1. Ignition
(intro)
2. Driven
What we have here is a deck of cards
With the king of ace and the queen clutching her hearts
Do you expect this to be a fair game?
What we will see is a never ending fight
With a total loss of everyone in sight
Do you expect that someone will win?
It ends today
Blindfolded stars gaze at their compulsive cards
Trust no one for chance
Driven to take it all
Ace high – bent out of shape
Ace low – you cannot escape
There is nothing here that I need to save
Fold hearts – the trenches are red
Last deal – remember what's said
Two of hearts in the dead man's hand
The joker deals again
Love/hate relation that is hard to understand
Nothing ventured, nothing gained in the gambler's land
Is it a crime to bend 'round the rules?
All pieces in the puzzle of the grand design
Strategic interception but control remains denied
Is it a crime when you don't know the rules?
It ends today
Driven to take it all
Ace high – bent out of shape
Ace low – always escape
There is nothing here that I need to save
Fold hearts – the trenches are red
Last deal – remember what's said
Two of hearts in the dead man's hand
The joker deals again
Ace high – bent out of shape
Ace low – you cannot escape
There is nothing here that I need to save
Fold hearts – the trenches are red
Last deal – remember what's said
Two of hearts in the dead man's hand
The joker deals again
3. Human Condition
Welcome to the human condition
It's a lethal state of mind
There is no cure for the living
Only a promise for the dead
Wake up to a hangover
There's nothing left to take
Fuel the void with blinded hate
Do we really choose every road we walk?
Is there no fate to control the turns we make?
Fill the night with your screams
There are no more dreams
The blind still leads the blind
Welcome to the supreme condition
It's a lethal state of mind
There is no cure for our crave
Only cause and effect
Wake up to a hangover
Could we have been so wrong
Was the world not ours alone?
Did we really choose every sky we tore?
Was there no fate behind the turns we made?
Fill the night with your screams
There are no more dreams
The blind still leads the blind
Rise but fall twice the shame
The screams fall in vain
The skies are burning
Fill the night with your screams
We lost all our dreams
The blind still leads the blind
Rise but fall twice the shame
The screams will fall in vain
The sky is burning
The human condition
Is a journey defined by you, you, you
4. Death Of Jane Doe
Reaching out to no man's hand
The heart would not let go
Yet all could see the tragedy
Right before their eyes
The low tuned murmur suddenly
Was cut off by a high strung scream
A frantic search for where
The tortured sound had its lair
And though the ground was soaked in blood
And though the eyes had froze in shock
The begging sound still endured
"Someone please save me..."
Surrender all you know of life
And forgive all who died for love
What you don't feel you won't believe
Amidst the dark crowd rose despair
"Someone got to interfere
and get her out of here!"
But who would make the save?
At the last breath she could hear
The roaring silence of no one's care
And the unheard prayer to not
Be held responsible
Her face was like death of the ages
Fallen from the end of the sky
Singing 'cause there was no tomorrow
"Someone please save me..."
Surrender all you know of life
And forgive all who died for love
What you don't feel you won't believe
Surrender all you know of life
And forgive all who died for love
What you don't feel you won't believe
5. Marionette
Lost
The sky that covered my dreams
The secret room where all of me
Never fell apart
Black
The stars that guided my way
Through blinded years I fell astray
Where no one could hear my cry
Over and under
Inside and out
Slowly I wondered "was it all worthwhile?"
There's nothing left
To hide from the truth
The marionette
Can dance no more
Fall
The tears I had left to dry
The truth would not save me so I lied
Who can judge what is right
Sleep
I closed my eyes and my heart
My chest was filled with endless tears
And love that I never knew
Over and under
Inside and out
Slowly I wondered "was it all worthwhile?"
There's nothing left
To hide from the truth
The marionette
Can dance no more
The curtain call
Will never be heard
A silent fall
Into the void
There's nothing left
To hide from the truth
The marionette
Can dance no more
The curtain call
Will never be heard
The marionette
Will never dance again
6. The Road Less Travelled
A storyline leads out new borderlines
Should I move to strike what's done
Turn around
Tread new ground
Changing times always evolve new lines
Is it true all that we're taught
And we're told
Then we're sold
Do you think it's sheer luck when you catch a winning hand?
Should one turn around and run one millionth time
All in all we're just one step away
To take the road less travelled
Can you taste the false pretensions?
Can you feel the two-faced grin?
Time to leave what's done behind
No more tears to bear forgiveness
No more steps to reasoning
Take the road less travelled
I need to see what lies ahead of this
I need to see what's there to miss
Can there be bliss in just one kiss?
Life's too short to hang around and wait
While thinking that our magic fate
Will soon awake
Fix all at stake?
Life is defined by chances that we get
Even the ones we cannot regret
No one else can make you fall
All in all we're just one step away
To take the road less travelled
Can you taste the false pretensions?
Can you feel the two-faced grin?
Time to leave what's done behind
No more tears to bear forgiveness
No more steps to reasoning
Take the road less travelled
No one else can guide your journey
No one else can be blamed
You always have a second chance
Take control of what you trust in
Fate is defined by you
Take the road less travelled
All in all we're just one step away
To take the road less travelled
Can you taste the false pretensions?
Can you feel the two-faced grin?
Time to leave what's done behind
No more tears to bear forgiveness
No more steps to reasoning
Take the road less travelled
No one else can guide your journey
No one else can be blamed
You always have a second chance
Take control of what you trust in
Fate is defined by you
Find the road less travelled
Fate is defined by you
7. The Anger And The Silent Remorse
Self conduct by compulsive means
Just to keep everything as it seems
A chain of pains to fulfill my dreams
Bold lies won't make you forget
All that you forced me to accept
It's hard to believe there's no regret
Worn out from always holding back
Attack – Don't let it break your back
I can't take anymore
I know I promised always to be true
I know I promised that I'd always be there for you
Still the anger burning through my veins
The fury that I cannot restrain
Will leave these words said in vain
An anger without resolution
A fury in constant evolution
Exit all reason in this final conclusion
I can't undo what's said and done
I can't stop tomorrow's coming
Silence chokes the violence
But no one seems to have won
Judgement falls on forgotten scenes
Another blow of rotten schemes
The heart can never lie but does the end justify the means?
Worn out from always holding back
Attack – Don't let it break your back
I can't take anymore
I know I promised always to be true
I know I promised that I'd always be there for you
Still the anger burning through my veins
The fury that I cannot restrain
Will leave these words said in vain
Worn out from always holding back
Attack – Don't let it break your back
I can't take anymore
I know I promised always to be true
I know I promised that I'd always be there for you
Still the anger burning through my veins
The fury that I cannot restrain
Will leave these words said in vain
No I cannot restrain
So it's all said in vain
But in the end
No one seems to have won
8. Watcher
Obscene
The ludicrous observed
That we all applaud
A self-conscious fraud
Divine
The rage that lies within
But who is foolin' who
Is it they or is it you?
Two-faced martyr beg for life
Three sides to every story
But do we choose our own?
The righteous mass deception
In ignorance we trust
Fall through
Attempts to justify
How it all came down
Thundersound to silent ground
Decide
To be led or lead
Always a different side
A truthful jekyll or hyde
Two-faced martyr beg for life
Three sides to every story
But do we choose our own?
The righteous mass deception
In ignorance we trust
In silence bridges' burning
What end condones the means?
Three sides but what's the difference
When they all claim the truth
Three sides to every story
But do we choose our own?
Three sides but what's the difference
When they all claim the truth
Three sides to every story
But do we really choose our own?
In silence bridges' burning
So tell me, what end condones the means?
9. 21
A smile in anticipation
Clearly this would change all
Life as he used to know it
Was soon to reach its fall
A touch of mundane magic
In the existential frame
How would they stay sane
Obsessed with life beyond death
He would prove them wrong
He'd waited for so long
Control the heavens
Begging please three sevens
Trust the heart is never dying
A dream forever
This' the last endeavour
Search to find the code or die trying
This monument of knowing
Could not be reserved for death
Unveil the nature of man
Patience would be his virtue
One soul would set him free
Firmly he drained them for life
With desperate accuracy
In ultimo his own life
Would be the final piece
To know he had to let go
Capture the everlasting
"How dare they hide from me
The truth for all to see"
Control the heavens
Begging please three sevens
Trust the heart is never dying
A dream forever
This' the last endeavour
Search to find the code or die trying
Obsessed with life beyond death
He would prove them wrong
He'd waited for so long
Control the heavens
Begging please three sevens
Trust the heart is never dying
A dream forever
This' the last endeavour
Search to find the code or die trying
I must find you
I cannot live without your soul
10. Worlds Apart
Born with a restless heart
Feeding off hope that there can be some reason
Why all comes to an end
Before one can make amends
Silence
The screams of the past cannot explain the treason
But they will understand
It's part of a grand design
Patience my love (It can't take long)
I will seek your truth (I'll wait for you)
The lives I took, I took for you
And saw a flash of immortality
The great sham of divinity
Can it be the afterlife
Is right here in this life
Is this all there is or are our
souls too black to see?
The universe is in your heart
It's never been worlds apart
This is not all there is but our
souls are too black to see
Trapped in the gods great sham
The arrogant theft of what keeps us breathing
Yet die and you will see
What we search so desperately
Burning
The fire of lies conducting all our reason
We must separate the flesh and soul
Falling from grace (I see you fall)
I have found your truth (I must find you)
The lives I took, I took for you
And saw
Can it be the afterlife
Is right here in this life
Is this all there is or are our
souls too black to see?
The universe is in your heart
It's never been worlds apart
This is not all there is but our
souls are too black to see
Can it be the afterlife
Is right here in this life
Is this all there is or are our
souls too black to see?
The universe is in your heart
It's never been worlds apart
This is not all there is but our
souls are too black to see
The universe is in your hearts
