Sascha I. One of the greatest newcomer albums of the last few years. I can hear some passages that distinctly remind me of Blind Guardian, Winterstorm and Gamma Ray. But above all there lies that special, unique vibe, which gives the whole album its own character. Especially songs like "One Night Before The Winter" are outstanding and provide a tremendous personal note. Favorite track: One Night Before The Winter.

jaeman Super fast and amazing choruses. Well, its a lot more varied than that. Everything I like about power/prog is in here. Fast, weird, big choruses, and a pretty good sing along too. Favorite track: Show Me The Miracle.

Wait, there’s another thing That I have to say Pray, if you wanna see Another day No time for failure No time for rest We have to move now and move fast The world’s getting colder The sun’s turning black The darkness is waiting For final attack But we carry on It’s the only solution To rise... Upon the dust and lies So here we are We are staring at the eyes of our future We won’t stand and wait for the miracle We don’t believe in a bright tomorrow Cos’ life is here and now An’ we know that somehow We’ll climb to the top of This mountain We’ll bring our flame To the distant sky We’re on our way Higher and higher We’re holding fire Spreading light In a heart of the winterstorm Our proud legion’s born Someday we will return To our glory land Over dark age and to the light Over gloaming seas and silver night We won’t come back here again We’re moving on to the glory land Someone is turning back Cos’ the way is hard But we carry on we knew it from the start And everlasting fire in our hearts’s Still burning Now we’re standing, we’re here We are waiting for the next countdown To go far away To rise over cities To rise over skies To rise... Upon the dust and lies And through the centuries Towards the victory And to the first light of final sunrise We’re going through the boundaries Through the burning flames and ice Under the freezing cold and under Incinerating sun Under the rain and the deafening thunder We will not come back down down In a heart of the winterstorm Our proud legion’s born Someday we will return To our glory land Over dark age and to the light Over gloaming seas and silver night We won’t come back here again We’re moving on to the glory It’s just a beginning of the story We are moving on to the glory land!

Fragile Lie 07:00
Hold on, take a look at the sky How long ago did you do that last time? You don’t know, it’s no wonder at all You think that sun will make you blind Oh, make you blind And you’re running again for the night Run for the night Still searching for a better life Your dreams they are so far away Do you remember what you really need? Is it how you’ve been planning your way For so many weeks, for so many years? So many years And look what you’ve got now Kaleidoscope of tears And a sea of wasted time No, you don’t understand it You’ve got nothing but you are You are afraid to lose what you have You need a plan to find the way out Another day will disappear And you will stand in fear And you just wanna hear Just one more time the same old lie Just one more time the same old story But the day will come When the truth will arise And your world will be burnt down Oh, your world is so fragile You just can’t imagine How fast it will burn away Your world’s made of paper And sooner or later You will understand That it’s wrong To live in a faked world To believe in a faked truth To forget about things that Really matter, that guide your life No, you make another mistake Drowning deeper in a venomous lake Filled with anger and hate Don’t you wanna break out? Take a look into your soul Take a look deep inside There is only truth just Let it show you the way Or your fragile world Full of empty words Will fade away… Away… No, they don’t understand it This road ain’t lead anywhere, it It hides another trap And they know it, but they are They are afraid to lose what they have They need a plan to find the way out Another day will disappear And they will stand in fear And they just wanna hear Just one more time the same old lie Just one more time the same old story But the day will come When the truth will arise And their world will be burnt down Just one more time take a look at the sky To see the dawn and to understand You cannot hide from the truth (And from the sun) And you will not hide when your world Will be burnt down

Look at the sky It’s a black winter night Coming on from the far away lands From the endless horizon The shadows are rising With darkness an’ mist in their hands Golden sun’s going down And the silence around Falling on mountains and hills Feeling cold winter breath We’re alone in this trap An’ this moonlight will save us or kill Time to decide We will hide in the cellars Or we’ll stand an’ fight For the light and the glory With freedom that lives in our hearts What will dominate here? What will we see? Burning sun on the skies When your soul’s flying free Or this night full of secrets An’ darkness wherever you go... Time has come to survive In this battle for life For the light of the sun That is shining so bright For the flame in your heart And the light in your eyes With the freedom inside Our legions are rising And battle is now Like a raven in darkness But his eyes will be blinded By light of another sunrise And a new day will come... And a new day will come... Look at the ground It’s burning around It’s calling it’s calling your name You can feel it inside You can feel it this time Like a calling of life in your veins We’re strong we’re proud We will stay hard We will never give up we’re united Despite cruel black clouds Filling this dark night We see the distant light Sign of the skies We could see it again Through the fire and ice It’s a symbol of life An’ it’s all that we are waiting for Triumph is near If you look in our eyes You could see it so clear We’re standing as one And we’re blowing up this winter night Look at the sky It’s a first morning light Coming back from the far away lands It's a first note It's a glimmer of hope It's a new day

I’ve lost my way That I’ve been traveling than I finally came to this land What’s this place? Why’s everyone staring at me? Like I’m standing with blood on my hands What? What? What am I doing here? I don’t wanna be here I don’t wanna feel this fear Condemned to be a slave In this land I’m like in cave Wherever I will go my soul reminds Somewhere beyond this place I could be king Great, bright and glorious Master of wind But now I’m gazing at the dark Trying to find out something Gazing at the dark I’m beginning my way And it’s gonna be a quest for a crown Or it’s gonna be my way to angels It’s gonna be a quest for my life Cold night was everything I’ve seen here I see no reason to be happy or to open my heart This time I won’t wait for a new day I’m gonna spread my wings an’ fly towards vivifying sunrise I don’t know when But I will reach the place Where I will find an endless light from the sky It will be the end Of my eternal quest May be that day I’ll bring back my life And... Somewhere beyond this place You could be king Great, bright and glorious Master of wind But now you’re gazing at the dark Trying to find out something Gazing at the dark You must begin your own way And it’s gonna be a quest for a crown Or it’s gonna be your way to angels It’s time to begin your quest for your life

Standing at the window And looking on the street Listening to silence And feeling freezing wind You are One to one with this night and rain Again... And wind is (sorrow) whispering sorrow in your ears (tears) It’s telling you “please, don’t hide your tears (I know) I know you’re now in deep despair” And you can feel in the air that you have only One night before the winter falls On this grey land... Night is like a blanket It’s covering your soul You’re screaming in the dark And no answer to you call It seems There’s no way to make real your dreams You’re dreaming of (light) rivers and valleys full of light (rain) No clouds, no rain, no hate inside (night) But now you’re alone in this freezing night An’ it’s dark an’ it’s cold an’ it’s only night One Night One night before the winter falls down And snow (and snow) And rain (and rain) Will bring back sorrow and you are afraid To miss the first ray of sun over this town After the winter falls down But sun will rise again And there’s nothing you should fear Listening to silence An’ feeling freezing wind You won’t Be alone in this night and rain Again... But now it’s (night) night and there’s nothing you can do (cold) Yes, it is cold and dark it’s true (time) It’s time to have a look inside your mind It is twilight time it is time of just one night

I lived my life in a city with no light And all I’ve ever had was the fire inside my soul But it was not enough I said: “It’s time to go!” And made my first step on this road I walked alone and I walked in the crowd I went across the burning sands I went across the blackened ground And now I know, I have to go Wherever this wind will blow And everyday I write another line And when I make another step I feel alive I seek the sun somewhere beyond this darkness And I know I’ve gone too far and there is no way to return But no, my story was not told I know I’m not alone So can you hear my word? Can you hear my call? Is it everything you need? Is it all that you can give? On the ashes of your dream Decide and believe My road’s an endless way to the unknown My road is like a river flowing cross the rain and snow A million cities I will see ‘Cos brighting stars are guiding me And I am endlessly free One day I may stop and turn around And take a look at everything That I have left behind So many miles So many days and nights The road and my life entwined But until now there’s no way to turn back And may be you could never understand The reasons that I have And no I cannot stay I’m on my way I’m gonna travel though the night To a brand new day

Shadowcave 04:52
Days are passing by And there is no way to stop the time Or to turn back the river of our lives And live it all again Yes, I could, yes, I will I don't need no soul salvation Live my life, have no fear Anytime I'd cross the edge to fly Everything every time Gotta be as I wanna see it I am free, life is mine Why should I believe in a burning flame You live so fast And you don't think what will remain You trapped in time, The world is bending you It's pushing you Until you give it up I can’t be what I’m not And I did the best that I could I am weak, it is hard I have no strength to lead this total war Everything every time Is so wrong, I don't know Who am I? How could I? How could I arise to the burning flame? Our souls are lost in dust and ashes ages ago Like torches light of life we'll bring forevermore As times go by we must keep the flame From dying under the ruins of shadowcave Far away, far away Sacred concealed it's name Lost in the ocean of time Fragile flame could Fade away in the shadowcave Or it could guide and light up Our lives and all around us Keep the flame and make it brighter
9.
Across the sea, against the wind Keeping fire flame within I tried to come to promised land Every day and every night I said “I am ready to fight and I will fight until the end” So here I am, alone again I’m standing here and I raise my hands I’m asking you what should I do And will I ever find the truth? Creator of the wind Just give me a sign I’ve been waiting for this time For so long Your freedom forever will live in my soul I’ll stand and I won’t fall Every time deep in my mind I hear Darkness is calling me I wanna see if destiny and sun Are by my side so Show me the miracle Take me away I will follow your signs and I’ll stand in your name I will cross over seven seas And walk through the hell At the end you will know who I am Creator of the light Just give me a sign Send me a ray of the sunrise Your fire forever will live in my soul I’ll stand and I won’t fall My world's in my hands I believe that one day I will open the gates I will walk through the night Just to stand in the light I will rise… I will rise… Just let me rise… And now I’m here I feel so cold I have no hope to find my way Back to my home Give me a sign Send me your light I wanna feel your holy might Inside my mind Now I am alone I’m asking you What should I do and when will my sun Light up the skies?
10.
So long ago, so far away So many days, so hard to stay So many words behind the scenes And all I see is precipice Can you remind me what it's like To see the light, to feel alive This bitter night is way too long This pain's too bad, it all ends too wrong I am lost in my visions and dreams I can't see your light in the sky I've lost my hope, I've killed my pain I don't wanna feel it again And there's only regret, There was only disguise There is nothing but pain There was nothing but lies There was only decision to run and hide Now there's nothing but ruins inside Nobody ever said goodbye Nobody knows the reasons why So many words were left behind the scenes And all we see is still precipice Dreaming on, I have no ideas How to stop this chaos around of me, no I don't need to face my own fears You don't need to know The reason I bleed I'm chasing for something that I can't see I'm just fighting with something inside of me I am losing this game I am losing again I'm destroying myself (destroying myself again...) So long ago... So far away... And all I see...
11.
So, can you hear me in this noise? When I’m calling you Always knew you had a choice Now you have to pray Yeah, you have to pray To the master of this game ‘bout the leaving of the sadness and pain In vain Everything is gonna be Like it was before No one out there really cares What you're waiting for They are following illusion They forget about the dream They are looking for a chance To sell everything They have and they feel Unreal, and everything is unreal Looking for a master in the sky Believe in a higher force Dreaming of a life that they could have While everything is getting worse Open, open your eyes It's too dark here Open to see the truth Or everyone'll forget What it's like Neverending sequence Of inexcusable mistakes Could be broken with another sunrise That you could behold with opened eyes So this struggle'll never end Till you are against You don't wanna live your life Like someone else You don't wanna pretend That you don't understand What's the difference Between you and them Sometimes you wanna close your eyes Like they all did And leave everything behind Like a bad dream But you just can't give up But you just can't forget What was it all for and why Should you stand In your way till the end You ain't gonna lose what you have You just can’t let it be As it is now You gotta say your word Sometimes you think you’re the only one Who knows what it's like to see The real world
