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

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

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

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

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]

Текст песни:

So sweet caress, never long to last!
You entered my soul and gave hope to my life.

So sweet caress, never hope to last!
You left me behind all alone and aghast
Captured inside such an austere Elysium

Imperfect feelings, futile grief
Love a device against all solitude
As it all went on, the love became
A field in a dream that once had been real

So sweet caress, never long to last!
Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate!
Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry

Imperfect feelings, futile grief
Love a device against all solitude
As it all went on, the love became
A field in a dream that once had been real

deinde veritas se praecipitavit

I secretly longed for something
which had never existed

First I thought it was a dream
but then it smashed into reality
Beautiful on the outside, decayed deeply within

I secretly longed for something
which had never existed

Devoted to a body without a soul

Numquam non tibi diffidam

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Chance doesn’t exist
But the path of life is not totally so predestined
Time and chronology show us how all should be
In the ways of existence
To find out why we are here

Being consciousness is a torment
The more we learn is the less we get

No one surveys the whole, focus on things so small
But life’s objective is to make it meaningful
Only searching for this
That which doesn’t exist
Although our ability to relativize remains unclear

Being consciousness is a torment
The more we learn is the less we get
Every answer contains a new quest
A quest to non existence, a journey with no end

I’m not afraid to die
Im afraid to be alive without being aware of it

I’m so afraid to, I couldn’t stand to
Waste all my energy on things
That do not matter anymore

Our future has already been written by us alone
But we don’t grasp the meaning
Of our programmed course of life
We only fear what comes
And smell death every day

Our future has already been wasted by us alone
And we just let it happen and do not worry at all

Our future has already been written by us alone
But we don’t grasp the meaning
Of our programmed course of life
We only fear what comes
And smell death every day
Search for the answers that lie beyond

Being consciousness is a torment
The more we learn is the less we get
Every answer contains a new quest
A quest to non existence, a journey with no end

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Wisdom, knowledge, science

Develops, always, better, faster
This is the final end

A voice in the wilderness
Fights a futile war
Because the strong are deaf
More so then before

Massive disregard
Shows what to expect
Scars on top of scars
Racing toward a future we don′t have

Fear is taking over me, there is nothing I can see

The Future is as certain
As life will come to an end
When time feels like a burden
We struggle with our certain death

Wisdom, knowledge, science

Develops, always, better, faster

We have to guide ourselves
For we cannot stand
One more false pretence getting out of hand

Now fear is the driving force
Taking over us Aad finding out this source
May turn out to be too much to bear

Fear is taking over me, there is nothing I can see
How could this have come to be

The Future is as certain
As life will come to an end
When time feels like a burden
We struggle with our certain death

Wisdom, knowledge, science

Develops, always, better, faster
Defeats us

Science, knowledge, wisdom
Destroys us, always, ever, faster
This is the final end

Thirteen moons
The path to walk
Thirteen moons
The path to talk
Restore all that belongs to us

Thirteen moons
The way to speak
Thirteen moons
Is what we seek
Restore all that was left behind

The Future is as certain
As life will come to an end
When time feels like a burden
We struggle with our certain death

Текст песни:

Quaestio nostra est aeterna
Ultima requies fons vitae
Sed nos eam novam existimemus

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Living at different places
Evading into various spaces
My compass has broken
I′m losing the way
An ongoing madness has led me astray

My past breathes down my neck
And it seems now that all I can do is
Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead
A fading illusion now plagues me instead

In me there′s still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground

I follow elusive paths
Oh, it seems they′ve been written in stone
And the door to a new life is closing so fast
Burning the bridges will not bring me back

I know that in me there′s still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground
Or am I just wasting time?

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Trying to keep myself afloat upon this stream
But a thought is pulling me down
Pulling me all the way down

We are wandering towards a blank infinity
And extinguishing will now be the only way
to diminish your sins
This vortex can′t be filled up again
A hole in space and time

Do you cry to the heaven′s high
when you′re confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder
why these leaden tears will never dry?
They′ll leave behind so many shadows in my mind

High in the sky, all of the clouds are passing by
Wait for this storm, wait for the rain,
and wait for the tears to fall down on me

Do you cry to the heaven′s high
when you′re confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder
why these leaden tears will never dry?
They′ll leave behind so many shadows
Living in me, living in all the memories in my life

Do you wonder why
These tears never dry
Time forced into life
Living in my mind

Can we ever find a way in t his labyrinth without end?

Labyrinth has no end

Which turn should I take?
Left or right?
Should I stay?
Should I be the one?

Lost inside blank infinity

@ Epica

Текст песни:

Feel so warm when you are near
You are all I want to feel
Tell me now: is this for real?
Its hard to breathe...

Were all lost in travel time
Cannot find my peace of mind
When the sun will rise again
Well fly away

Take the stairs to the stars
Wander long
Travel far
Someday

A summer breeze makes
All of our winters freeze
Autumn leaves
Theres no chance for springs romance
We linger on but leave the past behind us
Old lovers live it on new

Windows open up to life
Put your worries all aside
Sacred silence closes doors
For open eyes

Take the stairs to the stars
Wander long
Travel far
Someday
Away

A summer breeze makes
All of our winters freeze
Autumn leaves
Theres no chance for springs romance
We linger on but leave the past behind us
Old lovers live it on new
But chances are so few
And choices are so true
