ANTHRIEL LYRICS

1. Devil's Lullaby

Reflecting mirror shows a man
His empty look and filthy hands
The broken picture of his plans
Lies on his feet in splinters

The face reminds me of a boy
Who was always filled with light and joy
He seized the day he got with pride
Keeping fragile hopes so high

He never learned to live
Between this world and his daydreams
Now the child has turned into a beast
Fragile mind and yield into the sin

Every door was open wide
His future shining bright
What faded light out of his azure eyes?

He left doors open wide
Attractions caught his mind
Shadows are dancing devil's lullaby

Stuck in his comfort fantasies
Twisted mind sealed from reality
There's no way out that he could see
Now shadows whisper what will be

Cold piece of metal in his hands
He stares and wants to understand
Is that reflection really me
Or just my minds created beast

Mirror reflects the fact
The closing door behind his back
Now the child has turned into a beast
Fragile mind and yield into the sin

Every door was open wide
His future shining bright
What faded light out of his azure eyes?

He left doors open wide
Attractions caught his mind
Shadows are dancing devil's lullaby

Every door was open wide
His future shining bright
What faded light out of his azure eyes?

He left doors open wide
Attractions caught his mind
Shadows are dancing devil's lullaby

2. Mirror Games

I see strangers all around me
Feel their presence in my sleep
Whispers fill my mind with strange illusions

In the corner of my mind
Friend turns to foe, oh am I blind
Or why is all of this happening?

Beautiful strangers stares my eyes
She speaks softly, but is it lies?
Lost in this maze of distruct like insanity

Empty row of seats before me
In this theater of mirrorgames
Now rise the curtain, let the show begin...

"Welcome see the game were playing
Lose yourself within
Mirrorgame of lost souls praying,
For this darkened world
Lose your mind, let evil come inside"

In this game of masquerade
The mirror seems so strange
I feel the tension in my soul

In this game of hidden lies
Reflection meets my eye
I feel the turn of tide inside

As this game will end I have changed within
All that is left of me, this distorted man,
All that I am

As you enter the game you will face the same
All that is left of you, reflection on lie,
Playing with your mind

3. Guardian

A memory from my past
Reminds me what I once had
Countless days I've searched for something
To remind me who I was then

Now alone I walk the pathway
Newer knowing where I'm heading for
Yet still I'm searching for something
To fill this emptyness within

A scenery from my future
Reminds me what I've done wrong
Countless years I've searched for something
To guide me on my way

Still alone I walk the pathway
Newer knowing what I'm searching for
Yet still I'm waiting for something
To fill this emptyness within

It calls my name
Carries me far from pain
Angel of night beside me
As it shelters my state of grace again,
Come what may...

A glance into a mirror
Reveals me who I am now
Countless days I've searched for something
Which has always been inside of me

It calls my name
Carries me far from pain
Angel of night beside me
As it shelters my state of grace again,
Come what may...

It calls my name
Carries me far from pain
Angel of night beside me
As it shelters my state of grace again,
Come what may...
Come what may...

4. Repression

5. Haven Of Grace

Give your hand to me
Before I fade away
I feel so weak inside

Heal the scars inside
I need to hide
Then make the curtain fall

I'm flying higher
So much higher than before
Reaching the sky above

Something life hurts
Ways you never felt before
Tears pouring from your soul

How will I carry on
If you fade away
I'm alone in the dark

Won't you take me hand
Give some peace for my poor soul
Guide my way once more

I'm flying higher
so much higher than before
Reaching the sky above

Something life hurts
Ways you never felt before
Tears pouring from your soul

There was a time when I was free within my soul

I want to see
A new dawn rise again
Haven of grace
Have passed aside

I sail towards to the land where dreams
awake...

There's a storm up ahead drawing near
Full of power and rage, rising fear

I'm holding on to my life by a thread
Waves rising so high, the end is near

I want to see
A new dawn rise again
Haven of grace
Have passed aside

A new dawn rise again
Haven of grace
Have passed aside
Haven of grace...

6. Dark Divided Minds

Fallen angels
The rite of an ancient calling
The cry of the desperate, crawling alone

Locked inside
The maze of athousand labyrinths
This twisted minds delirium

Now the darkest night draws near,
As the souls keep on drifting
To the edge of this world
Trying to find some peace within

Useless slaying
The madness within is rising
Invisible chaos raging inside

Without warning
The madness within is rising
Invisible chaos raging inside

Now the darkest night is here,
As the souls keep on falling
To that other world
Trying to find a riason for living

Falling to the other side of their divided minds
Circling the turbulent waves, of their dark divided minds

Falling to the other side of their divided minds
Circling the turbulent waves, of their dark divided minds

7. The Deliverance

8. Controversial Euphoria

This life has stoned my fallen tears,
To the path I grumble everyday
Runnin' throught the rolling stones,
Away from the shades of gray

Controversial euphoria
Rushing throught my head
The last piece of humanity
Hanging by a thread

All this time I wanted night to take me
Far away in it's soothing grace,
But now the time I must leave the shadows
Of night behind, come the day

I'm crawling on my knees
Under thy clouds
Gazing up to the sky

So lost within myself
Purifying rain will fall
Wash away this pain

Taken away from my safe and sound cell,
Where I sheltered my poor soul
Lost inside this delirium
Will I be safe out here?

Trapped inside this panic
I nearly lost myself again
The last scent of security,
Like the dust in the wind

All this time I wanted night to take me
Far away from this hellish pain
But now's the time when I must leave the shadows
Of night behind, come the day

I'm crawling on my knees
Under thy clouds
Gazing up to the sky

So lost within myself
Purifying rain will fall
Wash away this pain

Rain falls, let it wash away my pain
Bring a new dawn, where all my fears have gone away

Let the rain fall, let it wash away my pain
Bring a new dawn, where all my fears have gone away

Come the day

9. Light Divine

Rage of the wind is calming, the storm is gone at last
Now I see this strange light in the atmosphere

The clouds I've been dragging with me, are finaly far behind me
And for the first time I've done something right

I'm a puppet of divine hands
They spend their time just pulling the strings of my life
Their laughter is all I hear
As they test my fate by inventing traps in my way

But today I won't cry
Today the angels are by my side
Got to live this day that I hopped and prayed
'Cause tomorrow this all might be gone

Let it harden my shield, let it bless my wings
Let it give me the knowledge to see throught the lies
Let it lighten my load in times of despair
Let it give me the strenght to go on, into the light divine

A blink of an azure sky, reminds of what's behind
Now I feel this warmth inside my frozen soul

The chains I was trapped for so long, are nothing
But distant memories
There's nothing in my way misleading me

I've fallen into their traps
I've risen again to thank for the lesson of life
But this time I can't go wrong
Signs are so clear and I've got this feeling inside

They are loosening their strings
Today I fly with the divine wings
Today I can die with a smile I can't hide
I've finally set myself free

Let it harden my shield, let it bless my wings
Let it give me the knowledge to see throught the lies
Let it lighten my load in times of despair
Let it give me the strenght to go on, into the light divine

Divine

10. Scent Of Dawn

11. Promised Land

Adventurer I am, like any other man
I'd like to be proud of my past
Tools of life in hand,
I search for promised land
To settle down in peace at last.

Once a king a fool for a lifetime
I paid my prize and paid it with pride
People change as they grow old
I refuse until my world is whole

I'm still on my way, but closer day by day
To the land where dreams awake
I'm still on my way,
For years I've searched the way,
Into the land where dreams awake

Most ignore my path,
Some spit their hate in my back
A few have seen behind my mask
Tools of life in hand I search
The promised land
To build a future from my past

Divine or not it's all I got
I followed the signs right from the start
I trust my fate into your hands
To lead me out from my deserted mind

I'm still on my way, but closer day by day
To the land where dreams awake
I'm still on my way,
For years I've searched the way,
Into the land where dreams awake
Into the land where dreams awake

I'm still on my way
I'm still on my way, but closer day by day
To the land where dreams awake
I'm still on my way,
For years I've searched the way,
Into the land where dreams awake

12. Chains Of The Past

Bourned in a place I didn't belong
Surrounded by faces I never used to know
Never used to know

Never learned to trust, never learned to love
I've chained my heart behind cold bars, sealed with scars

An innocent child reaches up to the sky,
He doesn't realize the size of his dreams
Old man always said:
"You can't understand the pain that comes up with a broken dream"

I just have to leave to fullfill my dreams
I just habe to see is out there a task for me

Too long I've been inside these walls,
Too long been trapped behind sealed doors, forevermoore

There's nothing left for my soul to see
I open up the gates and I am finaly free
Finaly free

At one ice cold night, I finally saw a distant
Ship arriving to the shore
Cold tear in her eye, the mother finds a silent
Ship sailing to it's dawn

I just have to leave to fullfill my dreams
I just habe to see is out there a task for me
Is out there a task for me

Chains of the past are fading behind as my
Spirit leads me into my dawn
But how could I leave without a wound in the
Spirit that carries me on

I set my sails at night, a doubt in
Mind as home falls behind.
My journey's just begun,
With head up high I fate this life

I sence a storm drawing near,
Waves keep rising as fear fills
The air
The lightning cracks the sky,
Can't fight it back, just hold on
Tight

Once again I gaze the sunset without a friend
For years I've sought my task to
Fill my emptyness
I've been so lost on my journey,
I've felt my lonelyness growing
I can't go on but I can't go back
Alone I am flowing in the sea of
Desperate dreams
The clouds of reality rolling
After me
Rolling after me

Chains of the past are fading
Behind as my spirit leads me into
My dawn
But how could I leave without a
Wound in the spirit that carries
Me on
Carries me on
Carries me on
Carries me on
Carries me on
