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 eyes and 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 eyes and 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. Days Of December
The clouds have prepared for rain and storm.
The chill of the wind has frozen all the pain.
I know in my room it's dry and warm.
but I cannot stand to scan the walls in vain.
White and wonderful the snow covers my hair.
I reach out but you're not there.
In the days of december
I'm lonely ever since you're gone.
In the night I remember
your frozen hands that kept me warm.
Im the days of december.
I never seen sense in future plans.
I know that the time will make it up somehow.
But good, how I miss you, there's no words
to tell you how it looks inside myself now.
Cold and beautiful,
your vision in the ice.
I reach out but you're not there.
In the days of december
I'm lonely ever since you're gone.
In the night I remember
your frozen hands that kept me warm.
Im the days of december.
4. Sign Of Heaven
I've been waiting for an invitation
couldn't leave my selfmade reservation
I had locked the doors and threw the key away
There was nothing but my own reflection
and the phone was silent, no connection
I was turning just in circles with no end
All that I had, it was gone, it was dead
But now my night is surrounded by light
This nust be a sign of heaven, a sign of heaven
the nightmare's over
As the winter left the frozen places
and the mirror smiled at lonely face
The my leaves they started slowly reached out
Now your laughter echoes in the silence
and your waters wash the dirt from my hands
as we harvest all the fruits that come our way
All that I had, it was gone, it was dead
But now my night is surrounded by light
This nust be a sign of heaven, a sign of heaven
the nightmare's over
There was nothing but my own reflection
I was turning just in circles with no end...
5. Incomplete
~~~~~~~~~~
Here I am still I try to find out where I'm really now
What has been I have laid it down forgotten on a shelf
An old pair of shoes I've grown out
There's never enough to take when you're
running away from emptiness
My days seem like wasted. I'm incomplete
I'm grieving, believe in the change in me
I'm lost alone and incomplete
Now You're gone, I send my spirit out to wander all the time
And my flesh, it is waiting for a time to be realised
All in one's hand , a touch at least
Confusion, nothing real
I'm lost without, I feel I'm almost gone
My days seem like wasted. I'm incomplete
I'm grieving, believe in the change in me
I'm lost alone and incomplete
6. 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
7. Heartblood
On a dusty windinf roadm luck is not for free
If you did like you were told, you will never see
Just give me your heartblood...
Can it be a sin to speak in the tonque of freedom?
You will only win if you try the best to be you
Just give me your heartblood...
Warfare in a sick society
Out there dive it all or leave it be
No fear! What do you mean - security?
Who cares about you? You'll only hear
8. Over And Over
Once our eyes stare hollow in to nothing
our fingers clutching helpless in the void
Then our skulls won't tell about our past lifes
rich or poor, we're gonna be destroyed
Nothing gonna save us from death, leave it all behind
and our gathering, it was all invain
Over and over again building up castles of sand
Over and over again all for a kingdom of sand in your hands
Bankers, beggans, soldiers, priests and sinners
leadres, losers, all will be the same
if you keep your millions on accountings
nothinf you will take out from this game
And in your last hideway that's kept far underground
you'll share your remains gust with the worms
Over and over again building up castles of sand
Over and over again all for a kingdom of sand in your hands
9. In Vain (I Won't Go Down)
This is my life and I won't compromise or waste my time
All I have done I did on purpose 'cause I want it to do
if I was wrong I'm very sorry but this happens when you try
sometimes you cann't forsee how things are working out
and what it's about...
if it all was in vain I won't sigh for a single day
I'll do it again and again
If it was in vain I will wait for another time
I swear. I won't go down again
And if I doubt I might have failed even before the day is done
how can I know if I don't dare?
Am I allowed do it twice if I don't make it at first time?
Then I will learn from my mistakes and I'll do right haven't I try...?
if it all was in vain I won't sigh for a single day
I'll do it again and again
If it was in vain I will wait for another time
I swear. I won't go down again
I know you know that we can
We hold the key in our hands
to make it better, then it wasn't all in vain.
10. 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...
11. 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
12. 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...
