1. AN ECHO FROM BEYOND

In many years I've had my share
But now it seems nobody cares
When all I wanted was some peace
Now everything is out of reach

Don't let my dreams get hold of me
I can hear an echo from beyond
Don't let family forget me, and who I was

Feels hard to know all trust is gone
When I think back of all we've done
Why can't I tell you how I feel
This state I'm in can't be hard to see

Don't let my dreams get hold of me
I can hear an echo from beyond
Don't let family forget me, and who I was

Who I've become

Don't let my dreams get hold of me
I can hear an echo from beyond
Don't let family forget me, and who I was


2. AT THE BRIDGE OF LIFE

I see the man I was before inside the pieces of my mirror
I feel the need for something more than just being alive

Under the sun I stand alone
At the bridge of life
I wonder how far I can go
I can't sleep, I can't fell, I don't know

I'm just a shadow of the past, with all the good times behind me
Being a pale and wornout man, it's a struggle to the end

Under the sun I stand alone
At the bridge of life
I wonder how far I can go
I can't sleep, I can't fell, I don't know

Across the bridge I'll find the truth, and I have waited a long, long time
There is no reason in living anymore, I hear the pounding of the bells

Under the sun I stand alone
At the bridge of life
I wonder how far I can go
I can't sleep, I can't fell, I don't know


3. LEAVE ME ALONE

Can you hear the voices, or is it just in my head
Can't anyone believe me, I refuse to go insane

Leave me alone, set me free
An I insane, please let this end

Why is this happening me, what sins have I done
How much more can I take, where's the silence I need

Leave me alone, set me free
An I insane, please let this end

Leave me alone, set me free
An I insane, please let this end


4. SEARCHING FOR EUPHORIA

See these prehistoric eyes watching over you
What are you trying to achieve whith you life
Holy men may walk the path of their redeemer
Their insanity will lead you to your death

All your life, telling all these lies
Making all the fools believe in you
A time will come when all of you are gone
Praying to the one you fear

Nothing good will come out of this, but why should you care
You're trusting noone else and noone's trusting you
Who will miss you when you're gone, you are all alone
Heaven won't listen to your prayers anymore

All your life, telling all these lies
Making all the fools believe in you
A time will come when all of you are gone
Praying to the one you fear

All your life, telling all these lies
Making all the fools believe in you
A time will come when all of you are gone
Praying to the one you fear


5. CONCEALED SUFFERING

Your evil soul so full of sin
You do not know if you lose or if you win
Your soul is marked by the hatred in your heart
Noone else will ever know

The madman, laughed at, you cannot see
And everybody's watching you
The sadman, poor man, you do not know
Your future is trapped in a dream

This endless road you've walked too far
Can't see it coming until it too late
You are betrayed by your insufficient mind
It is all too clear

The madman, laughed at, you cannot see
And everybody's watching you
The sadman, poor man, you do not know
Your future is trapped in a dream

You have sold out but do not know
The life you live is no longer your own
If you can't realize the pain that you have caused
It is all too clear

The madman, laughed at, you cannot see
And everybody's watching you
The sadman, poor man, you do not know
Your future is trapped in a dream


6. FADING AWAY

I see the sun going down, I'm fading away
No longer days I'm counting now, hours is what I have left
I've been waiting for so long, I'm ready to go
Can't you see I've done my things, done my things

I've had a wonderful life, I can't complain
I'm lying down in solitude, cause I'm the next
I wait for the arrival, a knocking on my door
The reaper will enter my home and take me away
And take me away

Is there a heaven to welcome me, so curious for what's beyond
All these questions I'll soon find out, I'm closing my eyes to go
If this is dying I'm not afraid, I wish I could explain
I hear him knocking, please come in, please come in

I've had a wonderful life, I can't complain
I'm lying down in solitude, cause I'm the next
I wait for the arrival, a knocking on my door
The reaper will enter my home and take me away
And take me away

I've had a wonderful life, I can't complain
I'm lying down in solitude, cause I'm the next
I wait for the arrival, a knocking on my door
The reaper will enter my home and take me away
And take me away


7. SCREAM OUT IN ANGER

How can this be happening to me
I am standing here alone
What is this I see
I am watching everything fall apart

This must be wrong, a silent place on this earth
I've spent much time where the dead have marked the path
If this timeless greed will be our death
This can't go on

Who can tell where we are heading
In this world that we have built
I see people dying
I can hear their tormented cries

This must be wrong, a silent place on this earth
I've spent much time where the dead have marked the path
If this timeless greed will be our death
This can't go on

This must be wrong, a silent place on this earth
I've spent much time where the dead have marked the path
If this timeless greed will be our death
This can't go on


8. THE JOURNEY

When I watch myself I wonder what went wrong
I said it all before but nothing ever changes no more
I wish to be alone where noone know my name
Some say that hope makes them keep on living
I don't want to be the same as I was before
At the end of this journey in my life
Time has gone too fast, I haven't found a way
Searching frequently, but everything seems to fade
I'm at a turning point, the end of this road
I have never cared what people say that I should do

I don't want to be afraid anymore
How could it be this way I'm feeling now
I don't want to be the same as I was before
At the end of this journey in my life

I'm still out here by myself, finding my own way back
To the place I thought was home
I still see the sickness of it all, the burned faces
The mutilated children, I couldn't do a thing
If someone can hear this, don't call for help
It is already for too late

I don't want to be afraid anymore
How could it be this way I'm feeling now
I don't want to be the same as I was before
At the end of this journey in my life

I don't want to be afraid anymore
How could it be this way I'm feeling now
I don't want to be the same as I was before
At the end of this journey in my life


9. LAND OF THE UNKNOWN

Long ago in a forgotten time was a land so great with just stories left
That have been told through generations
People lived since many years together in peace in their paradise
And they thought it would last forever

Please take my hand and I'll show you the way
To the land of the unknown
Don't be afraid, I am only here to lead you the way

Then a day the men in black took control over peoples minds
A new belief they were forced upon
Since that day nothing remained, their lives have changed in every way
Like a desease, fear is spread across the land

Please take my hand and I'll show you the way
To the land of the unknown
Don't be afraid, I am only here to lead you the way

Nobody knows where everything took place
The legends are alive and keep reminding us
The quest will go on until my dying days
When the time has come I will reach out and show the way


10. INTO ETERNITY

Swords in the air, blood on the fields, a fight for life
Down in the alley scream's getting higher, I see their fate

I see the vision of a time that's forever lost
From the centuries of fear into eternity

Soldier in pain screaming my name, a call of evil
Armies are marching, cities are falling, nothing's left

I see the vision of a time that's forever lost
From the centuries of fear into eternity

Lives on their minds, blood on their hands, all those who died
Mothers are crying, over their children, so much grief

I see the vision of a time that's forever lost
From the centuries of fear into eternity


11. PLAIN

Afraid to speak out my mind
But I want everyone to believe
That I can stand up and fight
For something that needs to be seen

Breaking my soul, I'm falling apart
Feeling the cold, I know what it means to be alive
Release me once again from this pain

I feel I can never reveal
The thoughts that went round in my head
Alone and abandoned again
I don't know how much I can bear

Breaking my soul, I'm falling apart
Feeling the cold, I know what it means to be alive
Release me once again from this pain

The sun will shine in my back
As I'm walking into the dark
My fear for being alive
Will lead me to meet with the dead

Breaking my soul, I'm falling apart
Feeling the cold, I know what it means to be alive
Release me once again from this pain


12. THE LAST DAY

The rain is pouring down as he walks down the path
To be punished for his sins, to get a rope around his neck
The gallow stood there smiling as the crowd were gathered
A sudden silence swept over the crowd as he was led to meet his fate

He knows this breath could be his last one
And he is sure that this is his last day
His last day

No more late and sinful nights, that belongs, to his past
He can't change what he has done, but he can beg for forgiveness
The crowd was shouting in excitement, they wait for him to hang
He could feel the air below and his darkness was complete

He knows this breath could be his last one
And he is sure that this is his last day
His last day

He knows this breath could be his last one
And he is sure that this is his last day
His last day
