[Music & Words by Tolkki/Lassila]

The time is running
It's running so fast that you don't notice
Years are passing by
And you're growing older
What happened to all your dreams?
Did they become true at all?

We cannot undo the deeds of the years
They leave you on your own
With all your deepest fears

Don't look for the future
Don't live in the past
Just take it day by day 'cause life goes fast
The minutes, the hours
The days and the years will fly so
Live still when you have the time

We cannot undo the deeds of the years
They leave you on your own
With all your deepest fears

Wheel of the time
Turns again tonight
Eternally decides our destiny
Wheel of the time
Turns again tonight
Without reason or rhyme

The hands of time


. . .



[Music by Tolkki, Words by Tolkki/Lassila]

I saw it in a dream
the day that changed our history
I still can hear the screams
swear it was no mystery
In the heat of the blast
Houses fell down into the ground
This happened so fast
Mankind disappeared without sound

Now the world lives in shadow of atomic fear
Can we win the fight for peace or will we disappear?
Future Shock

I saw it on the screen
The day that changed our lives and history
There goes our dream
Nuked into the sky don't know why
In the heat of the blast
Watch the beauty of the mushroom cast
It won't take long
You won't live till the end of this song

now the ...


. . .



[Music & Words by Tolkki/Lassila]

Danger zone
I look into the mirror see my face again
I hear myself preaching
You are getting bold
Growing old
Skin turns cold

You're to blame
But I will find the way to be myself again
I break the mirror with a noise
Stop preaching me teaching me
leave me be

There's no way to stop me now
My end is in sight
I reach for the light
Tonight

Twilight time
It's twilight time
Reaching for a morning light
Twilight time


. . .



[Music & Words by Tolkki]

I have been sailing across the oceans
flying across the blue sky
Without never finding the answer
the answer to the question why
just when you think you reach it, it's gone

Chasing Shadows, Chasing shadows
Chasing Shadows, all your life

Harder you try to fix things in your life
Faster you know it's in vain
Searching for loving from strangest places
Nothing is left but the pain

Chasing Shadows, Chasing shadows
Chasing Shadows, all your life


. . .



[Music & Words by Tolkki]

Looking back through time to my childhood days
I used to have a place where I could escape the reality
But lately things have been so difficult for me
trying to reach for the light in the fall of darkness

Waiting watching my life I'm wasting my time
I'm losing grip from life
Going back to my dreamspace leaving it all behind
soon the things will be allright when I get there

Am I safe in here, nothing left to fear
I will close my eyes and float away with stream

Wandering here in this eternal darkness
no signs of light anywhere I am going in sane
Now I am leaving this life
No hope left I want to die


. . .


Dancing around the fire
We've gathered here tonight
Flames are getting higher
Memories are filling my mind
As I look back through the time
Nothing left to find

You're just a memory from the past now
And now it's time for Fire Dance

Fire is burning my soul
I'll be lost forever
Fire is burning my heart
Until the end of time

In this mysterious place
The fire's showing its face
Secrets are revealed
There is no turning back now
And as the hour draws near
I will burn with fear

You're just a memory from the past now
And now it's time for Fire Dance

Fire is burning my soul
I'll be lost forever
Fire is burning my heart
Until the end of time

. . .



[Words & Music by Tolkki/Kotipelto]

Once again I try to make things work
facing all the power of society
Searching all the answers of the life
I'll never make it on my own
Was I meant to fail everytime
Seems to me thats my destiny
Is this all that's left to me
Confusion and bad memories

But now my time has come
No more running in the dark
I want much more than this
I really want it all

Against the wind we run
to every place under the sun
We've got so much power inside
We will never give up
Against the wind we go
towards the new shore
together we'll forget the sorrow
it's forever gone


. . .



[Music & Words by Tolkki]

I'm entering in to the woods
I left everything behind
I have to follow my heart
Don't know what I'm looking for
Starlights guiding my way
to old black oak where we meet
now it's full moon

other side is calling me
singing dancing this is no dream
Twilight Symphony

The feast is going on
rapture never seen before
the fury is taking us
into a new level soon
Hearing voices everywhere
telling me what to do
giving me answers

other side is calling me
singing dancing this is no dream
Twilight Symphony

The spirits are calling me
I only wish to die
there is no question why
anymore


. . .



[Music by Tolkki, Words by Kotipelto]

Throwing my dreams out of my mind
casting them into the sky
canceling tasks I've delayed for so long
now it's do or die

I can't be seen I can't be heard
but I am here and I am wondering

Will the sun rise tomorrow
will it light up my sky
can I wake up with no sorrow awaiting
Will the sun rise tomorrow
will I still see the dawn
and not worry 'bout the future anymore

At the end of each day I promise myself
I'd better start to live
coz sooner or later I'll find out
there's so much I can give
I can't be seen I can't be heard
but I am here and I am wondering

Will the sun rise tomorrow
will it light up my sky
can I wake up with no sorrow awaiting
will the sun rise tomorrow
will I still see the dawn
and not worry 'bout the future anymore


. . .



[Words & Music by Tolkki]

I stand alone in the darkness
the winter of my life came so fast
memories go back to my childhood
to days I still recall

Oh how happy I was then
there was no sorrow there was no pain
walking through the green fields
sunshine in my eyes

I'm still there everywhere
I'm the dust in the wind
I'm the star in the northern sky
I never stayed anywhere
I'm the wind in the trees
would you wait for me forever ?


. . .



[Music:Tolkki/:Kotipelto]

Again I see you standing there watching me.
Your gaze, those eyes are tantalizing openly, inviting meto get close to you,
can't help myself.
There's fascination in the air.
I try to fight this strong sensation but there's no chance to escape
from this temptation.
Feels like I've known you before, repeating phrases,
but I yearn for something more.
I know I can't stay by your side forever,
but I know I won't forget your beauty,
my Black Diamond.


. . .



[Music:Tolkki/:Kotipelto]

I hear footsteps closing in I recognize them from my early days.
The times are different the image remains the same
repeating back flashes remembering the name, approaching visions of things
I can't recall, a familiar smike awakes the pain
unkept promises, the night awaits, the act of confidence
The kiss of Judas I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas hold me once again
in your privage chamber, you're all alone.
the well earned silver pieces falling to the floor
the flame of the candle casting movement to the wall
your eyes filled with guilt keeps staring at the door
Approaching visions of things. I can't recall
A familiar smile awakes the pain
unkept promises, the night awaits, the act of confidence
The kiss of Judas I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas hold me once again
unkept promises, the night awaits, the act of confidence
The kiss of Judas I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas hold me once again
unkept promises, the night awaits, the act of confidence
The kiss of Judas I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas hold me once again
