In the dark 03:30
All seems fine though I'm feeling scared The velvet silence and pouring rain Mysterious shadows reach my heart The whispers of phantoms echo in the dark I'm falling apart Into the night I feel so alone, chills go down my spine The hands try to get me, fear reigns in my mind I'm losing my senses and can't even breathe I struggle to tell the truth from the dream Too many nightmares and cold sleepless nights The slave in your head refuses to fight You're damned and forsaken, too weak to get out The swamp of your horror is eating you up You're finally defeated, there's no turning back Too many nightmares and cold sleepless nights Out of your body comes in the dark

Animal 04:44
I hear it’s calling me Pulling me in the dark I can’t escape this no Keeps me awake at night Killing the flame within me I live in twilight zone Nobody knows my name Nobody feels the pain I’m fighting with at night Full moon is in the sky Seduces me and wakes The hunger in my vains The hunger in my vains I can’t control no more No time, no fear, no life I can’t control myself No time, no fear, no life This torture never ends Immortal life I live This is my destiny Let me unleash this force I need to break the course Save me from endless doom Should I stay in a cage Captured deep underground Suffering from loneliness Hunted like an animal There’s no place to run There’s no time to waste It’s too late too late I can’t control no more No time, no fear, no life I can’t control myself No time, no fear, no life

The Queen 05:05
When she approaches no one dares to breathe The golden robe, black-painted eyes Her graceful moves intimidate her serfs Nobody objects the Queen of the Nile A nod of finger and they're kneeling down But people's riot slowly grows It doesn't matter if she wears a crown She reigns dominions, not their souls! I am the one who gives you protection Just obey me and you will be fine You mean no more than a pile of sand With one my wish I can make you decline... You don't need to worry, just tune to my voice All I demand is to follow my rules But you still lick my boots by your own choice Hail the Queen, bow down! Just follow my orders and you'll be okay Don't even try to think on your own Otherwise you all will be slain... Hail the Queen, bow down! Hail the Queen, bow down! I wash my hands in your blood Your fear and pain belong to me I'm your defender and I am your god Your destiny is carved in stone, no trial, no judgment Your time will come with no trial, no judgment
4.
Reborn 04:08
Fed up struggling to break free I am drowning in the sea The bottom is beyond my tired feet Silent voices reach my head No one hears my screaming pledge I must face the painful darkness on my own Watch me now, out of the night I am reborn Don't try to hide, your anger leads me to the point of no return
5.
The dusk 05:14
Can't hear a sound, can't tell the colours, the cold flames leave only ashes The world of numbness is where I live in and wasted are all my chances I want to break free, feel sun on my face, but chill stormed into my senses The days of brave dreams and innocent sighs, they have been gone forever... Save me, don't let me fall, the dusk closes around me Just hear my voice wherever you are From the depths of madness I fight to wake up, but conscience still refuses to start over The vivid pictures of your fragility couldn't have ever been closer I want to break free, feel sun on my face, but chill stormed into my senses The days of brave dreams and innocent sighs, they have been gone forever...

Endless road 03:21
Driving fast, misty shades, it's afterglow Miles away from you, I feel so alone and cold Blurry views, the smudgy world outside Your face in my mind is all I've got (it's bound to last...) Save me, you are the reason Your touch starts to fade in my weary head Feels like my journey is endless Pouring rain lifts your voice, it's deja vu Sudden crash, bright lights at my face I am back on the road to you
7.
Do you remember that day When you saw the world Just the way it is Sad and without hope Suddenly you just woke up Couldn't sleep no more Though you heard somebody say That's the way it goes How many times You've been seen as someone foul? How many times You've been trying to make things right Now is the time To forget about those days Now is the time Show them all your inner grace It is really meaningless Someone else wants to decide What you want and what you need About all your dreams at night There's no need to be docile You don't have to live like that Don't believe in all they say Try to live your life at last
8.
The Head II 04:11
Sun in the sky, stars far above Cold wind brings the heat Whispering sand, jasmin scent Falling insane I try to hide from phony friends Bright smiles mirror frowns (albo anger) Lonely steps in the crowd I'm falling down How can I tell the truth from fiction? (albo fable) Reflections penetrate my mnd Mirages start to take me over Is it my head, am I alive?

Once again fear and pain stab your heart Hopelessness and empty days have left a mark Tired hands and headache define your mood, You just close your eyes, believe in lies, but there’s still a chance, your very chance Can’t help falling deeper into the numbness and decay, Controlled by delusions, you’re feeling to fade away Still recall what was wrong, rewind the film You rule a maze of empty hands, the lights go dim You wish you could stop thinking, cut off your mind Get your strength just one more time, stand up and fight, you’ll make it right! Can’t help falling deeper into the numbness and decay, Controlled by delusions you’re doing the best you can Yet your sun gave up to shine, your shadow slipped away Happiness and innocence have gone astray Now’s the time to make your mind, you will not fail Don’t need to fight, stand in the light, Let the wounds be healed, life’s becoming real. Open up your heart and Let your senses guide you Strive to win a battle against the numbness and decay, Confront your demons, call for a better day. Strive to win a battle against the numbness and decay, Confront your demons, call for a better day.
10.
Time runs out, your aim is far away Your chance is getting thinner, it's never or today Same old hang-ups distract you from the path you need to understand your life is in your hands Don't look back, stop wasting time on woes Race has started, the counting has begun You're on your own and this is not a game Your high spirit will never be the same Brave enough to dream about escape Still you are scared to death to deal with steps you take Desperate to make up for time you've lost You carve for buying more, no matter what it costs
11.
Fear 03:52
Fear, staying with you forever Twisting in, getting better Deep inside your soul. Try not to fail, but it's stronger You can't see any longer The brave, confident man. Severe pain, shows up again whenever you want to start and live. Get ready, the blood boils in your veins Fight back this mad, hard to stand dismay. Fate played a joke, bent your head down crushed you down and made you bowed Didn't give a chance But fight, battle harder and harder Bring back all living forces, Get a grip, scream aloud. An amazing impulse pushes you through There’s a key inside your mind, Open your hearth, you’re free! But now keep the faith, wake your feelings Be real a man, stop fleeting like a leaf in the wind. Bear with this fear, you can tame it, control and embrace it Welcome back to the game.
