Remembrance 01:05
Lyrics: Answers that you seek may be hidden in the past, somewhere in between the demons and the light. The answer doesn't matter, when the question isn't right. Searching in a wrong place is a fight against the tide. What you have to do is to dig deep into your mind, maybe you won't like it, the thing that you will find. But some day you'll remember what wasn't there before and then you know remembrance was there all along.

Hourglass 04:20
Lyrics: Welcome to the weirdest scene you'll ever see, where time flies above and below the sea. The garden of light, where the dream’s still living. The mirror of the past breaks through. So take a breath and look at the hourglass. You've got some time to spend. Look through the dirt, your mind is full of mess, and no one will escape that. When all these candles die, the darkness falls. The gate will fade away and 'no one knows'. The garden of the blind, where you hear dreams screaming. Demons of the past break through. Your own mind is playing tricks on you The right way can sometimes be the wrong way too. Don’t even blink Don't close your eyes or you, you won’t see the one way out Oh oh no! you went astray and then you entered the endless grey.

Incomplete 04:09
Lyrics: I’m incomplete, chasing the meaning of all that matters. Tearing the scars apart as the void of years goes by. It’s been a while since the old days. Echoes of past mistakes follow me. I must forget and I can’t look back to beaten, broken and shackled times. Make me complete, stitch me together to make me whole. I cannot face again the sins of sleepless nights. Time will reveal what was meant to be, not so called friends nor the adversaries. I must forget and stay on my path. Find the way which leads out of the maze.

Lyrics: Two minutes to midnight with a dose in my hand, it’s the drug of my choice, the one that chose me. Two minutes past midnight with a dose in my head, my mind is clouded again, my thoughts are poisoned again. It’s time to forget, I’m sick of this venom pumping in my veins. It’s time to forget, 'cause it’s killing me and I am overdosed. Two minutes to midnight, I’m anxious again, fingers are trembling, palms sweating like hell. Two minutes past midnight, I know I have failed, my thoughts are falling apart and you’re tearing my mind. I love you, I hate you, I still wanna break you, don’t love me, don’t hate me, but still you deceive me. Your silence haunting, your silence keeps stalking, ignoring, ignoring the good that’s still left in me. Master, cut me open with your rusty knife and scrape the good out, scrape it all out, just like you did with my life. Master, cut me open with your rusty knife and scrape the good out, scrape it all out, just like you did, like you did with my life.

Hidden Sun 04:14
Lyrics: Another day hiding behind my walls. Another day blind when my darkness falls. Another day praying for any light. Another day trying to turn the tide. And I wish that the hidden sun would light my day. And I wish that one day you would cross my way. And I wish that the hidden sun would light my day. And I wish that one day you would cross my way. My night is dark and I don’t know, how long it will take until the end. Maybe the fi re will fi nd me, but now I just live before the dawn. And I wish for you, pray for you now, that you fi nd my way, light my way home. And I wish for you, pray for you now, that you light the way which leads to you. And I wish that the hidden sun would light my day. And I wish that one day you would cross my way. And I wish that the hidden sun would light my day. And I wish that one day you would cross my way. You’d cross my way. And I wish that you would cross my way. And I wish that you would light my day.

Homesick 04:34
Lyrics: I hear the echo of my past, I hear it calling me, come home, come home again, I know you miss me. Wherever I go it does not feel the same, In this cage I used to call my home. Locked up in my cell that I know so well, I dream of escaping it once more. Somewhere out there is a special place, the one that I can call home. A place where no one’s a stranger and no one’s alone. Somewhere out there is a special place, the one that I can call home. And I feel homesick, 'cause I’m so far away. Like Standing I wish to rove among the stars, I wish to roam the endless green. Insincere siren’s call keeps dragging me back to this strange and empty space. Somewhere out there is a special place, the one that I can call home. A place where no one’s a stranger and no one’s alone. Somewhere out there is a special place, the one that I can call home. And I feel homesick, 'cause I am so far away. Yes I’m so far away. Away, yes I’m so far away. Alone, and no one is alone. Alone, and no one is alone. Somewhere out there’s a place, a very special place I call home. Somewhere out there’s a place, where no one is alone. Somewhere out there’s a place, a very special place I call home. Somewhere out there’s a place, where no one is alone, and I’m not alone.

Lyrics: Still many words left unspoken. All this silence keeps me broken. Drawing scar-like lines on my skin for every question that’s still open. Silence will fall, when I ask you, because you don’t care about me anymore. Silence must fall, because you’re a liar and there is no truth left to say. There is no truth to tell. I bear my skin stained. I bear my skin tainted. Silence, silence will fall, when the question is asked. Because you don’t care about me anymore. Silence must fall. Out of sight means out of mind, I leave the silence behind. Do you think it’s easy? I bear my skin stained, I bear my skin tainted, as a reminder, should I forget, that your silence still haunts me. I bear my skin stained. I bear my skin tainted.

Nomeolvides 02:46
Lyrics: Whispers echo through the forest, younger before, but aging no more. We are growing old, you know, and suddenly you are no more. Fields where we used to walk, hand in hand, heart in heart. Now I wander by myself, with and without you. And where we used to lay our heads, now you’ve found your final rest. Remember me, when you walk the azure sea. Forget me not, when you lie in azure sea. Forget me not. Forget me. Forget me not and watch over me. Forget me not. Forget me. Forget me not as I’ll never forget you.

Lyrics: This is solitude my realm, my keep. You search everywhere, but I am here. Where the Sun does not rise, but where I am at peace, where I’m free. The Master can’t find me. This is my garden of memories, where blue fl owers grow, and my heart heals. Sister of my soul, you will forever live in here, in my azure field. All of these elements roam the plains of my mind. Creating universe, the storm that’s raging inside. This is the tune that sounds through my dark night. This is the soothing touch of the Sun’s light. Saviour’s whispering a lullaby bye to the First buried deep and left to die. To the First forgotten and left to die. To all of those remembered, but left to die. Wandering in between demons and light. Answers to who I am and what I’ve done. I may have fallen over a thousand times, but it’s not falling it’s rising what counts. The First gave me a lesson I’ll never forget. The Sister’s wisdom and kindness lives on. Thanks to the Saviour, I’ve witnessed the Sun’s light. And Master’s betrayal is burning in my mind. All of these elements make me who I am. All of these elements make me live again.

Amnesia 01:54
Lyrics: I’ve been frozen for so long. And now here I am. Who am I? Lying in this attic like a broken mirror with missing pieces. Can you tell me who I am? Can you tell me what’s my name? Oh, I’ll tell you, who you are. You are nothing but a memory slowly fading away. Disappearing forever. Don’t worry, It will be over soon. Did you really think you could escape me? Did you really think you could escape your master?

Forgotten 05:36
Lyrics: In the evening that no one remembers, I stand here holding her hand. It’s so fragile, I don’t wanna crush it, the blood is pulsing in her veins. In the evening long forgotten, I stand here by the window, gently holding that hand with a knife, the hand of my dear murderer. First snow flakes are melting on the window, as grey figures are passing by. I am looking at all these people, all of them have nothing to say. All of them have one thing in common. All of them just ceased to care. In the evening that has been lost, in this place that may not exist, I sit here quietly on the floor, in the arms of the killer of mine. The blood keeps pulsing deep in her veins. Her fragile hand is still holding mine. The other hand is clasping the knife so gently stuck to my spine. In the evening that no one remembers, the Piece of Stone has shattered within. Now I know there’s no one to care, no hand to hold, just the hole in the back. At that night that I did not live through, when all the tears have frozen within, snow flakes were melting on the window and I never felt pain anymore.
