1. Close To The Sun
Shivers down my spine
I'll live forever
I've never felt like this before, never before
Feel the darkness through my veins
We'll rise together
Otherwise we'll never cross that line
They'll call me liar
Hidden in the tides
Striving to be strong, to be alive
If you won't hold me down
I'll be standing forever and ever by your side
If you won't hold me down
Will you catch me if I fall
Together we will learn
Spread my wings to fly
Sun is getting closer
Searching for the rainbow's end, again and again
This is my last chance to be
A legend forever
Reaching for the mountains of the sky
I will be fire
Shining through the clouds
Fighting to be strong, to be alive
If you won't hold me down
I'll be standing forever and ever by your side
If you won't hold me down
Will you catch me if I fall
Together we will learn
Crimson skies I ride
With my wings I'm growing
In your eyes I'll find my guide into the sun
If you won't hold me down
I'll be standing forever and ever by your side
If you won't hold me down
Will you catch me if I fall
Together we will learn
Show them paradise 'cause hope is leaving
Can't fail, if love is leading us
Back to the start, to the light before the dark
2. Welcome To The Edge
Star-crossed from the start
It wasn't death that did us apart
But my past had left his mark
And the seeds I'd sown had taken root
So we said goodbye
Left the pieces where they lie
In my weakness and your pride
We didn't try to fix what once had been broken
Another time and another life
Maybe you could be mine
But here I stand out on the ledge
So welcome to the edge
Forever in my heart you are
Wherever it doesn't matter how far
Don't tell me not to wait for I don't care
No, I don't care
A beggar
I'm the fool for you
A lover
Waiting for love to come through
This is my pledge
So, welcome to the edge
So I hope and I will try
Make the best our of my life
But until the day I die
Know I'll be praying
I'll be waiting
Maybe you will see
That if you are there with me
Hell ain't such a bad place to be
We can rule the ruins and sleep in the fire
Another world to call our own
You and me on the throne
But here I stand out on the ledge
So welcome to the edge
Forever in my heart you are
Wherever it doesn't matter how far
Don't tell me not to wait for I don't care
No, I don't care
A beggar
I'm the fool for you
A lover
Waiting for love to come through
This is my pledge
So, welcome to the edge
Now that we are here
We both should know
Some things are never long ago
You--you are the one I can't replace
You will remain my favourite mistake
Forever in my heart you are
Wherever it doesn't matter how far
Don't tell me not to wait for I don't care
No, I don't care
A beggar
I'm the fool for you
A lover
Waiting for love to come through
This is my pledge
So, welcome to the edge
Forever in my heart you are
Don't tell me not to wait for I don't care
A beggar
I'm the fool for you
This is my pledge
So, welcome to the edge
3. Hereafter
[originally by DGM]
Outside a dream
Through the abyss of time
Close to the flames
We're burning desires
Edge of a universe
No time to lose
'cause everywhere there's a chance to win
Hereafter we will stand
As a flight of an angel
In the eyes of a stranger
We'll bring back every soul
The land of devotion
This time will be more than words
We're gone with the sin
We're burning desires
Flames in our souls
We have devil's eyes
But we look like the angels
Shaken by the faith into the instinct
No time to lose
'Cause everywhere there's a chance to win
Hereafter we will stand
As a flight of an angel
In the eyes of a stranger
We'll bring back every soul
The land of devotion
This time will be more than words
Losing faith
Desecrating trust
And breaking through into this place
We can spread our feelings
We can say no!
Free to believe in ourselves
Hereafter we will stand
As a flight of an angel
In the eyes of a stranger
We'll bring back every soul
The land of devotion
This time will be more than words
A time with no more words
4. Strong
This fire that's burning deep in our hearts
Is aching, time's passing and we fade away
Come back here, don't go far
I'll be right here just for you
Don't let this melt down in tears and goodbye's
We can go on like this for love
We must be strong
Just don't deny the past we had
We gotta go on
We must be strong
You're trembling, you're crying
Why don't we just close that door
Come here, lay down, don't trust your mind
Come back now, don't let it go down too far
Don't let me on my knees with tears and goodbye's
We're trapped in our past
We should melt like the river into the sea
We can go on like this for love
We must be strong
Just don't deny the past we had
We gotta go on
We must be strong
How do we go that far?
How do we breathe?
I'll be right here waiting
And hoping and praying for you
To come back to me
We can go on like this for love
We must be strong
Just don't deny the past we had
We gotta go on
We must be strong
5. Across The Times
Walking into the fog
And I can't recall all the memories behind
Hiding from all the lies
While I try to emerge into the dust I fall
Calling out
So loud it makes no sound
Finding a new way to remember
Through the night and through the stars
We will be one
Climbing to the heavens we reunite
Through the sun and in the light
We will be done
And finally free across the times
Shining in the dark
Every battle is much easier now
With you by my side
No fear, no compromise
Calling out
Your name above the crowds
Find another way to remember
Through the night and through the stars
We will be one
Climbing to the heavens we reunite
Through the sun and in the light
We will be done
And finally free across the times
Beneath the skies I can see forever
See the struggles we've been through
We'll forger the past with no regret
Through the night and through the stars
We will be one
Climbing to the heavens we reunite
Through the sun and in the light
We will be done
And finally free across the times
6. Riding The Ghost
Lost in the shades of the night
While I walk this road alone
In the darkness I can't feel myself in peace
I don't feel alone
Shades of grey are turned into light
And my monster takes me away
Come with me tonight
Don't you worry
'Cause I rule the night
I am calling
Riding the ghost inside
'Cause I cannot fight it
This is my damnation
Save me, he calls again
Save me from this nightmare
This is my condition
While he calls again...
Coming the dawn, he hides
Whispering words into my ears
While I try to keep on going with my life
You won't ever know
How it feels to ride the ghost
Of your own fears turning real
Come with me tonight
Don't you worry
'Cause I rule the night
I am calling
Riding the ghost inside
'Cause I cannot fight it
This is my damnation
Save me, he calls again
Save me from this nightmare
This is my condition
While he calls again...
7. Light Before The Dark
Even when awake I'm dreaming, living fantasy
Is it what it takes believing
In things that you can't see
Listen to the voices screaming
Names of those beyond
To the silent whispers healing
Those of which we're fond
The cool wind is howling
The emptiness inside me signs in harmony
Our future is drowning
We're in a state of urgency
Show them paradise 'cause hearts are bleeding
Don't let them stop believing in
Light before the dark, the ending and the start
Show them paradise 'cause hope is leaving
Can't fail, if love is leading us
Back to the start, to the light before the dark
Find it in your heart to give
And take just what you need
Maybe we can learn to live
Selfless without greed
Even when awake I'm dreaming
Of a better world
We got what it takes believe it
To turn steel into gold
The cool wind is howling
The emptiness inside me signs in harmony
Our future is drowning
We're in a state of urgency
Show them paradise 'cause hearts are bleeding
Don't let them stop believing in
Light before the dark, the ending and the start
8. Falling Star
Days and nights pass by
The winter is soon over
But all you see is dark
Feel the weight on your shoulders
It's not too late, make a wish
A whisper to the sky
Let it out, let the world know what you want
You have always been a dreamer
Looking out your window
Hunting for the stars
You have always watched the sky
I will make it all come true
I will catch a falling star for you
A falling star for you
You fought your own wars
Ruled your own kingdom
But all you hear is silence
And the shadows coming closer
It's not too late, make a wish
A whisper to the sky
Let it out, let the world know what you want
You have always been a dreamer
Looking out your window
Hunting for the stars
You have always watched the sky
I will make it all come true
I will catch a falling star for you
9. Breathing
So many ways to say goodbye
So many ways to live a life
I'm standing by your side
When it's time to give it a try
In the mirror of my heart and soul
I see what's left behind
Like a scene from my past
I remember those days
And I miss you
When I'm
Breathing - breathing
A brand new day is starting up
But the memories remain
Breathing - breathing
In the silence the voice
In the darkness the light
Shining bright
To enlighten the streets
Red tail lights in the pouring rain
We're just two hearts on separate ways
Lost in my reflection
Searching thoughts from within
Under my feelings - under my skin
A warming voice comes from inside
Reaching the deepest part of me
I'm
Breathing - breathing
A brand new day is starting up
But the memories remain
Breathing - breathing
In the silence the voice
In the darkness the light
Shining bright
To enlighten the streets
Enlighten the streets, yeah!
So many ways to say goodbye
So many way to live a life
I'm standing by your side
When it's time to give it a try
Breathing - breathing
A brand new day is starting up
But the memories remain
Breathing - breathing
In the silence the voice
In the darkness the light
Shining bright
To enlighten the streets
10. Yesterday Is Gone
I never listen to anybody's advice
I never care for what they say
Life always takes you by surprise
In a world of fools that tell only lies
That's the price to pay
Trying to keep myself alive
Trying to be the best I can
Just forget the past
Yesterdays is gone - let me go
It's the call of your soul to let it slip away
Yesterday is gone
I never take anything for granted in life
I never leave any door untried
How can you turn your back and never look behind?
How can you pretend you don't need anyone?
Trying to keep myself alive
Trying to be the best I can
Just forget the past
Yesterdays is gone - let me go
It's the call of your soul to let it slip away
Yesterday is gone - don't look back
I gotta take my weary mind to another shore
Cannot take it back again
Cannot go right to the star
Comes another brand new day
'Cause yesterday's gone
Yesterdays is gone - let me go
It's the call of your soul to let it slip away
Yesterday is gone - don't look back
I gotta take my weary mind to another shore
11. Helen
This night I walk alone, recall you and I
Same sky, the rain gently falls
Wish you were here, like then
If we could go back in time
And change our lives
From dark to light
But I broke our paradise
The angels cry
Where are you now?
Helen
Take me to that silent shore again
Let me show you that I've changed girl
I know we've been walking in a broken dream
Helen tell me that I'm not too late
I won't break your heart again
Oh, Helen
Wake it's time to walk my life without a smile
Who knows where are you now and who can see
Your smile, your eyes
If we could go back in time
And change our lives
From dark to light
But I broke our paradise
The angels cry
Where are you now?
Helen
Take me to that silent shore again
Let me show you that I've changed girl
I know I've been walking in a broken dream
Helen tell me that I'm not too late
I won't break your heart again
12. Distant Skies
I'm trying to ease my voice inside
To find some peace of mind
A man with a vision made his oath
Revolution is my name
Streets of fire and rage
My journey through my fears and sin
Freedom is my law
There's no second chance to give
There's one choice to set me free
This world of lies will fall apart
I'm rising like a thunder
Fight
Keep the flame alive and feed your dreams
Gnosis is the key for us to see
To new horizons, I'll take you there
No matter how far apart we were
Distant skies we'll reach tonight
Everything turns into new shapes of lights
No matter if we are ready or not
Just like seasons people change their skin
Just one reason, just one word
To wash away my thoughts
You told me father, why we are here
In this place that's not our home?
Useless eyes for blinded minds
They won't see, they won't believe
We can make it better
We can learn from yesterday
Fight
Keep the flame alive and feed your dreams
Gnosis is the key for us to see
To new horizons, I'll take you there
No matter how far apart we were
Distant skies we'll reach tonight
Everything turns into new shapes of lights
No matter if we are ready or not
Just like seasons people change their skin
Change my skin
Alone in the rain
Running away
The shadows hide my path
No matter if we are ready or not
To new horizons, I'll take you there
No matter how far apart we were
Distant skies we'll reach tonight
Everything turns into new shapes of lights
No matter if we are ready or not
Just like seasons people change their skin
They won't see, they won't believe
We can make it better
