Tracklist: 01. Stormcrow Rising from the ashes A Dark messenger of sorrow I'm the stormcrow Heaven and hell Entwined in a dance that you know so well Your pleasure and pain They are my domain They're where I reign You've been waiting for me In your denial it's hard to see Addicted to pain, your life is a cage And your heart is the stage Where I'll play my symphony so vile Your life it will never be the same The storm will rise again and You'll see too late I am all that you hate Rising from the ashes A Dark messenger of sorrow I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe Cruel wings of destruction Harbringer of you downfall I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe I am your Cain The pain that will brng you down to you knees The beast you have slain again and again I still remain I'm the ghost of your pride I am the wight of the days gone by A remnant of life you left behind Your angel sent from below Where you'll go when all is said and done Your life it will never be the same The storm will rise again and You'll see too late I am all that you hate Rising from the ashes A Dark messenger of sorrow I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe Cruel wings of destruction Harbringer of you downfall I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe The evil in your closet The wolf at your door Everything that you're scared to wish for I am it all A whisper of freedom Like echoes of Eden I am wher your future lies I've given to you a burden to bear The lowest of lows and highest of highs Give into me and all we can share is Our sweet demise, the tears in our eyes Tales of love and loss, a soul once left forlorn The crow it calls to you, and bearer of the storm I'm the sorrow and the horror in your heart Your ill omen and the watcher in the dark I'll play your twisted symphony once more Your song echoes through the night so silent And you will se Rising from the ashes A Dark messenger of sorrow I'm the stormcrow Cruel wings of destruction Harbringer of you downfall I'm the stormcrow Rising from the ashes A Dark messenger of sorrow I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe Cruel wings of destruction Harbringer of you downfall I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe Rising from the ashes A Dark messenger of sorrow I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe Cruel wings of destruction Harbringer of you downfall I'm the stormcrow I'm your woe 02. The Best Of Times I used to sit him outside We would laugh and talk for hours While he taught this little boy What it means to be a man, a father Given to me, given to me A burden to bear, a crown to wear A pain to remind me of what I should be A lesson to learn, a dream to earn Please the crowd and make him proud I'll be all can be, show that I'm worthy He was always there He would always care Never leave me scared I miss him so much... He would never judge Never hold a grudge When I made my choices He stood by me It was the best of times If only someone had told me How life can fade How king can fall I'd change my ways And all the days I wasted I'd spend with the ones that I love Wounds can be opened and all hearts can be broken and all words left unspoken Must then crawl to their graves We will grow older and our nights will grow colder When the moment is over It will never come back 03. A Night To Forget When lights go down lets have another round Come here my love, help me to search for my crown A king of fools, I'm breaking all the rules A drunken parody, I can't see the irony This is my dynasty of pride and vanity My broken self-esteem just can't face reality Always the silent one, I was born to be undone So I'll stay here in the darkness and I will Leave everything Leave everything behind me My every sigh and every little lie All that I have are memories so frozen No one is flawless but baby I'm the worst Pour me another one Tell me I'll meet someone A spoonful of sugar makes the poison go down Feed my insanity Write me a tragedy Let's make a memory A night to forget Rain keeps falling I'll keep crawling At three A.M. I can't remember who I am A sad and epic fail, I'm three on the Glasgow scale once again I vow "I'll make this right somehow" It's just another lie, you'd cry if you could see me now I'm such a travesty, living out my fallacy Leave it to me to be the killer and the casualty Late nights and neon lights A thousand wrongs and zero rights These are the steps that I must follow and I will A shot of whiskey and some wine A life in beautiful decline I try to run, I try to hide Intoxicated all the time I'll build a bridge to watch it burn Pour the ashes in the urn And turn away just to start again 04. I Will Build You A Rome [Lyrics and music by Jani Liimatainen] A word or a touch All I need, I'm not asking for much Take my hand, I will follow you home With these hands I will build you a Rome Where they will never find us No need to be scared I do not care about who you were All that matters is right here and now What will come there is no way to know But we'll face it together You'll never need to ask for more You know you can have it all [Chorus:] My love, my soul, my heart Are yours if you just want To share your life with me Forevermore They will not burn our Rome My heart will always be your home As long as you will have me Since we began You have turned me into a man Into someone I wished I could be I believe and the gods they decree We were meant for each other You'll never need to ask for more You know you can have it all [Chorus] The only heaven I need is you Always so tender and always true You are the spark that can light up my dark Forever safe right here in my arms And I don't just love you for who you are But for what you have made out of me Not for your beauty, so easy to see But for making me now complete [Solo] [Chorus] 05. Too Tire To Run There was a time when I could make your bright eyes gleam Now smiles upon your face are few and far between We were so young, naive and blind in all our pride To see the warning, the turning of the tide And I guess it's best we laid to rest All that we had and all we hope for It's time to close the door Stand here by my side and watch the river flow Through fields once green, where our garden used to grow Life goes by so fast and time waits for no one Too long we stared into the sun Now days are growing dark and we're too tired to run Now that we've lost the flame, the beauty of it all Our symmetry of souls reduced to metaphor We live, we learn some things are impossible to do And still I need you more than I want to But I guess it's best we laid to rest All that we had and all that we hoped for It's time to close the door I could've been worse, but I should've been better Should've been there 'cause I said "forever" Now I'm here wondering what Should've, could've, would've been and I could've said more 'cause the words they matter Should've been strong so you wouldn't have shattered But I'm here wondering what Should've, could've, would've been And I hope he gives more than I did All that you need and all that you hope for 06. Constellation Of Tears I will write a tale that is only mine on the page the words entwine My creation of beauty and of passion Mortal heart now writing immortal love Everything I'm dreaming of I will fashion a goddess, my obsession Stains on these pages Constellation of tears Like stars with scars Dark design of my twisted mind You're the final blight of a failed playwright Figment of my madness Verse of woe and sadness Wild and free, you're the raging sea And one day you will be the end of me Your star will be brightest In my constellation of tears You'll shine so bright tonight Broke my quill, I can't bend her to my will And the love grows stronger still While the rhymes they betray and the words they fail me Erato, why do you hate me so? Have some heart or let me go I am old and I'm tired, uninspired Stains on these pages Constellation of tears Like stars with scars Dark design of my twisted mind You're the final blight of a failed playwright Figment of my madness Verse of woe and sadness Wild and free, you're the raging sea And one day you will be the end of me Your star will be brightest In my constellation of tears You'll shine so bright tonight A flame that burns twice as bright Burns half as long Mine faded long ago My queen will never claim her throne I'll always be alone, my tale be left untold Stains on these pages Constellation of tears Like stars with scars Dark design of my twisted mind You're the final blight of a failed playwright Figment of my madness Verse of woe and sadness Wild and free, you're the raging sea And one day you will be the end of me Your star will be brightest In my constellation Dark design of my twisted mind You're the final blight of a failed playwright Figment of my madness Verse of woe and sadness Wild and free, you're the raging sea And one day you will be the end of me Your star will be brightest In my constellation of tears You'll shine so bright tonight 07. Antemortem There's beauty in pain that paints every day With colours that stay and won't fade away In wounds that won't heal, in nightmares too real They tell us that we can still feel In fire we're forged and given a form The harder the hammer the stronger the soul For all of our tears and all of our scars They remind us of who we are one is for the heart we left behind one is for a friend who said to goodbye one is for the love we swore would never die But that was in another lifetime one is for the times we were denied one is for the feelings locked inside one is for the secrets that we've had to hide But that was in another lifetime We might've been kings We might have been pawns We might've been ducklings We might have been swans There's no grand design There's only desire You're either the pearl or the swine For all that we've lost and our every tear The choices we've made have brought us here Everything we are, everything we have We have built from fragments one is for the heart we left behind one is for a friend who said to goodbye one is for the love we swore would never die But that was in another lifetime one is for the times we were denied one is for the feelings locked inside one is for the secrets that we've had to hide But that was in another lifetime But that was in another lifetime Please believe in me Because the man you see is not the man I used to be We may always be alone and broken But we have survived, we are alive Please believe in me Because the man you see is not the man I used to be We may always be alone and broken But we have survived, we are alive one is for the heart we left behind one is for a friend who said to goodbye one is for the love we swore would never die But that was in another lifetime one is for the times we were denied one is for the feelings locked inside one is for the secrets that we've had to hide But that was in another lifetime one is for the heart we left behind one is for a friend who said to goodbye one is for the love we swore would never die But that was in another lifetime one is for the times we were denied one is for the feelings locked inside one is for the secrets that we've had to hide But that was in another lifetime 08. My Heart Beats For No one once again I'm in too deep once again there is no sleep Underneath these scarlit skies Where you and me are but a stillborn dream And if there'll be a brand new dawn Can you tell me Where is my home and where is my haven Where is the heart my name has been graven in You're still a saint in my eyes But God I am so tired So take the knife And sever the last lifeline It's over Now one must walk alone one is left behind This is who we are This is where we stand Strangers in the night Our wounds open wide Know that when you're gone My heart beats for no one Now I'm at the end of my rope Out of strength and out of hope You can have what's left of me But if you do tread carefully For now my mind is a minefield My heart's a haunted house Yours is a taste that used to be sweeter Your every word keeps slaying the dreamer I'll gather the pieces one last time I'm not ok, I'm not fine So dead inside Leaving heaven denied behind It's over Now one must walk alone one is left behind This is who we are This is where we stand Strangers in the night Our wounds open wide Know that when you're gone My heart beats for no one Now one must walk alone one is left behind This is who we are This is where we stand Strangers in the night Our wounds open wide Know that when you're gone My heart beats for no one 09. I Am Legion [Instrumental] 10. Rising Sun You always tried so hard to hide All the pain you held inside A little piece of heaven Faded, tainted memory You always smiled and played your part A jaded soul and hardened heart Like a child you stumbled in the dark These are the hands that shelter you When the rain begins to pour This is the heart than listens When you're down, can take no more No matter what you're not alone I am always by your side I will be here when the worlds collide Let it rain and let it thunder You'll be safe from going under You will not drown, I won't let you down And when the winter comes I'll keep you warm There's hope in every heartbeat Beautiful and complete When you're in too deep You can always call on me For no mountain is too high No ocean is too wide For me to come and be your rising sun I am the one to light the way Through the darkest of your days A beacon in the night To guide your ship back to the shore A rain to wash away the stains Of a thousand yesterdays There's no need for you to be afraid Let it rain and let it thunder You'll be safe from going under You will not drown, I won't let you down And when the winter comes I'll keep you warm There's hope in every heartbeat Beautiful and complete When you're in too deep You can always call on me For no mountain is too high No ocean is too wide For me to come and be your rising sun I will always be here standing at your door And my arms are open wide Waiting here until your wave will reach my shore Waiting for the eventide Let all your grief cascade on me I'll be the sea where they'll drown There's hope in every heartbeat Beautiful and complete When you're in too deep You can always call on me For no mountain is too high No ocean is too wide For me to come and be our rising sun For me to come and be our rising sun
