1.
The Labyrinth
|
|
(Lyrics by Niklas Andreasson) Through the desert time is passing By eternal count of moments Dust and wind down from the ages Whisper long forgotten names Day and night are dancing blindly As fear and terror watch in silence The wounds from ancient anger healing While the labyrinth remains The sky turns red as dawn approaches Another day in rimy stillness A fainter sun to watch the mountains A wisp of light to pass the seasons In the purple sunset dimming The distant mother and her scion The trails of vanished water fading Still the labyrinth remains |
|
2.
Temptation
|
|
(Lyrics by Niklas Andreasson) Temptation The curse runs through my veins Solution A means to kill the pain Why should I deny myself What keeps me sane? Why should I refuse The thing that takes the blame? Perfection When poison takes control Consumption Like magic for my soul To tread the darker path Epiphany appears To sense the deeper truth Revealing all so clear Revelation The answer has arrived Manifestation A strength that grows inside I soar above the world Amazing sights to see I gaze at all but it's A long way down for me Illusion A journey all in vain Conclusion The agony remains |

3.
Doublespeak
|
|
(Lyrics by Mikael Linusson) Do you know if this is heaven Do you know if this is hell Do you know where we are going I couldn't tell Sometimes i wonder what's behind these walls Sometimes i wonder where we are Sometimes i wonder how we got this far and stalled Building walls For our protection To keep us in To keep us out Can't you see the shadows growing Are the walls there to protect Us from you or you from us I couldn't tell Don't you ever wonder why they built these walls Don't you ever wonder who they are Don't you ever wonder what they keep from us on the other side Building walls For our freedom To keep us in To keep us out The only way to win is giving up the only way to move to stay behind the only way to speak is keeping quiet the only way to live is dying |

Uninvited
|
|
(Lyrics by Mikael Linusson) All there is to do Is look up at the sky And gaze at the stars Closer as they are And dream that one day You'll follow the wind To the other side And all we ever do Is look up at the sky And gaze at the stars Closer as they are And dream that one day We'll follow the wind To the other side |

Winter
|
|
(Lyrics by Mikael Linusson) Follow me down I heard you say And i will show you The promised land And snow fell down Hid all that were Your promised land A frozen world It's all for you and me This promised land Only for you and me Their whispers became shouts As winter came And snow fell Your promised land A frozen land Where all for one Is all for you It's us or them I heard you say Your truth is lies Your love is hate It's all for you and me This promised land Only for you and me Their whispers became shouts As winter came And snow fell down |

The Woods of Bastogne
|
|
(Lyrics by Niklas Andreasson) Faces grey Snow white Lingering wind through frightened leaves Metal black Blood red The silence holds, the valley grieves Pillars brown Hearts orange Twisted, desperate voices cry Raiment green Eyes blue Empty, staring at winter sky |
|
7.
Stardust
|
|
(Lyrics by Mikael Linusson) The light goes out so quickly And life turns away Blackstar leaves forever And the world seems so frail As the countdown reaches zero The starman turns away The hero has fallen And life is not the same The world seems out of joint And life has gone astray Losing touch with the ground When heroes fall |
|
8.
Miller's Court
|
|
(Lyrics by Niklas Andreasson) Under a grey sky Reigns fear and darkness Vice and deceit On shadowy streets Out on the cobblestones Hatred is boiling Awaiting the spark Light the fires of violence In warrens and alleys A spectre in the mist The rumour of suffering Chalk on the wall Down from a dark court Rings a cry of murder Habitual noises Of a sleepless night In an empty room A candle is smothered A door left ajar As the courtyard sleeps In the darkened room The embers are smoldering Footfalls receding In the narrow archway |
|
9.
Persistent Emotion
|
|
(Lyrics by Andreas Redebratt) I can't deny my illness Confusion reigns within Will the madness ever end? My soul bleeds once more Coolness embraces my mind Love does not linger anymore A constant blackened soul With a cynical mind Deep slumber awaits me Will I ever find my ease? |

10.
Finale
|
|
(Lyrics by Mikael Linusson) Streams of faces flow by Melting eyes through the sky Sleeping in, lights gone out Fleeting eyes gone milky white See the moments of it all Watch it bleed, watch them fall There is nothing we can do There is nothing we can do There's no ray of sunlight There's no change in life There's no way to halt it There's no way to fight Look at the moon passing by Wiping the waters away Locked up hands, folded eyes Leading lights that slowly die See the moments in it all It's a cold world as we fall There is nothing we can do There is nothing we can do There's no turning the tide There's no hope in sight There's no way to sail away There's no way to fight |
