Anteroom Of Death
Written by ?

Two faced drama rebellion
Are you the Joker, King or Queen?
Place your cards as they're coming
Came to win
Lost everything
Gambling rider pull the strings
Pull them tighter
Let them in

Come and play another day
Throw your mask away
I don't care what you say
Cause your lovely words decay
Come and play another day
Welcome to the anteroom of death

Hide your conspiracies so
Who's got the keys
And who has not?
Sell your fortune to me
Cause I can still read behind all that
Burn your fingers
Trade a dream
Watch the clock as it's ticking

Come and play another day
Throw your mask away
I don't care what you say
Cause your lovely words decay
Come and play another day
Welcome to the anteroom of death

Blinded in the dark
I'm touching the scars of tainted hearts
If you're searching
Learn to see
Honesty is all you need
Take a bow
Finally

Come and play another day
Throw your mask away
I don't care what you say
Cause your lovely words decay
Come and play another day
Welcome to the anteroom of death


Until My Last Breath
Written by ?

Cannot cry it loud enough
I'm giving up this ghost
How can I still justify
When you deny my voice
In this nothing I am not allowed
I just follow alone
Words as weapons without a sound
Echoes dying unborn

Until my last breath
You'll never know
Until you feel the silence
When I am gone
Now is vanishing
Everything
What we might have been
Only now you praise
Call my name that you won't see again

Who can change this memory
Inside it needs to burn
Worship by the enemy
The guilty take their turns
Watching as it's disappearing
Shadows all that remain
Wishes slowly crossing over
In this parade of pain

Until my last breath
You'll never know
Until you feel the silence
When I am gone
Now is vanishing
Everything
What we might have been
Only now you praise
Call my name that you won't see again


I Feel Immortal
Written by Lindy Robbins / Toby Gad / Kerli Koiv / Tarja Turunen

Whenever I wake up
I'm lost and always afraid
It's never the same place
I close my eyes to escape

The walls around me
And I drift away
Inside the silence
Overtakes the pain
And in my dreams

I feel immortal
I am not scared,
No I'm not scared
I feel immortal
When I am there,
When I am there

Whenever I wake up
The shards of us cut within
Always the same day
Frozen out in the fringe

I surrender to the sleep
And leave the hurt behind me
There's no death to fear
And in my dreams

I feel immortal
I am not scared,
No I'm not scared
I feel immortal
When I am there,
When I am there

So far
Or right beside me
So close
But they can't find me
Slowly
Time forgets me
I am only
Only dreaming

Don't wake me up!


In For A Kill
Written by ?

Where do you go from here?
It's dragging you under
Nothing could be more clear
When you are the hunter
Is that a dream to die for?
A prize

You keep it
Out of the light
Nothing can shine
Left in the dark
Far from their eyes
Under black water
There is no halo
Only the hunger
And you're in for a kill

You and your twisted minds
It's making us shiver
How can we be so blind
The fear you deliver
It's all a grand illusion
A trick

You keep it
Out of the light
Nothing can shine
Left in the dark
Far from their eyes
Under black water
There is no halo
Only the hunger
And you're in for a kill


Underneath
Written by ?

Even in my darkest times
Overcome with worry
Find the comfort in the storm
No reason to be sorry
Look inside for a place to hide
All around the faithless wait full of expectations
They will never see the beauty in the imperfections
The more I show
The less they know

Out of reach
Underneath
Learned to breath
Underneath

Something inside of me invisible
Turning the fragile unbreakable
But they cannot take away
They cannot take away
What I believe
You cannot take away
Cannot take away
What's underneath

Every little cut runs deep
Masked in my tomorrow
Bringing wisdom that I need for all the time I borrow
My other side is left behind

Out of reach
Underneath
Learned to breath
Underneath

Something inside of me invisible
Turning the fragile unbreakable
But they cannot take away
They cannot take away
What I believe
You cannot take away
Cannot take away
What's underneath


Little Lies
Written by ?

Take my faith with an open hand and warm embrace
My confidant
Use my words
Take the good away and leave the worst to sell me out

Little lies
Little lies
Making up tragedies
Nothing is as it seems
Who cares what is real
Little lies
Little lies
Only to entertain
The message is the same for those who believe

Feed the flames
Empty wishes with no room to blame
My sacrifice
Deep inside
There is nothing left to stand behind
But

Little lies
Little lies
Making up tragedies
Nothing is as it seems
Who cares what is real
Little lies
Little lies
Only to entertain
The message is the same for those who believe

Little Lies
Little lies
Nothing is what it seems


Rivers Of Lust
Written by ?

Violent hands come at midnight
Hold me down
I can't make a sound
In their arms
Still unwanted
Crave the child
Be forever wiled

Stranger, danger
Release me

Mercy's hiding
It let me go
Hurts to know
Mercy's watching
Watching me drowning
In rivers of lust

Morning sun
Break the shelter
Turn back time
Wash away my crime

Betrayer, slayer
Release me

Mercy's hiding
It let me go
Hurts to know
Mercy's watching
Watching me drowning
In rivers of lust

Found at noon
Clutching still the stone


Dark Star
Written by ?

Burning out in the distance you're falling
Starting to fade
Light is condemned to be tied down by gravity close to the end
Do you still remember?
Before the weight that pulled you under
Dared you to rise

Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all
You are a dark star

Empty
Is never enough
You keep clawing for what you can't reach
Smothering space filled without any grace and I can't breathe
Nothing lasts forever
Even the stars will loose their luster returning to dust

Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all
You are a dark star


Falling Awake
Written by Johnny Andrews / Tarja Turunen

Phantom voices with no words to follow
At the mercy of the cold and hollow
I withdrew into my sanctuary of silence
My defence

In this moment I am just becoming
Liberated from my cell of nothing
No sensation there was only breathing
Overcome oblivion

Falling Awake
From a walking sleep
And all that remains
Is the dying memory
And now I can dive for
these dreams I make
Like I am Falling
I am falling awake

Waves of melodies once forgotten
like a symphony across the ocean
Never knew that they could hear my calling
deep within
crashing
rushing in
like falling

Falling Awake
From a walking sleep
And all that remains
Is the dying memory
And now I can dive for
these dreams I make
Like I am Falling
I am falling awake

There is no returning to that emptiness, loneliness
The dream that lives inside of me won't fade away, it's wide awake

Falling Awake
From a walking sleep
And all that remains
Is the dying memory
And now I can dive for
these dreams I make
Like I am Falling
I am falling awake


The Archive Of Lost Dreams
Written by ?

Far from the light to reach beneath a veil of mist
Countless stories were left to rest in peace

Darkened and calm the grave uncared
Once a haven filled with hope, the archive of lost dreams

We send our inner fears for the ocean to score
Waiting it takes them all away from the shore

Deepest beliefs from billions of souls
Longing for our wishes to find a way back home

Aah...Naiad
The last one in the unknown
The keeper of our written dreams

Aah...Promises
None of them were left behind
She blessed them with her kiss

See.
Hear and feel
The miracle of life
Believe the signs and trust you'll stay alive
Descend to find the depth of your heart

Mysterious Naiad
Now the circle's closed forever
Aah...Naiad
The archive is gone
We are on our own


Crimson Deep
Written by ?

Sometimes I see the pulse
numb I feel, so unreal.
Blood on my lips I taste the heavy lead.
What can I find behind the mirror,
I'll never know.
Who's the reflection within?

Should I frame for you the other world?
Another world?
I've heard the voices of Elysium.
The scent of a sudden wish,
never there, everywhere.
Read me the space in-between.

Come to me
I cried
I need you.
I am seeking the gates unfold inside
my lost soul in the dark.
Far beneath my breath
I'm burning at my core.
Show me how let me see beyond
I will find my Crimson Deep

Sharp is the edge of all discovery,
now I see.
A scar without suffering, impossible.
I'll wait until my last day with no shame.
Who's to blame?
Shaping the signs left for me.

Come to me
I cried
I need you.
I am seeking the gates unfold inside
my lost soul in the dark.
Far beneath my breath
I'm burning at my core.
Show me how let me see beyond
I will find my Crimson Deep


We Are
Written by ?

How cold is the heart
My world is on fire
How deep is the mark
When you leave and your dream turn to water
I let myself feel
I'm wishing for something real

We are
We are
Chasing a shadow
We are
We are
Lost in the shame
You try to hide only to reach out
It's too late

With a smile you move on
Every fear left unspoken
There was hope
Now it's gone
So believe there is love in the open
You just have to let go and turn into something real

We are
We are
Chasing a shadow
We are
We are
Lost in the shame
You try to hide only to reach out
It's too late

Break the shade
See your hate
Black flames
No names
Who are you?
Janette said.

We are
We are
Chasing a shadow
We are
We are
Lost in the shame
You try to hide only to reach out
It's too late


Naiad
Written by Torsten Stenzel / Angela Heldmann / Adrian Zagoritis / Tarja Turunen

She hears the distant soft caress
There in the gloom
Colours surround with tenderness
Guiding her through
In the forgotten sweet abyss
Another sound
Twilight floating memories always without

Gloaming there above the surface
An illusion reaching down for me

What lies beneath
Beyond the ocean's door
Tranquil is the kiss of the azure rising deep
Sleeping ever more
Naiad's mystery
What lies beneath

Guarding their immorality
Saints in the sand
Stranger than beautiful eerie
An ancient land
Circle of 16 turned to stone and still they keep
Shimmering crystal promises one space between

Gloaming there above the surface
An illusion reaching down for me

What lies beneath
Beyond the ocean's door
Tranquil is the kiss of the azure rising deep
Sleeping ever more
Naiad's mystery
What lies beneath

Beyond the ocean's door
Tranquil is the kiss of the azure rising deep
Sleeping ever more
Naiad's mystery
What lies beneath

Aah...

Breathing the newborn waves
Kneeling for the sea she became


Still Of The Night
Whitesnake cover

In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the Still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me what's in store
My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
An' I can't take no more, no, no

Now I just wanna get close to you
An' taste your love so sweet
An' I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the Still of the Night
In the Still of the Night

In the heat of the day
I hang my head down low
An' hide my face from the sun
Thru the light of the day
Until the evening time
I'm waiting for the night to come

In the Still of the Night
In the cool moonlight
I feel my heart is aching
In the Still of the Night

In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the Still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

Now I just wanna get close to you
An' taste your love so sweet
An' I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the Still of the Night


If You Believe
Written by Torsten Stenzel / Angela Heldmann / Adrian Zagoritis / Tarja Turunen

Drifting, words without meaning
Twisting, through the dark concealing
Search again
Your reflection lives within

Shade in the labyrinth
The path lies ahead

If you believe
Truth her name is honesty
Let her shine through your darkest temptation
Hidden deep
In sincerity,
With your painted smile
So revealing
Tarnished,
Yet there's no fear in me
Feeding the flower that dies
Is a ray of light
A ray of light

Roaming, colours they were sleeping
Senses, they are never-ending
Find again the beauty in the suffering

Shade in the labyrinth
The path lies ahead

If you believe
Truth her name is honesty
Let her shine through your darkest temptation
Hidden
Deep, insincerity,
With your painted smile
So revealing
Tarnished,
Yet there's no fear in me
Feeding the flower that dies
Is a ray of light
A ray of light
