1. CRUSADER

Let it go, give up the starlanes
It's the final frontier
We have come, out of the embers
We have come to conquer

Another chance, a new beginning
No turning back now
Who we are, yet undecided
Time to create now

Set our hearts alight
For the stars we fly
One of us will be the saviour
And our souls will fly
Hope will never die
In the heart of this crusader

We are lost, the unforgiven
Brought our world to ruin
Crucified, still without penance
A universe of martyrs

Day by day, memories fading
Of what used to be
In our dreams it is still living
And we fight for the memory

Set our hearts alight
For the stars we fly
One of us will be the saviour
And our souls will fly
Hope will never die
In the heart of this crusader


2. REQUIEM FOR THE LIGHT

Ten million tons of steel hurled across the sky
Our final sleeper ship, none left to say goodbye
For all our wisdom couldn't save her from the night
Now hear our children sing their requiem for the light

I want to stop the wheels of time
I want it, I need it
The light that gives me life again

Ten thousand years in space, we slept across the dark
Towards a burning star, we sailed a gliding arc
But soon we had to journey back into the night
And hear our children sing their requiem for the light

I want to stop the wheels of time
I want it, I need it
The light that gives me life again

Can you feel her burning love?
Mother of all life, blazing glory from above

A requiem for the light

Far too old and far too young
Behold another fading sun
Gaze with hope into the sky
But know that all our stars will die
The eternal night we must survive

A requiem for the light

I want to stop the wheels of time
I want it, I need it
The light that gives me life again


3. HEAVEN'S GATE

Don't you fear the turning tides
All is ending
On the cosmic strings we ride
Never ending

Once from out of depths of time
We were rising
Once again, time after time
There will be another dawn

Now before the gate we stand
Waiting for the last command
Silver trumpets' call welcomes us home

On a lonely globe in space
All is ending
But I will see this place again
There will be another dawn

Now before the gate we stand
Waiting for the last command
Silver trumpets' call welcomes us home

So before the gate we fall
And the longing is no more
Another journey is over

Welcome home


4. BEYOND THE STARS

There's a voice inside me
A distant memory
I know I've lived before

The elder world has fallen
To an age of wars
The tide has turned again

By the mercy of our sins we live our lives
In a world made of dreams
Open your eyes
Release your astral ties
And you will transcend
Beyond the stars

I can hear the suffering
The hate inside
And it pulls me to the ground

Bleeding hands are trembling
Can you forgive?
Is there courage to believe?

By the mercy of our sins we live our lives
In a world made of dreams
Open your eyes
Release your astral ties
And you will transcend
Beyond the stars


5. PLAINS OF FOREVER

I'm sleeping in darkness
I feel my mind shutting down
A distance you can't fathom
Oceans of time and more

I ran off at random
To save all that we know
So I risked all and I lost all
But I found even more

All alone I hear your voice
Inside my head so strong

In the cold embrace
In the deep of space
Far across the plains of forever
There is no way home
I will die alone
I will slowly fall to forever

My memories in the thousands
Now so little filters through
But you'll follow, this I know
This future waits for you

All alone I hear your voice
Inside my head so strong

In the cold embrace
In the deep of space
Far across the plains of forever
There is no way home
I will die alone
I will slowly fall to forever
And I feel you still
As my body chills
In eternal dreams I will hold you
In a close embrace
In the deep of space
Far across the plains of forever
