Текст песни:

I followed your rules
A willing fool
Branded by shame

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I bear so many scars, hit me hard
Time to change we have to rearrange
For this has gone too far, way too far

Creating new laws and living by unwritten rules
Restricting us

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I can’t let go

Creating new spins on ancient creed to fit your views
Denying us

You created this world
Where honesty is not allowed
You created this world
Where ignorance is being taught

You created this world
Where I am all, you′ll never be
You’ve been drilling these
Such falsely-based philosophies
…in me

The curtain has fallen
There′s no one behind
Corrected one mistake
But I am still around

Our fight is over
My scars will leave a stain
You thought that it was all easy
But I will still remain

You created yourself
Based on nothing else but lies
You created yourself
Where all your aspiration died

You created yourself
Where I am all, you′ll never be
You’re deceiving me
Now I am forcing you to see
… this

The curtain has fallen
There′s no one behind
Corrected one mistake
But I am still around

Our fight is over
My scars will leave a stain
You thought that it was all easy
But I will still remain

Take my hand, I′m sinking, I′m reaching out for you

Can′t you see what you′ve done to all of us?
Torturing me has no use here anymore

I followed your rules
A willing fool
Branded by shame

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I bear so many scars, hit me hard
Time to change we have to rearrange
For this has gone too far, way too far

Creating new laws and living by unwritten rules
Restricting us

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I can’t let go

Creating new spins on ancient creed to fit your views
Denying us

The curtain has fallen
There′s no one behind
Corrected one mistake
But I am still around

Our fight is over
My scars will leave a stain
You thought that it was all easy
But I will still remain

Your time is over
I′m taking what’s mine
You thought that you could keep me
Under your thumb and mind

Take my hand, I′m sinking, I′m reaching out for you
In my dying dream

Текст песни:

So many days we′ve spent together
Trying to get ahead with our dreams
Now we have come to the goal forgotten
Hurting within left us torn

The road is open
We find out way through ties where broken
So the means to the end
Was the peace that was meant
To be ours since it all began

We fight to win

I won′t give up, we′ll fight to win
To move along from where we′d been
I′ll sing this song for you again
I′m looking up around the bend
We′re so much stronger than before
Our fraying edges on the mend

Life as we know would be so different
Had our paths continued the same
Seizing the day with all that′s offered
The good and the bad,
The clear and the haze

To move along from where we′d been
I′ll sing this song for you again
I′m looking up around the bend
We′re so much stronger than before
Our fraying edges on the mend

Don′t let go

So hard to face what we′ve done wrong
We shared a life that can′t be
We cannot hide from destiny
So hard to face what had gone wrong
We′ve got to make this work
And give it our all

Give our all and won′t let go
Waiting so long for an answer
We′ve been waiting oh, so very long and
Now we′re ready to accept our fate

Our melodies will be remembered
forever and ever
Our memories will fade away
when the leaves have reached the soil

I won′t give up this fight
The sacrifices made
We gave our all
And won′t let it go to die in vain

I′ll sing this song again
We′re stronger than before
We have the chance of lifetime
We′ll never close this door

@ Epica

Текст песни:

I see a silhouette, liquid that moves
Skin like a pearl in the sea
I cannot resist this, her voice in the wind
But is it my eyes are deceived?
Is it you I see?

Lie down in my arms
Trust what you see
Smooth your brow, you will be with me
To find your relief

Gazing at whitecaps, coming so close
Everything′s suddenly clear
Numb with the aching, and still I am waiting
The water is pulling me near
Would you welcome me?

Lie down in my arms
Try not to breathe
Quiet love, you are now with me
You need no words to speak

For my mistakes, I am to blame
Never believed that it was all meant to fall
I′d give my life, to have you near once again
Take me away, would you forgive me?

@ Epica

Текст песни:

If we could see ourselves, the mirror would reflect insanity
Instead we camouflage the flaws that lie within
Condone the suffering we witness as we mingle casually
We need to right ourselves, or else we will derail

Aiming too high
You are bound to fail
Patience is a vital virtue
That you′ll never have

Don′t force me to believe
We′re caught up in the greed
′cause I just care for me
To break it, we′ll need everyone
Think it through: unite is the only way

A raging tragedy ignored will have its justice, finally
Distress and poverty is everyone′s disease
We′ll come to realise for all we′ve done
there is a price to pay
Yet hope is never lost, there always is a way

Trumping the game
Is no easy way
Enterprise and discipline
Will pay off in the end

If we ever could look into fate′s mirror
We would never have ended up here
We′re distracted by every sin committed
It should always be ever so clear

If we ever look
We would never be here

Don′t force me to believe
I′m never needing anyone
I only care for me
I′m thinking through
And mine′s the only way

We are caught up
In our failure
Now our union
Is our savior
It′s the only way

If we ever
We would never
If we′re clever
We′re together

@ Epica

Текст песни:

The culprit, you act before thinking
Caught in your ignorant sin
And lying to your own reflection,
you thought you could hide

Deprived of my own innocence, denied

The infinity of recurring torment, your comeuppance

See, hear the torture inside
Devouring what was left of my pride
You thought it′s not going to happen to you,
thought you could hide

The infinity of recurring torment, your comeuppance
Dwelling in a mind, mixed up and
Your regret has spread over the sea

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Sanguis meus tibi non iam perbibendus sit

Macula aeterintatis
Numquam detergenda
Quisnam surget et deteget
Imaginem veritates?

People created religious inventions
To give their lives a glimmer of hope
And to ease their fear of dying
And people created religious intentions
Only to feel superior and to have a license to kill

Our desire to die is stronger
Than all your desire for life
There is no getting away from it now
Only true faith survives

People created religious inventions
To give their lives a glimmer of hope
And to ease their fear of dying
And people created religious ascensions
To subject the others and to enslave, just to further enrich themselves

It doesn′t matter where we die
It doesn′t matter that you cry
We′ll take you with us

A disgrace on the beyond

O servator, sempiterne
Te grati coluimus, Odor atrox quo nons superfundis intolerabilis est

Deceive yourself by yielding
to soft words that cause no pain
Enrich yourself with different views
Learned without disdain

A disgrace on the beyond
That can never be undone
Who shall rise and unveil
The Facade of Reality?

Is there still room for new dents in old wrecks?
A disgrace on the beyond that can never be undone
Deceive yourself by yielding to soft words
Enrich yourself by making up your own mind

Sanguis meus tibi non iam perbibendus sit

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Do not use the past as an alibi
For all of your deficiencies always standing by
Face your negligence, do not fool yourself
Shortcomings will soon appear
For weakness shows itself

Blind from your success and all of the excess
Deaf from the praise you had

Don’t cry out of self pity in forcing your way through
For I will not be vulnerable to slander made by you

Blind from your success and all of the excess
Deaf from the praise you had

In a misty veil, misplaced
Where castles in the air will be no longer seen
As something out of reach
In time the dream will be erased
So many things will never be the way they seemed
And pride will have it’s fall at last
Her eyes fell while the shame was written on her face
When she realised that her failures
could never be undone again

You did not notice the manipulated hand
That overshadowed your thoughts all those years
That made you insecure
You did not notice the ancient shifting sand
That pulls you down into an everlasting sham
You will never be able to fight
Never be able to hide
Run for a fall, you’d better run

Blind from your success and all of the excess
Deaf from the praise you had

In a misty veil, misplaced
Where castles in the air will be no longer seen
As something out of reach
In time the dream will be erased
So many things will never be the way they seemed
And pride will have it’s fall at last

@ Epica

Текст песни:

The very brightest candle of all has been extinguished
Smothered by those who could not bear to face reality

Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver...

The leftover tallow just doesn’t contain
All the right answers
Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom

An untouched snow turns red
Innocence dies...

This black page in history is not colourfast,
will stain the next
All that remains is just a feint of what was meant to be
This black page in history is not colourfast,
will stain the next
And nothing seems in life,
in dreams like what was meant to be


@ Epica

Текст песни:

Memories that fade away
Have not left their mark
But you live on, every single day
In many different ways

It′s the truth between his cunning lips
That hands him his suspicious alibis
Persuading with your force will never be the way
To our destiny

Suddenly we′ve lost the force
To close our cursed doors
No one seems to realise
That wolves are in disguise

It′s the truth between his cunning lips
That hands him his suspicious alibis
Persuading with your force will never be the way
To our destiny

Your engine was so strong
But the road was just too long
Hope is not the end
So never lose the faith

As long as we can say
They can never take away
Our freedom, the most precious thing we′ve ever had
The reward from the blood, we′ve ever shed

His quest for higher truth, life of eternal youth has just begun,
in spite of being on the run
Many virgins wait for him to come
Persuading with your force will never be the way
To our destiny
Our destiny

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Go for it
Bow to the supremacy
Go for it at last

You do believe, so I can say
That you are owned by me

Go for it
Bow to the supremacy
Go for it at last

You do believe, so let us pray
For all those fools that be

Fool
Dance with me again
I am your destiny
Mark my words, don′t you ever disagree

Fool
Kneel for me again
I am your agony
Walk my way, I will never set you free

Kneel for me unknowing fool
Bow to the supremacy
Kneel for me unworthy pig
Die for the divinity

Go for it
Bow to the supremacy
Go for it at last

You do believe, so you display
All that we want to see

Fool
Dance with me again
I am your destiny
Mark my words, don′t you ever disagree

Fool
Kneel for me again
I am your agony
Walk my way, I will never set you free

Go for it
Just do it
Walk my way just to serve me

Go for it
Just do it
Kneel for me and obey me

A humble genuflection for the onrushing ascendancy
Not able to turn back anymore

Bow to me
Bow to the supremacy

Kneel for me
Die for the divinity

Bow to me
Go for it
Just do it
Die for the divinity

Believing is the cure
Religion is like opium
You’d better feed them all
Before they start eating you

Et fictum fit factum

Ne timeas obscurum
Id autem cognoscas

Ne timeas obscurum
Primum id cognosce
Deinde iudica
Post iudicandum demum age

[x2]
Fool
Dance with me again
I am your destiny
Mark my words, don′t you ever disagree

Fool
Kneel for me again
I am your agony
Walk my way, I will never set you free

[x4]
Go for it
Just do it

@ Epica

Текст песни:

A place which I have searched a thousand times
To finally free myself
Forever wasn′t ever long enough
I will refrain

I feel a passion washing over me
To shed the skin I′m in
This evolution will empower me
Now truth begins

And you will not find me
I am safe in here
I′m where I want to be

It′s a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you′ll see I′m right
It′s a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It′s a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It′s a force that was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see

Take one step closer to the borderline
Where night and day unite
This mortal coil I′ve gone and left behind
On holy soil

And you will not find me
I am safe in here
I′m where I want to be

It′s a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you′ll see I′m right
It′s a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It′s a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It′s a force that was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see

You will not find me
I am safe in here
I am where I want to be
So leave me now in peace

And you will not find me
I am safe in here
I′m where I want to be

It′s a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you′ll see I′m right
It′s a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It′s a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It′s a force that was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see

Текст песни:

Appearance is deceptive
So perfect in disguise
There′s more than what you see

A semblance is protective
A blinder for the eyes
A place to hide and flee

Flee and you′ll never see
What you′re going to be
If you throw away the key

The truth from the past you can′t make it last

Flee and walk away
From what you are this day
If you are afraid to stay

Beyond the shore the sea is filled up
with sentiment and strength
Here lie the thoughts imprisoned
A field of forces and laments

How can we hide here
We need to change our ways
How can we tell lies here
We turn our eyes away

From the truth
From the past
You cannot
Make it last

If you do not cease to run away from truth
You will never see the shadow
of your dying youth

A fa?ade is what we all possess
But on the inside it stays a mess

Superficial changes won′t recall the past
Don′t deny the clock is ticking
and it′s racing fast

Fading tokens of our latter days
Make us think we need to change our ways

Deep, the feelings hide
They′re wasted from within
And my shell will never break

Appearance is deceptive
So perfect in disguise
A place to flee and hide and run away
Lift the shadow

Текст песни:

The origin of a dogma
Placed in a new millennium
Vilified demons have been embraced
And given a warm welcome

The Seif al Din
Hasn′t got the ghost of a chance to rust
Because it has always been kept in shape
In serving th one Almighty

The rudiments have always been misinterpreted during history,
despite the good intentions of many disciples who′s faithful believe was strong and unswayed.
Most leaders interpret the old words to their
advantage in the attempt of gaining leadership and power
over those unfortunate enough to fall under their maliciousness and manipulative ways.
This misuse of trust will forever stain the pages of history,
echoing the exploitation and the frailty of decent
men carried away by nurtured rancour...

Perpetual distrust fed by a belief
In the malevolence of the others

When the beautiful unreality holds out its hand
It′s better not to lose yourself in blind faith

La Illah Illallah, Mohammed rasul Allah

Текст песни:

Fireflies are flying higher
They draw their wings up in the sky
Something I cannot read now
For my vision is blurred

We are all ruled by our fears below
Higher high
We are stuck and can′t get out again
There′s more than we deny
And there′s more than meets the eye

Fortune, fairytales; we′ve all been told
Our pattern, never built, never begins (?)
I can tell you there can′t always be
A happy end to every tale

We are all ruled by our fears below
Higher high
We are stuck and can′t get out again
And there′s more than meets the eye

We are all breathing the same air
That we share
We all just have to live
We are all equal
No matter black or white

We are all ruled by our fears below
Higher high
We are stuck and can′t get out again
There′s more than we deny
And there′s more than meets the eye

Текст песни:

Born to fight, and we′re born to flee
Doomed to live on ecstasy
Born to lie, and we′re born to cheat
Look in the mirror, who do you see?

Born to flee, and we′re born to fight
Without your mask, you′re terrified
Don′t hide your personality
That′s who you are, your identity

If the virtues of tomorrow
Cause the greed of today
We won′t have a future
Nor liberty

Born to breathe, and we′re born to pursue
That′s all we are supposed to do
The semblance of our liberty
Is nothing more than slavery

Born to flee, and we′re born to fight
Is it failure that′s our delight?
Born to cheat, and we′re born to lie
Look at yourself, have you lost your mind?

If the virtues of tomorrow
Cause the greed of today
We won′t have a future
And no more liberty

If the virtues of tomorrow
Set the need on the way
We won′t have a future nor liberty

Private vice leads to public virtue

Raised to think that we are free
Living in our caves
Being slaves

We lost control of our lives
At the mercy of the waves
Massive waves

Blind to see what′s going on
Conditioned as we are
And we are

We lost control of our greed
But now we face it all
Face our fall

Keeping all that we′ve created
And consuming all that′s possible
Reaching deep into temptation
Nothing can stop us

Guarantee our hard-earned profits
Multiplied ten-fold if possible
Reaching out for new redemption
Nothing avails our needs

My opponent won′t rule out raising taxes.
But I will, and The Congress will push me to raise taxes and I′ll say no.
And they′ll push, and I′ll say no, and they′ll push again, and I′ll say to them:
Read my lips
[George H. W. Bush]

If the virtues of tomorrow
Set the need on the way
We never had a future anyway
We had no future ′till today

Time and tide
Will not wait for anyone

@ Epica

Текст песни:

There is no love!
No love!

I am a duplication
Innocently
I was conceived
So violently
There was no love
There was no love for me
There was only hatred

I am rape
I am hate
I am rape
I am hate

Every day I feel anonymous hate

I am rape
I am hate
I am rape
I am hate

I am so filled with pain
A bruised and darknened soul
Spare me from the
Life that′s full of misery

I don′t want to live that
Way!
I don′t want to live that
Way!

There is no love!

Every day I feel anonymous hate
Forever in the shadow of disgrace

I am rape
I am hate
I am rape
I am hate

I am so filled with pain
A bruised and darknened soul
Spare me from the
Life that′s full of misery

I am so filled with pain
A bruised and darknened soul
Spare me from the
Life that′s full of misery

I don′t want to live that
Way!
[X3]

I am so filled with pain
A bruised and darknened soul
Spare me from the
Life that′s full of misery

Spare me from the
Life that′s full of pain
Spare me from the
Life that′s full of pain

I don′t want to live that
Way!
[X6]
