I have seen the truth, I've seen it in my dream I have found my voice, but don't know what to say For I have lost my way and no-one's here to find me I loathe my loneliness, I hate the emptiness I'm hanging on a wire Ablaze and set on fire Waiting for the crack to come I snap and let it go I fall Through the darkness About to lose it all I fall Against the odds I played and lost it all Saw the future, now it's gone Only the strong will survive I will try to find the strength inside Only the strong will survive I will not give up, as long as I'm alive I will not give in, as long as I'm alive Only the strong will survive An eternal road where demons go to die Runs through this barren land where my madness lies Have I now lost my mind Am I mute, deaf and blind I scream without a sound I just can't let it out I fall Through the darkness About to lose it all I fall Against the odds I played and lost it all Saw the future, now it's gone Only the strong will survive I will try to find the strength inside Only the strong will survive I will not give up, as long as I'm alive I will not give in, as long as I'm alive Only the strong will survive The future's not bright but it's mine I won't lie, there's no hope in sight but I'll survive I will try to find the strength inside Only the strong will survive I will not give up, as long as I'm alive I will not give in, as long as I'm alive I will not give up, as long as I'm alive Only the strong will survive Only the strong will survive

Is this the promised land The one we were to rule? I see an empty hand I see an empty fool How wicked man can be We never can be free Our eternal wrath Destruction in our path We pray for salvation From a man made machine There's no hope, there's no light There's no love, just a silent scream Lost in a dream Neither beast nor divine That's who we are And that's why we're broken End of the line We are the past We are not the chosen Unguided, divided Waiting for the end We're the last of our kind That's who we are And that's why we're broken This was our passing reign A burning crown of shame There's nothing more to gain There's no-one left to blame And when we close our eyes Another one will rise In hunger and in need Another one will bleed We pray for salvation From a man made machine There's no hope, there's no light There's no love, just a silent scream Lost in a dream Neither beast nor divine That's who we are And that's why we're broken End of the line We are the past We are not the chosen Unguided, divided Waiting for the end We're the last of our kind That's who we are And that's why we're broken Neither beast nor divine That's who we are And that's why we're broken End of the line We are the past We are not the chosen Unguided, divided Waiting for the end We're the last of our kind That's who we are And that's why we're broken End of the line Neither beast nor divine We're the last of our kind Neither beast nor divine That's who we are And that's why we're broken

Breathing silently Holding each other quietly Their life is a dream, a dream they share And soon it's falling Underneath the starlit skies Getting all lost in lovers eyes Singing their song, sharing some wine Their fate is calling Out there in the dark Glowing an eerie single spark Soon a thunderous sound Is shaking the ground Frozen in time They lie Buried alive they are forevermore Frozen in time They died Lying side by side forevermore Frozen in time Fate can be unjust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust This is the end of their tale Now heaven's fading Lying together, heart to heart Not even death tore them apart Forever gone, forever one Forever waiting Out there in the dark Glowing an eerie single spark Soon a thunderous sound Is shaking the ground Frozen in time They lie Buried alive they are forevermore Frozen in time They died Lying side by side forevermore Frozen in time Frozen in time Forever one Buried alive the way they died Frozen in time Frozen in time They lie Buried alive they are forevermore Frozen in time They died Lying side by side forevermore Frozen in time They lie Buried alive they are forevermore Frozen in time forevermore Buried alive the way they died Frozen in time Frozen in time Frozen in time

A silent sigh A prayer from within That reaches no one A frail memory A teardrop on your skin Once shed for someone A desperate cry That hardly can be heard Still echoes inside A lost reverie You once thought you could reach Has now come undone Slowly, gently You can walk on water Across the stream, to the other side Day by day You're finding your desire And the soul that you hide Don't drown in your sorrow When the walls come down You're not alone Face the darkness, find the light Seize the moment, hold on tight Raise your head up, breakaway Know that you don't have to stay Breakaway, breakaway today They'll say you are weak They'll say you are not free But they don't know you It's not who you are It's not what you've become But they cannot see Slowly, gently You can walk on water Across the stream, to the other side Day by day You're finding your desire And the soul that you hide Face the darkness, find the light Seize the moment, hold on tight Raise your head up, breakaway Know that you don't have to stay Breakaway, breakaway today Face the darkness, find the light Seize the moment, hold on tight Raise your head up, breakaway Know that you don't have to stay Breakaway, you can breakaway today

I see the white clouds rolling through the sky And wonder if like them I'll once be free If I will find my wings and learn to fly For every night the voice is calling me In my dream there's a winding road That leads me through the haze to a rusty gate Where I'll find my peace I'm at ease I have been searching for my fate Loneliness tears me apart How did I end up this way I was meant to be something so grand Or so did they say So afraid if I am Just a mortal man Do I have what it takes to go on Am I part of a plan Ride on Straight to the center Ride into the storm Ride on Ride on Ride on through the storm I hear the voice of thunder in the sky And get the power that will set me free I'll find my wings and I will learn to fly Endlessly in eternity I hear the voice of thunder in the sky And get the power that will set me free I see the road ahead, it's calling me I'm endlessly in eternity I have been given a quest I have been called up by name Will my sacrifice lay me to rest Is it all the same All the power I have All I have become Will I be feared or will I be loved For what I have done Ride on Ride on Ride on through the storm I hear the voice of thunder in the sky And get the power that will set me free I'll find my wings and I will learn to fly Endlessly in eternity I hear the voice of thunder in the sky And get the power that will set me free I see the road ahead, it's calling me I'm endlessly in eternity Eternity Ride on Straight to the center Ride into the storm Ride on Ride on Ride on through the storm I hear the voice of thunder in the sky And get the power that will set me free I'll find my wings and I will learn to fly Endlessly in eternity I hear the voice of thunder in the sky And get the power that will set me free I see the road ahead, it's calling me I'm endlessly in eternity I see the road ahead, it's calling me I see the road ahead, it's calling me I'm endlessly in eternity And in my dream I have seen Long and winding road That leads me through the haze to a rusty gate There I find my peace I'm at ease I have been searching for my fate

I am facing the truth I got to change the way I live Can't go on this way The price is too high to pay After the rain I feel the sun See how I run to my destiny Life is a game I got to learn how to play I make my own rules 'Cause now I am free to choose Courage and faith will show me the way See how I run to my destiny Like the Phoenix I rise From the ashes of life I don't need fortune or fame Just some peace of mind Like the Phoenix I fly Leaving the lies behind Future's golden for me There is no one who can stop me now I'm noble and strong I'm walking down the road that I choose Each day is a gift And I know that I can't lose A glorious future's awaiting me See how I run to my destiny Like the Phoenix I rise From the ashes of life I don't need fortune or fame Just some peace of mind Like the Phoenix I fly Leaving the lies behind Future's golden for me There is no one who can stop me now

I've locked myself in silence And kept denying That you're already gone Isolated in the darkness for too long I'm still holding you before You fade into oblivion I can't save you In the end we fall apart Forgive me now No matter how Hard I try, you'll carry on Please be waiting We'll meet again beyond the stars I'm not afraid To embrace the end Time has come to let you go (To oblivion) I‘m tired to fight this sadness on my own I have waited way too long To stand up and move on Your decaying echo haunts me all the time I'm afraid to say the last goodbyes 'Cause you will be forever gone (to oblivion) I can't save you In the end we fall apart Forgive me now No matter how Hard I try, you'll carry on Please be waiting We'll meet again beyond the stars I'm not afraid To embrace the end Time has come to let you go And leave our world behind I still believe You're within me In memories You'll be shining like a star And lightning up the skies I still believe You're within me In memories 'Cause you were my only one I can't save you In the end we fall apart Forgive me now No matter how Hard I try, you'll carry on Please be waiting We'll meet again beyond the stars I'm not afraid To face the end Time has come to let you go Now it's time to let you go To oblivion Now it's time to let you go To oblivion

When I was young and life had only just begun The days were long and bright, so warm and full of light I never knew that one day you would fade away Your colors fade to grey It seems like yesterday Still you're shining in the dark You're still safe within my heart Where my memories lie and I will follow you Wherever you go I am what you made of me Your blood is my blood And your heart is my heart We are what we leave behind An eternal stream You flow through me I fear no more Though you're gone I know we'll meet again I know you're there still somewhere You are waiting You are the mystery that only I can know The gentle winds that blow The glitter on the snow I never speak about you Never say your name It's not that I don't care It's just that I'm not there You're still gone and I'm still here Yet I always feel you near Wherever I go I am what you made of me Your blood is my blood And your heart is my heart We are what we leave behind An eternal stream You flow through me I fear no more Though you're gone I know we'll meet again I know you're there still somewhere You are waiting Still you're shining in the dark You're still safe within my heart Wherever you are I am what you made of me Your blood is my blood And your heart is my heart We are what we leave behind An eternal stream You flow through me I am what you made of me Your blood is my blood And your heart is my heart We are what we leave behind An eternal stream You flow through me I fear no more Though you're gone I know we'll meet again I know you're there still somewhere You are waiting

I’m deep in my sorrow and feeling down And waiting for rapture to come around With nothing to lose I’m about to clear my mind So many times I have dealt with my pain And now it is driving me almost insane I had a future but now it is left far behind Then out of the corner comes a light Taking my breath, divine and bright Changing my world, left me adrift so silently I have tried to comprehend I’ve hidden my pride and made amends But all I had was misery to see When I’m close to her, it’s so intense I hold her tight It makes no sense Cause still she is a mystery to me Ain’t taking it for granted, what we’ve got But I’m willing to give it my best shot Avoiding the darkest whispers from my past I’ve got no regrets, I’ve got no remorse This is my life and I’ve chosen my course I’m taking the challenge and I know it’s gonna last Then out of the corner comes a light Taking my breath, divine and bright Changing my world, left me adrift so silently I have tried to comprehend I’ve hidden my pride and made amends But all I had was misery to see When I’m close to her, it’s so intense I hold her tight It makes no sense Cause still she is a mystery to me I have tried to comprehend I’ve hidden my pride and made amends Cause still she is a mystery to me I have tried to comprehend I’ve hidden my pride and made amends But all I had was misery to see When I’m close to her, it’s so intense I hold her tight It makes no sense Cause still she is a mystery to me A mystery to me A mystery to me A mystery to me

I have seen the future of mankind The wisdom of my prophecies you'll find Follow the truth and be careful Are we the last? Hundred years has passed what have we done Inconceivable damage under the sun I think it's too late to change the man We are the last The world keeps turning while People yearn for more Mother nature is crying for change The time will come when we All must pay for what we have done Are you prepared for that? As we are reaching the end Of the century there's Message we can send Be strong and bold and never Lose your mind cause we are the last The world keeps turning while People yearn for more Mother nature is crying for change The time will come when we All must pay for what we have done Are you prepared for that? Signs of the end I see Let them hear my voice In every corner of the world Take heed of the warnings that I give I have seen the Southern Cross forming in the sky Woooah! "There shall be heard in the air the noise of weapons and in the same year the divines shall be enemies. They shall unjustly put down the holy laws and by thunder and war, true believers shall die" - Nostradamus: Century I V:43- "For forty years the rainbow shall not appear For forty years it shall be seen every day The parched earth shall wax drier every day And a great flood when it shall appear" - Nostradamus: Century I:17 After us the road goes on forever Many changes lie along the path That's the price we pay for our selfishness We are headed for the end "From the skies shall come the powerful kind Before and after the Mars reigns at will Not far from the great age of Millenium Buried ones shall come out of their graves" - Nostradamus: Century X:72,74 When the comet tears out the sky You and I must die After all this the time will come for the chosen ones To rise from their graves to be free again The beast is gone forever There's no more pain Instead so many things for us to attain The sun is shining brightly after the rain The land is green and full of life again The sorrows wiped away now It's time to smile And learn from the past Together we will try "Twenty years of reign of the Moon having past Seven thousand years another Shall hold his monarchy When the sun shall resume his days past Then is fulfilled and ends my prophecy" - Nostradamus: Century I:48

Again, I see you standing there watching me Your gaze, those eyes are tantalizing openly Inviting me to get close to you Can't help myself There's fascination in the air I try to fight this strong sensation But there's no chance to escape from this temptation Feels like I've known you before Repeating phrases But I yearn for something more I know I can't stay By your side forever But I know I won't forget Your beauty My black diamond I know I can't stay By your side forever But I know I won't forget Your beauty My black diamond I know I can't stay By your side forever But I know I won't forget Your beauty My black diamond I can't forget But I can't stay By your side

I feel the wind in my hair And it's whispering, telling me things Of the storm that is gathering here Full of power I'm spreading my wings Now I'm leaving my worries behind Feel the freedom of body and mind I have started my journey I'm drifting away with the wind, I go I am hunting high and low Diving from the sky above Looking for more and more once again I'm hunting high and low Sometimes I may win, sometimes I'll lose Its just a game that I play After the storm there's a calm Through the clouds shines the ray of the sun I am carried from all of my harm There is no one that I can't outrun Now I'm leaving my worries behind Feel the freedom of body and mind I have started my journey I'm drifting away with the wind, I go I am hunting high and low Diving from the sky above Looking for more and more once again I'm hunting high and low Sometimes I may win, sometimes I'll lose Its just a game that I play I am hunting high and low Diving from the sky above Looking for more and more once again I'm hunting high and low Sometimes I may win, sometimes I'll lose Its just a game that I play I am hunting high and low Diving from the sky above Looking for more and more once again I'm hunting high and low Sometimes I may win, sometimes I'll lose Its just a game that I play (fading out)
