"Back In The Picture"

There were times in my life I was down on my knees, now it's over
Deep inside my heart I know
Simply put I've been stabbed in the back ever since I remember
Deep inside it hurt to let go

I'm back in the picture, back in the picture
I wonder what took so long, so long

Dedicate everything I create
To my friends I would die for
But you will always be the one
Memories that you can't overrun, memories I could cry for
I thought I'd always be on the run

"Funeral Song"

I dumped you again
I don't understand
It's happened before
Can't take it no more

These foolish games
Always end up in confusion
I'll take you back
Just to leave you once again

I died in my dreams
What's that supposed to mean?
Got lost in the fire
I died in my dreams
Reaching out for your hand
My fatal desire

I've failed you again
'Cause I let you stay
I used to pretend
That I felt ok

Just one big lie
Such a perfect illusion
I made you mine
Just to hurt you once again

I died in my dreams
What's that supposed to mean?
Got lost in the fire
I died in my dreams
Reaching out for your hand
My fatal desire

"Shot"

Tonight we escape
just you and me
we'll find our peace
somewhere across the seas?

enough of the fright
enough of the fuss
I'll be awake if he finds us
needless to say
I'll stand in your way
I will protect you
and I...

I'll take the shot for you
I'll be the shield for you
needless to say
I'll stand in your way
I'll take the shot for you
I'll give my life for you
I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot for you
for you

tonight we'll be free
I'll find us a home?
tonight we will be
finally on our own

enough of the hell
enough of the pain
I won't let him touch you
I love you
needless to say
I'll stand in your way
I will defend you
and I'll....

I'll take the...

enough of the scars
enough broken hearts
I will protect you
and I..

I'll take the shot
I'll make it stop

I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot

"Night After Night (Out Of The Shadows)"

Heaven sent you, to bring the answer
Heaven sent you, to cure this cancer
For a moment
Unbeatable chance
For a moment
The world in my hands

Like an angel you came
Everytime when I prayed
Guardian of my dreams
Watching me when I sleep
Like an angel you came
Everytime when I screamed

Time after time I lose again
Night after night I wake up shaking
'Cause my world is breaking
I'm fool enough to fall again
Night after night I wake up crying
'Cause I feel like dying

Still disconnected and unprotected
Still I'm haunted but unwanted
For a moment unbreakable stars
For a moment you stayed in my arms

Like an angel you came
Everytime when I prayed
Guardian of my dreams
Watching me when I sleep
Like an angel you came
Everytime when I screamed

Time after time I lose again
Night after night I wake up shaking
'Cause my world is breaking
I'm fool enough to fall again
Night after night I wake up crying
'Cause I feel like dying

Time after time I lose again
Night after night I wake up shaking
'Cause my world is breaking
I'm fool enough to fall again
Night after night I wake up crying
'Cause I feel like dying

(Time after time I lose again)
Night after night I wake up shaking
'Cause my world is breaking
I'm fool enough to fall again (Fool enough to fall again)
Night after night I wake up crying
'Cause I feel like dying

"No Fear"

Girl,
You lived your life like a sleeping swan
Your time has come
To go deeper

Girl,
Your final journey has just begun
Your destiny chose the reaper

No Fear
Destination Darkness
No Fear
Destination Darkness
No Fear

Girl
The rain falls down from the northern skies
Like poisoned knives
With no mercy

Girl
Close your eyes for the one last time
Sleepless nights
From here to eternity

No Fear
Destination Darkness
No Fear
Destination Darkness
No Fear

"Lucifer's Angel"

Behind those eyes lies the truth and grief
Behind those beautiful smiles I've seen tragedy
The flawless skin hides the secrets within
Silent forces that secretly ignite your sins

[Chorus:]
Fly away, fly away
From the torch of blame
They hunt you
The Lucifer's Angels
Never lived, you never died
Your life has been denied
They call you
The Lucifer's Angel

Beyond these clouds you can hide all your tears
Beyond this world you'll be safe from their wicked fears
And in their hearts they fear your demands
You know their minds won't accept you, they'll never understand

[Chorus]

On your own I know you can make it
Truth or bone. I know you can shake it
Survive alone I know you can take it

[Chorus]

Fly away, fly away
Run away, run away
Hide away, hide away
Lucifer's Angel
[x3]

"Last Generation"

We stopped and left the car
The last thing I can recall
A raging wave of light
Vaporised all this life
And we ran into the field
Incapable to breathe

Rest in peace it's all over now
It's the end of salvation
Memories in the photographs
Of the last generation
Of the last generation

I've seen this in my dream
A petrified family
Pointing hands at me
Victims of the tragedy
Dust replaced their souls
Hearts turn into stones

Rest in peace it's all over now
It's the end of salvation
Memories in the photographs
Of the last generation
Of the last generation

Dust replaced their souls
Minds turned into stone

Rest in peace it's all over now
It's the end of salvation
Memories in the photographs
Of the last generation

Rest in peace it's all over now
It's the end of salvation
Memories in the photographs
Of the last generation
Of the last generation

"Dead Promises"

The break of dawn kills all the beauty
The dead of night is drifting away
Should I stay and welcome the day
Or should I follow the one and hide from the sun

The ray of light cuts like a razor
The blazing fire burns in my eye
The day reveals the dreadful betrayer
And his wicked mind.
Hide from the sun
And Hide from the Sun
Hide
Hide from the Sun

Dead promises
Paintings of the world so pure
Ancient prophecies
Remains of the worlds so cruel
The time has come
To hide from the sun

Like a rat I run to the darkness
The ray of night embraces my mind
Afraid to look back into the heartless
World of dust and blood
I'll hide from the sun
Hide
Hide from the sun
Hide
Hide from the Sun

Dead promises
Paintings of the world so pure
Ancient prophecies
Remains of the worlds so cruel
The time has come
To hide from the sun

I know me better
I won't be as bitter
In my own heaven
I'll be gone forever
Won't fall back never
I won't crack ever
Won't look back never

Dead promises
Paintings of the world so pure
Ancient prophecies
Remains of the worlds so cruel
The time has come
To hide from the sun

"Immortal"

Strange signs
Crooked signals
Strike down
The last aerial

Heaven's bending
Below, the world begins to break
Life is ending
Time has come to escape
Down to the chambers

Drink this blood and we'll become immortal baby
This love is breaking the one last bond

We chose the silence
Hatred, cruel violence
We should be ashamed
We had a chance that we ignored
And now it's too late the end is knocking on the door
Ready to claim us

Drink this blood and we'll become Immortal baby
This love, is breaking the one last bond

Surrender to my love
Sacrifice your soul
Your picture in the frame
is fading like a ghost
Never say goodbye
Never be alone
Never say goodnight
Never say die

Drink this blood and we'll become Immortal baby
This love is breaking the one last

Drink this blood and we'll become Immortal baby
This love is breaking the one last

Immortal love is breaking the one last bond

"Sail Away"

Once upon a time we had a lot to fight for
We had a dream, we had a plan
Sparks in the air, we spread a lot of envy
Didn't have to care once upon a time

Remember when I swore
My love is never ending
And you and I will never die
Remember when I swore
We had it all
We had it all

I'll sail away, it's time to leave
Rainy days, are yours to keep
Fade away, the night is calling my name
You will stay, I'll sail away

Once upon a time we used to burn candles
We had a place to call a home
The dream that we lived
Was better than divine
Every day was like a gift
Once upon a time

Remember when you swore
Your love is never ending
And you and I would never die
Remember when you swore
We had it all
We'd never fall

Sail away, it's time to leave
Rainy days are yours to keep
Fade away, the twilight is calling my name
You will stay, I'll sail away

No reason to lie
No need to pretend
I'm grateful to die
To live once again
I'm fearless to fly
And reach for the end
And reach for the end
ohhohhhohhhohhh...

Sail away

Sail away, it's time to leave
Rainy days are yours to keep
Fade away, the night is calling my name
You will stay, I'll sail away

Sail away
The night is calling my name
Sail away

"Keep Your Heart Broken"

Enfolding your love in my heart
By the dawn I'll be gone
The road keeps us apart
For some time I'll be gone

You promised to swallow your tears when I leave you
You promised to follow the leads I will give you
You said you would crawl in the dark from the laughter
You said you would long after me ever after

My love will grow black if your heart gets stolen
Just promise to keep your heart
One day I'll come back if the door's still open
Just promise to keep your heart broken

Days go by like the wind
And this life is too short
It makes no sense to give in
To release you from my thoughts
I promised to write you, I'll always remember
I promised to try to be back 'til December
I said I must go, I must face this disaster
I said I would come after you ever after

My love will grow black if your heart gets stolen
Just promise to keep your heart
One day I'll come back if the door's still open
Just promise to keep your heart broken

If you just promise to keep your heart
Promise to keep your heart broken
If you just promise to keep your heart broken
Broken

My love will grow black if your heart gets stolen
Just promise to keep your heart
One day I'll come back if the door's still open
Just promise to keep your heart broken
Forever and after my love
Just promise to keep your heart broken

"Heart Of Misery"

I don't want to feel anything today
(I don't want to feel anything today)
Anything at all and just be alone
(I just want to know that you want to know)
I don't want to live through another day
(I don't want to live through another day)
Meaningless to fight for the victory
I just want to dive in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

I will never be anything again
(I will never be anything again)
I'm tired to give, I don't want to try
(I'm afraid to live, I'm afraid to die)
I just want to fly, throw it all away
(I just want to fly, throw it all away)
Meaningless to fight for your sympathy
I just want to drown in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

One man forgot to breathe
One heart refused to beat
One love is incomplete

One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, One fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

Ah ah, ah ah
In the heart of misery
Ah ah, ah ah
In the heart of misery

"Don't Let Go"

Don't let go...don't let go...don't let go

Holding my breath as i walk to your garden
Everything seemed so abandoned
Roses have grown just as high as a mountain
Fireflies glow in the dark

Dont let go now (don't let go)
Somebody is lying

Everyone came to the final revival
It's been a year since we've been here
The spell has been cast to welcome the arrival
The phantom of silence is near

Dont let go now (don't let go)
The garden is dying
These wounds wont heal (don't let go)
Somebody is lying

Break the spell of emptiness
And thousand year of loneliness
Bless the path of righteousness
And walk the trails of holiness
The garden is dying
Somebody is lying

Dont let go now (don't let go)
The garden is dying
These wounds wont heal (don't let go)
Somebody is lying [2x]

Ohhh oh oh ohhhhh
The garden is dying
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Somebody is lying

Ah ahahahaha
Once of us is lying
Ah ah ah ah

"Livin' In A World Without You"

Its hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

You told me my darling
Without me you're nothing
You taught me to look in your eyes
And fed me your sweet lies

Suddenly someone will stare in the window
Looking outside at the sky that had never been blue
Oh there's a world without you
I see the light
Living in a world without you
Oh there is hope to guide me
I will survive
Living in a world without you

It's hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

You put me together
Then trashed me for pleasure
You used me again and again
Abused me, confused me

Suddenly naked I run through your garden
Right through the gates of the past and I'm finally free
Oh there's a world without you
I see the light
Living in a world without you
Oh there is hope to guide me
I will survive
Living in a world without you

It's hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

It's hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

Oh there's a world without you
I see the light
Living in a world without you
Oh there is hope to guide me
I will survive
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you

"Ten Black Roses"

Life is like a boat in the bottle
Try to sail, You can't with no air
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares
Through the glass you see the same faces
Hear the voices play fade a drum
When your life's a boat in a bottle
You're surrounded, drifting alone

Don't leave me now
Stay another day
With me

When you're sad, and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses

Far away we wait for each other
I'm still on that road to nowhere
Kiss yourself for me in the mirror
Tie a black rose into your hair

Don't lose your faith
Share another night
With me

When you're sad and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses

Ten Black roses
Ten Black roses

Life is like a boat in the bottle
Try to sail, you can't with no air
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares

When you're sad, and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black Roses

Ten black roses

"Ghost Of Love"

I am near you
You don't see me
Can you feel me
I'm closer than close

Does it hurt?
Does it burn?
Do you know
What you've lost?
Are you scared of the dark?

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love

You are falling
Down underneath
You'll be crawling
Lower than low

Can you sleep
Can you breathe
When you know
What you've done?
Tell me where will you run

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love

You were flawless
Cruel and thoughtless
And all that you left me
Is the Ghost of love

I'm fading
I'm barely breathing
Can't hold on
I'm dying
I must be bleeding
Won't be long

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love

"Justify"

So close so far I'm lost in time
Ready to follow a sign
If there was only a sign
The last goodbye burns in my mind
Why did I leave you behind?
Guess it was too high to climb

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify, justify my life

Someone as beautiful as you
Could do much better it's true
That didn't matter to you
I tried so hard to be the one
Its something I couldn't do
Guess I was under the gun

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify, justify my life

It's only right
That I should go
And find myself
Before I go and ruin
Someone else

So close so far
I'm lost in time
Ready to follow a sign
If there was only a sign

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify, justify my life

It's only right
That I should go
And find myself
Before I go and ruin
Someone else

"Your Forgiveness"

It's time for forgiveness
It's time to repent
Time for a sentence
To live without revenge
We'll never be together
It's time to face the truth

You tell, me we could make it last forever (forever)
Destiny couldn't seal our fates together (together)
There's a time for anger
'cause I still bleed from your last kiss
The war is over
And all I need from you is this
Your forgiveness

You were my religion
I gave you my soul
But it was the light

You were my obsession
I gave you all control
I didn't know your heart was cold and made of stone

You tell, me we could make it last forever (forever)
Destiny couldn't seal our fates together (together)
There's a time for anger
'cause I still bleed from your last kiss
The war is over
And all I need from you is this
The hardest thing for you to give
Your forgiveness

There's a time for anger
'cause I still bleed from your last kiss
The war is over
And all I need from you is this
The hardest thing for you to give
Your forgiveness
Your forgiveness
Your forgiveness
Your forgiveness

"Run To You"

Tomorrow's taking me away from you
Like a jealous lover
Kiss me one last time
Before I go down this broken road I follow
You will leave me torn and sting me like
A thorn from a dying rose
The saddest scent of you will cling to me
I know

I will run to you
When my journey is over
Wait for me
Keep our love alive
I will dream of you
'till I reach the sun
Then I'll turn around and run to you

If I stay with you and linger here
Another moment
I will fade into the scenery
You wouldn't even see me
I've got nothing left to offer you
It's not that I don't care
All I ask is that you think of me
I swear

I will run to you
When my journey is over
Wait for me
Keep our love alive
I will dream of you
'till I reach the sun
Then I'll turn around and run to you

I hate to see you cry
The way you look away
Makes me wanna die

Run to you
Wait for me
Keep our love alive
I will dream of you
'till I reach the sun
Then I'll turn around and run to you

"You Got It Wrong"

When you found me on the street
Did you think you rescued me?
Bet you thought without you I would die
Like a snake you swallowed me
I took it till I couldn't breathe
Just to bring your fantasies to life
You count on the faithful
To get your way
And to follow your light

You got it wrong now
'cause I don't give a ****
I'm not your believer
You got it wrong so
I guess you're out of luck
Your dream just lost a dreamer

You fool me with your mystery
Preaching peace and charity
But I see through your vanity and lies
You think you got the best of me
But I will rewrite history
I'll take back my life to your surprise
If I could make it as painful
As you did for me
I'd be just wasting my time

You got it wrong now
'cause I don't give a ****
I'm not your believer
You got it wrong so
I guess you're out of luck
Your dream just lost a dreamer

There's a little part of me
That would like to see you cry
Even if it's just one tear
I know it would never dry

You got it wrong now
'cause I don't give a ****
I'm not your believer
You got it wrong so
I guess you're out of luck
Your dream just lost a dreamer
