1. ROSE IN THE DARK

Terrorized
In the dark, a light of reason
Brutal minds, beyond the walls of thought
We Stand and fight.

A temple of minds with a message of freedom from tyranny

Blood sacrifice
Feed your machine one more death tonight
Blood sacrifice
Next in the end will be yours

Lost inside the lies, the truth will not survive, I watch My life it fades to black.

Out of time
Caught and tortured by your demons
Stand in line...your final judgement day
Not far behind

You’ll take my life but that day will become an eternity

Blood sacrifice
Feed your machine my last breath tonight
Blood sacrifice
Next in the end will be yours...

Far from home
Facing this night alone
I’ll die for truth and right
But my words will live, like a rose in the dark
Like a rose in the dark

Final night
Here you come again to rape me
Evil minds, beyond the walls of thought
We stand and fight.

You look at me to just tremble and fall, but I’ve got some News for you

Blood sacrifice
Feed your machine my last breath tonight
Blood sacrifice
Next in the end will be yours

Lost inside the lies, the truth will not survive, I watch My life it fades to black.

Just like a rose...lost in the dark...watching my life Fade to black.
Just like a rose...lost in the dark...watching my life Fade to black
Fade to black.


2. ARRIVAL

In the fear of night
Wake up and dream
You are the target of a pulsing ion beam
No time to sweat
They threw the switch
Your muscles frozen in a tetanizing grip

From your muffled cage
A figure leans
Dead eyes upon you
Black and cold as a machine

Arrival...
Walls are bleeding red light
Bare force controls the night
Desperation fills your mind
Angel of a new kind.

Is there anyone there?
Your body now a prison of the light
And paralyzed you stare
A victim of the watchers in the sky

In the fear of night
Wake up and scream
You are the victim of all that is unseen
No time to sweat
They threw the switch
Your muscles frozen in a tetanizing grip

Arrival
Walls are bleeding red light
Bare force controls the night
Desperation fills your mind
Angel of a new kind


3. TOUCHING GOD

Lord help me now
Sqeezing the blood from my eyes

The ledge of snow somehow just let go
Will my men reach me in time

Death before me
Now I am sorry
For living my life in killing and hate

Am I saved?
One step from the grave
Hear me calling, and I’m touching god

(Other man)

Lord help me now
The enemy close to my blade
An inch from the knife yet he lays just as I
Trapped and alone in his pain..

Death before me
Now I am sorry
For living my life in killing and hate,
Am I saved?
One step from the grave
Hear me calling, and I’m touching god

In our pride... and our rage
Jaws of ice... now this fate
War and blood for this land we have waged.
Jaws of ice... now this fate.
Two dark lords come at last face to face..

Lord help us now
The hours have wasted our pride
Forgive us this night as we pray for our lives
Humbled together we cry

Death before me
Now I am sorry
For living our lives in killing and hate
But we’re saved! one step from the grave, here them Coming...

From tonight, a new age
Let the bonds of our truce show the way
And the lives...that we’ll save.
Two dark lords have made peace on this day.

20 strong...cloaked in grey. closing fast to the brink Where they lay.
Hand of god... twist of fate... wolves closing in


4. RISE

Come out of the shadows
Into the light
Where you’re not expected
To put up a fight

Your desires... a victim of fatal attack
You’re locked inside a box of lies

Rise.... rise
Rise and take your place
Rise.... rise
Rise and take your place

Resurrection

The seduction of mankind
Has taken a bite
An left you with choices
To run or to fight

Your selfish life
Your losses will never come back
Sucked to the bottom
I’m calling the fallen to rise

Rise.... rise
Rise and take your place

Rise.... rise
Rise and take your place

Resurrection

Absolve me
I’ll start new
I hear the surface calling
Just one chance
And I’ll prove
From hell and back I’m crawling

Born to rise.. born to rise... rise

Come out of the shadows
Into the light
Where you’re not expected
To put up a fight

Your desires, a victim of fatal attack
It’s not the end if you’ll just rise...

Rise.... rise
Rise and take your place
Rise.... rise
Rise and take your place


5. DOWN OF THE SUN

Candles and roses, I wear my white dress
A picture of beauty, oh the tears that they’ll shed for me

Clutching my poison
On the edge of release
The blessing of stillness for eternity
For eternity

If I could hang on
How long would it take
For a sun to rise, and devour darkness and pain

I carry on
From night to day
And fight my way through
The down of the

Tireless motion of infinite sorrows
My mind and my heart full of dread for tomorrows

Deep in my soul
A voice cries to fight
To hang on to life

I carry on
From night to day
And fight my way through
I have to believe, I have to have faith
And fight my way through
The down of the sun... the down of the sun... the down of The sun

Ten thousand scars no ending in site
I’ll wear them like armor through absence of light
Taken for dead, I’m ready to fight
So bring it on, cause this is my life
I’ll carry on
From night to day
And fight my way through
I have to believe, I have to have faith
And fight my way through

Have to believe...and I’ll carry on

I have to believe, have to have faith
And I’ll make it though

The down of the sun... the down of the sun... down of the Sun
This is my life


6. IN THIS WORLD

Telling the children our lies
The order must be kept in line
The privileged are born with their gold
By rank and by file bought and sold

The world that we live in
Is not the same
As the world that we’re given
Running our lives, on and on
Machinery drives us from dusk to dawn, oh oh
In this world

The farther we fall to our knees
The more that you’re losing your hold on me
Scorching the earth with your crown
Careful or you will come tumbling down

The world that we live in
Is not the same
As the world that we’re given
Running our lives, on and on
Machinery drives us from dusk to dawn, oh oh
In this world

And all the lies
Can’t you believe that your life’s worth what mine’s worth?
We’re out of time
Why can’t you see that you need me
Together we live or together we die

Telling the children our lies
Bury your head and pretend your blind
The difference between us is faith
I know we can change

The world that we live in
Is not the same
As the world that we’re given
Running our lives, on and on
Machinery drives us from dusk to dawn, oh oh
In this world

In this world


7. GENERATION NEXT

Victimized and bleeding
A sterilized utopia
This is what we’re leaving
It’s up to you to stand or fall

Fools say you’re much to young
But you are what’s to come

Generation next
Generation

The poison air we’re breathing
A toxic waste of apathy
A homicidal feeling
Of self destruction and disease

Fools say you’re on your own
But you can change what’s done

Generation next
Generation next

Exit regime, rip the titans of war from their place
An army that sleeps, you’ll arise and awaken someday

You’ve got the power to
Seize take control
Of a world that’s lost it’s way

Violence receding
A growing peace at last restored
Miraculous and healing
The death of evil, hate and war

Fools they say it can’t be done
Then what will we become?

Generation next
Generation next


8. NEVERMORE

Find blue sky
Fly as far and high as you can go
The light is almost faded
And we must say good-night

Tonight, no cage will hold you in
No wish or dream denied, your air
The pain the the cold you’ll never feel
In light where you’ll always be free

Faced with the lies - I tell myself
Cut open wide and screaming, take my life to dark eternal Realms
Where we can be forevermore

Watching you die
Falling though time a broken chain
Replays with all my love for you
It keeps you alive, my sweet nevermore

Don’t you cry
You were born with angel’s wings to fly
Beyond the ordinary world
So we must say good-bye

Tonight, no cage will hold you in
No wish or dream denied, your air
The pain the the cold you’ll never feel
In light where you’ll always be free

Faced with the lies I tell myself
Cut open wide and screaming, take my life to dark eternal Realms
Where we can be forevermore

Wanting to die
What have I done
Falling through time a broken chain
Replays with all my love for you
It keeps you alive my sweet nevermore

To live and breath, right here by my side
The sins of my pride washed away
In dreams, so real,
Your heart still beats with mine, forever immortal in time

Nevermore nevermore nevermore nevermore

Faced with the lies
Cut open wide and screaming
Take my life to dark eternal realms
Where we can be forevermore
Watching you die
Falling though time a broken chain
Replays with all my love for you
It keeps you alive, my sweet nevermore


9. VOICE IN THE SILENCE

Humble at your temples’ gate
Silver skies holding back tears of rain
With iron hears we curse what fate has taken

A voice that was silenced
Voice that was silenced

I listen for a message sent
Not a sound, just echoes of love and pain
I’m too late to know you
But I still listen for

A voice in the silence
Voice in the silence

Under a dark night
I feel you breathing
Underneath the veil
It’s coming closer
Am I just dreaming
Or do legends

Never die
Never die

Can you hear me now?

Humble at your temple’s gate
A faded smile lingers upon my face
You see at last “the voice” and I have spoken

To one and all
I hear your calls
And though we’re far
We’re never out of reach

Just listen,
Can you hear it?

A voice in the silence
Voice in the silence


10. THE CHAIN

Under a shadow
Criers weep, “bring my freedom”
Pour forth like water
Blood runs in crimson fever

Hail to the new lord
Tyrants and gods to feed us
Choking on reason
Essence of Life... defeated

Losing control
All that remains
Falling together in the chain
This will go on
The circle’s never ending
Falling forever, in the chain

Pride and redemption
Calling new arms to treason
Balance of power
Turns once again
With the season

Losing control
All that remains
Falling together in the chain
This will go on
The circle’s never ending
Falling forever in the chain

Under a shadow
Criers weep “bring my freedom”
Pour forth like water
Oceans of life... extinguished

Losing control
All that remains
Falling together in the chain
This will go on
The circle’s never ending
Falling forever in the chain

Falling forever. falling together
Forever and ever
I’ll meet you there in the chain
