- A Lesson In Evil
I try to escape from the shadows of mine
It's following me wherever I go
It's like someone is breathing behind
My own reflection has turned into my foe
I hear his voice as he speaks unto me
I am here to torment, you will never be free
You'll know the difference of pleasure and pain
If you're sunshine the I am the rain
- A Raincheck On My Demise
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
- Alonely
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
- Belief
Now I know nothing's what it seems
Money talks
Now I see religion screams
I believe in what I hear and what I see
and in myself, the king of my own destiny
The angles of heaven, the demons of hell
are creatures we had to create
- Chasing The Storm Away
Seeing it all, but do we really understand
The consequence of choosing to ignore
Or is it just a paralysing state of mind
No one seems to bother anymore
Still we try to keep our sleeping conscious clean
But doing "right" has never been more wrong
- Deep Inside of Nowhere
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.
- Drowning In Sadness
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
- Eye for an Eye
I have no control, he's making my moves
I am like a puppet on a string
To get a hold of my body he must empty my soul
But right now I wonder what the end will bring
- Forevermore
Her face was smiling, her bright eyes were filled with tears
A people's temple were crowded, she felt no fear
And then she saw him, a man in white
He came so close, she touched him with her hand
And when she heard him, all doubts were gone
"I really think he is a chosen one"
- Gypsy Eyes
She woke me up in the morning
With a soft and gentle touch
And now I realize that I need her too much
I really don't know if my body will move
If I try to walk away
And something in her eyes are begging me to stay
... Begging me to stay ...
- Higher Than The Sky
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've been...
Higher than the sky
Falling in and out of time
- Holding On
Keep on holding on
Keep on holding on
Keep on holding on
Feels like I’m losing energy
In my solitude elegy
We were close once now
You’ve chosen to be enemies
- I Return
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 parted
All I hear is my heart pounding inside
I'm so afraid of what I'll see when I return
- Losing Myself
Dan Swano (Edge Of Sanity,Nightingale)
Losing Myself
Losing time
counting hours
I'll never see myself again
And even though I'm alone
I can't remember what I'm missing
- Misery
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
- Nightfall Overture
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
- Reasons
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
- Remorse and Regret
My heart is in pain
Surrounded by emptiness
How could I do this to my only friend?
The memories of joy vanished without a trace
Wandering aimlessly
Empty inside
- Revival
No longer a shadow, once again I walk the face of the earth.
I'm in his body, I'm free to live,
And I will make sure that he will see no rebirth.
He'll never find the answer, he'll never know the way
I'll never ever forgive him for what he did to me that day.
I don't know how to be in this world, I left so long ago.
Now I'm back in the shape of another,
But that is something that no one ever will know.
- Scarred For Life
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
- Shadowland Serenade
I can't believe that this is happening to me
So many years of being young, wild and free
When I'm asleep I'm living like a refugee
A plague upon my soul for all eternity?
How come I never knew until the night that she had spoken?
Why did she have to tell me 'bout the way we used to be?
- Stalingrad
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
- State Of Shock
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
- Steal The Moon
Now he's here inside her ocean sky.
He's dreaming again, he's released from all his fears.
I'm standing here watching the world through his eyes,
There's no reason to leave since I know no time never dies.
But I can feel the rain upon your cheek
'Cause you don't know that I could steal the moon for you.
You don't know I'd sing an endless croon for you.
- The Dreamreader
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
- The Fields Of Life
Tell me why I stand here again
I cannot seem to make up my mind
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
- The Glory Days
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
(The tears that I cry)
Through the eyes of the betrayer
It might be the last that I taste in this life
- The Journey's End
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
- The Voyage Of Endurance
Their destination: The Kingdom of Ice
A hell that already froze over
The roar of the engine
The smell of the sea
The captain and crew celebrate
They're on their way
Many before them had witnessed the might
- To the End
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
- Wounded Soul
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
