Lyrics

1. UNSPOKEN (SECRETS OF EVERMORE)

It´s cold outside
I fear this cage won't hold me
Terrifies me now
My shadow crawls towards that room
My mind can’t find any answers

Lived for nothing
Dead from falling
Left to be alone
Fight for justice
Betrayed from one kiss
What will I become?

In the wind, see the sign
A place for you and me
From a heart so hollow
Empty memories
Through your eyes
Will I see
The truth that lies beyond
But the words unspoken
Secrets of evermore, evermore

The fallen snow can't hide my
Darkened secret from your wounded heart
The coming storm will tear us down
My love for you burned to ashes

You can not find the pieces
From my broken heart
You were the light in the dark

Lived for nothing
Pray for something
Wash my sins away
Fight for justice
Die for one kiss
What will I become?

In the wind, see the sign
A place for you and me
From a heart so hollow
Empty memories
Through your eyes
Will I see
The truth that lies beyond
But the words unspoken
Secrets of evermore, evermore


2. FACE THE STORM

They say you need to learn from your mistakes
Even when it seems easier
To travel back in time
You won’t live to experience a moment like that again

I’m standing on the road
Where I was left all alone
You’re bleeding in my nightmares
And now I face the storm

A broken promise or a misunderstanding
What does it matter when the only thing
On my mind is that
Those immersive eyes no longer follow me

I’m standing on the road
Where I was left all alone
You’re bleeding in my nightmares
And now I face the storm


3. MARIELLE

I’ve never seen things this way
Absence changes intentions
Living treasure out of this world
Unpolished but still a diamond
Wearing that smile and linen dress
Rough edges defying the truth
In these times of misfortune
Take what I have
There’s nothing left to lose
But I hope there will be one day

Threw all my courage
Into the wishing well
On scarlet petals
I’ll lay you down Marielle

A token of an old friend’s love
Is that what you’d wish for?
Left on your doorstep one night
My blessing for an untold future
Seven little beads embroidered
Onto a red gown of pure silk
Four to your family’s good fortune
Two for us
One to our unborn child
Seven seals through eternity

I played my whole hand
Left my whole heart
Emptied my whole mind
But not my whole pocket
How will you find me now?

Threw all my courage
Into the wishing well
On scarlet petals
I’ll lay you down Marielle

Who could’ve known?
She threw a lock of hair and asked to see
That’s when we finally met by that well

Threw all my courage
Into the wishing well
On scarlet petals
I’ll lay you down Marielle

Regained my courage
From our newborn child
On scarlet petals
My valentine Marielle


4. THE INNER LIGHT

On the edge of no return
I stare out to the sea
Try to reach the other side
I dream I can't believe

Try to see a meaning of a life away from you
Take my soul and carry on
It breaks my heart in two

All these tears I try to hide
Grows deeper in my heart
Feel the touch of agony
My world keeps falling apart

Will I seize my destiny and throw the key away?
Face the truth become the one
It's time for them to pay

How will I know
When the light fades in shadows
How to belong
When you stand here in darkness alone
