1. Promenade Prolusion
[Instrumental]
[Music by: Thomas Ahlgren Erik Odsell]
2. Fear Of Denial
[Lyrics by Wallin]
As we reach unto the sky
living fearful in a lie
we stop and stare upon the starlit fields we see
Out there I watch the trail of streaming light
defining patterns in the shining eyes
My lifeblood, that feeds my will to be
is slowly deserting me
The silence from your lips deceives your true intentions
and it follows me into the grave
Those shining eyes, I feel their cold gaze
My lifeblood, that feeds my will to be
is slowly deserting me
The silence from your lips deceives your true intentions
and it follows me into the grave
As we reach unto the sky
living fearful in a lie
we stop and stare upon the starlit fields we see
Out there I watch the trail of streaming light
defining patterns in the shining eyes
-staring back at me
As our world is set on a course that is bound
to lead to extinction
Our minds wont still allow us to
think in different ways
A silent roar rising up to the ceiling
of suppressed emotions
I try to look into your mind
but a barren wasteland is all I see
Those shining eyes, I feel their cold gaze
Those shining eyes are staring at me
whispering statues marbled in stone
Starting to transform into a shape
that was previously to them unknown
Running in fear of denial
afraid of losing what little dignity is left in me
A violent roar of anger and frustration
will my soul never taste the light?
Reaching to the sky…
Living fearful until we die…
Afraid of living
afraid of ourselves
For all we know
we must die to end this process
3. Left Behind
[Lyrics by Wallin]
As I shrink into the shadows
I remember what was then
There is something missing
Like a piece of me…
Haunting mists are following me
you will never be again
Like a ship, on the everflowing seas
ever drifting away
life?s light blown out by a wind of unbeing
could do nothing more,
it was all lost, when you died.
Left behind I can recall
what you knew and what you were
All these thoughts and memories
unable to share
Haunting mists are following me
you will never be again
Like a ship, on the everflowing seas
ever drifting away
life?s light blown out by a wind of unbeing
could do nothing more,
it was all lost, when you died.
Left behind
The starlit passages of rain that fall
Infernal memories of dreams we had,
now ever in the shadows of the dead.
Alone I sit and wonder what went wrong
a sparkling candle, then you are gone
The pain that’s glowing in my heart
Who would have known you would so swiftly depart?
Life?s light blown out by a wind of unbeing
could do nothing more,
it was all lost, when you died.
In mourning now,
we stare at the remnants
of a life so glorius.
Never to see, never to be, evermore
rushing at futile flickers
of hope in the dusk,
I am
Left behind
4. Twilight Symphony
[Lyrics by Ahlgren]
The twilight darkness is growing in our souls
And the twilight symphony is playing thousands of tones
The tones that lead us to the eternal night
The night that makes us blind with all its might
I can feel the pain
Listening to the mourning of the lost
Confronting emotions cold as winter frost
When the glimmering stars are covering the sky
My dreams turn strong and I close my eyes
I start to fall into the mysteries of night
When I hear the symphony of the twilight
The tones of beauty and tones of pain
Blind my body, it is hopeless to explain
Twisted fantasies are coming down
When the tones of the night begin to drown
Listening to the twilight symphony
And feel the tones of an elegy
Forever confronting the sadness that the music brings
The cold nights have awoken me
But my soul is still asleep
Drifting by the wind
Followed by the twilight tones
The tones I always hear
Tones so full of misery
A reflection of a life
Empty and without lust
Listening to the twilight symphony
And feel the tones of an elegy
A requiem performed with lucid purity of blind emotions
Empty I feel when I listen to the twilight tones
Beauty and pain
Turning the pages
Infinity, chaos I will find
The twilight darkness is growing in our souls
And the twilight symphony is playing thousands of tones
The tones that lead us to the eternal night
The night that makes us blind with all its might
I can feel the pain
Listening to the mourning of the lost
Confronting emotions cold as winter frost.
