The Storm 03:46
Lost control of myself It was just too much to take Like poison it burns The energy that dwells within I can't take this anymore The shadow that's lurking inside Releasing this beast Is the only way survive Free of it all Nothing can bring me down Nothing to lose There's no calm before the storm Get taste of this hate You better run or hide Nothing to lose There's no calm before the storm There's no silver linings No rays of light shining through When the last drop falls There is no turning back Free of it all Nothing can bring me down Nothing to lose There's no calm before the storm Get taste of this hate You better run or hide Nothing to lose There's no calm before the storm Like a gathering of clouds this anger grows in me Soon the rain is pouring down soaking all in its path Free of it all Nothing can bring me down Nothing to lose There's no calm before the storm Get taste of this hate You better run or hide Nothing to lose There's no calm before the storm

Down from his throne stares the watcher Seer of life and death The great beholder glaring at us Never misses a single soul Wherever we go There's no hope The eye of the beholder Nothing to hide, nothing to be afraid of The eye of the beholder All is clear, don't be ashamed to cry The things you do are no longer hidden As he sees them all The more you struggle the harder he'll stare Until you'll stop fighting Wherever we go There's no hope The eye of the beholder Nothing to hide, nothing to be afraid of The eye of the beholder All is clear, don't be ashamed to cry The eye of the beholder Nothing to hide, nothing to be afraid of The eye of the beholder All is clear, don't be ashamed to cry The eye of the beholder Nothing to hide, nothing to be afraid of The eye of the beholder Don't be ashamed to cry

Awaken 03:40
Can you hear the screams? The sound of nightmares See one's shattered dreams In a million pieces I lived in my own fantasy Brought back by the reality Thought I could rule the world As the walls are broken down Search for a sacred place Is the only way to relieve my pain Awaken by the truth That the sand of time are running low Please end this nightmare And guide me to my paradise Surrendered to the fact That I was the fool Cherished by myself In a circle of words cruel I lived in my own fantasy Brought back by the reality Thought I could rule the world As the walls are broken down Search for a sacred place Is the only way to relieve my pain Awaken by the truth That the sand of time are running low Please end this nightmare And guide me to my paradise

Can't see, can't feel All I hear is your voice Echoing somewhere far Time is blurred No sign of life What went wrong? How did I end here? Where the hell am I? The past is gone and all I know Is that I miss you so I wander in this dark place There's no way out No map or guidance I'm heading towards the light No fear, no pain All I have left is the will To reach home, to be with you Lost in this smoke No directions or signs to lead me home Will this be my final journey? No strength to carry on I wander in this dark place There's no way out No map or guidance I'm heading towards the light No fear, no pain All I have left is the will To reach home, to be with you All I've done in life Will haunt me forever Please let me go I'm never coming back I wander in this dark place No map or guidance Head towards the light I wander in this dark place There's no way out No map or guidance I'm heading towards the light No fear, no pain All I have left is the will To reach home, to be with you

The Herald 03:23
Bearer of the curse Seek the souls from this world For what has now gone hollow Is never truly dead To find the fires far Seek the misery and hate Go and reach for the throne To find the great souls That burn like a fallen star Light the fires far Bearer of the curse Seek the king of this world Until frail hope shatters For you I am here To find the fires far Seek the misery and hate Go and reach for the throne To find the great souls That burn like a fallen star Light the fires far Are you the next monarch? Or merely a pawn of fate? To find the fires far Seek the misery and hate Go and reach for the throne To find the great souls That burn like a fallen star Light the fires far

You are a portrait of a ghost Once so full of life Now wandering Towards the unknown The struggles make you see The ones that won't ever flee You must reach your goal And never let go The freedom awaits Sacrifices are made You know what it takes Let go of your shame Your're a reflection of the ones Who held their head down The more you look away The more it hurts to say The struggles make you feel The life you had was never real You must reach your goal And never let go The freedom awaits Sacrifices are made You know what it takes Let go of your shame

The need for protection At the cost of affection Is a trade made too often The silence can lure you And make it sure too The lies will never go away Broken promises And fear of loss Are forcing me to Enter the silence As you take it away, day by day Losing the trust in you As you play your game and seal my fate Losing the trust in you It's different to listen When something is missing But still try to understand These tales go so deep That you don't know what's beneath It's hard to keep your eyes closed Broken promises And fear of loss Are forcing me to Enter the silence The lack of understanding Shaking up the floor Once again I Enter the silence My mistakes are rising the stakes Now it's time to see who fakes and what breaks As you take it away, day by day Losing the trust in you As you play your game and seal my fate Losing the trust in you

The Spark 04:32
Hold, hold on tight Don't like in the illusion Keep your aim true When you try to break out through the wrath Inside your heart don't fall apart Let go with the flow Feel the spark deep within your soul Get ready to lose control Open your mind, break free Never compromise, never give up Can you feel like you're alive Fight for whatever you want Don't live with the expectations Keep your head up high Go and break the rules and show those fools Who pushed you down what you are now You fly above 'em all Feel the spark deep within your soul Get ready to lose control Open your mind, break free Never compromise, never give up Can you feel like you're alive

I wrote a story once Billion years before the end of the world It tells about you maybe And of my blood-oiled heart I found a shrouded key To unlock the secrets, to set them free Mysteries of life and being Conspiracies and fraud You don't die of a broken heart You only wish you could run Run away from the feeling From the matter you should Govern the clock You don't die in a promised land You have to let go off it all Run away from the selfish From the sickening and fear Go and disappear! Now I will finish all Many years before a distant extinction It will consume us maybe And stop my blood-oiled heart I shall embrace entropy To unlock my spirit, to set it free Accepting this only life Its trickery and doubt You don't die of a broken heart You only wish you could run Run away from the feeling From the matter you should Govern the clock You don't die in a promised land You have to let go off it all Run away from the selfish From the sickening and fear Go and disappear! Stop the clockwork heart!

The road I've walk for so long and so alone Seen it all but still having nothing I would drown in a river of tears just to feel again I bid farewell but memories won't fade away Burning down the bridges Leaving everything behind Making sure that no one will follow All those tears I've cried were in vain This is the time to rise And finally see the light This is the end of the line Hoping to find some peace of mind one so hollow There is nothing to lose, nothing to see No one to tell me what to do with my life Burning down the bridges Leaving everything behind Making sure that no one will follow All those tears I've cried were in vain This is the time to rise And finally see the light The fainting glow behind me Warms my heart like it's on fire The smoke of memories burning Burning down the bridges Leaving everything behind Making sure that no one will follow All those tears I've cried were in vain This is the time to rise And finally see the light
