01. City Of Heroes

Music & lyrics by Mat Sinner & Magnus Karlsson
I hide you, I find you, I catch your fall
I'll be there when the lights go out
They call me a hero but I'm not made of stone
I've met the monsters in us all

I can show you what's all about
I'm here to challenge the world
As the sun goes down in front of me
I'll wait, wait for you

Don't give up now
I'm back from the city of heroes
The city of hope
Don't give up now
I'm back from the city of heroes
And hero will fight for the truth

I don't sell my soul
For the one who pays smalls
Time for the hero in us all

I've learned how to fly
And I've learned how to die
In the sky of all our souls

I believe only I can save you now
So answer my call
I heard your silent scream and saw you bleeding now
I catch your fall

Don't give up now
I'm back from the city of heroes
The city of hope
Don't give up now
I'm back from the city of heroes
And hero will fight for the truth

02. Walk On Water

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
The first time I saw you
I couldn't tame my emotions
I couldn't sleep at night

Caught between hot and cold
I'm here to see alone
And the north wind cried

I tried to control my feelings
I know for the first minute I'm caught in the game
My heart was beating like a drum
All was in vain

Over the mountains and the seas
I walk on water
I'm drying all you tears

Over the mountains and the seas
I'm calling out your name
I'm taking all your fears away

My eyes so wide open
As I saw you leaving
And my world was falling apart

You left me bleeding
I'm standing beside you
But I'm not sure what I'm gonna do

When I was trying to forget you
I couldn't go on, but now the tables have turned
I'm ready to break these chains
Don't let it slip away

Over the mountains and the seas
I walk on water
I'm drying all you tears

Over the mountains and the seas
I'm calling out your name
I'm taking all your fears away

Am I dreaming
Can you feel it
Am I the only one
Who sees the signs

Will you believe me
Beg you one last time
I'm gonna save us now

Over the mountains and the seas
I walk on water
I'm drying all you tears

Over the mountains and the seas
I'm calling out your name
I'm taking all your fears away

03. Rising Up

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
I stole my daddy's car only to be cool
I slam the brakes and acted like a fool
I'm gonna take you on a trip so far away from here
We're gonna disappear

I just woke up on the Monday morning
Clouded skies and the rain was pouring
It was so silent I could hear you breathe
We're gonna disappear

Rising up like a phoenix from the flames
Rising up jumping off this tray
Rising up like a phoenix from the flames
I have told you, I will break these chains

One in the morning I'm still on the streets
Searching for aware looking for relieve
A simple situation just you and me
We're gonna disappear

You stole my dreams and you took my heart
You told me heaven can wait
I'm gonna ride into the cold of day
We're gonna disappear

We're born on the dark side
Love is not the enemy
We're born on the dark side
We're out-casters away

Rising up like a phoenix from the flames
Rising up jumping off this tray
Rising up like a phoenix from the flames
I have told you, I will break these chains

04. Salvation

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
Leave the day and loose the light
And the world will fall apart
My whole life was crushing down
I was shooting for the stars

Into the silver of the moon light
We walked until the horizon
I opened my arms and the dark open night
And justice will be done

Come on hold me
There's not another a minute to waste
I've told you right
From the start

Salvation
I can't resist your temptation
Leaving empty damnation
'Till the world is falling down, falling down

How many nights will I wait for you
How many rules will you break
How many tears should I cry for you
Until you understand

I never lied to you (Never)
You're just too good to be true
I know I gave you nothing but grieve
And just came out of the blue

Come on hold me
There's not another a minute to waste
I've told you right
From the start

Salvation
I can't resist your temptation
Leaving empty damnation
'Till the world is falling down, falling down

05. Lights Out

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
It's our game
It's our rules
It's our secret

No one knows
No one seemed
What's going on

I don't look
I don't smile
We're just waiting

For the night
For the dark
For our kingdom

Pretend it's a different life
All it's just a game

When the lights are out all fear is gone
The world is faded, we're one
Closer and closer
The cold outside can't reach us now

Doesn't matter what we went through
Tonight it's only me and you
The others are far away
Lights out, light out tonight

In the day
We are shy
We are hiding

Not a word
Not a touch
Act like strangers

But I know
We are bound
When the night comes

I can feel
I can sense
Always find you

Pretend it's a different life
All it's just a game

When the lights are out all fear is gone
The world is faded, we're one
Closer and closer
The cold outside can't reach us now

Doesn't matter what we went through
Tonight it's only me and you
The others are far away
Lights out, light out tonight

06. Breaking Neptune

Music & lyrics by Amanda Somerville & Sander Gommans
Crash!
Can you feel me in the walls
In the cracks of your perfection
Feel it in the longer haul
In the siren's calling

I'm waiting
Then I'm racing
Then I'm waiting once again
For the race to end

High you rise
But you won't make it, breaking Neptune
Fly the skies
But you can't take it, making Neptune
Fight

Smash!
Now the frame begins to shake
Caving in your stone creation
With the water swells the ache
Of Poseidon's making

You're lying
Say you're trying
But you'll lie until the end
With a message sent

High you rise
But you won't make it, breaking Neptune
Fly the skies
But you can't take it, making Neptune
Fight

Then a purity overcomes me
And I feel I'm flying
Rising up from the ashes of catastrophe
I am taking flight
And security sets the wheels in motion
No looking back
But will I succeed?

Denial - Your smiles
Give away your cheap intent
Here we go again
Yeah here we go again

High you rise
But you won't make it, breaking Neptune
Fly the skies
But you can't take it, making Neptune
Fight

Cut the ties - but you forsake it
Breaking Neptune
Cry surprised - but you can't fake
Mistaking Neptune's fight

07. Ocean Of Tears

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
I'm gonna take you to the stars
Remember the time we spend together
And now you're gone forever

I'm gonna take you to the stars
I'm flying to the sun with you
There's no return I'm gone for you

I stand right before my ruin
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

Tonight I'm gonna take you to the stars
Even though my world is falling apart
I take you to the stars
In an ocean of tears

Tonight I'm gonna take you to the stars
Howling the wind with broken heart
Like an imaginary parts
In an ocean of tears

I'm gonna take you to the stars
Hit by a sword hurts my heart
A scar that last forever

I'm gonna take you to the stars
Just wanna tell you au revoir
No more miracles my dark angel

I'm gonna count my days remaining
I still see your face
In a breach of stars

Tonight I'm gonna take you to the stars
Even though my world is falling apart
I take you to the stars
In an ocean of tears

Tonight I'm gonna take you to the stars
Howling the wind with broken heart
Like an imaginary parts
In an ocean of tears

I'm gonna take you to the stars
And I know this forever

08. Open Your Eyes

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
Open your eyes
Open your heart for me
Baptized by fire
And we breath the air
We'll tear on these walls
Rise up from the ashes above

On broken rolls I'm spinning on the gutter
Two world collide only even good die on
I got my ticket to ride into the sunrise
The lonely road, that's my pain

Roll the dice, spin the wheel of fortune
Like a game I just can't win
Promises all lies I'm made not
The air don't hold, make us stronger

Open your eyes
Open your heart for me
Baptized by fire
And we breath the air
We'll tear on these walls
Rise up from the ashes above

Are you ready for the brand new journey
Now all my memories are gone
There's nobody who can tears us apart
And my destination is set and done

Roll the dice, spin the wheel of fortune
Like a game I just can't win
Promises all lies I'm made not
The air don't hold, make us stronger

Open your eyes
Open your heart for me
Baptized by fire
And we breath the air
We'll tear on these walls
Rise up from the ashes above

09. Last Goodbye

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
Another rainy night
Caught me eye to eye
When trouble's knocking at my door

Until the morning breaks
We go our separate ways
And nothing heals my broken heart

We get
Closer and closer than flames burning higher
Holding on the lights down low
You'll feel the fire

I believe you'll can run or you can fight
When you're out on your own
Out in the darkest night

I believe you'll can run or you can fight
And now that the tables have turned
Our last goodbye

I've tried to run away
There was no escape
But in the end I'm losing you

Feel like the prisoner
Who made a big mistake
Don't waste my time on your revenge

My heart
Speeding and beating I can't get a plane
On and on my lights are low
Lying by the side

I believe you'll can run or you can fight
When you're out on your own
Out in the darkest night

I believe you'll can run or you can fight
And now that the tables have turned
Our last goodbye

10. After The Night Is Over

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
I just remember I could hold you
The light have stuck in your eyes
After the night was through
They gonna paralyzed

I'm here for you, I believe in you
My scars will last forever
Heart on my head and back to you
When you needed me most

I wanna know
I wanna see
If this road is leading to nowhere

I wanna feel
I hear you breathe
And your broken wings can be mended

I'll still hold you
Still need you
I'm don't regret
We're just living right now

After the night is over

I know you'll never turn your back on me
After these months of silence
I keep my feelings locked inside you
Deep within me

I'm here for you, I believe in you
My scars will last forever
Heart on my head and back to you
When you needed me most

I wanna know
I wanna see
If this road is leading to nowhere

I wanna feel
I hear you breathe
And your broken wings can be mended

I'll still hold you
Still need you
I'm don't regret
We're just living right now

After the night is over

11. Run With A Dream

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
It doesn't matter how far I travel
You're always near
It doesn't matter how deep I'm dreaming
You're always here

I can't remember how we've started
I just woke up and my whole life was gone
And I don't want it back

No matter where I'm sailing
Where I'm flying
The waves will bring me back
And the wind will take me closer
We run with the dream

You never need to hold me
Need to chain me
I always will return
There's no way I can't escape
We run with the dream

Run with a dream

There's no use in finding you
You're always well
Now I used to try to escape
You always bring me yeah

You never gotta be broken-hearted
On the day that I really found you
No one's taking your place

No matter where I'm sailing
Where I'm flying
The waves will bring me back
And the wind will take me closer
We run with the dream

You never need to hold me
Need to chain me
I always will return
There's no way I can't escape
We run with the dream

Run with a dream

I can't remember how we've started
I just woke up and my whole life was gone
And I don't want it back

No matter where I'm sailing
Where I'm flying
The waves will bring me back
And the wind will take me closer
We run with the dream

You never need to hold me
Need to chain me
I always will return
There's no way I can't escape
We run with the dream

Run with a dream

12. Right Now

Music & lyrics by Sinner & Karlsson
On my way to the sun
Just one minute from heaven
Always there, always near
The best is yet to come

So better start living right now

You're a mystery to me
It's not a strange my life eternally
Will you wake when I drive home tonight

You know a promise that we'll made
When I close my eyes just one more time
With all the bridges that we burned

Just one moment keep on moving
Just one moment so confusing
Moonlight is waiting
For a brand new day

On my way to the sun
Just one minute from heaven
Always there, always near
The best is yet to come

On my way to the sun
On a wings of an angel
No one here, I'll let you know
I catch you when you'll fall

So better start living right now

The sun comes up the rain falls down
Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But I won't lose my faith

I'm still grieving on my life
I'll be a friend who never lets you down
I've been to hell and back again

Just one moment keep on moving
Just one moment so confusing
Moonlight is waiting
For a brand new day

On my way to the sun
Just one minute from heaven
Always there, always near
The best is yet to come

On my way to the sun
On a wings of an angel
No one here, I'll let you know
I catch you when you'll fall

So better start living right now
