Innocence Weakness
A Secret To Reveal
They all live it seems
In perfect harmony
But the truth seems to be concealed
Until the curtain falls
All the hidden thoughts remain a mystery
Everyone has a secret to reveal
I wonder what your worst would be
Everyone has a secret to conceal
What would you see, what would you find
If I entered your mind?
What would I see, what would I find
And if you entered mine?
Dark shadows live in the corners of my mind
Hidden inside dwells, hate of every kind
For all those who dare to cross my pass
Some day will witness my wrath
They all live it seems
In perfect harmony
But the truth seems to be concealed
Until the curtain falls
All the hidden thoughts remain a mystery
Everyone has a secret to reveal
I wonder what your worst would be
Everyone has a secret to conceal
I wish you'd confide yours to me
Everyone has a secret to reveal
I wonder what your worst would be
Everyone has a secret to conceal
Save Us From Ourselves
Start thinking if truth is what you see
Evidence for the light and for the day
The dark of night – just a curtain
A single thought – never to be spoken
Struggling with a creeping cognition
God gave and God takes
Everyone you love and everyone you hate
Every sinner and every saint
An endless quest, tired and distressed
No wish more desired
An endless quest, tired and distressed
No question more answered
Holy war for your redemption
Controlled and commanded
False responsibility
And ancient slavery
SAVE US FROM OURSELVES
10.000 days in the fire
And no one ever saw the truth
An endless quest, tired and distressed
No wish more desired
An endless quest, tired and distressed
No question more answered
The engine of joy and suffering
Nowhere else to run
Holy war for your redemption
Controlled and commanded
False responsibility
And ancient slavery
SAVE US FROM OURSELVES
A Serenade To The Sea
I welcome the beautiful night
I am happy to be all alone
And I welcome the heavenly light
I am happy to be all alone
Oh I want you to be right at my side
But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride
Oh I want you to be right at my side
But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride
I see you drown there in the sea
And watch you die
While lying in the sun
Lying in the sun
Oh how I wish you were here right at my side
Love at first sight, love at first sight
Love at first sight
I welcome the beautiful night
I am happy to be all alone
And I welcome the heavenly light
I am happy to be all alone
Oh I want you to be right at my side
But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride
Oh I want you to be right at my side
But I did not hear your call 'cause of my pride
Among The Demons
I saw you in the corner
A shadow against the wall
Hidden beside the cradle
And nobody saw you crawl
You lingered in the dark
Always by my side
You taught me in my dreams
Protecting me while I sleep
Strengthening myself
Hardening my will
But now that I grew older
You vanished without a trace
Without any trace
Where are you now?
I'm seeking for you to rely on
Where have you gone?
I summon your protection, my demon
Where are you now?
I'm waiting for you all night long
Where have you gone?
There is no other reason to go on
Cornered by gloomy figures
Called upon your assistance
Step out of the dark
Ripping further existence
Your grin was in my face
Your strength was in my bones
Your confidence possessed me
You were like my best friend
You lingered in the dark
Always by my side
You taught me in my dreams
Protecting me while I sleep
Where are you now?
I'm seeking for you to rely on
Where have you gone?
I summon your protection, my demon
Where are you now?
I'm waiting for you all night long
Where have you gone?
There is no other reason to go on
Autumn Infinity
Don’t accuse me of things
I haven’t done at all
Just look who’s talking now
You are the one to blame
Don’t put the saddle on the wrong horse
I will not bear the blame
You cocooned a mesh of lies
It is elucidated now
You will see that in the end
I will come back at you
You will see in the end
Who is paying the dues?
Born in a flicker world of lies and get into it
On a mote of dust
Suspended in a sunbeam
It’s your fault, your fault alone
It’s not mine
It’s your fault, your fault alone
It’s not mine
I am so sick of all your cant
It is all just empty talk
I just want to get rid of you
The prosecution rests
You will see that in the end
I will come back at you
You will see in the end
Who is paying the dues?
Born in a flicker world of lies and get into it
On a mote of dust
Suspended in a sunbeam
It’s your fault, your fault alone
It’s not mine
It’s your fault, your fault alone
It’s not mine
Coma
As the rain falls down
And the kingdom falls asleep
When the bridges are burning
And the kingdom falls asleep
I start to fix the light
I crash the beautiful sky
To punish the weakness inside
And getting stronger
Coma – please pray for mercy
A mass disease
Blood is pumping through your veins
Try to kill the insane
While health is growing
And the bridges are burning
Coma – please pray for mercy
A mass disease
Coma – a parasite
Your last glorious march
Coma – a paradise
Wait till death do us part
Gasping for air, watch you die
See this life come to an end, come to an end
Oh my God
(x2)
Coma – a parasite
Your last glorious march
Coma – a paradise
Wait till death do us part
Blood is pumping through your veins
Try to kill the insane
While health is growing
And the bridges are burning
Coma – please pray for mercy
A mass disease
Coma – a parasite
Your last glorious march
Coma – a paradise
Wait till death do us part
Indignation
She stares into the fire
A fire with no flames
She stares into the fire
A fire with no flames
What you wish to kindle in others
Must burn within yourself
What you wish to kindle in others
Must burn within yourself
A mass of icy crystals
She sees in front of her
No warmth to hold on to
Just cold and frost remain
What you wish to kindle in others
Must burn within yourself
What you wish to kindle in others
Must burn within yourself
But then she goes to the empty riverside
Where she wants to leave everything behind
Her inner strength is lost
Vanished into thin air
Her hand stretched out
Shivering with cold
What you wish to kindle in others
Must burn within yourself
What you wish to kindle in others
Must burn within yourself
But then she goes to the empty riverside
Where she wants to leave everything behind
But then she goes to the empty riverside
Where she wants to leave everything behind
Existence
She has lost her grace
A grace that seemed so dear
She has trailed away
Desperately
She has lost her faith
A faith that seemed sincere
She has lost ground
Desperately
She has lost her grace
Lost ground and hope and faith
Mournful melodies take her far, far away
(x2)
She has lost her hope
A hope that disappeared
She has trailed away
Desperately
She has lost her peace
This peace allayed her fears
She has lost ground
Desperately
She has lost her grace
Lost ground and hope and faith
Mournful melodies take her far, far away
(x2)
And all that remains are mournful melodies
Saddening you
And all that remains are melancholic sounds
Making you forlorn
She has lost her grace
Lost ground and hope and faith
Mournful melodies take her far, far away
(x2)
Silhouette
The crimson sea
Reflects my silhouette
Embracing all the tears I’ve ever shed
All the tears I’ve shed
The shallow ground
Surrounds my feet
I can’t find no sleep
The whitecaps look like crowns
Of long forgotten kings
May they rest in peace
The breezes of the night wind
Are whispering your name
May you rest in peace
Thus you prowl
In the realm of the dead
Your fading memory
Reflected in my head
(x2)
As I wander
Close beside the lake
At last I am wide awake
The whitecaps look like crowns
Of long forgotten kings
May they rest in peace
The breezes of the night wind
Are whispering your name
May you rest in peace
Thus you prowl
In the realm of the dead
Your fading memory
Reflected in my head
(x2)
