(M & L: Thomas Eriksson)
You thought you knew what I was all about A smile on your face but you're drowning in lies You stole my heaven and put me through hell One of us must go down, Well I'm not the one (BRIDGE) They try to push me over the edge But you know in the end they failed I'll live my life until it's over (CHORUS) You have not lived the life I've lived Your words couldn't mean a thing Don't care what you think, keep it to yourself And let me be all I could ever be Although you try you cannot bring me down I'm free in my will and I bow down to none You sinful ways must now come to an end I am the one of a kind and I'll never die |

(M & L: Thomas Eriksson)
Take the time to realize what we have done We're standing on the edge of desperation We've been blind by staring right into the burning sun Yet pray to Heaven's might for our salvation (BRIDGE) It seems we've used up all her trust We burned our bridges and turned our future to dust (CHORUS) Bring me back to the times, back when the future looked good Finding signs of the cross, we probably would Let me stand on the shore, breathe in the fresh magic air We fear that it's too late but that's the cross we bear Sowing seeds of pure minstreat we cannot take Our children reap the harvest in another day She just fades away unless we try to put an end to this disease And bring the lost disciples right down to their kness Don't let us leave it all behind A war for all mankind Oh can't you see, tomorrow is our destiny |

[M: Thomas Eriksson, L: Peter Johansson & Thomas Eriksson]
Magic rides to the future king The Gods of war sent all their sins While the dragons still flying He saw his warriors dying Forever he keeps his heart warm of desire and hope Fighting the shadowlands mighty storm [CHORUS] All alone on his throne holding powers unkown Seeking wisdom of Gods and the will to carry on In his eyes you can see he's his own enemy Behold King of Tragedy In his castle of ancient times Overlooking horizons wide The angel of his life he though he'd found But tragedy was set to be abound Her heart was the one thing she could never give to him Lonely as so many times before... Alone with his mighty golden sword He will conquer and be the lord Obey the King of your land And fight the blood from your hand [FINAL CHORUS] Once he ruled all his lands with a firm ironhand Not a queen by his side never knew the reason why At the end of the tale I now finally see That the Tragic King is me All alone on my throne once held powers so strong Seeked for wisdom of Gods and the will to carry on In my eyes you can see peaceful rest finally Behold King of Tragedy |

(M: Axenstar, L: Magnus and Thomas Eriksson)
Thousand miles away I see the light of day A day that knows no tomorrow Distant memories are buried in the past They only bring me pain and sorrow (BRIDGE) A story not yet told Facing a wall of silence (CHORUS) The scars I have inside of me never leaving me alone Forcing me to be on my own trusting no one but myself I'm trapped in a barren reality where nothing ever stays the same Trusting you was my last mistake but the scars they will remain Many years have past and the soul never last Tearing a hole in my heart Falling down through life I'll never be the same Sleeping while my mind rips apart See myself living a lie inside a castle of treachery The future's wide open for me but I walk down a dead end street Feeling the demons arise my body is numb from the unspeakable fear But still I cannot face the real me |

On a stormy winter's morning When the snow was falling like diamonds so bright They came for her, my precious angel My heart's now dressed in darkest black With the silence of the nighfall I made my way through it all The moonlight is guiding my way to her [BRIDGE] Embraced in the veil of night Where the shadows lose their beauty so fast Let the beast inside of your heart tempt you, please you too As the mistery uncovers Will I find the key to unlock this dream? Enraged with hate, a burning embers I'll slay them all for this dreadful crime With the sanctity of the last hour Now the Reaper's riding right next by my side His black eyes awaiting another death [CHORUS] She led you that lake Where thousand tears are flowing This enchatment you have to break Or else all will be lost Voices are calling to stand up for your own Make yourself ready to fight And keep in mind that you are her only hope Burning like fire for the only one, my soul [FINAL CHORUS] She led you that lake Where thousand tears are flowing This enchatment you have to break Or else all will be lost Voices are calling to stand up for your own Make yourself ready to fight And keep in mind that you are her only hope Burning like fire for thee Yearning desire |

Far away from twilight I'm searching for my soul But still I can't find what I've journeyed for All the distant places I've passed along my way They seem to be fading with the remnants of the day [BRIDGE] See me now with the tears in my eyes Hear my sight as I reach out for the light [CHORUS] So conquer the world in the afterlife Peace now for my soul A new revelation has just begun Secrets left untold Crossed the fields of sadness and oceans of true love Now I enter the realm of the dark beyond Embraced within the powers I've longed for all these years Redemption must be close at hand to wash away my fears [CHORUS] So conquer the world in the afterlife Peace now for my soul A new revelation has just begun Secrets soon I know Fire in my eyes, I feel the pain inside that's ripping in my entity Do I believe what I see? And so many times I have failed to pass this test of faith But now it's my turn, the rest of the world shall burn! Far away from twilight you're searching for your soul But still you can't find what you've journeyed for? When you're on that journey just like me some times ago Remember what the wise men said: "Go, follow your heart all the way!" [BRIDGE] See me now with the tears in my eyes Hear my cry to the sky as I reach out for the light [CHORUS] So conquer the world in the afterlife Peace now for my soul A new revelation has just begun Secrets now I know |

Forgive me father, for I have sinned But that's just my way and I know I will win Years spent in waiting for final attack My powers are stronger there's no turning back [BRIDGE] When you stand at the gates Take control of your fate [CHORUS] Time is never on your side Open your eyes to find whatever lies behind When your candle starts to fade Confess thy sins or you will forever burn The path you've chosen will lead you straight To my reign of damnation, just cross the last lake The final chapter is written and done I now have your soul, do you still think you've won? |

Just as I predicted it would go We will never see the light again Is this what all belived in? Our future has lost its meaning And will be put to sleep [CHORUS] Now it all seems so clear We shouldn't have let our dreams disappear And the end is so near Perpetual twilight is here Now the day we all feared is here The time has come to shed your final tears The sun once so brightly shining Has lost its glow - ever dying Like the rest of mankind The sky is soon burning and we stand awaiting our fate No one to save us, our heavenly father awaits Death from above, reign of terror has come upon you We are the ones, damned for all time, see what's become of our lives So now we write the final epitaph Close your eyes and slip away in time The strength of our nuclear powers Destroyed us from now and ever Now we will find our peace |
