In this dark cell, in this moment of life and death On the bloody fields of war, in a forsaken desert or an empty street In a family's home, every place where love, hate, greed, belief let men look into the barrel of a gun You can take my life, but my vision lives eternally This is my legacy, now I will be forever I am one with my fate, now I will see destiny This is my legacy, now I will be forever I am one with my fate, now I will see destiny I give all of my self for all I love in this world It will be my last wish, my ultimate sacrifice I give all for you I see the white light so close, today, there I'll be going There are no questions no more, there's only knowing My last hour, I have nothing to regret, nothing left that I could give to you I have gone, taken everything with me, everything that I could hide from the pain that takes away my body Hold my hand wherever you are My end now is just a new life for you all This is my promise, my sacrifice My life was once just like yours, but then it happened All has changed in a minute, like a shot All the world, it was nothing like before I have run through the chaos in mind all my life, but I never knew what's lying deep inside of us all Hold my hand wherever you are My end now is just a new life for you all This is my promise, my sacrifice How hard they ever will hit my face or even break every bone No matter how long it takes for me, I will not fail How far I have to go for my hope, or have to step into the fire? No one can anymore hold me from falling down now Hold my hand, wherever you are now Please hold my hand, keep me from falling down My old life seems like centuries ago, I remember scenes from my childhood Playing Robin Hood and Braveheart, but how do we know what we do when the story is about us? Now I know, now I know Hold my hand wherever you are My end now is just a new life for you all This is my promise, my ultimate sacrifice I will live on, my will lives on Here, I stand firmly with my life in my hands Let the sword fall down Farewell to you, all stars above Goodbye to all the ones that I have loved I miss you so much, but it's okay I'll sleep well 'cause somewhere, you are safe This I know, when I take my last breath

I've been dreaming all those years, I've been sleeping for so long in a diamond sky of lonely worlds All your eyes stare up at me, as if I was wide awake And I only can live my own curse I will keep your dream, make it live for real, only just for a moment I will send a dying rose for you all to be close, to its scent that has never been All the colors to unfold, all the magic we behold in the life we share in fantasy I will keep your dream, make it live for real, only just for a moment Say these words again, don't leave me alone when my own dreams have finally died Keep my dreams now, I keep yours forever Save my hope now, I save yours forever Hold me, help me, carry me upon your wings to save my soul with your love I will keep your dream, make it live for real, only just for a moment Say these words again, don't leave me alone when my own dreams have finally died Keep my dreams now, I keep yours forever Save my hope now, I save yours forever Hold me, help me Will you be my dreamkeeper?

This is my last transmission, my final salutation I count down to ignition, one last time I'm rising The stars are all I think of, for me it's never enough Their cold bliss is my resource to find myself I'm yearning, I'm longing, I'm waiting to go back to where the skies will ever take me Down here in this prison, I'll be breaking Far from here, there is a place where I belong, I go home This great black nothing calls me, an echo of the voices from where I have been traveling In exile I'm living Infinite silence waiting for me with all its answers A lightless mirror blazing, oh, with truth so pure I'm yearning, I'm longing, I'm waiting to go back to where the skies will ever take me Down here in this prison, I'll be breaking Far from here, there is a place where I belong, I go home Oh, if you could see how, how small everything seems from here So trivial, so shallow, the meaningless drama so precious on Earth, seen from the timeless stardust I'm flying, I'm drifting, I'm dying, so please, let me go back to where the skies will ever take me Down here in this prison, I'll be breaking Far from here, there is a place where I belong, I'll be returning home Returning home, to the stars eternally

I was born on a snowy winter's day in a cradle of ice so cold I was taken away when I was just a child by the sign of the serpent's gold To the sun, to the oceans, to a land I have never discovered Now my hands have been chained to the wheel for so long I have seen all my fellows drown, but I cannot forget what they have done to me I am breaking my cage and run To the sun, to the oceans, to a land I have never discovered There I will go, there is my hope to find some peace someday The moon is rising higher, we use the dark of the night Invade the secret tower, get out of sight She is the queen of nowhere, she'll be the first and the last to reach beyond my burden Oh, our candle burns so fast You have taken my father and you have taken my mother You have poisoned the souls of the weak, but you are damned to die by the hands of your own seed Years they pass by while my search goes on for the ghost of the one that I loved For I've lost my love in the rage of my revenge, so this journey will never end To the sun, to the oceans, to a land I have never discovered There I will go, there is my hope To the seas, to the mountains, to the meadows I will never leave again There I lay down, there's my crown, and love always

This is goodbye Once, before ancient times, a circle of knights were sworn to the queen of magic arts An oath to usher her daughter to where she'd just tear them all apart Betrayer, promise breaker, beautiful liar, in your innocent, blue-eyed blindness Selfish princess, go be unbound, but you'll burn your wings and hit the ground See her beauty, so pure, she seems like the cure, to all been deluded by her light But behind her spell, we know her so well She spoils all for what we fight Betrayer, promise breaker, beautiful liar, in your innocent, blue-eyed blindness Selfish princess, go be unbound, but you'll burn your wings and hit the ground I only want to go where the wind leads me, and just pick the sweet fruits wherever I go So see me now, as I am going to spread my wings But it was us who gathered the feathers for you, it was our promise and you gave yours Remember: Your deeds make you what you are, not your intentions Don't dare to think we're the ones to be blamed, just to feel better in your own betrayal We have gone through Hell's fire, our fate in our hands We all claimed this story will not end when we heard you say you could have hit us even harder Betrayer, promise breaker, beautiful liar, in your innocent, blue-eyed blindness Selfish princess, go be unbound, but you'll burn your wings and hit the ground Go to burn your wings and hit the ground Go to Hell

Sometimes, I'm holding my breath and keep still when all the world's closing in for the kill I try to embrace all the treasures I have At times, though, I think I am losing my faith All I have forsaken while the time is flying I am watching all my lives passing by And I'll run this road till the end, while the world is turning around me I don't know wherever I will land, bound to the unforeseen I see the starting points fading behind me, all of the races have always been waiting All I longed for is gone, all the children unborn I can only let them live in my songs I run this road till the end, while the world is turning around me I don't know wherever I will land, bound to the unforeseen Where is the moment that I should caress, when it's only yet to come? Nothing is waiting for me, nothing Run this road till the end, while the world is turning around me I don't know when it's all over and gone So, please, let me have just one more chance I run this road till the end, while the world is turning around me I don't know wherever I will land, bound to the unforeseen, bound to the unforeseen

I belong to a world of twilight and regret Sing my song to the ones who never hear it The spell is cast, time is frozen for eternity I know it lasts only 'til the sun is rising Sinful is my heart, my darling, let me share with you Come with me to a place far away, come enter the world in the shadows All my scars are painted with the blood that I once spilled My old heart had to see it all to win my freedom Sinful is my soul, my darling, let me share with you Come with me to a place far away, come enter the world in the shadows See through my eyes and feel what I feel, come take my hand and just dare to believe Come with me to a place far away, come enter my world Come with me to a place far away, come enter the world in the shadows See through my eyes and feel what I feel, come take my hand and just dare to believe

Somewhere upon a normal day on a ancient forest way He revealed himself to me and commands, "Abandon your belief, I will request no more of thee Cast away your faith and follow me down Take off the maiden-like dress, your skin suits you best Be gone with your demure air" Hide or beseech, am I the relish in this written story Nowhere to redeem, nowhere to run The tale casts me into his arms, into this sinful pleasure to which I now yield Free me from my ordeal In the morning I awoke, I recalled the words he spoke, and could not withstand his final courtship Lead me deep into your woods, I'm your little riding hood Hear me plead and guide me to your wolf's lair Off with this maiden-like dress, my skin suits me best Dive into the crimson mare Hide or beseech, am I the relish in this written story Nowhere to redeem, nowhere to run The tale casts me into his arms, into this sinful pleasure to which I now yield Free me from my ordeal Oh, deep in his wake, I lay down to be reborn and cradled Let me die to only reveal the secrets of my core Hide or beseech, am I the relish in this written story Nowhere to redeem, nowhere to run The tale casts me into his arms into this sinful pleasure to which I now yield Release me, free me from this ordeal

I know that you feel like being a stranger, a yearning heart, a soul that has survived this darkness A soul like mine, endlessly craving for more, somewhere in a dream We are one in our Neverworld We are gone, say farewell to you all Looking at you, I can see beyond this prison that locks you in, hiding your true incarnation A radiant shine, a warmth that I have never felt like this before, and want to feel forever We are one in our Neverworld We are gone, say farewell to you all The closer we are coming now, the more it's getting real, real for you and me Together, we can take a piece of never Bring it back with us, and make this world our home It's all there in the beauty of your heart We are one in our Neverworld We are gone, say farewell to you all The closer we are coming now, the more it's getting real, real for you and me For you and me, you and me

Every day, I am facing a new way of chasing the dreams I am losing in constant defense The world keeps on turning, the beds are still burning in foolish unconsciousness and self pretense Take it away, take it away, free me Take it from me, take it from me now Falling astray, falling astray faster Only to see how deep in the shadows it's hiding for me, down there the demon is rising Coming to carry my soul down with him, down into the temple of hate All the ways that are leading into Hell's open ceiling are carrying names so familiar to me It's so hard to stay who I am when your knives rip my heart out and hit me again and again Take it away, take it away, free me Take it from me, take it from me now Falling astray, falling astray faster Only to see how deep in the shadows it's hiding for me, down there the demon is rising Coming to carry my soul down with him, down into the temple of hate Oh, please, help me Oh, let me be Take it away, take it away Take it from me, take it from me Falling astray, falling astray, but I will keep it under the surface of my smiling face No one can see what's behind this mask I am wearing all time so I can survive Deep in the shadows it's hiding for me, down there the demon is rising He's coming to carry my soul down with him, down into the blackness of the temple of hate

Speak to me one last time, smile at me once more I cannot bear this distance, our memories galore In lucid dreams, I'm dancing, my cries echo unheard Your soul now deaf to my every bitter word My muted love, may you rest forever Cradled to the sounds of this lullaby In our sweet atonement, we slumber secretly We'll never comprehend that we never should have been Oh, this true love story is buried in memories Let me crawl inside you to open your weary eyes Heal the wound that broke you, recover all goodbyes My muted love, when were we raided? Who dare leave us jaded and torn? In my sweet atonement, we slumber secretly We'll never comprehend that we never should have been Oh, this true love story is buried in memories In our sweet atonement, we slumber secretly We'll never comprehend that we never should have been Oh, this true love story is buried in memories And my voice was silenced the moment we started to dream
