1. Deceiver Of Fools
He told the tale so many times
About the dream not meant to be
In a world of the free
He plays with your mind
As faith for the future faded fast
He grows strong with their displeasure
It sets him free
Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules with fear
Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules again
He feeds on fear
Poisons the truth
To gain their faith
To lead the way
To a world of decay
He rules your heart
He will sell your soul to the grave
No hesitation he'll make
He belongs to the dark
Please awake
And see the truth
He can only be
If you believe what he tells you
Remember who you are
What you stand for
And there will always be a way
In my heart there is a place
In my heart there is a trace
Of a small fire burning
A sheltering ray shines through this night
Although it 's small, it's bright
But darkness is lurking
He will sell your soul to bitterness and cold
Fear him
Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules with fear
Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
Shall he rule again?
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 wont run,
Have to stare it in the eye
[Chorus:]
Stand my ground, I wont give in
No more denying, I 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 its 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. Jillian (I'd Give My Heart)
I've been dreaming for so long
To find the meaning
To understand
The secret of life
Why am I here
To try again
We'll always
We'll always
See the truth,
When it stares ya in the face
Will I ever
Will I never free my self
Breaking these chains
[Chorus:]
In my heart in my soul
I turn it back it's my fault
Your destiny is forlorn
After the turning sign
In my heart in my soul
I turn it back
And then I've lost
My key on the way
I've been living for so long
Many seasons past me by
I've seen kingdoms through ages
Rise and fall
I've seen it all
I've seen the harbour
I've seen the wonders
Happening just in front of my eyes
Will I ever
Will I never free myself by breaking it right?
[Chorus]
Jillian
Our dream ended long ago
All our stories
And all our glories
I held so dear
We won't be together for ever and ever
No more tears
I'll always be here
'Till the end
[Voices] Jillian
[Chorus]
4. It's The Fear
It awaits for the day
Will let it out
Give it a reason
To give it it's might
Fear of who I am becoming
I fear that I'm losing
The struggle within
I can no longer restrain it
My strength, it is fading
I have to give in
[Chorus:]
It's the fear of the dark
It's growing inside of me
They won they will hunt tonight
Have to save all the love
There is no escaping
Cause my faith is our doom
Hold down your head now
Just let me pass by
Don't feed my fear
Don't want it out
I fear for who I'm becoming
I feel that I'm losing
All beauty within
I can no longer restrain it
My strength it is fading
I have to give in
[Chorus]
Long ago he came to me
I'm ever since that day
Infected with it's rage
For us to take
[Chorus]
5. Forsaken
Now the day has come
We are forsaken this time
We lived our lives
In our paradise
As Gods we shaped the world around
No borderlines
We stayed behind
No boundaries is something fragile
Well we thought we were gaining
We turned back the time
It still slips away
Our time has run out
Our future has died
There's no more escape
[Chorus:]
Now the day has come
We are forsaken
There's no time any more
Life will pass us by
We are forsaken
We're the last of our kind
The sacrifice
Was much to hide
Our grief just made us all go on
We try to hide what we fear inside
Today is the end of tomorrow
As the sea started rise
And the land that we conquered
It just washed away
We all have tried
To turn back the time
It was all in vain
[Chorus:]
Now the day has come
We are forsaken
There's no time any more
Life will pass us by
We are forsaken
Only rules stay below
(Een hoop gebrabbel)
Now the day has come
We are forsaken this time
Now the day has come
We are forsaken
There's no time any more
Now the day has come,
The day has come
6. Angels
Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my saviour
In my time of need
Blinded by faith
I couldn't hear
All the whispers
They're warning 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 a 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
[Chorus:]
The smile when you tore me apart
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
7. Towards The End
[Bonus track]
The turn against
The world we know
Now our destiny
Will be decided
We have to send our brothers in arms
With pain in our heart
We watched them go
Will they return?
Truth is we had no choice
We'll try to shield those we can
No better world
Let this end
Mothers cry
Our boys die
But we'll stand 'till the end
8. 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
It's all about us
Imagine you'd be here
All of my memories
Keep you near
The silent whispers
The 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]
9. Intro
=musical-intrumantal=
10. See Who I Am
Is it true what they say
Are we too blind to find a way
Fear of the unknown
Cloud our hearts today
Come into my world
See through my eyes
Try to understand
Don't wanna lose what we have
We've been dreaming
For who can't deny
It's the best way of living
Between the truth and the lies
[Chorus:]
See who I am
Break through the surface
Reach for my hand
And shout out that we can
Free your mind and find a way
The world is in our hands
This is not the end
Fear is withering the soul
At the point of no return
We must be the change we wish to see
I'll come into your world
See through your eyes
I'll try to understand
Before we lose what we have
We just can't stop believing
Because we have to try
We can rise above the truth and the lies
[Chorus:]
See who I am
Break through the surface
Reach for my hand
And shout out that we can
Free your mind and find a way
The world is in our hands
See who I am
Break through the surface
Reach for my hand
And shout out that we can
Free your mind and find a way
The world is in our hands
This is not the end
Hear the silence
Reach out my blame
Will our strength remain?
If the power rise
[Chorus:]
See who I am
Break through the surface
Reach for my hand
And shout out that we can
Free your mind and find a way
The world is in our hands
See who I am
Break through the surface
Reach for my hand
And shout out that we can
Free your mind and find a way
The world is in our hands
This is not the end
11. Pale
The world seems not the same
Though I know nothing has changed
It's all my state of mind
I can't leave it all behind
Have to stand up to be stronger
[Chorus:]
Have to try
To break free
From the thoughts in my mind
Use the time that I have
I can say goodbye
Have to make it right
Have to find
'Cause I know in the end it's worth while
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away
It will be all right
I know
I should realize
Time is precious
It is worth while
Despite how I feel inside
Have to trust it'll be alright
Have to stand up to be stronger
[Chorus]
This night is too long
Have no strength to go on
No more pain I'm falling away
Through the mist see the face
Of an angel, calls my name
I remember you're the reason I have to stay
[Chorus]
12. Jane Doe
Why, you just won't leave my mind ?
Was this the only way ?
I couldn't let you stay ?
Run away, hide away
the secrets in your mind.
Sacrificed just her life,
for a higher love
No matter how many stones you put inside.
She'll always keeps on floating in your mind.
With every turn of your head you see her face again,
until the end, over and over again.
Why, you just won't leave my mind ?
Was this the only way ?
I couldn't let you stay ?
Told the truth she laughed at you.
Something snapped inside.
She had to go or they would know,
all you tried to hide
The sins of your life are now catching up with you.
You can't stay ahead. There's nothing you can do.
With every turn of your head you see her face again,
until the end, over and over again.
Why, you just won't leave my mind ?
Was this the only way ?
I couldn't let you stay ?
13. Mother Earth
Birds and butterflies
Rivers and mountains she creates
But you'll never know
The next move she'll make
You can try
But it is useless to ask why
Cannot control her
She goes her own way
She rules until the end of time
She gives and she takes
She rules until the end of time
She goes her own way
With every breath
And all the choices that we make
We are only passing through on her way
I find my strength
Believing that your soul lives on
Until the end of time
I'll carry it with me
Once you will know my dear
You don't have to fear
A new beginning always starts at the end
Until the end of time
She goes her own way
14. Candles
Take away,
These hands of darkness.
Reaching for my soul.
Now, the cold wind,
blows out my candles.
Feeling,
only fear,
without any hopr.
A thousand dark moons.
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb.
We trie not to forget,
they live through us.
Slowly they die away at every candle's end
A thousand dark moons.
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb.
We trie not to forget,
they live through us.
Slowly they die away at every candle's end
15. The Other Half (Of Me)
Over the hills, lies a new beginning
Over the hills
Over the hills, there is a way I know it
Over the hills
You can't bring all the gloom
Your heart is frayed and so empty
You glorify the future
Living in a different world than me
The journey ends in death
You are giving up so easily
You are the other half of me
Over the hills [4x]
We are drifting apart
Chilled to the marrow, cause you don't want to go
Cause we've got a different wish at heart
The amulet guides us to the other side
When I go down it's you who'll bleed
I'm not scared to die, as long as I'm with you
You are the other half of me
Over the hills, lies a new beginning
Over the hills
Over the hills, there's a way I know it
Over the hills
16. Ice Queen
When leaves have fallen
And skies turned into grey.
The night keeps on closing in on the day
A nightingale sings his song of farewell
You better hide for her freezing hell
On cold wings she's coming
You better keep moving
For warmth, you'll be longing
Come on just feel it
Don't you see it?
You better believe it.
When she embraces
Your heart turns to stone
She comes at night when you are all alone
And when she whispers
Your blood shall run cold
You better hide before she finds you
Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world
She covers the earth with a breathtaking cloak
The sun awakes and melts it away
The world now opens its eyes and sees
The dawning of a new day
Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world
