Embraced by the midwinter frost The light of darkness slips away Black roses surround the fields Strange floating lights, they float Endless visions into forever Forever Eternity their burning shadows Spirits break the mist Destiny takes the final twist Beauty arise in a flood of bright, or maybe light Screams fill their lungs Silence Traumatic voyage for the lost Horrified in their empty shells Alone in the world full of life Sadness their only delight Silence of the dead, beautiful as hell Eternity their burning shadows Spirits break the mist Destiny takes the final twist Screams of silence Beyond the gate of emptiness The well of burning fright Lost in between, all life is forgotten Embraced by the midsummer breeze Back in the silence of the world beyond Back in the silence of the world beyond Eternity their burning shadows Spirits break the mist Destiny takes the final twist Beauty arise in a flood of bright, or maybe light Screams fill their lungs Silence Embraced by the midwinter frost The light of darkness slips away Black roses surround the fields Strange floating lights, they float Endless visions into forever Forever Eternity their burning shadows Spirits break the mist Destiny takes the final twist…

I watch the sun go down as I feel The coldness crawling unto me Sitting huddled up Trying to figure out the meaning of existence Yet I have found no answers (no answers at all) I feel so small still, I must be the most Powerful of all Suddenly it stood clear There in the light of dawn First sunbeams of day A vision of me appeared A thought to tame Behold life, meaningless and empty What have we learned? The awareness makes me scared I don't mean to say that I'm better in any way It's that I want something higher.

The awareness makes me scared I don't mean to say that I'm better in any way. Just that I want something higher (x3) I want something higher

Spellbound by the night Anger turns into rage Forced into rooms of hate Bleeding although there is no wound Taking pleasure from torture I see it eating me alive I feel it burning me from inside Soothing our selfish thoughts I'm empty in body and soul No longer alive, dancing still dead Darkside forever alive Disease that can never be cured Leave it all behind, still I am trapped Will I ever be free ? I wish I could end it now I wish I could end it all But there you are Pushing it over the edge Again and again and again Spellbound by my own illusions Too proud to fall down on my knees I wish I could bleed, to clean all the wounds Leave it all behind and drown in my dreams For all my sins, forgive me And at last I'll be free

Lost in the halls of dream Bound by the chains of a scream Here we stand alone Never allowed to know What's behind the wall of sleep Imprisoned in a web of night In search of an emerald sky The astral body flies, I stand alone Through the dust of ages, forlorn Chased by the wind and the storm Enslaved by the orchids sweet scent A tear from the dead man's eye Wings of fallen angel burn Where's the gold at the rainbows end It is there but oh so far away Flames of fire burns so deep As we fall out of the orchid's sleep An emerald sky before our eyes Disappearing in the morning sun Is it for real or is it the dream ? Imprisoned in a web of night In search of an emerald sky The astral body flies, I stand alone Through the dust of ages…. Forlorn Chased by the wind and the storm Enslaved by the orchids sweet scent A tear from the dead man's eye Where is the gold at the rainbows end ? It is there, but oh so far away.

A sane man wanders In hopes high not to die To master and to understand The sickness of every soul One breath in the frozen darkness, Darkness burning with fear Feeding upon the mind Twisting and turning A sick and broken portrait of balance The swift dagger of madness But with madness comes power Sanity splits apart Paradox upon paradox Painfully draining Yet unseen untouched Sanity falls, falls into the pit of nothingness To pure is the vision of corruption Too close, too sick The mind cracks Shatters and disappears in the darkness Nothing has changed Life continues it's sick parody Of it's ideal And only death can set us free (And only death) can set us free The black spiral A sick and broken portrait of balance The swift dagger of madness But with madness comes power Sanity splits apart Paradox upon paradox Painfully draining Yet unseen untouched Sanity falls, falls into the pit of nothingness

This track is instrumental.
Nothing is what we are Silence surrounds our presence No longer can we speak The days, why can't they end? A different kind of magic Controls the few of mortals Enslaved are all the others Except the hungry beasts. That will live through Both dawn and day Promises of the promised land Never to be fulfilled Lies..... Icefilledwasteland Take us through infinity Oceans of grey All life has ceased Forests of ebony, graveyards to be No, what has been done The castles now left in ruins, (left in ruins) The essence of betrayal Engulfed in our blood Sunrise will it ever be The dawn has come We are all burned by the flames of life Still nothing has been done In the twilight of fear In the twilight of fear

Sanctuary for me has been banished I search for forgiveness Which I can not find Losing myself, I am drained out of life The silk black shadows will take my mind Sadness and sorrow take my hands As I ride the wings of destiny The grief of others I share with pain Twisting and turning, I'm longing for death I'm within the blackest of black All my wounds will burn me in flames At the end of the rope, I'll hang to be free Losing myself, I am drained out of life The silk black shadows will take my mind You hide from the daylight, To shine the dark Lost in my own world of predestined fate Oh, how I long to feel I'm burning inside The ashes remain A hollow and empty shell All alone, forever I am The tender kiss of life I have never felt, nor will I feel Embraced by death, My last breath, I take The only one to whisper goodbye Is death that I greet with my empty heart Embraced by death, My last breath, I take The only one to whisper goodbye Is death that I greet with my empty heart All love is lost as I desolve in the wind In vain, I am gone And that I regret Forgive but don't forget (All love is lost as I desolve in the wind In vain, I'm gone And that I regret Forgive but don't forget)

I awake, gone is my dream Only its mist fades away Back is fear and sadness Claiming my heart like a black hand I cry as I refuse to accept this day I want back the dream, unreality In its grasp I am free Only in its domain can I live Now on this day I am powerless, pointless I can not continue through this misery Here no spirits will guide me And I wish for eternal life in fantasy I am surrounded by a world of ignorance and hate Yet it's my reality I can not expect it, so be it I shall end my life Away from reality Eternity unfolds (Away from reality, eternity un)folds
