1. Rise from the Fall
Invisible faces
Whisper to me in the night
They're speaking of places
Men have spent lifetimes to find
As if out of nowhere
Their shadows appeared
Fathers and sons in search of the one
Souls of eternity
Into the night - Reach for the sky
Guide me - You are the wise
Take me away to your kingdom of light
Time will prove to us all
If I'm the one - The rise from the fall
The rise from the fall
The journey seemed endless
Answers were so far away
I was running on empty
I was down on my knees in prayer
And just out of nowhere
The shadows appeared
Opened the gate, they showed me the way
The road to eternity
Into the night - Head for the sky
Guide me - You are the wise
Take me away to your kingdom of light
I will prove to you all
I am the one - The rise from the fall
The rise from the fall
As if out of nowhere
Their shadows appeared
Fathers and sons in search of the one
Souls of eternity
Into the night - Reach for the sky
Guide me - You are the wise
Take me away to your kingdom of light
Time will prove to us all
If I'm the one - The rise from the fall
Guide me - You are the wise
Take me away to your kingdom of light
I will prove to you all
I am the one - The rise from the fall
The rise from the fall
2. Heaven
Too many questions runnin' through your head
Speaking a language I don't understand
Blame me as always with that look in your eye
The sound of your silence asking me why
How many times must I try to tell you
For every tear that you cry my heart dies
There's no return for me
Heaven is somewhere beyond
A place you don't know, so far from here
Heaven is somebody else, no I can't pretend
Take my word - You're not the one
Now you're begging me to cure you from the
Pain, but the facts remain the same
The years that we had that you treasure in
your heart was just a mistake from the very start
Too many times I have tried to tell you
For every tear that you cried my heart died
There's no return for me
Heaven is somewhere beyond
A place you don't know, so far from here
Heaven is somebody else, no I can't pretend
Take my word - You're not the one - Heaven
Cause all that I need is to find some
peace of mind - oh can't you forgive and try
Heaven is somewhere beyond
A place you don't know, so far from here
Heaven is somebody else, no I can't pretend
Take my word - you're not the one
3. Tell Me
I can tell wrong from right
The stories you tell
The sound of a thousand lies
Don't tell me I'm out of line
I know every move
Heard every alibi
Your destiny's calling
It's only a matter of time
Before you start falling
Losing what's left of your mind
Don't tell me you're sorry
Don't tell me you're true
Cause I don't believe in you
I used to believe
Don't tell me you're changing
Don't tell me your truth
Cause I can't believe in you
Like I used to believe
You are the accident
Just waiting to happen
Too late to save yourself
It's over and we both know
That you're back on your own
Out of your comfort zone
You're treading old waters
Playing your game 'till the end
A lamb to the slaughter
Losing again and again
Don't tell me you're sorry
Don't tell me you're true
Cause I don't believe in you
I used to believe
Don't tell me you're changing
Don't tell me your truth
Cause I can't believe in you
Like I used to believe
Tell me, who will believe in you
4. Chained
Don't try to change me
Don't try to stop me
Roll of the dice - the fate of mine
Choices I'm making, the plays I act
I don't expect you to understand
Now, I can tell you must be hurting,
Don't think I don't, keep hangin' on,
Hide in my shadow, but you should know
You got me...
Chained
Release me from this slavery
Chained
You'll never get the best of me
Chained
Our days are numbered can't you see
Chained
That is nothing, but a game to me
It's in your heartbeat
Every word you speak
You fear the moment you'll watch me leave No matter how much you are burning
You're still too cold
Well, my love can't be trusted
You ought to know
I feel the pain in your denials,
Don't think I don't, telling yourself it
Isn't over, but we both know
You got me...
Chained
Release me from this slavery
Chained
You'll never get the best of me
Chained
Our days are numbered can't you see
Chained
That is nothing, but a game to me
Release me from this slavery...
It's nothin' but a game to me, you got me
Chained
Release me from this slavery
Chained
You'll never get the best of me
Chained
OUr days are numbered can't you see
Chained
That is nothing, but a game to me
5. Now or Never
Look into the mirror
Search inside your heart
You will find the one you really are
Any way but backwards
Heading for the truth
Nobody can tell you what to do
Live your life, just open up your eyes
Now or never - You must choose your destiny
Live forever - Trust your soul and
Seize the day - You're in control
It's all in your mind - Live your life
Face a new tomorrow
You've got everything to win
From today your new life will begin
The only trusted ally
Is no-one, but yourself
Standing tall, prepared to risk it all
Live your life, just open up your eyes
Now or never - You must choose your destiny
Live forever - Trust your soul and
Seize the day - You're in control
It's all in your mind - Live your life
Now or never - You must choose your destiny
Live forever - Trust your soul and
Seize the day - You're in control
It's all in your mind - Live your life
6. Two Hearts
I lost my mind
I lost myself
I kept on falling, straight down to hell
Stood at the crossroads
I needed a sign
To find my way, out of the night
As the light seemed to be too far away
The answer to every prayer
Looked into my eyes and took my hand
(It took)
Two hearts - but only one wish
Two hearts - together we're strong
(It took)
Two hearts - but only one wish
Two hearts - together we're strong
The wheels of life
Spinning around
I kept on falling, no feet on the ground
Reached out for something
But I forgot to give
It took an angel to show me how to live
As the light seemed to be too far away
The answer to every prayer
Looked into my eyes and took my hand
(It took)
Two hearts - but only one wish
Two hearts - together we're strong
(It took)
Two hearts - but only one wish
Two hearts - together we're strong
(It took)
Two hearts - but only one wish
Two hearts - together we're strong
(It took)
Two hearts - but only one wish
Two hearts - together we're strong
7. Invention #13
8. Run / Leave
Lay down your arms
This fight you cannot win
Don't go too far
Might be a rude awakening
We're worlds apart
I can't help what I don't feel
Don't trust your heart
I'm everything that you don't need
(you might as well)
Run / leave
Cause I'm not your destiny
(you know you better)
Run / break free
From your own worst enemy
I know you're confusing me
With the one I used to be
(You might as well)
Run / leave me
No, I'm not your destiny
I know myself
The dark mind of a restless soul
The road to hell
So tell me what you're waiting for
Don't hesitate
There's still time to save yourself
Before it is too late
Get a life, get someone else
(you might as well)
Run / leave
Cause I'm not your destiny
(you know you better)
Run / break free
From your own worst enemy
I know you're confusing me
With the one I used to be
(You might as well)
Run / leave me
No, I'm not your destiny
Lay down your arms
This fight you cannot win
Do not trust your heart
Might be a rude awakening
(you might as well)
Run / leave
Cause I'm not your destiny
(you know you better)
Run / break free
From your own worst enemy
I know you're confusing me
With the one I used to be
(you might as well)
Run / leave me, no, I'm not your destiny
9. Live for the Sacred
The cry's been heard before
It's evil to the core
Chanting in the distant
Calling out for more
Always - hunted - wanted
It's an everlasting chase
Always - hunted - wanted
Ages since it started
A scream of ecstasy
As they smell the enemy
Hunting human souls
But they can't catch me
I live for the sacred
I'll die for the truth
Fighting the dark 'till the
Light comes shining through
Centuries of fear
So many disappeared
But finally the time has come
The reckoning is near
Always - hunted - wanted
They're in it for the chase
Always - hunted - wanted
I'll finish what they started
So lead them on to me
I let them sense the enemy
Let them hunt my soul
Cause they can't catch me
I live for the sacred
I'll die for the truth
Fighting the dark 'till the
Light comes shining through
I live for the sacred
I'll die for the truth
Fighting the dark 'till the
Light comes shining through
I live for the sacred
I'll die for the truth
Fighting the dark 'till the
Light comes shining through
10. Vivaldi Winter
11. Run for Your Life
Thunder and lightning roaring outside
Voices keep calling your name through the night
The wind carries these whispers away
It's almost like a spell
Will you ever break free
From the chains of the past
If you believe in yourself
There's freedom at last
Run for your life
Run from the dark to the light
Run for your life
Run with the speed of light
The beginning of the end
Cause now your fate is in your hands
Closing your eyes to focus the thoughts
You'll do anything not to get caught
Leave while you can and don't get confused
By demons inside your head
Will you ever break free
From the chains of the past
If you believe in yourself
There be freedom at last
Run for your life
Run from the dark to the light
Run for your life
Run with the speed of light
The beginning of the end
Cause now your fate is in your hands
Run for your life
Run from the dark to the light
Run for your life
Run with the speed of light
The beginning of the end
Cause now your fate is in your hands
