1. Final Day

unto the conflict and into the unforseen
For what lies ahead one can only dream

Go defend your place in time
Return and stake your claim

Onward with faith in their hands and night closing in
learning to gather the last moments to live
Reflections can't turn away
the anquish that cannot hide

Held by the perils of sin and forced from within
to venture beneath the sky

As they hear salvation call
deception commands them all
Unknown are ill-fated ways
that further desecrate
their minds the truth the honor

As they hear salvation call
deception commands them all
Led by a meciless lie
belief and demise are revealed

Gazing down to the ground below
an endless sea of endless foes
Once so far now plain to see
the sullen grip of reality

Rising forth from the light of day
the lonely souls cry out in vain
Shattered hope now felt inside
look to the heavens for compromise

One by one with will undone
the faithless minions embrace the enemy
and summon the passion for victory

Go defend your place in time
Return and stake your claim

Torn by the venemous pride and their sacrafice
Condemned to fade away

As they hear salvation call
deception commands them all
Unknown are ill-fated ways
that further desecrate
their minds the truth the honor

As they hear salvation call
deception commands them all
Led by a meciless lie
belief and demise are revealed

2. Hands Of Time

Let go of anger and offer youself unto me
this night

I am the reason you fear the light
Summon the demon hide what you say
the pain is the answer and why you obey

There was a time when our faith was alive
saddened by truth we all must find a way

Give me your fallen hear them weep
watching and waiting for release
Feel the power I bestow
my untold desire is all you will know

This is the time when our faith must survive
gather your strength we rise at the break of day

It was just a forbidden lair
hands of time have taken us there
With this yearning resistance is born
to carry on

Foresaken dreamer condemn me and alter your fate

Fearful of torment my lies speak
wretched believers banish me
Hidden amongst them lying in wait
a painful reminder that I will create

This is the time when our faith must survive
gather your strength we rise at the break of day

It was just a forbidden lair
hands of time have taken us there
With this yearning resistance is born
to carry on

3. Dawning

Far beyond skies of grey
there lies a place kept away
a sanctuary from afar

It's here his thoughts come to pass
as memories that never last
drifting onward to the stars

Untouched was this lasting peace
concealed for centuries
until the moment they arrived

In time his soul will lay to rest
lost among the final breath
left to search on in the night
for new life

He must rise above

How can the silence go on anymore
as it crumbles to the ground
Masses corrupting this once sacred home
with the pleasures they found

No longer can he wear the disguise
or surrender to the fear
Reclaiming some meaning in life
that makes the harm disappear

Sail away into the winds of yesterday
Here escape is waiting with reality obscured
facing the uncertain at a point of no return

Now we must leave all the others behind
Let your spirit soar through space and beneath
Journey to salvation
return to a place where minds are free

One mind will lead as another
is left standing all alone
Many have yet to discover
the power of what he has known

Slowly rising soaring ahead
Seasons changing never again pretend to see

There at the dawning the when ages collide
he retreats to solitude
Drawn to uncover one lasting desire
to remain as one of the chosen few

Sail away into the winds of yesterday
Here escape is waiting with reality obscured
facing the uncertain at a point of no return

Now we must leave all the others behind
Let your spirit soar through space and beneath
Journey to salvation
return to a place where minds are free

One mind will lead as another
is left standing all alone
Many have yet to discover
the power of what he has known

4. Dissension's Wake

Out of temptation A new age is dawning
the helpless sinners will follow until the end
Captured by regret and humbled by triumph
their solemn hearts together shall repent

See the day behold the tragedy
Be not afraid and find what is meant to be
Anger remains and falters endlessly

Keep me from falling into dissension's wake

With this knowledge I pray for a sign
distant lights are fading into memories
Once a sinner who beckoned the night
now a savior with secrets kept inside of me

Holding the answers and begging for hope
sands of time have fallen and cannot return
Reaching out to embrace the new day
finding strength and the will to not betray

Lead me on show me where I belong

Relive let it begin
Commense the feelings within
Transform the words for a while
Believe reconcile

Into redemption the future is calling
to hide the truth and see beyond the past
Light begins shining and faith realigning
this world of freedom remains forever vast

See the day behold the tragedy
Be not afraid and find what is meant to be
Anger remains and falters endlessly

Keep me from falling into dissension's wake

5. Inside Your Dreams

A falling mist surrounds the horizon
as a chilling sight disrupts my stare
There before me a wickedness arises
drawing me ever closer to it's lair

Down beneath this realm of peace
fall down and pray lest you be enslaved

Now as shadows take hold of me
they're longing to be free of any earthly desire
Calling out the enemy knows my name
as it proclaims we hide....inside your dreams

Each passing moment brings panic down around me
unveiling the threat of eternal rest
The sound of laughter with the images approaching
confirms they will rid me of my breath

Now as shadows take hold of me
they're longing to be free of any earthly desire
Calling out the enemy knows my name
as it proclaims we hide....inside your dreams

Inside subconscious there is nothing there
but it all seems so real

Caught in the grasp of reverie
there is one chance to be saved
Put hope aside and follow me
let it be known there's a way.....out

When all of nightime is covered with suspicion
and no one knows what lies ahead
Only then do the images awaken
and prey upon our innocence

Down beneath this realm of peace
fall down and pray lest you be enslaved

Now as shadows take hold of me
they're longing to be free of any earthly desire
Calling out the enemy knows my name
as it proclaims we hide....inside your dreams

6. Premonitions

Hide away
the warnings are falling into place
the time has come

I hold on to the last hope
unaware what the mysteries have meant
Now I see the secrets revealed and understand
our premonitions descend

On that day
the skies will darken with rage
beware the signs

I seek shelter in the night
and run from damnations arrival
No promise of a future in sight
with knowledge of mankinds denial

A challenge awaits us to stand the test of time
foretold are the warnings to never cross the line
Let go of your instincts and just as before
we'll rise from the ashes of this world reborn...

See the way that tomorrow is fading
feel the weight of the shroud sent down from above
Ask not forgiveness as the future is changing
we'll all pay the price when our days are done

I just can't believe why so many were chosen
to suffer the fate meant for so few
Open your eyes and pray that tomorrow
is your dying day the day we all lose

Passing on
the final prophecy has come
the end remains

I'm searching for the answers
crying out for what man cannot see
Unable to realize our premonitions
are destiny

A challenge awaits us to stand the test of time
foretold are the warnings to never cross the line
Let go of your instincts and just as before
we'll rise from the ashes of this world reborn...

7. Visionary

In the endless turning
within the back of my mind
is a world I cannot ponder
Can there be a future
will the images die
my inner peace must pull me onward

If these visions remain any longer
constant thoughts and dreams will control my mind

From the unknown darkness
awakes a tell tale sign
of misery and unknown splendor
Tearing forth at feelings
reaping all that is mine
solitude is not the answer

From the moment that time left me standing
I felt an anger that burried my soul
Will the silence return as a traitor
or will this anger burn out of control

Contemplate Eviscerate
the mind and the body are one
Futurize Fantasize
the power of thought has become
This vision is all that I see
what will become of me

Take a walk with me I will show you fantasy
Come inside my mind I will teach you misery
Voyage through my eyes now you know what I see
Imminent demise what can I believe

Is there understanding
images darken thdarken the known
Ungodly Commanding
descend to a world down below

Crying and fearing and losing time
frightened by what I can't see
Endless are terrors I cannot define
eternal sight I now concede

Come and see the future
underneath the lies
come alone and do not wander
Through the deepest sorrow
to the darkest night
to the place that keeps my honor

From the moment that time left me standing
I felt an anger that burried my soul
Will the silence return as a traitor
or will this anger burn out of

Contemplate Eviscerate
the mind and the body are one
Futurize Fantasize
the power of thought has become
This vision is all that I see
what will become of me

8. Arisen

A lonely silence has touched the ground
where innocence once felt the sky
In a shadow of a heart gone cold
he pauses and waits for a sign
while sadness and fate pass him by

Through the darkness a voice cries out
and ressurects a life within
Seeking freedom from fear and doubt
a sentence of living with sin
shall fall and a new life begin

Straight into the dawn
the mystery is gone
a vengefull spirit rises free

Speak to me I am not afraid
Hear me I am the truth

I am the one who is destined forever
The stars and the sun will guide me to the sea

The wind is screaming
he claws at the night
The smell of fear is carried in the air
Relentless unfeeling
the pain is in his sight
His vengeance the only care

On and on into tomorrow
a quest into eternity

His spirit portrays everlasting desire
to bring mankind down

On and on into tomorrow
a quest into eternity

9. The Mind's Eye

(инструментал)

10. Years Ago

Gone today without a whisper
set forth to claim a life lost so many years ago

In silence he stares at the sky
and waits for a moment of mercy
The vision that stands by his side
is calling on forces within to reach out alone

Sworn to be remembered for the promise he made to keep
Fearful of any encounters as they may darken and invade his destiny

Captured by fear in the dead of night watching shadows cross the gound
Hiding beneath the dim moonlight they speak without a sound
I can see why others would never want to dream
Take my hand and I will make you believe
your time is near

The memories arise
reliving the moment when her spirit dies
A portait burned inside his mind
so many years ago

And still he wanders on
through days of exile leaving fate undone
until the time when all can be taken down

Where the fires are burning
where the innocent fell
Forced to the edge by a vastness of fury
trading heaven for a glimpse of hell

Now that the time has come to relinquish
there's no more sorrow to bare
Resurrecting the ageless emotion
leading onward into this despair

Possessed by an image where two souls unite
destined to seek and avenge
Falling through sorrow concealed in the night
when does it finally end

Take my hand and I'll lead you onward
to a land so far away
I alone am the one you follow
the only one who sees your pain
Her fading image is out there waiting
a hearts desire so incomplete
As a savior I make this offer
to walk on water to set you free

Take my dreams
I shall believe

Years lost in exile have taken their last
her fading image found
Within an instant the forces strike them down

Where the fires are burning
where the innocent once fell
Forced to the edge by a vastness of fury
trading heaven for a glimpse of hell

Posessed by an image where two souls unite
destined to seek and avenge
Rising from darkness to conquer the night
never to wander again
