2. A Stroke Of Magic

Someone decided
Once we collided
Our two worlds
Should merge and intertwine

Winter was breaking
Hunger creating
Reasons to stop
And draw the line

Above the treetops rising high
New hopes for silencing the cry

A stroke of magic
Changed the world around us
A world this tragic
Seemed so superfluous
But magic turned the tide enchanted
Every aspect of this dying breed

Deep in the shadows
We strive to compose
Dissonant and troubled elegies

On how to exploit
These new found abilities
Mastering ancient recipes

Behind the hilltop rising high
A flawless army standing by

A stroke of magic
Changed the world around us
A world this tragic
Seemed so superfluous
But magic turned the tide corrupted
Every member of this dying breed

A stroke of magic
Changed the world around us
A world so tragic
Came to life again
Magic awakens possessive madness
It's driving humankind insane

3. Steal My Crown

Am I
Broken shattered alone
In the crowd

Am I
Lost without the sweet silence of you

Cause I
Been chasing all the ghosts inside my head
Feeling all the pain thought I was dead

Better find a way through the tense bitterness

Do I stay here
Do I stay here
Can I break here
Can I break here

Pushing me against the wall
Am I your broken pieces that you want to crawl
Just say you want to steal my crown
Just say you're gonna let me down

Show me – a way to get myself outta this
Show me – a reason why to stay in your mess

Cause I
Been chasing all the ghosts inside my head
Feeling all the pain thought I was dead
Better find a way through the tense bitterness

Do I stay here
Do I stay here

Lost my way as I'm going down
Felt the pain as I'm straying 'round
I've been in, when you're out. I've been torn apart
No need to run for you

4. Knights In Shining Armour

Now the word is out
The solution is, no doubt,
To crack down on this treason
Our long term desire
To put out the fire
It's finally in the open

So it must be handled discretely
Or blood may run from our own veins, a bleak destiny

Knights in shining armour
On a quest for power
Taking charge of things you'll never know
To raise the name of glory
Is bloody mandatory
If you want to end this puppet show

Knights in shining armour
Embittered by the hour
Taking charge of things you'll never see
But the road is long and torturous
Paved with steady progress
To bring this villain to his knees

Trespass on grounds,
But no treasures found
On Maycan Islands
The hand is hidden well,
And no one can tell
He's the king of diamonds

But when the heads start a-rolling
He'll know that the grim reaper's
waiting somewhere in the wings

"When man is surrounded he will fight to survive"

Born and raised
Way underground
A boy was groomed
To be crowned

5. Bird Of Prey

There's no more rails to lay
No more games to play
You've found your all time low
No more gold will galvanize your dream
Or heighten your esteem
You're back to where you started off long ago
Just waiting here for the unknown to show

When the bird of prey took hold of your heart
And it ate the centerpiece part by part
Every vein froze in icy silence
And when the bird of prey was done picking holes
In the body that still hosted your soul
There's only you and your false pretense

Your days of youth have gone
You lived the dream for so long
And never cared for lives beyond your own
No tears were ever shed
When the world around you bled
You just watered the devastating seeds you'd sown

Suddenly perspectives had changed
Your mind evolved from set to deranged
The bitter taste of your own medicine
What a sin

6. Your Last Call

Out of sight, out of mind
With nothing left to say
Loner in a foreign place
A careless runaway

My perception of the world
Grew different from the rest
Something's wrong within the maze
As everybody else transgressed

No more pretending to be fine
No more feeling last in line
Always the center of disgrace
Always afraid to show my face

I was lost in the dream of salvation
You held the reins to your own decreation

Progressive thoughts always were
Dangerous and bold
The narrow-minded shook their heads
And truths remained untold

One day you'll acknowledge what
I once tried to prove
That this old west community
Is nothing more than flesh to you

No more pretending to be fine
No more disciple of the sun
I won't be part of your regime
I'm not a victim of mainstream

I am lost in the dream of salvation
You hold the reins to your own decreation

It's out of my reach, it's out of my hands
Your whole kingdom stands to fall
It's out of my reach, it's out of my hands
Your last call

7. Particle

Tell me something that I don't know
Torn up pictures of broken walls
Show me life after you
Is it worth trying to

Are we dead as we're going on
Do we know where we're coming from
Am I out here alone?
Loss of breath, on my own

Pulling me back once more
I know you know that I'm following every move you make
But you let me down
I can be someone else for you
I guess I know it is true
Do you?

I'm chasing every particle of you
I don't wanna fight no more
But I can't believe it
I'm following your shadow's out the door
Calling out your name, but I know
I'm easily deceived and alone

Show me faces of those I know
Lead me into the great unknown
You left me out here alone
Losing life on my own

Loss of breath
As I'm torn in two
Still I'm hunting The loss of you
Am I out here alone
Loss of breath on my own

Pulling me back once more
I know you know that I'm following every move you make
But you let me down
I can be someone else for you
I guess I know it is true
Do you?

I am the fallen
Hear me calling on
But I don't believe it no more
I am the fallen
Hear me calling on...

I don't wanna fight no more
I'll follow every particle of you!

8. Indestructible

I sit and wonder
I fall apart and cry
You're pulling me under
Holding me down a while

No one is telling me why
No one is trying to fight
This time I tell you
I'm gonna hunt through the night

I don't know what we're fighting for
Why we try to die so young
When we are indestructible in life

Tell me
Are we changing faces
Hiding in our
Pleasant places

No one is telling me why
No one is trying to fight
This time I tell you
I'm gonna hunt through the night

I don't know what we're fighting for
Why we try to die so young
When we are indestructible

9. Transcendence

I've seen the world
That you long to explore and
I know what's behind those walls of admiration
The greater display
A free life today

Be it as it may, if you're gonna jump it could be forever
Leave or stay, whatever you choose defines who you are
Out on the ledge, testing the ground, awaiting disclosure
Close to the edge, soon this plight is over

You've been filled with stories
Someone else's memories
Planted to entertain the filthy rich in
Your world, it's not what it seems
You're living their dreams

Nevertheless, if you're gonna jump it will be forever
Time to progress, whatever you choose defines who you are
Out on the ledge, imploring for your full independence
Close to the edge, ready for transcendence

This is your chance, if you're gonna jump it will be forever
The fatal dance to show all the world who you really are
Out on the ledge, imploring for your full independence
Close to the edge, ready for transcendence

10. Final Hour

Eventually the conversation turned into
A fatal supplication, and how,
To keep this crash from happening,
We had to make decisions

Volunteers are needed for what seems to be
A lethal expedition
Look beyond yourselves

In the final hour
When the times are rough
We must hold together
Last chance, now or never
In the final hour
For the greater good
One man or 50 million innocent civilians

Clear your mind
so you can see what lies behind
your juvenile appearance
And for once let go of that selfishness
When you can make a difference
Raise your hand and join

Well underway on a suicide mission
Your mind is retreating from what's going on
Heroic action's replaced by confusion
As crucial decisions are made one by one
Scared, but determined to stop this machine
While the whole world is watching along
You'll be decorated for your bravery

11. World Foregone

Tick tock, the moving hands
Tell a tale we understand
Ever since the dawn of time
We've been working on the perfect crime

How long, how long
Can we go on, go on
It will be the end
Thus all we know
Will cease
And this world's foregone

Hired manpowers sent to war
Was this really what we came here for?
Harvesting forests will save the day
Eventually there will be hell to pay

Our time is nigh
If we keep on passing by
Save a breath for one last goodbye

How long, how long
Can we go on, go on
It will be the end
Thus all we know
Will cease
And this world's foregone

What to do when the seas are killed
By hunger, greed and waste
What to do when pollution
Fills every mouthful with distaste

Sad to see our way of life mirrored
And we still pretend
That the world we've used and drained
Will last until the end

We're out of time
Stand back and watch it burn

So long, so long
We can't go on, go on
This is the end of all we know
It's time, this world's foregone

(How long, how long)
So long, so long
(Can we go on, go on)
So wrong, so wrong

It will be the end of all we know
It's done, this world's foregone

(How long, how long)
(Can we go on, go on)
(It will be the end)
(Thus all we know)
(Will cease)
(This world's foregone)

12. The Time Traveller

At 1 a.m., it all began
The ripples in time were broken
Poetry and alchemy, machinery
Enchantments were spoken

Through time and space I shall bring my rage
They won't see me coming
The hammer of god, the chosen one
Master of destiny in the times bygone

I reflect and collect the black souls of those
who deserve no define
Burn the seeds of darkness
before they become part of the timeline
With every breath
and every beat of my bountiful heart
With a blade forged in rage,
like a vengeful ghost I shall strike and discard

You have stayed too far
This is not your domain
Child of the third dimension
All things shall remain

I'm the guardian of time
To allow this is divine treason
You mortal fool, weaver of dreams
Things happen for a reason

Theology, means nothing to me
Destiny, is all you can see
I care not for your reason
How can this be a treason

If you say, this is all that we can be
Then your rules mean nothing to me
Will you do nothing to make things right
Then get out of my way, I choose this fight

I reflect and collect the black souls of those who deserve no define
Burn the seeds of darkness before they become part of the timeline
With every breath and every beat of your bountiful heart
With a blade forged in rage
you shall pay with your own soul if you strike and discard

I hear the voices of those who have none
The spirit of what could have been
I guard the empty realms of the undone
The endless wonders that no one's ever seen

We shall give them wings to fly

I hear the voices of those who have none
The spirit of what could have been
I guard the empty realms of the undone
The endless wonders that no one's ever seen
Let us give them wings to fly
We are the unity that was meant to be
No time for false divinity
The masters of our destiny
Human and keeper brave enough to see
The truth

You have strayed too far
This is not your domain
Child of the third dimension
I warn you again

So what of all that could have been
Repercussions of the unforeseen
Who are you to question time
Who are you to steal what's mine

I reflect and collect the black souls of those who deserve no define
Burn the seeds of darkness before they become part of the timeline

With every breath and every beat of my bountiful heart
With a blade forged in rage, like a vengeful ghost
I shall strike and discard

Eons come and eons go
Ever have I watched the show
Tell me mortal, tell me spirit
One good reason not to stop it
Tell me mortal, one good reason
Tell me spirit

Hearts are broken, with no remedy
Music playing, with no melody
Demons dancing – wars are raging
Laughter turned to agony

Never more!
Never more!

What more reason do you need

Question not a noble deed

The keeper, the spirit and the unholy ghost
We can change what matters most

At the gates of time
Understanding was made
Watchers of the timeline
Changers of fate
