Lyrics

1. THE END OF OUR CHAPTER

A dream…
Words like a poem enthralled my heart,
It was my fairy tale.
Lost in that reverie,
Ain’t no way I could see through your lies.

Staring from a golden cage
My eyes were slaves to a fake reality,
And days became years as I drifted away…

Like a phoenix I will come back
And I’ll rise from my ashes.
With a new heart, full of hate now,
No more passion cheats my mind.

Cold…
A black hole winter stole the sun,
The light in my heart.
The rays of a new day,
I see they finally pierce through the clouds.

Faded pictures of you,
All that’s left from our chapter.
Awaken from your nightmare I’ll find my way out of the dark.

My wings, broken and withered they lie…
Blackened by all your sins…
Close to the edge of myself…
Now the night is gone, I can head to the sunlight again.

Like a phoenix I will come back
And I’ll rise from my ashes.
With a new heart, full of hate now,
No more passion cheats my mind.


2. MY LAST ACT

Lights on,
The crowd awaits for me, the eyes open wide.
How coul they see the pain behind the mask?

I change my name every night,
A safe different world surrounding…

[Chorus]
Lights out
No worries, no frailties
Here where my dreams’ll forever lie.
When silence falls I can leave all lies behind.
Lights out
At the end of all plays
The shadows reveal the seed that grows in my heart,
The black swan in me when lights out…

The curtain call, a last flicker before the dark.
My room at last,
The make-up flakes…

Just me with my sorrows,
Laying somewhere cold the candle has burned out.
Grant me a wish, mirror hanging on the wall,
To dry my tears on a new dawn.

[Chorus]

Drowned in my dreams I roved in search for the sun through this endless dark.
I slip out of the door and reach the top of the Opera

The wind on my skin wipes away tears of sham as I fall…
The shades of the night crawl around me, this is the end of my last act…


3. 1000 FADING LIVES

Alone in the faint light as night reaches dawn,
A sudden blaze breaks in upon me...now I know:
Drownin' in circles my life passed me by,
For a new sun awakening another day fades to grey.

Years sink like prints in the sand,
The clock ticks, invisible hands wipe my past away

Thousand lives, few minutes then everything'll rewind again...
A cruel merry go round swallows days to a nowhen past,
Back to square one and then?

So time can't be tamed, it just keeps its course while my life stopped.
Days like a dream washed away by the sun,
They come and go, nothing left.

Life's gone in a glance, time blinks its eye and all becomes memories.
The faces, the tears, it all simply fades lost in the haze of everyday...

But when what's done is gone, what your next day'll be for?

Thousand lives, few minutes then everything'll rewind again...
A cruel merry go round swallows days to a nowhen past,
Back to square one and then?

Heir of dying memories a new self'll claim its time,
In this turnabout...

Thousand lives, few minutes then everything'll rewind again...
A cruel merry go round swallows days to a nowhen past,
Back to square one and then?


4. CHOICES

You and me in that car,
Childish dream of love.
Anomalous heartbeat when I saw you for the first time.
My world behind your eyes…

Deciding for future
That night when your lips had already been on mine
Your breath on my skin…
Together or not?
Choice for life

[Chorus]
You won’t be with me anymore.
Together or not, just anxiety in me…

So much pain in my heart,
Hot tears sliding on my cheek.
Anomalous heartbeat when I saw you for the first time.
My world behind your eyes…

Deciding for future
That night when your lips had already been on mine
Your breath on my skin…
Together or not?
Choice for life


5. THE LAST NIGHT OF ILION

My name will be carved upon the folds of time,
My love will carry rain of blood on my reign.
In silence and dark I just stare at the sullen sea,
As moon shines again past time waves back to me.

Old tapestry veined with pain and deceit.
Through the clouds forever by your side.
Just a choice but so hard it can be.
My voice as a sweet lullaby for our love…

Desire like an eternal flame on my skin,
I sailed far from home, winds of passion guide my fate.
The duty of a queen paves my way back to hollow years.
The struggle goes on in and out of my heart…

Old tapestry veined with pain and deceit.
Through the clouds forever by your side.
Just a choice but so hard it can be.
My voice as a sweet lullaby for our love…

A gift made of lies deceived our heart.
They come in the night, death walks at their side…
