1. Dei Donum
2. Facing the Rage
Back to the start, to the dawn of your dreams,
There was a creature who craved for power.
I am afraid of life for his decisions,
The end might reach us on a single lash.
Behold this tragedy
That never seems to stop,
The mixed emotions
Out of the pain arise.
Endless corruption controls the legion
That was supposed to protect and serve.
How can this be reality?
Somebody wake from this evil dream.
The good are restless,
Evil remains unharmed.
My mind’s conflicted,
Am I the wicked one?
Running away,
No one is safe
From the threats of present life.
Facing the rage,
I’m on the edge,
I don’t want to take this step
towards hate.
Placed in a quandary,
I look for the right way.
Running away,
No one is safe
From the threats of present life.
Facing the rage,
I’m on the edge,
I don’t want to take this step
towards hate.
3. Children of Pain
I’ve seen children begging
In the realm of the streets,
They are led by someone else,
Who feeds their misery;
Doesn’t care about their feelings,
Never cared about their pain,
But their lives are reflecting
In the mirror of indifference.
No promised land,
They live a dark and cold childhood,
Adolescence is like a storm.
Growing up in a dirty world,
In the arms of decadence,
Without family or love,
Their illusions are lost…
they are lost.
The eyes of the streets saw them born,
Defenceless in the world,
Where the air is impregnated with violence.
They find only desolation,
Seeking self-annihilation,
Without hopes, their lives are sentenced,
They don’t wait for anything better.
…In the arms of decadence,
Without family or love,
Their illusions are lost.
No promised land,
They live a dark and cold childhood,
Adolescence is like a storm.
Growing up in a dirty world,
In the arms of decadence…
Of decadence…
Of decadence… of decadence…
A dawn full of darkness,
A storm in my conscience,
Clouds cover my future,
Skies are turning grey.
The rain washes my sins,
The wind dries my tears,
Resentment is growing up inside of me,
Innocents will pay for it.
Our pride is wounded,
Wounded to death,
Discrimination is floating in the air.
Living on the edge of destiny,
If my life isn’t worth to the eyes of the world,
You might have to pay for it.
4. Stillness
5. River of Tears
Sent away so suddenly,
Far away from your family,
Considering, so sadly,
That they might have not survived.
And the water storm brakes against you,
No one expected it to rise so high,
It was so calm and tame, even gentle,
But today… it’s woken up.
River of tears – the river of tears,
Drowning the hopes of the people,
River of tears – the river of tears,
The one that stole their lives away.
Just pain and misery
Is what you left over your path,
Ruins will show again
As the water goes away.
So much dismay and hate,
So much death and growing sadness,
You took away dreams
That you’ll never bring back,
River of Tears.
You fear, you don’t trust,
You think that no one will understand,
Don’t give up; soon aid will come.
Several days have gone by, the calmness returns,
A whole life to build it –an instant to lose it all,
Laments and prayers, waiting for something from heaven
…That never comes …that never comes.
Just pain and misery
Is what you left over your path,
Ruins will show again
As the water goes away.
So much dismay and hate,
So much death and growing sadness,
You took away dreams
That you’ll never bring back,
River of Tears.
You took away dreams that you’ll never bring back.
6. Inner
In this world I have to live,
I play the game, a game full of hatred;
Some will fall, but I am meant to thrive…
- Wake up now, and stop this madness,
When you start your walk, you never look back,
All your life is based on selfishness,
“Value” does not always equal “price”.
- I make my way through these hard times,
That is not a crime.
- The torments you fear are stalking the world;
- I just will not hear your lecture, you’re blind
- And I am falling down,
(The anguish begins to harbor inside)
Cause you are inside my mind
STARVATION – DEJECTION –
ARE STALKING THE WORLD;
AND GREED IS TO BLAME.
- At the end of the day,
How can your conscience be clear?
- I just do what it takes
to keep my empire alive…
leave them all behind!
- Some day you’ll regret your actions;
- No, I won’t… I need success;
- So much misery and hunger,
And it’s your kind the one to blame.
The cost for your success is pain;
you don’t seem to care.
- The torments you fear are stalking the world;
- I just will not hear your lecture, you’re blind
- And I am falling down,
(The anguish begins to harbor inside)
Cause you are inside...
- You are inside my mind and
This inner fight, it’s driving me insane…
- And I begin to wonder how-
How will this ever end.
- It’s time to bring this to an end,
The end of this life.
- The torments you fear are stalking the world;
- I just will not hear your lecture, you’re blind
- And I am falling down,
(The anguish begins to harbor inside)
Cause you are inside my mind.
7. A Searcher's Symphony
Out on the streets again,
No job, but you keep the faith,
Walking straight ahead
You’ll get across every gate.
As long as your heart beats stronger,
You won’t fall apart.
Try to persevere,
Be patient, you’ll win the race,
Oh, it will be so hard,
But you won’t put your arms down.
As long as your heart beats stronger,
You won’t fall apart.
You’re always thinking
How to face your fate,
Soon you will surely find
The peace that you’re searching for.
I can’t imagine you on the wrong way,
Only your family will be with you all along.
You must put yourself on the run again,
Soon you will get the key to open any door.
And time tears down the skin,
Turning your soul old,
Only your faith will,
Will give you back everything
If the sun shines again in the city.
Another day will begin,
And you will be hopeful to find
A respite at last, and your eyes will see
The calm after the storm,
Because there isn’t any eternal pain.
And once you’re working,
you finally will find relief,
You’ll get your freedom.
And time tears down the skin,
Turning your soul old,
Only your faith will,
Will give you back everything
If the sun shines again in the city.
Another day will begin,
And you will be hopeful to find
A respite at last, and your eyes will see
The calm after the storm,
Because there isn’t any eternal pain.
Only your family will be with you all along.
Your eyes will see the calm after the storm.
8. Darkness & Light - Vivace
9. Since You Are Not Here
I want to feel again
How my skin burns,
The kisses of the past
Made me forget the pain,
Now it’s too late.
And I remember now
How I used to make love to you
Inside these empty rooms,
Before an abyss of memories I lie by you.
And I cannot go on anymore
Since you are not here,
Because your heart just
kills me and gives me life,
Please, come back to me ‘cause I want
To believe again,
Only your presence gives me the strength
to carry on…
I know that I’m just deceiving myself
Because you will never come back,
I don’t know why I’m suffering
When you didn’t care about my pain.
And I cannot go on anymore
Since you are not here,
Because your heart just
kills me and gives me life,
Please, come back to me ‘cause I want
To believe again,
Only your presence gives me the strength
to carry on…
And this wound now will bleed
without your love,
but time will ease my pain
over, and over again.
And I cannot go on anymore
Since you are not here,
Because your heart just
kills me and gives me life,
Please, come back to me ‘cause I want
To believe again,
Only your presence gives me the strength
to carry on…
10. Liars
My mind is so sick,
I can’t stand it anymore,
I’m tired of waiting, spending my life in vain.
Watching all my dreams
Go by in the eyes of time,
As they try to kill my ideal.
Don’t be a victim of your own fears,
Or a prisoner of your anxiety.
So you won’t get lost in the darkness
Of this false humanity;
Don’t believe their words
disguised as valid,
Tear down the wall of tears,
Build up your dignity.
Try to escape from reality
On the wings of destiny,
Overfly the earth and seas
To live your dreams.
Don’t you hear again broken promises,
Keep your soul safe, safe from hypocrisy.
So you won’t get lost in the darkness
Of this false humanity;
Don’t believe their words
disguised as valid,
Tear down the wall of tears,
Build up your dignity.
...The wall of tears,
Build up your dignity.
Try to escape from reality…
Overfly the earth and seas…
