1. Overture
2. From The Cradle To The Grave
There is a window out of pain,
but the grief will come again,
swallow all the light and steal the sleep tonight.
I'll never see the day to take it all away.
There was a time to play my cards,
drown my anchor in the hearts,
find the tracks to love and get the tricks to shove.
I never found a way to make it here to stay.
My world is dark and out of touch.
I'm left alone a bit too much.
What you see is what you get,
but when you can't there's nothing left.
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave.
My world is full of mortal scenes
that blind my eyesand steal my dreams.
What you feel is what you get,
but when you can't there's nothing left.
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave.
My world is dark and out of touch.
I'm left alone a bit too much.
What you see is what you get,
but when you can't there's nothing left.
My world is full of mortal scenes
that blind my eyesand steal my dreams.
I can't see of feel it yet and as I can't there's nothing left.
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave.
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave.
I'll miss you from the cradle to the grave.
3. Alive But Dead
As I walk the streets I feel no pain,
there is no love or hate, can't see no certain state I'm in.
And a fog has laid itself on my heart
like this misty morning as this cloudy day begins.
Still I wonder should I be afraid
about what's happening and how long has it been -don't know.
Why did come this shadow in my head
like I have lost my soul, like I'm alive but dead.
As I walk the streets I feel no fear,
although I notice that there is no feeling anymore.
And I try to send my mind back to the times
when I was able to live something to the core.
Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead,
I'm just a slave to what they've said. (this decay)
Still I'm alive but I feel dead.
Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead,
I'm just a slave to when you call, (my disease)
Still I'm alive but I must be dead.
Alive but dead
can't fill my head
Darkness, there's darkness everywhere.
You gotta help me out of here,
I don't want to stay alive without the capability to feel!
4. Turn The Page
Time will come when you fell down
Everything you had is gone
and whatever you had thought you'd really need
is meaningless, you turn around
caught by light a distant sound
like a creature that is drawn into the flame
Turn the page and face another day
on that stage that you're supposed to stay
Turn tha page and fill it up with life
I won't sigh when time will turn the page
You're alone during the stay
Company can share your way
but they'll never ever make it really close
to the core, to the beyond
What's in store on from this point
will surprisingly be scaring joyful pain
Turn the page and face another day
Take your time cause something's on the way
Turn the page and fill it up with life
And don't sigh when time will turn the page
On these tracks we walk, we've got a choice
Be aware. I'll be your voice...
Time will come you're down
Everything you had is gone
And whatever you had thought you'd really need
is meaningless, you turn around
caught by light a distant sound
like a creature that is drawn into the flame
Turn the page and face another day
on that stage that you're supposed to stay
Turn tha page and fill it up with life
I won't sigh when time will turn the page
5. All This Time
Now, as I had a look at you
it took a heartbeat and I knew
that the candle of my life was burning shorter.
You turned me 'round to face myself,
to make me trust in what I am,
now, after all that I have done it makes me wonder I'm around.
Now the night has gone, better days to come.
All this time I have been afraid, it is not too late...
All this time while we talked my thoughts collided.
All this time I could have seen but I was blind.
All this time...
I thought I'd never see the day
that in myself I'd feel this way.
We are the meaning and we know. Forever different - the same.
Now the night has gone, better days to come.
All this time I have strained my mind, waiting for a sign.
Time is like a river that is running out to sea.
We can't touch the ground, so grab a blade of straw.
If you swim on waves of trust you cannot even drown,
when you hit the shores of love you cannot die...
6. In a Nameless Time
1. The mysterium
Awakening this curse was the least of all my fears.
If I could turn back time to free me from this crime.
It started back in time when something stole my mind
and led me through aeons to place and time unknown.
I lived their life, lost in their time, without my face.
Take me back home from these cryptic walls.
I wait for a sign from my own reality, I wait here
in a nameless time.
A certain time passed by, I returned to my life
with memories hard to find, a secret in my mind.
I found it out, I've learned about the place I've been.
Take me away to these cryptic walls.
I wait for a sign from this old reality, it calls me
from a nameless time.
Take me back to these cryptic walls,
to this desert place and this strange reality, it calls me
from a nameless time.
2. The expedition
I broke up to find this place, find those from the elder race.
In this unknown desert land I was digging in the sand.
Found these ruins, blocks of stone, older than the Egypt ones.
Climbed in caves, unspeakable, far down in the planets depths.
There were these enchanted books, pages that I've known too well,
written by the aliens 'bout the way their study's been.
They transformed through space and time in all kinds of living minds
learning this way everything how through times the culture's been.
And I imagined how it's been like traveling through a name less time.
And I remembered how I felt when I was
in a nameless time, in a nameless time...
Take me home from these cryptic vaults.
I wait for a sign from my own reality, I wait here
in a nameless time.
3. Finding out
Although the most I knew I needed a final proof
if I'd been one of them. And then these pages came :
My written words! So I'd been here in one of them...
Take me back home from these cryptic vaults.
'cause I've been alive in this strange reality,
release me from this nameless time.
Take me home from these cryptic vaults.
I'm cursed for all time in this strange reality,
release me from this nameless time...
7. Just Alone
They lowered my body in a dark hole
the dry ground now covers my remains
I stood at their side and watched them crying
They can't know their tears they are in vain
All four winds together driving me forever
I'm not lost, I'm just alone
I can see, I can hear, I can be, be forevermore...
All four winds together driving me forever
I'm not lost, I'm just alone
Where shall I be in this demension?
Where are the others I await?
is this existence mean forever?
is there a door that leds away?
All four winds together driving me forever
I'm not lost, I'm just alone
Nailed to a cross of isolation
My punishment is I'm all alone
Just alone, alone...
8. Immortal Sin
So sweet and defenceless
offeres all to my dependence
Just relax your spirit
we're all alone
Tied up in the darkness
you've forgotten you existance
waiting for the fire
and what's to come
Lost imaginations
coming back to scare the body
GOing down in fever
drawn to the flame
A sweet pain to cut the indifference
a forbidden love to come
You're immortal, you're immortal sin
Coming from behind you
feel the fingers reaching higher
Crawling on the floor
you won't get away
So sweet and dependet
I will offer my demands
So just relax your spirit
we're all alone
And you know you shouldn't walk this way
but you never want to hear
You're immortal, you're immortal sin
Now you're gone too far...
9. Paint It Black (Rolling Stones cover)
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colours anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens every day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and I want it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I wanna see your face painted black, black as night
Don't wanna see the sun flying high in the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
