1. Prisoner (Of Your Own Soul)
Lying there in your own dark
World still alive and in pain
Trapped inside closed walls in your mind
Your ball and chain 'til death do you part again
Let me out of here
Let me be free
Starting at the mirror behind your eyes
Who is that you see
Lost in dreams in visions your own
All at once you see now you start to scream
Well I can't break free
From these walls surrounding
Someday I'll be
Who I am and not another
Now I'm feeling so insecure
Always running away from myself
Living a lie inside a prisoner of your own soul
Of your own soul
Slowly you walk down your beaten
Pathway a longer walk today
Still in bonds your own ropes holding
All alone you think of another way
But there's no escape
This false pretense that you're leading
Someday you'll be
Who. you are and not another
Now you feeling so insecure
Always running away from yourself
Living a lie inside a prisoner
Now can't you see this neverending circle
You will always travel
And it's time for you to break free
Another day another way
Will see you through your low existence
You are so all alone a prisoner
Of your own soul, of your own soul
You can't break free you're inside so all alone
The walls you put in your mind
This cell you call home
Desperate and so on the edge I see in your eyes
There's only one way out you'll find
Quit living the lies
There comes a time for decisions
I know
You cannot deny your heart's vision
Escape forever
2. Nightmares
Fear in the night it's a feeling you get
When you look out the window
Turn on the lights running away
From the creatures you make in your mind
Is it real or does this dreaming
'Cause the crazy things you do
Try to hide and the time will come
When you're left all alone
In the dark
You will remain
Sights unseen
Will take you away
Farther and farther
Crying out, out of control
Losing your mind selling your soul for salvation
You think you're going crazy
Walking the white line
Time will give you answers
Just like your favorite story
There is an ending for you
Time will give you answers
Oh just a dream like a night
In the forest the shadows haunting
Screams in the distance
It was a terrible sound
Determined to drive you insane
Is this real or does this dreaming
'Cause the crazy things you do
Try to hide and the time will come
When you're left all alone
In the dark
You will remain
Sights unseen
Will take you away
Farther and farther
Crying out, out of control
Losing your mind selling your soul for salvation
You think you're going crazy
Walking the white line
Time will give you answers
Just like your favorite story
There is an ending for you
Time will give you answers
Now you awake and the sun shines
Through your bedroom window
You have escaped another night
Of prison in your sleep
Oh just a dream like a night
In the forest the shadows haunting
Screams in the distance it was a terrible sound
Determined to drive you insane
In the dark
You will remain
Sights unseen
Will take you away
Farther and farther
Crying out, out of control
Losing your mind selling your soul for salvation
3. No Faith For The Liar
Listen now, you hear but you do not believe
There's a truth but deception seems
To always hold the key
Look into his dark eyes
And know the why behind his lies
This is one you will regret
All your dealings with
Falsehoods get caught in the way
Let the truth be the one that you'll pay
And you'll pay
You are one no one in a world of make believe
I can see the strain on your spiritual being
Deep, so deep is the hole
In which you must crawl out of
How does it feel to hold faith in lies
That you are made of
You always know just what to say
Let the truth be the one that you'll pay
There'll be one time in a landslide
Truth will reign over you
No one notices why be bothered
You yourself so untrue
Complications no relations
Ever walking alone
There's no way out,
But the key be all you can be
Gain my respect and don't try
To change what I can see
Don't involve all that's false
And your stories over
How does it feel to hold faith in lies?
That you are made of
You always know just what to say
Let the truth be the one that you'll pay
Falsehoods get caught in the way
Let the truth be the one that you'll pay
No faith for the liar
No faith for you
And in my eyes, I cannot see
Why you hide out from reality
Your life is so undercover
I'd see and you would not discover
In time and the world will find you
Untrue and lost forever
And in my eyes, I cannot see
Why you hide out from reality
4. As Darkness Reigns
Look into your mind
See a picture of the place we had
So long ago
The world so fine
And Eden not so far away we had
But then we'd fall
Into another world
We'd face a living under a law
Born from society
And the end would come
A fate we chose to deny
In controversy
As darkness reigns
This storming night the end of time
Written history
The call no more signs or borderlines
Written means to be
The cries from the Gods fulfilling evolution
So helpless scream the divine
And dark was the light
Begin prayer to your deliverer
So cold was the world
Gone the light of day such a price to pay
Those, waging wars could never win
The land, the sea, the sky
Songs of life would be lost and forgotten
One time again the fruit of evil taken
Cleaning the world for a new beginning
But for a time darkness will reign
Dark was the light
Begin prayer to your deliverer
So cold was the world
Gone the light of day such a price to pay
Those, waging wars no one should ever win
The land, the sea, the sky
Songs of life would be lost and forgotten
One time again the fruit of evil taken
Cleaning the world for a new beginning
But for a time darkness will reign
5. Paradise (On The Edge Of The World)
Will you see the light at the end of your dreams?
And will the sun be shining bright on you
Fly above this wasted world
And take a glance at reality
Somewhere there's a place worth going to
Not just a fantasy it's always there for you
In desperate times the signs are there just follow
Dark is the blood of the seas the churning waters
Wild this disease so disguised
So take another look around
And pick yourself up off the ground
Search for this place and you will find
Not just a fantasy it's always there for you
In desperate times the signs are there just follow
Your paradise is on the edge of the world
No need for a better place to hide
Your paradise is on the edge of the world
Someplace that you can all be free
Be free with me
I wish you could see where I see
These dark deceptions
There is another way for us to be
So don't wish for another place
Make your place worth living in and hold on
And you will recall this dream
Not just a fantasy it's always there for you
In desperate times the signs are there just follow
Your paradise is on the edge of the world
No need for a better place to hide
Your paradise is on the edge of the world
Someplace that you can all be free
Be free with me
6. Knights Of The Round Table
This time a long time ago far away
In castles they'd rule population
Bearing steel, the knights held the border strong
Highest honors
Loyalty for their King and country
A kind of magic there
Battles would rage and the strong would survive
Life's always lost on the frontline
Fearless eyes shadowed souls
Knights of the Round Table
Holding fortress in measured armor
They stand so all alone
Fear is nothing for knights
With broadswords and banners flying high
Courage in forms no one would ever know
Strength their only salvation
Fearless eyes shadowed souls
Knights of the Round Table
And in death they'd never die
And for truth they'd all survive
All the pride showed in their eyes
All the faith would rule their lives
Now today is such on another time
No more knights to keep this world alive
So look inside your memories
The love and hate
There is knight in everyone
Just let him come forth
And when you feel his presence there
Don't turn and run oh no
The Knight is good, the Knight is fair
They're needed everywhere
Knights of the Round Table
Now the time has come
For the Knights to make a stand
To defend the land
And they will know when
The time has come to disappear
But they're always near
Fearless eyes shadowed souls
Knights of the Round Table
And in death they'd never die
And for truth they'd all survive
All the pride showed in their eyes
All the faith would rule their lives
Now today is such on another time
No more knights to keep this world alive
7. The Watcher
I've come a million years
Just to see you fall
And I've seen a million tears
No love at all
I'm coming going
Always knowing
This place is forever mine
Born of only me
And if the sun shines another day
That's how I meant it to be
I'm still trying to find the answer
Why is this place slowly wasting away?
It's time to turn back your hands
And understand it's not supposed to be
I built the land and sea
In essence of your heaven
But you've thrown the world back at me
A heaven this will be never
I'm still trying to find the answer
Why is this place slowly wasting?
Well I'm calling on your sympathies
Or a lonely world you'll know
Coming going I'm always knowing
I'm in waiting forever watching you
It's time to turn back your hands
And understand it's not supposed to be
Because I am your watcher
I've got my eyes on you
I've been here forever
Where's my love going to?
Because I am your watcher
I've got my eyes on you
I've been here forever
Where's my love going to?
Now it's time for me to leave
I'm feeling rather poor
Don't understand and I can't conceive
This Earth you all must abhor
I'm coming going
Always knowing
This place is forever mine
Born of only me
And if the sun shines another day
That's how I meant it to be
I'm still trying to find the answer
Why is this place slowly wasting away?
It's time to turn back your hands
And understand it's not supposed to be
Because I am your watcher
I've got my eyes on you
I've been here forever
Where's my love going to?
8. Prodigy
Well he was born in fusion with nature
And full of dreams he'd understand
With silent cries pouring his future
From melodies with golden hands
Do what you will this skill your dominion
No search for fame too young to know
And all the while your only companion
A ragged fiddle and a rosined bow
They would know the light you'd shine
All would see you are a prodigy
The skill would from learning starvation
A discipline you'd always know
The time would come a show of sensations
And you would make your deep run shallow
And like the wind across the country
Your presence rules in their open ears
They would hail this music beginning
And wouldn't care to know about the tears
You cried inside when all alone
They'd see you are a prodigy
Now they don't understand
And you're Satan's child
No excuse for the sound that you wield
There's no way that you do the things
God has given you
Taking away the mystery of it all
Now they're leading you here
And they're leading you there
Telling you that your skill does not apply
No just a gift from hell
Watching and waiting they're all under your spell
They would know the light you'd shine
All would see you are a prodigy
Well he was born in fusion with nature
And full of dreams he'd understand
With silent cries pouring his future
From melodies with golden hands
Do what you will this skill your dominion
No search for fame too young to know
And all the while your only companion
A ragged fiddle and a rosined bow
They would know the light you'd shine
All would see you are a prodigy
9. In The End
Since you've been away
I've longed to hold you near
Separation of two hearts
I wish that you were here
And now I feel so all alone
Waiting for the day
That we can be together
This lonely road I travel on
Is leading to you
And now I feel so all alone
But I know we'll meet in the end
Whispers of your name gently in the wind
Wishing for my yesterdays
So I could be with you again
And I miss holding near
To be with you I'll find a way
Now is another day
I still walk this lonely road
So many things are left to say
You hear but .you can't answer
And now I feel so all alone
But I know we'll meet in the end
And I miss holding near
To be with you I'll find a way
I'll find a way in the end
