1. Prelude D-Moll

2. Toy Soldier
Wrong choice's been made
And I should have taken chance
Instead of being on both sides of the fence
When soaking wet I find the shelter from the rain
The victory's claimed but life is slowly draining away
Head or tails? Not a game
In this crowd you feel alone
Save your skin
Pretend to win
World's just a stage that we act upon
Playing dead
I cut thread
To keep me away from all the things you've said
A bigger part of wishbone's pulled
By those who always scream for more
After the whole damn trip I've drowned almost reaching the shore
Vengeance
Tastes better when served cold
Lunatic
Lie in ambush
God knows I must get even with you
Fed with the promises
Honour and pride
This is your big chance my little boy
Now everything's painted black
Fetters are broken
One word never spoken
That old dog can only bark
Head or tails? Not a game
In this crowd you feel alone
Save your skin Pretend to win
World's just a stage that we act upon
Courage
Is what you're made of
Now I'm weak and feel betrayed
Stabbed in the back
Toy soldier who's always been a cannon-fodder
3. Requiem
You can't escape from obtrusive thought
That you have trusted in false muse's words and every note
Now bless your chains to melt prisoner's groaning sorrow
I raised my barrow
Lonely emperor
Tuba mirum spargens sonum
Per sepulcra regionum
Coget omnes ante thronum
Dies irae, dies illa
Solvet saeclum in favilla
Spark of genius
It's continuous
Struggle with the wind to kindle fire
Chill of marble
Light of a candle
Can only listen to the confession of the liar
I raised my barrow
Dying emperor
Slave of the sound
Panic in eyes
Feel of diminuendo of his short and wasted life
Clutching tight the last moment of passion
Searching for the sense that I missed
Feeling that the end is near
I cheat the hunger with the promise
That I'll satisfy it
4. Eye Of The Cyclone
Rain, in rain I feel like
I'm purified with hatred
Subconscious fears, obsessions
Lay you ear to the ground to hear the weakened pulse
Chasing with the wind you'll never know which prophet's false
This is the calm before the storm
Pray for the one drop on the dried out soil
In rain I feel like
I'm purified with hatred
Subconscious fears, obsessions
The sea of my dreams has run dry
Once filled should never be touched by the time
By absorbing every movement
I create the image of a perfect world
Sky is the limit
Finally you can unfold your wings
Rain, in rain I feel like
I'm purified with hatred
Subconscious fears, obsessions
5. El Fuego
(инструментал)
6. Timequake
Black sun emerged from behind the clouds
And brought anxiety to this quiet town
When cobweb sticks to shattered fragments of their dreams
Daylight exposes filth
In secret the night covers up all sins
In darkness
We cast no shadow
In loneliness
There's no one we could follow
Engineers of soul
Make you feel so small
A cog in the machine
Distrust is the only friend that helps them to survive
Behind the door that's locked up whispers, screams and fights
Their misty premonitions sowed the seed of fear
Old clock is ticking louder
Reminding us that the harvest is near
All anger washed away with the tide
I wish the time was on my side
The frozen gesture, a carving knife
In rear-view-mirror all my life
It's the timequake...
7. True Lies II
All seeing eyes
Everyday
Pierce through the walls
Stream of pompous words
Empty sentences
Drown out vigilance
It's still the same sick rhythm
Makes us join parade
Buy yourself invisibility
To evade the glance
Sin of greed
Stains cleaned conscience again
In the shadow of raised hand
You are skating on thin ice
Read between the lies
Lifting the veil of secrecy
You will be consumed with anger and jealousy
Blind obedience, taken vow
Truth of unit vs truth of crowd
Come at my call
Creators of Leaders your cradle will fall
8. Sleeping In The Flame
Extremely flammable
You set your ears to the sound
That's indescribable
Like red light for the colourblind
You bribe your vanity
Thirsty curiousity
Smolders silently
Ready to explode
It's time to seize the day
Your senses are taking rest
By sleeping in the flame
Swallowed bitterness
Sinking in the nameless crowd
He never asked for forgiveness
Standing on the wrong side of the barrel
Standing on wrong side
Make God laugh by telling him about your plans
You bribe your vanity
Thirsty curiousity
Smolders silently
Ready to explode
It's time to seize the day
Your senses are taking rest
By sleeping in the flame
Extremely flammable
You set your ears to the sound
That's indescribable
Red light for the colourblind
He never asked for forgiveness
Standing on the wrong side of the barrel
Standing on wrong side
Make god laugh by telling him about your plans
9. Moonlight Sonata
Hiding mystery in my head
I avoid the arms that with pleasure
Would welcome my surrender
I can't even trust my eyes
Tunnel with no end
The path I walked is paved with fear
And too winding to understand that all I need is to reach out
For brighter side of the dark
Behind the mask
Hypocrisy
Night is come
Day is done
Once blood has been drawn
There's always a need
Before the curtain of night will fall
With its heaviness
Before the lamp will project a trembling silhouettes
I'll sneak into your head to steal your happiness
10. A Pure Formality II
Night, fear takes its form
Filling my mind
And all that was certain is gone
I touch the wood and smile to my thoughts
This path won't lead me home
Pictures of past closed in the hand
Unfinished chapter of life
Reminiscence of a place I belong
Won't never sink into oblivion
He had the right, you had the law
I unclench my fists and talk to the stone
Thrown to the wolves, commited no crime
The only real thing that I know is
TIME – deadly consequence
without a word of protest
shadow of doubt
stream with no source
I close my eyes I can feel no pain
Fragile as old painting without frame
I need no guide to where I roam
The last part of this trip I'll walk alone
Pictures of past closed in the hand
Unfinished chapter of life
Reminiscence of a place I belong
Pack your bags, sign here it's pure formality
