Here I stand before you all
This body's been beaten and battered
But I will not fall
Time - It may change me
As I look back upon this cold life
I see nothing but misery
Push me: Pull me:
I will not turn away
All this: Pain will:
Prove fruitful one day
You'll see
As I stand I see legions before me
They drink and they dance
In the night
Without thinking I unsheathe my sword
My body is ready to fight
I Walk into the fire
They say that I've sunk so low
But my goal lies much higher
I will, Not lie
Down in the grave
If they, Want me
I am not afraid
Tempting Providence once again
I fall to my knees and my hands
Tempting providence
When will this madness end
You made me the man that I am...
Now
That I am old and wise
The fire has dimmed to a wisp
But I'm still alive
Oh
The end is much closer
I never thought I'd see the day
When it would be over
Hold me, Tell me today is the day
All this, Pain will soon go away
Tempting Providence once again
I fall to my knees and my hands
When will this nightmare end
Tempting providence once again
This nightmare will soon reach its' end

I look into the black horizon
The more I see the more I know
I try to justify the wars won
But that won't satisfy my soul
I hold the future in my hand
But I could easily destroy
I see the footprints in the sand
They seem to vanish in the void
Can I walk away
Can I choose to stay
Feel I'm getting near
Voices that I hear
Sail away, follow the sacred heart
Chase the sun, one with the moon and stars
Sail away, You'll find the promised land
In your hand, there is a New Millennium
I wish wouldn't have to worry
About the life that lies ahead
But when the present turns tomorrow
I shall remember what they said
Feel I'm getting near
Voices that I hear
Sail away, follow the sacred heart
Chase the sun, one with the moon and stars
Sail away, you'll find the promised land
In your hand, there is a New Millennium

Seize this regal day
Your time has come
Reach for the crown
Take all that you can
Its your time to become the King
Its time to take
All that life has to give to you
Look towards the heavens search you soul
It will tell you the truth that I'm told
Brave men will fight
Weak men will always die
Never to reach the the top of the mountainside
Look through these King's Eyes
What do you see?
Fortune and glory and triumphs to be
Look through these King's Eyes
What do they tell?
Your desire will never be killed
There's a certain feeling you get
At the moment you know you're the one
That sets the course of your own destiny
Controlled by you alone feel it rise
Inside your heart
The winning force at hand reach for the crown
Take all that you can
You can do anything
You can be king
Don't be controlled
Master your own destiny
Brave men will fight
Weak men will always die
Never to reach the the top of the mountainside
Look through these King's Eyes
What do you see?
Fortune and glory and triumphs to be
Look through these King's Eyes
What do they tell?
Your desire will never be killed
Look through these eyes...

Freedom fires burning
Mighty kingdoms shall rise
Crystal ships have returned
Like pawns on a distant shore
There's a cold empty place inside
Where you know there's no end
Mighty storm mighty storm
Stirs from the skies above
Like a cold chill rushed upon my face
Searching - for what awaits us
Set a course for a new shore
For what tomorrow will bring
Plunging the northern seas
Winds fill the sails
As we approach another world
That time has forgotten me
The sun blinds and circles me
No man is an island
No footsteps have walked these shores
Discoveries on virgin soil
Let the Expedition begin
Searching - for what awaits us
Set a course for a new shore
For what tomorrow will bring

Spinning twisting in my hand
I hold the key to this wasteland
I've been searching it for you
Don't try to run
Don't hide away
There is no hope you can't escape
I see your smile fade away
Your bright blue sky has turned to gray
Tonight
Unlock the door
Close your eyes
I'll set you free
Here, in this spiralling darkness
Where my pleasure is your pain
Fear wraps it's arms around you
Here: is where I reign
It feels so good
This feels so right
That you should be my sacrifice
Don't try to run
Don't hide away
There is no hope you can't be saved
Here, in this spiralling darkness
Where my pleasure is your pain
Fear wraps it's arms around you

Remembering that day
I see my body below me
Sighs rend the air
Night will it find the day
Or will I slumber for Eternity
There's a knocking at the gates
The darkness is calling me
How will I know what awaits?
Pulled through these hollowed halls
The light in the distance
As my spirit falls
I must not leave this world
But I lost my resistance
Heaven held before me
I can see The fires are churning
Is this really how it has to be?
Parting Visions in my head
Calling out your name
It screams to be heard
Voices in my head
Parting Visions in my head
Calling out your name
It screams to be heard
Voices in my head

I saw your shadow disappear
Outside my door today
Now I'm left here lost and alone
I light a candle in your name
An eternal burning flame
Shining like the sun to find your way home
Cold tide tower my way
And now I know
Warm skies shower my face
Find your way home
I knew this day would come
But I feared it anyway
Now my castles cold and dark
What was once a dream now becomes our destiny
And I can't wait another day
What was once a dream now means everything
To me. To me.
No country can divide
No seas can separate
Our souls tonight
We are one
What was once a dream now becomes our destiny
And I can't wait another day
What was once a dream now means everything
To me. To me

In a time in a place
Long ago today
I can see it there in the distance
In the air on line
On the corner of the mind
Rhydin is rising against the sun
Rhydin is rising
Join us a new world is open
Rhydin is rising
Don't you know its a new kingdom
Its new kingdom
In the sea its a birth
On the corner of this earth
Somewhere in the dark horizon
These are the days
Endless wars
In the fields and on our shores
Where the minute last a day
Rhydin is rising
Join us a new world is open
Rhydin is rising
Don't you know its a new kingdom
Its all there, its all there in your mind

I had to climb the highest mountain
I was on my own
And I had to walk through fire and rain
In my search for you
I will search for you
I had to sail the seven seas
Into no mans land
And I found my place in history
Found out who I am
Who am I?
Irea
I close my eyes and call your name
Irea
I pretend you're mine again
I fall into you once again
Chasing memories
And I will live in Cardinal Sin
When you set me free
Wont you set me free?
Irea
I close my eyes and call your name
Irea
I pretend you're mine again
Irea
I need you here
Irea
Once you are gone I go insane

[Instrumental]

Can you remember the morning
I told you goodbye
A piece of me died

Somehow I have to try to
Getting used to being alone
If I could only hold you once again
I'd never let go

Save me a prayer
When day turns to night

Lord won't you
Show me the light
One day - I'll find back to my heart and soul again
One day - I swear swear by your name

Memories keep me awake
And you're there by my side
I wonder if its only in my mind
That I am alive

Save me a prayer
When day turns to night
Lord won't you
Tell me I'm right

One day - I'll find back to my heart and soul again
One day - I swear swear by your name
