Letters from the Edge
1. Crossing the Frozen River
2. Forbidden Doors
A quarter century of lies
It's no wonder that anger and hatred rise
All your words untrue
What I believed, it wasn't you
In this chaos of spiritual death
There is a liar, a fool and a suspect
And if there is anything I regret
It is the very day we first met
We rode around the city at night
There was a fool and there were two liars
I believed in dignity and honour
But for some it means nothing
Thus turning lives into horror
Together we watched the stars
A fool, an innocent child and two liars
And I thought all the shooting stars we saw
Were meant to bring bright future and hope
In this chaos of spiritual death
I felt as if it was my final breath
It turned me into someone I didn't know
You found the key to open a forbidden door in my soul
There is a riot in my heart
This devilish betrayal tears my soul apart
I don't believe in forgiveness and grace
You don't seem so evil with my fist in your fucking face
Why can't we just turn back time
Asked the fool
Still believing in certain rules
I have lost hope and faith
Can't overcome this raging hate
The forest turned into desert
and silence is replaced by noise
3. Seven Springs
All the scars that lie inside
Shall give strength to your will
And the demons lurking in your soul
They turn to stone when the greatest battle is won
Show me your treasure tonight
Let me guard the flame that burns inside
Give me the key, so you won't get lost
There's always a door you haven't opened yet
When you distance yourself from the disadvantages of mankind
You become closer to the truth
And if you think you've wasted all your tears
I'll show what remained untouched after all these years
Show me your treasure tonight
Let me guard the flame that burns inside
Give me the key, so you won't get lost
There's always a door you haven't opened yet
Weightless yet paralyzed
Desperate when dark descends
From our past our emotions are in chains
Trees are bending but their roots still remain
Show me your treasure tonight
Let me guard the flame that burns inside
Give me the key, so you won't get lost
There's always a door you haven't opened yet
4. A Mirror in the Forest
Come and stand in front of me
I want to tell what I've been through
I want you to hear my pain and misery
and cry with me
I want to punch your face
And catch you when you fall
I want to get rid of the thoughts
that hurt inside us all
I want to grab your neck
I want to shout in your face
I want to spit
This life I want to quit
To get rid of the thoughts
To get rid of you
To get rid of me
I'm here to show you all
Don't you dare to hide now
This ride will hurt a lot more than you think
A lifetime of sorrow in me
And an eternally haunting past, immeasurable cruelty
The emerging hopeless rays of daylight
Cut through the freezing cold outside
Recognition of the defeated past
I hate you, I wish you'd be dead
Everything I have lost and I daydream your death
Everything I wanted and everything I had, you stole it
And if you changed even the whole past
You broke me, I see all falling apart
You just let everything happen
And you made me hate myself
5. Abandoned Peaks
On this long road to the west
On the highway to demise
I could not judge if time stopped or it still flies
It was two minutes to midnight
the weather was cold and the moon shone bright
I couldn't sleep to the sinister sound of [death?]
Even though I tried
Only when you fall a thousand metres
You'll understand the way I felt
And after that you left me in my own fucking hell
Followed by the loneliest Christmas
That I spent walking around the woods
Till night fell
I found a pinetree on the top
Someone decorated it
As if it was for the last and loneliest souls
6. Haven
Just woke up from a dream
Then I realized I'm in my haven
I faced the enemy within
I keep on looking for all that was taken
When night falls and fear fills the air
There is a new dawn somewhere
With all its hopes your dream moves on
A new life is on the horizon
These little lies are like
Pages torn from the book of life
It's so hard to keep it together
But I will give a try
When night falls and fear fills the air
There is a new dawn somewhere
With all its hopes your dreams moves on
A new life is on the horizon
Though things will never be the same
A million times i looked for the ones to blame
For so long I lived among liars and thieves
Broken and crushed I turn to the ones i miss
7. The Main Divide
This tunnel I'm in is way too dark
Torches flicker with desperate light
When the sun sets and cold winds crawl in
Every single night is but a fright
Just show me what you brought
Is it the same scar we already know
I feel the temptation to take revenge tonight
Always forgetting two wrongs don't make a right
This could be mine and this could be yours
It comes slowly and then suddenly goes
Always disappears like a ghost
This kind of magic is too dangerous
Once I followed you and you looked scared
Then I saw you in my dream and offered you all I had
But we cannot hear each other anymore
As I lie in rotten leaves in front of your door
This could be mine or this could be yours
It comes slowly and then suddenly flows?
Behind all doors there dwells a ghost
Every single day I'm gonna break the oath
this tunnel I'm in is way too dark
Torches flicker with desperate light
When the sun sets and cold winds crawl in
Every night is but a fright
The howling injustice and rising hatred
Go hand in hand
This kind of unity is too fragile
From this height it's easy to fall
Insanity, depravity, absurdity
As I break into pieces in the gravity of you
This could be mine and this could be yours
It comes slowly and then suddenly goes
Always disappears like a ghost
This kind of magic is too dangerous
This could be mine or this could be yours
It comes slowly and then suddenly flows
Behind all doors there dwells a ghost
Every single day I'm gonna break the oath
8. Leaving Forever Land
First I was scared
Then all the hatred I gained
I unleashed but then again
Look what you became
Look what we all became
Was it worth the tears,
the scars that still bleeds
Is it really what you have foreseen
Look inside
While I look around
The world is on fire
And all the advises
That got me through these times
Spoken by silent lips
Unheard sometimes
When I forgot to believe and to trust
Was it worth the tears,
the scars that still bleeds
Is it really what you have foreseen
It's a pity we live forever
For it will hurt for a million years
I beg for another ride, daring all my fears
Here I am now
Bare and naked
Watch me suffer as I burn
My bed is a cradle for all the nightmares
That haunt within
They kill me each night they return
Who do you think you can fool
The deepest betrayed breaks all the rules
You're hiding in the forest
When I'm under the fullmoon in the desert
Somewhere in the empire of frost
A coward lurks
The hounds of hell
Circling around me
They gather in the gloom
Barking at the moon
They don't hide
They're inside
Insane and blind
My flesh they bite
Was it worth the tears
the scars that still bleeds
Is it really what you have foreseen
It's a pity we live forever
For it will hurt for a million years
I beg for another ride, daring all my fears
9. At the Banks of Lethe
10. Shroud
I've lost so much in this game
No one wins here, the rules are the same
But what else did you expect
When you crushed all without respect?
I've tried everything to forget
Some falling, others regret
And when you crawl and when you pray
I still think of you a million times a year
Whoever lifts the veil
That veils all horrors
Will go aboard on the route
That sails the ocean of sorrows
You went up north
I travelled to the south
I sat on a cliff at the coast
The ocean seemed a huge bed of tears
And I still thought of you,
just like during all these years
And the bluest sky was but a shroud
These cool winds keep me on the ground
They remind me what I've been through
And the sound of these winds
Is the sound of you
Your world seemed so far
Below the southern cross
How I wished my soul was free
But it's still engulfed in frost
You can run away from the past
And deny all that is true
But the way you act now
I can't believe it's you
What you start
I fail to end
What I was
No one cares
Some will rise
When others fall
We can't hide
What we become
