1. Age Of Shadows
We never saw this coming
Pride comes before our fall
We never heeded the warning
Buried deep within us all
The age of shadows has begun
(Giant machines blot out the sun)
Frozen lands becoming known
(The age of shadows has begun)
The age of Shadows has begun
(I won't accept what we've become)
We stand to lose more than we've won
(The age of Shadows has begun)
Our quenchless thirst for knowledge
Our urge to change and grow
Our need to expand the nation / extermination
Made us rise from the depths below
The age of shadows has begun
(Giant machines blot out the sun)
Frozen lands becoming known
(The age of shadows has begun)
The age of Shadows has begun
(I won't accept what we've become)
We stand to lose more than we've won
(The age of Shadows has begun)
No more aggression
(No more initiative)
No more suppression
(no more emotions)
No more resection
(no more of all the feelings that shaped our hearts and made us who we are)
No more possessions
(No more suspicious)
No more obsessions
(No more sensations)
No more depression
(no more of all the passions that shaped our hearts and made us who we are)
Time (time, time)
but a passageway (a passageway, a passageway)
the beginning of the end (of the end)
an end that never was (was, was, was)
time (time, time)
but a curve in space (curve in space, curve in)
we are forever (we are forever, we are forever))
Eternal prisoners in time (in time, in time)
we are forever (we are forever)
caught in our cold inertia
Longing, hoping, waiting, for no...
Forever we are, forever we learn
Forever we live a lie, forever sleeping by
And forever we flee, (forever we flee)
Forever we be, Forever is but our dreams
Forever is but a scream and forever we try
Forever we die, the spell of life for all
possessed for life, not enough
Longing, hoping, waiting, for no one
Never enough

2. Comatose
No need
no need to feel the pain
no need to feel betrayed
no need to feel inane
no need to feel afraid
wake me up before I die, hold me close
As I gaze upon to the sky, comatose
No reason to survive, I suppose
Wake us up before we die
no need to feel desire
But I need you with me
no need to feel small
But I need to feel secure
no need to feel afar
But I need you feel free
no need to feel at all
But I need to know for sure
wake me up before I die, hold me close
As I gaze upon the sky, comatose
No reason to survive, I suppose
Wake us up before we die
перевод:
"Коматозный"

3. Liquid Eternity
Once a world, endless and free
Horizons unbroken
Now a world of bounded frontiers
The elders have spoken (our home)
Once a world, eternal and blue
Floating, escaping
Now a world that's blinding my view
Shadows shaping (our home)
Liquid eternity crosses through our veins
Liquid eternity nourishes our brains
Liquid eternity, a world that does not live
Liquid eternity, a life that does not yield
Once a world of fear and dismay
Of fleeing and hiding
Now a world that's peaceful and safe
So caring and providing, our home...
Would you prefer the pain and suffering we had
Would you prefer to be in peril, even dead
Would you prefer to live the life we've learned to dread
Would you prefer to live a mortal life instead (our home)
I'm losing my reason to live
The essence of life
But the system's got so much to give
Or would you rather die...
I'm losing my pride and my joy
My will to believe
Why would you come back and destroy
What we have achieved
Would you prefer the pain and suffering we had
Would you prefer to be in peril, even dead
Would you prefer to live the life we've loved to play
Would you prefer to live a mortal life instead
Would you prefer the pain and suffering we had
Would you prefer to be in peril, even dead
Would you prefer to live the life we've loved to play
Would you prefer to live a mortal life instead (our home)

4. Connect The Dots
I hugged the wife and drove to work today
It was only a few miles
Was in a hurry but the lights were changing up ahead
So I stepped on the gas
I checked the web and left it on over night
Downloading all the latest files
Fear, revere, the torrent flows into my lap
And I disconnect
We all know no need to remind us
We all know we won't connect the dots
We all know locked away inside us
We are dying for tomorrow
We are living for today
I rushed back home to my family
I got my son a brand new game
No need to cook, I picked up fast food on the way
And it's finger-licking good
Have you seen little Steve today?
Guess he's still up there in his room
But if he comes down to
I'll be right here just staring at the tune
Playing his game
Don't you think it's rather warm tonight
Especially for the time of year
I turn up the air pull the sheets up to my chin
And I close my eyes
Can't relax, can't fall asleep
Should I take another pill?
I turn up the lights, light up a cigarette and smile
I've got it made

5. Beneath The Waves (Beneath The Waves – Face The Facts – But A Memory... – World Without Walls – Reality Bleeds)
The water breaks the golden sunrays
Silver dances on the wave
But a memory...
I often dream about the old days
Playing hide and seek within the caves
But a memory...
I still feel the rising tides embrace me
Carrying me to a place unknown
But a memory...
I remember all the love they gave me
In this fluid world we call our home
But a memory...
Beneath the waves we were invincible
In a world without frontiers
Beneath the waves we were inseparable
In a world without walls
Faces of cerulean oceans
Mirroring stars and sable skies
But a memory...
How I miss the sense of sweet emotions
Of a world so pure, devoid of cries
Blind memory...
Beneath the waves we were unbeatable
In a world without frontiers
Beneath the waves we were untouchable
In a world without walls
Face the facts, there is no way back
For eyes inside to act
Face the acts, our future is black
Our eyes were on the wrong track
Water breaks the golden sunrays
Silver dances on the wave
But a memory...
I often dream about the old days
Playing hide and seek within the caves
But a memory...

6. Newborn Race (The Incentive – The Vision – The Procedure – Another Life – Newborn Race – The Conclusion)
There must be a way to enrich our lives.
A way to awaken a nation that dies.
There must be a way to revive our past.
A way to break free from a world that won't last.
Take me back to when we lived another life
Back to when we had no plan
Take me back to when we struggled to survive
Back to when it all began
There must be a way to reverse history
A way to resume life, return to the sea
There must be a way to went back (to) what we lost.
A way to escape this, whatever the cost
Take me back to when we lived another life
Back to when we had no plan
Take me back to when we struggled to survive
Back to when it all began
Explore the vastness of space
Discover a wonderful grace
Enter a brand new face
See the world with a a newborn race
We have no choice
Life is passing us by
We should rejoice
I say we should try
Every million cycles
shooting stars rip our sky.
We could divert them
on the day they passed us by.
And on that shining day
there is a way for our DNA to reach the outerspace
And on that charming day
there is a way for our DNA to reach a world to stay
Hmmm... Do we have the right to create life?
And do we have the right to take it? Yeah
Can we decide who lives and dies?
Do you think they would even make it
We have no choice
Life is passing us by
We all plant our seeds
And guide them to their goal
We cannot fail
We have absolute control
And on that shining day
there is a way for our DNA to reach the outerspace
And on that charming day
there is a way for our DNA to reach a world to stay
Hmmm... Do we have the right to play gods?
I strongly feel I have to make a stance
Do you think we should take the odds? Yeah.
Would they even stand chance?
I don't think they ever will.
Ever will...
No...

7. Ride The Comet
Find your way home, little extremophiles
Find your way home, donors of life
You're on your own, little extremophiles
You're on your own, cleaving the skies
Carry out our dangerous task
Sail uncharted spheres
Live out our dreams, ride the comet
Journey on the Migrator trail
Cross the new frontiers
Pass on our genes, ride the comet
You are the future, little extremophiles
You are the future, you know what to do
Carry out our dangerous task
Sail uncharted spheres
Live out our dreams, ride the comet
Journey on the Migrator trail
Cross the new frontiers
Pass on our genes, ride the comet

8. Web Of Lies
[Simone Simons]:
Dear PX, I feel you are the one
What's your name? Where are you from?
I'm in love, though we never met
Looking for clues, I search the net
Dear PX, I'm waiting for your name
Check every hour, to no avail
Been up all night, couldn't get to sleep
No way out, I'm in too deep
Dear PX, It's been 11 days
I'm kind of lost within the maze
Are you there? Give me but a sign
Are you at home? Are you on-line?
[Phideaux Xavier]:
Dear Simone, I'm sorry for the wait
I've seen your pics, you're looking great
I'm all alone, dying for a date
I think we match, it must be fate
[Simone Simons]:
Dear oh well, I feel you are the one
what's your name? where are you from?
I'm in love, though we never met
Looking for clues, I search the net

9. The Fifth Extinction
Through their eyes we will see
With their hands we will create
In their world we will be free
With our minds we'll shape their fate
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Forming right before our eyes
We're alive
Through their pain we'll learn to live
Remember all life has to give
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Re-ignite the sparkle in our eyes
We're alive! So alive!
I see a planet, perfect for our needs
Behold our target, a world to plant our seeds
There must be life, first remove any trace of doubt!
They may all die, don't you think we should check it out?
We have no choice, we waited far too long
This is our planet, this is where they belong
We may regret this, is this the way it's supposed to be?
A cold execution, a mindless act of cruelty!
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise
I see mainly reptiles, a lower form of intelligence
Mere brainless creatures with no demonstrable sentience
What makes us superior, we did not do so great ourselves!
A dying race, imprisoned in restricted shells
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise
And as the smoke slowly rises
Our planet's bare and cold
But as the black sky brightens
A wondrous world unfolds
We're at the dawn of a new age
As we hear the final cries
Ready to enter the next stage
From the ashes we will rise
And as the smoke slowly rises
Our planet's bare and cold
But as the black sky brightens
A wondrous world unfolds
We're at the dawn of a new age
As we hear the final cries
Ready to enter the next stage
From the ashes we will rise!
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Re-ignite the sparkle in our eyes
We are alive

10. Waking Dreams
Life, imagination
Missing link in the chain
We'll fuel your minds
Color your thoughts
Come to you waking dreams
Fire, inspiration
Missing branch on the tree
We're all rude
We're all black
Come to you in waking dreams
Sail the stream as I dance upon the waves of a waking dream
As it passes you by.
Ride the beam as I rise upon the wings of a waking dream
As it fades in the sky.
Mind transformation
You were chosen
Live the the dream that we have been dreaming
Now is a time to come together and make it come true
Oh me and you
Sail the stream as I dance upon the waves of a waking dream as it passes you by.
(Dancing on the waves)
Ride the beam as I rise upon the wings of a waking dream as it fades in the sky.
Sail the stream as I dance upon the waves of a waking dream as it passes you by.
(Dancing on the waves)
Ride the beam as I rise upon the wings of a waking dream as it fades in the sky.

11. The Truth Is In Here
Last night I had that dream again
My world was black as night
Plagued by visions of a future world
Mr L, did you take your meds?
I sang about these dreams
Warning man of his demise
Wasted words that no one heard
Won't you please relax? I'll make your bed
Today I had that dream again
I roamed among the stars
On the wings of an amazing flight
Mr L, do you feel OK?
To a place beyond our time
Where the sunlight doesn't warm
And colour bleeds into the night
We may have to increase your dose today
I know the truth is out there
Didn't you want to see?
I know the truth is in here
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to flee
Now I have that dream again
I live beneath the waves
In a ground of grace and majesty
Mr L can I ease your mind
In the distant shadows loom
Cold machines rise from the deep
In a world once proud and free
Would you free your thoughts, let it all abide
I hate to have that dream again
They live inside my head
Feeling everything I feel inside
Mr L can you please be still?
They speak to me in dreams
They can see all I can see
They have always been my guide
Gotta hush now, please have another pill
I know the truth is out there
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to see
I know the truth is here
Why should we deceive you?
Didn't you want to feel?
We are all alone
There's no one there
You don't have to be afraid
Can't you see through this masquerade?
We are all alone
We are all clones
There's no one there
I am so scared
You don't have to be afraid
Last night I had that dream again
My world was black as night
Plagued by visions of a future world
Mr L, would you take your rest?
They speak to me in dreams
They could see all I can see
They have always been my guide
Won't you please relax? I'll make your bed
I know the truth is out there
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to see
Why should we deceive you?
I know the truth is in here
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to feel?

12. Unnatural Selection
We have to teach them all that we know
Their evolution moves far too slow
Expand their minds and reject compliance
Upgrade their knowledge, upload our science
This revolution will lead to their demise,
We should not make the same mistake twice
We're kept alive by artificial means
We've lost our souls to a world of machines
Listen to the Warning
We need to teach them to fight disease
They seem so helpless and need our expertise
I see them dying all across the globe
Their greatest foe is but a small microbe
The sudden change leads to overpopulation
Shifting the balance, destructive habitation
Killing a live biological invasion
Consuming it by ruthless exploitation
Can you see the fire in their eyes?
Can you hear the anguish in their cries?
Can you see the beauty in their eyes?
Can you sense the love within their hearts?
I can taste the freedom we once had
I can touch their pain when they feel sad
I can smell the fragrance of the air
I remember times we used to share
(Don't want to live in a world that's dying)
(Don't want to live in a world that's dead)
Listen to the warning
(Before the dark powers of destruction unleashed by science engulf all
humanity in planned or accidental self-destruction)
(Human Kind has acquired a collective power and ability to
dramatically alter the environment of the entire planet)
(This will not be another Vietnam)
(The only thing we have to fear is fear itself)
(Our task is not only to win the battle, but to win the war)
We gave them feelings what did they sense?
Shout out the world at their defence.
We gave them science what did they do?
They built a bomb and they used it too.
We gave them wisdom, what did they learn?
Wore out the planet and mare it burn!
We gave them armor, what did they make?
Nuclear weapons for their own sake!
We gave them insight what did they see?
Vanquish the noble, enslave the free!
We gave them wisdom, what did they seek?
Destroying all that's within their reach!
We gave them language, what did they say?
They put the planet in disarray!
We gave them dreams!
What did they dream?
Don't want to live in a world that's dying.
Don't want to live in a world that's dead.
Listen to the warning
A chain on guilt around her neck
A planet straying in darkness
What can we say in lives we wreck?
I say we should find a way
I say stop this decay
Can you see the fire in their eyes?
Can you hear the anguish in their cries?
Can you see the beauty in their eyes?
Can you sense the love within their hearts?
I can taste the freedom we once had.
I can touch their pain?
I can smell the fragrance of the air.
I remember times we used to share.

13. River Of Time
Way too late to prevent their fall
Are they ready for the key to it all
The mystery solved, the answer to life
The final solution, a chance to survive
We can save this ill-fated race
Who are lost in the ocean of space
Show them the way to reverse their decline
Guide them back on a river of time
Follow the wave, speed up the flight
Slow down time, faster than light
You might let the forces take a giant leap
And the stream dive into the deep
We can save this ill-fated race
Who are lost in the ocean of space
Show them the way to reverse their decline
Guide them back on a river of time
Send back visions of war and decay.
Paradigms of fear in a world of dismay.
Shape the present, alter the past.
Create a new future, one that would last
We can save this ill-fated race
Who are lost in the ocean of space
Show them the way to reverse their decline
Guide them back on a river of time

14. E=MC2
It all came to me in the wake of a dream
Bending space and reversing the stream
The knowledge is mine to influence time
And avert our decline
We could use this to salvage mankind
Send projections into the past
As humanity fades in their minds
Let them know man won't last
It all came to me in the wake of a dream
This may be our last chance if we want man to survive
A mirror reflection
Show them our world as it dies
Cut through the barrier and do what no one has dared
Let's break the equation
E=MC2
Our first try was a minor success
No control, I can but guess
We have to move now; don't know just how
No mistakes are allowed
We can make no mistakes
I have sent it but nothing changes
Just a line in some nation lore
I don't know just how far it reaches
Everything's like before
It all came to me in the wake of a dream

15. The Sixth Extinction
[1. Echoes On The Wind]
It's the calm before the storm
It's the quiet before the roar
It's the time when all will be decided.
(All will be decided)
But nobody hears
The Echoes on the Wind
It's the end of the chain
(Destruction of the feelings)
It's the end of our game
(We're seeing as before)
It's the end of man's evolution
(The end of the evolution)
But nobody hears
The echoes on the wind
[2. Radioactive Grave]
Do you hear the sirens?
Do you see them burst?
Do you feel the fire?
I can hear them crying
I can see their fear
I can see them dying
Do you hear them calling
Do you see them hurt?
Do you feel them falling?
I can't think of waiting
I can see their hearts
I can see them fading
Do you hear the sirens?
Do you see them burst?
Do you feel the fire?
I can hear them crying
I can see their fear
I can see them dying
[3. 2085]
Silence's so loud
Not a soul left alive
Darkness's a shroud
2085
All our dreams have disappeared
They burned down, tree of life
Confirming all that we feared
2085
Don't give up
Remember how we felt
Fire rushing through our veins
Now it's the time
To rise up from our hell
Now it's the time to free our brains
The meaning of life is to
Give life meaning
Don't you fast, move too slow.
Restore the balance
Between thinking and feeling
Open up and let it flow
No side has won
Struggled to survive
Our quest here is done
2085
All our hopes have disappeared
Our race will
Not describe
Time will not bring color here
2085
Don't give in
Remember all we learned
The spark of life if did ignite
We're again, The rest for which we earth
We're again, A wealthy fire
We must resolve this human equation
We're already dead if we don't try
To welcome challenge, genetic variation
Stop the machines, prepare to die
[4. To The Planet Of Red]
(инструментал)
[5. Spirit Of The Wind]
He's the last man alive
(Searching for the answer)
Knowing he won't survive
(To the mystery of live)
He lives the past, and dreams of the future
(Dreaming of the future)
And soon he'll set free
(And the sleeper will awake)

Make us whole
Our greatest soul
Follow you home
Complete the Circle
We must survive
Restore our lives
Always be sure
