1. Beyond (Part 1 - Eternity)
Crossing dark horizons, taking leave of these turbulent shores
By quietus bestowed the key to this life's final door
Receive me now, in halls of starts
Enfold my soul, in your waiting arms
Follow now the heartsong, of the loved ones who lie just ahead
What death hath divided now, let it unite once again
Receive me now, in halls of starts
Enfold my soul, in your loving arms
2. The Damnation of John Faustus
Through divinity I dared to raise up Hell's minions to me
For four years and twenty as servents we lay at your feet
The price for such power, my soul hath I granted in blood
The stars move, the time runs, the clock strikes, for Faustus we come
The wages of sin is death
My God look not so fierce upon me, let me breathe awhile
Come not thou adders and serpents that heaven reviles
Faustus what weepst thou? Tis too late farewell
Fools that will laugh upon earth, surely must weep in Hell
The wages of sin is death
Rend him asunder, beat him from one wall to the other
Leave no piece of his body whole, to perdition we carry his soul
We pray for the soul of the cursed
For the soul of the damned we pray
3. Bending Time
Welcome to madness, here inside of your mind where the soul never rests
A place where we relive the pain of regret, you feel you can reach it
If you just close your eyes you can touch all the scars, but as you get closer they grow ever far
One deep breath, cast your soul to the winds of your past
As you soar through your mind, Bending Time
I've often felt it, I could roll back the minutes and right every wrong
The ill that I've spoken the hurt that I've caused
To me it's tragic, when the good in my life somehow fades from my mind
While wounds of transgressions reope time after time
One deep breath, cast your soul to the winds of your past
As you soar through your mind, Bending Time
4. Sleeping Dogs
My blood's been thinned down too many times
It's wise to leave things be, Don't stir up old grief
Let Sleeping Dogs lie, tonight, or suffer
The mountain tends to call me back within it's stately borders
You've got a friend in oblivion, don't be mistaken, these hills have eyes
They'll cut you down to size, cut you right down to size
Let Sleeping Dogs lie
There is no escape from here, as funny as it is tragic, this place is magnetic
Let Sleeping Dogs lie, tonight, or suffer
5. The Effigy is Real
