1. Beyond the Dark Sun
... For years I have travelled in coldness,
But my heart is warm as the darkened sun above me...
Nothing can ever take away
What I've seen with these tired eyes
Face of the weeping night
And the shade of the fading light
The dawn will never rise again for my eyes
And I will never sleep again
I've lost my hope time after time
'Cause the light has vanished from the sky
Now when the darkness has become part of me
I got to let my shadows free
'Cause I never looked behind, I never tried to find
Something that could have made me one
Now when the sorrow has taken control of me
I got to let my shadows free
'Cause I never looked behind, I never tried to find
Something that could have made me one
Something that I could reach the Sun
2. Battle Against Time
... I'm sailing away to undiscovered seas ...
I see a golden light shining far away
I can't tell if I'll make it there someday
I reach my hands but there's no one on my path
I can't sleep 'cause my body is burning
Cold sweat, cannot breath, I'm loosing my mind
Reflection in the mirror shows a different man at night
And as hours and seconds pass by
I feel my every feeling wither and die
Do I really feel this pain
'cause sometimes I can't tell if I'm awake
Watching to the night, the hope is gone
Carrying so much burden in my heart
Watching to the night with tired eyes
Waiting for nothing all my life
Battle against time
I... battle against time
I am covered with cold ice, I am flying in the black skies
Fighting everyday, but it feels like, it's just the same
Oh time... you cut my heart and soul
You carve my will and passion of life
3. Sleeping Stars
Oh sleeping stars, why are you so sad tonight
Oh sleeping stars, will you shine for me tonight
Oh sleeping stars
Can you see them float in the night sky
Can you hear those echoes of their sweet cries, creating a tune
Can you see them shine so bright
Can you feel their loneliness through their cold light, touching you
My eyes feel so heavy when the stars are calling me
- Join with us eternally -
I'm falling in deep trance and my powers are weakening
I'm falling in a world between dreams and reality
I am now alone in the silent light
and there's nothing but darkness around me
Deeper into unknown the strange light is guiding me
Wake me until it's too late
Suddenly I feel a warmth go through my body
But I feel that a part of me has died, I sense the change in me
I must have been away so long
So please stay with me for a while
4. Beautiful Death
My face turned pale before the cold eyes of death
My body was frozen by the stare from the dark
I don´t want to think of anything, but there´s storm of thoughts in my head
I wasn´t prepared for this, ´cause I´m not ready to die
Nothing could have prepared me for this
Nothing but blood so red and deceased
Nothing but pain, I fall on my knees
Tormenting demons, I suffer and bleed
Only way out is through window of dreams
The rain whips the lonely and crushed soul
The dark clouds are closing fast, the wind is blowing the colours of life
away
The growing shadow will darken my dreams, and with the fire inside me it
feeds
I´ll be screaming in the stars when it´s over
Storms are raging on the path to home, once so silent and calm
the desperate glare of the dark light is cast on the fallen one
And when the illusions sigh no more, the journey to new dream will carry on
´Cause life is just a beautiful death
Life turns a new and strange page
They will try to take everything away from me
5. Death and the Healing
A windstorm dropped a bird from the sky
It fell to the ground and it's wings broke and died
But when the time got by, back to sky it flied
'Cause the wings healed in time and the bird was I
Time is the death and the healing
Take your last breath, 'cause death is deceiving
Time is the past, now and tomorrow
Days fly so fast and it leaves me so hollow
A snowstorm blew inside a wolf's eyes
And the frozen tears covered all the mountainsides
But then the time got by and the wolf died
And someday that wolf would be I
6. Winter Madness
Divine creations now destroyed to uncover the haunted atmosphere
Strange visions of the ancient spirits, travesty of man appears
Coldness and the storming winds lurking for prey
The forces of the Winter reign in dreadful way, there´s no escape
I´m following the mistress of night
Through the gates of snow we´ll fly
We´ll fly
Winter - The realm of eternal ice
Snowfall and darkness descends upon the vales of time
Distant caress of the sun´s fading light
The lands were painted white with the Winter´s might
My hands are frozen, my mind is at the edge of madness
Oh how many nights and days, I´ve been lost in this land of sadness
From the primitive thoughts, under the glimmering snow
and burning stones - they´ll rise -
The artful spirit: "You don´t have to die,
you can rule in afterlife, just concede your soul to me,
(your life is cheap) - no price -"
