DRAGONLAND LYRICS

1. As Madness Took Me

I never thought that I would see the truth behind the lie
So now I've opened my eyes
Now I must find the reason
I leave my sanity behind

Madness took my mind

Someday you'll see and you will believe me
I'm the one who will set you free
So open your mind and rid this world of insanity
From the vanity

I stare out into nothing, thinking what we have done
Just don't understand why all this came to be
What have we done to be to be rulers of all
How it tears my mind apart

Someday you'll see and you will believe me
I'm the one who will set you free
So open your mind and rid this world of insanity
From the vanity

The bruises on my wrists are bleeding more and more
I'm pulling harder trying to break free
Suddenly I realize I can't move
Thinking of the good times as I am falling asleep

2. Starfall

Astray I have wandered
I have been haunted
By the fear that's been holding me down

But the heavens sing your silent cry
And they whisper

A sleepless starlight
To grant you a world beyond your sight
Hear the calling of

The sign of truth - starfall lights your eyes
The wish it hides - is in your mind
The hope of life - when astral angels cry
Truth and lies - starfall eyes

I hear the calling of a thousand lights
Sing to me
They've been singing to me

A sleepless starlight
To grant you a world where you belong
A world beyond your mind

Forever, this is the moment of surrender to
To the calling of

The sign of truth - starfall lights your eyes
The wish it hides - is in your mind
The hope of life - when astral angels cry
Truth and lies - starfall eyes

Sign of truth
Wish it hides
Hope of life
Starfall eyes

3. Calling My Name

Rain's falling down from blackened clouds
Blazing storm of chill
The sky is torn from lightning and from rage
There is no shelter from the wrath
God-forsaken force
I'm standing drenched and soaked in ice so cold

Can it be
It's my fate
All this blazing hate?

See as I fall
So deep into the sky
The spirits are calling my name
They beg me to free them someday
I will be sane

Snow's falling down from clouds above
Tearing down the sky
I must release the spirits now

Raging hate
Is my fate
Is it all too late?

See my scarred body and mind
As I'm laughing at the sky

See as I fall
Into the sky
Lightning is burning my soul

See as I'm thrown
Into the deep blue sky
No spirits are calling my name
I'm begging to be freed from pain
I am no more

4. In Perfect Harmony

From the dark days of my life
I have walked a lonesome road
Just can't reach the light that others have
How is it that I can't see
How to live my life and learn
I've reached the point of no return

I've got to grasp the opportunities
When they're close at hand
And I've got to realize
My memories must burn

Set me free and let me see
All the beauty in this world
Give me hope, make me believe
That I can change this world and be
Forever free in harmony with life

Sometimes errors I have done
When my judgement has been wrong
As my mind's been set my heart's been gone
I have travelled by myself
Like a lone wolf I have strayed
I have to open up my eyes

I've got to grasp the opportunities
When they're close at hand
And I've got to realize
My memories must burn

Now I can see
The dark clouds are gone
My mind has been set free
No more I'll stray

I've got to grasp the opportunities
When they're close at hand
And I've got to realize
My memories must burn

Set me free and let me see
All the beauty in this world
Give me hope, make me believe
That I can change this world and be
Forever free in harmony with life

5. The Dream Seeker

For so long have travelled, I have fought
Now the road is at an end
I've climbed the highest mountains
Seen the sea beyond the hills, I'm alone with a dream

I have to go
Release all my bonds
Forever I'll search

Oh, I can't go on, the last drop of my strength
Silently falls to the ground
No, I just can't break, I have to keep on going to the end
I am alone with a dream

I have to go
Release all my bonds
Forever I'll search
For my own dream

Now I hope to see what
What I will become
If I see with my own eyes
This is my time
To overcome my fears
Doubt has me in its grasp
I must believe that my wish
Will come true in the end
It has to end

I've fought my own thoughts
I have struggled to keep my head clear
I have vanquished the night
Clouding my sight now I know
Now I know...

For so long I have journeyed, I have strayed
Now the road is at an end

Now all my bonds
Are gone, I'm released
Forever I'll search
I've my own dream

Now I can see what
What I have become
I see with my own eyes
Now it's my time
No longer drowned by fear
No, there isn't any doubt
I just believed that my wish
Would come true in the end
This is my end

6. The Shores Of Our Land

Silence - after the battle all is still
Slaughter - yet another mission is fulfilled
Now we begin our journey to our home
Crossing the oceans with sails set abroad

Dragonships they carry us
From coast to coast
Where have we been, what have we done
What have we won?

As our struggle for this time is over
Know that we must depart soon again

Dragonships they carry us
They take us home
Where have we been, so far away?
A price we must pay

See the shores of our land
At last we're home
Beloved ones greet us now
We hold them close in our arms

Our homecoming brings ease to your hearts
But for the fallen we must pray

Behold the horizons, the seagulls are calling
The harbour of our home is now in sight

[Johanna Anderson:]
Embrace me now, and hold me close
Look into my eyes and say
That you will always remain
Here by the shores of our home

Close to the morning we set sail again
Tears in the eyes of the ones we hold dear

Dragonships they carry us
They take us home
Where will we go, so far away?
A price we must pay

[Johanna Anderson:]
A silent hymn for you, for my love
As you depart from me
Oh, this is goodbye, but I'll be here
On the shores of our land

7. The Returning

Forever we go into the glorious light
And there is no turning back for us, forever more
Together we rise, we will become strong again
And we'll be forever true or die

When we fight it is for all mankind
For life, forever more

Help us to be the future, to reach the stars
And to be embraced by light
If we just stand together then we might break
The chains, help us fight

Again they shall see we won't fall into eternity
To be gone without a trace

When we fight it is for all mankind
For life, forever more

So please help us to be the future, to reach the stars
And to be embraced by light
If we just stand together then we might break
The chains, help us fight

For the future, now reaching for the stars
So be the light and guide us right
To free us all

Forever we go into the glorious light
And there is no turning back for us, forever more
Again they shall see that we won't fall into eternity
To be gone without a trace

Cause we fight and it's for all mankind
For life, eternally

So please help us to be the future
Reach the sun and to be lit up by light
If we just stand together then be might cheat death
Help us fight

8. To The End Of The World

The heavens are burning down tonight
To the end of the world we have arrived
But as constellations pass us by
Civilizations shall once more rise to die

Evolution and insanity
We've been building our own destiny
We can no longer see the lights inside
Evolution and insanity
We've been building our own destiny
There's no reasons left behind

There's no way to turn the tide
If we don't care to walk that extra mile
Mother Earth is losing all her pride
We must remember that life is more than just a file

So hold on to me for one last time
The sun ceases to shine and slowly goes down
Don't let me go, we're all we've left now
As this world goes down
Down into flames

Ash falling down, rain burns my skin
Rivers run black and the trees are withering away

So hold on to me for one last time
The sun ceases to shine and slowly goes down
Don't let me go, we're all we've left now
As this world goes down
Down into flames

9. The Book Of Shadows Part I: A Story Yet Untold

[Instrumental]

10. The Book Of Shadows Part II: The Curse Of Qa'a

In my dreams I see a land of might
One ruler, I see the image of myself so bright

Beneath an ocean of sand
I have been buried with my love

I will sleep for ages
But a shadow in my mind
Haunted by the memories
Of what has been left behind
But in thousands of years
You will come here
And release me from my slumber

11. The Book Of Shadows Part III: The Glendora Outbreak

[Instrumental]
