Jillian

Jillian

I've been dreaming for so long,
to find a meaning to understand.
The secret of life,
why am I here to try again?

Will I always, will you always
see the truth when it stares you in the face?
Will I ever, will I never free myself
by breaking these chains?

Chorus:
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul.
I'd turn it back, it's my fault.
Your destiny is forlorn,
have to live till it's undone.
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul.
I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way.

I've been living for so long,
many seasons have past me by.
I've seen kingdoms through ages
rise and fall, I've seen it all.

I've seen the horror, I've seen the wonders
happening just in front of my eyes.
Will I ever, will I never free myself by making it right?

Repeat chorus

Jillian our dream ended long ago.
All our stories and all our glory I held so dear.
We won't be together
for ever and ever, no more tears.
I'll always be here until the end.

(Jillian, no more tears...
Jillian, no more tears...)

Repeat Chorus

Our Solemn Hour

Our Solemn Hour

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
(santus, espiritus...)

In my darkest hours
I could not foresee
That the time could turn so fast to this degree
Can't believe my eyes
How can you be so blind
Is the heart of stone nowhere but fear inside
Time keeps on slipping away
And we haven't learned
So in the end they won't have free sky

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony

Aren't they themselves to blame
The misery, the pain
That I will let go
Allow to let it grow
If we can't restrain
The beast which dwells inside
It will find its way somehow, somewhere in time

Will we remember all of the suffering
Cause if we may heal the fear in vain

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony

Santus, espiritus
Santus, espiritus

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony
Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony

Aquarius

Aquarius

I hear your whispers
Break the silence
And it calms me down
Your taste on my lips
Your salty kisses

They say I'm seeking up the danger
That one day you won't let me go
(I'll drown, you'll take me down)

[Chorus:]
I need you Aquarius
Enchanted I will have to stay.
I feel you Aquarius
'Cause you don't see, set me free
You call to me Aquarius
(You call to me, you set me free)

I relinquish
To your powers
From your grasp
I just can't hide

I missed the danger
I had to conquer
You made me feel alive

They say I have to be aware
That one day you won't let me go
Take me down

[Chorus]

I long for you Aquarius
I need to be with you again
I fear you, Aquarius
My destiny 'till the end

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

Forsaken

Forsaken

Now the day has come.
We are forsaken this time.

We lived our lives in our paradise,
As gods we shaped the world around.
No borderlines we'd stay behind,
Though balance is something fragile.

While we thought we were gaining,
We'd turn back the tide, it still slips away.
Our time has run out, our future has died,
There's no more escape.

Now the day has come,
We are forsaken,
There's no time anymore.
Life will pass us by,
We are forsaken,
We're the last of our kind.

The sacrifice was much too high,
Our greed just made us all go blind.
We tried to hide what we feared inside.
Today is the end of tomorrow.

As the sea started rising,
The land that we conquered just washed away.
Although we all have tried to turn back the tide,
It was all in vain.

Now the day has come,
We are forsaken,
There's no time anymore.
Life will pass us by,we are forsaken,
Only ruins stay behind.

Now the day has come.
We are forsaken this time.

Now the day has come,
We are forsaken,
There's no time anymore.

Now the day has come.
The day has come.
The day has come.

It's The Fear

It's The Fear

It Waits for the day, I will let it out
To Give it a reason, to give it its might

I fear who I am becoming,
I feel that I am losing the struggle within
I can no longer restrain it,
My strength, it is fading
I have to give in

It's the fear,
The fear of the dark
Its growing inside of me
They won, they will come to life
Have to save,
Save my beloved,
There is no escape
Because my fate is horror and doom

Hold down your head now,
Just let me pass by
Don't feed my fear,
If you don't want it out

I fear who I am becoming,
I feel that I'm losing all beauty within
I can no longer restrain it,
My strength, it is fading
I have to give in

and ever since that day,
Infected with it's rage
But it ends today

Pale

Pale

The world seems not the same
Though I know nothing has changed
It's all my state of mind
I can't leave it all behind
I have to stand up to be stronger

[Chorus:]
I have to try
To break free
From the thoughts in my mind
Use the time that I have
I can say goodbye
Have to make it right
Have to fight
'Cause I know in the end it's worthwhile
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away
It will be all right

I know
I should realize
Time is precious
It is worthwhile
Despite how I feel inside
Have to trust it'll be alright
Have to stand up to be stronger

[Chorus]

Oh, this night is too long
Have no strength to go on
No more pain I'm floating away

Through the mist I see the face
Of an angel, calls my name
I remember you're the reason I have to stay

[Chorus]

 

[GKZ]

See Who I Am

See Who I Am

Is it true what they say?
Are we too blind to find a way?
Fear of the unknown
Clouds our hearts today.

Come into my world,
See through my eyes.
Try to understand,
Don't want to lose what we have.

We've been dreaming
But who can deny?
It's the best way of living
Between the truth and the lies.

[Chorus:]
See who I am,
Break through the surface.
Reach for my hand,
Let's show them that we can
Free our minds and find a way.
The world is in our hands,
This is not the end.

Fear is withering the soul
At the point of no return.
We must be the change we wish to see.

I'll come into your world,
See through your eyes.
I'll try to understand,
Before we lose what we have.

We just can't stop believing
Because we have to try.
We can rise above their truth and their lies.

[Chorus x2]
See who I am,
Break through the surface.
Reach for my hand,
Let's show them that we can
Free our minds and find a way.
The world is in our hands.

This is not the end.

I hear their silence
Preaching my blame.
Will our strength remain
If their power reigns?

[Chorus x2]
See who I am,
Break through the surface.
Reach for my hand,
And show them that we can
Free our minds and find a way.
The world is in our hands.

This is not the end.

Somewhere

Somewhere

Lost in the darkness
Hoping for a sign
Instead there's only silence
Can't you hear my screams?

Never stop hoping
Need to know where you are
But one thing's for sure
You're always in my heart

[Chorus:]
I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying
Until my dying day
I just need to know
Whatever has happened
The truth will free my soul

Lost in the darkness
Tried to find your way home
I want to embrace you
And never let you go

Almost hope you're in heaven
So no one can hurt your soul
Living in agony
Cause I just do not know
Where you are

[Chorus]

Wherever you are
I won't stop searching
Whatever it takes me to know

[Chorus]

 

[GKZ]

All I Need

All I Need

I’m dying to catch my breath
Oh why don’t I ever learn?
I’ve lost all my trust,
though I’ve surely tried to turn it around

Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
when you hold me in your embrace

Don’t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don’t tear me down
You’ve opened the door now, don’t let it close

I’m here on the edge again
I wish I could let it go
I know that I’m only one step away
from turning it around

Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
when you hold me in your embrace

Don’t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe

Don’t tear it down, what’s left of me
Make my heart a better place

I tried many times but nothing was real
Make it fade away, don’t break me down
I want to believe that this is for real
Save me from my fear
Don’t tear me down

Don’t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Don’t tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place

Give me something I can believe
Don’t tear it down, what’s left of me
Make my heart a better place
Make my heart a better place

Final Destination

Final Destination

I escaped my final moment
But it’s turning back at me
On every corner I can feel it waiting
Just a moment, no awareness
I could easily slip away
And then I’ll be gone forever

I’m searching,
I’m fighting for a way to get through
To turn it away

It’s waiting, always trying
I feel the hands of fate, they’re suffocating
Tell me what’s the reason
Is it all inside my head
Can’t take it no more!

All around me I see danger
And it’s closing in on me
Every second I can hear it breathing
I can’t stand the fear inside me
Cause it’s leading me astray
And it will be my ending

I’m searching
I’m fighting for a way to get through
To turn it away

It’s waiting, always trying
I feel the hands of fate, they’re suffocating
Tell me what’s the reason
Is it all inside my head
Can’t take it no more!

But no one faced what's coming my way
And I will let my fear fade away
Whatever may be, I'll have to find out

It's waiting, always trying
Feel the hands of fate, they're suffocating
Tell me what's the reason
Is it all inside my head
Can't take it no more!
