Anthem
04:31
|

|
Closer to the sound before you, falling out of dark
Ending all ambiguation, screaming at the mark
As we search for guiding anthems, aiming at the stars
Holding onto hidden manors, this is who we are

Flipside
03:37
|

|
Back in the day you know you were so right
It all made sense with us as friends, we were so tight
Head in the stars, I was fighting all your wars
Losing grip, you cling and you trip; I'm leaving you behind
Never turning back, past the point of no return
Now you see me for what I really am
It's the flipside of me
I won't give another chance
To talk about all your dreams
I'm out of this false romance
The flipside of me
Now you see how much I've changed
Look how much I grew
Look how much you've stayed you
And now today you seem so shocked by what you see
I made an act for you, but I made hell for me
The act is done, put my head back in the stars
The beast is out now I'm alive and you are gone

Dynamite
04:16
|

Throw me into fire
It's better than the sea
Hold on tight; I'm dynamite
I'll make you history
Don't you dare talk behind my back
You wanna wait for me to sink
Don't you try to protect my sanity
I can handle more than you think
I'm not a prisoner of your destruction
I'm interrupting your interruption
Why can't you be mean to my face?
I'll kick you down all over the place
Little bastard, running past
You little coward; you won't last; you
Little bastard, running past
You little coward; you won't last; just
Throw me into fire
It's better than the sea
Hold on tight; I'm dynamite
I'll make you history
Yet you always seem so friendly
So subtly backstabbing
Make that smile a little bit wider
And spread your coward wings
Not gonna let you drown my opinion
Rather explode all over your face
Play a little closer to fire
Only your pride disgraced
Little bastard, running past
You little coward; you won't last; you
Little bastard, running fast
You little coward, should have showered
You don't care about any of us
You only care about your reputation

The Way I Run from You
03:29
|
|||
|
My mind is on fire
I want to forget you
Condemned to be irrational
Your will, will not break me
I can live without you
You're someone else's problem now
But you want me to hurt as much as you
I could tell you things to prick your spine
But I will not do, I'm higher than you
I will stand up speechless for you to find
Then finally, even I can't talk, even I can't breathe
Your memories putting me in overdrive
Your footsteps leave a path for me to finally see the
Way I run from you, this is the way I run from you
Now I hope I never
See you again until
You finally become rational
I no longer need you
That's what you kept saying
And now we've finally made it true
And now I don't care, nothing left to share
I'll be moving on just like you
So forget me now, that's what I allow
And I'll do my best, forget you too
Never gonna hear you say
Never gonna find a way
All I wanna to do right now is
Run away from you
All the things you put me through
So glad that I withdrew
Don't you wanna see the way
I run from you?

Halfway
04:39
|
|||
|
All these things you make me into aren't enough for you
Never be enough but that's okay if I am through
It's not my fault that I am selfish like you
After all, it's only my life
After all, it's only my life
Try to find myself, discover, try to be a constant lover
Try to not neglect the things that I so care about
And if I come across as selfish to you
Well I had to make a choice
I let your words fade to my voice
What if we only meet halfway
After all of the things you've heard me say?
Too many things for which I strive
So innocently half-assing my life
Could've been an artist faster
Could've been a total bastard
Could've been so many places doing what I want
It's all my fault that I chose this life for myself
Now there's no turning back
Now there's no turning back
I'm finally free maybe are you
I';ll find my life and you will too
It only hurts if it almost works; looks like we're doomed
Wish I could apologize for trying to be
Someone far more than me
Halfway was all I could be
Don't want to be your world
I can't even make my own
You'll be happy somewhere, somehow, someday
All I wish is I will halfway
What if we only meet halfway?

Superunnatural
03:40
|
|||
|
I'm feeling pain as you do
Stuck in an endless voodoo
Take me out of this
Cage we built for
Me. I'm the prisoner
Me. I'm the sinner
Me. I'm the one who let you
Control my life, your peon
I'm coming up tails in a cold busy street
With no one to rescue me, from the horrors I meet
Locked in your mind in a cage built for me
It's superunnatural, this life that I lead
You, the controller
You, manipulator
You, are the one who makes me hate myself
Nothing new
You, zealot, dragoon
You, think as I do
Try control my life, your peon
Me. I'm the prisoner
Me. I'm the sinner
Me. I'm the one who let you
Control my
Life, falling into
Death, coming nearer
Hell, running away
Heaven save me; you won't take me
Your cold stare is just a reflection
Of how I feel inside
The keeper isn't you; it's me
That's what I find
I'm setting the sails
This truth I've impaled
It's me that has failed
Me. I'm the prisoner
Me. I'm the sinner
Me. I'm the one who's superunnatural

Under summer skies I met you
Though I didn't see them at the time
And now it's a whole other season
It's been so long since I have tried to call you
And I'll probably never hear from you again
Leaves me so curious what could have been
Put your place into my life
So here goes one final strive
Something nothing everything
I'll take it all
And if the summer wasn't right
I'll still try with all my might
For something nothing everything waits on your call
Not much point for me to ponder
It's been so long I've moved along
But something left is still here missing
The closure that you rarely have still haunts me
Though I didn't really care that much anyway
But maybe you'll hear me sing this song someday
These stupid little games
I'm sure I've done the same
You never seem to know
But maybe it's enough
I seem to have my answer now
Though it's sometimes fun to doubt
You haven't disappeared
Put your place into my life
So here goes one final strife
Something nothing everything
I'll take it all
And if the summer wasn't right
I'll still try with all my might
For something nothing everything waits on your call
Not on mine; I'm moving on
Something nothing everything

It's the flipisde of me
I won't give another chance to talk about all your dreams
It's the flipisde of me
Now you see how much I've changed
Look how much I grew
Let's see the flipside of you
Flipside of me

Without Someone
04:53

Here we are; we are off to fight
With curses and plagues and swords of might
You ace your homework but you can't ace your dreams
You're not so doomed; it's just how it seems
Never alone but never alright
Can't seem to find the candle with light
Always left where you begun
We are the ones without someone
Young paladin, your friends are who you choose
Go save the day, but nice guys always lose
You've slayed the dragon but you can't get the girl
High five your pals; you still can spare the world
One day you will see, double your xp
With dexterity you'll find your way
One day you will find charisma in your mind
Love can be as kind; it's not so gray
For now there's demons to slay
Defeat the orcs, when he rolls a nine
But little Leeroy has just an eight-sided die
With sword in hand, he will slash and sweep
Kills all his friends, better watch where he sleeps
Without someone

Freeing me from peril
Leading me from sin
Wakens distant carols
The best of me within
Waiting for a moment
Give up this life I lead
You know what's best for me
These evils I will cede
You're saving me from myself
When the words I've learned aren't right
So bring a book from your shelf
And help me through the night
You're the angel of my life
Angel of my life
Become the better person
From the one that I once was
You see my situation
I only see my flaws
Now I'm here to listen
You never lead astray
Asking you for guidance
I'm breaking my cliché
Angel, won't you tell me
That I can finally change
Please be there by my side
Is asking you this strange?
Guide me into your arms
I know you want me to find you
Watch as I hold my breathe
Breaking chains with my strength that is true
Reaching out from the dark
Someday you will see me by you
Then you will know that I have
Always believed
That you're the angel of my life
Angel of my life
Angel of my life
Angel of my life

Angel of my life
Your dynamite frees me
From ancient walls with barnacles
Left buried in the sea
I feel as though I'm waking
From thousands years of sleep
Angelic eyes and lullabies
Are all I need to keep
Finding what I'm looking for
Just opens like revolving doors
Stuck in circles, looks at me
I'm waiting for eternity
Hoping there will be a day
When time and space will go away
Take me to another place
With tears in mirrors we'll end our chase
Myself I seek
I am not weak
Sweetness seems so hard to find
When sourness has held my mind
The pieces of my life have been so sweet and sour
Left for dead I storm awake
Hoping that my soul won't break
"Who am I?" I scream aloud
I cast away this evil shroud
The ghosts and mystics chase me far
They won't see me if I hide my scars
Leaving all this past behind
A stitched-up future to unwind
I want to know
Will these wounds show?
I'm looking at the person within me
I'm wishing I'd just seize epiphanies
I want to help the one inside of me
All I can do is say what I'm thinking
And I just want you to be the one you wanted to be
And I just want you to find your way and finally be free
And I cannot stop thinking about the anthems in your mind
And I just want you to know that I care about what's inside
If I could hear you calling, if I could see your whisper
I might finally find myself
My fear is always stalling; the nightmares are appalling
Can I just make them go away?
I can think about it, but it all does nothing
I'll just have to make it leave
But in this anthem I hear the voice outside me calling
It's telling me I should believe
And I just want you to be the one you wanted to be
And I just want you to be the one you wanted to be

I have not heard such kind of dark metal for ages! In the late 90s this style was quite popular with bands like Darkseed, Sundown, Aion, Diabolique, Beseech or Paradise Lost in their soft phase. Sure, on one side "The Everlasting" sounds old-fashioned, but on the other the songs are a welcome variation in my current playlist. And old-fashioned or not, songs like "Waiting for the Sign" or "Bred to be broken" are simply catchy, cool and they rock!
