The Other Side
There's a light and a darkened road
There's a night and a fading hope
There was a dream that once was mine
But now it seems it has passed with time
Sail away my little sister
Sail away to the other side
Sail away my little sister
Sail away far into the night
Where times seems much better
Than this void called life
There's a voice inside my head
There was a hope, now now long since dead
It's all a wonder, will I abide
[Stranger:] come inside
Read my epitaph, deranged am I?
[Estranged one:] haunting me
Be my lover, I prithee
Prophecies of death outside
take the moonshine for a ride
Haunting faces and staring eyes
bring my mania into life
Little stranger come inside
Lay to rest what you still writhe
We made a life of it somehow
Seems like we've lost it now
See you dance away
all this bitter pain
See you move in ways
beyond our days
In devotion I linger
And with drained veins
I falter again
See you pass away
in another day
Hear you call my name
yon another veil
In devotion I've lingered
In this world I've belonged
for far too long
[Strangers:] haunt me down
Stalking faces all around
This strange voice at my door
cede my reason like before
Propechies of death inside
Cede your words they cut like knives
Somber wind that sweeps within
This manic aeon is bound to be
Little stranger stand me by
If you prevail, then so can I
Lay to rest the hurt you stand
The Last Call
I stroll through days and nights
And through hours of weeping
Can i mend by broken heart by
Speaking to myself
I`ve been lost and found
And broken down bye the treason in your eyes
Iґve been turned around
Burned upside down by the fraud in all your lies
Feel the lights are fading within me
There's a void and a growing anxiety
I can feel the bitter end draws near
I concede this life has nothing more for me
I fall through rays of light
In the hours of redeeming
Last call and far too late now
As far as i can tell
I`ve been burned in life, burned too many times
Wheel of fire's still burning
I have done my time, walked too many lines
In my darkest dreams, I follow you into the night
In my darkest dreams, I walk with you beyond the light
This darkness on my mind
Always tries to bring me further down
This darkness deep inside
Makes me lose myself time after time
In my darkest hours, I see the world be built devours
In my darkest hours, I see a crumbling tower
This darkness on my mind
Always tries to bring me further down
This darkness deep inside
Makes me lose myself time after time
Makes me lose myself time after time
Makes me lose myself time after time
[Growls:]
Feel the pain, it's growing strong
Our hearts been bleeding for so long
There's a light, there's a dream, there's a fire within
Fading on into night eternally
Our crumbling walls, I can see them fall
Our bleeding hearts, forever lost in the dark
This darkness on my mind
Always tries to bring me further down
This darkness deep inside
Makes me lose myself time after time
This darkness on my mind
Always tries to bring me further down
This darkness deep inside
Meridian (Acoustic)
Daylight adorn her withering lifeforce
with a long lost river
that mend all her woe in its flow
May I redeem my funereal self
in thy mirror of soul sanctorum
to frame every night a delight
Thou stalk the ground, the sea and the winds around
to haunt me down profound when the night surrounds
Thou stalk the Stygian stream and the riverine
to haunt my hallowed fields and astrayal dreams
I'm at sixes and sevens
in the shade of thy heavens
No moon, nor sun
Meridian
prevail in my oblivion
Come with me to seek the sun inside
Meridian
This time around we dance
We're chosen ones
Thou stalk as the unseen in visions undreamed
to revel in the deep of life's malignity
Thou stalk my manic mind yon it's horizon
to draw that waning sun upon Meridian
Thou art eternal darkness
Thou art eternal heresy
Thou art day and night
Thou art the flame inside
The Path To Decay (Radio Mix)
[Bonus track]
Life brings nothing for the same
Keep searchin' new days on the horizon
While time just seems to slip away
I'm leaving no trace along the way
Seems like I'm falling deeper
Deeper inside myself
Feels like I'm growing weaker
Much weaker each day
Along the path to decay
The lights are fading day by day
No cure for the lost, there's no ascending
When life could not become more pale
A new dawn is here, another day
Seems like I'm falling deeper
Deeper inside myself
Feels like I'm growing weaker
Much weaker each day
Along the path to decay
[Guitar solo]
Seems like I'm falling deeper
Deeper inside myself
Feels like I'm growing weaker
Much weaker each day
Along the path to decay
In sumerian haze you search for another day
Guess another vail left you this way
Thoughts on a line where I leave it all behind
Nothing can mend the hurt inside
Sweetened horizons
dance away the pain tonight
Just like you and I
Profoundly deranged you go through another day
I guess it was meant to be this way
Thoughts on a line won't recover your mind
You cut your veins, like I've cut mine
Sweetened horizons
dance away the pain tonight
I drift on a lonely lake
A lake of the darkness you forsake
I'm falling apart here in this life
I can not find the things that I've been searching for
All this time
Hear the sound of my heart breaking down in tears
As I cave in to all my fears,
It's a cruel world out there
I'm led astray in this wasteland and in the end
I know that I'm bound to descend
I'm lost on this lonely lake
I can't seem to find my way
I'm giving up on this life
'Cause I can't find the things that I've been searching for
All this time
Hear the sound of my heart breaking down in tears
As I cave in to all my fears,
It's a cruel world out there
I'm led astray in this wasteland and in the end
I know that I'm bound to descend
[Solo]
Hear the sound of my heart breaking down in tears
As I cave in to all my fears,
It's a cruel world out there
I'm led astray in this wasteland and in the end
I see you wander
So lost and alone
You falter on the
Darkest of roads
Let us wait for a way now
You're too far from home
No longer careful wherever I roam
This is the path to the end of it all
It goes on and on and on
Goes on and on and on
This is the darkness at the end of the world
It lingers on and on and on
Lingers on and on and on
You're going under
Life's pulling you down
Life's making you choke
Life's making you drown
Get away from the pain now
Consuming your soul
I see you fall
I see you lose all control
This is the path to the end of it all
It goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
This is the darkness at the end of the world
It lingers on and on and on
Lingers on and on and on
This is the path to the end of it all
It goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
This is the darkness at the end of the world
It lingers on and on and on
Led Astray
I go through the pages of my own life, day by day
Like a dream on the horizon, they seem so lost
All led astray
I see them passing away
These feelings inside me
Keep bringing me further and further down
Been lost for so long, can't find my way home
I don't even know where I belong
I've faced all the ages all alone, by myself
Never ending is the treason in every night
And every day
One By One
There's a river that runs along
Your fading hope and darkened days to come
The lights are fading out once more
I see you falter so lost and blind
I know a shadow still lingers in in your mind
But i can`t lead you on, not this time
I`ve been dreaming for far too long
And my dreams all break one by one
I'm still standing, still facing the fall
Will i give in the distant calls
I`ve been watching your crumbling walls
I`ve endured a thousand tears or more
In a frozen moment of time, i see you fall
Only memories remain of you now
You' ve given in to darkness and to doubt
You couldn`t find the strength to cast
Star-Crossed
A wanderer in time
comes strolling through my mind
It seems she lost her way
It seems she led astray
The sun sets in her eyes
A lunar moon arise
Her life all seems in vain
A mystery...arcane
Summer's on the wane
My life it seems so frail
Descend again to the sombre fields of pain
Winter's on a rise
I've held it's cold inside through all my life
like a star-crossed winter child
A waning silvereye
A starless winter sky
No scent of morning dew
Her tears all frozen through
This wanderer comes my way
All aeons seems as days
A sea so deep and wild
A star-crossed winter child
Dusk creeping upon us
The dawn...ne'r to appear
The nightfall weeps along thus
it's the darkness that we fear
Fall for me lost angel
I'll fall for thee as well
To the world we're only strangers
How can you stand there
like a weakening fire
awaiting the final end?
If you consider
still hanging in there
You will wither
in each and in every way
How can you stand it?
Say can you mend it?
Don't you pretend that
the world is a better place?
If you're in denial
life is worth while
You can rely on
there's comfort in exit ways
In a manica the reaper comes around
And the winds they sweep my manic funereal ground
Some deranged and some devour
to haunt me down in my darkest hour
Yet another mind of the Devil's design
When we gather our frail souls beyond our persistence
When we cope for our lives with fantasy
When we cover our eyes and mourn our loss of existence
When we falter, deprived and out of dreams
Do you see there are times?
to read in the lines?
And trust me you will find
the things that you know
will hurt you so
You can't deny that anymore,
The twilight in your eyes
It lingers still
Like it has done all your life
Your heart is aching inside
It's bleeding still
Like it has done all your life
I want to see the sun rise in your eyes
Be gone all sorrows, the pain that you keep inside
I want to see the summer lighten your life
Be gone all winters, the cold you still hold inside
The sorrow and the strife
Still linger here
Like they have done all your life
The pain keeps holding you down
It hurts you still
Like it has done all your life
I want to see the sun rise in your eyes
Be gone all sorrows, the pain that you keep inside
I want to see the summer lighten your life
Be gone all winters, the cold you still hold inside
[Solo]
I want to see the sun rise in your eyes
Be gone all sorrows, the pain that you keep inside
I want to see the summer lighten your life
Be gone all winters, the cold you still hold inside
I want to see the sun rise in your eyes
Euphoria
I feel the magic rushing in
I feel the heavenworks ascend like a sun within
All my travail is on the wane
A lucid bliss sets in, and the world sails away
I'm cold seed
I'm your sweetest leaf
I'll ease your mind
I'll set you free
My queen come rise in me
Hallucination or a dream ascendancy?
I cry come bring me on a high
We'll watch the angels fly, then we'll ride the crimson sky
Hear you screaming out in hours of living hell
And the void inside you've carried it so well
Seems like living now gets harder every day
Seems like you don't care for life the same way
Winds of euphoria and lucid needs
A call, a desire deep inside of me
A hope yon all loss and broken dreams
An ephemeral walk in elysian fields
A new dawn is rising within me
I ride the ninth cloud in the seventh dream
A haven yon life and it's cruelty
Save Me From Myself
Save me now
before my world falls
Save me now
from myself
before the dawn
Save me now
I'm at the reaper's door
Can't you see
you hold the key
Tell me now you sinner
you run for a better world
Tell me why you'd leave her
despite all the hurt
Don't deny that you once tried to mend
the circumstances now out of hand
And don't deny your life's a living hell
you're a shadow of your own self
Tell me now you sinner
still lost in your secret world
Tell me now you've seen her
you know how she hurts
Don't deny that you will understand
the circumstances of pain at hand
And don't assert that we will both survive
'cause I can't take more of life
Stretch your arms out for the fire
for another dark desire
In the fields you burn with loss again
as you dream your life away
Say: would you never walk away
on the break of a coming day
Would you end this line with me
Would you like to waste away what we've ever been?
Would you like to come along with me?
Would you like to lay to rest our insanity?
Voices Within
Darkness drapes my weary eyes
drape the void that grows inside
And I can't take this veil away
I can't find the strength
I tried to shield my scenery
tried to set my mind free
This life has brought me to my knees
Devastation unleashed
Whispers...calling on the wind
Like voices calling from deep within
Shivers...all down your spine
I'm the void that rides your aching mind
Nightfall seems to come my way
and it seems as if to stay
A shadow haunts me from the past
Will it forever last?
A voice is calling in the wind
yon the horizons, and from within
I deem the thought, shall I abide
these ghastly wispers inside?
Whispers...called you on the wind
Like voices called you from deep within
Wither...wane adown the line
A Mental Symphony
Sleep in the fire, in thorns and decay
Dreams and desires they have all been a waste
I'm getting closer, so close to awake
So close to what life's been, yet still so far away
Dancing through days...
where the pain ascend in a thousand ways
Dancing through nights...
where the darkness strikes me from inside
Dancing through life...
where its strife enshrines all my desires
Dancing through death...
a dance with the devil and a flirt with the dead
Leaving the fire, abandon the flames
Lost in denial, all your life's been in vain
Life growing colder, it's closing in on you
I know you're going down, but there's no more I can do
Calm me down to the sound of my insanity
Voices screaming, astral dreaming
The Fall Within
One moment I froze in life
I tried to grasp the time
That moment seized to be
revealed my destiny
Once you were a shining star
I've watched you from the fields afar
The brightest of them all
descend to face its fall
How can I sleep?
when I don't know whether I live or dream
And how can I weep?
when I don't know if the pain I feel is real
I stand upon the fall
I'm giving in on all
I watch the sun's decline
for one last closing time
The sundown share my thoughts of you
The winter moon bewail you too
You still remain to me
a pending mystery
Voices are calling beyond the dawn
where life and dream seems as one
Moments and aeons pass before your eyes
while you stand frozen in life
Years all have passed now, since you gave in
on the world of living
Awaiting your strength there, upon the fall
Do you live a lie?
Are you lost in life?
On the wane tonight
like every night
Do you live a lie?
Would you like to try?
In this world of vainly missions
I'm a god of superstition
Would you grant me a savage prison?
within the walls of your decisions
If you hurt me I won't recover
Don't you turn me down
We are all living a lie
would you like to try?
In these halls of time
we are all giving
in for another day
We shall pass away
on the break of day
We're lost anyway
Do you live a lie?
Do you stand me by?
Would you cope for my existence?
Would you last or cease persistence?
I'm the moon and the seventh dreamer
you're the hewn and a lost redeemer
Heavenworks for a welkin at dusk
you're a frail outcast
"Recall the fragments of a broken life
just like a shattered soul divine
You are the treason-reflecting eyes
Sundown
From a distance
I can see you descend
Like golden grains of sand
A weeping sun is descending
And the moon now ascending here
In these cold winterlands
I' ve been strolling through the pouring rain
In search of better days
I`ve been strolling down the darkest of lanes
Just to find it`s all in vain
The sundown gives birth to another night
As the moon comes crawling across the sky
My soul feels cold and my heart is tired
I`m burning inside, can`t stop the flames, the fire
From a distance
I can see you pretend
That your life's on the mend
A thousand riverines weeping
And a silvermoon sweeping swift
Across forsaken lands
I' ve been crawling on my knees and hands
I' ve watched all suns descend
I' ve been dreaming some day, I'll ascend
I wish that summer never would let go
I wish that winter never got it's grip on my lost soul
My home is where the summer dies
A winter land beneath the darkened skies
The summer sun is on the wane again
Embrace my heart, embrace my soul
Your touch is heaven sent
I wish that summer never would let go
I wish that winter never got it's grip on my lost soul
I wish you'd be forever by my side
And lead me through the falling devastating eventide
My heart lies where the darkness falls
It's buried deep beneath the forest floor
The silver eye shines on as snow descends
My summer sun, you're long since gone
I'll wait for you until the bitter end
I wish that summer never would let go
I wish that winter never got it's grip on my lost soul
I wish you'd be forever by my side
And lead me through the falling devastating eventide
[Solo]
I wish that summer never would let go
I wish that winter never got it's grip on my lost soul
I wish you'd be forever by my side
En mis tenebrosos sue os
Te sigo en la oscuridad
En mis tenebrosos sue os
La luz al fin me cegar
La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas
En mis horas sombrias
Ya nuestro mundo se ha acabado
En mis horas sombrias
Veo una torre derrumbarse
La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas
Hace que me pierda una vez mas
Hace que me pierda una vez mas
Nuestros fragiles muros
Puedo verlos caer
Nuestras almas sangraran
Por siempre en la oscuridad
La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas
La oscura realidad
Quiere destruirme sin piedad
La inmensa oscuridad
Hace que me pierda una vez mas
[English translation:]
In my dark dreams
I follow you in the dark
In my dark dreams
The light in the end will blind me
The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more
In my shadow hours
Our world has already ended
In my shadow hours
I see a tower collapsing
The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more
Makes me get lost once more
Makes me get lost once more
Our fragile walls
I can now see them fall
Our souls will bleed
Forever in the dark
The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
Makes me get lost once more
The dark reality
Wants to destroy me with no mercy
The imense darkness
The Seventh Summer
The vapour in my mind makes it hard to find
The things in life that I lost back in time
And the trail of my heart has turned all roads so dark
So hard to find, so hard to overcome
And all the things that I believed were true
Were never roots to anything but lies
To demons in disguise
And all the roads that I've been strolling down
Now I've found they all seem to be marooned
So profoundly doomed
And the vapour in my heart makes it hard to love
The things in life that I used to love
And the trail of my soul, has made me feel so cold
So lost in life, so down and so alone
Aeons are passing in the blink of an eye
Moments frozen, all the years I've tried to deny
Memories haunt me as the years pass me by
Feel the dusk, feel the fall, feel the winter inside
On the seventh summer of my life
Saw you turn your back on it all, and left me far behind
There's a river between us, it's become so wide
I wish that you could be right here
The Path To Decay
Life brings nothing for the same
Keep searching new days on the horizon
While time just seems to slip away
I'm leaving no trace along the way
Seems like I'm falling deeper, deeper inside myself
Feels like I'm growing weaker, much weaker each day
Along the path to decay
The lights are fading day by day
No cure for the lost, there's no ascending
When life could not become more pale
A new dawn is here, another day
Seems like I'm falling deeper, deeper inside myself
Feels like I'm growing weaker, much weaker each day
Along the path to decay
Darkness within myself....
Seems like I'm falling deeper, deeper inside myself
Feels like I'm growing weaker, much weaker each day
The Lucid Door
In my dreams
A lucid door is fading as the walls close in
On all my dreams
I walk with you through fire
Through endless nights and everlasting desire
Wane...all the lights they seem to fade
All so dim and all so frail
They all seem to pass away
I can see them getting weaker every day
Silent screams
And stalking strangers
Haunt me in my darkest sleep
I feel them stare at me
A thousand eyes on fire
Penetrate my mind when I'm all wired
All so high and wired
Enigmatic is the wheel of time
Loosing grip as the years pass me by
Drifting further away from the light
Into the arms of an endless night
I still cling on to the will to be
Though overthrown by life's insanity
Collapsing in anxiety
The Mind Maelstrom
I can feel a sorrow linger in my mind
And the dark that follows
Makes me falter in my life
There's a darkness, there's a light
A narrow path and a wide
There is no tomorrow for the lost and blind
There's no glee, nor sorrow
In the maelstrom of their minds
There's an hour, there's a time
Is this the end of the line?
There's a fire fading deep within
Lost its spark, its will to be
There are seven doors within my dreams
Still speaks the silence
It speaks in riddles to my mind
And time keeps passing by
As I walk tearful through this life
Dreams pass by silently,
I see them waving back at me
All hope is long since gone,
I guess it really never was there at all
A mirage passed on
I know the darkness will break me
And you can not save me, can't catch my fall
I feel the sorrow embrace me, this life depraves me
I'm lost forevermore
[1st solo]
My life darkens year by year, and no one seems to really care
My fear always lingers here, it's growing stronger deep inside of me
It won't set me free
I know the darkness will break me
And you can not save me, can't catch my fall
I feel the sorrow embrace me, this life depraves me
I'm lost forevermore
[2nd solo]
Tears she'd in silence, they run in rivers down my face
My Mind's Eye
If you were here
I'd whisper sweet nothings in your ear
And appeal to all your fears
If you were mine, if you were only mine
I'd bring you so much further down
And twist your mind until the end of time
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside my mind
If you are down
I will come to chain you to the ground
And penetrate your mind
If you are lost, if only you are lost
I'll be there to break you trust
And ravage all your lust for life, my love
[x3]
You will never realize
I've always felt so cold inside
Clinging on to life
I've always felt at one with the night
Fading deep inside
Winter winds are blowing through my life
Deep inside I know that I can run but I can't hide
Fallen angel at my side
Take me by the hand
And lead me far into the night
Far away from this life
I've always felt so drawn to the sea
So deep and wild and free
I've always lived my life through my dreams
To deny life's misery
Winter winds are blowing through my life
Deep inside I know that I can run but I can't hide
Fallen angel at my side
Take me by the hand
And lead me far into the night
Far away from this life
[Solo]
Fallen angel at my side
Take me by the hand
And lead me far into the night
Far away from this life
Fallen angel at my side
Take me by the hand
And lead me far into the night
You know all my dreams they fade with time
They're slowly dying in the darkest corners of your aching mind
A radiant star has lost it's shine
Now consumed by all the darkness and the pain within this life
The fading embers burning out, while you linger here
Forevermore in darkness and in doubt
[Growls:]
(Fade... ) All my dreams they fade
(Fade...) See them pass away
(Fade...) See them all decay
All of my dreams fade away...
Into the night
(Fade...) Out of my sight
(Fade...) Like candle lights
All of my dreams fade away...
All of my dreams have come to an end
Voices speaking to my mind
From afar
From distant times
They speak to me about my life
Of years to come
With loss and strife
Life's coming down to the sound of your heart breaking
For all these years they tried to bring you to the ground
They made you fall eventually, this time around
For all these years you spoke to me
To my mind
To my sanity
Revealed to me all my deepest fears
And brought me down
Soaked in tears
Life's coming down to the sound of your heart breaking
For all these years they tried to bring you to the ground
They made you fall eventually, this time around
[Growls]
I scream in desperation
I'm the lost and the fallen one
I lost my destination
So long ago
Heading on towards devastation
I'm the lost and the fallen one
This will be my resignation
Once and for all
[Solo]
Life's coming down to the sound of your heart breaking
For all these years they tried to bring you to the ground
All these dreams I left behind
All these tears I cried through mournful nights
They're still haunting me as years pass by
All the dreams I ever wanted to come through for me
I saw them all cease to be
All my dreams decline, they fade away and die
I see them all passing by, break before my eyes
And still I wonder why no dreams come through for me in this life
All the love you offered me waS not enough to ever set me free
I still recall all we hope to be
All my words still left unspoken
A troubled mind and a heart so broken
All my dreams decline, they fade away and die
I see them all passing by, break before my eyes
And still I wonder why no dreams come through for me in this life
[Solo]
All my dreams decline, they fade away and die
I see them all passing by, break before my eyes
[Child:] every time you come around
you divert my feelings, and bring me further down
Would you like to be the serpentine whirls of the stream?
Would you like to cope for all your dreams?
Sister Nightfall controlling the lights in me
Though it hurts it feels just like a dream
Come down to linger in heresy
and come down on me with all your serenity
Shivers down the spine
when she comes down the hall
Thy effigy seems frail to be
or was it ever there at all?
[Child:] every tear that runs adown
will merge and hurt now that winter's all around
Would you like to wear the secrets of the seven seas?
Would you like to be what you can't be?
Sister Nightfall controlling the lights in me
Though it hurts it feels just like a dream
Come down to linger in the undreamed
and come down on me to cope for what should have been
Give in on tonight
All heavens on their fall
We failed to find that soul divine
enshrined within us all
She sets her sails for another sea
There's more to life than your eyes reveal
Upon its scenery...
Sister Nightfall controlling the lights in me
Though it hurts it feels just like a dream
Sister I call out in vain for thee
Sirens Of The Seven Seas
Lead me down to the sea
To where the sirens call and where the waves are raging free
Sing for me, all of your sweetest melodies
And then let me drown into your arms, into the sea
Hear the sirens of the sea
They're calling for our hearts and they will have them eventually
Sing for me, all sirens of the seven seas
Take me away, lead me astray in your deceitful ways
Hear a thousand voices calling me
Down by the deceitful sea
They sing for me
The sirens of the seven seas
Their eyes are all fixed on me
I heard you call my name
On a stormy day
From beneath the waves
I watched you slip away
Sirenian Shores
Down by the sounding sea
Drawn to the lure of a siren's melody
to the tempting sweeping of the waves
to the calling of a mellow grave
Yon all wonder and yon all dreams
Can't strive against giving in
And she siren angelique
invoke my endless sleep
Come with me into the deep
I'll lead you on through the seas of infinte sleep
I stand upon the sweeping shore
A frozen heart won't thrive no more
A velvet voice is calling me
yon this scornful deep blue sea
Take my hand, I'll follow thee
into the sombre placid deep
Beyond the waves and far beneath
where I can rest, forever free
I'm going under
In writhes I'm going down
in a lunar sea on the siren's night
Beneath the surface
I choke...tenderly drown
and a thousand scornful sirens come around
Fear the sounding sea
Seven Keys And Nine Doors
Keep on falling, I keep falling down
So far, far, deeper and further
Keep on calling, I keep calling you now
But I can`t hear no answers
I' ve been feeling so lost
I`m giving in on in all
Voices calling in the back of my mind
They're calling all the time
I face a door, but there's no key to be found
When my life comes crashing down
As my last day unfolds
And hands turn numb and cold
Sail on my love
Sail on to the other side
Sail on further into the night
Wane. staring through my window pane
World gone insane
A fading flame
In the falling September rain
I strive in vain to find a way
In My Darkest Hours
In my darkest of hours
I yearn for the light my life devours
Winter's at hand
In search of a key, a door, an end
Hear my voice, don't quail inside the void
nor fear the sound of winter winds around
In my darkest of nights
I yearn for the dawn to bring me alive
How to ascend?
while you hold the key that shield my end
Hear my voice, it's calling on the dawn
Ascend to fall, but never to withdraw
Winter nights...I hold them inside
I stand to fall, giving in on life as a whole
Winds of time...won't mend my sombre mind
I can't deny that I'm on a closing way down
Morning star...shining from afar
your radiance diminish every day now
Evening star...you've lost your stalwart
Your skies endark
like my mind, my soul and my heart
Come take my hand
and lead me on towards the end
The darkness in me
devours the strength I craved for all these years
These feelings I have never shown remain unknown
I really don't know if I'm that strong...
These secrets I have held inside through all my life
Glades Of Summer
In the fields of summer
I will dance away with you
I never knew the pain would see us through
And though we fear the silence
We never ever realized
That life was only passing gently by
When the darkness seems to fall
Then I can hear you call
Your voice is clearer now than before
And in the summer rain
Iґll carry all your pain
If I could only see you again
In the glades of summer
A light still wanes in you
Like winter days long gone
In midst of June
And though the cross feels lighter
On a warm midsummer night
Why do we then still feel so cold inside
When the darkness seems to fall
Then I can hear you call
Your voice is weaker now than before
And in the summer rain
You gave in to your pain
First We Take Manhattan
[Originally performed by Leonard Cohen]
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
For trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
I don't like your fashion business mister
And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
I don't like what happened to my sister
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
I'd really like to live beside you, baby
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
But you see that line there moving through the station?
I told you, I told you, told you, I was one of those
And I thank you for those items that you sent me
The monkey and the plywood violin
I practiced every night, now I'm ready
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
Then we take Berlin!
Downfall
I can see you walk out away
Turn your back on all your feelings
Seems you're loosing yourself again
To a void so devastating
And I can't deny I am the one,
The one to blame
For all your loss and your fading flame
Life it feels like a frozen winter dream
Like a silent scream
Life it feels like a thousand frozen tears
And the night dwells within me
I can see you break down again
All your life you've been bound to treason
On your knees and your tears descend
Oh your life's a fallen season
And time can not heal these wounds my friend,
Not again
So here you'll stand to face the end
Beyond the silence
Where your voices whisper to my heart
In the midst of December
On a night that comes without a star
I fall into darkness
Like I've done a thousand times before
I've burned all bridges
She speaks to me in words that I can't understand
She moves in certain ways that I can't comprehend
She talks to me of love and life and faith and hope
She talks to me of death and darkened days to come
Come with me on through the veil of sleep
There are so many things I'd like to show you in my dreams
There is a path that leads us on and on through the beyond
I'll take you by the hand and I will never let you go
She pulls the strings attached so deeply to my heart
She takes me by the hand and lead me to the dark
She dance in lucid dreams, she's dancing in a trance
She pulls me deeper in, I never stood a chance
Come with me on through the veil of sleep
There are so many things I'd like to show you in my dreams
There is a path that leads us on and on through the beyond
I'll take you by the hand and I will never let you go
I know you're too far gone
What have we both become my dearest one
I'll walk you down the path
That leads to the dark in the deep of my heart
Come with me on through the veil of sleep
There are so many things I'd like to show you in my dreams
There is a path that leads us on and on through the beyond
Beyond Life's Scenery
There's a voice that speaks of time
There's a growing void inside
There are doors in life that I can't seem to find
There's a fire in my dreams
Fading day by day it seems
There's a narrow path beneath the fallen leaves
The years we tried to deny
Still haunt us now
There's a garden deep within
Where all life is withering
There's a fall and there's a wall and there's a sin
There are nails through my heart
All hope is torn apart
There are footsteps leading to my epitaph
I see you stand forsaken
On a desolate and distant shore
You have been lost for so long
No one can ever take you back to how it was
Down, feeling down, falling down, sinking further down
Misery circles around
Wane, feel the pain, gone insane and this life's to blame
Seems like it's all in vain
Dark, the past was dark, the present's dark, the future seems so dark
Alike our hearts
Deep is the sleep that life keeps beyond it's scenery
What life sows, we'll never reap
The years we tried to deny
Still haunt us now
The pain still burns deep inside
In times of strife
you seem to lose it all, and more somehow
No waning life can retrieve it
Can't make the world a better place to thrive
nor can I keep on persisting
You're on the wane in funereal winds
with a thousand winters within
You're life unveil its weary eyes
Sun sets in somber skies
Your waning desires brought to fire
where your withering life has been mourned
For a thousand years, where the pain blend with ire
and the night enflames us both
"Walk down the narrow path
Years of decay
Feel life's soul-inflicting hurt once again"
You're dying now
You make it feel somewhat divine
Your lenient eyes are somewhat healing
You make it feel the less a strife now
A precious life cease persisting
You're on the wane and eden's hewn
falter still under a funereal moon
Your tears they sweep upon life's shore
until the day you weep no more
Sunset's on the wane
In life we suffer the same
When sundown comes around
stalking strangers on hollowed ground
Endarkened souls entwined
together at the end of life
Embrace the new divine
or suffer another lifetime
I can feel the flames
the fire lick me in vain
My life can't be regained
not now, nor then, nor ever again
We cross our feeble hearts
the day our souls depart
Life move in strangest ways
Absent Without Leave
I can feel the eyes of your despair
Even where you're not here
I can feel your pain within myself
It's still keeping me down here
Life keeps on growing colder year by year
With a winter heart and my frozen tears
I stand lone to face my darkest fears
I' ve been wasting away, i' ve been fading inside
I' ve been drifting away from the lights in my life
I' ve been living in vain, living insane
I' ve been tripping down all the darkest of lanes
There's a shadow that dwells inside your head
Within mine as well
Turns our lives into a living hell
Like a curse and a spell
I' ve been drifting away from days of light
I' ve been swept away far into the night
I guess I'll never ever make it back
On a morning, a summer dawn
You speak in riddles and rhymes
From a distance your life it seems
I wander lost and lonely by the shoreline of the sea
I think about the way I wanted life to be
The seaside leads me on to the sound of sweeping waves
My heart gets filled with sorrow and grief along the way
There is no hope still left in my eyes
There is no light still left in my life
It has all faded into the night
So many darkened memories still haunt me from the past
I think about all the loved ones I have lost
I know the spring will come with soothing rain some day
But only to be followed by the winters devastating pain
There is no hope still left in my eyes
There is no light still left in my life
It has all faded into the night
[Growls:]
I see you wander lost and lonely by the shoreline of the sea
There's no light, there's no dreams, only the night
And the streams of tears down your cheeks
There's a wind from the past and at last it brought you to your knees
There's no hope, there's no glee, there's no life
Left for thee who wanders by the sea
There is no hope still left in my eyes
There is no light still left in my life
It has all faded into the night
There is no hope still left in my eyes
There is no light still left in my life
Daylight adorn her withering lifeforce
with a long lost river
that mend all her woe in its flow
May I redeem my funereal self
in thy mirror of soul sanctorum
to frame every night a delight
Thou stalk the ground, the sea and the winds around
to haunt me down profound when the night surrounds
Thou stalk the Stygian stream and the riverine
to haunt my hallowed fields and astrayal dreams
I'm at sixes and sevens
in the shade of thy heavens
No moon, nor sun
Meridian
prevail in my oblivion
Come with me to seek the sun inside
Meridian
This time around we dance
We're chosen ones
Thou stalk as the unseen in visions undreamed
to revel in the deep of life's malignity
Thou stalk my manic mind yon it's horizon
to draw that waning sun upon Meridian
Thou art eternal darkness
Thou art eternal heresy
Thou art day and night
Thou art the flame inside
Winterborn 77
There is a feeling deep inside
As dreary as a winternight
It darkens all my pride
And drives away the light
There is a feeling in my soul
It feels marooned and far too cold
I stand alone to face the wheel of time unfold
Darkness falls inside of me
And the sorrow's growing day by day
And though my life's a broken memory
There's a door and there's a key
Sorrow comes with silent tears
And the dawn still haunts my darkest fears
What have we both become throughout these years
There's a serpent in all tears
There is a river in my dreams
That runs so wide, that runs so deep
And by its riverine
I still can hear you weep
There is a winter in my heart
So freezing cold and utter dark
Lost In Life
A fading hope and a broken dream
Is all there is for me
It's all there was and will ever be
And I keep falling further down
We are lost in this life, you and I
We've been living a lie
Time keeps passing us by, but we can't deny
We've been lost all the time
There's no way to cope for these wasted years
Nor for these long lost tears
I'm giving in to all my fears
As I keep falling further down
We are lost in this life, you and I
We've been living a lie
Time keeps passing us by, but we can't deny
We've been lost all the time
Wait a moment
We are lost in this life, you and I
We've been living a lie
Time keeps passing us by, but we can't deny
We've been lost all the time
We are lost in this life, you and I
We've been living a lie (we've been living a lie)
Time keeps passing us by, but we can't deny
We've been lost all the time (we've been lost all the
