BEYOND THE BLACK LYRICS

1. In The Shadows

Now we’re standing here together
At the crystal borderline
All my memories are shattered
Nothing’s left of what was mine
I’m tryin’ to hold you
But you slip away
A candle cannot burn forever
To whom am I to pray

[Chorus:]
Up we rise | Into the night
We’ll never die | In the shadows
We can break | Out of these days
Darkness will blaze | In the shadows
Our kingdom will come
When our dreams can grow wild
Up we rise | Into the night
We’ll never die | In the shadows

It’s so hard to kill the demons
When they live inside your heart
Don’t give up to find your fortune
When you don’t know where to start
So come here and take me
I’m already gone
In a second life beside you
Is where I want to belong

[Chorus.]

Up we rise | Up we rise | In the shadows

[Chorus.]

2. Songs Of Love And Death

Come and join my voice in songs of love and death
Come and feel me, steal me, save me from myself
All my longing, wandering heart is yours to have
Come and join my voice in songs of love and death

Tonight we’ll start off our story told
From this day on we’ll watch our lives unfold
Kisses of fate on my shivering skin
You touch my heart and reach for the soul within

[Chorus:]
Come and join my voice in songs of love and death
Come and feel me, steal me, save me from myself
All my longing, wandering heart is yours to have
Come and join my voice in songs of love and death
Songs of love and death

Tonight our fortune will turn her wheel
I’ll close my eyes and listen to what I feel
And when the dawn breaks for you and me
Then we will turn to more than we both could be

[Chorus 2x]

3. Unbroken

When the shades grow deeper
And the darkness reaches out
When the night comes crawling
And the silence grows too loud
When the past won’t fade away
Nothing left to win
I have all my soul to give
I will not give in

[Chorus:]
I’m unbroken
I’ll spread my wings
Fly above the winter winds
I’m unbroken
I won’t give in
To the realms of
Heavenly Kings
Hear the songs the angel sings
I’m unbroken
I’ll spread my wings
Fly above the winter winds

Every heartbeat, every breath
Will show my will to fight
Every scar upon my skin
A path into the light
When the past won’t fade away
Nothing left to win
I have all my soul to give
I will not give in

[Chorus 2x]

4. When Angels Fall

I got lost in the dark
On the trail of your fading heart
All these dreams left to die
On our way to a broken sky
I see what we left and the bridge is about to burn
A step and I reach for your soul, there is no return

[Chorus:]
When angels fall
Fall, fall, fall into the never
When angels fall
Come, come, come into the never
When angels fall
Fall, fall, fall into the never
When angels fall
Come, come, come into the never
When angels fall, will you hear us
We’ve fallen from heavens shore
Come, come, come into the never
When angels fall into ashes and dust
Will you hear us call
Come, come, come into the never
When angels fall

You are far, but somehow
You’re still holding the darkness out
Where you are, I’m with you
I’m still hearing the voice I knew
From shadows to hallows, the bridge is about to burn
You’re love all that mattered to me, there is no return

When angels fall
Fall, fall, fall into the never
When angels fall
Come, come, come into the never
When angels fall
Fall, fall, fall into the never
When angels fall
Come, come, come into the never
When angels fall

[Chorus]

5. Pearl In A World Of Dirt

When the night shapes secret dreams
that I cannot change
When the moon weaves tender silk to veil the day
Then I know you’ll make the magic feel so alive

When the stars send gentle words I wish I could say
Then I hear your heart a thousand miles away
You are always in my dreams, my reason to live
You are always in all my dreams, my reason to give

[Chorus:]
You are my pearl in a world of dirt
I will be yours forever
You are my flame, my heat, my spark
Like a fire in a world so dark
You are my pearl in a world of dirt
This love cannot be measured
You’re my escape from a world of hurt
My delight in a world absurd
You’re my pearl in a world of dirt

When your heart began to sleep I wished I could pray
When your soul went up to start her final way
I woke up to find my world no longer alive

When the stars speak gentle words I wish I could say
Look into my eyes a million miles away
‘Cause I’m still here in your dreams, your reason to try
And I know here in my dreams our love will survive

[Chorus]

You’re my pearl in a world of dirt

6. Hallelujah

Drown into | These hands of fate
Without a sound | And celebrate
Shinin’ like | The brightest skies
Cross your hearts | And keep the faith
Look into the mirrorball
Loose everything | And take it all
Sing hallelujah and encore
Forevermore

We run | Into the unknown
Far from | What they call life
Somewhere | Must be another aim

One day | We’ll come together
Under | A beautiful sign
Every dream | Is one night away

[Chorus:]
Sing! | Hallelujah | "Sing! | Hallelujah | Sing! | Hallelujah
Celebrate the night
Sing! | Hallelujah | Sing! | Hallelujah | Sing! | Hallelujah
Forevermore

Meet me | Beyond in the twilight
Million | Lifetimes ago
Then our | Imprisoned minds unfold

Night flight | across endless meadows
Bonfires | Arrows and bows
We found us and it feels like home

[Chorus 2x]

Look into the mirrorball
Loose everything | And take it all
Sing hallelujah and encore
Forevermore

7. Running To The Edge

Winter winds are cold and heartless
A lonely whisper in the darkness
Wait for me beyond the shades
‘Cause in this world I’m bound to fade
Leave a trail for me to find
I will leave this world behind

[Chorus:]
I am running, running, running to the edge
Racing off the silver ledge
Running, running, running to the edge
I’ll take you away, I’m gonna take you away
I am running, running, running to the edge
Find the door and break the catch
Running, running, running to the edge
Straight to the edge, you’re going straight to the edge
Of the world, of the world, of the world
Running to the edge

All I am and all I cared for
All my restless soul was there for
Somewhere far, too far to feel
And nothing more is left to steal
Send a sign for me to find
I will leave this world behind

[Chorus 2x]

8. Numb

[Chorus 1:]
Incipe memoriam | Incipe abicere
Desiste ab memoria | Let me go numb
Omitte nunc dolores | Quid agis nihil moror
Retineri non possum | Let me go numb

You were so good a liar
And I was so in love | That I invited in the pain
I had to learn with fire | After a flame is snuffed
Only the ashes still remain

[Chorus 2:]
Now that I finally see you
As you are | Must I be forced to see you
In every scar?

[Chorus 1]

Practicing blackest magic
You cast a spell on me
That even today is hard to break
While it was turning tragic
Part of me stayed deceived
Part me clung to my mistake

[Chorus 2]
[Chorus 1]

If I’m to survive | Make a new life
I need to become | Totally numb

[Chorus 2 2x]
[Chorus 1]

9. Drowning In Darkness

Like a fallen leaf my life turns light to grey
And the golden rays of daylight fade away
Nothing left I wouldn’t give for one more day
For one second I could hope that you might stay
I’m not getting on | You kept me strong
Every single day I die

[Chorus:]
I’m drowning in darkness | (Forever)
Forsaken behind these eyes
The demons of nightfall | (Forever)
Awaken behind these eyes
And soon they will harvest
The spark of life behind these eyes

You will break me apart | I am lost in the dark [2x]

In the whisper of the night you’re still with me
In the shades of morning light you’re all I see
And the rage within my tears won’t find a way
I can’t help but search for hope that you might stay
I’m not getting on | You kept me strong
Every single day I die

[Chorus]

Not long ago, you told me to be strong for you | (Strong for you)
But since you’re gone, there’s nothing to hold on

[Chorus]

Behind these eyes
You will break me apart | I am lost in the dark [2x]

Like a fallen leaf my life turns light to grey
And the golden rays of daylight fade away

10. Afraid Of The Dark

Every night, I try to run, but in vain
Anytime I stop, it all starts again
In the shadows I cast | Silhouettes of the past
Every day, I lie and say that I’m cured
Even though I know they’re just empty words
If there’s nowhere to turn | Am I destined to burn?

Who is | My salvation
When | No one’s aware I’m at war

[Chorus:]
Under this skin | I feel a stranger, her sadness and her rage!
Under this skin | I hear her screaming and rattling her cage!
Fight her! Fight it! | I’m afraid of the dark!
Fight her! Fight it! | I’m afraid of the dark!
Fight her! Fight it! | I’m afraid of the dark inside me!

Every year, I pray that I’ll be released
On my knees, I beg and plead for some peace
And the answer’s the same:
I’m consumed by her flames

Who is | My salvation
When | No one’s aware I’m at war

[Chorus]

Give me the light that I need to defeat the dark!
Give me the light that I need to escape!

If we | Cursed instead of | Blessed,
Help me | Lay us | Both to | Rest

[Chorus]

11. Fall Into The Flames

The darkest night | Can’t close my eyes
Sleep is weak | I’m hypnotized
It’s do or die... | I feel your heat

I think it’s time to tear through these chains

[Chorus:]
We’re gonna fall into the flames
And everglow
Yeah we’re gonna fall into the flames
I feel the smoke
Breathe it in
We can’t stop, there’s no running
Can’t stop, almost burning
Fall into the flames
And everglow, you’re my everglow

I see the fire spread
Two silhouettes
Sinking deep, inside my chest is a world below
They say we’re self-destructing
But hell we gotta do something
Nothing oh nothing
Doin' nothing
Is never gonna break through these chains

[Chorus]

Tonight we’re raging inside
All we know, all we know tonight
Is that we’re raging inside
Inside | Inside

The darkest night
Can’t close my eyes
Sleep is weak

[Chorus 2x]

12. Love Me Forever

[originally by Motörhead]

Love me forever or not at all
End of our tether, backs to the wall
Give me your hand, don’t you ever ask why
Promise me nothing, live ‘til we die

[Chorus:]
Everything changes, it all stays the same
Everyone guilty, no one to blame
Every way out, brings you back to the start
Everyone dies to break somebody’s heart

We are the system, we are the law
We are corruption, worm in the core
One of another, laugh ‘til you cry
Faith unto death or a knife in your eye

[Chorus]

Love me or leave me, tell me no lies
Ask me no questions, send me no spies
You know love’s a thief
Steal your heart in the night
Slip through your fingers, you best hold on tight

[Chorus]
