Dorian 04:54
Driven by beauty Imortalised by the canvas and artist Perfect complete I will remain for now and forever The darkness I'm seeing Reflected right back at me This mirror revealing the other truth inside of me Far beyond my precious pride Fill the void of vanity The shade one step behind Underneath the pale moonlight Holding my insanity The painting ever watching me give in to my lust I will embrace all the fears you would cast off The sin of the ages beauty must die Without it theres nothing In silence, Im screaming But no one's there to hear me The painting now bleeding Brings out the truth and sets me free Far beyond my precious pride Fill the void of vanity The shade one step behind Underneath the pale moonlight Holding my insanity The painting ever watching me

Please lead me to shelter Riding the Pendulum down one last time Time, Hold me together Facing the Truth of the lie that we had found Every Single night it feels like paradise is over All the time we've had has turned to dust So take me to river Bathing in the stars around Til Charon takes me over Sleep until the sun goes down in ever lasting peace This Love was a bullet Kill me or cure me, but take me away Hope, hope was the shadow Fueling the voice that still leads me astray Every Single night it feels like paradise is over All the time we've had has turned to dust So take me to river Bathing in the stars around Til Charon takes me over Sleep until the sun goes down in ever lasting peace

Find me Where the cliff meets the sea hear the ocean's breeze, sing songs for me All our wildest dreams Laid bare in front of me Broken Harmony, I cant recall Neverending Silence Never ending thoughts haunting me Always tried so hard not to believe Neverending Moment Longing for the heart I once had All my fantasies locked to the past Holding On to what might have been All those fairytales we keep within seeing all I am knowing what I could be hear the sirens call, come set me free Neverending Silence Never ending thoughts haunting me Always tried so hard not to believe Neverending Moment Longing for the heart I once had All my fantasies locked in the past

Not Enough 05:03
Last flame of life Will die As the spotlight fades Please no more words No more Sound brand New wound for me I hide away, can someone find me Break down the the chains that bind me Everything I've tried to do Is not enough I see myself, the shattered fortress Regrets I can not forget Everything I've tried to do Is not enough For you One thousanth page Cleansing flame Ends My symphony All of my dreams Stored within You will never see I hide away, can someone find me Break down the the chains that bind me Everything I've tried to do Is not enough I see myself, the shattered fortress Regrets I can not forget Everything I've tried to do Is not enough For you

Fade Away 05:04
Once again I'm feeling the thorns on my head As Im sitting in silence Incomplete The void growing now day by day The unknown I can't take Giving up But can we count the costs as we serve all our lives on a silver plate Chasing shadows we've been hunting after Do the angels have faces There is a voice that still calls out to me Singing sweet melodies Takes me away forever There is a song that still echos through time Such a sweet lullaby No time to let it fade away I believed That I held the world my hands had A life never ending Now I see If we are just grains in the sand We can never be free Taken All I've given Lost among the living forgive me now, but you know I tried Falling faster Facing my disaster When theres No hope to Save me There is a voice that still calls out to me Singing sweet melodies Takes me away forever There is a song that still echos through time Such a sweet lullaby No time to let it fade away

Fields of green we used to live for meadows far as eyes can see I close my eyes and hear the wind blow Takes me where I long to be All you wanted was the sunlight One last walk to the sea Sweetest Dreams are all you asked for One last chance to breathe Dreaming of the endless summer Winter turned the skies to gray Daylight's gone, the flowers withered The coldest night wispered your name. All you saw was starlight One last wish to be free Sweetest Dreams are all you asked for will you remember me? All you wanted was tomorrow But time slipped away Sweetest Dreams are all you asked for Just One more summers day

Blind 04:21
I have never seen a face so lost inside a masquerade have you ever faced the truth Somehow these years were cruel Still so young yet you lost your youth Close your eyes to get a better view Can't you see that you pull the strings Til life falls apart at the seam You live and you lust Been betrayed by trust Yet somehow you're blind to see Your sojourn tears have lost their touch, maybe you've tried just a bit too much the test of time has turned the other way Your mind's illusions come and go from the brightest spark to the dullest glow but they don't tell you anything that you don't know Can't you see that you pull the strings Til life falls apart at the seam You live and you lust Been betrayed by trust Yet somehow you're blind to see

Our Story 04:43
The first breath still lingers The swansong marks the beginning The silence now fills the air The voice that haunts me from nowhere Why was I so blind That I couldn't see the signs That claimed my life I always thought that forever it was you and me The path to be free If I could turn back time I would change all my life Rewrite the pages made for you Would I learn from the mistakes I once made or repeat again The whole world in black and white The old day dawning from new night Would I take the chance To leave this world behind Wake up the sky If I could turn back time I would change all my life Rewrite the pages made for you Would I learn from the mistakes I once made or repeat again All of this time I've been chasing All the dreams I had of you Given the chance could I start once more And write, our story anew If I could turn back time I would change all my life Rewrite the pages made for you Would I learn from the mistakes I once made or repeat again All of this time I've been chasing All the dreams I had of you Given the chance could I start once more And write, our story anew

Blood 04:15
My angel cries out in pain The nightmares creeping in Ghosts come and whisper their names The Lost forgotten Heart of the child Innocence dies Changed by the time that befalls Blood pays the price of sins before Born out of hate Fueled by the lies they were told A Child guides the child that never learns The crimson moon high tonight The white rose withering Where has their childhood now gone? we Mourn for the young Heart of the child Innocence dies Changed by the time that befalls Blood pays the price of sins before Born out of hate Fueled by the lies they were told A Child guides the child that never learns How can they love, if we only teach them to hate How can we learn, If we only replicate Heart of the child Innocence dies Changed by the time that befalls Blood pays the price of sins before Born out of hate Fueled by the lies they were told A Child guides the child that never learns

Memories 04:30
Into the light up from the ashes A distant Memory The phoenix calls out from the sorrow within Shes looking down kept in her tower division never seen painful regret clouding desire she feels Singing words that were born without meaning Far from the world we see one hundred days being lost in the maze Searching for where she should be Feelings made by a heart that's not beating Fragile faced masquerade pulling her down as the curtains unbound leaving her bare to the world Last word The final sound in a dead world Suddenly she can see Gone is the ground under ashes she found lost in the dance of the sea Rising on Wings of the prayer shesbeen hiding Kept from her unaware Gone are the days of the coal blackened rain Finally found her way home Can we learn to believe Live life so free As we will dance for eternity part of the show that never ends Memories linger innocence shed Ashes to ash but it isnt the end fake one more smile and learn to pretend

Piano Black 09:30
Moment of silence The lights come on And Now the show begins Playing all the roles we made Hiding the true face within This is the final moment The end of everything we tried all our lives to achieve This is the final minute the sands of time are running out Give me one chance to breathe moment of weakness The walls come down for all the world to see All my fears uncertainty The war inside of myself This is the final moment The end of everything we tried all our lives to achieve This is the final minute the sand of time are running out Give me one chance to breathe ------------------------------------------ Born out of the Ashes In the ruins of the life I once had lost Regret comes soiled deep in our misery Hiding from the sun From the cradle to the stage Life is just a never ending show we play the role and then we start again Lifes an endless masquerade Hiding all the fears we hold within When masks are down we never are the same Taken all my chances Marked the chapter done And Now I can Move on Find hope, find peace, whole new reasons to be Live as life moves on From the cradle to the stage Life is just a never ending show we play the role and then we start again Lifes an endless masquerade Hiding all the fears we hold within When masks are down we never are the same -------------------------------------------------- All this time Ive tried to seem so strong In this time The waves tore down walls I once had built high deep in me feel The fire die for the last time Now I see I am only here, to live the lie Endless Nights, Endless silence Please just let me sleep Endless Doubt, Endless fear in me I cant release This is who I am This is who I've always been The mask has come undone This is what I am This is what I've always been The curtain falls
