Sings a sad song for lonely women
Sings about women to lonely men
Sings a peace song to a soldier
Sings about loneliness to a friend
Shes a song, song singer
Let her music touch your heart
Shes a song singer from her heart
Sings a melody to haunt you
And some words to make you cry
If youre sad shell make you happy
When youre down shell take you high
Shes a song, song singer
Let her music touch your heart
Shes a song singer from her heart
Shes a song, song singer
Let her music touch your heart
Shes a song singer from her heart
Shes a song, song singer
Let her music touch your heart

Like some night bird homeward wingin'
He seeks the sheltered nest
Like the sailor's lost horizon
He needs some place to rest
The songs that he's been singin'
No longer make much sense
And those stranger's cold perceptions
They've killed his confidence
Nightingale, she sails away upon a sea of song
Nightingale, she serenades his lonely, lonely life along
When his tired voice is broken, his golden hope is gone
She makes a lost soul's simple longing, somehow not so wrong
Nightingale, nightingale
He was strong, but he was taken
By the thought of his success
Those spotlights shadows how they lured him
And took him like all the rest
But that old dream don't look good now
No it don't seem quite the same
He needs to hear a tender word
Won't you sing him home again?
Nightingale, she sails away up on a sea of song
Nightingale, she serenades his lonely, lonely life along
When his strength is slowly going his pride is all but gone
She makes a foolish dreamer listen to one last song
Nightingale ooh sing sweet nightingale
Oh, na, na, na, na, na
Nightingale, oh nightingale, oh nightingale

I built my house beside the wood
So I could hear you singing
And it was sweet and it was good
And love was all beginning
Fare thee well my nightingale
'Twas long ago I found you
Now all your songs of beauty fail
The forest closes 'round you
The sun goes down behind a veil
'Tis now that you would call me
So rest in peace my nightingale
Beneath your branch of holly
Fare thee well my nightingale
I lived but to be near you
Tho' you are singing somewhere still

Nightingale so beautiful I love to hear you sing
You possess such perfect pitch it really is astounding
Nightingale so beautiful I love to here your song
The melody of which sets my heart a pounding
Once upon a summer night when I was on my own
I ventured out and found you singing to no one
(Singing to no one).
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
And though the poet praised you in a more artistic way
I'd like to reaffirm it lest you fly away
Please don't fly away.
Nightingale so beautiful I love to hear you sing
You possess such perfect pitch it really is astounding
Nightingale so beautiful I love to here your song
The melody of which sets my heart a pounding
You have been admired for a very long time
And I know your song will live much longer than mine
(Longer than mine).
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (Nightingale)

Nightingale, sing us a song
Of a love that once belonged
Nightingale, tell me your tale
Was your journey far too long?
Does it seem like I'm looking for an answer
To a question I can't ask?
I don't know which way the feather falls
If I should blow it to the left
Nightingale, sing us a song
Of a love that once belonged
Nightingale, tell me your tale
Was your journey far too long?
All the voices that are spinnin' around me
Trying to tell me what to say
Can I fly right behind you?
And you can take me away
All the voices that are spinnin' around me
Trying to tell me what to say
So can I fly right behind you?

And I will flail under these lights that seep down from the bitter sky tonight
and I will kick and beat my wrists together
and feel an ocean breathing waves, feel them licking at my face.
Ceilings don't exist and there are no floors beneath me.
If I were king of this night, would you become my queen?
And I hope, your majesty that you like your position.
I'll do everything I can to keep you by my side
and I'll stare off through the darkness to find us a kingdom.
Just kiss me before I go.
I'll have to walk a thousand miles just to find the ground deserving of your feet.
You could throw me down and walk on me
and I'd just look on through my love and through the haze.
And I hope, your majesty that you like your position.
I'll do everything I can to keep you by my side
and I'll stare off through the darkness to find us a kingdom.
Just kiss me before I go.
The nightingales are singing now.
They're calling out our marriage to our subjects on their knees.
Their jewelery is thrown into the air.
They sigh at their release as their shackles hit the ground.
The trumpets call out now.
We're home at last.
And I hope, your majesty that you like your position.
I'll do everything I can to keep you by my side
and I'll stare off through the darkness to find us a kingdom.

Sunrise and I see her eyes, oh why'd you come, and oh why?
Eternally break the spell, I try to tell, but I don't.
Oh nightingale, oh nightingale,
Oh nightingale don't you cry.
So sad and my eyes go dead,
So red, so empty, so red.
You smile I chase my tail,
You laugh like hell, but I don't.
Oh nightingale, oh nightingale,
Oh nightingale don't you cry,
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry.
Oh nightingale,
Oh nightingale,
Oh nightingale,
Oh nightingale,
Oh nightingale,

I'm hanging on to my peace of mind
I just don't know
I'm hanging on to those good times, baby
Just want to let them roll
I'm gonna make it to the light and joy
I'll tell you why
I got a woman who can take me there
the apple of my eye
oh, I just don't know, no no, no, no
I love her so
Don't let me see that morning paper
cause I don't need those dues
it's just the same old murder movie
but they call it the news
I'll tell you what would be some story
and what would set me free
Is if the same thing happened to everybody
that just happened to me, oh,
I just don't know, no, no, no, no
I'll never let her go
Every time I hear somebody sneakin'
up behind whoa, I turn around
but I still hear that sound
and just when I'm about to lose my mind
Here comes my baby
singing like a nightingale
Coming my way down along that devastation
trail well tell the Lord above
she's got a brand of love
that cannot fail
I'm hanging on to my peace of mind
that's no lie
I'm hanging on to my special friend
the apple of my eye
my inspiration, too
she's got a lead on my heart and
my soul and she knows just what to do
oh, I just don't know, no ,no, no, no
No, I get so low, and my mind's about to go
but wait a minute, here comes my baby
singing like a nightingale
coming my way down along that devastation
trail
Well, let the fires burn, let the
floods return
we will prevail
Hanging on to my peace of mind

I can't sleep tonight, wide awake and so confused
Everything's in line, but I'm bruised
I need a voice to echo, I need a light to take me home
I kinda need a hero, is it you?
I never see the forest for the trees
I could really use your melody
Baby I'm a little blind
I think it's time for you to find me
Can you be my Nightingale?
Sing to me, I know you're there
You could my sanity
Bring me peace, sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my Nightingale
Somebody speak to me, ‘cause I'm feeling like hell
Need you to answer me, I'm overwhelmed
I need a voice to echo, I need a light to take me home
I need to star to follow, I don't know
I never see the forest for the trees
I could really use your melody
Baby I'm a little blind
I think it's time for you to find me
Can you be my Nightingale?
Sing to me, I know you're there
You could my sanity
Bring me peace, sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my Nightingale
I don't know what I'd do without you
Your words are like a whisper coming through
As long as you're with me here tonight, I'm good
Can you be my Nightingale?
Feel so close, I know you're there
Ohhhh Nightingale
Sing to me, I know you're there
‘Cause baby you're my sanity
You bring me peace, sing me to sleep

Before the morning comes
Will I hear your song?
Come little nightingale
I won't be here for long
When you're up there flying
Do you care
If there's no one else around?
When your lover leaves you
In the air
Do you waver, do you fall?
Now, while the moon is high
Shall we, nightingale
Duet all through the night?
A pair of souls for sale
Stars cluster glistening
Captive till the dawn
Patiently listening
They've heard it all before
Should I stay here or should I go?
I couldn't bear to be alone
Was it really love I saw?
Oh, now I'll never know
What is this I hear?
Recognize that song
Sweet little nightingale
I knew you'd come along
Soon when the morning comes
We will both be gone
So sing pretty nightingale

The memories of you will never fade away
You will always be a lonely stranger to my soul
Where are you now I guess that I will never know
(And) maybe you have died again to have a body of your own
One day you will be reborn, no recollection at all
No memories of who you were and who you used to be (no)
One day I have to explain, relive the heartache and pain
Cause you have the right to know just how it used to be (yeah)
I know that your soul will be alive again
You'll be around us like the wind and the rain and the stars
One day your soul will be alive again
I really hope you won't remember
Who you were and what you could do
[All instruments/vocals: DS]

[Nouga - Swano/Elkhart]
The rain is cold as ice today
The day I never wanted to come
We have come to the final round
We have reached the point of no return
I can see that you're afraid, but there is no way out
You are the one to show the way
This is the final dare
I know this could be your last day
I place the rope around your neck
I can see the anguish in your eyes
No! My breath is swept away by the sight I see
I cannot move, I cannot scream Oh, No!
He chokes for breath in vain
I fail to cut the rope in time
The game is over now
His broken soul is lost for evermore
I feel his soul far away
A part of me has died
I wonder who's to show the way
He left this world behind
I feel his soul far away
A part of me has died

[ Swano ]
I woke up laying in this bed
I didn't know if I was 'live or dead
Have I returned to reality
Have I escaped this evil entity?
I'v been...
Higher than the sky
Falling in and out of time
Once I saw him die
My remorse ain't worth a dime
If I only knew what was going on
I hear no voices, pray to god that they're gone
Someone must have found and then brought me here
I have been released from all the doubt and fear
Then this woman came into the room
She was so scared, but still she tried to stay
She spoke a tongue I couldn't understand
My guardian angel from a foreign land
She tried to explain how she brought me here
She found me lifeless in the cold
And there was something about me that wasn't right
So she rescued me from eternal night
And even though I can't understand the words she's saying
She's talking to my soul

I'm all alone
Waiting for no one
I see the daylight fade away
I'm so afraid
I know you're around me
I hear you crying in the wind
If I could bring you back
If I had the power, I'd give you my world
And my life, you'd have it all
But life is not a game
And I know the rules and I know I must follow
them every single day
I feel that I'm loosing it all
There's nothing left to live for
I'm ending it all in my dreams
It always seems so easy in my sleep
I'm all alone
Waiting for darkness
I wish the sun would slip away
I still believe that you didn't leave me
I see your shadow in the haze
If I could have some peace
Ending the nightmare, closing the chapter
And join you in your sleep
But life is not a game
And I know the rules and I know I must follow
them every single day
I feel that I'm loosing it all
There's nothing left to live for
I'm ending it all in my dreams
And deep inside I knew
That there was one part of me
That tried to save you from yourself
The other let you go and I will
Never deny I was walking on the line of

Anyway the wind blows.
I know you will return
And we will face it all again.
Now someone calls my name
I here the echoes in the rain
Now you have come for me
I can see the dark reflection
I can feel it in the air
The beginning of the end
I hear the voices call
Knowing that there's no hope at all
Soon I will join the dead
When I'm gone, I'm gone forever
I will never tell you
The reason why I left you all alone
Dust to dust, ashes to ashes
The pride and passion
The trials and the tribulations end tonight
And I'm never gonna be there when you stumble
I'm never gonna be there when you fall.
I hope that someone out here will remember (then) to tell you about me.
(And) suddenly the world was filled with silence
And even though the moonlight disappeared
I can see my destiny before me
It's real, no delusion.
I can feel my blood run cold
Oh, the creature I behold
It's got the kingdom of the night in its hands
The world around is liquefied
All the life around me died
I feel so weak and now a power is taking over me
Now I feel his energy surround me
I'm falling lifeless to the ground
Paralyzed I'm fading
Beyond you, beyond me
Shadowland, a place of beauty
A world eternal
Where wonders will never cease to be
A bed of nails or a bed of roses
Your life can end here
Or be sent back into reality again
I realize I'm deep inside of nowhere
The chamber where the shadows seal your fate
(And) I'm sure that there is someone else here with me
And it feels like I know you
Now the shadowman is rising here before me
I can see him glowing in the dark
Then I hear the echo of a whisper
You're over (you're over), I'm eternal (I'm eternal)
We must improve the shining hour
Her soul is laid to rest
We will never meet again
Your life is in our hands
Please live to fight another day
Someone will come for you
She has put us on the mettle
Practice what you preach
We must find a mother to the son
A boy as right as rain
Still far too young to share the pain
We'll find you another home
The cradle is left in a doorway
For the world to find him
If we only have faith in the angels
Someone will take you to their heart
You awake and cry out in anger
Now the world have found you
A hush bye in the arms of a stranger
Maybe they have found a home for you
I watch your tear-filled face
So pure in a state of grace
If the wish is the father to the thought
You are the answer to my prayers
I know it can be true
Someone will come for you
But until then I keep you warm
And be the mother your deserve
[Lead: TN/DS]
Although the world have been untold
It's like the truth won't unfold
Why have you come here?
Why am I the one?
You're bringing hope to my world
And put an end to my grief
Of all the loved ones I've lost in my days
You are the light inside
For a decade and half
For more than five thousand days
(It's) you have been here by my side
(And) you have grown so tall and strong
(And) even though I know that you won't stay forever
And that both of us will leave this world one day
Our bonds will be eternal
Our bonds will be eternal
Our bonds will be eternal
Our bonds will be eternal
Our bonds will be eternal
Our bonds will be eternal
[Guitars: DS]
[12 string: TN]

[Nouga - Swano]
Darkness all around me, I believe
That we will be together once again
The time has come to leave this dreadful place
I think I've found a way out of this maze
Tonight the moon will shine upon my grave
God has failed. Here's one he cannot save
My life is over, I just can't go on
Nowhere to run, I'm turning black inside
I hope to meet him in the other sky
I've realized I'm only born to die
I close my eyes and ask myself again
Is there really nothing left to do?
The silence in my heart just prove me right
Soon my journey will begin towards eternal night
I'm breathing water, death is closing in
It's cold and dark but I am not afraid
I'm out of breath. There's no way out of here

It's morning again.
I wish all the emptiness would end and my friend would return.
Though I know that you're still alive, I'm scared, I'm almost paralyzed
Of the emotions that's growing inside. And something is missing.
And when I take a look around me, it's like I see you everywhere,
Anywhere.
So long, still I wonder why. So long, and my river runs dry,
And I know all the secrets you know, But I don't know where to go.
Life must go on, though it is hard not to end it all.
I wish I had known what you knew. I'm blaming myself.
The shadow is oh, so strong, its power distorted my view.
And something is missing.
And when I take a look around me, it's like I see you everywhere,

Surrounded by silence, no-one is here with me.
I am alone, lost and solitaire.
And I have heard all the stories of heaven,
but where is the one I should meet'
No heartbeat, nor breath, only darkness everywhere.
Why am I here, I'm lost to this world, when innocence is my only excuse'
I saw no light, no replay of life, I felt neither joy or pain.
I wish to open my eyes and realize I'm not in paradise.
Chosen to be in the world of the blind
but why torture me with the presence of mind...
I want your body dead so that I can be reborn. It's my turn to live
now. I've been here in this place that turns hell into heaven for too long now.
I will have access to your mind and I will get what I want.
I still have some memories and an image of who I was,
I remember the tree and the shadow and her eyes.
Am I alive or is this a dream; a dream that never ever will end'
I don't want to know.
Deep inside of nowhere; trapped in a world that fears the light.
Deep inside of nowhere. Now it feels like I'm fading,
Now it feels like I'm fading away.
Suddenly the darkness awakened and it feels like it's clearing my mind.
My vision is gone, erasing the one I am.
Depraved of myself, now it's taking my thoughts away,
I feel it's enclosing me now but I don't want to go
Deep inside of nowhere; leaving this world that feeds the night.
Deep inside of nowhere; and it feels like I'm falling,
It feels like I'm falling asleep...
Waking up from my dreamless sleep,
It feels like I travel with the speed of light.
Somehow I feel a glimpse of hope inside,
But I guess it's far too early to tell.
I can't remember where I am, I can't remember where I used to be,
But I can remember what I think right now.
Am I closing in on heaven or am I closer to hell' Still no light around
But I feel what's lost have been found.
Deep inside of nowhere; still trapped in a world that fears the light.
Deep inside of nowhere. I'm lost to a world that feeds the night.
Deep inside of nowhere. I'm trapped in a world that feeds the night.
Deep inside of nowhere. Maybe I'm returning,

I told you my secret you said it would be safe
You would never show, and no one was to know
Sharing my burden, giving some relief
That was my true belief, but the I was deceived
Just like the light from the stars that keep on glowing when they turn to dust
You left your mark that stained my soul with your betrayal and your broken trust
Kissed me like Judas and poisoning my heart
That's what you've done to me
I want all of the world to see
Just like the light from the stars that keep on glowing when they turn to dust
You left your mark that stained my soul with your betrayal and your broken trust
Oh I wish we'd never met
It's time to forgive now, it's time to forget
Then these feelings would be gone
It's time to look forward, it's time to move on
I'll never know the answer why
Never know why
Don't need your confession, or any lame excuse
Because what goes around, always comes around
Just like the light from the stars that keep on glowing when they turn to dust

All my life
You have been here beside me
Through the days and nights
We were as one
Now you're gone
I'm sorry that I couldn't see
That I treated you wrong
That I drove you away
Oh... my love don't leave me here alone
Oh... I cannot make it on my own
Without you all I am will slowly fall apart
I need you here to bring some light into my heart
Now and then
I feel you inside of my soul
Like a flash of light
In the dead of night
Everyday I hope I will meet you again
And invite you to stay
Forevermore
Oh... my love don't leave me here alone
Oh... I cannot make it on my own
Without you all I am will slowly fall apart
I need you here to bring some light into my heart
Then there is moments just like this
Times that I so dearly miss
When you return in all your glory
A piece of paper and pen
Some time alone and then
We are immortalized forever
I beg you

We used to be together
Now we're worlds apart
Nevermore will I be near you
Or feel your hand in mine
The days are filled with sorrow
The nights will never end
The silence here is suffocating
I feel so numb inside
Every time that I fall asleep
I can feel you're here beside me
Every time that I call your name
I believe that you can hear me
I am living in this world alone
With no one here to guide me
If only you could be here with me
Then you would make me whole again
Blame it on illusion
And "what I want to see"
But I am sure that you can see me
My heart will never fail
An act of desperation
A creation of despair
In empty rooms our name still echoes
But you are never there to reply
I hate the silence
Where are you now?
Every time that you fall asleep
I'm laying her beside you
Every time that you call my name
It is true that I can hear you
I find it hard being on my own
In my mind we're still together
Always talking to your photograph

I haven't been here in a long long time
It feels so good to be home
Sitting right here light a fire inside
It's so hard to explain
And as the real world disappear
Awaken my memories
Oh, it's all coming back to me
There's something in here, I believe it's love
That sets me free to explore
All of the things that I chose to hide
Now I can see who I am
I am out in the garden where we played
Here began the endless dream
We will never come back
Now I am sitting here in the pouring rain
Something is guiding me right
I feel the fire inside
My heart is telling me that I am on my way
To redefine who I am
I will be stronger this time
I will be myself to the very end
Coming back here is like coming back to life
I feel empowered and new
It's hard to believe that it was so long ago
I called this place my home
Here in this town where I was born
Everything move so fast
I feel like a stranger out here
Now I am sitting here in the pouring rain
Something is guiding me right
I feel the fire inside
My heart is telling me that I am on my way
To redefine who I am
I will be stronger this time
I will be myself to the very end
My head is spinning, I've had the weirdest day
It's really hard to explain
I wish I could tame this ghost in my heart

(Breathless. Part II)
The memories of you will never fade away
You will always be a lonely stranger to my soul
Where are you now I guess that I will never know
(And) maybe you have died again to have a body of your own
One day you will be reborn, no recollection at all
No memories of who you were and who you used to be (no)
One day I have to explain, relive the heartache and pain
Cause you have the right to know just how it used to be (yeah)
I know that your soul will be alive again
You'll be around us like the wind and the rain and the stars
One day your soul will be alive again
I really hope you won't remember
Who you were and what you could do

I'm afraid I have to go and never return
It will be over in a while
I can't believe I'm going to die
There is no remedy or cure
This is the end I'm going to die
So many things I wanna do, that I wanna try
But they say the end is nigh
All of my dreams are fading away
Why is it happening to me
Life is pain when you're going to die
I never found the time to tell the world
I'm sorry for the things I have done
They might be wrong
And there could be a miracle
A raincheck on my demise?
In my dreams they find a cure
I feel so alive
You find me walking on the wind
But then I wake up with tears in my eyes
My heart is pounding and I feel that I am dying
I'm dying inside
They gave me days, maybe a week
Before I must go to the land of no return
I wish I knew if I was going to burn
Or if the angels will arrive
And show me the heaven I denied.
I never found the time to tell the world
I'm sorry for the things I have done
No, I was wrong it was too late for miracles

My heart never wanted to leave
The silence was gold for my soul
But I am heading back home, I return
To the world that I decide to leave
My life is a waste of time
I wish I could end it
But something won't let me go
I'm back, everything looks the same
All these people but I still alone
I'm soon to arrive at the place where my fear was born
Torn, torn apart
The scars are still bleeding inside
I'll never forgive you
One part of me always cry
And it's crying 'cause of you
So long ago
I gave you my heart, it was...
So long ago
I gave you my soul, it was...
So long ago
But you gave me hell in return
You made what I am here today
All the sadness you brought to my soul
Is something I'll never find ways to defy
If you could see me what you've done to me now
Maybe you would understand
The love you never gave me
Would have made me much stronger inside
But it is too late to change
So long ago
I gave you my heart
So long ago
And I gave you my soul
So long ago
And I gave you, I gave you my heart
So long ago
But you gave me hell in return
I'm back where the darkness began
All is empty, not a soul around
Where are you now?
Where did all of you go?
Nothing is left
Nothing is left from before
It seems like a lifetime has passed here

I see the day is coming
The night is led astray
The dawn of new desires
The end of yesterday
I walk the road to nowhere
Ah, that's what I call home
If I only knew what I was heading for,
But I don't have a place to roam
And then I heard the voices calling
Across the sky in flames
I could hear them clearer now
Once again I could hear them say:
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I'll remain awake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Could be my last mistake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
From a place of shelter
Where I could get some rest
I was so cold but I couldn't care
And soon the sun caressed
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I'll remain awake
Dream, dream!
I can hear them say
Close your eyes my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the voices say
Go to sleep my friend!
I'll make no more mistake
Dream, dream!
I could hear them say
Go to sleep my friend!
My frozen eyes refuse to see
Something tells me it's too dangerous to sleep
It's like I've been thru this before
Here I am! Frozen to the core
...Frozen to the core...
I know I must be dreaming
Or am I still awake
Hallucinations rule me
But right now, what difference does it make?
...I am falling again...
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I remain awake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the darkness breathe
Go to sleep my friend!
And I fade away
Dream, dream!
I heard the voices say
Close your eyes my friend!
And now I fade away
Dream, dream!

[Swano - Swano/Elkhart]
I'm feeling so empty inside
When the fragments of pain return from the back of my mind
Of all of the lies I've been told "We love you" must be the worst
I couldn't find any reason to stay
My life is too precious to sacrifice
The darkest of shadows follow my soul
Tonight I will join all lost ones on the run
I have to run away
I'm all alone in this world
When the memories arise and punch a new hole in my soul
I'm hiding my head in my hands for the fragments to disappear
I wait for the nightfall, eager to leave
I whisper goodbye to the house of fear
Watching my sister cry in her sleep
One day she will understand
I know I'm scarred for life
all messed up with no place to go
I'm out here all alone
Lonelier than the streets I wander
I'll always have these scars inside
I'm scarred for life
I'm lost in the cold of the night
Looking for shelter until the dawn turns to day
I'm holding my hands to my head
For the silence to reappear
The fragments and places remembered with fear
Never to leave, just fade away
I'll carry them with me forever and a day

I still feel your presence
Although you're not here
Your voice your smile and laughter
Is now replaced with fear
I'm holding on to memories
That slowly fade away
Force my self to hold on
And to live for one more day
Time is a two-faced creature
Of mercy and of pain
No way to control it
All efforts is in vain
Destiny is lawless
It makes up its own rules
Together they are mocking
And make us look - make us look like fools
Give me reasons to leave
Turn around and walk away
Give me reasons to stay
And be a part of this world once again
Give me reasons to leave
Turn around and walk away
Give me reasons to stay
You held the fate of my life in your hands
I thought I could handle everything
I thought that I was strong
Life was running flawless
And nothing could go wrong
But I froze when I saw it coming
Oh, the turning of tide
Washed away in sadness
With no place for me to hide
Give me reasons to leave
Turn around and walk away
Give me reasons to stay
And be a part of this world once again
Give me reasons to leave
Turn around and walk away
Give me reasons to stay
And be a part of this world once again
Give me reasons to leave
Turn around and walk away
Give me reasons to stay

Just another midnight hour
Enjoying the cold of a dark winter night
I see the darkness devour
Everything that once was light
And the stars in the sky
Are so lifeless and so grey
Walking in the light of the moon
When the night repairs the day
From the trees comes a mourful tune
I am not alone I can hear them say
The moon is your guide
There is no place you can hide
Oh, when the night comes down
And all the colours turns black and white
Oh, when the night comes down
And the dark is conducting the nightfall overture
Who am I in the eyes of the world
What have I done that will remain
Who am I? Will I ever know?
But right now I am the king of this winterlane
Is there anybody out there?
In the middle of the mist in the field
The air doesn't relieve me anymore
Something is here that I have never felt before
...And it's closing in on me...
I am lost in the maze of the night
Surrounded by lights so dark
I am losing all track of time
I'm trying to come out of this endless park
And the air is so dry
I can hear the daylight cry
...Is there anybody out there???...
( Swano )
I see the day is coming
The night is led astray
The dawn of new desires
The end of yesterday
I walk the road to nowhere
Ah, that's what I call home
If I only knew what I was heading for,
But I don't have a place to roam
And then I heard the voices calling
Across the sky in flames
I could hear them clearer now
Once again I could hear them say:
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I'll remain awake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Could be my last mistake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
From a place of shelter
Where I could get some rest
I was so cold but I couldn't care
And soon the sun caressed
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I'll remain awake
Dream, dream!
I can hear them say
Close your eyes my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the voices say
Go to sleep my friend!
I'll make no more mistake
Dream, dream!
I could hear them say
Go to sleep my friend!
My frozen eyes refuse to see
Something tells me it's too dangerous to sleep
It's like I've been through this before
Here I am! Frozen to the core
...Frozen to the core...
I know I must be dreaming
Or am I still awake
Hallucinations rule me
But right now, what difference does it make?
...I am falling again...
Dream, dream!

Dream, dream!
I hear the darkness breathe
Go to sleep my friend!
And I fade away
Dream, dream!
I heard the voices say
Close your eyes my friend!
And now I fade away
Dream, dream!

We'll be together forever
Without you I'm sure I will never
Live through the day, you're the lifeblood in me
All of the days I've been living
I never took, always giving
Take me for granted I'll always be here
For you
Tell me something more to tell you
We're only talking if it matters to you
Tell me something more to tell you
I wish I could be more than no one
I know this game, it will go on
I am one the pawns and you're always the king
Tell me something more to tell you
We're only talking if it matters to you
Tell me something more to tell you
I am so lonely without you
When I am alone I'm beyond blue
I am the jester in the kingdom of you
Tell me something more to tell you
We're only talking if it matters to you
Tell me something more to tell you
Tell me something more to tell you
We're only talking if it matters to you

He always tried to seize the day
Now he let it slip away
Shining sun or falling rain
Doesn't matter anymore
Another boring day begins
Already knows how it will end
And now he's losing faith in you
You used to guide him
You showed the way the he should follow
He built a world upon your promise
He would be saved
He's all alone, no one to hold
When the nights are long and cold
He prayed to you for some relief
For some reward for his belief
He tried so hard to do it right
Saw the world in black and white
But now it's fading into grey
He feel temptation
He's never had a night of passion
Or numbed his mind with the firewater
Never felt alive
Oh he's lost again
Now the world will see
Another soul led astray
Another destiny thrown away
The one way ticket in his trembling hand
Is the testimony to the tragedy
Was he never meant to be
never meant to be
He boarded the plane towards the end
A grave among the neon lights
Realized his wildest dreams
In a drunken, hazy night
He sold his life and the money made
Spent it all on the last crusade
His celebration of the end
The one's who found him
Said he smiled and looked so peaceful
And in his hand he held a letter
It said... "No one came"
I hope you're happy in the world beyond
That you find what you need
That you get what you want
The world has lost again
And no one will see
Another soul led astray
Another destiny thrown away
The final letter in his lifeless hand
Is the testimony to the tragedy

I can still remember the life I had before
One of the careful children of the light
No one heard my prayers no one came to save
Save me from the forces of the dark
Inside looking outside
Doomed to avoid the sun
A slave to darkness at nightfall I arise
I never believed that they were real, just a fable
All of the stories I have heard, could be real now
There is no cure for what I am, I'm eternal
Now I know, I'm one of them,
One of the creatures of the night
We're always all around you
At night we're rising to feed
We lie in wait in the shadows 'til the dawn
I know you won't believe me
I hardly believe it myself
But I can feel my soul have been replaced
I never believed that they were real, just a fable
All of the stories I have heard, could be real now
There is no cure for what I am, I'm eternal
Now I know, I'm one of them,
One of the creatures of the night
Waiting for the night
To shelter me
I'm ling out of sight
For the world to see
I will be alive
Forevermore
When the sunlight disappear
You better stay away
You better get down and pray
There is no escape
Once you're in my sight
You can see your fate
In my demonic eyes
You will be one of us
A child of the night
You will never die

I believe in self-destruction
I am heading for the grave
I am losing my direction
I will never smile again
I am waiting for the downfall
I'm longing for the end
The darkness all around me is my one and only friend
I believe that life is just a game
Another day, but the pain remains the same
Eternal misery
I'm living in denial of all I am
The world around is waiting for me to stumble and to fall
And whenever I need someone I always find no one at all
It has always been this way for me since the day that I was born
A bearer of a shattered soul and a mind all ripped and torn
I believe that life is just a game
Another day but the pain remains the same
Eternal misery
I'm living in denial of all I am
I feel my time is running out
I am wasted in this world
But I am too afraid to end my life
I live in fear of the other side
I find shelter in the liquids
I'm hiding in the smoke
I wish I knew why I was born and why my life such a joke
I am the god of self-deception in the kingdom of despair
Even in the light of day I see darkness everywhere
I am looking for the answer
Can you tell me why I am here
I'm feeling weaker day by day
I am soon to disappear
I can feel my time is running out
I'll never know what life is all about
Eternal misery

[Swano]
Day and night just come and go
I hate that life is so deceiving
I feel this urge to turn away
From all the sadness and grieving
I find my way back to the place where we were parted
All I hear is my heart pounding inside
I'm so afraid of what I'll see when I return
There's a part of me that needs to say goodbye
Until we meet again
Now and then he reappears
In my dreams
In my illusions
Pointing out the chosen path
It feels so real
Am I really dreaming?
Soon I'll see what time has done to my creation
Hell on Earth is just a few steps away
The Sun is hiding
I am in the heart of darkness
I'm closing in on the godforsaken tree
The moment I defy the pain
Is here again, in another way
All the fear in my life
Is erased from my soul
I never knew that my fantasies
Could be oh so close to reality
And what I see here right now
Is so hard to believe
I see the rope, my friend is gone
His body's nowhere to be found
I hear him whisper in the wind
I hear him calling out my name
Am I going insane?
The moment I defy the fear
Is here again, I can feel he's near
All the fear in my life
Have returned to my soul
I never knew that my fantasies
Could be oh so close to reality
And what I'm hearing right now

The dawn replace the night
It brings me shelter from the darkness
And let me live another day.
I hear the night birds sing
Their final encore to the moonlight
The morning sun is on the rise.
In the safety of the light
I see the world ignite.
For some a day, for some a lifetime.
The spirits all around us
Are so anxious in their daydreams
I know something here ain't right.
I hear that you're awake
Your eyes are smiling when you see me
You are purity personified.
In the safety of the light
I see the world ignite.
For some a day, for some a lifetime.
The real life tragedienne
Defy the shadows again
Out of the darkness, into the light
A will of steel inside
Rule over time and tide
Out of the darkness, into the light
The nightfall dim the light
And bring me closer to the darkness
And deprive me of another day.
Oh, I hear the night birds sing,
They sing the tribute to the moonlight
While the sun dies in the sky
The real life tragedienne
Defy the shadows again
Out of the daylight
Into the night
I must be strong inside
Now there's no place to hide
Out of the daylight
Into the night
Among the shadows here
All goodness disappear
Out of the daylight
Into the night
I must be strong inside
Now there's no place to hide
Out of the daylight, into the night
[Guitars: TN]

There's a place that no one knows of
A safe haven filled with bliss
It's far away I'd like to stay there
And make my clouded sky clear up
No tears no sorrow
In my hideaway of dreams
Suddenly my pain has turned into laughter
No restrains are keeping me locked inside this shell I'm in
And soon reality comes crawling again
Disabled as I lie, you enjoy life
(you enjoy life)
There's no light, where I'm abandoned
I've lost all track of time and space
No friendly face, is recognized here
Behind my eyes I'm still awake
Suddenly my pain has turned into laughter
No restrains are keeping me locked inside this shell I'm in
And soon reality comes crawling again
Disabled as I lie, you enjoy life
(you enjoy life)
I'm stashed away, to waste away
I won't be preying on your mind anymore
I will forgive, you will forget
What goes around will come around at the end
Suddenly my pain has turned into laughter
No restrains are keeping me locked inside this hell I'm in

Now I know
Nothing's ever what it seems
Money talks
Now I see Religion screams
I believe
What I hear and what I see
And in myself
The king of my own destiny
The angles of heavens, the demons of hell
The creatures we had to create
Why are you scared to see who you are
Be in control of your life
And fate
I can't see
Why you choose to dedicate
All your life
to assure you went to heaven's gate
The angles of heavens, the demons of hell
The creatures we had to create
Why are you scared to see who you are
Be in control of your life
And fate
I can't say
That I am right and you are wrong
But common sense can tell a truth or two
All those lives
Lost in battle of belief
An it's all because
You were pull to believe
In different lies
The angles of heavens, the demons of hell
The creatures we had to create
Why are you scared to see who you are
Be in control of your life
If god is above and the devil beneath
Then we all belong here on earth
Cause no one is good or evil to the core

I can feel your heart inside me. You are alive like the wind,
And soon your soul will be free again.
I know that I have saved you from the other side,
It's like the evil around me's scared because of my pride.
All my life I have wished for this moment to come,
When my body would put a newborn light upon the earth.
I can feel it inside, I can feel that it's you,
And you will never believe that you will been alive before.
I know your soul is erased, the whole of you is defaced
even though your body's here it's not my friend inside.
I know that your soul will be alive again.
I know It will be around like the wind and the rain and the stars.
And I know that your soul will be alive again.
I'll light a candle to remember who you were and who you will be.
The time has come I can feel the ache inside.
You have decided to leave the ocean sky tonight.
Noone is here to bring you into this world.
I'll try to deny my pain and help you out alone
And then the shadow arise, I can see in his eyes,
He no longer denies the fact that you will be reborn.
I feel the pleasure and pain, like my heart is in vain,
But you finally came and now you are here with me.
[Shadowland Revisited]
I'm lost. I have to go. He's my son, but he will never know.
I will return to the shadows and wait for rebirth as well.
life on Earth is so bizarre I prefer the world beyond. Farewell.
[Breathless]

When I was young I thought the world around could see the vision through my eyes
Communicating through my melodies I knew the world would help me through
Then I grew up to find that all the dreams I had in mind required more then my gift
More of the pain than the pleasure
Better safe than sorry
And here I am losing everything again
I'll never have to worry about the game
I'll never win I'll never lose
I'm not playing at all
Never gamble at all
Many years ago I met the one, and all my dreams of angels faded away
I opened up and even let her in, to kill the enemy within
And even though she tried to keep her love for me alive
Oh it kills me to say, I let it wither away again
Better safe than sorry
And here I am losing everything again
I'll never have to worry about the game
I'll never win I'll never lose
Better safe than sorry
And here I am losing everything again
I'll never have to worry about the game
I'll never win I'll never lose
I'm not playing at all
Oh, that I'm lonely
Without someone by my side
I long for the only person in this world who's a part of me
I'm taking back of all the things I've been going through
You gave me strength to carry on
I'll do the best I can to make you want to be around
I really need you in my life
And maybe I was born to wander through this world alone
I left a good life behind where my heart beating nigh forever
Better safe than sorry
And here I am losing everything again
I'll never have to worry about the game
I'll never win I'll never lose
Better safe than sorry
And here I am losing everything again
I'll never have to worry about the game
I'll never win I'll never lose

Now I Am here again
So tired of pretending
I know what my life is about
Trying to find a way
The almighty solution
Before I have run out of time
I still remember when
I believed that the fire
Inside me was destined to burn
Every day and night
For as long as 'I'm breathing
Now only the ashes remain
Always seek always speak
Of the moment all comes together
Am I back right on track
Are the changes made to the better
I hope that what will end all this confusion
The conclusion
I am just healing the wounds of my soul
(healing the wounds of my soul)
Maybe I'll never learn
From all the mistakes I have done
Since the day I was born
Maybe I'll die alone
Surrounded by memories
Of all of the love I denied
Always seek always speak
Of the moment all comes together
Am I back right on track
Are the changes made to the better
I hope that what will end all this confusion
The conclusion
I am just healing the wounds of my soul
Here in the darkness
I wait for the light to arise
And bring me back to where my heart was filled with life
Here in the darkness
Will someone please show me the way
To reignite the spark
And let me glow again
Here in this empty room
In my tower of sorrow
I decide to start over again
I hope to find someone new
That will search for the pieces
And try to recover my heart
Always seek always speak
Of the moment all comes together
Am I back right on track
Are the changes made to the better
I hope that what will end all this confusion
The conclusion

Nothing can move me when I'm fading
Slowly turning into air
No one can see me when I'm hiding
Somewhere beyond reality
I'm drifting away to my own landscape
Floating on the rivers of despair
And when the world upon my shoulders wears too heavy
I let it slip away
I am safe here
Inside my white darkness
Problems don't bother me in here
All alone here, a world in white darkness
The one place to where I always will return
Always will return
I won't deny that I am tempted
To stay here and to never ever leave
But to go where for good I need a reason
A battle impossible to win
Nowadays I'm stronger, feeling more secure
Dealing with my problems that I've had before
I've finally found the harmony I need in life
I need to be awake, don't let it wither away
We all have dark days in our lives
There will always be the moments when life has no mercy
Any loved ones will believe him
Before we die
I am safe here
Inside my white darkness
Problems don't bother me in here
All alone here, a world in white darkness
The one place to where I always will return

Suddenly something changed inside as like the darkness turn to light.
And I saw reflections from the past flashing by
Like a starfall in the night.
It feels like I'm turn into someone else,
It's like my past life said goodbye.
Reincarnation of our souls well now I know it's not a lie.
I wonder what I will be or when I'll arrive'
The magic moment my body comes alive.
But who am I to say all this, I may not even remember what I miss.
I can come to a different part of the earth, maybe to another world.
Who can tell'
I know he is out there pretending he's me,
I guess it's a sight I will never see.
I still remember a few things from my past,
But only things in relation to aghast
Here in this waiting room for one's to be,
I guess there's nothing more to do
than to realize I might be reborn and the whole of me will be new
Oh how I wish I could dream again so I could dream of you.
But It took the last of my soul, it took the last of my soul,
but I remember you.
I wonder if she can remember, or maybe the world doesn't even exist.
To me it feels like yesterday, but I might have been lost,
I might have been lost for ages.
Wishing I could be more human, though I know I still have a soul.
With a few sad memories, without any sentences structure,
I may be lost forever. And the darkness turn black again,
And now the journey will begin, am I moving to another stage,
In the process of clearing my thoughts.
It seems like my mind is harder to erase
I may remember too much from the past.
The darkness' no longer carrying me,
and it feels like I'm back at square one.
The pressure is driving me insane,
and maybe there is no sanity left.
This stage of cleansing is twisting my thoughts,
I can think no more, and once again I'm falling a sleep...
Unintelligent life is born, our friend is no longer here.
He's replaced, he's initialized and noone shed a tear'
He was so eager to live again, but now he's gone for all time.

[Swano/Nouga - Swano/Elkhart]
So lonely - feeling so alone in the dark
The world is really fierce out here
I'm so alone and scared
I'm tired and the cold is getting to my bones
Everything is so unreal, fighting on my own
My heart is pounding fast
So lonely - thinking of the end I'm soon to see
Keeping all my tears inside leaving all the world behind
I don't know where to run
Oh, I don't know where to go from here
I don't know right from wrong
I just have to carry on
Awakened by a stranger looking down at me
Another soul on the run
Telling me his heart is glad to find me
Together we will try to make it out alive
I see the horror in his eyes, his story isn't far from mine
We don't know where to run
Oh, we don't know where to go from here
We don't know right from wrong
We just have to carry on
We don't know where to run
Oh, we don't know where to go from here
The dreams we have inside will come true and we will be reborn tonight
I've found a friend
Someone that is sharing my pain
Now I know that there is something good in all this darkness
We are throwing all our fears into the fire

Come into my game of solitaire
You could enter in and read me like a scrawl
Adrift upon the tide and in the air
I will let you see the dreamer through the wall
I wish that we could pick the world apart
I believe there is someone inside the pain
Life is wasted here behind the veil
I will never be free
Can't you see that I've mourned again
I watch the days they crash into the night
All the secrecy the angels never came
The fine line between what's yours and mine
Is it mine alone the solitude of shame
The whispered word and now you're on my side
I am almost alive in your care my love
I'll believe you when you set me free
I'll believe you though you don't know who I am
Take me through the darkness to the world beyond
Will you wait for my arrival at the wake
No one will remember me when I have gone
And they'll never understand they're at the wake
The fear of fire burning red and white
Will my name remain carved inside a stone
Your celestial son is born tonight
To a waiting grave the dreamers have to go
I see the signs of the veil up high
I can feel you whenever you move on the wall
I'll release you when you've turned the tide
I'll release you and burn you away from my soul
Someone here will never see the world outside
I will never know who's waiting at the wake
Someone here will never have to be alone
You're the one who will remember at the wake
I'll let the waters cleanse my eyes
And follow the priest into the circular light
I'll let you go when I have fallen
And you don't know where you've arrived this time my love
Curse believe me when I summon you
There's another dream it beckons you to go
Summer's waiting for you to be new
I'll erase the dream now I go to sleep
And I can feel forever cry for me this time
You are not the only one here at the wake
No one will remember what was once my crime

I can feel your heart inside me. You are alive like the wind,
And soon your soul will be free again.
I know that I have saved you from the other side,
It's like the evil around me's scared because of my pride.
All my life I have wished for this moment to come,
When my body would put a newborn light upon the earth.
I can feel it inside, I can feel that it's you,
And you will never believe that you will been alive before.
I know your soul is erased, the whole of you is defaced
even though your body's here it's not my friend inside.
I know that your soul will be alive again.
I know It will be around like the wind and the rain and the stars.
And I know that your soul will be alive again.
I'll light a candle to remember who you were and who you will be.
The time has come I can feel the ache inside.
You have decided to leave the ocean sky tonight.
Noone is here to bring you into this world.
I'll try to deny my pain and help you out alone
And then the shadow arise, I can see in his eyes,
He no longer denies the fact that you will be reborn.
I feel the pleasure and pain, like my heart is in vain,

All I can feel is the beat of my heart
And I count every breath that I take
The darkness will drain all the pleasure and pain
And delete all emotions inside of me
(For better or worse)
There's a shadow in my soul now
I feel it inside as I am fading away
(The replay of my life)
I see it running in my mind now
Familiar faces smiling back at me
On the day I was born
Now I am dying all alone
A view from the past will remind me of the good times
That I had in the innocent days
I was one of the young with a spirit so strong
Never knew make believe from reality
(The tears that I cry)
Through the eyes of the betrayer
It might be the last that I taste in this life
(There's no room for the sorrow) in this is image of a lifetime
Only delight and the joy life has given me
Oh, it's taking me back to the glory days
I smile as I fade in this empty space
The memories awake and it feels like I'm alive
(Like I'm alive) in the glory days.
[Lead: DS/TN]
I have no regrets, I know there is no return
Awaiting the end of it all
But I'm walking on air every minute in here
This is a beautiful way to go
It's taking me back (taking me back) to the glory days
I smile as I fade in this empty space
The memories awake (the memories awake) and it feels like I'm alive
(Like I'm alive) in the glory days.
I know the end will soon be here
And all I am will disappear
I wish I could stay in wonderland
And relive the glory days
[Guitars: DS]

Tell me why I stand here again
I cannot seem to make up my mind
And now I'm right where I wanted to be
But still I find it hard to smile
I wait for the euphoria to come
Maybe I've got it all wrong
I'm stranded
On the fields of life
Not again, I said to myself
But there you were and shook me around
Dragged me out from the cave in my mind
A place I wanted no one to find
Destiny has always had a way with me
Opened up my lying eyes and made me see
I hope you hear me
When you come too near me
I don't know how to handle desire
On the fields of life
I don't know where to go
On the fields of life
I don't know where to turn
On the fields of life
I don't wanna loose what I have found
A light in the darkness around
Why can't I let go of the fear
And let all my doubt disappear
I depend on the balance divine
Always so hard to combine
I hate the insecurity inside of me
I will always be my biggest enemy
I will always fear me
Cause when no one steer me I will go
Into the fire alight
On the fields of life
I don't know where to go
On the fields of life
I don't know where to turn
On the fields of life
I don't wanna die alone

[ Swano ]
I fly away to another dimension
Far beyond reality
I fly away from these evil voices
Is it time to meet my destiny?
It brings me back to my childhood
And the hateful memories
The show is rolling before my eyes
And once again I see the tragedies
Dreamland is calling I am drifting away
Far from the shadows that's haunting my day
Now I can see the old wood hillside
That's the place where we used to play
I brings me closer to the place I fear
The place where my best friend passed away
I didn't mean it, I couldn't know
But what I did made him fall dead to the ground
I get to see the scene repeated
And then I hear the voices call
Dreamland is showing the dark of my past
One with the shadows, the die has been cast
...And I lost...
...I lost...
Let me wake, let me open up my eyes
Back to reality
This nightmare seems so real
There is no way to be free
I must return to my body
I will die if I don't wake up
The voices say that I should stay
I wish that I could make them stop
Dreamland is hell and I know it for sure
I need to stay alive and this ain't no cure
I feel that I am fading away
The shadow come closer and it forces to stay
I'm falling apart with every beat of my heart
The frost in my soul is so cold
And in the haze I see a hand to hold
I try to reach out but it's moving away
And the voices are laughing

I'm taken through the hourglass
I'm being tossed upon the sand
Am I alone
The words still linger
In my head
I'm breathing in the salty air
There is a mark upon my hand
Is there a seat for me
Among the dreaming dead
I was sealed in a tomb of sadness
I was trapped in a cell of sleep
I was held by the hands of time
Now this time is mine to keep
I'm still alive
Far from the casket and cradle
I'm still alive
I've taken the fate out of fatal
I'm still alive
They tied me to the pendulum
They hung my heart across the sky
I found my soul eclipsed
My body crucified
I was caged in the age of miracles
I was set in a hollow sky
I was kept under shadow's lock
Now I don't know how to die
I'm still alive
Far from the casket and cradle
I'm still alive
I've taken the fate out of fatal
I'm still alive
My star is rising now
As the ferryman appears
He bears an offering
A piece of silver for my fears
I couldn't cut the deal
Mine is not his fate to buy
And as I fly my canvas
He ascends on high
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens
(I feel his icy breath of fire consuming me)
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens
(The demon rises up, a bird of coal and flame)
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens
(I am surrounded by the wings of water now)
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens
(They've come to lift me out of here)
I'm still alive
Far from the casket and cradle
I'm still alive
I've taken the fate out of fatal

The time has come to tell the story.
You have to know.
I must unveil the truth about the way that we are
Oh, I'm afraid
I can't imagine what it must be like
To hear the words that I'm about to tell you: your world is a lie
Oh no I can't believe it nor deny it
Can someone tell me what I am to do now
Why was I abandoned did they leave me for dead
(And) the writing on the wall leaves me in a state of shock
Oh, who am I?
I'm just a stranger to myself
My heart is aching
I must find the truth of my life
Now I will be searching night and day
Until the day I will reveal the secret
A necessary evil but I'll do what it takes
I just have to find the one that will end the state of shock
Now I will be searching night and day
Until the day I will reveal the secret
A necessary evil but I'll do what it takes
I just have to find the one that will end the state of shock
I wave goodbye
I see you're crying
But I'll return to tell the story
So I can paper over the cracks in my soul
I can hear the voices in the night
I can't be real, it's my imagination
I know that I am worried
That I'm tired and afraid
Just a stranger in the dark living in a state of shock
Living, living in a state of shock
Living, living in a state of shock
Living, living in a state of shock

The memories remain from when I was alive
All I used to be is buried in the snow.
I lie there all alone faraway from home,
Fought until the end, with nothing to defend
We were told that we were heroes
Not to be defeated
We found it out the hard way, they all lied
I can see the few remaining dying all around me
None of them will go to heaven
Let me take you back to where it all began
Remind you of the pain gathered here today
I was young, the road before me wide and never-ending
Heading for a life of you and me
The days of joy, the tears of laughter
Echoes here forever.
The time had come to prove I was a man.
One of a million marching into a certain grave
I made the war my enemy, no lorry to the brave
If only I could find, a way to ease my mind
Leave all this pain behind.
Why I am here. Tell me why
The world I knew was out of reach
Reality was under siege
The innocent was torn apart
In this hell out there we were dying one by one
Faraway from the battlefield
By the choices made our fate was sealed
The visions of a mind insane
Is to blame for this massacre in vein
Never to retreat
Never say surrender
The winter and the cold
The invincible defender
They had the nation and Mother Nature on their side:
I was told I'd be a hero
I would be rewarded
But I don't see the stone upon my grave
Now I am just a lonely spirit
Trapped inside a nightmare

I'm in too deep
Climbing up and down these walls
My heart is lost
Though I never thought I'd give it up
Now I'm back in the darkness
Of the waiting room for ones to be
I sacrifice your body and my soul
So that he'll be coming back for you
So that he'll be coming back for you
Cause when you feel all the darkness surround you
You're selling your soul to the shadowman
In pain you are begging your master to guide you
Back to the dark though you don't know why
And now you realize that your soul is no longer alive
And than you feel that you are dead inside
The stars align
In a formation never seen before
A premonition, a prophecy
(And) the shadow has returned to life
I hope you won't remember
Who you were and how you used to be
You gave it up cause you couldn't take the pain
Of always looking through a strangers eyes
All the stars alight
In the newborn night
They are falling from the sky
And the colors here around me is fading to gray
Now I can feel that the powers surround me
Caught in the spell of the shadowman
The spirits awake and they gather to hide you
Cause this is the end and I don't know why
What in the world can I have done to deserve the pain
That is burning inside me as I close my eyes.
The light of the day has awakened to open up my eyes
Where are you now, did he take you away
The spirits arise and they tell me that they will show the way
They will lead me to a sanctuary
If you were there it would really ease the pain
(Aaaah :) He will return tonight
[Lead: DS/TN/DS/TN]
Now you're on the outside looking in
Waiting for the battle to begin
Waiting for the shadowman to take a part of me
Wonder why he couldn't end it all
When he had the chance to make me fall
Could it be the love inside of you?
Now I can see that the darkness surround me
The night is in league with the shadowman
All of the spirits are gathered beside you
Guarding your soul in the candlelight
If we are strong and fill our hearts with love we'll survive
The joy and the laughter will defend your life
