OPVS NOIR Vol. 2

I can hear them call it out on the streets The sound of hate to their marching feet The gardens of gold have died without peace While the pure warm-hearted souls are sound asleep I feel there is no one to trust A cold wind of change made love rust I fear the night's unfurled Born in a cold worn world Coming from hopeful days Herald the fall from grace The fall from grace I can see their lies feeding their fire The heat of hate in their blind desirе The dreams we oncе held have crumbled to dirt From a broken yesterday to a future hurt I feel there is no one to trust A cold wind of change made love rust I fear the night's unfurled Born in a cold worn world Coming from hopeful days Herald the fall from grace The fall from grace The towers crumbling down Built on the backs of the lost Built on the backs of the drowned Backs built to break There goes our last piece of hope It has been stolen and sold And in this darkening maze Is this our fall from grace? Still they stand in hollow pride While love and mercy fade and die I know there is no one to trust I fear the night's unfurled Born in a cold worn world Coming from hopeful days Herald the fall from grace Herald the fall from Herald the fall from grace The fall from grace

Through days of pain and fields of fire Your destiny still my desire My final drop of blood I'd spill For your salvation I would kill Your wish is now my will In the shadows where I’m free In the ruins, stand with me Would you walk with me through hell? In a world of hollow hope (Never let me go) Would you walk with me through hell? In this battle, side by side Would you walk with me through hell? Forever yours Forever mine Above the grief we leave behind In your silent cries I see you, I see your face Each step an ancient tale, so gravе Each breath a promise meant to savе In the ruins, stand with me In the shadows where I'm free Would you walk with me through hell? In a world of hollow hope (Never let me go) Would you walk with me through hell? In this battle, side by side Would you walk with me through hell? Walk with me through hell Walk with me through– Nothing's gone, lost in vain In this war we call life game You and I enduring fire Bound by one desire Would you walk with me through hell? In a world of hollow hope (Never let me go) Would you walk with me through hell? In this battle, side by side Would you walk with me through hell? And in the end we walk as one Throughout the sorrow’s gate forever bound And in the end we never drown Would you walk with me through hell?

Waking up to a brand-new day Still so much unsaid to say For a moment we remain Before we leave this world behind In the shadows passing by Chasing dreams in the neon lights Crossing my mind one last time Together we've had it all There goes all the sadness When you are here Right here with me And I feel this gladness When you are near All is clear to me, but One of us will be next One of us, one of us One of us will be next (Woah) One of us will close their eyes Forever leave this world behind One of us, one of us is next to die Sat together one last time Held your hand when you closed your eyes Even now that you are gone Forever we will hold on There goes all the sadness (Sadness) When you are here (When you're here) Right here (Right here) with me And I feel this gladness When you are near All is clear to me, but One of us will be next One of us, one of us One of us will be next (Woah) One of us will close their eyes Forever leave this world behind One of us, one of us is next to die Life's a stage, let's make some noise Turn it up to fill this void Feel the rush when we raise our voice Every second counts, this is what it's about And I feel this gladness When you are near All is clear to me, but One of us will be next One of us, one of us One of us will be next (Woah) One of us will close their eyes Forever leave this world behind One of us, one of us is next to die One of us, one of us (Woah) One of us, one of us (Woah) One of us, one of us is next to die (Next to die) One of us, one of us (Woah) One of us, one of us (Woah) One of us, one of us is next to die (Next to die) One of us One of us One of us

We could be wrong We could be right Everybody's heard of a place beyond Where the spirits rise and the soul is strong And the stars will start your countdown Then you find yourself inside those walls And the cold truth kills, you've lost it all The desire for the dream to work won't heal the hurt Oh, there's no freedom Oh, please believe me Oh, the walls of Eden No, we won't, we can't give up Tearing down the walls of Eden Somewhere, somewhere The walls of Eden Deep in paradise there are tortured minds Everyone laments what they left behind See their hearts as they start the meltdown Imprisoned in a myth of eternal bliss Smashing at the walls with an open wrist, with a broken fist Still the fire, the fire burns in everyone Oh, the walls of Eden No we won't, we can't give up Tearing down the walls of Eden Somewhere, somewhere The walls of Eden Oh, but all the walls are built around your captive heart Break them down, it's there within the grief eternal Oh, will someone free me? Oh, the walls of Eden No we won't, we can't give up Tearing down the walls of Eden Somewhere, somewhere Oh, the walls of Eden No we won't, we can't give up Tearing down the walls of Eden Somewhere, somewhere Somehow, some day Sometime, some place With you

Deep within the realms of space Oblivion awaits For all your fatal beauty But who cries for you In this void of solitude? Go (Leave no trace) Go (The last star) Far out there in the cold (The last star) Afar, so lone and old (The last star) Far out there in the cold (The last star) Afar, so lone and old You are the last star Come the midst of nothingness The only matter left Of all that life had hoped for Will fade on this day One final victim of fate (The last star) Far out there in the cold (The last star) Afar, so lone and old You are the last star No tomorrow Nothing left today (The last star) A zillion years have passed (The last star) You know there's hope at last (The last star) Your light fades in a bolt (The last star) Tonight you die alone (The last star) Far out there in the cold (The last star) Afar, so lone and old You are the last star You are the last star The last

Here we are the makers We are the ones at fault for this imagery Here we are the failures We build up one by one, wreck our proximity Longing for more We're alone, oh oh The same to the core But we live in disparity No reason to believe That we won't end in grief This is a war What have we become (This is a war) What have we become Now we pull the trigger We aim at our own kind far too passionately Why would we always direct our praise At fear instilled by this savagery Longing for more We're alone, oh oh The same to the core But we live in disparity No reason to believe That we won't end in grief This is a war What have we become (This is a war) What have we become What have we become (Our hearts like strangers) What have we become (What have we become) Our hearts like strangers (What have we become) What have we become (Our hearts like strangers) What have we become

Her home is the frost, her name's the cold Her heart sealed and hidden deep under the snow She longs for a love she'll never hold Still, through the whiteout, I'm searching below Yet I can't find her here Sunlight sinks low, its fire wanes I cannot find her, here in the grey Until mother nightfall must bring the dark I'll wander bound to the mark Of winter's dying heart The stars grow so dim, the cold draws near The earth lies so quiet, not a sound to be found I feel her ghost, but she's not here Where life had a reason, when she was around Moonlight hangs low, its glow is pale I still cannot find her, no hope prevails In this unforgiving and ruthless dark I'll wander bound to the mark Of winter's dying heart I'd cross the ice, I'd walk through pain To find you lost, to keep you safe Not even shadows haunt this vast place Only silence remains When even memories fade away Morning creeps in, but dark remains I couldn't find her, my heart in a strain In shadows of daybreak, last memories spark I'll still wander bound to the mark Of winter's dying heart Of winter's dying heart

I woke up in the land of broken dreams How did we lose the trust in what we had? I don't recall anything we cannot be Don't you see that we might have something left? Just a spark in the pyre A drop in the wide sea Show me your scars, I show you mine Tell me your fears, take all the time you need Speak from the scar, not from the wound If we stay still we will be doomed Show me your scars, I show you mine Hurt by the thought of your despair Won't you let me be thе one to hold you close Not a thing in this world does comparе To the one I have always loved the most Just a spark in the pyre A drop in the wide sea Show me your scars, I show you mine Tell me your fears, take all the time you need Speak from the scar, not from the wound If we stay still we will be doomed Show me your scars, I show you mine Show me your scars, I show you mine I want to thank you for your time Show me your scars, I show you mine Tell me your fears, take all the time you need Speak from the scar, not from the wound If we stay still we will be doomed Show me your scars, I show you mine

Lonely nights, shadows cast In this world I feel so lost In my heart a haunting cry Please break the silence, let it die Whispers echo, voices fade When I leave the dark, I'm afraid In the silence I suffocate Oh, give me your guidance before it's too late Please break the silence Let me breathe again Oh, please break the silence You can end this hell Down in this hollow I am bound to fall So please break the silence Break down your walls Please break the silence Are you alive? Are you afraid? Do you fall asleep at night? Are you okay? I'll be waiting, please let me know Should I lose myself in hope or let you go? (I don't know) In the silence I suffocate Oh, give me your guidance before it's too late Please break the silence Let me breathe again Oh, please break the silence You can end this hell Down in this hollow I am bound to fall So please break the silence Break down your walls Let it die I am suffocating I'm begging you (Here in this hell) I'm begging you (All hope seems gone) I'm begging you (Break down your walls) For just one sign of life Let me breathe again You can end this hell Please break the silence Here in this hell All hope seems gone Break down your walls Please break the silence Here in this hell All hope seems gone Break down your walls Please break the silence Please break the silence

This road's been cursed We're haunting it and in a while I I fear the worst Tame monsters grew to be wild Silence lingers unbroken Endings waiting unspoken Branches twist into the sky I lay down and cry In between light and shadow Face your triggers 'til they have no power Guillotine wounds are shallow That silver sparkles in the golden hour I'm getting lost in the dark hedges I'm getting cut on your sharp edges Caught in the darkness, fallen in the fray Sharp edges Bleeding in silеnce every night and day Sharp еdges In silent treatment I've been drowning for a while You tried to hurt me Kill this love while I held out and smiled When I was lost you walked ahead A stillborn future, fear and dread Are we sentenced to fade? First light's too late I'm getting lost in the dark hedges I'm getting cut on your sharp edges Lost in the void where bygone shadows play Sharp edges Haunted by whispers that won't go away Now I'm the ghost on this road left untravelled Almost in love again but it unravelled Together gets so lonely The blade, it fell too slowly I'm getting lost in the dark hedges I'm getting cut on your sharp edges Trapped in despair beneath the blood moon's gleam Sharp edges Beseeched by echoes of a shattered dream Sharp edges In between light and shadow Face your triggers 'til they have no power Guillotine wounds are shallow That silver sparkles in the golden hour
