1. Whistler's Tears
Sits all alone
on a rock at the coast
betrayed and misled
vengeance on his mind
searching for eternal oblivion
he'd never forgive them
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
When they came to him to ask for help
they promised a big reward for his efforts
but how could he know that they'd cheat him in the end
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
So he led the rats into the sea
to release the city from the agony
but when he eventually asked for his gold
they chased him away
but he trusted lies
he fixed a plan to take revenge
to let them bleed for what they had done
So come, my children, I'll guide your way
follow me to my kingdom of hate
leave your families far behind
for damnation is all they'll ever find
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years...
2. Out of My Head
How can it be that you're not at my side
I'm still pretending that you've not gone away
Tears from my eyes are flowing silently in streams
The day will come when I will understand
I've asked myself a thousand times why did she go?
I miss you anyway remembering your smile
See your face everywhere and anytime
Still I don't know what ever happened to you
Get out of my head-
I still miss you
Get out of my head-
I'd wish you were here
(When I wake up at night I feel so strange
Cause in my dreams we're not yet apart
But I have to realize that life goes on without you
Although it's hard to take, but I will make my way)
How could I know that you`re so far away
I swear you for that I’ll take revenge
Then you`re here with ya knees on the ground
There`s no chance and now it’ll end
3. The Reaper
This black-dressed man was following you
You know him from your dreams
He is the reaper, calling for you
your time is over it seems
The scythe in his old hand
glittering in the moonlight
He's calling your name
and takes you by the hand
Can you hear him- as you start your journey
Can you hear him- your mind is turning black
Can you hear him- he's the voice in your head
Can you hear him- he helps you to forget
Your way through the neverlands is long and hard
full of desire to come to an end
make sure the reaper will take you with him
life now is over, take your last breath
you reached the gates, now all life has an end
Nothing left to lose in this game
the time is right to fulfill your fate
your candle of life has burned down
you walk along the road of damnation
soon all miracles will make sense to you
you pass the gates of wisdom
but now it is too late
staring into the moonlight
can't get you out of this misery
Can you hear him- as you start your journey
Can you hear him- your mind is turning black
Can you hear him- he's the voice in your head
Can you hear him- he helps you to forget
4. Intrunocti
5. Nightmare
The sun was going down
As he opened his eyes
The bell was chiming seven times
The air outside
Was frozen like ice
The last day came to his mind
The price for his life was insanity
A voice in his head starts whispering
Backwards he stumbles right into a chair
A strangled cry suddenly
voices start to speak
Voice of Evil
Voice of Lies
beneath the shattered remains of his soul
it all turns to black
-Take my life but let me go
"I won't make it that easy for you"
why won't you ease my pain?
"You made mistakes, but you're only human,
Hallow me, I'm your lord"
Voice of Evil
Voice of Lies
Beneath the shattered remains of his soul
It all turns to black
6. Transformation
I never wanted to end it this way
Been working hard each day for my family
But when I awoke this morning
A strange transformation had been done
All my life I’ve been the one
Who had to bear the responsibility
But now I’m worthless, only vermin
I think I’m now to leave this world
Artificial, that’s what I am
Abandoned, among the likes of me
There’s none who could understand me
And deep inside, I feel so empty
As I’m dying, yet in peace
I’m still crying, can’t you hear
And as the breath o life slowly fails me
My sister’s picture’s on my mind
Been sitting in my chamber
Here for ages, no sense of life
Come closer, take a look at what
I’ve become eventually
As I’m dying, yet in peace
I’m still crying, can’t you hear
And as the breath o life slowly fails me
My sister’s picture’s on my mind
7. Dream of Light
Live your dreams
Follow your heart
Seize the day and search
For your single way
Try to keep your promise
Or you will be one of them
just a memory of your former life
your sorrow will be gone with the night
So dare to dream your dream of light
Don’t miss a thing just hold on tight
Out in the distance live your life
Because one day you’ll return
Never be like someone else
Or you will soon be dead
Open your mind
And face your dreams
Just try to keep your destiny alive
just a memory of your former life
your sorrow will be gone with the night
8. Eternal Winter
Darkness surrounding me
Can’t see no flickering light
Damned for all times
And eternally
I miss the dawning of the day
Threatening shadows all around
Take my spirit to the sky
For I lost all of my faith
Here in the shadows
All life now has an end
Faces turn into grey dust
The pain that I feel
I miss the dawning of the day
Threatening shadows all around
Take my spirit to the sky
For I lost all of my faith
For I lost all of my faith
Eternal winter
Eternal winter
Walking through the shadows
No hope for escape
Traveling through wastelands
Where none dares to go
Emptiness inside me
Praying for my soul
all my faith is lost
but I’m still searching for the sun
I miss the dawning of the day
Threatening shadows all around
Take my spirit to the sky
For I lost all of my faith
9. Drifting Away
Trapped inside this dark room
outside there's nothing but silence
My mind is so empty
I am abandoned
My head's full of sorrow
I see them right behind me
There’s nothing left to loose
Yet I'm still alive
My heart's bleeding
Can’t hide my pain
Time's running away
There’s no sense at all
Could this just be a dream
A real hurting one
My will is broken
I just want to rest in peace
I'm so tired of being lonely
My sense of life is lost
What will be next
Can’t expect the unexpected
(I'm so tired of being lonely
Can’t expect the unexpected
Now I'm flying to heaven
But I'm drifting away)
My heart's bleeding
Can’t hide my pain
Time's running away
There’s no sense at all
