1. The Howling
We've been seeing what you wanted and it's fallen right now
Falling asleep from our vanity may cost us our lives
I hear them getting closer, the hounds are sending chills down my spine
Time is running out now, they're coming down the hills from behind
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the lie that we created, I want to be awaken some how (wanna be awaken right now)
When we start killing
It all will be falling down
From the hell that we're in, all we are has faded away
When we start killing
We've been searching on and on but there's no trace to be found
It's like they all have just vanished but I know they're around
I feel they're getting closer, the hounds are sending chills down my spine
Time is running out now, they're coming down the hills from behind
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the lie that we created, I want to be awaken some how (wanna be awaken right now)
When we start killing
It all will be falling down
From the hell that we're in, all we are has faded away
When we start killing
When we start killing
I feel they're getting closer, the hounds are sending chills down my spine
Time is running out now, they're coming down the hills from behind...
The sun is rising, the screams have gone
Too many have fallen, few still stand tall
Is this the end of what we begun
Will we remember what we've done wrong?
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the lie that we created, I want to be awaken some how (wanna be awaken right now)
When we start killing
It all will be falling down
From the hell that we're in, all we are has faded away
When we start killing
When we start killing
When we start killing...
2. Stand My Ground
I can see
When you stay low nothing happens
Does it feel right?
Late at night
Things I thought I put behind me
Haunt my mind
I just know there's no escape
Now once it sets its eyes on you
But I won't run,
Have to stare it in the eye
[Chorus:]
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I've got to face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground
It's all around
Getting stronger, coming closer
Into my world
I can feel
That it's time for me to face it
Can I take it?
Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear
But I won't run,
There's no turning back from here
[Chorus]
All I know for sure is I'm trying
I will always stand my ground
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
3. Angels
Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my saviour
In my time of need
Blinded by faith
I couldn't hear
All the whispers
The warning's so clear
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
Now mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
[Chorus:]
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn to real
You broke the promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie
Sparkling angel
Couldn't see
Your dark intensions
Your feelings for me
Fallen angel
Tell me why?
What is the reason?
The thorn in your eye
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
[Chorus]
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
This world may have failed you
It doesn't give the reason why
You could have chosen
A different path of life
The smile when you tore me apart
[Chorus:]
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
4. Jillian
I've been dreaming for so long,
To find a meaning
To understand.
The secret of life,
Why am I here
To try again?
Will I always,
Will you always
See the truth
When it stares you in the face?
Will I ever
Will I never free myself
By breaking these chains?
[Chorus:]
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul.
I'd turn it back, it's my fault.
Your destiny is forlorn,
Have to live till it's undone.
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul.
I'd turn it back
And then at last
I'll be on my way.
I've been living for so long,
Many seasons have passed me by.
I've seen kingdoms through ages
Rise and fall,
I've seen it all.
I've seen the horror,
I've seen the wonders
Happening just in front of my eyes.
Will I ever
Will I never free myself by making it right?
[Chorus]
Jillian
Our dream ended long ago.
All our stories
And all our glory
I held so dear.
We won't be together for ever and ever,
No more tears.
I'll always be here
Untill the end...
[Voices]
(Jillian, no more tears...
Jillian, no more tears...)
[Chorus]
5. Memories
[Whisper] Memories, memories, memories
In this world you tried
Not leaving me alone behind
There's no other way
I'll pray to the gods: let him stay
The memories ease the pain inside
Now I know why
[Chorus:]
All of my memories
Keep you near
In silent moments
Imagine you'd be here
All of my memories
Keep you near
The silent whispers, silent tears
Made me promise I'd try
To find my way back in this life
I hope there is away
To give me a sign you're okay
Reminds me again
It's worth it all
So I can go home
[Chorus]
Together in all these memories
I see your smile
All the memories I hold dear
Darling you know I love you till the end of time
[Chorus]
