1. The Course Of Nature

Across the ages the world has been
Changing, it's drifting in space

The rest of you that still remain
Guarding your memories, now sleep

Running fast you're only
A flash inside the pan

Life will never, never be the same
Time runs over
The course of nature's way

Spinning around you
Millions of screams
Deafen all your sanity

Fast decay, no delay
Minutes are lost in sublime

Running fast you're only
A flash inside the pain

Life will never, never be the same
Time runs over
The course of nature's way

All day you feel lonely
Cause you know
The years have gone by
They'll never come again

Life is overrated
But who will ever know

Life will never, never be the same
Time runs over
The course of nature's way


2. The Voice Commanding You

War games inside your brain
You got to fight alone
Falling back, your sanity has gone

Why'd you ever think that you could run away from pain?
Sorry man, your tries were all in vain

Wandering 'round like a phantom in the dark
And you're waiting for the night to come
Lunacy attacks and you struggle to hit back
You'll be waiting for the morning sun

I'm the voice commanding you
Divided we're nothing – united we're breaking the rules
I'm the voice commanding you
Someday the madness will loose control… over you

Dreaming on, you can fly in a never-ending story
Where the sun will shine every passing day
Free your mind, let your spirit go free into the night
Let the minutes be gone and fly away

Coming in and out the confusions in your mind
Going crazy as the night moves on
Playing with your head now you're wishing to be dead
And you're praying for the dawn to come

I'm the voice commanding you
Divided we're nothing – united we're breaking the rules
I'm the voice commanding you
Don't let the madness assume control
Over you, over you, over you

I'll be there reminding who you are
All the time with no escape
You look inside the voice is calling you
Take your chance it's never late

I'm the voice commanding you
Laying down the law
Divided we're nothing – united we're breaking the rules
I'm the voice commanding you
Can't make me go away… I'm over you

I will never surrender

I'm commanding you
Laying down the law over you
A border line
That you can't hide
The voice commanding you


3. Ego Painted Gray

I feel the pain but I'm afraid to cry
All the time, desperate hiding tears
My life is boring and I count the days
On and on, woe is here to stay

Only if God would show a sign for me
Oh… Only if God could hold my begging hands

This endless torture's building up my rage
Holding on, hide my agony
I'm getting weary just to be alive
All I want is help!!!

So, you dove into the dark beyond yourself?
Lost your way to find the surface once again
Insomnia will kill all your solemn nights… Oh!
Haunting your despair!!!

Sorrow made your life a living hell
Lights are fading
Caught inside the black-holed inner-self
Ego painted grey…

Insomnia will hold pleasures in a shell
And your defiant stare!!!

Sorrow made your life a living hell
Lights are fading
Caught inside the black-holed inner-self
Ego painted grey…


4. Breaking Ties

Into my mind
It all came closer again
Things that we say
Sometimes throw the reason away

And I know I've been less than a man
There's a burning inside me since then

I have cried for you
Lost my pride for you
Now that you are gone
I can see the sun
I have lied to you
I have tried to do
What you want me to
What a perfect day to throw it all away

Feelings disguised
Are now coming to new life
So many tears
That have fallen down through your eyes

I am only the shell of a man
There's a burning inside me since then

I have cried for you
Lost my pride for you
Now that you are gone
I can see the sun
I have lied to you
I have tried to do
What you want me to
It's a perfect day to throw it all
A perfect day to throw it all away

Wasted time, nowhere left to go
Peace of mind is what I find today
Breaking ties from this lies you know
Life has no meaning
When you're out with me
So don't let it go, you'll never know
How many days and nights

I have cried for you
Lost my pride for you
Now that you are gone
I can see the sun
I have lied to you
I have tried to do
What you want me to
It's a perfect day to throw it all away


5. Salvation: Suicide

Wishing to be dead when hope is gone
Depreciating life when the days are looking bad

Sick of being alive when everyone is vain
Lost your hopes and now you fight against depression

Cause life's hard for everyone just look all around you
So why squander all your power on self-destruction

Too proud to make amends
Your faith, it all depends – hold on tight…
Too scared to be alive?
Salvation suicide calling me!

A long way to hell

My spoiled paradise has met this dead end
Cause I live my life all on my own with pride

Too proud to make amends
Your faith, it all depends – hold on tight…
Too scared to be alive?
Salvation suicide haunting me!

Get out of my way!
Get out of my way!
On my way to hell


6. Window To Nowhere

No doubts!
You're the result of the chances you take
Face the circumstance!

Have you become who you wished to be?
Resigning to what you loved and cared

There's no way out!
Memories will come to remind you some day
How it could have been

Through every door you will step in
Another choice you're stuck between
Don't look back. Just make your way ahead

A window to nowhere
The void in which I stare
Now that I've come so far where do I go from here?

Decision just came in time
A new door is open
You have to go again… decide!

You finally realize
The whole world you're facing
The window of your life… good bye!

A window to nowhere
Wide-eyed in great despair
Now that I've come so far where do I go from here?

Life is drowned in fears
The river of my tears
Please hold my trembling hands before I go insane all again


7. So Near So far

Look at my face
Scars won't deny

Alone again
I start to cry

Staring at me
Too blind to see

Open arms
For all I give
For all I take
Inside of your heart
So near so far

I'm just a boy… like you

Oh! Father I pray
For your charity
Wisdom for life

Was all I needed
Was all I wanted
To share with you

You know my heart
Was not disguise
Waiting for you
So stay with me

I'm now a man! You know!

Come! Take a chance
And give it all
No harmful winds
To whisper for

Life is short, you know
We can regret
Healing wounds always help us to redress
And with you I learned to live

Come! Take a chance
And give it all
No harmful winds
To whisper for

Our time is short, you know
Must we still regret?
Healing wounds always make time to redress
And I love you more each day


8. Passing By

Home you go tonight
To break the sound of tears
Life's fading
To keep the world away
Is not enough to ease the pain

Time is passing by…
Time is passing by; I see it in your eyes

Fire burns inside
A light that's caught between
Night and day
Sun's been set to die
The supernova in your mind

Time is passing by
I see it in your eyes (repeat)
Time is passing by
I see it in these eyes (repeat)
They tell me all!
You can't deny
It's in your eyes

Visions disappear
Memories of a dream
Surrender
Give them to the wind
Deny your sorrow, live again

Time is passing by
I see it in your eyes (repeat)
Time is passing by
I see it in these eyes (repeat)
They tell me all

Time is passing by
I see it in yours eyes (repeat)
Time is passing by
I see it in these eyes
I see it in your eyes

They tell me all!
You can't deny
You know you tell me lies


9. Scream Your Heart Out

Shaken out of liquid dreams you're under
The hellfire-red, insane nightmares
Is coming back inside
Patiently you walk again
Through the lane of a sandman's pain
Inner urge, tough beliefs
Is the way to a land of free

Howling strong
Shouting loud
The fear should be cast out now!

Awoken from a eternal sleep
You're trembling
In deadly black
With painful eyes
Delusion is back inside

Cry for more
To be sure
And find your own real truth

Let your heart out, put your soul in it!
Time to fly away and let your mind go free

No denying what this life should give
From mistakes you learn to forgive

Scream your heart out! Dig your soul in it
Time to fly again and let your mind go free

No denying what this life should give
Building dreams of your hope is the key
Feel the truth of your heart to relief
From your dreams you will learn how to live


10. Abandoned Fate

Silent talks
In a cold room, lost
Thoughts are gone
I'm alone

Wonder why
Why the faults were mine

Should I promise this?
Day by day
I need you
Hold you

Can't my eyes just tell?

Claim for pain
Was it all in vain?
New sad days to come
Many smiles we've done
Mourning face
In an abandoned fate

My mind is blind
But I still believe
The truth in shadows
Lies at me

Don't take my freedom
Is all I've got
Can't force my reason
For lovers knot
I'm lonely and lost

Don't mistreat me
Don't dismiss me
In joy and sorrow

Find a meaning
Keep on dreaming
It is so hard to learn

Here I stand
In a castle of sand
Who can help me then?


11. Out Of This World

[bonus track]

So now I see
How nice it could be
To rocket through the star
Like a fire bullet through the sky

Beautiful sight
Silent and bizarre
Wonder where you are
Rocket like a bullet through the sky
Circling on orbit through the night

Peace of mind - not so far away
Till I find my way back home
So close to me
Reaching out - to learn how good life is
Living in a world like this
So close to me
Our blue marbles just a grain of sand
And the universe is waiting for us there

Out of this world..
Into the darkest night
Hoping that I´m not alone
People are lost on that solid ground
And there´s something I want you to know
We are slowly destroying this world
No other planet
Nowhere is better than here
Into the night

Out of this world
Spinning around the night
Seeing the people so small
I see how much we have screwed our lives
And there´s something I´m trying to say
There'll be no second chance for our race
Circled horizons
Staring at our lonely world
Into the night
Like a fire bullet through the sky
When I find my way back home
