The Showdown

Showdown! Oh... I've been searching for longer than I can remember I believe in on a hope that will meet again Well I've been praying that I will get just one more chance And I've been dreaming that this night would come You thought all was over, that you never would see me again Stop to look over your shoulder but is far from over yet This is the night The final dark where we will meet The rescue insight, is only you and me This is the fight The final war that will end it all I will make things right Are you ready, ready for the showdown! Ready for the showdown! You've been hiding deep within the darkest shadows And you've been hoping that I would forget but I never forget, no You've been wishing that I only exist in the dreams You've been dreaming this night would never come You thought all was over, that you never would see me again Stop to look over your shoulder but is far from over yet This is the night The final dark where we will meet The rescue insight, is only you and me This is the fight The final war that will end it all I will make things right Are you ready, ready for the showdown! You thought all was over, that you never would see me again Stop to look over your shoulder but is far from over yet This is the night The final dark where we will meet The rescue insight, is only you and me This is the fight The final war that will end it all I will make things right Are you ready, ready for the showdown! Ready for the showdown! Are you ready for the showdown! I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready for the showdown Ready for a showdown

I will try to understand all your intentions It’s a whole new world of strange interventions Yet I am still drawn to it, still drawn to it We have grown to understand mortal freedom What it leads to the prices we have to pay It’s firing back on us, and this might be the game You still wait for a sign, for the stars to be aligned You still hope, you still pray, as you wake on Judgment Day Yeah, wake up! You’ve been hanging on to false explanations From the oldest books that needed no questioning After all you believed, you would be freed, oh yeah I’m still standing here with facts, with a purpose Trying to make you hear, need you to be listening I am telling you, this might save you this time You still wait for a sign, for the stars to be aligned You still hope, you still pray, as you wake on Judgment Day You still wait for a sign, for the stars to be aligned You still hope, you still pray, as you wake on Judgment Day Ah... as you wake up! As you wake on Judgment Day... You still wait for a sign, for the stars to be aligned You still hope, you still pray, as you wake on Judgment Day You still wait for a sign, for the stars to be aligned You still hope, you still pray, as you wake on Judgment Day Wake up As you wake on Judgment Day! Wake up! Wake up! Yeah! Wake up! Wake up!

Oh, yeah Her tiny voice makes such a noise It still echoes in my mind Do not speak, just try to sleep Rest your weary head It’s time for me to leave now It’s time to set the record straight It’s time for me to leave now, she says Never again, you won’t trust in strangers again The words they say cut like razorblades Time after time you say Never again, you won’t trust in strangers again You pass them by, like the changing skies Time after time you say So full of life the waters run Through the valleys down below I sit and watch to clear my mind, trying to focus now The lies have got to end now She needs to know the truth somehow The lies have got to end now, she says Never again, you won’t trust in strangers again The words the say, cut like razorblades Time after time you say Never again, you won’t trust in strangers again You pass them by, like the changing skies Time after time you say Never again, you won’t trust in strangers again The words they say cut like razorblades Time after time you say Never again, you won’t trust in strangers again You pass them by, like the changing skies Time after time you say Never again! That’s right, you say Yeah

At first it seems like there is no life No hope and no dreams Only embraced by the silence You know it’s here, the time has arrived When the past will be erased And all your dark thoughts will fade away You can change it Only you can turn all into gold Make everything glow again Make the stars shine The world is yours and mine It burdens your heart, haunting your mind Knowing that you are the only one that can save yourself An army of ghosts whisper in your ear Making you hesitate Making you stay in the dark You can change it Only you can turn all into gold Make everything glow again Make the stars shine The world is yours Turn all into gold Make everything glow again Make the stars shine The world is yours and mine Oh... Only you can change it Only you, only you can turn all into gold Make everything glow again Make the stars shine The world is yours Turn all into gold Make everything glow again Make the stars shine The world is yours and mine! Yes, it is

Rising with the setting sun Never time to rest Had to get this off my mind Get it off my chest Re-appearing deep inside Scenes I cannot stand She is fading out of time Bloodstains on my hands She was all I had in mind, we would runaway Whispering to haunt my mind, every single day All I left behind was tears And cries of great despair She said she would meet me there Once my work was done Ara! You left me hanging high and dry Never told me why Can I, can I undo what I have done? I thought you were the one, oh... Thought you were the one Seem I cannot settle down They’ll pick up my trace I am known in every town Pictures of my face Everything’s reminding me Of all the time we spent together She will come to rescue me She will hear my cry Ara! You left me hanging high and dry Never told me why Can I, can I undo what I have done? I thought you would outshine the sun, oh yeah There’s a movement at my door Maybe she has found my hideout Things will be like just before Bloodlines sealed my fate Ara! You left me hanging high and dry Never told me why Can I, can I undo what I have done? Ara! You left me hanging high and dry Never told me why Can I, can I undo what I have done? I thought you were the one... Oh...! I thought you were the one I thought you were the one

I can see you now like a million suns alight As they pierce the darkest night When all hope is gone and lost, I know... When I was a child I had the strangest dream A thousand mirrors all reflecting the same beam It seem so hard when you’re left alone outside To lack a part in all the greatest things in life Now I’m at this crossroad The light will be my guide I can see you now like a million suns alight As they pierce the darkest night When all hope is gone and lost, I know... So real at the time making up my mind A stronger current pulling me into its line When all hope was lost you became my friend And now we stand here in unity again Now we’re at this crossroad The light will be our guide I can see you now like a million suns alight As they pierce the darkest night When all hope is gone and lost... I can see you now like a million suns alight As they pierce the darkest night When all hope is gone and lost When all hope is gone and lost Forever I’ll be here, right by your side When all the times change and our worlds collide When I was a child I had the strangest dream A thousand mirrors all reflecting the same beam Now I’m at this crossroad The light will be my guide I can see you now like a million suns alight As they pierce the darkest night When all hope is gone and lost... I can see you now like a million suns alight As they pierce the darkest night When all hope is gone and lost When all hope is gone and lost, I know... I know...

A battle between two different worlds Different lives but we share the same sky I still wonder why (I still wonder why) Innocent souls have been torn apart The guilty ones are far away by now I still wonder how (I still wonder how) We have been in darker places The angels will protect us We know evil has many faces We won’t be fooled anymore Beneath the sky far from the stars We’re ready to fight for what is ours There have been so many wars The time has come when we will rise Too many years of pain have past We will reclaim our throne at last The days of darkness will end now The time has come when we will rise again! We are still alive and still have hope Gather ones more this black winter night Prepare for one last fight (prepare for one last fight) Ignore the cold ignore the pain Don’t listen to the sound of the enemies closing in This time they won’t win, no! We have been in darker places The angels will protect us We know evil has many faces We won’t be fooled anymore Beneath the sky far from the stars We’re ready to fight for what is ours There have been so many wars The time has come when we will rise Too many years of pain have past We will reclaim our throne at last The days of darkness will end now The time has come when we will rise again Oh, we will rise again We have been in darker places The angels will protect us We know evil, evil has many faces But we won’t be fooled, no we won’t be fooled again Beneath the sky far from the stars We’re ready to fight for what is ours There have been so many wars The time has come when we will rise Too many years of pain have past We will reclaim our throne at last The days of darkness will end now The time has come when we will rise again We will rise again

The creature spoke to me Said, the moment you see me That’s when I, I will leave you be All that I’d become The restless soul, had now Disappeared, in tranquility Oh... The watcher on the stairs The threshold of despair Was the one, who would talk to me All my life I’ve waited, and anticipated Hoping I’d someday awake Here I stand, and I’m watching and I’m waiting In your hands, and my journey can’t be over yet My last stand, my life in your hands Can’t turn back no more No more So who are you I see? The angel watching me From above, as I go to sleep? All my life I’ve waited, and anticipated Hoping someday you’d arrive Here I stand, and I’m watching and I’m waiting In your hands, and my journey can’t be over yet My last stand, my life in your hands Can’t turn back no more No more All my life I’ve waited, and anticipated Hoping someday you’d arrive All the knowledge you have That I’m dying to have I am ready with an open mind Here I stand, and I’m watching and I’m waiting In your hands, and my journey can’t be over yet My last stand, my life in your hands Can’t turn back no more, no more My last stand, my life in your hands Can’t turn back no more, no more, no!

I remember when, chasing shadows ends As a child I was never like this Many times I’ve tried, asking myself why Why I still go on chasing this dream What am I to do? All I know is what I feel is true It’s a challenge for life Every day feels like night I, I will become, and when I’ve won When I have conquered time and space I will live on and you will remember what I’ve done In another time, maybe somehow I Would have gotten another chance If their minds could change Somehow rearranged With eyes opened they’d see my deeds What am I to do? All I know is what I feel is true It’s a challenge for life Every day feels like night I, I will become, and when I’ve won When I have conquered time and space I will live on and you will remember what I’ve done I, I will become, and when I’ve won When I have conquered time and space I will live on and you will remember what I’ve done Written in stone, I will live on You will remember what I’ve done I, I will become, and when I’ve won In time I’ll live forever on

I know I’m not here alone I can hear them sigh and moan Though it’s dark here There’s a presence I can feel... As the world spins round once more Closing one more opened door I find comfort in the words she used to say So now I’m on my way... I, I have made my point for you to see Still, all the borders seem so closed to me I, I will try once more ‘cause I’m on the right way you see Wait, I’ll be waiting for eternity, I will I’ll be waiting, waiting for eternity Maybe we can work this out There’s no need to scream and shout I am standing here so hungry and so cold One by one we fell apart Though united in our hearts Now I know that I have taken it too far Breaking through the stars again I, I have made my point for you to see Still, all the borders seem so closed to me I, I will try once more ‘cause I’m on the right way you see Wait, I’ll be waiting for eternity, I will I, I have made my point for you to see Still, all the borders seem so closed to me I, I will try once more ‘cause I’m on the right way you see Wait, I’ll be waiting for eternity I, I have made my point for you to see Still, all the borders seem so closed to me I, I will try once more ‘cause I’m on the right way you see Wait, I’ll be waiting for eternity, I will, I will, I’ll be waiting I’ll be waiting for eternity

I will wake up here alone As the tide it will turn As the silence will grow Maybe someone just like me Could be there by your side When your world turns too slow, yeah, yeah If I fail, if I should fall Would you stand by my side Or just watch my demise? Will you listen to my voice As I speak from the heart As I open your eyes? Forever and a day All you can give me is your pain All the emotions that you’re feeling You can see clearly from now on You’re begging me to stay We’ll live forever and a day If you’ll accept all that I offer You’ll live forever and a day... Hey, you’ll live forever... As the moments pass us by As we lose all control of this thing we call life We will try to re-create all the moments of joy All the moments of hate You’re still tied up in chains All the fears that you have, all the fears you create In this darkened room of mine You will try to let go but you left me inside Forever and a day All you can give me is your pain All the emotions that you’re feeling You can see clearly from now on You’re begging me to stay We’ll live forever and a day If you’ll accept all that I offer You’ll live forever and a day... What am I to say? All you can give me is your pain Your eyes are screaming through your silence Your eyes are begging me to stay Forever and a day All you can give me is your pain All the emotions that you’re feeling You can see clearly from now on You’re begging me to stay We’ll live forever and a day If you’ll accept all that I offer You’ll live forever and a day... Forever and a day Forever and a day
