I’m waiting for a train To take away the pain and ease my mind I hear the tracks squeal It makes me want to scream and let the world know how I feel (One way journey, no need for a seat) I’m beat, I won’t be coming back (And what I’m learning, this life will be turning) Around at the end of the tracks Freedom, the life of a drifter Who know, if I’ll ever find home When it’s time to go I’m already there I’m never scared, I’m living one day at a time Freedom is my crime Another hazy night Nothing is in sight, no hope in the air Would I leave behind All that’s on my mind, would I forget, would I dare (One way journey, no need for a seat) I’m beat, I won’t be coming back (And what I’m learning, this life will be turning) Around at the end of the tracks Freedom, the life of a drifter Who know, if I’ll ever find home When it’s time to go I’m already there I’m never scared, I’m living one day at a time Freedom is my crime The sun ain’t burning the skies aren’t blue For me it’s a sign to move on (And what I hear has made it so clear) I’m heading towards the new dawn Freedom, the life of a drifter Who know, if I’ll ever find home When it’s time to go I’m already there I’m never scared, I’m living one day at a time Freedom is my crime

Reckless wheel of time, we follow how it flies by We still keep believing in wide and comforting lies... When it’s our turn, together we stay stronger We lay still and silent and watch how hours burns... for eternity... You carry me away, tomorrow we’re unbreakable I hold my breath and wait, this moment is unbreakable I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul You make me whole I want to live this second forever Always together, forevermore I hold my breath and wait Reckless wheel of life, we see how years keep flying by I never really cared until I opened my eyes... The final day awaits, and the firestorms getting closer Under falling stars we will seal our fate... for eternity... You carry me away, tomorrow we’re unbreakable I hold my breath and wait, this moment is unbreakable I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul You make me whole I want to live this second forever Always together, forevermore I hold my breath and wait till the end, until my role We’re unbreakable You carry me away, tomorrow we’re unbreakable I hold my breath and wait, this moment is unbreakable I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul You make me whole I want to live this second forever Always together, forevermore We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore I hold my breath and wait till the end, until my role We’re unbreakable...

This is my way, these are my rules These are my rhymes, this is my song Don’t take me for some bloody fool For I still dream, you can’t hurt me, I’m strong (You can try to bring me down, to keep me down) I will rise and I’ll be fighting back (You can try to bring me down, to keep me down) There’s no way you can break my will (You can try to bring me down, to keep me down) My dreams are guiding my every step I have a destiny to fulfill No one can bring me down I will defend my beliefs And I will stand my ground I need to see where it leads No one can bring me down I will defend my beliefs And I will stand my ground No one can bring me down (You can try to bring me down, to keep me down) I will rise and I’ll be fighting back (You can try to bring me down, to keep me down) There’s no way you can break my will (You can try to bring me down, to keep me down) My dreams are guiding my every step I have a destiny to fulfill No one can bring me down I will defend my beliefs And I will stand my ground I need to see where it leads No one can bring me down I will defend my beliefs And I will stand my ground No one can bring me down And I will stand my ground No one can bring me down

What I feel inside my mind Is driving me insane It's so hard to explain What lies behind it all, what goes around So I'm twisting here within loneliness And all the pain inside now Don't matter anyhow There's something in the air Something isn't there Something that I had just yesterday Every time I try Reaching for the sky Something's coming up and blocks my way And I know that I just need To walk away from this There's something in the air Something isn't there The storm rages on I'm waiting for my halcyon days I will try to avoid it all But they try to pull me back If I try will I fall off this track I don't care ‘cause I'm free I'm still twisting here within loneliness And all the pain inside now... Don't matter anyhow There's something in the air...

Black day is dawning All prayers unanswered, laid to rest If there’s a god he ain’t here now In daunting darkness we will march Towards the end with desperate hearts Too tired to hope, too scared to dream Let innocence fade, make no sound Let blood that we’ll shed stain the ground No turning back now, the orders are clear It’s time to attack, let the shadows appear Heeding the call, brave, standing tall Relentless and ready to die There’s fear in the wind, there is death in the air Thousands of souls screaming out in despair Falling for honor, dying for freedom Making the last sacrifice... Rising higher flames will burn A mournful choir of souls that yearn Red rain is falling Baptized in blood and sin we see Everyone was someone’s son A soldier fighting for someone Just a man defending what he believes in If we found out that we were betrayed Misguided and fallen from grace No turning back now, the orders are clear It’s time to attack, let the shadows appear Heeding the call, brave, standing tall Relentless and ready to die There’s fear in the wind, there is death in the air Thousands of souls screaming out in despair Falling for honor, dying for freedom Making the last sacrifice... Rising higher flames will burn A mournful choir of souls that yearn Let innocence fade, make no sound Let blood that we’ll shed stain the ground No turning back now, the orders are clear It’s time to attack, let the shadows appear Heeding the call, brave, standing tall Relentless and ready to die There’s fear in the wind, there is death in the air Thousands of souls screaming out in despair Falling for honor, dying for freedom Making the last sacrifice... Rising higher flames will burn A mournful choir of souls that yearn

When the day turned into night When the stars run out of light Will you be there to sing my song? I call your name To maybe shield the flame ‘Cause the night is dark and long (Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh...) In the kingdom of the visible In the kingdom of the sun Was a man who saw the years go by He was always on the run And the clock ticks fast for everyone Father time wins every race And the kingdom of the fading sun It’ll pass without a trace Our castles in the air We build them in despair But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer Our castles in the air We build them in despair But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere (Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh...) There’s a small black hole inside my heart And it’s just the size of you And the road goes on forevermore And we will turn to dust Holding on to hope against the hope While the silence rages on We would like to try to shield the flame While we climb a burning rope Our castles in the air We build them in despair But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer Our castles in the air We build them in despair But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere Our castles in the air We build them in despair But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer Our castles in the air We build them in despair But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere Our castles in the air We build them in despair But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer Our castles in the air We build them in despair But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere (Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh...) When the day turned into night When the stars run out of light Will you be there to sing my song? I call your name To maybe shield the flame ‘Cause the night is dark and long

You wanna go to heaven but you never want to die A silent scream for freedom turn to Fire turn to water turn to Stone’s the same, the sky’s the same, it doesn’t roll away The other side where life goes on is Close and yet you know it’s just a lie But you’re stronger than they are Feel the wind in your hair And you’re faster than they are And it feels that you’re lighter than air When you’re drawn to the ground by the dragons Would you raise up your head, would you gaze at the sky When you’re drawn to the ground by the dragons Would you raise up your head, would you cry And all the wicked prisons that they built inside your mind And all the wicked borders that unite us, that divide us, until Death ever different will embrace us in the end But roll away the stone, and hear the Wind will whisper out your name But you’re stronger than they are Feel the wind in your hair And you’re faster than they are And it feels that you’re lighter than air When you’re drawn to the ground by the dragons Would you raise up your head, would you gaze at the sky When you’re drawn to the ground by the dragons Would you raise up your head, would you cry

Take all that I have left Take everything I have spared for you Tear down all my veils Tear down ‘til you see my naked core Burn down my Eden Burn down all that I had built for you Save me – it is all that I have Spare me – or we all will be damned Save me, save me, save me, save me! One must fall and stay in the shadow There’s no thrall, no hope, no salvation One must fall under the black rainbow Fight no more and maybe there is a better day! But in the end no one will be saved Bring down the rain on us Bring it down so we can drown in the flood Harvest the seeds I’ve sown Harvest until you have drained my blood Save me – what are you fighting for? Spare me – or there’s no tomorrow Save me – your reign is no more! Save me, save me, save me, save me! One must fall and stay in the shadow There’s no thrall, no hope, no salvation One must fall under the black rainbow Fight no more and maybe there is a better day! But in the end no one will be saved One must fall and stay in the shadow There’s no thrall, no hope, no salvation One must fall under the black rainbow Fight no more and maybe there is a better day! But in the end no one, no one, no one will be saved

Once upon a time I was the scribe of all my dreams I’ve seen the years turn into dust, now feel the rust in me I’ve walked the shores of Avalon, I’ve seen the seasons change I’ve laughed and cried, I’ve lived and died, but only on the page Now all I have, all I am All I ever was is here, on the page It’s all the same, it never mattered anyway It’s all a lie so let it burn... All empty words and all rhymes will fade As the light of last candle flickers away If the story is over, this chapter my last Let it be my best one, let it be my own (Ah...) I hope it’s not too late to learn to live and learn to love I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark For I never drew the sword from stone, there’s no Helen in my Troy I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void Come night, test my will, test my soul Test my faith and test my heart, torn apart Make me strong, make me whole again And guide through the dark ‘til the morning comes All empty words and all rhymes will fade As the light of last candle flickers away If the story is over, this chapter my last Let it be my best one, let it be my own (Ah...) All empty words and all rhymes will fade As the light of last candle flickers away If the story is over, this chapter my last Let it be my best one, let it be my own All empty words and all rhymes will fade As the light of last candle flickers away If the story is over, this chapter my last Let it be my best one, let it be my own...

The night turns to dawn The city’s left behind Those who’ve been blind they will be saved White stripes on the road they’re guiding my way Reciting my prayers the road is paved Through all the years I’ve carried the flame In the darkest nights as the lightning strikes I’m bringing hope to those who walk in the shadows As I drive alone my mission is unknown Will it be revealed for me ‘cause now I’m calling out for Power, streaming through me I will let out the angel or the beast This power, will make you see As the lightning strikes your pain will be released Free me, that’s what I hear you Screaming, in misery Free me, from this pain while Screaming, kneel before mighty Power (oh...), my power (oh...) This power (oh...), my power (oh...) Calling out for Power, streaming through me I will let out the angel or the beast This power – will make you see As the lightning strikes your pain will be released This power, streaming through me I will let out the angel or the beast This power, will make you see As the lightning strikes your pain will be released Free me, that’s what I hear you Screaming, in misery Free me, from this pain while Screaming, kneel before mighty Power (oh...), my power (oh...) This power (oh...), my power (oh...) Mighty power... (oh...) This power... (oh...) My power... (oh...) My power... (oh...) (Oh... oh... oh...) (Oh...)
