Tracks



01. Ghost

I blame myself for what I've become to be
Because the demon hides behind the angel in me
God knows I've tried to walk away
But the ghost have inside is here to stay

'Forgive me, lord' I stopped to pray
'I know it's not an angel's way... I just had to try'
The lord just said 'When you deal with man
You have to do the best you can'

My innocence arrived too late
I just could not wait
The ghost of mine has chosen side
Love and hate collides
I just could not deciede

I just can't forgive
It's like I can't get relief
Let me give my blood and sweat
Let me live to repay the dead

02. Djinn

Bring me fire, naked flames
Wake my desire and speak my name
Just pure and clean, a lucid blaze
Let the dancing beams lick my face

Fire, fill my heart with gold
Not only ashes, grey and cold
Give me luster while I shine
Let the magic glow be mine

Will you blow into the ashes for me
Light my fire and let me see
What comes out of the red, black tongues
Tell me how the fire is done
And where it runs?.

It's eating me alive. The invisible warmth
All glows? you're sick
Mommy, I don't know where I'm going

The flame is dark and dun, yet burning so bright
bright as a blinding sun
Filled with poison, the once pure light?
Drown me in the night

Release the light, let it shine so bright

Let the magic glow return
Release the flame and let it burn?

03. Myling

The morning frost has now been trod
I'm left outside on frozen sod
Without a care or need
Between the wilted weed

I deserve to leave this world

I am the one who weeps
And never gets my sleep
No rest?

I deserve to leave this world

Shroudless, no chiming bells
Coffinless and no place to dwell

Awaits the solemn change
A whish for death seems not strange
Give me a name?

I deserve to leave this world

Shroudless, no chiming bells
Coffinless and no place to dwell

05. Paradise

Set my spirit free and open up the sky for me?
Let me find the way to paradise
Escape my empty needs
Escape the echoes of my greed
And leave without distress into the emptiness

Just open up the sky and show me paradise

Another day must die to keep my dream alive
I dream of paradise

To live I have to die. Open up the sky
I live for paradise

Rising sun burn my fears
Weeping moon shed my tears
Until I see so clear

Just open up the sky and show me paradise

The wind will blow my bodyfree
The rain will clear my memory
Let the spiritflow, let spirit flow in me

Peace came into my heart and that day everything else slowly faded away into the emptiness.
It's like the stars are feeding me with light
Now I know the secrets of the unborn. It's like I see the unseen
Like I inhale the warmth of a thousand invisible suns
I know the time is right for the last escape into paradise

Present me for a dragonfly
to open up the sky

Please let me into paradise
Let my spirit fly

Rising sun burn my fears
Weeping moon shed my tears
Until I see so clear

06. Serpent

I lost myself to the sea
And asked it, what do you have for me
I wondered, what I could find
Would it treat me kind
Or coddle me with lies
And make me wish I could die

Can you drown my silent scream
And recover all my dreams
Can I dive into your stream
And become my dreams

Dancing beams led the way
Come with me and we will play
Deep below the waiting waves

Can you drown my silent scream
And recover all my dreams
Can I dive into your stream
And become my deepest dreams

A love insane, adore and smear
Wet, blue eyes, salty tears
Slip away and just disappear

The serpent's tongue
Will drag you down with sirens song
A sunken nest
An oceanchild searching for rest
A thousand waves
Out of reach, the silent graves

Then everything was clear
But left a hollow fear
Deep inside of me
I could feel the cold defying sea

Darkness turned to light
A solid shore caught my sight
Why was I so blind
All the beautiful things I left behind
