The universe is going cold and so am I
What little sanity I had has slipped my mind

Hear these words
An ode for the damned

From the sorry second, we were born we’re born to die
The hook you swallowed pulls you to the other side

So, hear these words
An ode for the damned

Realize we are but dust
Realize we are but dust
Just dust on a speck of dust

In a godforsaken galaxy so far away
The watchmaker has left the scene and thrown away his work
And a chilling wind is bringing in the singularity
There will be nothing to remember and no one left to care

Realize we are but dust
Realize we are but dust
Just dust on a speck of dust
Just dust on a speck of dust

What’s this about?
The moon is out
She’s torturing my soul again
Her icy stare nails me to the floor
I’m bathing in her light

There is a door
Best left untouched
It’s best to keep it shut
Don’t peak inside
When the moon is on the rise
A stolen look can’t be unseen

But the secrets of the night
Remain inside a blind man’s eye
There are visions meant to be
Only for the blind to see

Stand eye to eye
That face again
Am I he or is he me?
I’m breaking through
To the other side
A broken mirror tells no lies

But the secrets of the night
Remain inside a blind man’s eye
There are visions meant to be
Only for the blind to see

Sometimes I dream
And the dream takes over me
Visions so clear
I could swear they were for real

What’s this about?
The moon is out
My succubus is here again
Her icy stare nails me to the floor
I’m burning in her light

But the secrets of the night
Remain inside a blind man’s eye
There are visions meant to be
Only for the blind to see

Secrets
Secrets

Gazing up to the Northern Star
The night is cold and the night is dark
And the moon

The moon is old and the moon is dead
Hanging there like a floating head

While we’re crawling like worms here on planet Earth
A funeral for the future was held, but no one came
What a shame

If we ever build the time machine
Could we ever make things right?
What do you think?

Where’s the great man in the sky?
Where has he gone, or did he hide?

While we’re crawling like worms here on planet Earth
You know, blind men see no signs, for what it’s worth

If we ever build the time machine
Could we ever make things right?
If we ever build the time machine
Would we ever make things right?

I think

A rocket launched into the unknown
Carrying our dreams
Passing by the Northern Star
With our childish fantasies
Godspeed to you!

Gazing up to another star
The night’s still cold and my mind is dark

While we’re crawling like worms here on planet Earth
A funeral for the future was held, it was beautiful

If we ever build the time machine
Could we ever make things right?
If we ever build the time machine
Would we ever make things right?

I think… not
What do you think?

I have been turning every stone
And digging deep into the dirt
Where no one goes I have explored
To find the purest core

In the sea of memories I’m immersed
Embryonic stages in reverse
Peeling off the layers of deceit
To find the truth beneath

A devil lives inside me
Touch my head and feel the burn
Evil lives inside
The sky is black within me
Night eternal every day
Evil lives inside

A devil lives inside me
And inside you there’s one as well
Evil lives inside
Evil lives inside
Evil lives and evil dies
Evil lives inside

Words fill the ether like arrows in the sky
But what do they mean to me in a sea of lies
Street zombies crossing paths
Hollow eyed consumers
Plastic bliss at their fingertips
Looking for their fix

I hear them calling, but

I, I seek the silence
Just leave me be
I need the silence

Words from a raging war
In a maelstrom of deception
They clamp on to my feet
Like led shoes in the deep
A muffled scream in an absinthe dream
Sliding slowly backwards
I’d give my arm for a slice of peace
Where silence reigns supreme

I can’t feel my soul anymore

So I, I seek the silence
Just leave me be
I need the silence

I, I seek the silence
Leave me be
I need the silence

Words stuck within my head
Screaming to get out
They fill my days with hate
And chaos on the rise

I can’t hear my thoughts anymore

That’s why, I seek the silence
Leave me be
I need the silence
Oh I, I seek the silence
Just leave me be
I need the silence
I seek the silence
I love the silence

When the darkness eats the twilight
And the road I walk disappear in the night

Have you seen?
Have you seen my shadow?
Have you seen?
Have you seen my shadow?

Look out!

In my quest for something real
I found a lost reality in a dream

Have you seen?
Have you seen my shadow?
For I’ve seem to have lost my shadow

In Shadowland
My Shadowland

Out of touch I wander like a ghost inside my mind
To myself an alien who’s looking for his kind

If you see me walk in twilight
See the shape of me disappear in the night

Have you seen?
Have you seen my shadow?
Come with me
You can be my shadow

In Shadowland
My Shadowland

Edward Mordrake
What's in the back of your head?
Edward Mordrake
Can it speak with the dead?
Edward, Edward...
Can you hear me?

Mr. Mordrake
Does it whisper in your ear?
Sinister Mordrake
Things that you don't like to hear

Edward, Edward
Can you hear me?

Edward Mordrake
Is it driving you insane?
Tell me, Mordrake
Do you share the same brain?

Edward, Edward
Can you tell me
Oh, Edward, Edward
Please tell me

Where does your devil twin begin and where do you end?
Or are you the same?
Will the voice be silent at the end of the rope?
In one leap of hope

Just one leap of hope

Edward Mordrake
You think you're all alone
But my dear Mordrake
We're more alike than you would know
Edward, my friend, I can hear it too, it’s driving me insane

Insane
Edward
Edward

Into the light I must go
Out from the darkness I know
Your eyes have seen through my soul
And into the future

Oh, Rasputin!
Rasputin!

I put my blind faith in you
I do what you tell me to do
The greater the sin we commit
The sweeter forgiveness

Oh, Rasputin!
Rasputin!

Ignorant fools cannot see
Secrets that you have revealed
A beacon you are in the dark
The nation must follow you

Oh, Rasputin!
Rasputin!

A living lie on repeat
Too many years of the same old pain
And believe me, I have seen
I've seen the enemy inside your eyes
Not another day in this jail

This is me looking for an exit sign
To find my way out
Returning to the nothingness from where we came
And find my way out

I can't remember yesterday
And I know tomorrow will be just the same
I have to watch my every step
Always make sure to cover my tracks
Not another day in this jail

This is me looking for an exit sign
To find my way out
Returning to the nothingness from where we came
To find my way out

My mind is made up, this isn't real
Watching the ground from my balcony
I shall unite with mother earth
Spreading my wings as I am falling free
Not another day in this jail

This is me looking for an exit sign
To find my way out
Returning to the nothingness from where we came
And find my way out

By my window I sit watching people go by
Observing while they go about their day
Sometimes I wait for a wave or a smile
Pretending that it might have been for me

I dial between the frequencies on my radio
For messages from another sphere
Hoping that someday they’ll come to take me home
But my breathing is the only thing I hear

So fasten your seatbelt
We’re in for a ride
Speeding away from the light

Into the black hole
To be crushed by the weight of the void
Into the black hole
Gravity compels me to venture into the black
Into the black

Just a stranger, merely a ghost in this town
I would love it if there was a place for me
But my compass is broken and my ticket is lost
Where I go it doesn’t matter anyway

Fasten your seatbelt
We’re in for a ride
Speeding away from the light

Into the black hole
Crushed by the weight of the void
Into the black hole
Gravity compels me to venture into the black
Into the black
Into the black
Into the black

No pain
No more sadness
The end of my troubles
Seems like a dream

So fasten your seatbelt
We’re in for a ride
Speeding away from the light

Into the black hole
Crushed by the weight of the void
Into the black hole
Gravity calling me home
Into the black hole
Gravity compels me to venture into the black
Into the black
Into the... black

To take a look into the future
This untamable beast
Is like to look into a wolf’s eye
Ages staring back at me

It’s tempting to sit and indulge in denial
But no one escapes their trial by fire

Memories flashing by
Of evil deeds done
Maybe my shadow is using me
To hide from the sun

It’s easier to see our brother’s imperfection
Than to aim the scrutiny at ones own reflection

When all your hiding places have been occupied
By your own demons
Will you run or hide?

The evil you shun may be closer to you than you think
Renew your perspective
The devil might be
Where you least expect him to be
If you care to see
If you care to see
If you dare to see

No ones escapes their trial by fire
No one escapes
Set yourself ablaze
The purgatory is inside you

‘Cause no ones escapes their trial by fire
No one escapes
Set yourself ablaze
The purgatory is inside you
To guide you
To purify you
Don’t be afraid
Look steady at the light
I’ll see you on the other side
