1. The Abyss

3. And Rainbows Fall Unseen
4. The Oncoming Tide
5. Fait Accompli
6. The Last Candle







1. The Abyss

And so we leave our mighty dreams
still hard to cover
World don't mean a thing
when life's one darkest hour
Forgotten promises fall without reason... Maybe we seem strong
with mask torn down all lose their power
Stars won't shine so bright
courting death - our last lover
All's lost and wasted in forsaken vision...
On quest for joy pretending's the art
See the actor die in his best part
Is anguish that we feel the greatest attraction
How death is charming our poor lives Bridge:
His days are nearly over
but still he tries to understand
Every tear he had to bury
Every grave in no man's land
Chorus:
Old man dies [is dying]
alone in bed where all his life [denying]
he used to cry, he used to hide
fears of tomorrow, gray shades of old sorrow
Believe me my friend, life's not fair
when everything you cling to
every dream that seems true
is just a castle in the air Forgotten promises fall without reasons
All feelings cast away on the island of treason
Storm in his mind he can't find the decision
All's lost and wasted in forsaken vision Bridge
Chorus




2. Wings We Burnt In Silence

Forgive me all poets of sadness
crying prophets of black days
I thought your laments were so empty
till I was lost in endless haze Come to join the world
the world of the insane
All tickets have been sold
though show remains the same
Here inside my mind
this mind that needs no blame
I've turned the planet upside - down
I am fool in wisdom's name Bridge:
And so we pretend this all was meant to be
denying imagination of the past
But if we create our own destiny
why do we cut its wings burning 'em so fast
Chorus:
Behold the scars we hide inside us
that no one ever dares to show
Remains of wings we burnt in silence
then buried 'neath the coldest snow
And when the heat of circumstances
dissolves these headstones into tears
All ancient wounds are resurrected
they weep out loud but no one hears Somehow it returns in my sleep
it comes to dig my grave so deep
And I can not close an eye
as the morning's getting near
Nightmares are crawling look how their mean
in twilight of hypnotic scene
Be careful what you fear of
it may become so real
Bridge
Chorus So welcome to my world
Yes, I'm your lord my friend
Whole story has been told
Who wants to hear it once again
Deep inside this mind
The hall of foolish flame
See the smile of the dying clown
This rainbow falls - no gold to claim




3. And Rainbows Fall Unseen

Some people fly too high
up to rainbows in the sky
They pretend it's not so far
in the eye of the storm And when the heaven's getting near
there's a call that you must hear
As you're rising to the sun
it's melting wax on your wings
I see you fall...
[...and sometimes it feels really bad
it's like losing things that we've never had
all those words we can't leave behind
like magic found but left unsaid ] Look there is nothing to do for my world
You say there's nothing more your world can give me
Against all this time I'm fighting the years
I'm calling your name but I know you can't hear me
When sleep comes I see it before my eyes
I once had it all
I wonder if so lost we'll ever find
what we are looking for
Bridge:
If this moment was a lifetime
and this rhyme was my last breath
I would know that thought of dying
is not the reason of this sad
And what good's a rainbow without the pot of gold
what good is a dream I can not hold Chorus:
Standing here I'm trying to save
memories we can't escape
Take me to all the places that we have been
where no rainbow falls unseen
Bridge
Chorus




4. The Oncoming Tide

Step with me into a dream
where nightmares are too real
And the moon will send its shadows
on everything you feel The burden of our lives -
dreams and wisdom pay the price
The cost of going on ...
I caught the tears of nevermore
I heard all prayers you never dared to say
I'm pain that will arrive
The dawn of your final day Bridge:
I'm your pride
I'm your rage and war
I'm the reason of your fall
Your end after all
Chorus:
Those who died to find a clue
deep in the ground they're trapped in their silence
as they know that I am you I know you're waiting me
Don't need a prophet to see I'm the only way
No flood or tragedy
I'm your madness and world's my prey
Bridge
Chorus When the skies will be falling
in the cry of last child born
You'll be cloning all gods waiting
they shall quiet the storm
My tide is coming on -
a wicked way of telling you
that man has gone too far Chorus




5. Fait Accompli

Nearness of death hangs like the storm clouds
over my head, the blood on my hands Wrong time at wrong place
Why Am I here
I can't explain what happened
Can it be real
See what I don't have to see
it changes my plans
One senseless accident
no fall from grace My destiny is kind of strange to me / alea iacta est
Murder or witness, blind eyes to see
New crown of thorns adorns my head / I'm innocent
Blood runs cold and sky is burning red
Bridge:
Where is my truth, where is the justice
I ask in my mind, God tell me why
Reflection of my past life
Do I have much time Chorus:
I see the light in the end of the line
beyond the border of night
Hope's still alive
I trust forever till the final moment of my life
Cold of this cell takes my breath away
Have I right to live for one more day
Who'll give the helping hand and give me strength to survive
Is here a chance to win this useless fight Bridge
Chorus
No one will bow before my throne of pain
Desperation surrounds me again
Laughing of death I still hear in my ears
Fait Accompli, who'll return all these wasted years




6. The Last Candle
