1. The Last Stand
2. Enslaved
No, I'm not gonna break
I've come to far
To turn and walk away
The time has come for me to change
My fate
Can you hear the battle calling?
This will be a glorious day
Some will join the fallen
Many meet their death
This is the only way:
To walk ahead
The choice has been made
There is nothing left to lose
anyway
Can you see the day is dawning?
It's time to face the end
With the sword I'm holding
I'll ride into the blaze
I will fight this battle
I will not just stand and wait
Forsaken by the world
Enslaved by my own hate
My soul's a shattered mirror
And I no longer have a name
But I won't be forgotten
On my final day
No, I won't lose my faith
I never have
There's still a chance to win
The gates of destiny are open to me
Just one more step and I'll be
Free from my chains
My lord is Victory
He can't be betrayed
3. Nowhere To Turn
Don't let me fall asleep tonight
Don't let these visions haunt my mind
It feels like falling
Drowning in a sea of light
And in my dream I see you stand
In a cold, forsaken land
There seems to be no other way
But this is not the end
Promise you'll wait for me there
Let us fly on the wings of despair
Now that there's nowhere to turn
May the fire in our hearts forever burn
In this state forever bound
I scream but I can hear no sound
Again I'm falling
Praying soon I'll hit the ground
And then the dream returns to me
A blinding light is all I see
It's time to leave this world behind
And set your spirit free
4. Seven Wishes
A whisper in the night
A wish for the day
Away from the crowds
You try to hide again
You've been here before
But something's not the same
Can you hear the voice?
It's calling out your name
Come face the light
It's never been too late
Your soul is like a wanderer
Forever led astray
Come fly with me
On the blazing wings of fate
Be the master of the sky
Armed with the light of day
Seven wishes whispered into the night
Seven ways to reach the edge of time
Flaming riders bringing hope we are
Seven starborn warriors by your side
A whisper for the day
A voice in the night saying
Never give in to
The pain that's deep inside
Let us take your soul
To where the angels dare
Just free your heart and follow
We'll show you the way
Come face the light
Seven wishes whispered into the night
Seven ways to reach the edge of time
Flaming riders bringing hope we are
Seven starborn warriors by your side
Seven wishes whispered into the night
5. Waiting For The Dawn
Look at me, I'm starving
Surrounded by a cruel world
My heartbeat's getting weaker
Tired of this life in chains
I remember stories
Of better places with no fear
Winds talking softly
The final dawn is drawing near
Listen to my voice
Hear the cry of a dying day
There's no other choice
Into your arms the only way
Hold me tight, don't let me fall
Tonight it's time to ease may pain
And go alone
To ever waiting gates of hell
Remember all the tears
Shed on my journey to this place
All the fears I left behind
Those empty days
Remember what we had
The whispers of dark mists at dawn
Glimpses of a candlelight
Those empty days
Leaving now
Reaching the other side of life
I've had too much of this world's
Hypocrisy and painful lies
I have finally found a place
Where I can be alone
I waiting for a time to run away
Waiting for the dawn
6. Galleon
Leaving all the years
All the days bygone
Starring at the blaze
Of the setting sun
Out there in the waves
Where the night is born
There's my destiny
A tale to be told
Boundless oceans never crossed before
Endless journeys to a distant shore
Carried by the waves, my galleon of life
Sails to the unknown, leaves the land behind
One day I'll reach the edge and take a step beyond
Guided by the stars I'll face my dreams alone
Somewhere in the sky
There's a star of hope
Tonight I see it shine
Brighter than before
Let it lead your way
To the unknown lands
Let the freedom reign
Tomorrow's in your hands
Boundless oceans never crossed before
Endless journeys to a distant shore
Carried by the waves, my galleon of life
Sails to the unknown, leaves the land behind
One day I'll reach the edge and take a step beyond
Guided by the stars I'll face my dreams alone
7. Heaven In Flames
Have you seen the death
Walk beside you?
Ever so near, yet you cannot hear its voice
I remember tears
Drops of cold blood
Falling like rain, creating an endless stream of pain
I never wanted them to know my anger
Never wished to see them filled with fear
Will this nightmare be there with me forever, burning together
With me forever, burning together
Why can't I forget
The sight of heaven in flames?
The ashes of memories
Are now like lines in the sand
I greet the setting sun
And welcome the night
Feeling the winter's cold in my dead wings
Darkness clouds my sight
Now without a light of hope
I'll roam the world with death as my guide
I never wanted them to know my anger
Never wished to see them filled with fear
Will this nightmare be there with me forever, burning together
With me forever, burning together
Why can't I forget
The sight of heaven in flames?
The ashes of memories
Are now like lines in the sand
8. Cold
Running away from the fire
That burns inside your darkened eyes
I want to reach out and release you
From this cage that you designed
A prophet of loss
A king of shame
Do you believe you can resist
What stands in your way?
Taking a walk through the ashes
- a vision of the things to come
You see the broken pieces
Of lives you used and threw away
A prince of lies
A master of pain
Already past the line that
Separated the insane
Tell me now
Can you explain all that you've seen?
Tell me why
Although you're cold you burn within
I see it now
A battle rages in your head
Still breathing but inside you're almost dead
Running away from the fire
That burns inside your dying eyes
I want to reach out and release you
But the door is locked from inside
You locked yourself
From the light of day
Trapped within your running thoughts
You slowly decay
Tell me now
Can you explain all that you've seen?
Tell me why
Although you're cold you burn within
I see it now
A battle rages in your head
Inside you're almost dead
I sing the words born deep within
And let them be carried by the wind
Tell me now
Can you explain all that you've seen?
Tell me why
Although you're cold you burn within
I see it now
A battle rages in your head
Still breathing but inside you're almost dead
9. Impure
See me down in here
Alone and cold
Covered with fear
My soul is broken
But my heart just won't stop beating
I've tried to break through walls of life
To see what's behind
But all I found was only tears
And dust
Lost inside
I try to scream
So Gods can hear
My only wish
Held deep within
To wash the past away and go (where life begins)
And I welcome raindrops falling
Let them touch my face
Holy water to refine,
To purify me
And I dance among the fallen
Let them know my name
Whatever's written in my fate
Remember me
See them walk away
Afraid and lost
Without an aim
See them run
And see them ending in destruction
The fire burning in their eyes
Is long since gone
Replaced by memories made of glass
That fall
Lost inside
I try to scream
So Gods can hear
My only wish
Held deep within
To wash the past away and go (where life begins)
And I welcome raindrops falling
10. Trapped Under The Sky
The sound of the rain
Brings visions of angels crying in shame
The raindrops play
A melody of sadness a song with no name
I sing the words born deep within
And let them be carried by the wind
Listen
The symphony of life
Is fading out
Remember
We're bound here together
Forever trapped under the sky
Another rhyme
The notes changed but words remain the same
This is the time
To ease the crying angels' pain
I sing the words born deep within
And let them be carried by the wind
11. Amnesia
