[Instrumental]
				

I am all you ever wanted
I'm a new dimension
Immortality perfected, phantomized
Expansion of life
Generations Arrive
Finding every deviation
Just to keep the future alive

Under a phantom divine
Touched by the light
In ambrosial grace
No applause for the old pantomime
In the shadows of our dreams
A phantom divine

I'm the face of the selected
I'm your chain reaction
I'm mortally rejected
I am the empire
Connecting the minds
And I'll die just to keep you alive

Under a phantom divine
Touched by the light
In ambrosial grace
No applause for the old pantomime
In the shadows of our dreams
A phantom divine

Under a phantom divine
Touched by the light
In ambrosial grace
No applause for the old pantomime
In the shadows of our dreams
A phantom divine

There is still hope for you
I am the empire
All that you see is true
I am the empire
There is still hope for us
Under a phantom divine

Under a phantom divine
Touched by the light
In ambrosial grace
No applause for the old pantomime
Psycomosis of our dreams
A phantom divine

Under the phantom divine
Touched by the light
In ambrosial grace
No applause for the old pantomime
In the shadows of our dreams
A phantom divine

I am the empire
I am the empire
I am the empire
I am the empire
				

When a new day reaches dawn
I feel it's worth the wait
But I tumble and I fall
When up against my fate

When the barricades come down
I build them up again
When I'm just about to drown
I still don't know the end

[CHORUS:]
Sometimes I tremble
Like a little child
That faces morning
With a broken smile
Sometimes I crumble
When the shades unfurl
Sometimes I feel that
I could rule the world

[Solo]

When the morning comes alive
Release your love brigade
At the end of day it's night
To suck it up with hate

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

(that faces morning
With a broken smile
Sometimes I crumble
When the shades unfurl
Sometimes I feel that
I could rule the world)
				

When the darkness brings the cold
To draw me under
I am caught between
The chapters of a dream
Something is reaching out and
My entire world is crumbling
And it whispers that I am
The chosen one...
Can you hear me...?

When the night begins to fall
I watch the shadows growing tall
Feeding my insomnia
Like a fly on the wall

I’m asleep but wide awake
A nightmare on repeat
In the haze I sense
The purpose of my soul
We are all born to leave a
Scar deep in the hearts of many
But can I really trust that I’m
The chosen one
Can you hear me...?

When the night begins to fall
I watch the shadows growing tall
Feeding my insomnia
Like a fly on the wall
When the night begins to fall
I hear a thousand voices call
Chasing my insanity
Like a fly on the wall

My wide eyed confidence
Still echoes in mind
A bright white prophecy
Protector of the light

When the night begins to fall
I watch the shadows growing tall
Feeding my insomnia
Like a fly on the wall
When the night begins to fall
I hear a thousand voices call
Chasing my insanity
Like a fly on the wall
				

War, war, war, war, war, war, war...
On a silent shore
I spoke to God
The sun is down
Assemble the great pandemonium
War

One more down by the brook of Babylon
One more down in accordance with my fate
One long drift across the lake of Avalon
One more trip that I must create

And my eyes sweep a shore
that was always there
A blood red line
Through the sonisphere
I can't resolve where it's coming from
I sense it's the great pandemonium

One more, Just one more
Just one, Just one more day
One more day by the pits of hell
Just one more when even yesterday was too late
One more thought that i have to sow
One last trick that you can't debate

War

On a silent shore
I confronted fear
I spoke to God
But he wasn't there
The sun is down
And the war begun
Assemble the great pandemonium

[Growls:]
Break down
Got to break down
Break down

And my eyes sweep a shore
That was always there
A blood red line
Through the sonisphere
I can't resolve where it's coming from
I sense it's the great pandemonium

On a silent shore
I confronted fear
I spoke to God
But he wasn't there
The sun is down
And the war begun
Assemble the great pandemonium

Just one, Just one, Just one more day
Just one, Just one, Just one more day
Just one, Just one more
WAR
				

Rules without exceptions last eternally
Every move you make creates your destiny
I've come to soak my sorrow in halo black
As black as the seal on my soul

Cause when the lights are down
There's no more to say
Love is the real pain
An internal revolution in our minds
And when the lights are down
You're so far away
Tell me your real name
In the silence of the darkness we unite

(Rules without exceptions last eternally
Every move you make creates your destiny)
What can protect me from the past
And all the things that I have done
She told me and then she was gone

But when the lights are down
There's no more to say
Deep in the shadows
Where the last of my delusions made a stand
Cause when the lights are down
She'll take me away
Tell me her real name
And in death we'll live the love we never had

Come all ye faithful beneath the moon
Into the void as one
Marching on
				

Give me a sign
Sing the words of innocence
And broken pride
Make my conclusions fail

Send me a sign
Hear this broken melody
'Cause each night i die
In hell

[CHORUS:]
My god has shown his sympathy
For all the spirits lost
I'll pray for salvation
And peace for ages
Standing in the summer breeze
Inhaling life again
A new day has come
A chance to renew[?]
Forget and forgive

Somehow I wasted all
They sealed my voice and wisdom
But my soul was born
On the battleground

Justice and blood
Long awaited fix of me
And tonight you die
In hell

[CHORUS]

I bind my eyes
Inside my mind
We're bound together
This is my confession
So may your enemy
Alone in my religion
Release my heart
Unfold my tongue

Save a place for me in heaven
We'll meet another day
I found forgiveness
And the meaning of it all
My fear is gone
Gone

[CHORUS]
Forget and forgive
				

Hear my promise of blistering light
Sowing a rose of obsidian
My dear I promise
Death comes to all
In a heartbeat only silence
Let's play with the fire that runs in our veins
Trust in the might of a miracle
Now winter has come and I'll stand in the snow
I don't feel the cold
And it's all that I will ever need to believe

One day I know we will meet again
In the shade of a life to die for
Watching the world through the eyes of a child in Elysium
Will I know you then?
(Will I know you then?)

Now bring down your fortress and swallow your pride
Don't break in your moments of ignorance
Existence will capture a spark of life
Just a fragment, but it's all that I will ever need to revive

One day I know we will meet again
In the shade of a life to die for
Watching the world through the eyes of a child in Elysium
Will I find you there in that darkness
Of the shadow that comes over all?
Dear friend will I know you then?
Will I know you then at all?

One day we'll meet
(One day we will meet in the shade of a life)
In the shade of a life to die for
(Watching the world)
Watching the world through the eyes of a child
Will I know you then?

One day I know we will meet again
In the shade of a life to die for
Watching the world through the eyes of a child in Elysium
Will I know you then?
Will I know you then?
				

In the ruins of madness
A ghost of a chance
There is new hope reborn in every tragedy
And the world I see bares
A mystery waiting to be revealed

And don’t you know that
Every cloud has a silver lining

You may call me a dreamer
Call me a fool
Just a blue eyed believer in you

In the age of confusion
Tears and despair
Let me sell you a dream of prosperity
In this great illusion
Our humble intentions are well concealed

'Cause don’t you know that
Every cloud has a silver lining

You may call me a dreamer
Call me a fool
Just a blue eyed believer in you
But I’ll die for that someone
In the blink of an eye
So tell me... please tell me
Just what kind of fool am I...

When I drown in my fears
In the darkness of sorrow
There’s a promise of grace
Under silver grey skies
And I’m drying my tears
In the blaze of the sunlight
A reviere sealed with a kiss

You may call me a dreamer
Call me a fool
Just a blue eyed believer in you
But I’ll die for that someone
In the blink of an eye
So tell me... please tell me
Just what kind of fool am I...

You may call me a dreamer
Call me a fool
Just a blue eyed believer in you
But I’ll die for that someone
In the blink of an eye
So tell me... please tell me
Just what kind of fool am I...
What kind of fool am I....?
				

Silent tears in a sea of sorrow
If only God would talk to me
And promise me tomorrow

I'm drowning in myself as I
Am facing imperfection
But the pain makes me feel
I am still alive

In Ravenlight you came to me
From silence rose a symphony
Of coming winters white

Paralysed
Caught in desperation
Endless nights revisiting
Internal conversations

Finally I made my peace 
With self intoxication
So I bleed just to know
I am not alone

In Ravenlight you came to me
From silence rose a symphony
Of coming winters white

May light embrace the darkest hour
Let it shine to orchestrate the shadows of the night

In Ravenlight you came to me
From silence rose a symphony
Of coming winters white

I love the way you sing to me
From silence to a soaring symphony
My rose in winter white
				

Tell me do you remember
The games and the laughter
Far from the choices we’d have to make
A kiss on the lips
Turned the toad to a prince
And the end was a lifetime away

I pour myself onto this page
I am writing a swan song for ages
I will leave it behind
And just maybe you will
Remember me...

It’s the end of an innocent era
The reality we know will be lost
We are building a bridge
Between heaven and hell
To return again
And why must a hero die young
Not to be gone and forgotten
So I pray for the broken
This is not the end of innocence

Now it’s me and my knife
And the will is my temple
Numb from the choices I have to make
Slowly we all took a bite of the apple
And laughter’s a lifetime away
Remember me...

I pour myself onto this page
I am writing a swan song for ages
I will leave it behind
And just maybe you will
Remember me...

It’s the end of an innocent era
The reality we know will be lost
We are building a bridge
Between heaven and hell
To return again
And why must a hero die young
Not to be gone and forgotten
So I pray for the broken
This is not the end of innocence

Of innocence...
Where do we go from here...?

It’s the end of an innocent era
The reality we know will be lost
We are building a bridge
Between heaven and hell
To return again
And why must a hero die young
Not to be gone and forgotten
So I pray for the broken
This is not the end of innocence
				

ASPIRAT PRIMO FORTUNA LABORI
ME DUCE TUTUS ERIS
VOX POPULI VOX DEI
AD MAIOREM DEI GLORIAM...
AD INFINITUM

[English translation:]

[The fortune is smiling at our first effort,
let me lead you and you will be safe,
the voice of people, voice of god
for bigger glory of the god
to the infinity.]

You know just who I am
Don't be so distant
Cause when you're lost
I am solely there to share your grief

Wailing for your sorrow
Is only my way to comfort you
Reminders of innocent youth
Waiting for morrow you're lonely
I name your solitude
I speaketh the truth

Now tell me all about your pain
Down to the detail
Don't say it's love
Your fragile heart feeds my contempt

Wailing for your sorrow
Is only my way to comfort you
Reminders of innocent youth
Waiting for morrow you're lonely
I name your solitude
I speaketh the truth

Chase the heathen call
We belong... you and I
Unison in all you deny

I am the thorn in your side
That seeks accomplishment
Reminding the mortal of death
I am the spore of your pride
An angel heaven sent
The master of all
I am the urge of the flesh
				

Give me a sign
Sing the words of innocence and broken pride
Make my conclusions fail
Send me a sign
Heal this broken melody
'Cause each day
A dying Hell
				

A passing life each day, a carving on the wall
It's like a night without awakening
The truth is lost and maybe never to be found
Like the shadows of my pantomime

When all the world is gathered for the final feast
Will there be someone to believe in me?
Voices echoing in my distorted mind
Is this for real or just a dream?
(Am I losing my mind? I am not afraid, my dear)

[Chorus:]
Sing for me angel of afterlife calming me down
Chaos inside my nebula
And make the wrong turn to right in a celestial light
Forgive my sacrimony

Tell me what they say that I'm supposed to know
Tell me every little detail
Make truth appear for me as distant memories
Like pictures on a silver screen

It all becomes clear
The truth will appear
Forever a debt for you and me

[Chorus]

And now leave me alone
Erase my memory
Don't want to hear, don't want to see
Don't want to think about the lie that follows me

All becomes clear
But no one will hear my testimony 

I am your angel of afterlife calming you down
Silence inside your nebula
And when the wrong turns to right in a celestial light
I'll heed your testimony

[Chorus]

(Ring around a rosie,
A pocketful of posies,
Ashes, ashes
We all fall down)
				

Say my name
No beautifying filters
I'm craving that honest pain
These perfect lines
Are always out of place
Only you and I were born to break the chain

Caught in the framework 
Dying to belong
Escape the wasteland
Don't forget who you are

Amnesiac
Don't let the world revolve around you
Don't wait another day
To re-erase your memory
Amnesiac
Don't let the dream dissolve without you
The more you know
The more they hold you back
Amnesiac

Mortal peace
Pushing through a needle
Observing your every move
A thousand lies
To avoid the question why
Cuz the more you know
The more they hold you back

Caught in the framework 
Dying to belong
Escape the wasteland
Don't forget who you are

Amnesiac
Don't let the world revolve around you
Don't wait another day
To re-erase your memory
Amnesiac
Don't let the dream dissolve without you
The more you know
The more they hold you back
Amnesiac

No beautifying filters
Beyond the perfect lines
This effortless intrusion
Stop, erase, rewind
				

[Instrumental]
				

I am your god
Tell me what’s on your mind
My demons are haunting me
Eating me alive
I fear the unknown
The darkness before me
Will we ever start anew
Wait and you will see...

Here’s to the fall
The fall of us all
Are we nothing but leaves in the wind?
Here’s to the fall
Here’s to the darkness to come for us all
Turning day into night

When I’m weak in my faith
Will you still believe in me?
My cynical imagery
Feeds my disbelief
And when I’m lost in the dark
Will you still save me?
God why won’t you answer me...
What is left to see?

Here’s to the fall
The fall of us all
Are we nothing but leaves in the wind?
Here’s to the fall
Here’s to the darkness to come for us all
Turning day into night

Help me to see
Through your masquerade like
Perfect disguise
Open my eyes
Help me to see
Here’s to the coming fall...

Here’s to the fall
The fall of us all
Are we nothing but leaves in the wind?
Here’s to the fall
Here’s to the darkness to come for us all
Turning day into night
May our souls survive...
				

there's a pain within
that I can't define
there's an empty space
where your love used to shine
from the night we met
till the day you died
do you think I wished
do you still believe I tried
all too soon we were divided
and life had just begun

will you revive
from the chaos in my mind
where we still are bound together
will you be there
waiting by the gates of dawn
when I close my eyes forever

I belong to you
you belong to me
it's the way things are
always meant to be

like the morning star
and the rising sun

you convey my life
and forgive me what I've done

all too soon we were divided
into darkness and light

will you revive
from the chaos in my mind
where we still are bound together
will you be there
waiting by the gates of dawn
when I close my eyes forever

save me
reverse how I'm thinking of you
every breath I take
brings me closer
closer to forever, to you
I'm waiting for the day that I'm gone
				

We teach them to pretend
Not to break the line
To always look away
And never ask why

We sit beside the cradle
We tell them to be brave
But when the warning sounds
It echoes to the grave

We keep blindly moving
Along the same old path
No common sense
Would guide us back to life

Now look at us
The pinnacle conception
How we assumed
These walls would never fall

Sleep
Farewell forever child
Farewell

We are the last to walk the earth
And watch the passing ages slowly sail
How it burns to embrace
That below the lilac skies
Eternity is just a breath away

In lockstep to damnation
To our dying breath
Every reckless footprint
Leaves the smell of death

On the wilting meadows
We let them out to play
We said - No need to worry
Now they never may

Sleep
Farewell forever

We are the last to walk the earth
And watch the passing ages slowly sail
How it burns to embrace
That below the lilac skies
Eternity is just a breath away
				

Would you pray if said you were dying
Would you be a little stronger
Or fall down on your knees
Would you stay with me
If you knew that I was lying
Would you walk away
Or turn the other cheek

I tremble where I stand
My wish is your command
The nature of a truly desperate heart
Give me something real
That I can truly feel
Liar liar on the wall

Whisper whisper in the dark
Tell me what you see
Poisoned by your fly infested poetry
Liar liar on the wall
Give the world to me
A wasteland or a monarchy
Liar liar
Tell me what you see...

Now I’m here and my pain is my companion
Now I know it wasn’t meant to heal... the cut
Is way too deep
No more wasted years of sacrificial bleeding
I’m the master of the war inside me

But still... I tremble where I stand
My wish is your command
The yearning of an undiscovered soul
Give me something real
So that I can truly feel
Liar liar on the wall

Whisper whisper in the dark
Tell me what you see
Poisoned by your fly infested poetry
Liar liar on the wall
Give the world to me
A wasteland or a Monarchy
Liar liar...
Tell me what you see...

I shine when the sun is down
And carry this heavy crown
I won’t compromise
Release me
What we’re looking for
Liar liar on the wall

Mirror mirror in the dark
Tell us what we are looking for
Make us see the truth
Liar liar on the wall

Whisper whisper in the dark
Tell me what you see
Poisoned by your fly infested poetry
Liar liar on the wall
Give the world to me
A wasteland or a monarchy
Liar liar...
Tell me what you see...
