Lost
08:23
|

I am lost in a world that's scaring me to death
Lost in a crowd that cannot hear me screaming in the dark
But when my mind winds up and I can't get through it
When everything seems to drift away out of control
There's no choice to make
No chance to escape
Long lost to life
Dying on my own
Behind this veil forever, lost in time
Beyond my mind my dreams are caged
I know I'll never find
Lost in the skies of October like fallen leaves
Lost in my thoughts, lost in the dark
Waiting for a new dawn
Can you hear my calling?
The calling of the ones
Praying for something new to show up
Something from above or from down below
To open your eyes, fly away
Long lost memories
They're just a dream
A fantasy, in agony
Lost family and lost poetry
Gone now, yet I'm full of hate
And I am falling away
From the dream that I once had
My spirit has stopped to dream
Nothing to hang on
Nothing to wipe my tears
Your eyes
My fall
It's like a nightmare every new day cycle
The void, to fill
And in the grip of fire, to reborn
Lost, lost
I am the one to reborn
Lost
It's like a nightmare every new day cycle
Am I to blame for that insane decay?

Endless Circle
06:25
|

When I see all those people
Face down, lying to the floor
Paralyzed by the fear of a dreadful invader
When I see that the fire and the flames are burning everything
I can't help but to wonder, what is this decay?
Don't play the hero
There is no past, there is no future
This open wound will kill us all
The blood on our hands will dry before the sunset
And recall us the price to pay
For freedom, in a place that is no home to us
Come and see the blood on the streets
The children playing through the dead
A circle with no end, with no God
Because underneath different skies
We are all born the same
The only difference that I see
Is the rulers from above
Don't play the hero
There is no past, there is no future
This open wound will kill us all
The blood on our hands will dry before the sunset
And recall us the price to pay
For freedom, in a place that is no home to us
Step aside and see
The price of fake democracy
The path that they know to follow
We can't behead the king for them
They know the way

Shining A While
08:04
|

As a child, he used to let the light shine for a while
Before the sandman came to sprinkle his eyes
By the window, he felt the wind carry his fears away
Far beyond from what he had ever prayed
The sorrow's gone, his demons could wait
Cause the heaven he found, belonged to his own faith
No matter how far from the dreams that he had
He knew that everyday could be one to be glad
And by the moonlight, he thought about his life
What it would be ten years from where he was
Carry on wise man, don't worry you will find
And he believed himself after all
We're not alone for the the ride
As a man, he shuts the light down as fast as he can
Even the starlight cannot sooth his great pain
By the window, nothing but the phantoms of his past
Haunting the design that he's trying to reach
Why is it gone? Innocence and faith
In a life that goes on, every day without any aim
Will we ever have the strength, to find back what it takes?
To let the sandman come again
And feel the wind embracing our skins
Every day taking time to relieve from our sins
Listening carefully to the signs that
Show us where to go
Unconsciously, time feeds from our dreams
Until all that remains in an empty gleam
And consciously, we let our childhood disappear
The child inside us grows
We stand in line and and are the next one to follow
Can your just remember, the last time you laughed
Until you lose your breath, instead of faking smile
Can't you just try to sleep, without falling so deep?
And be glad to wake up, when the morning has come
Open your eyes on a world, where everything is possible
And let your light shine for a while
And let your light shine for a while

Prison Planet
05:27
|
|||
The world is delusion, an illusion
The scourge is down on us and eats us like a parasite
The worms have made their home into our brains
Sowing fear, hunger, misery, destructive agony
We have to run and hide or we will fall
The scourge is down on us and eats us like a parasite
The world is illusion and delusion
Don't you look back, only pain you will see
Just show us the way to go
So we have something to believe
Something that we can reach
Something that we can dream
That we've been longing for so long
We need to find a place home
On this prison planet
No turning back, the motion is constant
The relics of the past will remind us of our dissent
The fall of one, the ascent of the next
The end of an era
The aftermath of our demise
Can you hear the loud ticking of the clock?
It's the great mystery
The great mystery of our time
What will we do? When will we change it all?
Don't you look back, only pain you will see
Just show us the way to go
So we have something to believe
Something that we can reach
Something that we can dream
That we've been longing for so long
We need to find a place home
On this prison planet
Words are idle without a cause
Meaningless without actions
We've signed with blood the epitaph
On our enemies' graves
They will not choose who I am
Even if I stand on the edge
And would you dare to take my hand
No matter what's there at the end
The means we need to make it right
Are not so far away from us
The will to fight
The strength to stand
To unite under the same banner
Just show us the way so we become
The mankind that we wish to be
And take our hand to bring us to
The deepest of horizon
We need to find a place home
On this prison planet

Imminent Extinction
06:28
|
|||
From love to hate, from life to death
Is existence itself a pledge of sorrow?
A straight path to hell, drawn by a bloody flood
In the corpse of time, only my voice will shine
Surrounded by the ghosts and thousand years of cries
Mankind has finally consumed all of its faith
Into what they call wealth
Taking it all within me
Until only the void remains
They are lying beside me, dead bodies of a useless life
Am I the only one to feel that emptiness?
The only walking dead to realize our blindness?
The almighty has already given up on us
And he shall let us die into the chasm we dug
False love and real hate, black gold and golden faith
Look around, see for yourself, it's not enough to prove that it's the end?
Imminent extinction
See the shadows we've created, we will all fade into their haze
We are the pawns on the chessboard, the devil was right when he has bet on us
Imminent extinction
Now that our lives belong to death, all you can try will be in vain
Imminent extinction
Cause every time you join your hands together
Remember that sometimes the greatest gifts
Are unanswered prayers
Don't wish for something that can't be granted
Look around, see for yourself, it's not enough to prove that it's the end?
Imminent extinction
See the shadows we've created, we will all fade into their haze
We are the pawns on the chessboard, the devil was right when he has bet on us
Imminent extinction
Not that our lives belong to death, all you can try will be in vain
Imminent extinction

Final Abode
08:32
|
|||
I want to know what is awaiting for me
I want to have a dream to believe in
Those who don't know the past will repeat it
That's not the path I want to follow
We are being replaced one at a time
Artificial intelligence rages on
No more allegiance is good to hold
It is every man for himself
Critical times have arrived
So, here we lie, here we cry
Within the ruins of our lives
We are slipping away
Welcome, stranger
To this new world
It's the terminus
Last destination
The last haven
Seek no heaven
No community
Final abode
Open your eyes
Cleanse the nightmares out
The loner that you are has no place to go
The land is scorched and the river runs dry
The shelter that you seek has been swallowed up
These are the remnants of our kind
Critical times have arrived
So, here we lie, here we cry
Within the ruins of our lives
We are slipping away
Do you feel it growing on you!
The light is fading away
The night is dragging us down
If we ever fall under this dark spell
If we ever let this grand scheme take control
Over our will to fight
Behold this new reality
We choose to live
We choose to die
The choice is ours to make
The road ahead is empty and will be waiting for us

Awakening
06:20
|
|||
A sunrise, a flower in bloom, its beauty is love
That's cut at the stem, and given to save
A hidden, bittersweet hope
That dwells deep within us all
Waiting to be awakened
A cloudless night
A starless sky
The darkness, a relief
For the one who hide its tears
The cry of the lonely
The cry of the lovely
The loss of me
The rose of May
Will reborn and thrive
As the memory goes on
Softly, the night goes away to a new day
A sunrise, a flower in bloom, its beauty is love
Waiting to be picked, to be awakened
The cold morning dew
Embracing the innocent's skin
Withering and dying
But waiting to be reborn
To hear the melodies of life
To smell the sweet perfume of hope
And to come back to life
A sunrise, a flower in bloom, its beauty is love

Idle Words
07:52
|
|||
Maybe it’s not a place for me in the end.
The cliff is ahead, keep on marching,
Until we jump into the void,
Until the black of our hearts prevails.
Until what remains disappears.
The words they are too hard to say.
The fear that muzzles us to silence.
Dare to speak your mind
Can you hear the gunshots from afar?
Never mind if it is not for you
It is the freedom of speech,
That is dragged into the mud once again
Run away if you still can.
What is there left in here to believe anyway?
Whenever you are lost
With this strange feeling
That your words are idle
Believe in something
That’s worth to defend
Whenever you feel empty
Remember where we belong
And I live my life
To find my own way
And to fulfil my duty
As true as a man can be
Brave and valiant
It’s a hard choice
But I will not be silent
The blood and the hate won’t be forgotten
It is a fight that goes far beyond good and evil
Cause every time you run away
Every time there’s something that you cannot stand
Will you step over and watch the show?
Can’t wish upon the stars to make the final miracle
They’ll make the barricades fall
The blood and the hate it won’t be forgotten
It is a fight that goes far beyond good and evil
The blood may be dry
But the wound is still open
What is there left in here
In here to believe anyway?
Whenever you are lost
With this strange feeling
That your words are idle
Believe in something
That’s worth to defend
Whenever you feel empty
Remember where we belong
Whenever you feel empty
Remember where you belong
Why is there always something to fear?
Why is the powerful starving the weak?
Am I weak?
I am

The Ghost Of Myself
07:23
|
|||
The path is dark, the light is out
The curtain is down on my life
This is my final bow
This is the final act
The play is over and everyone in the crowd is gone
As quiet as I am
I could almost be the ghost of myself
To leave behind the ones who love me
Is something that I cannot stand
I wish to live
To live and see
The things that are yet to be seen
Rise up and let it shine
Because there is no tomorrow
With open heart and eyes ablaze
I gaze into the eyes of death
As quiet as I am
I could be the ghost of myself
Hidden somewhere within my mind
Into my dreamer's hideaway
Little hideaways for our lonely soul
With open heart and eyes ablaze
I gaze into the eyes of death
As quiet as I am
The beautiful that lies within
And the innocence of a child
Imagination that goes beyond mortal things
Those are the memories that you will keep of me
The love of a father
I give you the ghost of myself
A sacrifice for all
I give you the ghost of myself
With open heart and eyes ablaze
I gaze into the eyes of death
As quiet as I am
I could be the ghost of myself
Hidden somewhere within my mind
Into my dreamer's hideaway
Little hideaways for our lonely soul
With open heart and eyes ablaze
I gaze into the eyes of death
As quiet as I am
As quiet as they are
For you I have
And for you I will
From life to death
My spirit will remain
I have written the story of my life
With the things I've done
Just remember my song...
Turn the page, burn the book and let it die
Memories they will finally collapse
Live your life
As your own
No rules to restrain the melodies of life
