1. THE DAWNING

Beyond the walls the world has swallowed its revenge
We're safe at dark and fate has given us a chance,
We're sleeping for now, who knows if we'll wake up at dawn
And I've seen with my eyes the sorrow of who wore a crown of thorns

The world explodes and shows the tragedy of fools
Who chose the war and turned to ashes and ruins
No might or command to obey in the poisoned land
And I keep death inside, just sleeping with corpses at night

Before the dawn we'll cross the line
We're living to be free, behold an ancient time
The soldier now, he stands around
And all that has been written on the path has some meaning

Unchained and bold we walk towards the sun
Down there we'll set the time and find a place, for it's too late

No might or command to obey in the poisoned land
We're sleeping for now, who knows if we'll wake up at dawn


2. OUTSIDERS

The only ones that I remember,
The outsiders, they called me on a winter day
And told me they just had been wandering
The outsiders, and came in for a change

Once we had the right
To spend the days and fight
Showing photographs, now
We will need another train

Once we were the night
And watched in black and white
Showing hurricanes, now
We will creep across the street

And all of our thoughts in the water
The outsiders are lost in the ignorance
And all the seasons always changing
For the outsiders it all remains unchanged


3. OIONOS

Here we hear over our silence,
Remember, if you sleep, nightmares will end
Pray for me, you'll be remembered
For what you've been revealed all has been done

Erase your shadows, the black is there
A storm of vultures coming closer for the end
Remind your sorrow back through the light
The night that follows is our promise to be in the right

Down the hill, over the barren land,
I hear you call my name begging for death

Beyond the world, shattering our silence
And scattering the vultures that revealed
The morning tide, the secure hide for the sleepers
And drifting in the air we'll meet the great warlord


4. FALLEN REIGN

"One day you'll see the light"
The old man said to me
In a faceless life,
Light of hypocrisy

I'll see the darkness brighter
Life will not succeed my memories
And in the mortal past
I've seen a holocaust

Fallen reign in the distance
Fallen reign in your eyes
We're never satisfied
And the world disappeared

What's the world with this light
That you guarantee?
What remains of this life,
Is it life?

And I remember
A crowd of voices out of the range
And stranger faces
With no expressions to exchange

The pool of silver
Prepared us to some promised land
And deep the water
The light brought us farther

Strangled land
We'll never stop and wondering why
Sacred fire,
You'll never stop to burn

6. LOST HUMANITY

I'll be back at sunrise even farther tonight
Waiting for them to put up a fight,
I hope I won't be afraid when they will come forward
Someone will hide, someone will not

Once again I am waiting here for them
Hoping, showing them humanity that once they were
Everyday I wait, everyday I live
To meet another man...

I've never felt so alone,
It would be enough for one
Winning a war to convert a soul

Once again I am waiting here for them
Once again to show humanity that once they were
Every day I pray, I want to be for them
Just another man...

I do not have mercy on me
I do not want to admit,
I should swallow all of this hate
And become the very prey

Once again I am here, in front of them,
Trying to show the enemy I am just a man
Everyday I wait, everyday I live,
To meet another friend or meet another enemy

Once again I wait, once again I see
The failure in their hunger,
In their blood, over my hopes
Every day I'm wrong, everyday I get
Just another dead...


7. SURVIVORS SLEEP

Here we are, soldiers of fortune and glory
Saw the earth breaking in two,
Wondering what could we get from this half life
Will we damn the days we set in our way?

Our souls of unbelievers
Will call the rage of Christ
Disturb survivors' sleep
And the desert world will cry

Here we are walking the red and grey district
Saw a man sewing his mouth,
We were preached to find some comfort in waiting
And the common man is able to shout

The secrets of unholy
Will prevent us from praying
Survivors for the glory
Here where the orphans play

Our souls of unbelievers
Will call the rage of Christ
Disturb survivors' sleep
And the entire world will cry


8. CHANT OF WIDOWS

Burning sun, if you hear me
Burn those roses in the sand
They can sing their litany
They can suffer in my tears
Land of communion burn inside

Rushing blood into my eyes
Chant of widows on the streets
Warriors coming right on their way
But no enemies to fight,
Land of confusion cast me aside

Out in the garden, sleeping, pleading
Behind the doorway, begging, starving
Around the corner, mourners, murders
We're just survivors in the city

Thoughts of death in words and knives
Chant of widows in my mind
They can sing my revenge
And evoke the lord of fire
Land of communion burn inside
Land of confusion cast me aside


9. HOPE. SHE'S IN THE WATER

My hope, she's in the water,
I swear I saw at night when she left me, my hope
I read her lines, then left me drown as guilty, my hope
And through the window spied on me, my hope, my hope

And she possessed me, she laid down the law, I worked, she refused me
I swear, the more I worked, the more I felt she'd leave me, my hope
I've thrown my mind and future, makes me worry, I know
Now please, just let me mesmerize the world

I don't know what time will be when light will break the silence
I just know that sound is near when knives will stab our hearts
I don't know my dynasty and fear will keep the distance
I just know my tragedy, but I'm a man of war


10. RUSSIANS (STING COVER)

In Europe and in America,
There's a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets

Mister Krushchev says, "We will bury you!"
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It'd be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too

How can I save my little boy
From Oppenheimer's deadly toy?
There is no monopoly on common sense
On either side of the political fence

We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology,
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too

There is no historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth of the president
There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't believe anymore

Mister Reagan says, "We will protect you"
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you,
I hope the Russians love their children too

We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology,
But what might save us, me and you,
Is if the Russians love their children too
