The Ravages of Time

New Era 04:21
Stand on the shoulders of giants See the new world about to begin As I reflect on this moment It washes over me this chapter must end Eyes so blind I try to remember The days we had Spent together once more I see no Helios Sun Just Obsidian skies A truth to remind us All things, may crumble and fall Those that outlive us all They someday will change I always thought of forever But eternity’s come to an end I never knew that the game We played was a tragedy The final lament Broken hearts Will pave the road back home This age has past The new world has begun I see no Helios Sun Just Obsidian skies A truth to remind us All things, may crumble and fall Those that outlive us all They someday will change

Believe In Me and See Tell me what it means To care Be there The greatest heart laid bare This is the road set out for nowhere Follow it once more Still we're blind to all the signs Like we were before I will set out to wander Through this maze of thorns Never lost, always searching Still I feel Alone I am walking in shadows Losing my direction as you take me home Believe In Me and See Tell me what it means To care, be there Greatest heart laid bare When will we face our new beginning Bathe in morning glow Walk among the fields of gold Finally let them go But I sit and I'm watching Both our worlds colide In that moment so clearly I now see that This is the point where our past and all our futures fade away into the void As we are falling we dont hit the ground As we are sinking we don't make a sound Die for the moment but live for the sound Hold on to the piece of the heart we have found Believe In Me and See Tell me what it means To care, be there Greatest heart laid bare

Ashes 04:49
Losing Time Seconds turn to hours Standing on the sidelines staring at the looking glass Turn away I can't face this moment May we stay beneath this sun, Until we meet again The cold night calls Will it ever be the same The fairytale's over now I can't sleep Voices echo in my dreams Of everything that might have been This is the end of the Road Ashes in an empty world The Broken Hearts lost deep beneath the snow This is the path of relief Suffering like poetry The beauty of a life we'll never see Shed no tears Nothing lasts forever Even tallest mountains someday will return to dust Hush my dear Let the silence take you Hold on to the memories before it's too late This empty room Walls are closing in on me It feels like I'm drowning Now I cant breathe Reaching out for my relief The rain will always ease the pain This is the end of the Road Ashes in an empty world The Broken Hearts lost deep beneath the snow This is the path of relief Suffering like poetry The beauty of a life we'll never see

The nights are colder now Living in the fantasy Of when we dared to dream The truth is coming out Floating in the endless sea With no one there for me When all is said and done Nothing else remains Can we hold on or fall forevermore Before the morning comes Who'll be left to blame? We're calling this the calm before the flame I'm running out of time I can feel the future fade My hope will sail away If you could stay behind Would you find another way Or relive yesterday When all is said and done Nothing else remains Can we hold on or fall forevermore Before the morning comes Who'll be left to blame? We're calling this the calm before the flame This my moment If we take this chance The breath I've taken Before the final dance When all is said and done Nothing else remains Can we hold on or fall forevermore Before the morning comes Who'll be left to blame? We're calling this the calm before the flame

Your silver tounge Hid the truth too long Slowly the light's breaking through I'll play along Throw the dice once more The storm is coming in soon I'm giving up Farewell to what we have lost I leave my past behind Savour the loss Driven by empty words I watch our bridges burn I tried to find Better peace of mind playing with chance for too long I waited through Loved and hated you I'll walk away now for good I'm giving up Farewell to what we have lost I leave my past behind Savour the loss Driven by empty words I watch our bridges burn Nothing to save No Halcyon days Just new scars left inside Say you're ok I'll embrace this pain It proves I'm still alive I'm giving up Farewell to what we have lost I leave my past behind Savour the loss Driven by empty words I watch our bridges burn I'm giving up Farewell to what we have lost I leave my past behind Savour the loss Driven by empty words I watch our bridges burn

There is something stranger here Building deep within Telling me that I am not alone I have been lost in this maze of emotions I wander around waiting for edens song When my whole world turns to agony Take away my pain Then your voice is my Therapy All of the love kept inside of me Things we'll never say Would you know now if tomorrow never came Though the book was never told Stories will unfold Writing the last page with my blood Hopelessly waiting, there's no happy ending Can we hold on until the last lantern dies When my whole world turns to agony Take away my pain Then your voice is my Therapy All of the love kept inside of me Things we'll never say Would you know now if tomorrow never came

Our Regrets 04:31
I am your pain Voice in the darkness That leads you astray Doubting every Choice that was made Breaking them down Every lie each mistake No Forgetting I am the fear thats inside The truth, the broken disguise The darkness deep in your mind I am the doubt at the start The void deep inside your heart The place you never dreamed of I have let you down Revealing who I am The pauper crown Taken it's hold Maybe the time wasnt right You go onwards and I only hurt you Someday soon I'll meet you there By the ocean of regret we share I will be there If i am needed The drug that you bear Your addiction So unaware Fueling the pain I will bring you despair No escaping This has gone too far I can see my own face In every scar You cannot hide Maybe the time wasnt right You go onwards and I only hurt you Someday soon I'll meet you there By the ocean of regret we share

Kingdom 05:03
Everything born Has a road set before it Even the pawns in our play While we were dreaming The clock hands were freezing And now time lead us astray Releasing, Repeating It's just the rules of nature Tearing us apart again Forever, I'm waiting Just want to feel the sunlight shining on our skin In your eyes I see a place where we are worlds apart Far off in a distant place The kingdom for our scars We spent our lives Reaching for new horizons But never followed the plan Every hope, every dream Our ambitions Are only lines in the sand Releasing, Repeating It's just the rules of nature Tearing us apart again One Moment, Of Silence Is not enough to change the world That we live in In your eyes I see a place where we are worlds apart Far off in a distant land a kingdom for our scars And every night I hear you calling A shade from the shadows But I can see a new tomorrow we'll never get back In your eyes I see a place where we are worlds apart Far off in a distant place The kingdom for our scars

Wonderland 03:54
If Life is not just a dream Is there more than it seems? A distant thunder calls out to me My heart is beating like it never has before I face the mirror, don't recognise myself Opened my mind, reached out to learn The Secrets of life Follow the path before you Trust in yourself to know the way before your eyes unveil this new wonderland Shades of Life Arent just black and white Surrender to yourself There will be new horizons before you Desperate times soon will pass you by Don't give in to dispair There is more than tomorrow can give you The weight is heavy, pushing down on me I seek relief from drowning in this sea This hollow feeling always there takes me down to the deep Canvas set bare before you No need for flames to light your way Before your eyes unveil this new wonderland Shades of Life Arent just black and white Surrender to yourself There will be new horizons before you Desperate times soon will pass you by Don't give in to dispair There is more than tomorrow can give you

This Life 03:23
We're frozen here Like a candle in the shadows The end draws near No Tomorrow, Time to borrow Take this life of mine Break it, make it shine Let the cradle fall To begin it all When Time holds still I still hear you, I still feel you Like photographs All the same days, Never changing Take this life of mine Break it, make it shine take this soul so frail lift it let it sail

Every night she will stand by the ocean See the star filled sky All alone while the city is sleeping Watch the world pass by When I am weak The silence sings to me Now angels weep And call me to the sea All the wonder she kept from her childhood Was not made to last Though she thought it was just the beginning The end came too fast When I am weak The silence sings to me Now angels weep And call me to the sea ---------------------------------------------------------- One last winter If we stay strong All those memories will now live on Hear the voices of a thousand angels They are calling out to me Singing songs of a new horizon Where our future must be Move on Find out what lies beyond Leave the old world behind you Sail on Through the oceans of time Find a new life together Wishfilled longing For days gone by All the greenfields Joy and good times We are soon reaching the final hour then our new life can begin Say no prayers for all the roads not taken Just remember who I've been Move on Find out what lies beyond Leave the old world behind you Sail on through the oceans of time Find a new life together ---------------------------------------------------------- I had tried to stay with you But the waves were too high They were drawn by the sirens calling For the final goodbye ---------------------------------------------------------- Remember I'm with you I'll always be by your side Forever I'll be there I never will forget for All those I cherish, wont pass me by They will stay with me at the end of time
