Loner boy, loner boy
I've seen you tonight
Loner boy, come to me
I need your light
When I was dancing on the edge
When I was kneeling on broken knees
There was nothing to ease the pain
When I was sleeping in darkness
When I was screaming awake in nightmares
There was nothing to take away my shame
Half-human, half-nothing
Motionless, emotionless
I was seeking for life
And I found you
When I was swirling in chaos
When only rage led me on the road
I was burning inside cold
When I was letting it all go
When I was erasing a mark of tears
I kept seeking after all those years
Half-human, half-nothing
Motionless, emotionless
You were seeking for life
I was seeking for light
And we found each other's bless
When we are in the face of death
When we are living up the last breath
I want you beside me
I want your half inside me
With one cause, in one fight
We're half darkness, we are half light
In the beat of one heart
When I wake up in the morning
I want you to wake up without tears
In a day when we don't have to be mourning
When I go to sleep at night
I want you to ease me with your might
To end the day heeding to our calling
When we are in the face of death
When we are living up the last breath
I want you beside me
I want your half inside me
With one cause, in one fight
We're half darkness, we are half light
In the beat of one heart
This is just the beginning
This is just the beginning of seeking
Light/life, it is all inside our heart
With darkness, with madness
This is all inside our blood
Call your spirits and stand the flood
Of darkness, of madness
And this world shall be ours
I hand it to you
When we are in the face of death
When we are living up the last breath
I want you beside me
I want your half inside me
With one cause, in one fight
We're half darkness, we are half light
In the beat of one heart
In the beat of one heart
In the beat of one heart

Jetflight

Come, take my hand
I know, it's the first time we fly
The clouds are high above
We can fall, we can die
At any time
Engines burst
The lights are showing us the path
To a better world, or to what end
I don't know, I'm afraid as well
But I hold your hand
Engines are starting
We are speeding faster than our sound
Crisp metal is piercing through the air
As our souls lift from the ground
Fly with me
Following the sun
From east to west
Together with time we run
With the speed of light
We're chasing our dreams
With a jetflight
We're burning all the fuel
While the dream is only one
No matter where we fly
Together we're gone
Come, take my hand
Let's go around the Earth
And find our land
It's calling: the forest, the sand
The mountain, the plain, I don't care
As I hold your hand
The sun is setting
For all the ones still on the ground
Soon it will be night, they have to rise
But in this dawn we own the sky
Fly with me
Following the sun
From east to west
Together with time we run
With the speed of light
We're chasing our dreams
With a jetflight
We're burning all the fuel
While the dream is only one
No matter where we fly
Together we're gone
Engines are blazing
We are speeding faster than our sound
Crisp metal is piercing through the air
As our souls lift from the ground
Please come with me to the sky
Gather all the light in your eye
Open your soul, take my hand
Let's go the way we've sworn
On golden wings, in a blazing halo
We are reborn
Fly with me
Following the sun
From east to west
Together with time we run
With the speed of light
We're chasing our dreams
With a jetflight
We're burning all the fuel
While the dream is only one
No matter where we fly
Together we're gone

Morning Star

I bring you light
I bring you a pillar of flame to keep you warm
I give you the fire inside
To beat your heart, and roar like a thunderstorm
You are alive, matter, which is better
Peace in the cold, or motion without teather
Hell is just a house for the flame
So that the dead won't come and blow it away
I bring you light
No matter if I fall for you
Life is the only command
Step forward to defeat the cold end
I bring you light
I will be your shooting star
Just love with every beat of your heart
And never let the flame die
Always keep the morning star
Angels come for you in the night
They want to take you away
If you don't dream, heaven comes
But heaven is cold, heaven is grey
You are alive, spirit, the fire is in you
The warmth they need to kill to subordniate you
I let you build your house of flames
Just don't let death blow away your dreams
I bring you light
No matter if I fall for you
Life is the only command
Step forward to defeat the cold end
I bring you light
I will be your shooting star
Just love with every beat of your heart
And never let the flame die
Always keep the morning star
No matter where you stand when darkness falls
Just look up to the sky, look inside
And see the light of the morning star
Angels of death come for us every night
Stillness and a peace of mind
Offered in exchange for your life
Angels of death are taking us to heaven
But heaven is dark, heaven is dead
Angels murder souls, heaven is the end
Heaven is dark, heaven is dead
Angels murder souls, heaven is the end
Heaven is cold, heaven is black
Angels lure you to emptiness
I bring you light
No matter if I fall for you
Life is the only command
Step forward to defeat the cold end
I bring you light
I will be your shooting star
Just love with every beat of your heart
And never let the flame die
Always keep the morning star

In the shadow I stand
And silently watch you go
Sometimes time must stand
In the moment when we descend low
In the silence
Where words are not meant to be
Under the moonlight
The river flows to the endless sea
In the shadow I stand
I feel the spirit and the flesh
I kiss the wound
And let the wind carry the pain to retrospect
In the silence
Where I'm no longer meant to be
Under the moonlight
I set out towards my true destiny
Leave the shadows behind
Seeking your eternal sun
Break the cocoon apart and
Stand the flood when hope is gone
When all is gone
In the shadow you stand
And silently watch me go
Sometimes it's meant to be
Sometimes it's best to let it go (let me go)
In the silence
Where no words can bind the act
Under the moonlight
I become my own grand architect
In the shadow you stand
And you realize it's time to go
There's noone else left standing by
And the river just keeps the flow
You have to rise to fall
But anytime you fall you can rise
The spirit in you will guide your hand
There's so much light inside
Leave the shadows behind
Seeking your eternal sun
Break the cocoon apart and
Stand the flood when hope is gone, when all is gone
The night within is a night that ends
And the moon of your spirit will last
Throught the silence your words will rise
Through the shadows you will find the light you seek
Give strenght
To the meek
Give hope
For the weak
Bring light
To the dark
Show your soul
Shine in your moonlight
Leave the shadows behind
Seeking your eternal sun
Break the cocoon apart and
Stand the flood when hope is gone, when all is gone
The night within is a night that ends
And the moon of your spirit will last
Throught the silence your words will rise
Through the shadows you will find the light you seek
Leave the shadows behind
Seeking your eternal sun
Break the cocoon apart and
Stand the flood when hope is gone, when all is gone

Alone in the summer sunlight
Walk the nameless road
With the joy of life inside your heart
Let your own story unfold
Who is good enough
How do you measure if it's enough pleasure
Oh, who do you treasure in your heart
And who do you leave on the roadside, forever behind
Send me a clue
Tell me what makes two stars match
I know what breaks them apart
But once I stitch my own, how can I find your/another heart
Who is good enough
What makes the gold stay bright, or closes the story untold
What makes you stay, on the darkest day
If the wind blows voice of mesmerizing calls
Send me a sign
Tell me in this moment what I am worth
I know what breaks my soul apart
But once I stitch it, will you need my heart?
This is where I got
I'm not sure what I'm worth
Sometimes I fail
Like a womb too weak to give birth
Tell me the truth
Are you waiting at the end of the road
How could I reach there
When my leg is trembling and my soul is tired and cold
Tell me, is this the end
Do I have more inside
Or is this me
Is this all
Is this what seeks your love
And is this what never finds
Stars don't chase, you don't chase stars
You are strong, your strength lies in smiles
You don't seek light, but you shine
You don't seek warmth, you are the sun
You are the only one
Just walk the only road, towards you
Alone in the summer night
Just watch the stars with opened eyes
And open soul
So when your star calls
You'll be ready to sing the song of yours

Adventure

This is the great adventure
Let's leave this universe of mine
Open the gate to another world
And travel far through space and time
We have built the ark
Our fragile hope of intricate design
Let's leave the port with the wind of the night
And sail out into the wild
I hear monsters coming from the dirt
Run fast, I'll hold them and we'll save Earth
Run away, run to the other side
Run through the darkness, we cannot hide
Embark on the great journey
Inside the maleficient dark, carry the light
To our great adventure
Welcome to the mighty jungle
Our vessel embarks on your river of thought
Let's find the heart of darkness
And light a fire to exile the cold
Let's flow downriver in the starlight
When you shiver, just hold my arm
We will be safe, caress the warmth
When the dark depth calls, just don't look down
I hear monsters coming from the the dirt
I hear demons torn out from your heart
Run fast, to the heart of darkness
And face them there with the sword of light
Run away, run to the other side
Run through the darkness, we mustn't hide
Embark on the great journey
Inside the maleficient dark, carry the light
Run away, run to the other side
Bring dawn to the everlasting night
Carry the flame throuh the grand voyage
This is our only life - the great adventure
This is the great adventure
I'll hold you in the darkest hour
When mountains break and the monster's awake
I'll bring you light, we'll stand a fight together
Run away, run to the other side
Run through the darkness, we mustn't hide
Embark on the great journey
Inside the maleficient dark, carry the light
Run away, run to the other side
Bring dawn to the everlasting night
Carry the flame throuh the grand voyage
This is our only life - the great adventure

I don't care
What I'm supposed to be
I was born a man
But I've always been a soul
I don't care
If they think I'm a fool
What I care
Is that you love me
I don't care
What you're supposed to be
You were a born a lady
But you've always been a soul
Please don't care
What they think
Be yourself
And I'll love you
I need your stats
I need your one one one
In my zero zero zero
I need your parts
I need a princess to save when I'm strong
And then when I'm down, I need you to be my hero
When it's black
I'll be white
When it's bright
I'll be dark
When it's fear
I will be the arm
When it's cold
I will be the warmth
For you
I don't care
Where the world goes
Where our life flows
It flows away anyway
You are the part
The combination
The code to salvation
No matter if it works
No matter if it hurts
I need your ones and zeros
For you are you
I need your stats
I need your one one one
In my zero zero zero
I need your parts
I need a princess to save when I'm strong
And then when I'm down, I need you to be my hero
I need your stats
I need your one one one
In my zero zero zero
I need your parts
I need a princess to save when I'm strong
And then when I'm down, I need you to be my hero
You are the one in my zero

Her Call Left Unheard
05:10

In the place called home
Where only fear resides
With blood on the walls
You seek mercy in his eyes
Father, let me breathe
Yet your scream is carried away
In his soulless breeze
The only warmth you feel
Is the warmth of rage inside
As blood is pumping from the heart
Yet you only want to hide
The only love you get
Is the prison of their mind
Oh welcome home
In the kingdom of the blind
Screaming for some help
The more you tried, the less they cared
Reaching out with your soul
To collect the pieces of your own shattered
Heart: come, see the light
There is endless space in the universe
Come, you have to find
Your place to rest and start over
Your life at last
When they said yes
And you felt no
Being torn apart between
Them and your own soul
Father, let me live
Can't you see I'm dying
I can't stop crying
From you
This is the world you built
For us
A world of wealth, where wealth is dust
Come on, just for a day
Love me and I'll show you the other way
Come on, I'm here
My heart is open for you
But I can only feel the pain
As your sword is coming through
Screaming without help
The world embraced you, as they didn't care
Guarded by kindred souls
You found the strenght to dare
Standing up, stronger than ever before
You are shining through the cage
The world is yours to find the light
While they are facing a sunless age
Without you
You are alive, and he is dying
The chance is passing away
With every single day
He is on his throne
The reaper approaches, but he won't open
The gate (even for death he closed the gate)
Father, I am alive
The table has turned, how much have you earned?
The dust is in your hand, but time is flying
And you won't get back a moment that you burned
This is your world
This is your life
The universe is at your hand
Come on, unleash your inner light
This is your world
This is your life
The universe is at your hand
Father, listen at last
Love could be the way
If you didn't choose the dust

How many days? None can tell
How many years we have to build up the spell
To bind the blood, to draw the symbol
To cut the goat and see the idol
How many days does it take
To escape all the world that is fake
I don't mind, you're here with me
But I'm afraid
On a day
One of us
Will fall
And one of us remains
At the funeral pyre
Raining tears on the last trace of a blaze
On that day
The gate closes
To preserve the fire within
As we still walk one way
To the sky
On a day when all will be lost
One will breathe the scent of the ghost
One will shield when the other would yield
One will be the sword the other would wield
One heart, one soul, on two fields
Death only hurts
For the one who stays, when the other half is gone
Yet the bondage stays, the light remains
The spirit guides on hazy ways
Two lights so bright can bridge the universe
Time and space we can conquer
Together we are strong
And nobody's left behind
On a day
One of us
Will fall
And one of us remains
At the funeral pyre
Raining tears on the last trace of a blaze
On that day
The gate closes
To preserve the fire within
As we still walk one way
To the sky
On a day when all will be lost
One will breathe the scent of the ghost
One will shield when the other would yield
One will be the sword the other would wield
One heart, one soul, on two fields
Summon your spirits to show the road
Call your ancestors when hope starts to fade
The dead is yours, you keep them gold
Till the call of reunion we all have to obey
Summon your spirits to show the road
Call your ancestors when hope starts to fade
The dead is yours, you keep them gold
Till the call of reunion we all have to obey
On a day when all will be lost
One will breathe the scent of the ghost
One will shield when the other would yield
One will be the sword the other would wield
One heart, one soul, on two fields
On a day when all will be lost
One will breathe the scent of the ghost
One will shield when the other would yield
One will be the sword the other would wield
One heart, one soul, on two fields

Let It

No matter how many hands you touch
How many threads you pull
To feel your life is full
I know there is a golden line you won't break
You can't break
No matter how many souls you save
To show yourself that you are brave
I hold your hand in the moment
When hope seems far away
Just take
My hand and come back to the fire
Hush now, it's safe
No noise, just your heartbeat
Let all the shadows go
Let your heart be free
All the love, all the fire
Let it, let it be free
Let the fear go
Let the feeling wash away all chains
Love with all your freedom
Let it be, let it be free
My arms shall be castle walls
My heart is fortified, my mind armed to teeth
The fire within is blazing
To save the princess and bring her ease
Darkness may lurk in the dungeons
Cold storms may darken the sky
Even great fires cast shadows
But I'll keep you close to the light
Just take
My hand and come back to the fire
It's safe now, slow down
No noise, just our heartbeat
Let all the shadows go
Let your heart be free
All the love, all the fire
Let it, let it be free
Let the fear go
Let the feeling wash away all chains
Love with all your freedom
Let it be, let it be free
Let all the shadows go
Let your heart be free
All the love, all the fire
Let it, let it be free
Let the fear go
Let the feeling wash away all chains
Love with all your freedom
Let it be, let it be free
My arms may not be castle walls
I am just like you
But I won't confine you in stone
I'm the earth for you to stand on
I'm your skin to touch
Your woods to walk
I'm your wings to fly
Your mountain to climb
Your light to see
I'm your warmth in the breeze
I'm holding a pearl inside for you
Just look inside, and see your light on it
