1. HUNTED
They set the dogs on me
And picked up on my scent
A hunted animal
Hiding in the shadows
The pack is coming near
I hear them everywhere
But I'm staying on the run
Never put my hands up
Somewhere
I know
I will be safe again
Restless, exhausted, nearly unconscious
I run as fast as I can
And I'll never surrender
To my own demon
That hunts me in my head
Trapped at the forest glade
I see their evil grins
Staring into my eyes
Encircled at the dead end
But there's a final chance
Moving up to the edge
I catch a final breath
And fall into the abyss
Somewhere
I know
I will be safe again
Restless, exhausted, nearly unconscious
I run as fast as I can
And I'll never surrender
To my own demon
That hunts me in my head
Running and bounding
Heartbeat is pounding
I don't know where I should go
And ill never surrender
To my own demon
That hunts me in my head
Why, why are you hunting me?
You're just an illusion in my head
Leave, don't you ever come back!
I'm the only master of myself
Somewhere
I know
I will be safe again
Restless, exhausted, nearly unconscious
I run as fast as I can
And I'll never surrender
To my own demon
That hunts me in my head
Running and bounding
Heartbeat is pounding
I don't know where I should go
And ill never surrender
To my own demon
That hunts me
2. TIME
Once you where young
The future far away
Million miles to go
Not holding back
Each breath will get you closer to the end
Sign of the times
Is painted on your skin
The paper's getting
Full of patterns
A token of your present road to life
Follow your heart
No time to waste
Tomorrow's passing you by
Why do you not start to run
You missed the starting gun
It's not too late
You can't escape
Escape the hands of time
You're caught in the past
Remember it won't last
So hurry up
You can't escape
Escape the hands of time
Living in the memories
And yesterday's you'll find
With shining hours waiting for you
Wasting there
Forever out of sight
Looking back when you were young
Rewinding every year
Time will always
Be the hunter
Take a chance
Before you disappear
Follow your heart
No time to waste
Tomorrow's passing you by
Why do you not start to run
You missed the starting gun
It's not too late
You can't escape
Escape the hands of time
You're caught in the past
Remember it won't last
So hurry up
You can't escape
Escape the hands of time
Time is not on your side
You'll never get away
Do not waste your time
Why do you not start to run
You missed the starting gun
It's not too late
You can't escape
Escape the hands of time
You're caught in the past
Remember it won't last
So hurry up
You can't escape
Escape the hands of time
3. WHAT ABOUT ME
Living, dying
Just a fraction of a second
Loving, hating
Tell me, who can decide it
Saviour, destroyer
Can anyone even be trusted
Freedom fighter
There is never black and white
Looking in the mirror
I see a stranger
There is still a child
What about me, tell me what about me
What about me, tell me what about me
Step inside my life's a nightmare
But I'm still okay
What about me, tell me what about me
What about me, tell me what about me
(Tamam, tamam)
Is there something left for me
Prophet, liar
Leave me hanging in the balance
Mother, father
Lost them in the fight
Crying, laughing
There's no time for an emotion
Living, dying
So tired of it all
Looking in the mirror
I see a stranger
There is still a child
What about me, tell me what about me
What about me, tell me what about me
Step inside my life's a nightmare
But I'm still okay
What about me, tell me what about me
What about me, tell me what about me
(Tamam, tamam)
Is there something left for me
What about me...
They're saying that it's in the name of god
That he is great and he will save us all
He'll lead us to the promised land
Where I will be a child again
But that is not what I'm looking for
When each of us has to die before
All are gone, all I ever knew
Is this the god you 're praying to
If you're a god, then listed to me
All I want is to live and to be free
Stop this madness we're going through
Then I will start to believe in you
If you love me, like they say
And almighty, like they praise
Then wake me up from this bad dream
I cry for help, please hear me scream
What about me
What about me
What about me, tell me what about me
What about me, tell me what about me
Step inside my life's a nightmare
But I'm still okay
What about me...
4. HOME
Worn out, but restless
I lie and wait for sleep
Thr lights are out, but
I still can hear the crowd
Always surrounded
By faces i don't know
I'm feeling lonely
Miles away from you
Sometimes I wonder
Is this the way I want it to be
Sometimes I wonder
Miles away from home
I'm coming back to you
Homeward
Back to where I belong to
Homeward
I'm coming back to you
Another place now
I wanted it so bad
But something's missing
I do not feel complete
One more time now
The curtain starts to rise
I hear them cheering
And I wish you could be here
Sometimes I wonder
Is this the way I want it to be
Sometimes I wonder
Miles away from home
I'm coming back to you
Homeward
Back to where I belong to
Homeward
I'm coming home to you
Homeward
To the place where I belong to
Homeward
I'm coming back to you again
Homeward
Back to where I belong to
Homeward
I'm coming home to you
Homeward
To the place where I belong to
Homeward
I'm coming back to you again
5. BRAVE NEW WORLD
I promise you that we will rule the wolrd
The land of milk and honey at your feet
I will light the way for us, my friend
This world will never be the same again
I know what's behind your mask
Lies and deception is all that remains from you
Misusing their dreams and sorrows
Join me into the brave new world
I'm gonna make you feel alright again
Exile the fear and pain from your heart
So don't fight it, it's no use my friend
This world will never be the same again
Lies and deception is all that remains from you
Misusing their dreams and sorrows
Join me into the brave new world
Liar, follow me into the brave new world
Liar, follow me into the brave new world
Take my hand, come with me
Take my hand, come with me
Follow me into the brave new world
Follow me into the brave new world
Follow me into the brave new world
Brave new world
Lies and deception is all that remains from you
Misusing their dreams and sorrows
Join me into the brave new world
To the brave new world
Liar
Follow me into the brave new world
Liar
6. CAN'T BREAK ME DOWN
You can't take away
What I, I'm feeling
I do love this life
And no one else can change this
You can't make me scared
Your hate will not defeat me
And once you are gone
No one will think of you
Can't break me down
Can't break me down
Can't break me down
I don't know your name
The one that walks among us
Already been forgotton
When you have struck again
Blow up, up yourself
Tell me, where's your freedom
Rethink, don't let go
There's something left for you
You can't break me down
You'll never break me down
Take this away
You can't break me down
You'll never break me down
Take this away
Can't break me down
Can't break me down
Can't break me down
Life has much to give
But you don't understand
Your view is obscured
By all your hate and anger
I won't run away
Nor will I try to fight you
I will live my life
You cannot take it away
You can't break me down
You'll never break me down
Take this away
You can't break me down...
You're giving it all away
And never will you find your way
And putting you in chains
You can't break me down
You'll never break me down
Take this away
You can't break me down...
You can't break me down
You'll never break me down
Take this away
You'll never take this away from me
You can't break me down
You'll never break me down
Take this away
You'll never take this away from me
Can't break me down
Can't break me down
Can't break me down
7. RESURRECTED
All my life I dreamed in black
Surrounded only by emptiness
The kiss of life, so long ago
And all my fears, all my pain
Now that I'm fading away
As I begin to live again
Now that I'm resurrected by you
Empty rooms inside my head
There is no one to talk to
No sign of living or breathing
I'm running in circles, I'm buried alive
I'm buried alive, buried alive inside myself
So leave the past behind yourself
It's the nevermore
The road that lies ahead, yeah
That's what you're looking for
What lies behind can't be undone
The here and now has just begun
Don't look back, trust in me
Take my hand, come with me
All my fears, all my pain
Now that I'm fading away
As I begin to live again
Now that I'm resurrected by you
It is time to make a change
Close the doors and move on
The future is calling, I hear it
It's calling my name, calling my name
It's calling my name, calling my name
To find my way
So leave the past behind yourself
It's the nevermore
The road that lies ahead, yeah
That's what you're looking for
Life is short, don't waste your time
Doing nothing, that's the crime
Don't look back, trust in me
Take my hand, come with me
All my fears, all my pain
Now that I'm fading away
As I begin to live again
Now that I'm resurrected by you
All my life I dreamed in black
Surrounded only by emptiness
The kiss of life, so long ago
All my fears, all my pain
Now that I'm fading away
As I begin to live again
Now that I'm resurrected by you
8. VALE OF SHADOWS
Wanderer between two worlds
Separated by an unseen frontier
The one that's real, I call my home
The other world, inversed and lonely
The other side is upside down
One place existing in two dimensions
Strange things are going on
The beast without a name looming closer
Endless journey
It's coming through
Right next to you
Feeling it's hunger
It's crawling near
Can smell your fear
Where are you, where are you
You disappeared without a trace
Can't find you, can't find you
Kept away on the other side
I'll find you, I'll find you
I'm gonna save you from this place
Leaving the vale of shadows behind
I feel your presence everywhere
Even though you vanished in a thin line
Your cries of fear, I hear at night
You scream for help, but I cannot find you
Keep on going, don't give up
Hide yourself, beware of the monster
Strange things are going on
The beast without a face is calling your name
Endless journey
It's coming through
Right next to you
Feeling it's hunger
It's crawling near
Can smell your fear
Where are you, where are you
You disappeared without a trace
Can't find you, can't find you
Kept away on the other side
I'll find you, I'll find you
I'm gonna save you from this place
Leaving the vale of shadows behind
I don't know what is real
And what is only fantasy
I'm on the road to madness
How can I go on without you
I feel you
I hear you
And I will find you
Where are you, where are you
You disappeared without a trace
Can't find you, can't find you
Kept away on the other side
I'll find you, I'll find you
I'm gonna save you from this place
Leaving the vale of shadows behind
9. WORLD INSIDE MY HEAD
Empty pages
Where nothing comes to mind
Intoxicated
The silence is covering every beat
No inspiration
I lose myself in thought
Just frustration
The muse gave me a goodbye kiss
I close my eyes and just let go
Breathing the emptiness
The fear of giving up reenergizes me
Finally my words are crashing down again
While my hands are turned to stone
I cannot open up
Let my fingers start to create
The world inside my head
The mind is wandering off
All memories erased
The story's not begun
Of the world inside my head
Hesitating
One single gleam of hope
Then negated
It's bursting into flames again
Starting over
You kiss away my pain
Illuminated
I dare to take the final step
I close my eyes and just let go
Breathing the emptiness
The fear of giving up reenergizes me
Finally my words are crashing down again
While my hands are turned to stone
I cannot open up
Let my fingers start to create
The world inside my head
The mind is wandering off
All memories erased
The story's not begun
Of the world inside my head
I feel the emptiness inside
No words
It's shattering my mind
No words
It's driving me insane
No words
It's killing me
No words, no words
It's killing me
I feel the emptiness inside
The mind is wandering off
All memories erased
The story's not begun
Of the world inside my head
10. MY FAREWELL
Built our bridge on solid ground
It got fragile over the years
Time and rain have left their marks on it
It's not burned down
It's still here
And as I write these lines
I see how we ended up like this
I'm sending you away
You're watching over me
All the words I kept inside
Now I write myself to sleep
I'm bidding you farewell
Our last goodbye
All the words I kept inside
Now I write myself to sleep
There were days we had no field of view
We couldn't cross, too dangerous
After the strom the sun was up again
It's not burned down
It's still here
And as I write these lines
I see how we ended up like this
I'm sending you away
You're watching over me
All the words I kept inside
Now I write myself to sleep
I'm bidding you farewell
Our last goodbye
All the words I kept inside
Now I write myself to sleep
It's not burned down
It's still here
And as I write these lines
I see how we ended up like this
I'm sending you away
You're watching over me
All the words I kept inside
Now I write myself to sleep
I'm bidding you farewell
Our last goodbye
All the words I kept inside
Now I write myself to sleep
