1. Eternal Lies
Hear them preach of eternal life
If you've lived by all their rules
They try so hard to give you shelter
From the cold, cold world outside
They try so hard to get into you
Fear eternal lies
I stand alone
Somewhere between what's right or wrong
If there's a God in heaven from whom the earth was given
I can't believe yet
I can't deny what's going on
Can't stay alive no place to go no place to hide
Keep on searching for the answers
But the more you learn the less you know
I cannot scream and I cannot cry
So tell me why I feel this way
Is it true what they say
There's no way out
And I know it's true
I stand alone
Somewhere between what's right or wrong
If there's a God in heaven from whom the earth was given
I can't believe yet
I can't deny what's going on
Can't stay alive no place to go no place to hide
I stand alone
Somewhere between what's right or wrong
If there's a God in heaven from whom the earth was given
I can't believe yet
I can't deny what's going on
Can't stay alive no place to go no place to hide
Eternal lies, eternal lies
2. Eyes of a Stranger
When you wake up cold and lonely
Can't remember where you've been
It's time to start believing'
In a dream where there's no end
So much pain deep down in your mind
Is it real or is it just an illusion
Can you feel the darkness around you
You are alone but there's someone there
Don't be afraid of what's coming closer
You can't be sure are you lost in a dream
There's no return of what's already started
You don't know are you losing your mind
You're on your own nowhere to go
You need someone to hold on to
You can't go on without faith and belief
Someone is calling you so far away
Fear the eyes of a stranger
You keep on steering through the darkness around you
You feel the presence of an unborn child
His soul is black and so are his tears
The time has come to face the unknown
Locked up in chains you're bound to be scared
Caught in this nightmare there's nowhere to go
Show me the way to the promised land
He reached out just take his hand
You're on your own nowhere to go
You need someone to hold on to
You can't go on without faith and belief
Someone is calling you so far away
Fear the eyes of a stranger
[Solo]
When you wake up cold and lonely
Can't remember where you've been
It's time to start believin'
In a dream where there's no end
So much pain deep down in your mind
Is it real or is it just an illusion
Can you feel the darkness around you
You are alone but there's someone there
You're on your own nowhere to go
You need someone to hold on to
You can't go on without faith and belief
Someone is calling you so far away
Fear the eyes of a stranger
3. Voices Are Calling
Say can you hear me
Can you see me
I'm all alone with no place to go
I've got no answers
To all my questions
It's all the same
They fill my head with lies
I've got no feelings
I can't go on
Living on the edge
Got no reason
To stay alive
When all they say
Is pull the trigger
Life's got no meaning
It's all over now
It's time to go
And leave the past behind
I can't control it
My soul is lost
My heart can't take no more
I feel the fire
That burns so deep inside
No one can save me lost forever
There'll come a time
When I'm forgiven
It's over now
But I'll always be with you
Can you hear the voices callings
They surround you like stars in heaven
Ain't no lie that can't be spoken
Can't believe but I can't deny it
I've got no feelings left to hide
It's not so easy
To make this hard decisions
I've tried so hard
To wash my thoughts away
But all they say is pull the trigger
Can you hear the voices callings
They surround you like stars in heaven
Ain't no lie that can't be spoken
Can't believe but I can't deny it
I've got no feelings left
[Solo]
Can you hear the voices callings
They surround you like stars in heaven
Ain't no lie that can't be spoken
Can't believe but I can't deny it
I've got no feelings left to hide
4. Fading Pictures
I see myself standing beside my bed
Bad thoughts are going through my head
Over and over I think of the past
One good memory came to me at last
Every breath feels like a long long time
Fading pictures are crossing my mind
I want to live my life again
Maybe I will do much better then
I can't feel the pain I think I'm going insane
Heaven... is tomorrow lost to me
Forever trapped within the hour glass
Rising... falling in and out in time
Slowly drowning in the sand
I am all alone in this endless dream
Everyone is different so it has to be
I feel a cold wind blowing through my soul
Heaven is calling so I have to go
Heaven is calling
[Solo]
I have to free my mind
From thoughts that I believed were right
It's very Hard to understand
That this is apart of human life
I can't feel the pain I think I'm going insane
Heaven... is tomorrow lost to me
Forever trapped within the hour glass
Rising... falling in and out in time
Slowly drowning in the sand
5. Morning Sun
See the morning sun
Open up the sky
And shine it's light around The light
Is casting shadows and everything seems so real
In the early morning
So many people cry
They cannot stand the pain
The ones who may believe are the ones who cannot feel
And here it comes so why can't you see
The clouds are moving faster
Making room for the morning sun
So spread your wings and fly
The sun is changing colours
And we open up our eyes
A new day is growing
It's only here for us so why can't we fly away
We are growing stronger
And with time on our side
We are heading for tomorrow
The light is casting shadows and everything is for real
And here it comes so why can't you see
The clouds are moving faster
Making room for the morning sun
So spread your wings and fly
Into the morning sun
[Solo]
The clouds are moving faster
Making room for the morning sun
So spread your wings and fly
Into the morning sun
6. Narrow Minded
7. Stories Around a Tale
Stories around a tale
Faked and vague but oh so frail
Strange vibrations like silent hum
Absent words for the ear so numb
Makes me wonder why
If God would give me wings
I would free my soul from mortal things
Ten miles high above
I would soar the sky leave my past behind
Enter realms where angels fly
Stories around a tale
A broken past that's up for sale
Spit at me you perfect fool
I envy you you godless tool
It makes me wonder why
If God would give me wings
I would free my soul from mortal things
Ten miles high above
I would soar the sky leave my past behind
Enter realms where angels fly
Invigorating thoughts make me live again
Transcendence into light breach the fall of life
Diving through the clouds like a hawk in flight
Supreme
Invigorating thoughts make me live again
Transcendence into light breach the fall of life
Diving through the clouds like a hawk in flight
Divine
If God would give me wings
I would free my soul from mortal things
Ten miles high above
I would soar the sky leave my past behind
Enter realms where angels fly
8. Where Dreams Collide
Hear the warning
Echoes from above
See the dawning
Rise upon the sky
Time leading the blind
Truth untangling your mind
Hear them calling
From the other side
See me falling
Right before your eyes
Time leading the blind
Truth untangling your mind [x2]
Captured at the state where dreams collide
Behold the morning
Sentinel of dew
Sea of visions
Visions of the sea
9. A Mended Rhyme
He sat there so idle just sat on the ground
I watched as he mumbled but I heard no sound
I dared not go closer
I dared not at first but somehow I got there
My son said the father I can not explain
The reason I left you has caused me much pain
I dared not come closer
I dared not at first but somehow I got here
Sometimes I hear them in my mind
Dare I join them now
A mended rhyme at a preset time
Join them now or lose them forever
It's a silent mime
The final chime Just join them now
[Solo]
He did not lift his eyes just sat there and cried
Now I know the words I heard him say
I joined him on my knees and then even I cried
He wiped away my tears that's when I heard him say...
Sometimes I hear them in my mind
Dare I join them now
A mended rhyme at a preset time
Join them now or lose them forever
It's a silent mime
The final chime Just join them now
10. But Angels Shine
From a glade was heard songs of angels that blessed the land
Now the time of their arrival was predicted years ago and now they shine
But angels shine
In the time before the ravings of the dark cloaked men began
Men had lived in peace for ages and they'd lived from of the land
Now their lives all changed from better to a state still growing worse
And the ravings of the cloaked men promised darkness in return
But angels shine
See the bitter heart sow darkness summon clouds to hide the sun and they
Tower up before you and they cover up the sky
Hear them sing their songs of hardship under moon that none can see
Hear them chant, yes hear them raving for the tide to turn on me
But angels shine
Then from far away from a land unknown came a man so thin you could see his
bones 'said when I am gone and the night is still and a few good hearts all
unite in will then they pray along with the prayers of mine and the dark
men fall as the angels shine
11. Trader of Souls
Oh Merchant, yes merchant
The trader of souls
The bringer of darkness damnation and cold
In secret betrayal with cunning and lies
He steals you, deceives you
There's fire in his eye
A strange world of neon of light by your side
There's paradise waiting
The stranger remembers the lines in your face
Through ages that follow his due stays the same
Collecting his children still fire in his
The burning desire consuming their minds
A strange world of neon of light by your side
There's paradise waiting
A long way from grandeur
It's passing you by
Merchant, oh merchant an angel of light
The trader of souls
Believe me he's lying
The trader of souls
Believe me he's dying
The trader of souls
A long way from grandeur
It's passing you by
Merchant, oh merchant an angel of light
The trader of souls
[Solo]
A long way from grandeur
It's passing you by
Merchant, oh merchant an angel of light
The trader of souls
Believe me he's lying
The trader of souls
Believe me he's dying
The trader of souls
12. Power of the Night
[Savatage cover]
Out there coming closer quicker
Moving with a swiftness
Closing in on me
Children of the metal movement
The legions growing stronger
Stronger than they believe
It's a power I'm drawing
From a light that's glowing
Power of the Night
The call of the wild
Power of the Night
Raise the fist of the metal child
Thrashing
Screaming, twisting, banging
Heads upon the platform
The witch has been conceived
Children of the metal movement
The armies growing stronger
Crack my cranium
It's a power I'm drawing
From a light that's glowing
Power of the Night
The call of the wild
Power of the Night
Raise the fist of the metal child
Out there coming closer quicker
Moving with a swiftness
Closing in on me
Children of the metal movement
The legions growing stronger
Stronger than they believe
Thrashing
Screaming, twisting, banging
Heads upon the platform
The witch has been conceived
Power of the Night
The call of the wild
Power of the Night
Raise the fist of the metal child
Power of the Night
The call from the wild
Power of the Night
Power of the Night
