1. OVERTURE

(Instrumental)


2. FLOATING AWAY

Now look at what I have become.
I'm stuck and I'm loing control.
And my darkest dreams are coming alive.
The ghost of my past has come back to get me

I've lived all my life in a lie.
A bubble that's bound to be broken.

And now when all hope is lost.
When all is over.
I wanted roses.
But only the thorns remains.
Oh how I want to be
there on the other side
I'm swimming with the stream
But I am floating away

It lives within all fears.
Only you can fight back.
You must stand against it.
Or be gone forever.

The light that was a part of my life.
A memory lost, not forgotten. and
Not even a ray shining through.
What once was can not be brought back
It all comes alive when I dream.
I can't sleep no more,
I must go


3. DARKER SHADE OF ME

Come listen close, and I will tell you my tale
If you listen, then I will teach you my ways, where it went wrong

If you hear this, then you might learn where to go
If you hear this, then i will tell you to turn, head back home

Once I lived at peace with me
My life had found its balance and
I thought I knew, I thought I saw
I thought I understood

But then it came, that dreadful night
Where everything would turn around
Then darkness came into my mind
And the light inside me died

I was changed, the good in me
Was drowned beneath my supressed rage
Misery loves company
And I would give him that

The mirrors truth, a twisted mind
The horrors of a thousand nightmares
I was trapped inside myself
A prison of the mind

I'm alone now, am I lost again
They are gone now, I am lost again

Where I'm heading theres no sunshine
Just a darker shade of me
Where I'm going there is nothing
But an endless road ahead

I am blinded, can't see nothing
But a darker shade of me
I can't think of any reason
That will make this turn around

Haunted by my darker side
My life began to fall around me
My hopes and dreams are slowly dying
Nothing left but black

The things I loved, they are all gone
Destroyed by my own hands, they fall
A hollow heart, my solitude
Their blood is on my hands

Im alone now, am I lost again
They are gone now, I am lost again

Where im heading theres no sunshine
Just a darker shade of me
Where im going there is nothing
But an endless road ahead

I am blinded, can't see nothing
But a darker shade of me
I can't think of any reason
That will make this turn around

Nothing but a dream, only images
Of a life that has long been lost

Only misery, only solitude
Only nightmares when im

Falling, falling, falling
I am only
Falling, falling, falling
I am falling

I have lost myself, I am dead inside
I can't think of a single moment

When I saw myself as I want to be
Only darkness when im

Falling, falling, falling
I am only
Falling, falling, falling
I am falling


4. FORGIVE, NEVER FORGET

This has gone on far too long
Can't seem to realise
No, it will not go away
Will it ever

We will fall
Can't look into your eyes, no
All I see
Is the lies

All is crumbling around me
Cant seem to wake up
From whats dwelling deep within
Clad in sorrows

We will fall
Can't look into your eyes, no
All I see
Is the lies

How can I get past this
How can we see this trough, I wonder
How can I let this go
I can forgive, never forget

Am I in far to deep, feels like im drowning now
I get the feeling that I won't make it out
Not alive, not as myself

Lost in darkness alone, can't find a single light
The very life that was once my own has died
All is gone, all has been lost


5. ENTR'ACTE: HUNTED BY SHADOWS

(Instrumental)


6. ARISE

Never dreaming, allways sleeping
Watch the sun fade, cross the heaven

Clad in shadows, buried in mist
Allways wandering, never finding

Cannot seem to find the door,
I can't find my way out
Endless prison, endless chains,
I cannot get out

All my limbs have gotten numb,
I can't seem to wake up
Everything has become worse,
I cannot get out

All I have is my own dreams,
I have nothing else left
All I was is nothing more,
I cannot get out

Lying here awake in my dream, cant see the end of this
Is this all whats left of my life, endless inprisonment
Nothing left to do but to fade into a memory
I can't fight the fear that is just far to great

Drawing the last breath of my life, this is my final words
Leaving all regrets far behind, I only look ahead
Fearing what im facing right now, I cannot comprehend
Taking my final leap of faith into nothing

Everything that I once where have been left to fade away
Taking the last step to the end, a new horizon waits
Nothing is determined and nothing is forgotten, no
All that was and all that is will be remembered

Run away, fly away, there is nothing left for me
Run away, fly away, I am just a memory
Run away, fly away, find the light and you will see
Run away, fly away, I am just a memory

Run away, fly away, there is nothing left for me
Run away, fly away, I am just a memory
Run away, fly away, find the light and you will see
Run away, fly away, I am just a memory


7. NO ESCAPE

(No lyrics available)


8. HOLLOW

Fear and pain, again it’s what I’m feeling
And it never ends, will it
Destroy me now? Will I embrace the darkness once again?
Will I last?

Once again, no-one will believe me
When I say that this will be
My last breath, I will never see daylight anymore
Goodbye

I can't see why you should walk this road again

Oh, I am hollow inside
(You can't break free)
It seem to be neverending
(You can never escape, you are bound to it)

Time has come, life is fading away
As I close my eyes, drowning in
Misery, depression has cast a shadow on my life
Forever

My hope is gone, and all the things worth living for are
Dead by now, gone into
Oblivion, I face the horrors of my dreams
Farewell

I can't see why you should walk this road again

Oh, Oh, I am hollow inside
(You can't break free)
It seem to be neverending
(You can never escape, you are bound to it)

My heart has turned black, my life is revealed
And I can’t fool myself no more
I can see my destiny and it doesn’t look bright
And now I’ll meet my ending
My soul is long gone, my mind paralyzed
And I'm falling into darkness now
I can see my future, and there is no light
And now I'll face my fate
My eyes has turned blank, my body is numb
And I can't be afraid no more
I can see my closure and it doesn´t look bright
And now I’ll fade away


9. ENTR'ACTE: FINDING THE WAY HOME

(Instrumental)


10. CLOSE THE DISTANCE

This has been my longest journey
It has been my toughest trial yet
And I don't know if ill make it
But I won't give up, it wont break me

It has been my breaking point
I have seen the darkest side of me
And i still feel I don't know myself
Never understood what I must know

Finally, I see the light
At the end, this is where
I make my final stand, the final push
This is all that is, and will be

But it isn't over, not by far
This will only make it harder and
I'm not sure that I can take it but
I have no choise but to try

This is my final trial, where I prove myself
Will I let myself down?
Taking the final leap, and I just know that I

Havent come this far so I could give up
Didnt do all this so I could fail
This is not the time where i surrender
This is where i close the distance, finally

When I crossed the line, this is all that is remaining
When I crossed the line, this is everything thats left of me
Once I crossed the line, things will turn around
Once I crossed thie line I will face my future

On the other side everything is changed
On the other side a new life awaits

Now I see this has no ending
All my life will be is what it was
An endless struggle, never rest
From the dark that all ways hunted me

Nothing ever change, allways the same
Everything remains until I fade
Into nothing but a memory
But at least I can remember

This is my final trial, where I prove myself
Will I let myself down?
Taking the final leap, and I just know that I

Haven't come this far so I could give up
Didn't do all this so I could fail
This is not the time where I surrender
This is where I close the distance, finally


11. LOST

Night is falling, darkness coming
Will not see another day, the
Vanishing light

Running blindly, never stopping
Cannot see where this road takes me
I'm forever lost

Facing ahead, never look back
Letting every thought slip away
Everything is lost

Oh, where will I head from here
I cannot see how this will make things better

What can I do to change things
I fail to see how I can find my way out

Running blindly, never stopping
Cannot see where this road takes me
I'm forever lost

Oh, where do we go from here
I cannot see how we can turn this around

What will we do to change this
I fail to see how we can run from this

Facing ahead, never look back
Letting every thought slip away
Everything is lost


12. ILLUSIONS

I will tell you a story of absolute truth
I will show you a glimpse of a neverending light

Come and feel the magic of knowing it all
Come and listen to my words and rise up above

Listen to me, hear what I say
I'll promise you, you will never be afraid
Come follow me, dont turn away
Come follow me away from the lies

Come see the light, come see the truth
And learn that he is watching you
Come, walk with me and take my hand
And I will show the righteous path

I just know that its the only way to go
Heaven shall come

I will show you what it means to be cleansed from all your sins
I am living in a dream, leaving sanity behind

I will show the other side, secrets they won't let you know
Blackened eyes and blackened mind, leaving freedom far behind

I'll open you eyes and show you that the
love of our God sets you free

I'll open your mind and tell you that the
words of their God brings you down

I will never lie to you
I will open your heart and your mind, to let him embrace you

You will never leave his side again, he will never let you go

Come with me and run away from them, or they will allways keep control

We will never let you stray away, now that you are one of us

You have got to break out from these chains, shackles of religious lies

Don't you dare to step away from us, or hellfire takes its toll

Find the power, go, just take a leap, freedom calling you once more

Don't you wanna be free from the lies of your kind?
Don't you wanna find peace and salvation inside?
Don't you see that your soul is infected with sins?
Don't you see you're devouring yourself from within?
We can show you the path to the heavens above
We can sing you the praise of our Gods righteous love

Don't you wanna be free from the lies of your kind?
Don't you wanna find peace and salvation inside?
Don't you see that your soul is infected with sins?
Don't you see you're devouring yourself from within?
We can show you the path to the heavens above
We can sing you the praise of our Gods righteous love
We can show you the one and the only true way
We can tear down you soul, your body, your mind!


13. MY LAST STORY

Shadows rising before us
Darkness covering mankind
Shattered, nothing is left but
Fragments of our former selves

All things comes to an ending
Nothing will last forever
Our fate was never written
Time to pay the ferryman

Our hope fading away now
Our life burning to ashes
All gone, nothing remaining
Just close your eyes and wait

This will be my last story

Forever lost, nothing remains
The greatest of tragedys written

We tell our goodbyes, what might be our last
And never ask ourselves why

Where will this go, how will it end
Come witness the ending begin

The future was ours, the pages where clean
Our story was ours to write
The fault is our own, theres no-one to blame
Together we'll take the fall

Shadows rising before us
Darkness covering mankind
Shattered, nothing is left but
Fragments of our former selves

All things comes to an ending
Nothing will last forever
Our fate was never written
Time to pay the ferryman

Our hope fading away now
Our life burning to ashes
All gone, nothing remaining
Just close your eyes and wait

And here we are, beaten, broken, nothing left
We are but a shell of what we where

Anger, hatred, loathing, nothing else
We are but a shade of what could've been

We are, beaten, broken, nothing left
We are but a shell of what we where

Anger, hatred, loathing, nothing else
We are but a shade of what could've been
