
Searching in vain for some way to atone
This will be the journey of my life
I will survive, although I'm torn
I'll carry on until I find where I belong
