2. Rule the World

When a new day reaches dawn
I feel it's worth the wait
But I tumble and I fall
I'm up against my fate

When the barricades come down
I'll build them up again
When I'm just about to drown
I still don't know the end

CHORUS:
Sometimes I tremble
Like a little child
Their faces mourning
With a broken smile

Sometimes I crumble
When they're chasing through
Sometimes I feel that
I could rule the world

When the morning come's alive
Release your love brigade
At the end of day it's night
To suck it up with hate

CHORUS:
Sometimes I tremble
Like a little child
Their faces mourning
With a broken smile

Sometimes I crumble
When they're chasing through
Sometimes I feel that
I could rule the world

Rule the world

[Solo]

CHORUS:
Sometimes I tremble
Like a little child
Their faces mourning
With a broken smile

Sometimes I crumble
When they're chasing through
Sometimes I feel that
I could rule the world

(Their faces mourning
With a broken smile
Sometimes I crumble
When they're chasing through
Sometimes I feel that
I could rule the world)




3. Ghost Opera

Once in a while
When your sorrows have a name
And day is dark as night
No remorse and no redemption

Close the door
Can you hear the crowd is waiting?
For the last encore
Screaming out for my attention

Chanting my name

CHORUS:
Welcome all to curtain call
At the opera
Raging voices in my mind
Rising from the orchestra
Like a crescendo of gratitude

This is my song

Like the dead
I am on the other side
There have it in my head
No remorse and no redemption

Hush my dear
Let the music fill the night
And soon it's all we hear
Screaming out for my attention

Chanting my name
Chanting my name

CHORUS:
Welcome all to curtain call
At the opera
Raging voices in my mind
Rising from the orchestra
Like a crescendo of gratitude

Don't wake me
Until it's over
I, I may be dreaming
And awake

solo.

Chanting my name
Chanting my name

CHORUS:
Welcome all to curtain call
At the opera
Raging voices in my mind
Rising from the orchestra

Welcome all to curtain call
At the opera
Raging voices in my mind
Rising from the orchestra




4. The Human Stain

See the cemetary sky
The problem red and deep
Watch the oceans rising high
It's the human stain

Talk about the growing hunger
Ask why we're deep concerned
Don't you think the human races
Sees ashly vain

CHORUS:
Well, it hurts to
A alive, my friend
In the summer time the drift
Will pass you by

Don't you wish you
We're a child again
Just for a minute
Just for a minute

Hear the ticking of a clock
The sound of life itself
No one really wants to die
To save the world

Tell me that your torn asunder
From how we fade to learn
And tell me if the Earth goes under
Where's your anger now

CHORUS:
So it hurts to
Be alive, my friend
In this masquerade where
All one day must die

Don't you wish you
We're a born again
Just for a minute
Just for a minute

solo.

Tick-Tack
The ticking at the tear asunder
The beating from a heart of stone
The lust of your devoidless sparity

CHORUS:
'Cause it costs to
Be alive, my friend
And this life fits someone
Many glee to you

Last to press your pain
Minute by minute
You beg for a minute




5. Blücher

Dim is the light of a war day
In the land of the undying sun
Hollow the silence around me
Distant the sound of a gun

Port side is close to the shore
I wonder where she is
Incoming shot cross the bow
Will she remember me

Vail my april moon
God forsaken soul
I remember you
Come with me tonight

Damned is the dawn of a war day
Revelations of dead and despair
Frost misty waters around me
Frantic and naked the fear

Port side is close to the shore
Incoming shot cross the bow

Say your prayers
Loud and clearly
All who still believe in god




6. Love You to Death

When they met she was fifteen
Like a black rose blooming wild
And she already knew she was gonna die

"What's tomorrow without you?
This is our last goodbye"

She got weaker every day
As the autumn leaves flew by
Until one day, she told him, "This is when I die"

"What was summer like for you?"
She asked him with a smile
"What's tomorrow without you?"
He silently replied

She said,

"I will always be with you
I'm the anchor of your sorrow
There's no end to what I'll do
Cause I love you, I love you to death"

But the sorrow went too deep
The mountain fell too steep
And the wounds would never heal
Cause the pain of the loss was more than he could feel

He said,

"I will always be with you
By the anchor of my sorrow
All I know, or ever knew,
Is I love you, I love you to death"

"What's tomorrow without you?
Is this our last goodbye?"

[Solo]

"I will always be with you
I'm the anchor of your sorrow
There's no end to what I'll do
Cause I love you"




7. Up Through the Ashes

So you can hear
They claim with conviction
You've got a crowd

So what's your appeal
Your voice, your predictions
They're getting loud

But if I let you die, you must forgive me

Raise me up, up through the ashes
Take me on, into the light

You want to die
Create a sensation
Be makin' the news

An eye for an eye
Mocking our creation
Can you reduce

Before I let you die, you must forgive me

Raise me up, up through the ashes
Take me on, into the light

[Solo]

Give a sign of remorse
(I don't need your blood)
You will hang on the cross
For playing god

You the people must decide
The self-proclaimed prophet, or the novice murderer
The king or the convict, it's up to you
So tell me which way to go

Raise me up, up through the ashes
Take me on, into the light
Raise me up, up through the ashes
Take me on, into the light




8. Mourning Star

Under fears you restore your beliefs,
Like an old man in church on a Sunday.
All the dirt on your elbows and knees,
Any minute you know you could die.

So come save us, turn water to wine,
Give me words, so that fact will go with them.
As I'm crossing the enemy's line,
Where the wounded and dead show the way.

(Show me the way)

Tell me when the man is gone,
Like washed away,
Make a wish beneath the mourning star.

How could there be a reason for war?
For the life of a human to suffer this?
I remember, I heard it before,
Tell me all when the new day begins.

(The new day begins)

Tell me when the man is gone,
Like washed away,
Make a wish beneath the mourning star.
When the victory is won,
The old cliché,
Underneath the same old mourning star.

(War, now tell me why)
(Cliché, you've heard all they say)
(Tell me why)

Tell me when the man is gone,
Like washed away,
Make a wish beneath the mourning star.
When the victory is won,
The old cliché,
Underneath the same old mourning star.




9. Silence of the Darkness

I don't dare to take it slowly,
Cause time may pass me by.
Restless like a newborn morning,
I am hard to satisfy.
Will you take me away?

In the silence of the darkness,
I can't pretend I'm wide awake,
Afraid I could go under.
In the silence of the darkness,
I scramble for the light of day,
But the journey never ends.

I can paint the world with flowers,
Like war by heaven's gate.
Reckless like the stormy ocean,
I could cover them with hate.
But it all sounds the same.

In the silence of the darkness,
I can't pretend I'm wide awake,
Afraid I could go under.
In the silence of the darkness,
I scramble for the light of day,
But the journey never ends.

In the silence of the darkness,
I can't pretend I'm wide awake,
Afraid I could go under.
In the silence of the darkness,
I scramble for the light of day,
But the journey never ends.




10. Anthem

What's the miracle, if life itself is not?
Who am I to praise his worth within?
I may stumble over words that I forgot,
Just as life itself will slowly begin.

Sing me a song for the mountains to move,
Sing me the anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem of life.

I'm sceptical, I like my glass of wine,
I don't know your name, or what I am to do.
One day you'll wonder why I read between the lines,
And you will sing for me, the way I sang for you.

Sing me a song for the ocean to part,
Sing me the anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem of life.

So another page is turned,
Pray I understand what's happening,
But if anything, I do know this,
I'll be the best I can.

Sing me a song like the angels rejoice,
Sing me an anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem,
Sing me the anthem of life.




11. EdenEcho

First you said that you would never leave me
Merry were my days
Then you told me life is never easy
And left without a trace

But how come I want you
Like the soil yearns for the rain

Won't you light up
Won't you light up my life
Let my soul breathe
Tell me wrong tell me right
You're my mind cage
Like a mountain far away
You were always there
Dressed in summer white

You will never know how much I miss you
Or open to my fear
Find a place I make my way through
Enter if you dare

How come I want you
Like the soil yearns for the rain

Won't you light up
Won't you light up my life
Let my soul breathe
Tell me wrong tell me right
You're my mind cage
Like a mountain far away
You were always there
Dressed in summer white

Remember my name
And paint the darkness with your light
You'll sing your song for all broken hearted
Like Eden echoes in my head
The unforgiven gave you all

Won't you light up
Won't you light up my life
Let my soul breathe
Tell me wrong tell me right
You're my mind cage
Like a mountain far away
You were always there
Dressed in summer white
