2.	Silent Breathing Darkness 04:43	lyrics	buy track
I am the only light in the dark of night. (I creep into your mind, into your soul, I feed on your fear) Am I alive or dead? I'm running away from the abyss. (I'll catch you anywhere, you can't refuse my call.) I can feel it through the night, it brings silence and decay, His step is growing gently, slaying what is near. Freedom, that is all we chase, the only thing we care. I feel its claws on my skin. Running among all these dying trees I cannot see any horizon. Something unseen scares me again, spreads its wings, flies over me. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide; no Hell nor Paradise. Something is chasing me, something is laughing… I belong to this. I spent years pretending, rejecting your call but in the end you came to whisper my name. It’s the silent breathing darkness. Drowning in blindness. The sky becomes black. And suddenly, this strange place starts to be like home (I’ve come to you Kneel before my ancient crown) So, is this the time to leave it all behind? (Your last breaths feed my breath!) Abandoned but safe in the arms of my fate. Running among all these grey dead trees My very last breath is forever gone I no longer feel any fear… And the darkness takes me with it. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide; no Hell nor Paradise. Something is chasing me, something is laughing… I belong to this. I spent years pretending, rejecting your call but in the end you came to whisper my name. It’s the silent breathing darkness.
3.	Checkmate! 05:28	lyrics	buy track
Between these white walls, closed in my own world, I bite the dust again, to be someone. A bunch of promises, words of hope and smiles …so false and liar. Get out of my way, now! I buried my dreams, again, close to an end. All I’ve created seems fading away. Is there a reason to do this one more time? Every step that I take seems always meaningless. You, hear these words, my friend. Don’t ever play these games with me again. I’m not a pawn that you can move. Checkmate, my friend! You are done. My hope’s alive, now more than ever I’m picking up pieces of a broken dream You can’t destroy what I am breathing for, you are not what I need in my life. I didn't know it yet, but I had sold my soul to a thousand demons, but I'm taking it back. No one and nothing can stop me on my path, chasing that light glow, straight to the end. You, hear these words, my friend. Don’t ever play these games with me again. I’m not a pawn that you can move. Checkmate, my friend! You are done. My hope’s alive, now more than ever I’m picking up pieces of a broken dream You can’t destroy what I am breathing for, you are not what I need in my life. My hope’s alive, now more than ever I’m picking up pieces of a broken dream You can’t destroy what I am breathing for, you are not what I need in my life.
4.	Timeless Illusion 06:24	lyrics	buy track
Here, in this troubled times I feel all is lost, it’s like a lightning striking my cold brain. For whom I’m fighting for, for what of all my dreams? My path is covered by the dust of thoughts. Timeless memories, ghosts that I can’t slay, coming back again, entering my soul. They feed on the power of mind, they play with your fears. An infinite darkness before my eyes. Timeless illusions, forsaken old nightmares. The cross I’ve to carry… demons with no mercy. Sometimes I see the road to run away from pain, is it reality or fantasy? So, nothing matters, I’ve to try to walk that way, No more questions are needed now. Shadows make grow seeds of pricking madness, frozen and trapped in the memories coil. I’m blinded by my pain. A wall between the mind and the world. Thoughts become fire, carved in time. Timeless illusions, forsaken old nightmares. The cross I’ve to carry… demons with no mercy. Timeless illusions, forsaken old nightmares. The cross I’ve to carry… demons with no mercy. Timeless illusion. Timeless illusion.
5.	Through the Mirror 07:03	lyrics	buy track
I am still looking at the mirror, all my hopes were lost, but for once I tried to react by closing my eyes and opening them some seconds later… nothing changed, and all is the same. A swansong’s growing in my head, a soundless cry for everything that’s wrong, and I can hear the echoes of the end. The mirror always tells the truth, but now we’re here to change this. What it’s showing is as wrong as the world we’re living in. There’s a void beyond this glass wall… please don’t be afraid. and we’ll be ready for this battle when the shadows fall down. Sometimes we are indifferent, watching the world slowly dying, and therefore we ask ourselves: what we can do? You’re scared to lose the faith, because she always held up you. You’re scared to hide your wrath within, when she feeds on you. The mirror always tells the truth, but now we’re here to change this. What it’s showing is as wrong as the world we’re living in. There’s a void beyond this glass wall… please don’t be afraid. and we’ll be ready for this battle when the shadows fall down. Someone’s calling me, for the fallen tears. Tormenting screams resound in the silence around me. From the mirror the souls are crying, praying for an end, lost in anger and pain… it’s time to rise. Please, be proud, you did everything you could. How much time? For long time the same old story will go on. And everyday I wake up hoping in a change. But the mirror, maybe, will tell the truth forever... The mirror always tells the truth, but now we’re here to change this. What it’s showing is as wrong as the world we’re living in. There’s a void beyond this glass wall… please don’t be afraid. and we’ll be ready for this battle when the shadows fall down. Someone’s calling me, for the fallen tears. Tormenting screams resound in the silence around me. From the mirror the souls are crying, praying for an end, lost in anger and pain… it’s time to rise. Take a look at the mirror, Don’t you dare to hide.
6.	Demons 05:14	lyrics	buy track
Something is here, creeping and silent, hidden inside your intentions. Red bloody eyes, slayed desires, condemned to their own existence. You’re gonna unleash the beats of your heart, you’re going out of control. The game is over, your demons are rising, bending the bars of your mind. Demons – Hidden and caged deep inside, demons – are breaking their hard chains to rise, demons – I cannot stand this unfair crime, demons – God, can you hear my cry? Like raged dogs pouncing on preys, infected and blinded by anger. You cannot stop them, you cannot fight against who feeds on your soul. They burn inside, straight to my heart, leaving my ashes alive. Here I will lie, this graveyard of reason. This is my own sacrifice. Demons – Hidden and caged deep inside, demons – are breaking their hard chains to rise, demons – I cannot stand this unfair crime, demons – God, can you hear my cry? Demons – Hidden and caged deep inside, demons – are breaking their hard chains to rise, demons – I cannot stand this unfair crime, demons – God, can you hear my cry?
