Fading within - like a fire in the ocean
Time’s standing still, behind me all is lost
Turning away from, the Hell I’ve known
A chapter of madness out of control
To the unknown
Trying to find a home
In disbelief of what I seek to reveal
to the Power in the downfall
We must conceal the pain to carry on
Fading within cause we’re all undone
Walking in shadows beneath the sun
To the unknown
Trying to find a home
In disbelief
Of what I seek
Burning deep within
Countless waves of sin
Spark to light the flame
Time to end the game
To the unknown
Trying to find a home
In disbelief
Of what we seek
Atrocity
Taking its toll on me
Spontaneously
A blaze at sea
Loving
Making
Giving
Taking
Fading
Hating
Gaining
Rising
Fading: as the water rises
Hating: all the loss we’ve suffered
Gaining: as the flames they grow up higher
Rising: to shine before the fall

They’re the blinded
The narrow-minded
They all feast what they’re served
Slurping, hating, justice raping
Benighted they believe
Forge the mask to another story
Burning bridges, serpent skin
Wears the mask of one thousand victims
Parallel reality
Into the fire
They follow the liar
Mislead by bewitchery
No one’s asking, there’s no unmasking
Blindly they fall to their knees
Forge the mask to another story
Burning bridges, serpent skin
Wears the lies of one thousand victims
Parallel reality
Rage
Obsession
Fury
Madness
Will we rise again?
Forge the mask to another story
Burning bridges, serpent skin
Wears the lies of one thousand victims
Parallel reality
Parallel reality!
Parallel reality!

Hatred,
builds your prison
My decision alone
lights the rage in your heart
Time will follow - feel so hollow
lurking madness - haunts my soul
Take my hand,
guide me through the night
escape the soul
show me the light
in this world of shadows
will I find my strength to let it go
Time,
heals your vision
hard collisions to come
shades the light in your eyes
Time will follow - feels so hollow
chasing darkness - leads to madness
Take my hand,
guide me through the night
escape the soul
show me the light
in this world of shadows
will I find my strength to let it go
... just let go!!!
Take my hand to the Shadowland
Free your soul and lose control
Take my hand to the Shadowland
Free your soul and lose control
Take my hand to the Shadowland
Free your soul and lose control
Stop, halt, your fucking fire!
All your blame is killing me
How could I know, I was blinded
Hate the day when you stepped into my soul ...
So, what the hell do you want from me now?
Take my hand,
Guide me through the night
escape the soul
show me the light
in this world of shadows
will I find my strength to let it go
Just let go!

Fool's Paradise

Stabbed my back
took me down
Left me here,
here to bleed out
Ripped my heart out
trapped in fear
One last time
you will…
Bridge:
Hear me cry
No more Lies
My own mind
it makes me blind
Chorus:
Fools’ Kingdom forever
where righteous dwell together
a realm of broken tragedy
‘cause we are
kings of words untold
Kingdom,
calling me
Lived the dream
time to wake up
Vanity
is my Sin
One last time
you will …
Hear me cry
no more lies
my own mind
still makes me blind
Fools’ Kingdom forever
where righteous dwell together
a realm of the broken
we’re kings of words untold
we awaken
together, here we stand
to end a past that’s aching
All the voices
beckoned me:
“End will come
I will show you…
Finalize!
Make the deal”
One last time…
time to enter:
Fools’ Kingdom forever
where righteous dwell together
a realm of the broken
we’re kings of words untold
we awaken
together, here we stand
to end the past of lies!

The Throne

We’re two hearts apart
so close, yet so far…
I forgive you,
I wanted you to know
I felt so alone
the day you left your throne
I’m crying in vain,
know you won’t come again
I’m missing you
you fought so well
for so long but in the end you lost it all
We were counting every minute
we never had the chance to say goodbye (say goodbye)
pushing boundaries to the limit
losing you is hard to justify
You live and you die
I scream at the sky
Asking why…
We’re losing control
thought we we’re growing old
You missed the cue…
Only time will tell for how long
the world intends to keep
us all
We were counting every minute
We never had the chance to say goodbye (say goodbye)
pushing boundaries to the limit
losing you is hard to justify
You live and you die
I scream at the sky
Asking why…
Where are you now?
So much left to say…
Now I’m alone
My time to take The Throne
We were counting every minute
we never had the chance to say goodbye (say goodbye)
pushing boundaries to the limit
Losing you is hard to justify
You live and you die
I scream at the sky
asking why…

My kingdom, my time
to take things back in control
Enslave you, migrate to
this place called home
Uuuuh, I cannot be undone
Proposal declined
Join my charade
Forgive me now
for trusting in you
Straight out of hell
brought down the hell upon you
Please hate me now
forsake me and fly
Trust time will tell…
tell if you bring one more lie
Now ...
Let me see,
you wear that mask of deceit
you try hard, but I break apart
the lies you feed
Uuuuh, I cannot be undone
Cry, you´ll never see the sun
Forgive me
for trusting in you
Straight out of hell
brought down the hell upon you
Please hate me
forsake me and fly
Trust time will tell
tell, if you bring one more lie
I hear the bell
Summon your demonic coming
Oh, time will tell
All your lies upon me
Come out and play
this time I´ll take your pride
away
hear your plead
hear you cry
is all I need
My kingdom, my time
to take things back in control
Proposal, declined
Join my charade
Forgive me now
for trusting in you
Straight out of hell
brought down the hell upon you
Please hate me
forsake me and fly
trust time will tell
tell, if you bring one more lie…
Lies!
Come out and play…
Lies!
Come out and play…
Lies!
Come out and play…
Lies!
Come out and play…
Lies!
Come out and play…

Terms of Endearment
05:12

I feel your presence like a silence out of tune
The shadows’ flickering in cold light of the moon
Inside this prison you have locked my soul away
Down to the bone I feel so drained and wasted
Let me go, set me free, and leave this place
You take your toll on me to live another day
Someday I’ll break the chains and will be free again
But am I dreaming now?
I call your name
one final time (hear me calling you)
Wasting my tears for love
It leads us to our end
Gone forevermore!
I close my eyes and turn my back the other way
I smell your perfume mixed with odors of decay
Since you appeared my hate is growing every day
I’ll end this misery…
You think you’re safe from me but you don’t have a clue
Open your hell and I will raise my blade!
There is no end to how my feelings are so true
So guess who’s bleeding now?
I call your name
one final time (hear me calling you)
Wasting my tears for love
It leads us to our end
Gone forevermore!
Hatred
Screaming
Justice
Closure
My final struggle to define just who I am
The destination lies there right before my eyes
There is no meaning to go down that road again
Hear me scream…
I call your name
one final time (hear me calling you)
Wasting my tears for love
It leads us to our end
