01. Shade Of A Ghost

Petals are falling! Shadows are calling!
And I can only live as a shade of a ghost

There is a garden of shadows hiding from the light
Where the reality is but a gap of days and nights
And every color is but a shade of grey
Every living leaf decays
'Till the petals fall like tears in the rain

There was a time when the moon would bring the dew so pure
And by the morning the sun would taint the skies of blue
But if the day had been longer than the night
There would be no cries inside
Now the bounds of fate are holding me tight

Now I roam and there's no return
There's a ghost everywhere I turn
Telling of the past

The fire, the fire deprived in my soul
Desire, desire has gotten cold
The liar, the liar who stole my world
The fighter, the fighter is no longer bold

Petals are falling down
Shadows are calling now
Petals are falling down
And I can only live as a shade of a ghost

Now that the night is so stilled the dawn is pushed away
And as the shadows remain to veil the light of day
There in the blink of an eye where time got lost
Everlasting inner frost
See the will to dream about to exhaust

Now I roam and there's no return
There's a ghost everywhere I turn
Telling of the past

CHORUS

02. The Black Knight

Hands towards the horizon
She is waving goodbye
Her hands are cold, her words ain't bold
An empty heart was torn apart

Her will fades out in the distance
A shadow blown in the wind
She's there just waving goodbye eternally

And days and nights go by
It'll last until she dies

Hands towards the horizon
She is waving goodbye
Her hands are cold, her words ain't bold
An empty heart was torn apart

Her will fades out in the distance
A shadow blown in the wind
She's there just waving goodbye eternally

Like a still life she has nothing left inside
Just a stoned mind which of wish is now deprived
Like a black knight he went on, left her behind
See the sun rise just to praise her grief and blind her belief

Silent as the night he stole her mind
He stole her mind
And as the days went by her eyes got dry
A thousand tears trapped in a sigh

But his geed was high, he enslaved her mind
Never let her go
But his geed was high, he enslaved her mind
Never let her go

Like a still life she has nothing left inside
Just a stoned mind which of wish is now deprived
Like a black knight he went on, left her behind
See the sun rise just to praise her grief and blind her belief

04. Inner Binding

Now open your eyes, how does it feel there where you hide?
Tell me, is it cold? Has it the taste of failed hopes?
Does it have a door showing the way to evermore?
Were you all alone or were your doubts hiding along?

Tell me what it's like
In the place you hide

In a distant inner binding
Overwhelming place you hide in
Far away from this battle strife
Does it have a shelf beside you
With your days displayed, oh can you say
What it's like in the place you hide

I heard there's a wind keeping you safe, leading the way
Some say it's your soul begging to lead you back home
Now open your eyes, how does it feel there where you hide?
Tell me, is it cold? Has it the taste of failed hopes?

Tell me what it's like
In the place you hide
(Say what it's like there where you hide)

In a distant inner binding
Overwhelming place you hide in
Far away from this battle strife
Does it have a shelf beside you
With your days displayed, oh can you say
What it's like in the place you hide

05. Come In Time

I'm trying to keep alive fighting to be
The one who'll bring your soul some harmony
But I need your help my friend
I have done all I can to save your life
And working hard I know we'll do it right
But I need your help my friend

Never give up keep believing inside
And the meaning of life will come in time

So many times you looked up to the sky
The tears you cried for all you left behind
Sometimes you have to pray
And thank for all you're given in the end
'Cause many times you're taken by the hand
But I need your help my friend

Never give up keep believing inside
And the meaning of life will come in time
Live all the dreams you have cried for
The answers you prayed for, surrender
They'll come in time

06. Last, Oh Night

Last, oh night, as no dawn may rise
I'm your dream and older days I bring
Far away, where has led the way
I have come and only dreams remain

Now the willows are grown and still
And the distance has done its will
If no longer I live I can still have your kiss
Every night in your sleep

Mine are the tears in your eyes
Yours is the heat in my heart
I know time won't be kind
And the sunlight will come at all
I curse the early dawn
For the day is so long and the waiting is so long
So please last, oh night

Last, oh night, never long for light
Rest in peace and heal my bleeding bliss
Give me time, hear this plea of mine
Bless her sigh and let me breathe inside

Now the willows are grown and still
And the distance has done its will
If no longer I live I can still have your kiss
Every night in your sleep

Mine are the tears in your eyes
Yours is the heat in my heart
I know time won't be kind
And the sunlight will come at all
I curse the early dawn
For the day is so long and the waiting is so long
So please last, oh night

07. The Beauty And The Beast

Break the spell!
For the feather falling petals in the castle
Break the spell!
For the better never let her tear apart your heart you gotta
Break the spell
Beast of the mirror's cell

I saw crystal tears on the ground
I saw misty fields all around
As a cold reflex you've stood beyond
The beauty and the beast... you and me

Break the spell!
For the feather falling petals in the castle
Break the spell!
For the better never let her tear apart your heart you gotta
Break the spell
Beast of the mirror's cell

I saw torches flaming at the gates
I saw shadows caving in my fate
As a thousand voices cried the doom
The beauty and the beast .... cease!

Oh, beloved time
Now I'm drowning in your arms
As the petals fall
And the rust covers the crown

My hindmost hope
Come alone, come through the mist
I give my soul
To the one who's learned to love the beast

BRIDGE

CHORUS

08. Better Forget

Once again the pages turn
And it's time of moving on
When the dawn of a new day
Seems to burst along the way

You may wish all were the same
You may curse all was in vain
But it's over now!

All the sorrow and the pain
Put'em back and start again
You'd better close the door
Reset the scoring

Better forget
Better to move on than regret
Straight ahead, don't look back
Head up high!

09. I Remember

Always in a dome
I have lost myself and now I'm always so alone
I have lost myself within the echoes of my home
Just the memories of the days when I could carry on

But the end has come
And the disillusions cut my flesh down to the bones
All the grand illusions have become a hiding dome
And I can no longer face the man I have become
How to carry on?

Now! I can remember now
Time, time was the loss of my hope
Oh, How could I help surrendering?
I remember

Once I had dreams to rely on
When hopes were so bright
At the reach of my hand
Nothing to fear not a tear I should face
All set in pace
I cherish deep in my heart
Those days were meant to part

Suddenly despair
Suddenly the air was bitter, more than I could bare
Wasn't meant to be the sinner, How could no one care?
Deeply sad to see I dread the man I have become
How to carry on?

CHORUS

10. P.S. I Miss You

Every morning upon waking
I still wonder how you're doing
Are you sorry? Are you happy?
Or who knows you might feel lonely
I sure do
P.S. I miss you

I go over days when you were close to me
Those are memories I've carried all the way
So I swear to all the angels
Should they bring you back
I would kneel and thank'em all until the end
Oh I, I miss you

From the early morning
'Till the nightfall moaning
In a restless waiting
Wishing you would come in

But if you're not mine
I still hope you're fine
That's all.
P.S. I miss you
