Human
What is there to be done About the world today A thousand million stars Surround us as we lay Turning from the light And falling into sleep Wondering who we are And are we in too deep But people everywhere Keep falling in between The truth will set you free Is that reality? Where am I coming from Where am I going to I will go to rest Thinking I am just like you

I can sense you Through the mist in the moonlit night Shadows dancing To the beat of the pounding heart The nocturnal breeze It whispers my name It alters my spirit and feeds my pain I can feel you In my veins and inside my mind... I cannot believe It's tearing my mind, and I I cannot deceive My hunger for pain, though I tried Wake me up from this slumber In the morning I stare at the face of despair I cannot hide Dreading for the day I fear the moment The moment when I'm lost I can see, but I won't believe this The reflection of me; nothing lives, nothing dies Will I see this forever? In the morning I fear the mirrors truth Darkness will rise It's holding my heart Taking control of my senses Take me! I will not run Break me! Use my soul and Own me! I will not feel, I'll embrace this beast I cannot believe It's tearing my mind, and I I cannot deceive My hunger for pain, though I lied Waking to the state I've been turned Darkness all around and in my mind You will stand before me, loosing hope Waiting for the screams to be heard Feeding on your fear, it's my reward You cannot escape this, that's when you bleed Am I lost now? Will I wake up? I'm numb and lifeless Will I fight this... or loose? Through the window shines the crescent moonlight The empty wall reveals a missing portrait... of me... it's lost Seeking for myself in desperation, am I gone?! The mirror shows me my reflection turned to stone Scream and say my name, but no-one answers Can't remember how I used to look like Now I'm gone The night's approaching It's close but I won't turn into... you Cause I won't let you Take my spirit nor take my soul! I will not fear Searching through my mind The mirror shows me Reflecting what is real I cannot believe It's tearing my mind, and I I cannot deceive My hunger for pain I cannot believe Reflecting my soul, and I I cannot be free Until it's gone, this beast inside How I tried... How I lied... How I cried...

Now if you hold me dear If I am close to you Then life could alter in the night If I would speak to you And you would answer me Then we could turn this darkness into ever lasting light We, can we ever make it through Oh, can I ever trust in you - you leave this up to me And so we fall for the lie That we will never find A time to abide, and leave this all behind When I close my eyes Within this withered place What can break this malice course Here I lie awake Embraced insomnia Without you there's nothing left to perpetuate The lights are off and I am lost Strike my mind and let me dream (insomnia) If we embrace our fears And help each other then We can walk ways that we did not dare before Why don't I care to take your hand And choose this world with you We could fly beyond where no-one else have ever been We, can we ever make it through Oh, can I ever trust We, will we ever make it through Oh, can I ever trust in you - you leave this up to me And so we fall for the lie That we will never find A place in time, to leave this all behind When I close my eyes Within this withered place What can break this malice course Here I lie awake Embraced insomnia Without you there's nothing left to perpetuate And so we fall for the lie That we will never find A place in time, to leave this all behind I lay these words to rest Never to be found I leave this place, in my heart and mind When I close my eyes Within this withered place What can break this malice course Here I lie awake Embraced insomnia Without you there's nothing left to perpetuate

In the frozen winter Through the ice and through the snow I'm walking right beside you But little do you know I broke your trust, forgive me But I was only ten My hands, they slipped, I'm cold now I'll never fall again I was only playing with my friends I was on my way back home Into the cold Over the mountains I will follow wherever you go Over the seas Across the oceans I will travel through space and time And like a silent whisper Confiding in the wind My strength in life has always Been coming from within But you're no longer near And all I feel is fear I wish you could see me Fading in the dark But life has turned against me I wonder where you are I can't find my way back home Into the cold Over the mountains I will follow wherever you go Over the seas Across the oceans I will travel through space and time "As darkness closes in The coldness grows stronger And as his journey has just begun Mother nature won't take him to the ground" And he can hear their voices now Calling in the night But he grows weaker so just how Will he find the light Breaking through is sunrise A ray of light on skin A sense of desperation They all feel within And now he only sees them From a distance far away One last "goodbye" he whispers "I can no longer stay" Into your dreams Into the sunrise I will always be there for you Out of the dark Far from the shadows I have finally found my way back home

I know, we have our burdens But I feel that we could be So much more than we are Is this why we leave? I know that we're fallen But I can never let it go In a heartbeat we could Turn away from all we have Our days of old, be passed away Like the sands through the hourglass I would hate to see us here Falling for another lie If we could mend our mistakes Maybe it would take forever, for us If I confide in you Would I be redeemed like you? I can't keep the dark out It always seems to seep right through I just cannot fathom The wisdom you're suppose to carry If I would dare to meet you Turn away from all I have Could it wash my sins away? Would it take us through forever? If I confide in you Would I be redeemed like you? I know, we have our burdens But I feel that we could be So much more than we are Is this why we leave? I know that we're fallen But I can never let it go! If I confide in you Would I be redeemed like you? If I confide in you Would I be redeemed like you? Oh yeah... oh...

Waking up into a silent world I open my eyes, a broken earth I find A time will come for us to rise and change So we tell the stories once denied, and let our colors fly See the coldness all around you Take control over what you've done I can't take anymore So I'm turning pages Need this world to come alive Or colors will fade Turn into cold grey Nothing more than empty lies Feeding our society Walking down the road of fame and greed (Give me more, so much more) The more you show the more you will succeed (...take...it...off...) So take control, forgive and let it go But you bring the stories to the ground And let your spirit die Feel the darkness that surrounds you Take it in and see what you have done I can't take anymore So I'm turning pages Need this world to come alive Or colors will fade Turn into cold grey Nothing more than empty Lies Feeding our society Lies Breaking what we could have been Lies Tears me up inside I will not Break the trust that I have been given Or feed your lust to be in control And veil the sun, it's all just a misconception I will not Break All that we are is falling to pieces Will we ever break these chains? We need to find our way back home I can't take anymore So I'm turning pages Need this world to come alive Or colors will fade Turn into cold grey Nothing more than empty lies We can't wait anymore We're turning pages We need this world to break these Lies Hiding what we would have seen Lies Breaking what we could have been Lies Feeding our society

Deep, cold Lost strength now, drown Thought I'd never see the light of day Will I ever be awake? Will I ever reach that dawn once more? In the evening I will spread my wings and try to fly again "I am king of the night, yet I haven't conquered the day" I will fly! Into the light of dawn, leave where I hide Try to find a way to break this cage Time to emerge! I sense the dawn but I'm turning to the night Feeling secure in the shadows where I dwell Hunting for prey by the pale light from the moon But I will return Rise, breathe Swim ashore, emerge! I will rise, but you hold me down But I will try reach the tallest tree Into the morning when I finally leap and fly with all my might I will fly! Into the light of dawn, leave where I hide Try to find a way to break this cage Time to emerge! Leaving the ground, leaving this scene now I see the landscape change beneath and I Hold my head high No longer I fear I know I can fly I will fly! Into the light of dawn, leave where I hide Try to find a way to break this cage Night or day No matter when I fly, I will not hide If I fall I'll learn to rise again Learn how to live
