The clouds are gathering around the world - It's the sign of the forthcoming storm. The world is standing in the deathlike cold And silence - nothing can be done. But never give up, keep holding on Oh let this light shine so bright In the dead of the night Light in our hearts is stronger than anything Storm clouds will fade, and sun will shine through Never lose hope, it's key to the symphony Which played for strong and brave ones you knew. Despair in the grievous darkest hour Is whispering words of fear and pain And lightning's flash's revealing cover of The evil. Everything is in vain. But never give up, keep holding on Oh let this light shine so bright In the dead of the night Light in our hearts is stronger than anything Storm clouds will fade, and sun will shine through Never lose hope, it's key to the symphony Which played for strong and brave ones you knew.

Can you tell if you are living your life, And no one's commanding you? Can you say that you decide on your own What to dream or what to do? The world has no choice for me I wanna change it now. Where's the dreams that you longed to fulfill Many-many years ago? Seems like lost in foreign world - and it's time, Time to leave it all behind. Live another day Live it your own way Throw away your fears, don't be afraid Further you will go Easier it will be To light a fire of the long forgotten dream And the road goes on and on and on New horizon lies ahead Wind is blowing straight into my face I am free as one can be Live another day Live it your own way Throw away your fears, don't be afraid Further you will go Easier it will be To light a fire of the long forgotten dream

Fear grows deep inside me, Darkness fills my mind And tears me apart. I feel, that i am human no more. Lost the game The spell controls me, I can't be myself once more. No more light Inside black chamber, No way to escape - i'm gone. Mirror in the black hall You have sucked me dry. But why? Tell me, why? Why do you obey me no more? Lost the game The spell controls me, I can't be myself once more. No more light Inside black chamber, No way to escape - i'm gone. Just a shade in twilight shadows, Puppet of the black mirror. But why? Tell me, why? Why should i be the slave of your sins? I've lost the game.. Can't resist The spell controls me, I can't be myself once more. No more light Inside black chamber, No way to escape - i'm gone.

Green Fairy 04:53
Hey, throw it all away No more sorrow I will show you wonders At the end of the rainbow Let the magic begin, Just one more shot And you will see The path to set you Free. Potion's so sweet, And you are lost, Charmed by the Green Fairy. Leave the burden of your life Far away I'm still waiting for you At the end of the rainbow Let the magic begin, Just one more shot And you will see The path to set you Free. Potion's so sweet, And you are lost, Charmed by the Green Fairy. Magic charms will last just for few hours And soon you'll find it all gone. Ask yourself if life, spent under the charms Worths other things, give a try, give a try..

The sun is fading under blood-red sky, The reign of day is over Night soon will break free. They wake in the eerie glow of moonlight Forgotten souls, beyond our sight. World, that's gone forever Long ago, lost in their Eyes, that shine with mystery. Last remaining shadows Of lost time Whisper in the moonlight. Surprised you're waking in the morning. Can't understand your feelings, And where d'you get these thoughts. Inside your mind the voice is calling For the night, to rise at your side. World, that's gone forever Long ago, lost in their Eyes, that shine with mystery. Last remaining shadows Of lost time Whisper in the moonlight. So hear their voice, Sharing their yearning, Gift they're giving to you. Hear their voice, Sharing their memories - Sacred secrets from past time.

Lantern's shining in the dark, Spreading dull dim light, Waking up the memories Of that dreadful night. The picture stands still before my eyes - The black sails appeared. Can't see no living one on board, The ship's drawing near. And we've seen them - ghosts came in our sight Darkest silhouettes edged by pale light. And they have sailed so many miles Into the dark. Cursed till the very end of times Just as he asked. There was a brave lionhearted captain Many years ago In his pride he chased after The glory of his own Once he sailed the dreadful storm Of the fury unseen. "These black waves will bring death for us all!" The men yelled near. "I'll go through, damn!" the captain said on his way "Even if I have to sail until the doomsday!" And they have sailed so many miles Into the dark. Cursed till the very end of times Just as he asked.

Sleep 03:56
Brilliant light's Shining bright he's Sleeping in starlight What is on his mind? And what's he waiting for We'll hardly ever find Before the time will come. Never moved, Never breathed, he Lies in his shrine's crypt. No one ever broke The peace of holy place And only stars still talk Unknown his name remains And the legend say he will awake When the skies will fall on us from high Above. World won't be the same. No, changed forevermore.

Winter Night 03:12
The murky city sinks in The snowy haze. Snowflakes keep falling down weaving veil of peace and grace. Just another evening comes and passes by. The silver moon glances at me from the sky. The murky city sinks in The snowy haze. Snowflakes keep falling down weaving veil of peace and grace. Just another evening comes and passes by. Loneliness looks into my eyes Come, take me in your arms And save me from the Cold. So damn cold nights would've gone forevermore. Sitting upon the window Time after time. Maybe i'm waiting for a miracle or some wierd sign Though it's very much sensless, Somewhere deep inside I'm still waiting for someone to come tonight Come, take me in your arms And save me from the Cold. So damn cold nights would've gone forevermore.

Where do we go? What's the reason we were born? Questions with no answers are asked long ago. I'm not a god To know the truth, Eternal quest for knowledge calls me. Unending roads Waiting for you. Secrets of the universe are countless and we'll never know them all. Blindfolded run In the labyrinths of the world - Trials of these turbulent times for us all I'm not a god To know the truth, Eternal quest for knowledge calls me. Unending roads Waiting for you. Secrets of the universe are countless and we'll never know them all.

The Way 04:10
Somewhere far away, Far far away from here, Where fairy tales are so real I, I wanna wake one day I wanna make my way to the magic realm. My way will be revealed The chains will be gone one day And i will soon disappear. I,And I will wake one day To be right on my way to the magic realm And the star will shine in the sky this night Guide me from the dark, save from evil And this distant light warms me in my heart As the way moves on to the dreamland. As the time comes to close my eyes I feel no sorrow, inside my mind.
