01. I Will Never Let You Down

Wake up
Stand up for everything you want
Let's go, let's live
What are your dreams
What do you wish?

It's up to you
So open up your eyes
And see what could be
The world is there for us
For us

Forever
We will be together
To love
For life
Let all go
Let me lead
To be free

Let me be
Your eyes forever mine
Let me be
Your guide through this life

What is real
What is fake
You'll never know for sure
All the pain
All the lies
I'll take them away from you

It's up to you
So open up your eyes
And see what could be
The world is there for us
There for us

Let me be
Your eyes forever mine
Let me be
Your guide through this life

I will never let you down
Let you down

Forever
We will be together
To love
For life
Let all go
Let me lead
To be free

02. Let Go

When I remember the past sad grey days
When I surrender, I will never smile again
Look in my eyes, a killing glance

Love can hurt and that is no secret
But how much pain can I forget?

Everything, everything you let go
Everything, everything brings liberation
Everything, everything we let go
Everything, everything leads to salvation

The time we split I felt this anger
You were my blaze but pulled my anchor
Every cloud has a silver lining
And that's blessing in disguise

Everything, everything you let go
Everything, everything brings liberation
Everything, everything we let go
Everything, everything leads to salvation

When I remember the past sad grey days
The cold September when you said goodbye
Look in my eyes, a killing glance

Every end is a new beginning
I'm looking forward to rise from the dust

Everything, everything you let go
Everything, everything brings liberation
Everything, everything we let go
Everything, everything leads to salvation

03. Another Cold Day

With open arms, I am waiting
With open arms, I see the end
With open arms, I am dying
Dying a mournful death

The landscape wipes out my tears
It's greyness stings my eyes
Where the hell is the gloom?
What the fuck, I am so doomed!

Starlight from the sky
Lead my heart and tell me why
Starlight from the sky
Tell me why

With open arms, I am crying
With open arms, I'm going down
Wind blows my joy away
Help me out of these mournful days

Starlight from the sky
Lead my heart and tell me why
Starlight from the sky
Tell me why

Too many days
I had no faith
I wish I had
Someone to blame
Someone to blame

Starlight from the sky
Lead my heart and tell me why
Starlight from the sky
Tell me why
Why?

Break down

04. My Time Has Come

I fought my way through the darkest days

Out into the light
I was scared and I cried
But I believed in something more
You are guilty for

This darkness you gave me everyday
Everytime you pushed me away
The coldness you had shown me everyday
You'll never hurt me again

No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness
No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness

I was not willing to believe that's all

All the pain
All the tears
All the lies
There was a great spark in the dark
A shining mark

This darkness you gave me everyday
Everytime you pushed me away
The coldness you had shown me everyday
You'll never hurt me again

Your time is gone
My time has come
Your life is done

This darkness you gave me everyday
Everytime you pushed me away
The coldness you had shown me everyday
You'll never hurt me again

No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness
No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness

05. Life Is Too Short

Dead end and no way back
Walls came crashing down on me
Whatever I try, whatever I do
My mind will go insane

Change is the headline
And I am reborn
All the crying
All the mourning is gone

I woke up with a new view of life
I don't know what has happened to the past

Life is too short to think all through
Life is too short to waste it all

So listen to your heart
And help your dreams
To come true

Life is too short

Too many dreams kept in the dark
Too many dreams kept in the dark
Too many wishes are blown away
For nothing

A new time
A new chance
I am a rising star
I am back
I will fight
I will love again

I woke up with a new view of life
I don't know what has happened to the past

Life is too short to think all through
Life is too short to waste it all

Life is too short

06. Give Me A Reason

Let me remind you of the cold mountain skies
The time we felt this red hot fire inside
I'd like to picture it again
Your pretty face and blazing eyes
In front of these burning skies

So give me a reason
I just need a sign

I think I really love you
I think I'm supposed to fight

Please let us repeat this time
Let's save what we had
I'm afraid to lose my mind with you on my side
I don't know why I'm still here

So give me a reason
I just need a sign

I think I really love you
I think I'm supposed to fight

I need your promise or a kiss
Show me the way out of the abyss

Give me a reason

I think I really love you
I think I'm supposed to fight

07. Stop Running

Don't be afraid of me
I'll be there for you night and day
I'll show you things that make you laugh
I'll show you thinks that make you smile

Let me be your friend
Give me the chance to conclude

Let me erase this time
Cause when I look around, I see just pain
This awful time that makes you sick
This awful time that makes you cry

Let me be your friend
Give me the chance to conclude
What drives you insane

Don't run away
From your inner fears
I'll be there for you, forever, whatever you'll say
I'll be there for you, forever, in every way

So what's your answer now
Are we friends or should I leave you alone
I'll show you things that make you laugh
I'll show you thinks that make you smile

Let me be your friend
Give me the chance to conclude
What drives you insane

08. The Awakening

I buried my dreams out of my fear to fail
But this fear created a hope that woke me up

The awakening
The awakening
The awakening

09. I Believe...

I believe in my dreams
For that as long as I will breathe
I will never sacrifice myself
For you again

I won't be chained to you
My heart needs something new

I will give you
I believed in what I saw
In what I had done
I'll keep my eyes wide open
To satisfy myself more than once again

I won't be chained to you
My heart needs something new

I will give you nothing more
Nothing more

Can't you see how I feel?
Can't you see?

I won't be chained to you
My heart needs something new
I won't be chained to you
My heart needs something new

10. Rise And Fight

What do you expect from life
If you just watch and wait?
What do you expect from life?
You sit there in your rocking chair
Complaining and cursing about everything

It's up to you
It's up to us
To bring the change
To start the fight

For you, for us
I will rise before we die
For you, for us
I will fight to be satisfied

I will rise
I will fight

We are the world
We are the force
Together we can win the fight

We all see the news, we all feel the fear
But we do nothing against it
Wake up and rise for what you want
For what you wish, together we can break free

It's up to you
It's up to us
To bring the change
To start the fight

For you, for us
I will rise before we die
For you, for us
I will fight to be satisfied

I will rise

11. Nowhere To Run, No Place To Hide

No regrets

You caused me so much pain
I can still feel the wounds
You left on my tortured skin
I won't forget your chainsaw
And the games you played
Come on, little angel
Will you play my game?

I'm full of hate
And this hate is eternal
Are you sure you want this fight?

I'll fight with all my heart
There is no time to pray
No time to cry

I'll fight with all my hate
There's nowhere to run
No place to hide

You kept me in this dark hole
It was like living hell
With my open wounds that never healed
You gave me my own blood
You took it from my heart
But now I'm free again
And I'll come for you

And now is the time to strike back
It will be hard and painful
No mercy anymore

There is no more forgiveness

I'll fight with all my hate
There's nowhere to run
No place to hide

12. I'll Show No Fear

I'm far away from home
I see the deep blue sky

Nothing matters, no one cares
We have so many ways to go
But I will always go my way

There will be fear and cries of pain
I'll show no tear and won't complain
Why can't you stay away from me
I found a key to live my dream

Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to

Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to

You tell me to be someone else
To be what I don't want to be
Respect me, or leave me alone
I am what I am

Nothing matters, no one cares
And to be honest
I don't care

There will be fear and cries of pain
I'll show no tear and won't complain
Why can't you stay away from me
I found a key to live my dream

Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to

Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to

13. I See The Falling Sky

I would like to see
What becomes of me
A reason, a failure
Displaced it be

I would like to know
When we will drown
Connected, convicted
Technology

Green turns into grey
Blue into smoke
Progression, depression
We suffocate

The lying
And all the crying
Decision, depression
Communicate

The rest is not real
But that is a lie
Beneath me I see
The falling sky

I shut my eyes
To see better times
All for, trust more
But in vain

I saw the madness
Our weakness
Destruction, corruption
No wonder I'm insane

The rest is not real
But that is a lie
Beneath me I see
The falling sky

The rest is not real
But that is a lie
Beneath me I see
The falling sky

When I look around
When I try to remember
When I look around
To a better time

When I look around
When I try to remember
When I look around
I start to dream

Tell me what you think
Tell me, am I sick?
Desperation, termination
Rebuilt

Goodbye my dear
Defeated, deleted
It was a guilt

The rest is not real
But that is a lie
Beneath me I see
The falling sky

The rest is not real
But that is a lie
Beneath me I see
The falling sky
