Sandstorm

Can you hear the howling from the south
Lifting up the desert off the ground
Scattering the pieces of your shattered will
Why are you still trying to remember
Forget everything you know
And watch the storm erase it all
The memories you hold
The names that you’ve known
Will be replaced and forever gone
The memories you hold
The names that you’ve known
Will be replaced and forever gone
Can you see the sun the desert’s lust
Disappearing behind the swirling clouds of dust
The storm is getting closer now
Violent, ruthless, vicious, deadly
Defiant, restless, malicious
Destroying all remaining fractions
Of your shattered will
Why are you refusing to surrender
Forget everything you know
And watch the storm erase it all
The memories you hold
The names that you’ve known
Will be replaced and forever gone
The memories you hold
The names that you’ve known
Will be replaced and forever gone
Silent (We are still here)
Breathless (Remember us)
Silent (Remember your past)
Breathless (We are not forgotten)
Stuck on the border
Where winds lay dormant
And time never goes on
Stuck on the edge
Of breathing and breathless
With memories of another life
Gather all the pieces of your shattered will
And don’t you ever stop to remember!
Forget everything you know
And watch the storm erase it all
The memories you hold
The names that you’ve known
Will be replaced and forever gone
Forget everything you know
And watch the storm erase it all
The memories you hold
The names that you’ve known
Will be replaced and forever gone

The Fields Of Sand
06:00
|
|||
|
The wind still howls
Throwing sand
Right into his eyes
And he walks blind
Through the dunes
Looking for pieces of his life
The desert is
Far too vast
For us to walk through
And if you think
That you will find
The hidden mysteries
You will only lose yourself
When every road leads away from home
And it will get out of hand
You are not prepared for the vast fields of sand
The heat will burn
Down your throat like fire
And you’ll find yourself out of breath
It’s a lonely road
But if you’re mind is strong
It won’t take too long
Until you find the other way
To the water and your thirst will be
Satisfied again
And you will find a way through the vast fields of sand
Light!
Burning his eyes
Scorching his mind
Now run!
Run for your life
And carry along the truth
This ancient world
Is longing for you
To open their eyes again
The blind will see
But the seeing are blind
And they will bury you alive
The caravans are moving faster
And you are gonna be left behind
And if you find
A hidden oasis
Deep among the sands
Don’t you think
That you are safe
‘Cause you…
May be caught inside a dream
And nothing will save you ‘till
You snap out of it
And you will find a way through the vast fields of sand

Visions
02:57

I see them like memories
Coming and going with the wind
I see them in front of me
They are telling me of a world unseen
The past is calling me
Begging ‘Don’t forget the dreams
Hidden in the silence
The songs that only clear minds can hear’
They show me the hourglass
And the time everyone turns into dust
They speak of ancient minds
Sending wisdom from beyond the stars
Every truth is written within
But only blind eyes can see
Hidden in the darkness
The secrets seeing eyes can never see
They tell me ‘Open up your mind
To the wonders and mysteries you hide!’
They say I’m the only one
Who can show me secrets of myself

Dark Waters
04:17
|
|||
|
Sleepwalkers with open eyes
Hypnotised
Falling down, further down
Into hibernation
Sleepwalkers with wounded minds
Anaesthetised
Marching down, further down
Into addiction
Out of addiction she is born
And she is luring them in dark waters
Beautiful melodies
Soothing to mind
Surrender to the peace
And keep sinking down, further down
Into submission
Out of submission she is born
With a beautiful voice
And she is luring them in dark waters
The waters pull you under
Burning down into your lungs
The waters pull you under
Singing songs of delight
A blissful state of mind
Only dark waters hide

Lullaby Of The Abyss
03:05
|
|||
|
Hush, little baby,
Just close your eyes
In the deepest of waters
Where light never comes
I’ll rock the cradle
As it slowly sinks
While the sirens of darkness
Sing you back to sleep
Sleep, baby, sleep…
Sleep, little baby,
In the land of bliss
And don’t ever fear
The silent abyss

The New Order
03:28
|

|
Spread the word
Follow my way
This world has come to an end
Spread the word
New order awakes
Awareness is dead
I am the mind
(Listen to me)
I am the eyes
(My words are free)
I am the light
(My songs are sweet)
I will save you as I take your life
(They’ll bring you relief)
And I will finally free you all
From the burdens of mind
I live through your bliss
Through your sin
Through you
Surrender to my words
Surrender to my voice
And follow my way
Spread the word
New order has come
Now ignorance is born
Chains around your necks
Chains are your minds
On a leash I will lead you there
Slaves of my bliss
Slaves of my sin
You will forever be
I’m the father of your truths
I live through your mind
I live through your heart
I am a part of you

Awake
07:21

Wake up you’re dreaming
Wake up you’re dreaming
Wake up you’re dreaming
‘Cause your time is running out
We forgot
But you will remember
We will find a way out of the water
And we will learn to breathe
Until the last breath
We will fight our way out of the darkness
And we will learn to see
We’ll see the break of day
Wake up you’re dreaming
The darkness is deceiving
Wake up you’re drowning
And you’re running out of breath
You were lost
But you’ll soon be found
We will find a way out of the water
And we will learn to breathe
Until the last breath
We will fight our way out of the darkness
And we will learn to see
We’ll see the break of day
I wanna feel
The sun shining warm on me
I wanna feel
The scent of home, and breathe in
I wanna feel
Freedom of mind, of heart
I wanna feel
I wanna feel alive
But we will find a way out of the water
And we will learn to breathe
Until the last breath
We will fight our way out of the darkness
And we will learn to see
We’ll see the break of day
Wake up you’re dreaming
Wake up you’re dreaming
I’m awake!

The Mystic

Hello wanderer, driven by dreams
Of life from the heaven’s depths
Constantly looking at the stars
Trying to read what can’t be read
So wanderer, you’re driven by light
Glimmering from the past
Oh, can you not see it’s millennia away
For you to get a grasp
Hello old man, sick with remorse
After life spent behind closed eyes
The night sky above still lightens my way
As bright as the night before
So I can’t assure
That you’ll see through my world
In a battle of will
You know you cannot win
Calm down, wanderer, and listen to me
I’m the voice of sagacity
The sands of time have buried them all
Along with their memories
Listen old man, and hear their hearts
Beating inside me
They are waiting for the time to rise again
Out of tranquility
So I can’t assure
That you’ll see through my world
In a battle of will
You know you cannot win
Their faces are burning under the sun
Beyond recognition
And there is no way back home
The dunes and the sands are silent to tell
The stories of cultures
Vanished long ago
Be silent young man, stubborn, undone!
Your dreams are fatuity
The visions you see and follow ahead
Are clouding your sanity
Farewell, old man
Your worlds of insight can no longer reach me
I found my way out
The city of sand that you’ve built around me
So I can’t assure
That you’ll see through my world
In a battle of will
You know you cannot win

Hourglass
03:57

Tiny, little ashes fall down
Through the perfectly shaped glass
Each one is a fraction of dust
But they are a perfect perception of time
Tiny, little grains of sand
Falling down one by one
They are just a drop in the ocean of time
And yet they tell the story of your life
Until the crystal falls down
Shattered into nothingness
Scattered around
Without a meaning or purpose
And the story is over
And you realise that you’re gone
Tiny, little pieces of time
Passing as quickly as light
They won’t let you run and hide
In the end they will take your life
