BEYOND THE BLACK LYRICS

1. Is There Anybody Out There?

I climb the rooftops every morning
And search for life there down below
But there is nothing out there for me
There is nothing out there to see
I send a signal for survivors
Requesting help on where to go
But there is nobody else to hear
The only answer I get is fear

'Cause every time that I return to this place I once called home
Yes, every time the walls cry out, you're the last one - you're alone

Oh – is there anybody out there?
There must be someone else like me
Oh – is there anybody out there in the cold?
Come raise your voice and set me free

I wander streets that once were crowded
I'm searching houses that were homes
But there is nothing out there for me
There is nothing out there to see
I'm fighting off the dread that haunts me
But in my empty heart it grows
'Cause there is nobody else to hear
The only answer I get is fear

And every time I raise my head, panic stares me in my face
Yes, every time I try to think, I get trapped inside a maze

Oh – is there anybody out there?
There must be someone else like me
Oh – is there anybody out there in the cold?
Come raise your voice and set me free

Oh – is there anybody out there?
There must be someone else like me
Oh – is there anybody out there in the cold?
Come raise your voice and set me free

2. Reincarnation

I see a trail there, leadin' back through centuries
I feel connections, like the roots below the trees
Whatever tells me I know you from before
It feels like dyin' was just another door

I never cared for the stories they tell
I never thought about heaven and hell
I just remember a life in the past
A life that I lost

(It's like a) Reincarnation, saved from the dead
(It's like a) Reincarnation, life takes us back
(Remember) We'll be forever, endless as time
(It's like a) Reincarnation, my soul won't die

Watch me fly
(My soul up to the sky)
Watch me fly
(It's not my time to die)
Watch me fly
(The dark you see will fade)
(It's like a) Reincarnation, my soul won't die

I'm full of memories from a time I wasn't born
My life, a fraction of a unity that's torn
It all reminds me that there is more than this
Signs over time now that I just can't dismiss

I never cared for the stories they tell
I never thought about heaven and hell
I just remember a life in the past
A life that I lost

(It's like a) Reincarnation, saved from the dead
(It's like a) Reincarnation, life takes us back
(Remember) We'll be forever, endless as time
(It's like a) Reincarnation
My soul won't die

I never cared for the stories they tell
I never thought about heaven and hell
I just remember a life in the past
A life that I lost

(It's like a) Reincarnation, saved from the dead
(It's like a) Reincarnation, life takes us back
(Remember) We'll be forever, endless as time
(It's like a) Reincarnation, my soul won't die

Watch me fly
(My soul up to the sky)
Watch me fly
(It's not my time to die)
Watch me fly
(The dark you see will fade)
(It's like a) Reincarnation, my soul won't die

3. Free Me

You have held my hand in shiver
You have felt my tainted heart
You have witnessed how I wither
Fading slowly into dark

And you've walked into the silence
Where my hope has lost it's voice
I have one thing left to ask for
Grant me this, my final choice

Free me, free me
My love, I want you
To free me, free me
My love, I want you
To free me

Just as much as I adore you
I have fought with all my heart
Now the last time I implore you
Means to lay down all your arms

Will you find this strength within you
Will you help me, I must know
We have dreamt a dream together
Hold me close and let me go

Free me, free me
My love, I want you
To free me, free me
My love, I want you

To save me from drowning - now
I'm losing my mind here - now
The shadows upon me still grow
The fighting is over - now
Release me from evil - now
Come hold me at last and let go

You have walked into the silence
Where my heartbeat used to be
May the love your eyes still show me
Be the last thing that I see
That I see
So

Free me, free me
My love, I want you
To free me, free me
My love, I want you
Free me, free me
Free me, free me
My love, I want you
To free me

4. Winter Is Coming

I see it flying high upon the evening skies
The wings as dark as night, a demon in disguise
Already now, before it reaches us down here
It fills our worried hearts with fear

Whoever hungers won't see many days to come
Whoever has no roof won't be with us for long
Bring in the last few crops that wither in the fields
Before the frost will count our meals

Watch out, winter is coming
Pray to the mother for mercy on our souls
Watch out, winter is coming
Watch as the ice starves the wilting autumn rose
Winter is coming close

Some only know it by the tales the elders told
The blooming years already vanished with the cold
The nights grow longer and hold terrors for the young
And death will sing the winters song

Watch out, winter is coming
Pray to the mother for mercy on our souls
Watch out, winter is coming
Watch as the ice starves the wilting autumn rose
Who knows what follows with the ever endless night
Spare us in these days from the curse of winters blight
Watch out, winter is coming
Pray to the mother for mercy on our souls
Winter is coming close

Watch out, winter is coming
Pray to the mother for mercy on our souls
Watch out, winter is coming
Watch as the ice starves the wilting autumn rose
Who knows what follows with the ever endless night
Spare us in these days from the curse of winters blight
Watch out, winter is coming
Pray to the mother for mercy on our souls
Winter is coming close

5. Into The Light

Reach high – no limits for the brave
You can have it all
Reach high and never hesitate
Never fear to fall
Just fly (just fly) if you don't dare to jump
Then someone else just might
Reach high (reach high) and you shall be the one
To do what others tried

Take off for your flight

Into the light and into the fire
Towards the sun, we soar
Driven by hope, driven by greed
We keep on reaching out for more
Into the light and into the fire
As no one else before
Another dance on razor's edge
We keep on reaching out for more

Into the light

Once more a journey to the sky
Hope keeps us alive
Once more escaping our fate
To higher spheres we rise
Before (before) they catch us on the ground
Nowhere else to hide
Once more (once more) we dive into the clouds
To do what others tried

Take off for your flight

Into the light and into the fire
Towards the sun, we soar
Driven by hope, driven by greed
We keep on reaching out for more
Into the light and into the fire
As no one else before
Another dance on razor's edge
We keep on reaching out for more

Into the light and into the fire
Towards the sun, we soar
Driven by hope, driven by greed
We keep on reaching out for more
Into the light and into the fire
As no one else before
Another dance on razor's edge
We keep on reaching out for more

Into the light

6. Wide Awake

Some kind of curse lies on this place
Where she is bound to live her lonely days
A hundred years may come and pass
Before the roses wither down at last
She's waited long, too long to say
And never fought the force that makes her stay
Some kind of curse lies on this place
And to her silent room she says

In a world out of time out of space
In a prison of thorns and disgrace
I will never surrender my mind
I will follow the path back to life
Cause I'm wide awake
Oh so wide awake
I will follow the path back to life
And I'll survive

Into the dark of sprawling plants
She rips the vines apart with her bare hands
Her fingers bleed, she cannot see
She only feels her longing to be free
Where is the light, where is the day
A million thorns are fighting her to stay
Some kind of curse lies on this place
And with a trembling voice she says

In a world out of time out of space
In a prison of thorns and disgrace
I will never surrender my mind
I will follow the path back to life
Cause I'm wide awake
Oh so wide awake
I will follow the path back to life
And I'll survive
I'll survive

In a world out of time out of space
In a prison of thorns and disgrace
I will never surrender my mind
I will follow the path back to life
Cause I'm wide awake
Oh so wide awake
I will follow the path back to life
And I'll survive
I'll survive

7. Dancing In The Dark

When all things lead to a dead end
A point of no return
When nothing's left but to stand back
And watch the fire burn
I won't surrender my spirit
I won't give up my life
I'll live this day to the last breath
With you all by my side

We've been trying so long
We've been fighting so hard
When all things must perish
And the heavens fall apart
And the heavens fall apart

We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret
We're dancing in the dark
For tomorrow we'll be dead
No fear, no pain
No grief diggin' in my head
We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret

When lightning strikes from a black sky
When hell breaks loose on earth
When oceans rise over landscapes
When all your dams will burst
We won't join into the choir
Of people lashing out
We'll live this day to the last breath
And we will live it loud

We've been trying so long
We've been fighting so hard
When all things must perish
And the heavens fall apart
And the heavens fall apart

We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret
We're dancing in the dark
For tomorrow we'll be dead
No fear, no pain
No grief diggin' in my head
We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret

We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret
We're dancing in the dark
For tomorrow we'll be dead
No fear, no pain
No grief diggin' in my head
We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret

We're dancing in the dark
Dancing in the dark
No fear, no pain
No grief diggin' in my head
We're dancing in the dark
No tomorrow, no regret

8. Raise Your Head

They're running
Driven by fear they are falling in line and holding their place
They're coming
Driven by fear, pushing to keep the pace
They're running
Everyone's game, everybody is hiding deep in their suits
They're coming
Everyone lies, nobody seeks the truth

If you're the only one who will look beyond the mirror
If you're the only one keeping sane

Raise your head
Call your name into a sky of dying stars
Raise your head
The eternity above will change your heart
Don't be scared
Take a step no matter where it's gonna lead
If you stay behind, you will lose your mind
Don't believe a thing they said
So raise your head

Believe me
Open your eyes and the world that you see is ugly but true
Believe me
Open your eyes, no matter what you do
They're running
Chasing a dream, everyone of them holding onto their bate
They're coming
Make up your mind, wake up it's not too late

If you're the only one who will look beyond the mirror
If you're the only one keeping sane

Raise your head
Call your name into a sky of dying stars
Raise your head
The eternity above will change your heart
Don't be scared
Take a step no matter where it's gonna lead
If you stay behind, you will lose your mind
Don't believe a thing they said
So raise your head

If you're the only one who will look beyond the mirror
If you're the only one that remains

Raise your head
Call your name into a sky of dying stars
Raise your head
The eternity above will change your heart
Don't be scared
Take a step no matter where it's gonna lead
If you stay behind, you will lose your mind
Don't believe a thing they said
So raise your head

9. Not In Our Name

There're signs in the water, there're signs in the wind
It's easy to see if you dare
For once close your eyes now and open your mind
And you'll see the truth everywhere

A world full of cynics, filled up with hate
A mankind with nowhere to go
Once born in the fire, we keep up the flame
The world may be dying, but not in our name

Not in our name, not in our name
We call for reason, we're calling in vain
Not in our name, not in our name
Someday you'll wake up and look back in shame
No, not in our name

We've come through the ages, we've gone through the times
And passed our legacy on
For once close your eyes now and search for what's real
The truth that's been there all along

A world full of shadows, filled with despair
A mankind that preys on the weak
The vultures are craving for more of the same
The world may be falling, but not in our name

Not in our name, not in our name
We call for reason, we're calling in vain
Not in our name, not in our name
Someday you'll wake up and look back in shame
No, not in our name

Will we wise up now before we fall
Our backs lined up against a wall
With our last belief, our last attempt
The last of us are standing tall
Standing tall 'til the end

Not in our name, not in our name
We call for reason, we're calling in vain
Not in our name, not in our name
Someday you'll wake up and look back in shame
No, not in our name

Not in our name

10. I Remember Dying

I remember dying here
These walls once held my heart in fear
I shed my life with every tear
And I remember dying here

Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember dying here

No voice to speak what haunted me
No one to catch my gaze and see
What's draining me with every year
'Til I remember dying here
How many trapped inside these walls
How many souls inside these halls
Lost hope like me, their hearts in fear
And still remember dying here

Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember dying here

I remember dying here
In tears nobody chose to hear
You may have washed your conscience clear
But I remember dying here

Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember dying here

Do you remember dying here
