You see me standing here a shadow of the night
I'm feeling lost and scared this world is so dark
I need a change now, want the pain to fade away
Trying to find a path to a place that feels so right
Through the trees
Dark meets the dawn
Then I saw the first light
Through the trees
Dark meets the dawn
Then I saw the first light!
Past events did happen or we wouldn't have today
I'm feeling grateful for memories that can decay
I've made mistakes now, no I dont regret my sins
Finally I have found a place to feel alive

Empowered

Deep, deep down, deep down below, under the surface
Break, break down, break down the walls, release me
Open the door, keep the key,
For this is who I'm meant to be
Feel empowered, feel the light, this is right
Be, be yourself, be your real self, true identity
Take, take down, take down the mask, neurodiversity

Shadow of a Ghost

Living in a shadow of a ghost
The one you all love the most
Paint a perfect picture
One they can not hear
Let's forget the bad parts
Like they never faltered
Like they never faltered
Don't disgrace the dead
Just shame us all instead
Shame us all instead
Life is for the living
Life is for the living
Living in a shadow of a ghost
It's not fair to compare I'll never be her
I am me, can't you see I'm proud to be
If you could see the wounds that you all create
Living in the past, give me a chance
Give me a chance
Never feeling good enough
Haunted heartache
It does not go away
Every comment you make
Self esteem chips away
Self esteem chips away
Don't disgrace the dead
Just torture me instead
Torture me instead
I can't look at her face
Don't think I can do this
Living in a shadow of a ghost

Soul Shine
03:12

Look at yourself, what you lack
Makes you energy sap
Feed off hate, feed off the fight
Energy vampire... vampire
Negative, so toxic
Pull you down, keep you there
You're such a drain
It's me you blame
Drive me insane
Let my wings fly, soul shine
This life is mine, soul shine
Soul shine!
Don't you change me, don't kill my fire
Can't dim my shine, my shine
My shine!
Don't tear me down, I'll cut you out
Out of my life...my life
It makes me strong, don't get me wrong
Don't guilt trip... guilt trip me
Exaggerate, irritate
Pull me down, keep me there
You're such a drain
It's me you blame
Drive me insane

Daemon Inside
04:50
|
|

I'm on self destruct, I'm stuck in a rut
My brain keeps telling me, I'm not good enough
Need to hide, the daemon inside
Evil voices that make me cry at night
Great time, to be alive
This monster wants me to die
World's a better place without me alive
No place to hide, trapped in my own mind
Self criticize, or telling me lies
It's hard to find the truth, but I need to survive
Try to hide, the daemon inside
My own worst enemy, it's killing me
. . .
Daemon inside
Daemon inside
Daemon inside
Goodbye to the daemon inside!

Sirens
04:01

It was dark, I followed the stars
To a new place that's calling my name
I thought, they'd keep me safe
But the stars, they begin to fade
The fog, the fog sets in
And a chill that takes my breath away
I can feel a storm coming
That will change our world forever
When those sirens sound
I see you lying there
Sirens are the sound
Of my nightmare
I wake, so cold and still
How did this happen to me
They break our hearts
To see the wreckage left behind
Their cries, I hear their cries
I feel the fear rise in my eyes
Used to think they sung so sweetly
But look at this life they have stolen from me
When those sirens sound
I see there's blood in your hair
Sirens re-awaken
My nightmare
When those sirens sound
I see you lying there
Sirens are the sound
Of my nightmare
When those sirens sound
I see there's blood in your hair
Sirens re-awaken
My nightmare

Pandora's Lullaby
02:09
|
|

Try to fight not to peak inside
Scared of what you'll find
You will see the reason why
Some things should stay locked away
Go to sleep Pandora, Pandora
Don't disturb Pandora, Pandora

Trinity

Strange world, different to what we know
Keep others safe, invisible foe
We fight as one, war can be won
What we had, not for granted
Hold my hand by you I stand
Strong together, strong in numbers
With support, love for each other
We Trinity
Hold my hand by you I stand
Pillars of hope, pillars of power
Bound together, with love and desire
We Trinity
Cruel world, not fair for everyone
Out of our control, invisible foe
We fight as one, war can be won
What we had, not for granted
War can be won

So dark, eyes wide open, night has spoken
So dark, my life-force fades away
So cold, ice is burning, I feel I’m turning
So cold, my life-force slips away
The last beat of our hearts, our last moments together
Before we can ascend, into skies filled with aether
We’re as bright as the stars, that will burn for millennia
These souls never will part, the last beat of our hearts
So sharp, passions soaring, minds exploring
So sharp, the taste is so divine
So far, I feel I’m falling, I hear you calling
So far, eternity awaits
