1. Abandon (4:52)
I'm waiting for a train
To take away the pain and ease my mind
I hear the tracks squeal
It makes me want to scream and let the world know how I feel
One way journey, no need for a seat
I'm beat, I won't be coming back
And what I'm learning, this life will be turning
Around at the end of the tracks
Freedom, the life of a drifter
Who know, if I'll ever find home
When its time to go I'm already there
I'm never scared, I'm living one day at a time
Freedom is my crime
Another hazy night
Nothing is in sight, no hope in the air
Would I leave behind
All that's on my mind, would I forget, would I dare
One way journey, no need for a seat
I'm beat, I won't be coming back
And what I'm learning, this life will be turning
Around at the end of the tracks
Freedom, the life of a drifter
Who know, if I'll ever find home
When its time to go I'm already there
I'm never scared, I'm living one day at a time
Freedom is my crime
The sun ain't burning the skies are blue
For me it's a sign to move on
And what I hear has made it so clear
I'm heading towards the new dawn
Freedom, the life of a drifter
Who know, if I'll ever find home
When its time to go I'm already there
I'm never scared, I'm living one day at a time
Freedom is my crime
To take away the pain and ease my mind
I hear the tracks squeal
It makes me want to scream and let the world know how I feel
One way journey, no need for a seat
I'm beat, I won't be coming back
And what I'm learning, this life will be turning
Around at the end of the tracks
Freedom, the life of a drifter
Who know, if I'll ever find home
When its time to go I'm already there
I'm never scared, I'm living one day at a time
Freedom is my crime
Another hazy night
Nothing is in sight, no hope in the air
Would I leave behind
All that's on my mind, would I forget, would I dare
One way journey, no need for a seat
I'm beat, I won't be coming back
And what I'm learning, this life will be turning
Around at the end of the tracks
Freedom, the life of a drifter
Who know, if I'll ever find home
When its time to go I'm already there
I'm never scared, I'm living one day at a time
Freedom is my crime
The sun ain't burning the skies are blue
For me it's a sign to move on
And what I hear has made it so clear
I'm heading towards the new dawn
Freedom, the life of a drifter
Who know, if I'll ever find home
When its time to go I'm already there
I'm never scared, I'm living one day at a time
Freedom is my crime
2. Unbreakable (4:37)
Reckless wheel of time
We follow how it flies by
We still keep believing
In wide and comforting lives
When is our turn
Together we stay stronger
We lay still and silent and watch how hour burns for eternity
You carry me away
Tomorrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
This moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and mind, so you make me whole
I want to live a second forever, always together, forevermore
I hold my breath and wait
Reckless wheel of life
We see how years keep flying by
I never really cared until I opened my eyes
The final day awaits
And the final storms getting closer
Under burning stars we will seal our fate for eternity
You carry me away
Tomorrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
This moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and mind, so you make me whole
I want to live this second forever, always together, forevermore
I hold my breath and wait till the end
until morrow we're unbreakable
You carry me away
Tomorrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
This moment is unbreakable
And I can feel it deep within my heart and mind, so you make me whole
I want to live this second forever, always together, forevermore
We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore
We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore
I hold my breath and wait till the end
until morrow we're unbreakable
We follow how it flies by
We still keep believing
In wide and comforting lives
When is our turn
Together we stay stronger
We lay still and silent and watch how hour burns for eternity
You carry me away
Tomorrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
This moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and mind, so you make me whole
I want to live a second forever, always together, forevermore
I hold my breath and wait
Reckless wheel of life
We see how years keep flying by
I never really cared until I opened my eyes
The final day awaits
And the final storms getting closer
Under burning stars we will seal our fate for eternity
You carry me away
Tomorrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
This moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and mind, so you make me whole
I want to live this second forever, always together, forevermore
I hold my breath and wait till the end
until morrow we're unbreakable
You carry me away
Tomorrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
This moment is unbreakable
And I can feel it deep within my heart and mind, so you make me whole
I want to live this second forever, always together, forevermore
We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore
We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore
I hold my breath and wait till the end
until morrow we're unbreakable
3. Stand My Ground (4:14)
This is my way, these are my rules
These are my rhymes, this is my song
Don't take me for some bloody fool
For I still dream, you can't hurt me, I'm strong
You can try to bring me down, to keep me down
I will rise and I'll keep fighting
There's no way you can break my will
My dreams are guiding my every step
I have a destiny to fulfill
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
I need to see where it leads
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
no one can bring me down
You can try to bring me down, to keep me down
I will rise and I'll keep fighting
There's no way you can break my will
My dreams are guiding my every step
I have a destiny to fulfill
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
I need to see where it leads
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
no one can bring me down
and I will stand my ground,
no one can bring me down
These are my rhymes, this is my song
Don't take me for some bloody fool
For I still dream, you can't hurt me, I'm strong
You can try to bring me down, to keep me down
I will rise and I'll keep fighting
There's no way you can break my will
My dreams are guiding my every step
I have a destiny to fulfill
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
I need to see where it leads
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
no one can bring me down
You can try to bring me down, to keep me down
I will rise and I'll keep fighting
There's no way you can break my will
My dreams are guiding my every step
I have a destiny to fulfill
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
I need to see where it leads
No one can bring me down
I will defend my beliefs
And I will stand my ground
no one can bring me down
and I will stand my ground,
no one can bring me down
4. Halcyon Days (5:30)
What I feel inside my mind
Is driving me insane
It's so hard to explain
What lies behind it all, what goes around
So I'm twisting here within loneliness
And all the pain inside now
Don't matter anyhow
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days
I will try to avoid it all
But they try to pull me back
If I try will I fall off this track
I don't care cuz I'm free
I'm still twisting here within loneliness
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days
And all the pain inside now
Don't matter anyhow
There's something in the air...
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days
Is driving me insane
It's so hard to explain
What lies behind it all, what goes around
So I'm twisting here within loneliness
And all the pain inside now
Don't matter anyhow
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days
I will try to avoid it all
But they try to pull me back
If I try will I fall off this track
I don't care cuz I'm free
I'm still twisting here within loneliness
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days
And all the pain inside now
Don't matter anyhow
There's something in the air...
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days

6. Out of the Fog (6:58)
Black day is dawning
All prayers unanswered, laid to rest
If there's a god he ain't here now
In daunting darkness we will march
Towards the end with desperate hearts
Too tired to hope, too scared to dream
Let innocence fade, make no sound
Let blood that we'll shed stain the ground
No turning back now, the orders are clear
It's time to attack, let the shadows appear
Heeding the call, brave, standing tall
Relentless and ready to die
There's fear in the wind, there is death in the air
Thousands of souls screaming out in despair
Falling for honor, dying for freedom
Making the last sacrifice
Rising higher flames will burn
A mournful choir of souls that yearn
Red rain is falling
Baptized in blood and sin we see
Everyone was someone's son
A soldier fighting for someone
Just a man defending what he believes in
If we found out that we were betrayed
Misguided and fallen from grace
No turning back now, the orders are clear
It's time to attack, let the shadows appear
Heeding the call, brave, standing tall
Relentless and ready to die
There's fear in the wind, there is death in the air
Thousands of souls screaming out in despair
Falling for honor, dying for freedom
Making the last sacrifice
Rising higher flames will burn
A mournful choir of souls that yearn
Let innocence fade, make no sound
Let blood that we'll shed stain the ground
No turning back now, the orders are clear
It's time to attack, let the shadows appear
Heeding the call, brave, standing tall
Relentless and ready to die
There's fear in the wind, there is death in the air
Thousands of souls screaming out in despair
Falling for honor, dying for freedom
Making the last sacrifice
Rising higher flames will burn
A mournful choir of souls that yearn
All prayers unanswered, laid to rest
If there's a god he ain't here now
In daunting darkness we will march
Towards the end with desperate hearts
Too tired to hope, too scared to dream
Let innocence fade, make no sound
Let blood that we'll shed stain the ground
No turning back now, the orders are clear
It's time to attack, let the shadows appear
Heeding the call, brave, standing tall
Relentless and ready to die
There's fear in the wind, there is death in the air
Thousands of souls screaming out in despair
Falling for honor, dying for freedom
Making the last sacrifice
Rising higher flames will burn
A mournful choir of souls that yearn
Red rain is falling
Baptized in blood and sin we see
Everyone was someone's son
A soldier fighting for someone
Just a man defending what he believes in
If we found out that we were betrayed
Misguided and fallen from grace
No turning back now, the orders are clear
It's time to attack, let the shadows appear
Heeding the call, brave, standing tall
Relentless and ready to die
There's fear in the wind, there is death in the air
Thousands of souls screaming out in despair
Falling for honor, dying for freedom
Making the last sacrifice
Rising higher flames will burn
A mournful choir of souls that yearn
Let innocence fade, make no sound
Let blood that we'll shed stain the ground
No turning back now, the orders are clear
It's time to attack, let the shadows appear
Heeding the call, brave, standing tall
Relentless and ready to die
There's fear in the wind, there is death in the air
Thousands of souls screaming out in despair
Falling for honor, dying for freedom
Making the last sacrifice
Rising higher flames will burn
A mournful choir of souls that yearn
7. Castles in the Air (6:02)
When the day turned into night
When the stars run out of light
Will you be there to sing my song
I call your name
To maybe shield the flame
Cause the night is dark and long
In the kingdom of the visible
In the kingdom of the sun
Was a man who saw the years go by
He was always on the run
And the clock ticks fast for everyone
Father time wins every race
And the kingdom of the fading sun
It'll pass without a trace
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere
There's a small black hole inside my heart
And it's just the size of you
And the road goes on forevermore
And we will turn to dust
Holding on to hope against the hope
While the silence rages on
We would like to try to shield the flame
While we climb a burning rope
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere
When the day turned into night
When the stars run out of light
Will you be there to sing my song
I call your name
To maybe shield the flame
Cause the night is dark and long
When the stars run out of light
Will you be there to sing my song
I call your name
To maybe shield the flame
Cause the night is dark and long
In the kingdom of the visible
In the kingdom of the sun
Was a man who saw the years go by
He was always on the run
And the clock ticks fast for everyone
Father time wins every race
And the kingdom of the fading sun
It'll pass without a trace
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere
There's a small black hole inside my heart
And it's just the size of you
And the road goes on forevermore
And we will turn to dust
Holding on to hope against the hope
While the silence rages on
We would like to try to shield the flame
While we climb a burning rope
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But maybe there is no one to answer your prayer
Our castles in the air
We build them in despair
But you can help me smile on this road to nowhere
When the day turned into night
When the stars run out of light
Will you be there to sing my song
I call your name
To maybe shield the flame
Cause the night is dark and long
8. Dragons (4:04)
You wanna go to heaven but you never want to die
A silent scream for freedom turn to
Fire turn to water turn to
Stone's the same, the sky's the same, it doesn't roll away
The other side where life goes on is
Close and yet you know it's just a lie
But you're stronger than they are
Feel the wind in your hair
And you're faster than they are
And it feels that you're lighter than air
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you gaze at the sky
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you cry
And all the wicked prisons that they built inside your mind
And all the wicked borders that unite us, that divide us, until
Death ever different will embrace us in the end
But roll away the stone, and hear the
Wind will whisper out your name
But you're stronger than they are
Feel the wind in your hair
And you're faster than they are
And it feels that you're lighter than air
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you gaze at the sky
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you cry
A silent scream for freedom turn to
Fire turn to water turn to
Stone's the same, the sky's the same, it doesn't roll away
The other side where life goes on is
Close and yet you know it's just a lie
But you're stronger than they are
Feel the wind in your hair
And you're faster than they are
And it feels that you're lighter than air
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you gaze at the sky
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you cry
And all the wicked prisons that they built inside your mind
And all the wicked borders that unite us, that divide us, until
Death ever different will embrace us in the end
But roll away the stone, and hear the
Wind will whisper out your name
But you're stronger than they are
Feel the wind in your hair
And you're faster than they are
And it feels that you're lighter than air
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you gaze at the sky
When you're drawn to the ground by the dragons
Would you raise up your head, would you cry
9. One Must Fall (4:28)
Take all that I have left
Take everything I have spared for you
Tear down all my veils
Tear down 'til you see my naked core
Burn down my Eden
Burn down all that I had built for you
Save me-it is all that I have
Spare me-or we all will be damned
Save me
One must fall- and stay in the shadow
There's no thrall- no hope, no salvation
One must fall- under the black rainbow
Fight no more and maybe there is a better day
But in the end no one will be saved
Bring down the rain on us
Bring it down so we can drown in the flood
Harvest the seeds I've sown
Harvest until you have drained my blood
Save me- what are you fighting for?
Spare me- or there's no tomorrow
Save me- your reign is no more
Save me
One must fall- and stay in the shadow
There's no thrall- no hope, no salvation
One must fall- under the black rainbow
Fight no more and maybe there is a better day
But in the end no one will be saved
But in the end no one will be saved!
Take everything I have spared for you
Tear down all my veils
Tear down 'til you see my naked core
Burn down my Eden
Burn down all that I had built for you
Save me-it is all that I have
Spare me-or we all will be damned
Save me
One must fall- and stay in the shadow
There's no thrall- no hope, no salvation
One must fall- under the black rainbow
Fight no more and maybe there is a better day
But in the end no one will be saved
Bring down the rain on us
Bring it down so we can drown in the flood
Harvest the seeds I've sown
Harvest until you have drained my blood
Save me- what are you fighting for?
Spare me- or there's no tomorrow
Save me- your reign is no more
Save me
One must fall- and stay in the shadow
There's no thrall- no hope, no salvation
One must fall- under the black rainbow
Fight no more and maybe there is a better day
But in the end no one will be saved
But in the end no one will be saved!
10. If the Story Is Over (6:06)
Once upon a time I was the scribe of all my dreams
I've seen the years turn into dust, now feel the rust in me
I've walked the shores of Avalon, I've seen the seasons change
I've laughed and cried, I've lived and died, but only on the page
Now all I have, all I am
All I ever was is here, on the page
It's all the same, it never mattered anyway
It's all a lie so let it burn
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
I hope it's not too late to learn to live and learn to love
I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark
For I never drew the sword from stone, there's no Helen in my Troy
I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void
Come night, test my will, test my soul
Test my faith and test my heart, torn apart
Make me strong, make me whole again and
Guide through the dark 'til the morning comes
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
I've seen the years turn into dust, now feel the rust in me
I've walked the shores of Avalon, I've seen the seasons change
I've laughed and cried, I've lived and died, but only on the page
Now all I have, all I am
All I ever was is here, on the page
It's all the same, it never mattered anyway
It's all a lie so let it burn
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
I hope it's not too late to learn to live and learn to love
I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark
For I never drew the sword from stone, there's no Helen in my Troy
I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void
Come night, test my will, test my soul
Test my faith and test my heart, torn apart
Make me strong, make me whole again and
Guide through the dark 'til the morning comes
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
11. Nemesis (6:33)
The night turns to dawn
The city's left behind
Those who've been blind they will be saved
White stripes on the road they're guiding my way
Reciting my prayers the road is paved
Through all the years I've carried the flame
In the darkest nights as the lightning strikes
I'm bringing hope to those who walk in the shadows
As I drive alone
My mission is unknown
Will it be revealed for me cause
Now I'm calling out for
Power- streaming through me
I will let out the angel or the beast
This power- will make you see
As the lightning strikes your pain will be released
Free me- that's what I hear you
Screaming- in misery
Free me- from this pain while
Screaming- kneel before mighty
Power- my power
This power- my power
Calling out for
Power- streaming through me
I will let out the angel or the beast
This power- will make you see
As the lightning strikes your pain will be released
Free me- that's what I hear you
Screaming- in misery
Free me- from this pain while
Screaming- kneel before mighty
Power- my power
This power- my power
The city's left behind
Those who've been blind they will be saved
White stripes on the road they're guiding my way
Reciting my prayers the road is paved
Through all the years I've carried the flame
In the darkest nights as the lightning strikes
I'm bringing hope to those who walk in the shadows
As I drive alone
My mission is unknown
Will it be revealed for me cause
Now I'm calling out for
Power- streaming through me
I will let out the angel or the beast
This power- will make you see
As the lightning strikes your pain will be released
Free me- that's what I hear you
Screaming- in misery
Free me- from this pain while
Screaming- kneel before mighty
Power- my power
This power- my power
Calling out for
Power- streaming through me
I will let out the angel or the beast
This power- will make you see
As the lightning strikes your pain will be released
Free me- that's what I hear you
Screaming- in misery
Free me- from this pain while
Screaming- kneel before mighty
Power- my power
This power- my power
