Album • 2004
Climbing walls of an endless circle Walking paths you never heard of Struggling in an endless battle Searching far for a higher purpose Drowning in betrayal’s river The freezing cold will make you shiver Join the world of greater learning Crown me king and be my servants Misled by beauty One you rarely find So loving and friendly It’s one of a kind Their arms wide open Willing to take me in No doubts in choosing A world free from sin All the dreams I had All my future wishes Put aside for a greater journey All the things I planned Left my friends so coldly Put aside for a Higher… Misled by beauty One you rarely find So loving and friendly It’s one of a kind A single army A united “one” A touch of blessing Which cannot be undone Drowning in betrayal’s river The freezing cold will make you shiver Join the world of greater learning Crown me king and be my servants All the dreams I had All my future wishes Put aside for a greater journey All the things I planned Left my friends so coldly Put aside for a Higher purpose All the dreams I had All my future wishes Put aside for a greater journey All the things I planned Left my friends so coldly Put aside for a higher All the dreams I had All my future wishes Put aside for a greater journey All the things I planned Left my friends so coldly Put aside for a higher purpose

– Obey my voice, and I will be your God Show your soul for birth of freedom Leave the cold to share our vision Will you follow me? Will you walk with me? We’ll hold your heart if it bleeds (Let me be your hand of guidance) (No more solitude) (No more independence) (If God weeps he weeps through me) (And if God hurts it hurts in me) I am... light to cast away shadows The Spirit, Holy Ghost and even Jesus (God walking earth, Ambassador) Ambassador Scattering all dark thoughts wandering I shatter all doubts surfacing This is my rescue and salvation Undivided and blessed vision I am... light to cast away shadows The Spirit, Holy Ghost and even Jesus (God walking earth, Ambassador) God walking earth, Ambassador Light to cast away shadows The Spirit, Holy Ghost and even Jesus God walking earth... (God walking earth, Ambassador) Ambassador – Empty, countless, wounded and weak. I am without strength. – Where’s the Holy Ghost you promised me? – Hallelujah. – Holy God. I am... light to cast away shadows The Spirit, Holy Ghost and even Jesus (God walking earth, Ambassador) Ambassador, Ambassador Light to cast away shadows The Spirit, Holy Ghost and even Jesus (God walking earth, Ambassador) God walking earth Ambassador!

So high on believing No seeing your changing I carry the weight and I’m weary We’re wounded severely Despite of your vision You claim seeing so clearly Can’t respect your decision In the wake of the weary Your angels are calling The aim is rewarding Through ashes and falling So helpless and withering (Ah...) we’re wounded severely (ah...) Despite of your treason And a future I’m fearing I try to run when the walls come down Try to hide from the feelings I’m fearing but still (Can’t respect your decision) Can’t respect your decision (We’re wounded severely) (Should see it so clearly) (And I can’t take it no more) (A life in a lie where I scream and I cry) (But she won’t lie no more...) Your angels are calling The aim is rewarding Through ashes and falling So helpless and withering (Ah...) – If you obeyed in the power of the Holy Ghost ???? blood of Jesus as your only miracle. We have a whole world full of people who don’t know Jesus and don’t understand on the judgment being ???? for this peace. It’s also ???? in my sight. Your angels are calling The aim is rewarding Through ashes and falling (So helpless and withering) (Ah...) we’re wounded severely (Ah...) so helpless and withering (Ah...) we’re wounded severely (Ah...) so helpless and withering

Relentless I’m speechless I’m fooled by my inner weakness Enticing, inspiring Your words were so convincing Delightful, but soulless Claimed harmless wishes seems less Exciting, just frightening No more downing days Only whispers of darkened ways Forever falling tears (forever falling) No more screams in vain No more dreams put to shame It’s only me, only me, yeah... Defenseless and smiling Her innocence is shining His own flesh and own blood His words were so convincing Delightful, so beautiful Can’t stop what he’s been told She’s three years old No more downing days Only whispers of darkened ways Forever falling tears (forever falling) No more screams in vain No more dreams put to shame It’s only me who’s forever falling, sleepwalking, desperate, calling Sleepwalking, forever falling, sleepwalking, desperate, calling No more dawning days Only whispers of darkened ways Forever falling tears Lands in the hands of somber fate No more downing days Only whispers of darkened ways Forever falling tears No more downing days... No more dawning days No more screams in vain No more feeling pain No more dawning days No more feeling pain Forever... Forever... (Forever, forever) (Forever and never) (Forever, forever)

Leave the lie you got to find a way And ask yourself why and give yourself a reason to stay Leave the lie I am begging in vain We’re all left to fight with why You’re not the same Left behind we are stranded not free In silence I cry what went wrong was it me Led to believe in a truth that was false Truth built on greed and the faith of the weak Waking up blind and blind you must be So stupid of me to believe in your hypocrisy Gave it all up for life in a dream So foolish of me to not stop your infidelity (Unfaithful...) (Unfaithful...) (Unfaithful to life...) (Unfaithful to life...) Left behind we are stranded not free In silence I cry what went wrong was it me Led to believe in a truth that was false Truth built on greed and the faith of the weak Waking up blind and blind you must be So stupid of me to believe in your hypocrisy Gave it all up for life in a dream So foolish of me to not stop your infidelity (Unfaithful...)

Time for a breather let it all sink in A pause from the deceiver and to reach deep within I close my eyes if only for a second To let my courage rise All I need is one more reason To fail you as you failed me Waiting for the waves to break Hoping for the tide to change Embracing the awaiting aim Believing more than ever Believing more than ever I’ve tried too many times to leave you Just as many times as I’ve cried to see you Every road has its end and my ends here And so does my faith Waiting for the waves to break Hoping for the tide to change Embracing the awaiting aim Believing more than ever Believing more than ever Believing more than ever

Her gentle hand in his Revelation serves as bliss They walk away from sunshine Led to believe the lie His lust for untouched youth A well-kept secret sealed His every night confession Reveals the most profane obsession Their trust is won and fate is conquered The essence of conviction (Why me?) I did no wrong I did not know (You lied to me) I meant no harm And I am blaming me Hand in hand down the altar aisle Her father’s presence brings her to a smile A grand welcome from the assembled crowd Greeted as the “circle’s” first child Undressed to nothing and held to the sky Her smile is gone and she starts to cry Desperately seeking her father’s eyes But he sees nothing, he’s blind... – A little baby is born... hallelujah! This little baby is going to be the Messiah! He’s going to take away the power of sin. God plants a cross right on the doorstep to the throne of Satan. No longer can he hold you in guilt, condemnation, and fear! He has no power to do that anymore. And if you’re under condemnation and fear, then go to the blood, confess and say, “Devil, you can’t condemn me anymore, I’m not a condemned man, I’m a free man.” We have to kill the baby! (Why me?) I did no wrong I did not know (You lied to me) I meant no harm And I am blaming me (Why me?) You lied to me... You lied to me... You lied to me... ...

In depths so deep I can’t believe Confusion conquers and frustration wins Into where light does not reach This is where pain and sorrow meets Into denial Baptized into a liar Would you? Give me the power Would you? Could you? Caught in a world where angels weep Where hatred battles greed and frustration wins Chained to a world where all good sleep This is where pain and sorrow meets Into denial Baptized into a liar Would you? Give me the power Could you? Would you? I’m doubting still denying The truth was more than shocking I’m doubting I’m hiding, hiding I’m running knowing they’re watching I’m still in disbelief from what I’ve seen Where I’m hiding (...hiding...) hiding (Hide... run...) (Hide... run...) Into denial Baptized into a liar Would you? Give me the power Could you? Would you? Could you? Would you? I say Could you? Would you? I say Could you? Would you? Could you? Would you? Could you? Would you? Could you? Would you?

In a moment of clarity It all became crystal And now I try to find someone to heal me I’m broken Through the mist in a dream where I show you Through the rain and the dark that holds you Heal me, I’m broken Time to discover what lies hidden in the sand And time for renewal and to be cleansed by the hand To heal me, relieve me, heal me Release me while I’m still breathing And when it all came to clarity There was no perfection Dreams were shattered Hope was washed away Heal me Through the mist in a dream where I show you Through the rain and the dark that holds you Heal me, I’m broken – If you’re one of those people who believe that you cannot be free from the bondage of sin... I’m not talking about perfection, but do not believe that you can ever be free, that there will always be bondage in your life, I have nothing more to say to you. This message from now on will mean nothing to you... Time to start over (start over) I’m given a new chance (I’m given) And time to discover (discover) There were no treasures in the sand To heal me, relieve me, heal me Release me while I’m still breathing

Lord, if you don't help me, I can't get through this. I can't. Lord, I'm too old for games... foolishness And I'm tired of rhetoric. Meaningless rhetoric. It never changes things. Lord... please help me. Help me... I was feeling God's PAIN and I've never had anything that's been any worth to God in my 50 years that wasn't born in agony. Never. Never. Dead, empty. And I know that sermons won't do it. I know that revelation won't do it. Covenant won't do it. I know now... Oh my God do I know it. Until I'm in agony. Until I have been anguished over it. I'm preaching sermons... Oh God... I broke down and I wept and I mourned. Does that matter to you at all? I can't handle this. I can barely make it into this. Little by little you're losing the love of God... the love of Christ... People I know of that were my friends and I see them they go one by one. Some were my closest friends. You're changing. You know what you were. You're changing. Little by little something's happening to you. Would it bring you to your knees? That's all the Devil wants to do Get the fight out of you and kill it. So you won't labor in prayer anymore. You won't weep before God anymore. GO TO HELL! No weeping? Not a word of prayer? It's all ruined. No laughing. This is life and death. When the walls go down, and ruin sets in... Where are the tears? Where's the mourning? Where's the confessing? Love of Christ.. the agony of God's heart... We have sinned.

I painted a picture of you Your soul was red and your mind was blue Destiny laid a light on my creation This dream I had made a slave of my passion Reality was always too far away And we were happy until it came too close one day Suddenly I faced the truth of my dream My love had only been a picture, a scene I suppose I needed to believe Didn't want to see you had never been close to me But I'm sorry This illusion has caused you a lot of pain And I have no solution I'll try to never be back again I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I painted a picture of you My dream was a lie and the lie became truth Reality held his breath too long It's disgusting what dreams can do But I'm sorry This illusion has caused you a lot of pain And I have no solution I'll try to never be back again I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry

One step at a time Small progress seems futile But it's as valuable as life I'm engaged to longing With sorrow as the ring Controlling me, denying me My every morning is in every way The beginning of a recreation day The beginning of a recreation... Time heals, but still the mourning reigns I still breath when the loss reminds me again I am here Life is fear And sorrow's all I know Am I in debt cause so it seems But what I owe I don't know Devoured by guilt and cursed beyond control My every morning is in every way The beginning of a recreation day The beginning of a recreation... (x 2) (Solo : Englund/Danhage) My every morning is in every way The beginning of a recreation day The beginning of a recreation... (x 2)

I've been searching for so long For someone to lead the way And I've been searching for someone Someone to ease the pain And I've been searching for someone Anyone to help me cure my shame Madness caught another victim And the victim's name is blame What are my options? When the road I'm walking ends What are my options? When all my ambitions fails The words you now are reading Are meant for your eyes only I hoped for strength but now I'm leaving Cause I fear my feelings And to not do you justice Is too much for me to bare And as courage is my weakness I choose the cowards path What are my options? When the road that I'm walking ends? And what are my options? When the last ship of hope have sailed What are my options? When the road that I'm walking ends So what are my options? When my words are all that remains
