LYRICS: ''It begins where it ends...in nothingness. A nightmare born from deepest fears, coming to me unguarded... Whispering images unlocked from time and distance. A soul unbound - touched by others but never held. On a course charted by some unseen hand. The journey ahead promising no more than my past reflecting back upon me. Until at last, I reach the end, facing a truth I can no longer deny. Alone, as ever.'' Scully's monologue, The X-Files, S05E07, ''Emily''

LYRICS: There's a force in me, so strong, indestructible, unstoppable It's keeping me on my path in spite of evil mouths and vicious eyes Each and every step forward I take is a result of my unbreakable will My actions are pure, my deeds virtuous, oh how I wish you could be like me One day my name will be known to everyone who once lived on Earth And my speeches, so profound, will become the history of things to come I know all the secrets of the world, I understand the matter that surrounds us I believe in life, I am enthralled in essence, I am the ideal of mankind I rise, beyond the mundane and trivial I'm becoming divine, I know my fate, I feel no fear I was once just like you, fragile, blind and full of hate But I found the strength to evolve, after I heard that God was dead I rise, beyond the mundane and trivial I'm becoming divine, I know my fate, I feel no fear I'm at peace with everything around me, I know what's good, I know what's fair I can learn from my past-life flaws and mistakes to make the world a better place I can see your anguish, I can fell despair, you've been staring at the abyss for far too long Soon everything is going to change, the dawn of men has begun When you find your house of cards destroyed You'll notice how meaningless your life is You'll see how small you are and you'll wish to leave it all behind I'll be there, I'll give you a hand, reach out for it and walk by my side I'll teach you how you can be transcendent like me I'll teach you the way of Übermensch

LYRICS: Hold my hand just for a moment, my candle is melting down I don't want to go without feeling your warmth one last time (And) This air I breathe is so foul and stale I'm disgusted by my odds to fail I can't force myself to live another night I'm slowly giving up, surrendering this rigged fight As I lay on my deathbed, I can clearly see life was the cruelest game Just another soul gone astray, just another name fading away in vain I regret every day I lived without you walking by my side At the end I've got nothing more to say Farewell, my love, goodbye I deeply cherish all the brief moments of joy when I was your adored chosen one And though you left me there to drown in the rain, I'd do it all again, in spite of all the pain There's nothing left to do, there's nothing more I can give, (but please) Spend my last seconds with me, guide me into an everlasting sleep As I lay on my deathbed, I can clearly see life was the cruelest game Just another soul gone astray, just another name fading away in vain I regret every day I lived without you walking by my side At the end I've got nothing more to say Farewell, my love, goodbye Goodbye

LYRICS: I've seen the bright light dancing in the night sky It wasn't my imagination, it was something larger than life Aeons of time, vast unknown outer space, how could we be alone For as long as I remember I've been looking for the signs I've been searching for the proof, risking my life And when I came so close to an answer, everything started to crumble down They don't want us to know that there is more than meets the eye Denying knowledge, hiding the truth, force-feeding us their lies There's so much we have to learn about the world that surrounds us But those who have the power are in total control They regulate what you see, they know what you think And if you try to resist them, they will hunt you down They don't want us to know that there is more than meets the eye Denying knowledge, hiding the truth, force-feeding us their lies They will says it's all in my head if I unmask this mendacity They will lock me up and shut my mouth – invasion of insanity ''The truth is out there. But so are lies.'' I'm never going to give up, you can't stop me now I'll do whatever it takes to show the world what is real You can watch me from the distance or you can join me on this crusade The truth is out there, it has always been, open your eyes and you will see There's so much more to life, you just have to believe They don't want us to know that there is more than meets the eye Denying knowledge, hiding the truth, force-feeding us their lies They will says it's all in my head if I unmask this mendacity They will lock me up and shut my mouth – invasion of insanity The truth is out there (I want to believe) The truth is out there (Invasion of insanity) The truth is out there (I want to believe) The truth is out there (Invasion of insanity) I want to believe

LYRICS: I came to life one fateful night And I've finally seen your face You were lost in sorrow and grief Your livid eyes were turning grey You suffered so long but never cared To ask for a helping hand Now I'm here to end your pain Soon everything will come to an end What would you do if you knew that your negligence created me What would you do if you knew that you could have avoided me When you close your eyes you'll know I'm near The unknown presence, the greatest dose of fear I've been hiding for many years But now it's time to finally reappear And if you try to run, and if you try to hide You'll fail and feel despair Wherever you go, I'll follow you Don't resist and let me absorb your misery I have the power to heal And to fix what is wrong I can cure your broken soul I am yours forever and you are mine It was meant to be Nothing can separate us now Aside from murder-suicide I want to spend eternity with you The two of us coexisting with numbness and pain I'll cover you with roses and stardust Don't be afraid (don't be afraid) You should have realized by now that there's no way out of this Your fragile mind will collapse and I shall prevail When you close your eyes you'll know I'm near The unknown presence, the greatest dose of fear I've been hiding for many years But now it's time to finally reappear And if you try to run, and if you try to hide You'll fail and feel despair Wherever you go, I'll follow you And if you try to run, and if you try to hide You'll fail and feel despair Wherever you go, I'll follow you I'll follow you End it all...

LYRICS: As I sit in this darkened room Autumn is nearly coming to an end Cold walls are forcing me to question my existence I did nothing significant, I failed I always thought my time would come And I would rise to shine like the Sun I was so wrong, I'll never be known It's my destiny to be the forgotten one Sometimes I wonder why was it meant to be this way I gave all I had in me, but to no avail What doesn't kill me is going to make me weaker for sure Until I finally give up and accept the truth I always thought my time would come And I would rise to shine like the Sun I was so wrong, I'll never be known It's my destiny to be the forgotten one Nothing can change this fate of mine My future was set before I was born From now on I will put no effort into life It's my destiny to be the forgotten one Some people are meant to change the world And guide mankind through the night To spread wisdom, hope and joy And create a bright future for us all Some people are meant to secure freedom And to protect us from evil within And then you have me, who's got nothing to give, Nothing to live for and nothing to achieve Now I know that my life is pointless and bleak and I will not resist No more shooting for the stars, no more planning ahead, I'll bury my hopes and dreams (I'll bury them alive) I always thought my time would come And I would rise to shine like the Sun I was so wrong, I'll never be known It's my destiny to be the forgotten one Nothing can change this fate of mine My future was set before I was born From now on I will put no effort into life It's my destiny to be the forgotten one I always thought my time would come And I would rise to shine like the Sun I was so wrong... Forever... The forgotten one...

LYRICS: I've been wandering on a pitch black night with an infinite chasm in my heart I was lost in the endless fight between my desires and reality Then it appeared in front of me, grandiose in its complexity Born of the mighty solar wind with power to alter lives of those in need I yearn... Northern lights, majestic curtains in the sky Regenerate my soul, make me whole Northern lights, the entrance into another world Let me be the one to find the true meaning of life I wasn't born under a lucky star, everything I've done turned out so wrong And I felt like I should end it all a thousand times or more There was a fire in me that once burned so high and bright Help me regain the strength I lost, I can feel your presence, I can feel your might Help me, I'm giving myself to you... Northern lights, majestic curtains in the sky Regenerate my soul, make me whole Northern lights, the entrance into another world Let me be the one to find the true meaning of life I was lost but now I'm found, I can finally see you, I know you're real I can hear the crackling noise as I'm walking through the snow I am at peace, there's hope Aurora, untainted celestial ray of light Give me the strength to carry on Absorb this despair grinding on my bones Help me be the man I once was I never believed in miracles, prophets, gods or saints I've put my faith in cosmic energy and things I can empirically explain For so long I though I couldn't be saved, I believed I was damned Until I saw your colors, until I felt you're watching over me I can feel you... Northern lights, majestic curtains in the sky Regenerate my soul, make me whole Northern lights, the entrance into another world Let me be the one to find the true meaning of life Guide me through this longest night Regenerate my soul, make me whole Northern lights, give me peace and strength to carry on Let me find the true meaning of life, help me be the man I once was
