1. Say Goodbye ...
2. This Lost Smile in the Dark Sky
Cleanse ourselves of sins
For death passes everyone
You'll never know when your day will come
But we'll all go one by one
It's all a mystery to me
Is there life after death ?
Or do we end up in a mortuary ?
After taking our last breath ?
Do our souls wander on earth ?
Or is it an end to vitality ?
Or is it a new birth...
To everlasting immortality ??
3. Nihil
4. For a While
Time is passing by
Hate, joy, peace, war
all this things that made life so hard
(creations for destructions)
Let's stay here for a while
What will happen tomorrow ?
What happened yesterday ?
Why am I still here ?
Thousands born, thousands die
Without any goal
Than to see another dawn
Time keeps me strong
I'm ready to leave
Let's stay here for a while
Close my eyes
Tell me some words
The shine of my life is slowly fading
Rest in peace
5. Mourning Dawn
What then is love but mourning ?
What desire but a self-burning ?
Till she that hates doth love return
Thus will I mourn, thus will I sing :
Come away, come away, my dawn
In early morning sunlight, I see you everyday
You sit and turn and go to sleep, you have nothing to say
As I feel the minutes pass painfully by, happier faces appear
I feel like I'm unworthy to share with you this cheer
I don't hold it against you, how can you know ?
I'm not yet allowed to let true feelings show
How can you know that I'm dying inside
My soul being drowned under sorrow's harsh tide
How could you know that you're all that I want
Without you, my heart is decrepit and gaunt
How would you know that you're all that I've sought
Your face makes its way into every waking thought
Later on, you'll of course ask, 'What's wrong with you ?'
My simple response : Mourning dawn
6. Straight to the Past
Through my hands I see a world
Black & white, sublime, decadent
Characters of a past life
Rulers of a past time
Picture my heart
Picture my life
Picture my mind
All in black & white
Melancholy's haunting
Present's boring
I wish to go back
Straight to the past, to the glorious time
Where love & hate were laws...
No regrets
No time to loose
Give me the knife
And let the colors be black...
7. Outro
8. Beyond the Mirror
