The Edge of All I Know

Entwined

Heralds of progression gather
A plot wrought in malignant delight
There’s nothing that lasts forever
But nothing will change our faith tonight

Ages of knowledge rejected
Searching for more but there’s less to find
Answers remain undetected
Questions arise inside

The heart of our dream lies shattered
Came to an end in the dead of night
Naïve aspiration scattered
In new-born obsession to ignite

Ages of knowledge rejected
Searching for more but there’s less to find
Answers remain undetected
But questions arise inside

Burden so deep
Hindrance so steep
Eternal sleep
Seduce me...

Ages of knowledge rejected
Searching for more but there’s less to find
Answers remain undetected
Questions arise inside

Chasing the wind like a spirit fly
Through autumn trees towards the sky
Drifting away as years pass by
On the roots that we deny

Chasing the wind like a spirit fly
Through autumn trees towards the sky
Drifting away as years pass by
From the roots that we deny

From the roots that we defy

On these roots we still rely


Void

Take your leave tonight

Destination hidden
On a path so clear
How can someone so close be so hard to find

Close my eyes, remember
Anger flows inside
Hide the pain and all the fears inside my mind

Feel the void inside me
Hear the silent decree
Taste the emptiness and take your leave

Loneliness surrounds me
Solitude defines me
Taste the emptiness and take your leave tonight

In my dreams appearing
Lost within my sight
Blackened is the void within when all else dies

I see you approaching
Ignorant, sincere
I’m impassive but inside my fears arise

Feel the void inside me
Hear the silent decree
Taste the emptiness and take your leave

Loneliness surrounds me
Solitude defines me
Taste the emptiness and take your leave tonight

Once upon a failing star
I feel you inside me
A fleeting glimpse felt from afar
But you’re not here to see...

Take your leave tonight

Feel the void inside me
Hear the silent decree
Taste the emptiness and take your leave

Loneliness surrounds me
Solitude defines me
Taste the emptiness and take your leave tonight

Destination hidden
On a path so clear
I should care less but reprise, feel tears arise

I see death in your eyes
You’re deaf to my cries
But you’ll never be the last thing on my mind

Feel the void inside me
Hear the silent decree
Taste the emptiness and take your leave

Loneliness surrounds me
Solitude defines me
Taste the emptiness and take your leave tonight


Rage

Silence, breathing, honour by surprise
Weeping clearly through disguise
Seeking, reaching out into a depth
Longing, ruling, try to hide

Fear all you fear when clouds disappear
Behind all the madness you try to be unseen

Hunger, raging, sense to feel alive
Charging knowledge, see no crime
Depend, awake, all the senses burn
Feeling, seeking to return

Fear all you fear when clouds disappear
Behind all the madness you try to be unseen

Faster, stronger, than the average
Every bone seeks all it missed
Burning darkness creeps inside of me
Maybe I am my own enemy

Fear all you fear when clouds disappear
Behind all the madness you try to be unseen

Lay down the pain that you felt deep inside
I know how it feels to burn your heart out
Cleary I’m not judging on anything
Lay down the rage that you want to set free

Lay down the pain that you felt deep inside
I know how it feels to burn your heart out
Cleary I’m not judging on anything
Lay down the rage that you want to set free

Trusted the voices
That cried out my name
We had no options
We chose the same

Hunting, further than I’ve ever gone
Chasing beyond what I’ve done
Searching reasons to endure this pain
Anger, sadness, go insane

Fear all you fear when clouds disappear
Behind all the madness you try to be unseen

Lay down the pain that you felt deep inside
I know how it feels to burn your heart out
Cleary I’m not judging on anything
Lay down the rage that you want to set free


Beyond Goodbye

Could this be the end of thoughts
A lesson to recall
A start to feel this fight of mercy
A breathless thought of sin

Cause every time the earth moves
I start choking
I wander off alone
Cause every time the lie fools
I am falling
It’s a reason to go insane

Hear my pride
I’m already wasted
With every thought
Inner fight
I’m already fading

Look away beyond goodbye
Where the lightning strikes inside
Maybe for one day release it
With a perfect world in sight

Cause every time the earth moves
I am crawling
I start dreaming of what has been
Cause every time I feel that
Of what I’m choosing
Don’t you hear the sound of sin

Hear my pride
I’m already wasted
With every thought
Inner fight
I’m already fading

I found my strength in those
that didn’t want to compliment me
My only reason to embrace this life
Is on defensive

Hear my pride
I’m already wasted
With every thought
Inner fight
I’m already fading


The Night Awakes

The night awakes, a storm in sight
Seek everything you want to hide tonight
The selfish hide away into their homes

The breeze betrays what lies in sight
For everything you want to fight tonight
And maybe you’ll awake before it’s dawn

Fear - a distant emotion, feeding your anger and whispering doubt in your mind
Faith - deceitful devotion, bleeding in madness, delivering hope for the blind
Trust - a word with the power to grant you freedom, if you can leave all else behind
Truth - the hunger for knowledge, one of the greatest virtues of mankind

The prospect of an epic fight
Is masking fears with pure delight
No thoughts are spent on that what lies ahead

Adrenaline rules basic fright
No profit is found in defeat tonight
No heartbeat is delayed before it’s dawn

Fear - a distant emotion, feeding your anger and whispering doubt in your mind
Faith - deceitful devotion, bleeding in madness, delivering hope for the blind
Trust - a word with the power to grant you freedom, if you can leave all else behind
Truth - the hunger for knowledge, one of the greatest virtues of mankind

Goodbye to life as you’ve known it all
Everything you’ve ever fought before
Cause maybe the truth is what lies ahead
And maybe the strength is yourself instead

Fear - a distant emotion, feeding your anger and whispering doubt in your mind
Faith - deceitful devotion, bleeding in madness, delivering hope for the blind
Trust - a word with the power to grant you freedom, if you can leave all else behind
Truth - the hunger for knowledge, one of the greatest virtues of mankind


Closure

Long ago
I attended in a dream
Left behind
In my misery, groaned with pain

Crazed inside
Anxious and furious derailed
Lost in motion
No-one was left to blame

And it, it hurt inside

People tried to warn me of the past, the track would hunt me down so fast...

Looked up
Memorised the eternal rain
Took a notion of clearance
My future gain

And it, it hurt inside

Filled my mind
With a future
A life ahead

People tried to warn me of the past, the track would hunt me down so fast...

Never saw the trail of lies, the fight, the cries that sprung into my eyes

Lately I feel I’m suffocating
Down in happiness
I’m drowning in a river of a life I never had

It feels so irreversible
A break, a crack, a split
A notion of insanity
Is lurking in my head

Will you be mine, my life, by my side
My trust, my truth, my sacrifice
Cause you’re the only one I want
The one I depend on

A light awakes, a rule to break
A finalised embrace
A turn into a formal space
Forever undying maze

Long ago
I attended in a dream
Left behind
In my misery, groaned with pain

Crazed inside
Anxious and furious derailed
Lost in motion
No-one was left to blame

And it, it hurt


A Thousand Words

Deep behind chestnut eyes
Lies a secret known to few
Proud, enclosing no lies
A deep-brown that speaks to you

Standing tall across the room, a world is in between
Too far away to reach you, yet so close that I can
Feel you inside of me
On the edge of all I know a voice calls out to me
I listen harder than before but
I cannot hear what it’s saying to me...

Deep within my own chest
Lies a weight too hard to bear
Straight, exposing but jest
A posture that’s hard to wear

Standing tall across the room, a world is in between
Too far away to reach you, yet so close that I can
Feel you inside of me
On the edge of all I know a voice calls out to me
I listen harder than before but
I cannot hear what it’s saying to me...

A look, inner self exposed
Understanding without speech
A touch, in silence enclosed
For a thousand words to breach

Standing tall across the room, a world is in between
Too far away to reach you, yet so close that I can
Feel you inside of me
On the edge of all I know a voice calls out to me
I listen harder than before but
I cannot hear what it’s saying to me...


Roots of Reality

Soon the daylight will come, then it will be gone
For now the wicked control the void in my soul
Doubt is ruling my mind, and
I found out nighttime awakens the beast inside
Flee the recurring dream that’s haunting me

Silent the night awakens me
With the song of an evening breeze
Open my eyes but I can’t see
And all motion seems to freeze

Question the roots of reality
But the notion seems so real
Trapped in a state no-one can flee
When there’s nothing left to feel

Soon the daylight will come, then it will be gone
For now the wicked control the void in my soul
Doubt is ruling my mind, and
I found out nighttime awakens the beast inside
Flee the recurring dream that’s haunting me
and you

Nightmare awakens the fear in my heart
In a never-ending theme
Feel insanity rising up in me
How do I know it’s a dream?

Even the man who is pure in the heart
And speaks in prayer by night
May become the wolf when the wolfs-bane blooms
And the winter moon is bright

Silent the night awakens me
With the song of an evening breeze
Open my eyes but I can’t see
And all motion seems to freeze

Question the roots of reality
But the notion seems so real
Trapped in a state no-one can flee
When there’s nothing left to feel

Soon the daylight will come, then it will be gone
For now the wicked control the void in my soul
Doubt is ruling my mind, and
I found out nighttime awakens the beast inside
Flee the recurring dream that’s haunting me
and you

When the night conquers all I can see
And my soul yearns to be set free
Time to be remembered what used to be
And to wonder who used to be me


Angelheart

Look at me Angelheart
You are a demon feeding on disguise in me
A lullaby of lists
Awaken though remain in peace

Goodbye my leading hand
A guidance to whatever would turn bad in me
The open wound of light
A detaining cold assembled fear

Look at me Angelheart
Might I deceive the features that you found in me
A world of sadness and
Mistaken though forever free

Goodbye my leading hand
Remain in memories and hide those tears for me
As clear as it can be
My angel born, my prophecy

My mind
Is undetecting thee
For I elevate
This dream, it seems for real
But a voice alerts
That its gonna be the end of all I know

It is a story passing by my side
It is a worry, for now I am without

It feels like I’m already gone
My ashes finally are there where they belong
My remains fly away so far
Tonight I’m sleeping with the stars

Don’t you cry boy
My life goes on
Say goodbye boy
The tale remains untold

Oh my Angelheart
Don’t ever forget me
Goodbye my leading hand
Born in mystery


Awakening the Dream

Trinity

Right on the eve of battle,
Next to the battleground
Two brothers stood there quietly
Expecting yet the third

Legend tells us of the brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are unified

Once for truth and once for wisdom,
Prophecies and visions fade
Once for love, once for horror
Fading in the night

This is not the truth, but not a lie
It is no wisdom but a...

Right on the eve of battle,
Next to the battleground
The third was striding to his kin
United once again

Legend tells us of the brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are unified

Never linger
Soon you will find the way
Through the never
Sadness will go astray
Lead the way
Harvest the day
Soon you will find your way

Once for truth and once for wisdom,
Prophecies and visions fade
Once for love, once for horror
Fading in the night

Never linger
Soon you will find the way
Through the never
Sadness will go astray
Lead the way
Harvest the day
Soon you will find your way

Trice denied, still believing
Standing up to the world
Three will stand after all is gone
The Holy Brotherhood

Right on the edge of battle,
Deep in the battleground
The Trinity is striking back
United once again

Legend tells us of the brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are unified

The legend tells of brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are one!


Strings of Fate

Silent the vacuum of time claims all our souls but one
Guild of thieves, master of mages, no-one hears the call

Louder than the one before the greatest king proclaims
Still the lubricant of Toki prophesies the fall

The gods call out to find a hero
Will he find out the new tomorrow?

For now, I bleed
My destiny
Shall I succeed
Will I be freed?

The never, forever,
Desires more
My body, is mourning
But I keep trying

This is not what I felt
In my mind I am free
This is not goodbye

This is my quest, but no-one knows
If I will do what I’m supposed to

The great walls of time and space are closing everywhere
There on the highway to nothing no-one seems to care

Where can I stay
This mournful day?

Whom can I pray
What’s there to say?

Evermore the days are counting selfless suicide
Never will the gods be ready for the genocide

Towards our fate we run together
Forever denying the never
Surrounding us

Memories will keep the greatest
Alive in our minds, in our thoughts
Surrounding us


Curse of the Wise

Ever had
A memory
You wished
It could come true?

The memory
So close to me
Will never fade
It’s how I paid
The gift of sight
Vision of light
My Master’s will
The dream fulfilled

In this tragedy
My only friend is a lie

The thoughts
Are all surrounded
By darkest clouds
I sing to

My soul reveals
It’s a battle
I could never win
I should lose

Never believed
For none they grieved
Do they not know
We do not bow
The nightmares last (but)
Stay in the past
Why do they taunt
These thoughts I haunt

Our only dream
As we have seen
Will be revealed
Our fate be healed
No-one to say
The only way
The one of tears
Our greatest fears

Some day they will see
The curse that lies on me is real
For this day I yearn
Their innocence will burn with me

It’s as we have foreseen
Our hands will be washed clean of guilt
In time we will be freed
For no-one else we’ll bleed this lie

When silent screams resound
Our fear will be unbound at last
For this day we yearn
Their innocence will burn with me

For this day we yearn
Their innocence will burn with me


Forever Me

It was for you
All that was true
For this ending shall not come

In my heart you belong
Makes me weak, makes me strong
Feels like dying though I belong

Fear all the thoughts I had
My memories became more than that
My tears keep on flowing
The wind keeps on blowing
Forever you are

Deep within it is so clear
Where it begins can’t we just be near
I keep on searching
The next thing that’s lurking
Forever you are me

All I have now
Is my sad cry
Should I wonder what shall come

All the lies beyond the secret’s fading
My own mind becomes a dreadful trap
For you came to me strangely behaving
Maybe all of this is to forget

Fear all the thoughts I had
My memories became more than that
My tears keep on flowing
The wind keeps on blowing
Forever you are

Deep within it is so clear
Where it begins can’t we just be near
I keep on searching
The next thing that’s lurking
Forever you are me

All the lies beyond the secret’s fading
My own mind becomes a dreadful trap
For you came to me strangely behaving
Maybe all of this is to forget

All the lies beyond the secret’s fading
Maybe all of this is to forget
For you came to me strangely behaving
My own mind becomes a dreadful trap


Once upon a lifetime

Once upon a lifetime
Never far away
Once upon a lifetime
It leads you astray

On your path to glory
It takes you by surprise
On your path to glory
You will meet your demise

How
Should I
Know?
What I will see?
What I will think?
What I’ll be feeling?

Should I embrace this vision
Should I despise these thoughts?
Should I despise this vision
Should I embrace these thoughts?

I will acknowledge your voice
I will concede
I will acknowledge your voice
I will pay heed

(Can’t see, is there)
No
Way for me?
Can’t I flee?
Am I
Free?
I can’t see...
Won’t I be?

Is there
No
Way for me?
Can’t I flee?
Am IFree?
I can’t see...
Won’t I be?

I am!

Dreams unfold as days go by
And stars stand brightly in the sky
I will never say goodbye
‘cause this will last until I die

I will embrace this vision
I won’t despise these thoughts
I won’t despise this vision
I will embrace these thoughts

I will acknowledge your voice
I will concede
I will acknowledge your voice
I will pay heed


Running Together

Quietly but always watching
Hidden in the night
Eagerly waiting the morrow
Hidden from your sight

Spotted only in your dreams
But nevertheless there
Lurking back from out your vision
Never seem to care

Repelled only by a knife
Their kind will bring you fear
Follow not their song in darkness
’t Leads away from here

Female faeries, frightful horrors
Riding on the storm
Luring travellers away
In their hideous form

They are forever
They’re standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

They are forever
They’re standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

Semblance of a poor old woman
In ash-coloured clothes
Apron thrown across the shoulder
But it’s you she loathes

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

They are forever
They’re standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

They are forever
They’re standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside


Lost in a Dream

I saw a thing I could never believe
A distant sight I would like to retrieve
It is a vision my mind will set free
If I could remember how it came to be

The image is fading, it withers away
I can’t be sure that I’ll take grasp some day
Deep in my heart I know that’s what I seek
But somehow I wonder, to whom does it speak

Memories lost in a nightmare of pain
Images screaming you’re going insane
Never believed in it till it was gone
‘t Is as a dreamworld, the magic undone

It never strayed my thoughts my soul’s so weak
What I despised most is now what I seek
My heart still craving for that I once held
Hopelessly longing for all this to end

Hear you call my name
Am I dreaming?
It’s always the same
Though I know
That I lost myself
Tonight

Maybe the truth shall reveal
When I sleep
Visions attack in my head
And so I weep

Calling the light from within
It might be cruel
Lately no vision’s the same
Whom do I fool

All the lights might seem the same
Though it’s as they call my name
Feel like something’s watching me go down fall in a trap

Seek the world out for a chance
But it seems to miss the glance
This is harder than I thought

Can’t you see what’s on my mind
All the visions fall behind
Try to catch them but it’s like I’m trying to escape

All the anger that I gain
Makes me yearn to be insane
This is not my state of mind


Helpless

See me wandering, in the darkest deep of shadows
The world above so bright, my dearest enemy
Where once lived happiness, where sorrow couldn’t bear
But I am drowning here, too far to even care

See me wandering, alone and cold and bare
My deepest memories, no grief, no sadness there
It’s dark and cold in here, in this forgotten lair
Loneliness prevails, how could I ever dare

I can’t pray for mercy, ’cause there’s no soul to hear
So I stay here, helpless, in my remains of sense
There’s no place for regret, ’cause only I am here
So I remain helpless, behind this solid fence

Hear me muttering, of long forgotten times
My head is bursting, with long and brutal chimes
Still can see the past, a road enclosed by limes
But haunting through my head, are black, distorted rhymes

Hear me muttering, about my dreadful debt
I can’t remember why, so long my soul has slept
Immortal, my regret, endless have I wept
No tears will wash away, the secret I have kept

I can’t pray for mercy, ’cause there’s no soul to hear
So I stay here, helpless, in my remains of sense
There’s no place for regret, ’cause only I am here
So I remain helpless, behind this solid fence

Can’t you see why I am weeping,
can’t you see that I repent?
No one knows the pain that I feel,
no one knows just what I meant

Years will come and years will pass but
I can’t leave this unlocked cell
Leaves will grow and leaves will fall but
endless is this living hell

There’s no soul that lives in darkness,
no soul knows eternal pain but
My soul will forever perish,
evermore ’till I’m insane

I can’t pray for mercy, ’cause there’s no soul to hear
So I stay here, helpless, in my remains of sense
There’s no place for regret, ’cause only I am here
So I remain helpless, behind this solid fence
