Diary of Dreams
Album • 2009
You follow the path that you meant to avoid A matter of time till an echo unfolds What the next step might bring You take a look back while your heartbeat is raging To the song you sing When silence evolves into a deafening noise When the blackening coat weaves a ceiling of darkness When I speak the words that you wish me to say When voices of sound come to life all around I could never say these words to you I could never doubt the way you do I could never trace the steps for you I could never live the way you do Adrenaline pumping in every vein I must go now and look for a new place to hide You will chase me again I am certain of that But be sure that the next time you will not succeed When you're begging for shelter don't knock on my door When you say that you changed you have done that before When a tear in your eye - what a great alibi - Tries to weaken my senses, shatter all that I learned I will never say these words to you I will never doubt the way you do I will never trace the steps for you I will never live the way you do

Lautlos sind all die Menschen Es lebt sich leichter ohne Ziel Ein Ringen ist jeder Tag aufs Neue Und jeder Schritt zuviel Verloren die Anmut deiner Nähe Mein Leben schläft mit dir Und Perlen löschen Worte Das Augenlicht ist grau Du bist immer hier Und ich bei dir Du bist immer hier Nur ich muss bleiben Unsagbar gern wär ich jetzt bei dir Dort unten in der Kälte Die Jahre teilen wir Denn du bist bei mir Und ich bei dir Und das ist alles, was uns bleibt Komm, sprich deine letzten Worte Damit dann endlich Stille herrscht Unendliche Tiefe und doch leer Ich lass dich los, mein teurer Freund

The pride of the moment Lost now in memories The truth of this beauty In vague saturation Embarrassed in silence Incantation implied A true liberation That no-one can fight Please let the rain fall down on me Please let me feel the miracles of life Stranded in peace The joy of a weakness No fear of seclusion A life of its own You love your illusions Without them, you're lost Please let the rain fall down on me Please let me feel the miracles of life Please let the rain wash away all my tears Please let me learn the spell of confusion With endless compulsion Confess your defeat The obvious reason No need for a trial Put an end to this fight Take a rest from your odyssey Let go of your world Find peace here tonight

All the noise I heard outside And all my senses were never right I hesitate and watch you breathe What we need now is so much more than sleep Your frightened look out to the dark I heard some voices they must be here And when I fight to stay awake My mind is open to what they feed You cannot believe the things you see with your own eyes You fail to understand, the choice you made was based on lies Unique indeed a different kind Where did you come from poison breed I must confess my lack of sleep Opens horizons, kills my belief

Keine Zunft vermag zu sagen Warum die Herrscher stets versagen Alte Greise beten leise Kein Mensch hält euren Krieg für weise Revolution Allein die gute Mutter zittert Weil all ihr Wesen Unheil wittert Und draußen hört man Stimmen reden Verloren scheint der alte Segen Es ist zu spät Viel zu spät Es ist zu spät Viel zu spät Es ist zu spät... ... um dir die Kraft zu schenken ... um sich erneut zu wehren ... um sich der Angst zu stellen ... um deinen Feind zu knechten Dies sind die Früchte deines Zorns Und wird ein Mensch die Hand erheben Um sich zu wehren, um zu leben? Wird jemand schrei'n aus voller Kehle Bevor auch ihm man Freiheit stehle? Revolution

This is my color This is my legacy Take what you need And leave me behind This is my offer Take it or leave it End of all games Without me it all remains the same Come here and live my life As if it's yours my friend I know it's hard So hard to understand And yet let me beg you I am tired and weak Let go of my hand I feel no regret The colors of grey... Tell me please Where do you come from? And let me know the price to pay I wish I knew where I belong to How did you find me anyway?

I heard of a man who can see through the heart A fountain of truth as a stranger reveals A sarcastic smile proves his true disrespect His hands so tranquil and his eyes a deep well To fall for your words - as profound as they are - Seems somehow absurd. How foolish to fall for But sympathy is not what I feel for you I know that your talk is as wise as untrue The words of a wise man are not worth a dime His conscience is burdened. His wisdom a crime I forgive what I can, but my will is too strong I won't let you go. You were trapped all along Your temper is curbed and your fire put out I try to form words, but your mind is too loud I fear all this talk and I'm scared of my senses I take a step back and just run for the door

When you're slaved to your perception When you're bound to your ideals When you're blinded by deception When you fail to solve the secrets It is not enough to humiliate me It is not enough to put me back in chains It is not enough to manipulate me It is not enough to hold me back from you Because we read it on every page We take it all for granted It is proven that nothing's proven But I think it is real to you What is this chain for? What am I here for? Where did my pride go? Come let my fight show ...

You find yourself in the benefit of the doubt The prospect of a change both a blessing and a curse These are the consequences that you might have to bear To make it all come true it's just one step to take On days like this, you feel your desires I know that you care and you see what this world is about to unfold Fear not this is not the end of this world Step close to the edge to believe the absurd The wind in your hair is the freedom we share A tear in your eye proves at least that you try This man has lived in grim diversity Uncertain and in doubt, if his choices were ideal A lifetime feeling torn. The king of nowhere never home And now about to find a new philosophy The silence we breathe has the soul of a thief

You left to find a stranger To ask him for advice Whatever he might tell you Look deep into his eyes You beg this man for answers You swear to him an oath That no-one else will find out The secrets spoken here Where have you been, my friend? What have you seen, my dear? What are you scared of? And what has brought you here? Enlightened you come back Insecure and with regret Aware of what you did A new obsession born A man needs to be found With knowledge of the mind Memories must vanish To calm the frightened soul

A torch in your darkness will guide you the way While dozens of others pretend to be free Obscure limitations put the boundaries at stake I know there is more than we can see This is my aggravation A simple cause I come here to flee from you I come here to free my guilt This is my alibi My secret inferno And this is the world I hide My place to recover I'd carry this burden on your behalf Corrupted integrity Inexistent identity So hard to believe What I had to witness What I'm supposed to forget To forgive and forget This is my alibi - Underneath your ruins I'm buried My secret inferno - My endless source of despair And this is the world I hide - A shelter I cannot share My place to recover - So i can return to your world with a cynical smile I swear it is true Invisible scars prove me right I'd be your abettor Please take me with you

You waited here in vain You cannot forgive yourself And the wonders of a lifetime In each and everyone's face Like a ship close to the shore Like an anchor in the deep Like the calm before the storm Like a homeless back at home Would we ever dare to see in it the beauty? Will we ever see it's fine the way it is? Could we make it all undone? Would we dare now to start over We fear the next step Discouraged from the previous one

Abandoned in exile A veil to conceal What on earth could be worse than Not to know what you feel A piece of me still holding on To what is lost And gone You know every liar will burn in my fire And still I keep asking me why do you lie to me? You know every liar will burn in my fire And still I keep asking me what do you want from me? So desperate with grace A disguise to protect Still no words to describe What it is that I feel A piece of me still holding to what is lost And gone Your soul consolation Is the time that goes by And the only companions: The grimaces of life Did it hurt now to end here Or is the pain more distinct Was it worth to give in now Or is that the true sin?

You had to learn This catastrophe is not my fault You fail to believe The things you hear inside your head Raise your voices Sense the danger Warn me of the storm You became the man that we were scared of You commit the deeds that we all need You paint the words that we all dream of You see the signs that we ignore We count the minutes Until we call the mutiny Go strange strangers So they become your alibi Raise your voices Hear the silence Warn me of the storm

I tried to prevent this How I wished that you were wrong Bear with me a few more days You said you foresee things This is for sure not a coincidence This is not fate and it's not luck Maybe it is just meant to be... Give me a moment to wonder Give me a moment to fall apart Give me a reason to keep you Give me a reason for an excuse We breathe the same air, you know We feed on the same thoughts We drink from the same spring And all this is not enough... We hide from the surface We want to be left alone We're searching for reasons But answers do not exist A crime is the thought itself The implementation Is only the consequence Come face the things you did Tell me where you've been Tell me what you've seen Tell me what you've heard Tell me what you felt

I'm well aware that I should know you And yet I feel it's not the case It feels like talking to a stranger I hardly recognize your voice We live a life we never wanted Hard to believe but it came true We never thought that this could happen to us Not to you and not to me And nothing seems to make it any better We live in memories. That's all The dream we had is long forgotten We walk away and don't look back And though we shiver when we sleep at night We have no way of finding back Have we done all that we could have To avoid where we are now? Or have we known what we have done to us And watched the dying process grow? I really never dared to doubt you Neither you nor your words It is so hard to let you go now But still I bid farewell to you And instinct tells us that we're wrong And still our feet keep stumbling on
