From here to nevermore
A function of madness soars
A pawn in the endless time
The puppeteer sheltered from the rain
One without will, without cause
A king with no crown
No control, no control
The question
The truth?
How could this be the answer?
Around, around we spin
Around, around until the end
Around, around we dance
Around, around, again and again
A crash of sorrow on the shores of earth
A joy of a distant world
The helplessness, the despair
Yet hope
Letters in flames
Lives torn apart
The loss tearing, ripping at sanity
So many possibilities, fleeting
Dancing on the edge
Of memory
A world forgotten, a world of gold
Oh how could this be the answer?
How could this be my home?
As pain takes the form in the rust of the old
The shadow of fear, the shadow of war
The chain broken
Eternity foiled
Vengeance spoken
A hatred so old
A crash of sorrow on the shores of earth
A joy of a distant world
And we hunt through space
Hunt through time
The letters burn on the shadow earth
Lives torn apart
The loss tearing, ripping at sanity
So many possibilities, fleeting
Dancing on the edge
Of memory
As the words takes on form
The vanity is reborn
Nothing left but the bliss of madness
Everything and all
Nothing is real
A manic smile on the shore of sadness
A voice from the past
Greeting the chaos
A warm embrace of a dream
I'll descend into sanity
I take my leave
I'll welcome destiny
A crash of sorrow on the shores of earth
A joy of a distant world
We hunt through space
Hunt through time
The letters burn

Where Once
03:44
|

Where once there was hope
Now only a callous heart
Where once there was life
Now only a tired soul
The world is frozen
And your heart´s turned to ice
The darkness has fallen
All hope has died
Endless spirals, endless nights
Soul drained, eyes frayed
A light on the horizon
A scream in the storm
A few notes on the wind
A fire in your heart reborn
Where once there was passion
Now only a faint glow
Where once there was devotion
Now only ice
World faded, colors pale
Words carved, beneath the stone laid
Something lost, a broken core
One last hope, one last note
Never thought that I would loose all that I lost
Never thought I could survive that loss
Brought back by a madmans gaze
An injection of life from that stage
I know my end
I´ve seen it a thousand times
In a thousand dreams
Sinister shadows whisper softly
Every fear unleashed
To see the lights
To hear the scream of the storm
Those few notes
A fire in your heart reborn

Phantom Heart
03:00
|

My only true love is my cruelest enemy
My only meaning tears me apart
My very being hates me
I spill my heart and she stamps it defiled
I walk a crackling ledge and she pulls away the ground
And when I´ve hit the last edge
As I look into the vast space
The dark air neath my feet
The poisonous fumes chokes me I scream
I stare into the eyes of the beast
I know
That when I hear her breathe
And when I feel her beside me
Never, I´m never alone
She is the beast, fire and rage
She is the calm of storms
She is a burden of passion and love
Forever bound, obsessed to her heart
Arisen from shadow
Taken by her storm
Roaring through the night
See her powers form
Deep from her soul
Arisen into light
Burning pain into dust
Reaching eternal life
Eyes deep as life itself
A glance frail as glass
A homicidal reverie
She is the hurting seed
Lips red as blood
Before her I crawl
She is the mistress of the night
The phantom heart
