Lyrics :
1 BORN TO FIND
Listen like rain falling down –
Tears of the sky
He turns his dreams to visions.
Closing his eyes once again,
Drifting into the new world
Walking by empty streets –
World of night lights
He turns his thoughts to pictures.
What is the meaning of this
Jungle of iron and stone?
Faster time has run,
Hottest burning sun
Every day he search for wisdom,
Every day he runs to freedom,
Guided by his heart.
One day he would find his wisdom
And he’d run away to freedom
Empty fears must go.
It seems like his life’s just begun,
Heart is full of light
With courage he looks to the future.
Taking his light from inside,
Giving a new day to the world
2 GONE WITH THE TIME
Why is all around
Must turn into ash with the time?
Life is running fast,
There is no one, who can stop
I don’t want to see
Like I am slowly dying
I’ll open force within
And I will fight
All this material world
Tells me to be like they are
I must find some exit before
My powers will be gone
Influence of time is very strong,
But it’s too weak for our souls.
Living and dying in the circles of life
We’re just cannot oppose
I feel like today I’m gone with the time
And the years are behind
I cling, I don’t want to lose my life
Trying to realize…
I feel like today I’m gone with the time
And the years are behind
I cling, I don’t want to lose my life
Trying to realize
I will fight
3 ILLUSION OF LIFE
Morning awakes me up
Then shows me some new film
One more the story of
“Illusion of this life”
Invites me again to fall
Into this pain, that I always feel
“Submit to us,
Don’t hear your mind”
It’s illusion of life –
Everything, that’s around
I don’t want to see this lie,
That is tearing my heart
This illusion of life
Brings madness to us
I want release my mind
From the cage of the past
To surrender to life, to surrender to pain
And fall again and again
Or to touch this mysterious doors
And try to run away
I feel, I know we can find
Exit from this place,
Where hands of time
Wouldn’t touch our minds
It’s illusion of life –
Everything, that’s around
I don’t want to see this lie,
That is tearing my heart
This illusion of life
Brings madness to us
I want release my mind
From the cage of the past
Whatever is happening
All around is a game,
But why you cannot free yourself?
Only tears on your face
Somewhere I can find that world
There’s the place, where I belong
I’ll break this pain
And throw away my grief
4 LIE & TRUTH
The gates of life was opened to me,
I step into the world made of mist
They say ‘You must know your place, you
Must live your life like it's others do!’
I ask myself ‘Why I must believe?’
Within of me I feeling my soul
And people's home it's whole Universe!
I see around only weakness
And storming ocean of helplessness
Is this the place, where we need to go?
Where is lie or truth?
So many ways before me now,
One of them is for me
Where is lie or truth?
And leading by the calling heart
My hope I will keep!
I'll give back all I have in this life,
Because everything is dissolving in time.
Here envy and satiation
Directing humans perception
But at the end they're falling to cry
Where is lie or truth?
So many ways before me now,
One of them is for me
Where is lie or truth?
And leading by the calling heart
My hope I will keep!
There is only step I'll made to
The forms beyond this side -
I sleep again and watching the sky.
Tonight I'll find my way to
The secrets of real life
And wonder flow will rush through my mind
5 HEAR ME
Before, like you went away from here
How I can to believe,
That we’re not together?
So cold, the world is empty place for me
The snow is falling around of me
It will be forever…
But every night I still cry
I feel your flame inside
Please never fade away!
Now you are not by my side
But your shape before my eyes
And the memories remain
So still I say
Hear me my friend!
Now or never be my guide
Hear me my friend!
Why I cannot live my own life?
I need you to stay
With me and everything is got to be all right
Hear me my friend!
Hear me my friend!
Hear me my friend!
Your voice doesn’t sing this song of dreams,
There’s no smile of your lips,
My fingers can’t touch your face
I hold silver thread of my belief
All I want now is to see
Brightness of the new day
Filling my life this realize –
I couldn’t keep my pride
And let you go away
Now you are not by my side
But your shape before my eyes
And the memories remain
So still I say
6 STAY WITH ME
Somewhere in the wasteland
I am walking to the distant places
Where are hiding all my thoughts
About you
Many times I’m spending
Trying to see and understand
These all the reasons, why I’m staying here
Without you
We are not together
And I don’t know why it’s happened
Sometimes life is playing jokes with us
What can we do?
Now I’m understanding –
There’s no reason to pretend
Because I see that all my life
I’ll search for you
Now it is time to awake our heats,
To find our souls even it’s hard
Now it is time, when our dreams come true
I’ll find this path with you
Just stay with me
I’ll follow you
Just let me see
I will be free
Because of you
You’ve changing me
8 INSIDE THE RISING SUN
Time like waters running out
And don’t you try to scream and shout
Today you’re crawling and you’re still
To fall from your grace
You need to stop your fall
Don’t try to hide the time to go
Away from shadow of each day
And all around is
Nothing, only things in which
You always will believe
It is law for every man
Why can’t it be real?
Longing for a better life
People are loosing all their minds
Inside, there’s only the deepest crime –
They forget about all
The world around is getting older
You feel that you can loose control
It’s time to understand your life
And all around is
Nothing, only things in which
You always will believe
It is law for every man
Why can’t it be real?
Burning in our minds
Call of the Rising Sun
All the powers we can take
Inside of us
We can only trust
To our thirst for love
We can see our fun
Inside of this Rising Sun
Through the chains of life
And through the walls of empty days
Together with Rising Sun
We’ll rise upon our fates
Will come true the things in which
We always will believe
It is law for every man
Why can’t it be real?
9 CAN YOU FEEL THE PAIN
When night is coming here
Then I following this voice,
Which is calling me somewhere to days of my life
I’ve seen this before
No one can see me here
Walking by the ocean’s shore.
I hear the waves, they are prompting me how
To feel some new hope
I ask the ocean
To set me free
Can you feel the pain,
When mist is falling,
To feel the pain,
When you are alone?
Can you feel the pain,
When years are running?
Feel the pain.
Now you cannot stop
To feel the pain.
Away from the city’s lights,
Away from the senseless game,
Striving my soul to embrace the night.
I hear you again
Gazing into dark waters,
What I’m searching for?
I cannot keep all this sorrow inside.
Now it’s time to go
If you can’t save me,
Then set me free
10 TRAVEL
This surrender –
One of wrong ways,
In the desert
I can find this place
Where the answers
So clear I see,
I know one day
You’ll be here with me
This empty lonely road,
I walk to my purpose.
The shine of your holy soul
I will keep
More roads in different times,
But it’s all the same way.
More visions of skies, like
I see your face.
Traveling to immortal life
I can hear you calling me.
I believe that is truth, what I’ve seen
In my dream.
11 ІЛЮЗІЯ ЖИТТЯ
Вранці відкривши очі
Бачу новий фільм –
Ще одна серія з «Ілюзіі життя»
Знову повірити штовхає у вічний біль
«Скорися нам,
Не вір думкам!»
Я не чую твій шепіт,
Не бачу твоїх справ
Сум і відчай у серці
Я довго тримав
Я не чую твій шепіт,
Не бачу твоїх справ
Я не хочу це нести
Я все вже віддав
Забутися враз,
Відчути знов все –
Живе але пусте
Чи знову торкнутися зачинених дверей?
Я відчуваю, знаю вихід звідси є
Туди де час
Не знайде нас
Я не чую твій шепіт,
Не бачу твоїх справ
Сум і відчай у серці
Я довго тримав
Я не чую твій шепіт,
Не бачу твоїх справ
Я не хочу це нести
Я все вже віддав
Все, що відбувається навколо – це гра!
Розум не звільняється, лише сльози в очах
Десь він є, той справжній світ
До нього я прийду
Відкину біль,
Розіб’ю сум!
