The Ember Eye Part II: The Portal Of Truth
Like the drowning young soldier I stand at the end of my rope It’s like life is a burden for me, though I try every day I found that this world can be cruel so tonight, I will give up the fight I hope there’s a heaven, there must be a light at the end of the tunnel Nevermind that, cause into the fire I’ll go I hope I remember my name When I Turn to the Light If I don't I’ll succumb to the night Heedless fires, burning in me Now I know that tonight is the time when I Turn to the Light What I learned from a life left behind Reaching higher, now I can see That I’m lost like a fire that burns in the dead of night Caught in this turmoil by kings of the past, in a life far away Beaten and struck down, instructed to live as they say, but not as they do I was serving the masters, enslaved to my grave, now life finds a way Strange that my wish would come true at my final hour, at the end of my life But nevermind that, all their sins will remain I hope I remember my name When I Turn to the Light If I don't I’ll succumb to the night Heedless fires, burning in me Now I know that tonight is the time when I Turn to the Light What I learned from a life left behind Reaching higher, now I can see That I’m lost like a fire that burns in the dead of night I’m finally awake, there's no turning back (now our hero passed away) Crack open the sky as the twilight inside guides the way Learning to live on the other side, learning the ways of another life In a world, where Ember’s bleed I will Turn to the Light If I don't I’ll succumb to the night Heedless fires, burning in me Now I know that tonight is the time when I Turn to the Light What I learned from a life left behind Reaching higher, now I can see That I’m lost like a fire that burns in the dead of night

Hey! You’ve turned to the light, it looks like you died but you’re somehow alive Bury your angst and open your eyes, now stand up and face your new home-world arise I see that you’re searching for answers, for signs. That I am not real, and you’ll wake up all right The dream will not end and the dream won't let go. You’ll come to your senses before long Picked by the embers that guide our hearts to a land beyond our own In a world without celestial skies, the fire in our heart’s say (Washed away) The ocean has taken my life (Reborn again) And yet I am mesmerized Astonished to see, this is a paradise (Take my hand) No memories left to unveil who I am In another life, see the sun arise The stars tell a story of how it begun, at first there was nothing but embers that glowed “They brought us here for reasons unknown, the tower was built to deny us our right!” They won't let us in until we pay their price, burning forever up high in the sky Seeking for truth is a mind sacrifice, like vultures they worship the dying Picked by the embers that guide our hearts to a land beyond our own In a world without celestial skies, the fire in my heart says (Washed away) The ocean has taken my life (Reborn again) And yet I am mesmerized I cannot tell, is this a paradise? (Take my hand) No memories left to unveil who I am In another life, see the sun arise Lies in disguise watch the embers ignite, it won’t burn forever without sacrifice The dream will not end, the dream won't let go. You’ll come to your senses before long Picked by the embers that guide our hearts to a land beyond our own In a world without celestial skies, the fire in our heart’s say Washed away) The ocean has taken my life (Reborn again) And yet I am mesmerized I know my task, I must my find my paradise (Take my hand) No memories left to unveil who I am In another life, see the sun arise

What lies at my feet, A tomb from another life I died but still remember me, I died but still I can't believe.. Now I’ve, been dragged far away, to the other side I sunk down too deep then I woke up in here Locked out of a world, now unknown Why am I here, why do I remember me? Will I forever be…? And will I find redemption for my soul? Into the light, something has lead me here Until I face my fear I must fall into oblivion again Memories of past has consumed my mind I know I just ascended here, Yet my end seems like a lifetime ago Now I've been forced to live another life The life I lived is gone No matter what, l end up alone Why am I here, why do I remember me? Will I forever be…? And will I find redemption for my soul? Into the light, something has lead me here Until I face my fear I must fall into oblivion again In the dark you must search through the spirits’ land A bewitched force will try to stop you From the collapse The life I lived is over now for me I tried my best, yet it brought me fear How I wish I wasn’t here But deep down I feel, there's a need Like a storm in our heart that will guide us.. An inner voice is calling me forward Like a storm in our heart, let it flow like the wind, Let it guide us by paving the way Why am I here, why do I remember me? Will I forever be…? And will I find redemption for my soul? Into the light, something has lead me here Until I face my fear I must fall into oblivion again

I’ve heard of a gate, built long ago In silence A secret of old, a story untold A passage of truth, through which I must go It’s hidden to human eyes, bewitched by a spell of an ancient magic Beyond the Dark Restless Forest (A forest so old, it’s forgotten itself Free from the light of the sky) Darkness seizes my eyes In darkness I must find the way I’ve followed my instincts, and look where it got me Now there’s nowhere to go In search for a tower that lies in the east Don’t know what I’ll find but I hope that it pulls me Back to where I belong Back to home I can’t shake the feeling that I’m being watched In silence It’s like the trees are alive, and follow my steps The smell of decay, the sense of dismay Spreads all over my soul and body But I carry on, with my fear held inside Then tales of The Unhinged Shadow comes to mind There is an entity, bewitched and enslaved to the ancient magic Seeking the Portal of Truth ”Take my hand I will show you the way Let my voice be your guide in the dark” I must follow my heart In darkness I must find the way I’ve followed my instincts, and look where it got me Now there’s nowhere to go In search for a tower that lies in the east Don’t know what I’ll find but I hope that it pulls me Back to where I belong Back to home It's a monstrosity, It's fear and disease, It's an ill endeavor Deep in the dark It will take me It reaches to capture me With my soul it believes, it will rule forever As all of my hope fades away (Fear him for he is a stranger) A voice in my mind, not my own but of my kind Has grown superstitious, the embers won’t see as I heed its call The figure I see, a spirit unknown before me I know that I just cannot leave him behind In darkness I must find the way I’ve followed my instincts, and look where it got me Now there’s nowhere to go In search for a tower that lies in the east Don’t know what I’ll find but I hope that it pulls me Back to where I belong Back to home I am still on my own I must find the courage to face the unknown If I wither away like so many before me Is this where I belong?

Be weary of me I’m the outcast, the stranger inside My knowledge is free, it’ll drive you insane I know How far that the Angel falls Listen to my words I am disease I am the kind that will do as I please If you’d seen what I’ve seen, you'd be me I am disease I have a God given right to be me If you knew what I’ve seen, you'd agree Inside lies a key To the heart of somebody I was I dare you to see the illusion I breathe How are you so sure, you’re not mislead Like the ones trapped before You can chose the light Cause I’ve seen, Dark times in the Ember Eye Nothing can be done I am disease I am the kind that will do as I please If you’d seen what I’ve seen, you'd be me I am disease I have a God given right to be me If you knew what I’ve seen, you'd agree This makes zero sense, you're just a shell of a man If somehow the stars should fall down, where could you hide “Free me now, please break my curse” I am disease I am the kind that will do as I please If you’d seen what I’ve seen, you'd be me I am disease I have a God given right to be me If you knew what I’ve seen, you'd agree

I've returned to you No more a foe, I'm just a ghost with a sad aching heart The problem with me is that I've grown contempt with life And it tears me apart I’ve seen your world, but still im kept in the dark The path I chose has hardened my heart My memory haunts me with the knowledge That I am the one The last one of my kind Don’t know what I will find Still searching for a sign The one I’ll leave behind Is all that comes to mind I'm the last one of my kind The wisdom you bestow Churns like the sands of time, then death won’t turn us to dust I’m somewhat like you, I’m trapped at the edge of life But who mourns the dead? I've seen your world, it was mine to explore It’s the road I’m on like many before Like a cancer it spreads But it won't stop my yearning… NO! You’re on your own The last one of my kind Don’t know what I will find Still searching for a sign The one I’ll leave behind Is all that comes to mind I'm the last one of my kind It's a shame that my return brought you this pain I have carried the weight of the world for nothing.. I've suffered long enough With my mind and spirit free I will now show you The way The last one of my kind Don’t know what I will find Still searching for a sign The one I left behind Is all that comes to mind I'm the last one of my kind

Like the drowning young soldier I feel how times running out The death and destruction continues while something was lost Fear brought us here but inside lies a path, we must go on our own Heaven or stardust don't matter, I must carry on… On my own…

I got in the way Turning my eyes far away It came to me, the truth won't set me free My mind, it trembles in fear When life’s a burden to bear Burn the stone, a life I’ve known Awaiting me, now I am home Learn to stay, I will have to keep my faith But I must be wrong! Caught in their eyes In the dead of the night Know that I will follow you to the end Beware, to live or to die? Stars will cover the sky Blinded by the ember eye a fire that burns deep inside Learn to stay, I will have to keep my faith But I have been wrong before, I just wonder why Cover my eyes, and find my undying light Now I’m reborn by your side My fire inside is one with the eye Let me be one with the night I stumble in fear With each step I feel that I’m near It calls to me, it’s presence made known long ago Well I still remember a time or a lie that’s just a disguise Blinded by the ember eye Deep down I know somethings wrong (deep down I know somethings wrong) Learn to stay, I will have to keep my faith Cause I have been wrong before, I just wonder why Cover my eyes, and find my undying light Now I’m reborn by your side My fire inside is one with the eye Let me be one with the night My visions impaired by this veil A trial that so many failed I kept on running where others gave in and fled, far away (they fled far away) The portal of truth lies ahead If I go through I might end up dead The power within me will always remain As I’ll Cover my eyes, and find my undying light Now I’m reborn by your side My fire inside is one with the eye I feel that the moment is nigh The legends will tell of my might If you let me be one with the night

Somewhere in the deep of my mind Glows a fire of my kind Something foul is lurking inside and I wonder why… the will of the eye? Could it be that I wasn't right? Now the flame is burning black as the night I believed it was my fate to go on.. Deeper alone I’m picked by the embers that guide our hearts They tell me that I’m on my own Like a storm in my heart Like a wind it carries on And the voice in my mind guides the way It's been there from the start It's a feeling that tears me apart Let the storm in my heart guide the way A warning without reason or rhyme Is whispered by the ghosts of time But the fire doesn't burn as I see The portal of truth… here before me For a moment I stop in awe While orchid tinted light grabs a hold I don't know how I can do this alone But I must go on I’m picked by the embers that guide our hearts They tell me that I must go on Like a storm in my heart Like a wind it carries on And the voice in my mind guides the way It's been there from the start It's a feeling that tears me apart Let the storm in my heart guide the way Like a storm in my heart Like a wind it carries on And the voice in my mind guides the way It's been there from the start It's a feeling that tears me apart Let the storm in my heart guide the way Im picked by the embers that guide our hearts What's becoming of me, Is it all make believe? Will it lead me to my home?
