Snow 04:05
Wake, ghost of my dream It’s been dire since you left me on my knees Wake, I’m tired and thin Snow has fallen off the land we had concealed But if you track me down far on this distant shore You’ll ignite hopes that will make me roar Play me right, serve me a better game And snow will cover all the blame Stand, grace of the earth Where you’ve wandered, foxes cry for your return All the things you did, they made me feel concerned So if you track me down far on this distant shore You’ll ignite hopes that will make me roar Play me right, serve me a better game And snow will cover all the blame Come, answer my call My intention’s pure and matches all your thoughts Come, stagger and reach… Snow will make the best of past and future dreams Track me down… Play me right…

I left in the cold When the heavens were told About my past What made me outcast Lost, shunning the world Shunning rumour that swirled Around my deeds I was looking for leads Obliterate the leaves, the roots and the branches They can no longer part my stumbling heart I don’t bother the pain, just cut inside my brain I have become hostile to the longing smile. Talks go on about Where a soul goes when out, Sinning away In an appalling way I can’t forget your eyes When you switched hands in mine They haunt my days Obliterate the leaves, the roots and the branches They can no longer part my stumbling heart I don’t bother the pain, just cut inside my brain I have become hostile to the longing smile. I wasn’t strong enough to decide Between youth and light And now, I just want to forget These memories I sweat I wasn’t strong enough to decide Between youth and light And now, I’m about to forget These memories I sweat I can’t help but think I was right Though you chose fate to rewrite I won’t live up this undeserved fame That should praise your name

Dove down the waterfall Oh it was colourful My mind was shaken by the embrace of its arms For days, I stayed away To disarm your dismay When all you wanted was to guide this gutless heart Fill my lungs with memories you hold I want to know the substance of your soul So show my eyes the glory and the flaws I will rise to the challenge Swam deeper and deeper Through heavier water I felt unsure as how to deal with what I’d find Finally reached the deck Of this unstable wreck A voice called me as I strove to walk inside Fill my lungs with memories you hold I want to know the substance of your soul So show my eyes the glory and the flaws I had drowned my desire in devious water The fall washed me clean, smothered up my sins Fill my lungs with memories you hold I want to know the substance of your soul So show my eyes the glory and the flaws I will rise to the challenge

Still I Rise 04:43
I want you to know That I’m sorry My mistakes have grown More than my eyes have seen We lived in a time Blessed by innocence We’d tease and we’d laugh Bound by some inner sense I was led to dive In a sea of lies Must be absolved fast Before it’s too late And soon, came and stood An inflamer of all I felt like I could Make the land sing in awe I was led to dive In a sea of lies Must be absolved fast Before it’s too late I was led to dive In a sea of lies My skin trembles with fright It’s all pouring out Tame the fear that drew near In my head Tame the fear that drew near In my head I was a fool to be so blind I should have reasoned my desire Oh so young, oh so wise Still I rise, still I rise

Redempter 05:26
There is a storm inside my mind Rumbling echoes from the past. I sought adventure To the breaking point. Bless you, Redempter and behold. There is a storm inside my mind. It feels as if it’s gonna be the last. When they burn my name, Never say it ‘loud. I just need to live in your heart. Dance me away to better scenes and sights. I will not yield so long as you be mine. The void grows deep as stars wear out. I may be wrong to linger by your side. When my way is shown, Lay some flowers down. But I don’t need the throne of your heart. Dance me away to better scenes and sights. I will not yield so long as you be mine. You’ll break the bond when everything is quiet. The thread is thin, we don’t have much time.
