WALK WITH ME
Instrumental
OVERCOMETH
You used to hide behind your shadow
Never knowing what could have been
Dreams are crushed by your past
Soul abandoned, outcast
Standing on the edge of darkness
Too many unforgiving years
The time has come to be relentless
Overcome your deepest fears
You lived your life like it was over
Taunting voices held you down
Dreams are crushed by your past
Soul abandoned, outcast
Standing on the edge of darkness
Too many unforgiving years
The time has come to be relentless
Overcome your deepest fears
Lost all control of your life
Shameless soul, end this strife
Leave your past to die
Standing on the edge of darkness
Too many unforgiving years
The time has come to be relentless
Overcome your deepest fears
HIGHER PURPOSE
I’ve come to find
Illusions of what seems real
So hard to see
But destiny’s calling
The path is clear
To a distant and unknown world
A fate to hold
Yet we’re constantly seeking
Reaching for a higher purpose
Bleeding but I won’t give in
You know the struggles that I’ve faced
But I won’t give in
Reaching for a higher purpose
Bleeding but I won’t give in
You know the struggles that I’ve faced
No, I won’t give in
Visions of light
Pierce right through my soul
Prophetic dreams
Awakens the beast
Reaching for a higher purpose
Bleeding but I won’t give in
You know the struggles that I’ve faced
But I won’t give in
Reaching for a higher purpose
Bleeding but I won’t give in
You know the struggles that I’ve faced
No, I won’t give in
Spirit of life, I can’t deny
Open my eyes, desire
Reaching for a higher purpose
Bleeding but I won’t give in
You know the struggles that I’ve faced
But I won’t give in
Reaching for a higher purpose
Bleeding but I won’t give in
You know the struggles that I’ve faced
No, I won’t give in
YOUR HAND I STILL HOLD
Beginning
Is coming
The final chapter to open
Just one more
Step closer
Trying to keep my composure
Across the way
I heard you say
You’re never alone
Time slips away
Everything fades
Your hand I still hold
Believing
Not knowing
Wellspring of life’s overflowing
Stars align
Souls collide
Greater than seventy lifetimes
Across the way
I heard you say
You’re never alone
Time slips away
Everything fades
Your hand I still hold
This new life
This new dream
Makes every second worth living
Just one more
Day closer
Together as we cross over
Across the way
I heard you say
We’re never alone
Time slips away
Everything fades
Your hand I still hold
THE HEALING II
Instrumental
INTO TWILIGHT
It seems that all was for nothing
Only to dwell in this place again
Could only dream to be something
Imagine life finding peace with-
Into twilight, you will find
Darkest corners of your mind
Restless spirit speaks to you
Yearning to create anew
Harsh winter’s always the season
Devours beauty that might have been
Fallen for no rhyme or reason
The time for rebirth starts from with-
Into twilight, you will find
Darkest corners of your mind
Restless spirit speaks to you
Yearning to create anew
Shadows appearing with no end in sight
Close in with all of their might
End of this journey reveals the unknown
Pulling your sword from the stone
It seems like all was for nothing
Only to dwell in this place again
Could only dream to be something
Imagine life finding peace within
JAI YEN YEN ใจเย็นๆ
This endless fight
It ends tonight
It’s one you’ll never win
Trapped in your mind
Always behind
ไม่เป็นไรใจเย็นๆ (Mai bpen rai jai yen yen)
Act out of spite
Set to ignite
Mad creature raises its head again
Not everyone
Under the sun
Is out to get you or do you in
Get in your face
They’ll find their place
Rage gets the best of you
A story formed
Becomes your norm
Though it was never true
Things are never right
Just another sign
To leave it all behind
Trying hard to change
Overcome this strain
Free from the constant pain
This endless fight
It ends tonight
It’s one you’ll never win
Trapped in your mind
Always behind
ไม่เป็นไรใจเย็นๆ (Mai bpen rai jai yen yen)
MANUFACTURED CHAOS
Instrumental
BELIEVE
Wanting to get closer
Before it fades away
Show me the way
Fairy tales are written
Time ceases to exist
Eternal bliss
Fall into your own creation
Move the sun and stars
Your story, full of empty pages
Believe you’ll go far
Searching for the secret
To leave it all behind
Show me a sign
Captivating dream land
Becomes reality
Among the free
Fall into your own creation
Move the sun and stars
Your story, full of empty pages
Believe you’ll go far
Fall into your own creation
Move the sun and stars
Your story, full of empty pages
Believe you’ll go far
THE DAMNED
Cold is the night
They enter again
Soon they’ll possess
Control to no end
Reign
They reign inside my head
Cursed
I’m cursed, I am The Damned
Defeating thoughts unfold
My own worst enemy lives in my mind
Cynical tales are told
Why is the good in life so hard to find?
The light that tried to shine
You shall not stand
Reveals what’s inside
You are The Damned
Defeating thoughts unfold
My own worst enemy lives in my mind
Cynical tales are told
Why is the good in life so hard to find?
I saw you come alive
Firm you shall stand
Reveals what’s inside
You’re not The Damned
