1. INTRO

We are the echoes
Of thousand of years
A voice that will never dissapear
With the power to tear down your fortress
With the strength to endure all your hate
We are more than a lost generation
All we have in our hands is our fate


2. BRIGHTER DAYS

How could I forget
The dreams we had
And the promises
We made to ourselves

Memories of brighter days
Remembrance of another way
Forgotten for ages, lost in time
No cross to mark the place they lie

Take it back
Take it back
To how it used to be

Take it back
Take it back
The life that was always yours
And never give it away

The years go by
And we still wonder if there's
More to this
More to this

Now we wave goodbye
And there was always something
More to this
More to this

They say that time runs like sand
And so does your life
Tossing and turning for the sake of nothing
Struggling to survive
How can we live on if it's always the same
When we are starved, fucked and caught in routine
Caught in routine

The colours fade away
Leaving nothing but the bitter taste of regret
Time's up, no chance to reset
Life ends and we all pay the debt

Take it back
Take it back
To how it used to be

Take it back
Take it back
The life that was always yours
And never give it away

The years go by
And we still wonder if there's
More to this
More to this

Now we wave goodbye
And there was always something
More to this
More to this


3. REALITY & FICTION

My life's
A Contradiction
Split into reality and fiction
My life's a product
Of indecision
Of fear that retains me like prison

The imperfection in me
I built my castle
I built my walls
To protect me from all the world holds

All I wanted to be was a brave man
But the choices I make
The path that I take
Have made me to who I am

It took so long to see
To understand what I've grown to be
There's so much more in me

My heart
Had good intentions
If they were the cause of my actions
If there was something
I could have done
To hold me away from the coward I've become

The imperfection in me
I built my castle
I built my walls
To protect me from all the world holds

All I wanted to be was a brave man
But the choices I make
The path that i take
Have made me to who I am

There's so much more in me
So much more to set free
It took so long to see
To understand what I've grown to be

All I wanted to be was a brave man
But the choices I make
The path that I take
Have made me to who I am

It took so long to see
To understand what I've grown to be
There's so much more in me


4. SAVIOR

I never thought I'd be
As close to the edge as I am today
If there's no one to hold me back
I might be better off taking a step forward

But there's one thing I can't forget
The promise I made to never regret
To never look back
And to always be brave
But what if I'm the one who needs to be saved

What if there's no savior
What if there's no way to come back home
What if we wait forever
To find a way - we'll find a way

Over and over
Again and again
Will we be released
Will it ever end
Demanding our hero
We're crying for help
If time won't save us
Can we save ourselves

Searching for answers, a restless mind
A place that knows
Neither dark nor light
A truth I denied
Something left undone
The fear I swore I would overcome

What if there's no savior
What if there's no way to come back home
What if we wait forever
To find a way - we'll find a way

What if there's no savior
What if there's no way to come back home
What if we wait forever
To find a way - we'll find a way

Over and over
Again and again
Awaiting our savior without avail
Rely on your hero
I won't cry for help
Rather trade my life
For the trust in myself

If there's no one who can
Enlighten my pathway from now til the end
If there's no one to right me
To hold and to guide me
I'll raise my head
For I'm surviving

If there's no one who can
Enlighten my pathway from now til the end
If there's no one to right me
To hold and to guide me
I'll raise my head
For I'm surviving

6. PHANTOMS (FT. MICHAEL MCGOUGH OF BEING AS AN OCEAN)

The night has always been
My dearest protection
From all that I've seen
My armor
My shelter
To flee from the world or my friend say

Can you tell me?
If there's some better way
Than trading the colors I loved
And the pain
For the black as a cure

But if I open my eyes
Can you promise me the darkness is gone and the light
Will return to our world return to my eyes?

Too far to face the world
Too strayed from the path
My point of return
This silence
My prison
Fears blocking my vision

Time never changed
Our perfection of pain
Our concept of misery
Counting the days
Since I turned my back on what I loved

But if I open my eyes
Can you promise me the darkness is gone and the light
Will return to our world return to my eyes?

The echoes
Are calling my name
The shadows
Clinging to my face
Through the night
Through the night
Leaving the track
Giving up the fight
Through the night
Through the night
I lost myself, I lost my pride
But at least I know that I am alive

Cause in the night we're all alone
Wandering around
In search of the unknown
Chase the sun
Clarify your vision
And reach beyond the night
Reach beyond the night

But if I open my eyes
Cause in the night we're all alone
Can you promise me the darkness is a gone and the light

Cause in the night we're all alone
(Wandering around)
In search of the unknown
Will return to our world return to my eyes? (In search of the unknown)
Cause in the night we're all alone (Can you promise me the darkness is a gone and the light)
Wandering around
In search of the unknown (Will return to our world return to my eyes?)


7. CLOCKWORK

You know you’ve waited far too long
Another day already gone
Through all the times you stayed unhurt
So many lessons never learned

You never tasted any blood
How can you say you understood
What if a dream’s price is your life
What if there’s only tonight

Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
(yeah)
The best of me, the best of me

Come take your chance
Come take the key
A heart unlocked can set you free
From all the ties that hold you down
Believe me you are not alone

(ohoho)
There’s no time to stop the clocks
(ohoho)
There’s no time to stop the clocks

You never tasted any blood
How can you say you understood
What if a dream’s price is your life
What if there’s only tonight

Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
(yeah)
The best of me, the best of me

Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
The best of me, the best of me


8. MONUMENTS

With nothing to live for
We aim for a life
Given the plot to the
Stories we write
United in fate and
This anthem we sing
No sheep to a shepherd
We're pawns to a king

We claim to be something more
A masterpiece, an individual
Yet we fail miserably
Stuck in a cage called life
We sit, we wait for more
And sing the anthem of our own demise

Our own demise
Now take the crown
Now take the crown

This is our anthem
For the dreams we choose to live
This is our anthem
For a life, for a life time

Given the power to mend
Our lives to our heart's content
If life's a lesson
We fail to grasp
That our lives are
Monuments built to last

Always blaming someone else
For the flaw in the plan
Our own mistakes
Create or take your chance
Preserve your dignity
If you don't want your life
To be a constant misery
(misery)

Now take the crown
Now take the crown

This is our anthem
For the dreams we choose to live
This is our anthem
For a life, for a life time

With nothing to live for
We aim for a life
Given the plot to the
Stories we write
United in fate and
This anthem we sing
No sheep to a shepherd
We're pawns to a king


9. TROPHIES (FT. MICHAEL LAWLER)

So here we are on the ground again
This love was lost the day it began
Ready to get hurt with our hearts on our sleeves
We had something to believe
Cherishing seeds of ingenuous hope
Beware of what you feed

Until the day I found you my fire burned out
A thousand suns extinguished
Dead in doubt
I never meant to let go
Hard to keep it alive
I gave it all but it's so
Hard to keep it alive

The stars are falling tonight
With heaven's tears our fire has died
Alive, alive - why is it so
Hard to keep it alive

Come pick me up, let me feel again
This is not where it's supposed to end
A hole in our chests
Where a heart should beat
Empty vessel for a lifeless soul
Scratches and scars
No more blood to bleed
Only trophies we can show

Until the day I found you my fire burned out
A thousand suns extinguished
Dead in doubt
I never meant to let go
Hard to keep it alive
I gave it all but it's so
Hard to keep it alive
Hard to keep it alive
