1. PRELUDE TO DESTRUCTION

(Instrumental)


2. THE DOWNFALL OF HUMANITY: THE DOWNFALL

Our charge is abandoned, wasted
The ashes are raining from the sky
There is no forgiveness for what we've done

The task that was laid upon us
We relinquished without a second thought
And now we must face what we have wrought

Destruction and ruin, it caused us to fall
We destroyed what we had to live for
Redemption and peace are lost to us now
We shattered the dream and broke our word

Wasting time, trusting others to do what was right
Running blind into chaos
And we end up falling!

Taking pride in our own greed
Wanting more, letting everything crumble to dust,
Now the world is dying!

What if we had heard the warnings
That were given in the beginning?
What if we had stopped,
Remembered everything that we had promised?

Did we wake too late to heed
The call that brought us to our senses?
Could we have been saved,
Reversed the damage that we have inflicted?

Our world lies in ruins, shattered
And we are the only ones to blame
It is our pain, our grief, our shame

Destruction and ruin, it caused us to fall
We destroyed what we had to live for
Redemption and peace are lost to us now
We shattered the dream and broke our words


3. STAY WITH ME

Stay with me!
Come, hold my hand, I beg you!
The end is near
Slowly, my light is fading

Sing for me,
The sound with soothe and calm me
Fear and pain,
will soon fade forever

When all your light is gone,
I will try to carry on.
For you I will be strong,
For you I will hold on.

I'm drifting away
I'm slipping away from you
This is goodbye
To all that we have been through

All words have been said
The memory is safe with you
This is farewell
There's nothing you can do

Do you linger still?
Your hand on mine,
You'll have to let me go!
The cold darkness closing in,
My time has come
To leave this world behind.
The end is
Anguish!

The light is almost gone
The end is near,
My sight is turning dark
And my body's going numb.
I'm slipping fast,
Don't let me go until my last breath!

Hold me close!
Your heartbeat will keep me with you.
I am here,
Safe and warm within you.

Love and loss,
The life that we spent together.
I am here,
Locked in your heart forever.

Don’t leave me here,
Alone and empty!
Please don’t go,
I can’t live without you!

I'm drifting away
I'm slipping away from you
This is goodbye
To all that we have been through

All words have been said
The memory is safe with you
This is farewell
There's nothing you can do

I'm drifting away
I'm slipping away from you
This is goodbye
To all that we have been through

All words have been said
The memory is safe with you
This is farewell
There's nothing you can do


4. PERILOUS SLEEP

I am sleep, eternal bliss
Once caught you will never leave

Come to me, come close your eyes
Let my voice carry you far away,
Deeper
Never to leave, always asleep
Lost in time and dreams forevermore

Gone, bound to me, you will waste away
In my grasp you will stay 'til the end

My song drowning your senses
Sending you to your last rest

Come to me, come close your eyes
Let my voice carry you far away,
Deeper
Never to leave, always asleep
Lost in time and dreams forevermore

Gone, bound to me, you will waste away
In my grasp you will stay 'til the end


5. THE DOWNFALL OF HUMANITY: THE FALLEN

I have told a thosand lies.
My demons are controlling my mind.
Fueled by the dark that lives inside.
I hate what I have become.

There are no monsters under my bed.
They all live inside my head.
Feeding on my pain.
Growing stronger every day.

Emptiness, Panic is growing.
I am weak, turned into nothing
Turn around, Embrace the darkness
Close my eyes, wait for the silence

Its getting close to the end
Time to let go of your life
Do as I say and I'll show you the way out of this hell

You took my life away from me.
My scars are too deep to be healed.
What have I done to deserve your hate?
Nothing matters, it’s all too late

The point of no return has been crossed.
My mask of sanity has been lost.
I’m slowly starting to fade away.
Growing fainter and fainter every day

Come follow me and I will make all your pain go away.
Lose your senses and let me lead you away from here
Give yourself to me and I will make your death painless
As your light´s fading I will make you the fallen

Emptiness, Panic is growing.
I am weak, turning into nothing
Turn around, Embrace the darkness
Close my eyes, wait for the silence

Its getting close to the end
Time to let go of your life
Do as I say and I'll show you the way out of this hell

There are no monsters under my bed.
They all live inside my head.
Feeding on my pain.
Growing stronger every day.

Come follow me and I will make all your pain go away.
Lose your senses and let me lead you away from here
Give yourself to me and I will make your death painless
As your light´s fading I will make you the fallen


6. LEFT BEHIND

My world is gone,
Devastated and empty of people...
...so quiet.

Not a word,
Not a single sound has been uttered.
I was left behind, all alone.
How will I face this?
Will I find my path again?

Screaming,
I try to break the silence,
No one's there to hear me.
Hunting for a sign of life and I am
Running,
Searching for an answer,
Looking for a haven.
Will I find a way out?
Will I find a home?

My world is silent and so cold,
Devoid of life and joy.

I thought I heard voices, far away.
Were they real or just a lie?

Is my life a lie?
Can I break the silence?
Where are all the people?
Will I find my way home?

I will live my life!
I will break the silence!
I will find the people!
I will find my way home!

I will not surrender!
I will find my way home!


7. BREAKING THE CHAINS

The ray of hope I carry with me
Will be my guiding light,
To ward away the crowding shadows
That haunt my every waking hour,
And every dream.

To spread my wings and leave behind
The worries and the pain.
But when the words you said surround me,
I know that I will never be
Free of your chains.

The light that I thought I saw
Was just a lie!
You made me believe that the love was real,
I was a fool,
And now I am trapped!

I am a prisoner here,
Caught by your words.
You tore me down and you laughed at me,
Revelled in my pain,
My tears and my shame.

The words
You said
To control me and to tear my heart to
Shreds
Again,
Leaving me to bleed at your feet.
I just want to spread my wings
And fly far away from here.

I was in love and I could not see the monster inside you.

Lying hollow and alone, a broken soul within me.

I have to set things right again and find the strength to leave you.

The ray of hope I carried with me
Would be my guiding light.
I found the courage and the heart
To take my life into my own hands...
...I am free!


8. THE DOWNFALL OF HUMANITY: ETERNAL NIGHT

All hope is gone now
Your world has fallen
The end is coming
And everything´s beyond your control

No one will save you
There is no future
This night is endless
All that you had is lost forever

The land is burning
Darkness surrounds you
It will destroy you
And nothing will rise from the ashes

There´s no salvation
On your horizon
Dreaming is futile
Your life no longer has a purpose

All that I’ve done.
Has been in vain
My will to fight is long gone

Hiding my soul.
In a heart made of stone.
Where they can’t find it.

The damage is done.
Im on the run.
Away from all that I loved

Hidden away
So far from this world
I'm affraid of the silence

Dont let them break you down
The walls are closing in
But there´s still hope for you
If we’re still standing.

United we will stand
Divided we will fall
And they will only win
If we surrender

Why can’t you see?
It is over.
I won’t be free.
I give up

Dont tell me it’s over
That our battle has come to an end
We will find our way out of here

Why can’t you see it?
You are living deep inside a lie
Time to open up your eyes

How did we get here?
Is it all our fault?
It isn’t over until darkness falls

Your resistance has been crushed
Your reign is over mine has just begun

Please just let her go.
Is she really gone?
Are we the ones to blame? What have we become?

Just embrace me as your savior.
And I will lead you to the right path

I am alone here now.
Drifting in and out of reality.
Im so far away

Im under his control.
Sorrow takes it’s toll
On my heart and soul
I’ve fallen

Into darkness that erases all my memories
When its done it wont leave a trace of me

It has all changed-
It’s clear to me now
Its pointless to stand against him

He has tightended his grip
On my fragile mind
There is no denying

I have given up
I sold him my soul
It only hurts because it must

Im losing my mind
This i goodbye
I’ll never be myself again

Dont let them break you down
The walls are closing in
But there´s still hope for you
If we’re still standing.

United we will stand
Divided we will fall
And they will only win
If we surrender

Why can’t you see?
It is over.
I won’t be free.
I give up
