1. My Eternal Dream

[Music: Kupiainen, lyric: Kotipelto/Liimatainen]

I still remember when I was a child

So curious, adventurous and wild
Looked at the world with open eyes
I couldn't tell the truth from all the lies

I was taught how to live, how to behave

I was told, how to walk, to talk, to know my place
All those years I was searching for my way
All the world was my stage

So I will turn every dream

Into reality
And through the dark they will be
The light to guide me

I'm on my own, walking down this o r ad alone

I'll go on, I'll be strong, all I need is my eternaldream

Now I can see it all so clear

There are no boundaries and no frontier

I wouldn't change the road I'm on

My dream lives on long after I am gone

I have learned I must do whatever it takes

 I make mistakes, I must fall to rise again
Break the rules, all the chains that hold me down
I may sink but I won't drown

So I will turn every dream

Into reality
And through the dark they will be
The light to guide me

I'll show that I can't be tamed

When I'm gone remember my name
And I won't give up the ght
Go gently into the night

I'm on my own, walking down this o r ad alone

I'll go on, I'll be strong, all I need is my eternaldream

Turn every dream

Into reality
And through the dark they will be
The light to guide me

I'll show that I can't be tamed

When I'm gone remember my name
And I won't give up the ght
Go gently into the night

I'm on my own, walking down this o r ad alone

I'll go on, I'll be strong, all I need is my eternaldream

I'll go on, I'll be strong alone

All I need is my eternal dream

2. Shine In The Dark

When I was young and life had only just begun

The days were long and bright
So warm and full of light
I never knew that one day you would fade away
Your colors fade to gray
It seems like yesterday

Still you're shining in the dark

You're still safe within my heart
Where my memories lie and
I will follow you
Wherever you go

[Chorus:]
I am what you made of me
Your blood is my blood, and your heart is my heart
We are what we leave behind
An eternal stream
You flow through me

And I fear no more though you're gone

I know we'll meet again
I know you're there, still somewhere
You are waiting

You are the mystery that only I can know

The gentle wings that blow
The glitter on the snow
I never speak about you
Never say your name
It's not that I don't care
It's just that I'm not there
 You're still gone and I'm still here
Yet I always feel you near
Wherever I go

[Chorus]

Still you're shining in the dark

You're still safe within my heart
Wherever you are

[Chorus 2x]

And I fear no more though you're gone

I know we'll meet again
I know you're there, still somewhere
You are waiting

3. Rise Above It

Scam is the way

How they play
How they make their move
Damned everyday
What they say
How they forge our truth

We've seen it all so many times before

Make a stand, their demands don't matter anymore

Uprising, uniting, all those who e

f ar no more
Confusing, misleading, media's hard to read

What is real, what's the deal

Is it all done in the name of greed

What we feel is right and true

What we have is still
Inside our burning heart
Not torn apart, now we need to
Rise above it
They can write another lie
They can try to make us weaker
We won't bend, ght 'til the end
We won't yield
We'll rise above it

What they write isn't right

It doesn't matter if it serves the plan
Don't believe what you see
Just try to understand

We've seen it all so many times before

Make a stand, their demands don't matter anymore

What we feel is right and true

What we have is still
Inside our burning heart
Not torn apart, now we need to
Rise above it
They can write another lie
They can try to make us weaker
We won't bend, ght 'til the end
We won't yield
We'll rise above it

What we feel is right and true

What we have is still
Inside our burning heart
 Not torn apart, now we need to
Rise above it
They can write another lie
They can try to make us weaker
We won't bend, ght 'til the end
We won't yield
We'll rise above it

We'll deny their every lie

And we, we'll rise above it
We won't bend, we won't yield
They'll see we'll rise above it!
We are free, you and me
And we, we'll rise above it
We won't bend, we won't yield
They'll see

4. Lost Without A Trace

I can't explain the way I feel sometimes

The loss of words, the chaos in my mind
It seems like I can only bring you pain
The passion fades away
Like tears in the rain

And every time you try to reach for me

I feel afraid, I feel Im in too deep
It's not your fault we ended up this way
It's just that I can't be
What you want from me

I must walk away again

[Chorus:]
You will never see me
You will never hear me calling out your name again
Im out of words to say so Ill stay away
You will never heal me
You will never feel my touch upon your skin, your face
For I
I'm lost without a trace

I did not want to ght, not make you cry

I was too weak, the time was not right
I hope one day you can forgive me
For everything I've done
How I let you down

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus 2x]

5. Feeding The Fire

Reading all the daily news

Full of crime, hate and abuse
Where is this world heading to

Can't you get it in your head

No brighter future lies ahead
There's nowhere to hide
We're lost and we're out of time

So hear me now
 The time has come to make a stand
We lost, no one won
We fell one by one and
All we had slipped out of our hands

We will be the last

The die is cast
Open your eyes, hear the dreams burn
And light up the skies

No return, no lesson learned

We watch and we wait while everything burns
And we're just feeding the re

While you're watching daily feeds

Have you done all of your deeds
To make our world a better place

It is not so hard to tell

It's all going straight to hell
We'll leave like we came
We'll be gone without a trace

So hear me now
The time has come to make a stand
We lost, no one won
We fell one by one and
All we had slipped out of our hands

We will be the last

The die is cast
Open your eyes, hear the dreams burn
And light up the skies

No return, no lesson learned

We watch and we wait while everything burns
And we're just feeding the re

So hear me now
The time has come to make a stand
We lost, no one won
We fell one by one and
All we had slipped out of our hands

We will be the last

The die is cast
Open your eyes, hear the dreams burn
And light up the skies

No return, no lesson learned

We watch and we wait while everything burns
And we're just feeding
The re that will rise
The die is cast
Open your eyes, hear the dreams burn
And light up the skies

No return, no lesson learned

We watch and we wait while everything burns
And we're just feeding the re

6. Endless Forest

[Japanese Limited Edition Bonus Track, Instrumental]

[Music: Jens Johansson]

 7. Giants

[Japanese Limited Edition Bonus Track]

[Music and lyrics: Jens Johansson]

Haven't you ever been drowning in sorrow?

In the morning,
Because you're never gonna fly.

So insignicant, waiting for daybreak,

With a heartache,
Under the black and evil sky.

Life is unfair,
And nobody cares,
But did you think for a moment that you are so rare?
We are the hope of a world in despair.

We stand on the shoulders of giants,

And we will carry this power to the skies.
We stand on the shoulders of giants,
And take a look inside of you,
Then you'll see your power too.

Look at your life and reflect on the magic,

That you're given,
From many kin you never met.

Life is unfair,
And nobody cares,
But did you think for a moment that you are so rare?
We are the hope of a world in despair.

We stand on the shoulders of giants,

And we will carry this power to the skies.
We stand on the shoulders of giants,
And take a look inside of you,
Then you'll see your power too.

(We are the glory! We have the power!)

(We are the joy of a world without care!)
(We are the glory! We have the power!)
(We are the hope of a world in despair!)

Did you think for a moment that you are so rare?

We stand on the shoulders of giants,

And we will carry this power to the skies.
We stand on the shoulders of giants,
And take a look inside of you,
Then you'll see your power too.

8. In My Line Of Work

You deserve everything

Everything that you need
And all that you long for

But I, I'm rarely around

Every train feels outbound
I wish I could give you so much more

I must roam
Follow the road I've chosen
 Leave our home
The land is dark and frozen
Night by night
You're still in my mind
Everything I must do
Is your burden too

Still the road goes on and on

We just have to play along
Days are lonely, nights long
In my line of work

This is how the story goes

Highest highs and lowest lows
Home is never too close
In my line of work

Here the rules don't apply

Another town passes by
New faces, new strangers

And you could use someone new

Someone better than me
But I still hope you will be waiting

I must roam
Follow the road I've chosen
Leave our home
The land is dark and frozen
Night by night
You're still in my mind
Everything I must do
Is your burden too

Still the road goes on and on

We just have to play along
Days are lonely, nights long
In my line of work

This is how the story goes

Highest highs and lowest lows
Home is never too close
In my line of work

9. Man In The Mirror

Cry for the man in the mirror

See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond

You rape all the world for nothing

You made re and curse the flame
You suck dry the fount of wonder
You turn sorrow into hate

A lone wolf, a walking carcass

A sore sight for putrid eyes
What doesn't kill you makes you fouler
A dying whore by heaven's gate

We took the bait

The big millstone slowly turning

You make mud from hidden gold
You weigh down and crush my spirit
For every step of the road

Your dead lips embrace deception

My head lled with wasted words
 You kill what you can't devour
You wanna drown me in a lake of shit lth

Cry for the man in the mirror

See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond

We lost the race, and then you spat right in our face

A mouth open, flies ascending

A paradise of empty souls
The black skies an empty ocean
It took the wink of an eye

From our pleasant tree of knowledge

A long shadow touches death
Lose sight of a broken promise
And in a moment nothingness descends

Cry for the man in the mirror

See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond

10. Few Are Those

Don't fear the darkness

Let it nd you if it must
Open the door and
Embrace the sadness

Pain won't stain you

It will only make you strong
Hurt won't haunt you
But lead you where you belong

Let your grief fade away

He's a guest, not here to stay
For one more day

Keep the flame, let it burn

Through the night let it shine
A light divine

For few are those who

See with their own eyes
Few who feel with their own hearts
And few are those who
Reach for the stars and
Few who do more than their part

Let the daylight wipe away your fears

For this is your life
And nothing can hold you back

Take a moment
Take a breath and start again
You're not broken
And it can't rain all the time

Keep the flame, let it burn

Through the night let it shine
A light divine

For few are those who

See with their own eyes
Few who feel with their own hearts
And few are those who
Reach for the stars and
Few who do more than their part
 For few are those who
See with their own eyes
Few who feel with their own hearts
And few are those who
Reach for the stars and
Few who do more than their part

For few are those who

See with their own eyes
Few who feel with their own hearts
And few are those who
Reach for the stars and
Few who do more than their part

11. Fire In Your Eyes

On the long and winding road

If I say there's no tomorrow
If I say there's only sorrow
Would you ever let me be?

'Cause I'm drowning in despair

I can barely stay in focus
And I can't get it together anymore
Anymore

But somehow it's all worth it and the pain inside me dies
When I see the re light up in your eyes
But somehow it's all worth it and the pain inside me dies
When I see the re light up in your eyes

When you're tired to the bone

And your batteries are empty
When your dreams have turned to ashes
Would you ever just let go?

I would hope you change your mind

'Cause the road goes on forever
And a song can help nd your
Way back home

But somehow it's all worth it and the pain inside me dies
When I see the re light up in your eyes
Somehow it's all worth it and the pain inside me dies
When I see the re light up in your eyes

Somehow it's all worth it and the pain inside me dies

When I see the re light up in your eyes
Somehow it's all worth it and the pain inside me dies
When I see the re light up in your eyes
When I see the re light up in your eyes
When I see the re light up in your eyes

12. Lost Saga

I sail away from my homeland

My mission's to raid and plunder
I ght, I will rage, I will sunder
I hail the Thunder God

I look at the sky

Watch the waves turning into foam
I send my prayers against the wind
And I hope they'll reach my home
 I spent weeks on the ocean
My heart lled with devotion
At last in the mist there's a shoreline
A sight that is so divine

As I set my feet on foreign soil

I feel so anxious my blood begins o t boil
I leave my ship and walk across the shore
The journey goes on, I search and I explore

Now I prepare for war

As the day goes by

I must ght or die
When the crows fly low
It's my time to go

I won't fall today

I see the arrows are flying

I will be the last man standing
I hear desperate cries of the dying
Lives lost for the land, the king

See the enemy flee

Still I'm holding my bloodstained sword
My brother's laying by my side
They have lived, they have died for victory

A whisper's heard in the air

"Don't hang your head in despair"

I make offers to keep gods satised

I honour the friends who fought for them and died
We'll meet on the other side for one more time

As the day went by

I was standing still
All the crows flew high
Above the blood I'd spilled
I felt my guilt

I will raise my horn

And I'll drink the ale
For the dead I mourn
For the gods I hail
It's been a long day

It's time to go home

I hope someone's waiting for me there
I'll bring home fortune and fame and pain

Now I'm on my way

Through stormy waters I will sail
And I hope they'll know my name
They'll know my face

Long have been these years away

I know they've brought you into tears
And I pray I'm there one day
I'm back to stay

I won't have to ght

I feel my heart beat
I can sleep at night
My life is complete

And I know I'm home again

I will raise my horn

And I'll drink the ale
 For the dead I mourn
For the gods I hail
So I have done

I will raise my horn

And I'll drink the ale
For the dead I mourn
For the gods I hail
So I have done

I did raise my horn

And I drank the ale
For the dead I mourned
For the gods I hailed

And my day went by

Time to say goodbye
Now the crows fly low
It's my time to go
My name lives on
I am going home
