1. THE SHADOW RUSE

Sometimes it feels like everything goes well
Sometimes it feels just like a living hell
The light of day is calling out my name
But when I answer the shadows start their game

You’re gonna move
To the shadow ruse

Round and round, my head is spinning now
The sun arose but it’s still night somehow
Inside my head I know it’s shadows playing games
Try to make sense of it, it’s light and dark the same

You’re gonna move
To the shadow ruse

It's dark and it's light
It's wrong and it's right
The shadows dance all around
One will deceive
But with both you believe
The balance of life is profound

The dark makes the light brighter
And the light makes the shadows appear

The night and day complete a revolution
Show me the way to my evolution
And when the shadows come, I will join their game
With some lucidity, it’s light and dark again

You’re gonna move
To the shadow ruse
Fantasy muse
Controlling you

It's dark and it's light
It's wrong and it's right
The shadows dance all around
One will deceive
But with both you believe
The balance of life is profound

It's dark and it's light
It's wrong and it's right
The shadows dance all around

One will deceive
But with both you believe
The balance of life is profound

The dark makes the light brighter
And the light makes the shadows appear


2. NO ONE KNOWS

We get some rules to follow
That and this, these and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick in your throat?
Tastes like gold
Oh, what you do to me
No one knows

And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I

I journey through the desert
Of the mind with no hope
I follow
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone
Pleasantly caving in
I come undone

And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I

Heaven smiles above me
What a gift here below
But no one knows
The gift that you give to me
No one knows


3. FROM THE ABYSS

In darkest trenches I have found
Reason to fight
Down in the mud I start to rise
Behold the sight

Head lifted high I take up arms
With shield and sword
The time has come to stand my ground
And sound the call

Battle has come, it’s time to fight

From the abyss I wage war
See my crusade come
Must persevere and stay strong
I’m alive

Now is the time to strike hard
Don’t stand in my way
This is my time
I’m alive

Here at the end I stand alone
The conqueror
Raise up my fist, claim what is mine
Now hear me roar

Battle has come, it’s time to fight

From the abyss I wage war
See my crusade come
Must persevere and stay strong
I’m alive

Now is the time to strike hard
Don’t stand in my way
This is my time
I’m alive

Fight for your life
