• Album : Reckoning Night
• Année : 2005

Paroles :

I am your poison candygram,
The love that's meant to fade away
Vade retro, alter ego, move aside, I'm choking on this life
I think I tolerate your hate, as long as you're afraid
All I wanted was to be with you and suffer every day...

Under the moon I hold a wake for a promise torn
Mortally wounded, feelings sheltered me
Once again my shadow will enter your life
Time to walk with me the last mile

I read a book about a man, a love, a woman, how they died
How i was waved aside, listen how the headless doves cry
I truly see a madman in the mirror when i'm weak
I spent a year in love before i realized it's me

Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore
Make me believe it, oh i know you're lying
Broke the vow i thought you made, my angel,why...
Could i let you wait out the night

Mother always said « my son, do the noble thing... »
You have to finish what you started, no matter what,
Now, sit, watch and learn...
« It's not how long you live, but what your morals say »
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't a word...don't say a word

It won't be long now, love, like mist i slowly fill the room
I place a black candle on your chest,
The path of night is manifest
I never wanted us to end up in this catatonic phase
It wasn't me who ran away, you made me stray...

Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore
Make me believe it, oh i know you lie
Broke the vow i thought you made, my angel, why ...
Settling the score, we pass the twilight...

Mother always said « my son, do the noble thing... »
You have to finish what you started, no matter what,
Now, sit, watch and learn...
« It's not how long you live, but what your morals say »
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't a word...don't say a word

Strawberry blonde, your stranglehold
On my heart is bound to end
I suppose, life sometimes,
It doesn't go the way it was meant
Though you never were a believer,
I assure you : i won't die before you
You read the book now,
The part « Ashes to ashed, dust to dust »

Short is the fight of this little starling
Love sounds familiar, but the emotion escapes me
I will carpe the diem while it 's still here,
And see how the fear of death becomes her

We had it all so sweet
Made for me, you, indeed...
Big secret, small the lie
Don't cry for me, oh, argentite

No word you say tonight
Can make this be alright
I'll help you follow through
Remember this ?Pacta sunt servanda

...The wounds are too deep,
I need to keep the scars
To prove there was a time
When i loved something more than life

Unlike the last time here,
I now have the means and a will sincere
Yourk night is now here near
Unfortunate for you, this makes me your God...

Closing your eyes, don't ever say you love me, whore
You never meant a word,I know you lied
When there is life, there is despair, indulge me now
And stay alive this night...I promise you the end before the first light arrives

• Titre : Full Moon
• Album : Ecliptica
• Année : 2003

Paroles :

Sitting in a corner all alone,
staring from the bottom of his soul,
watching the night come in from the window

It'll all collapse tonight, the fullmoon is here again
In sickness and in health, understanding so demanding
It has no name, there's one for every season
Makes him insane to know

Running away from it all
"I'll be safe in the cornfields", he thinks Hunted by his own,
again he feels the moon rising on the sky

Find a barn which to sleep in, but can he hide anymore
Someones at the door, understanding too demanding
Can this be wrong, it's love that is not ending
Makes him insane to know

She should not lock the open door
(run away run away, run way)
Fullmoon is on the sky and He's not a man anymore
See the change in Him but can't
(run away run away, run away)
See what became out of her man... Fullmoon

Swimming across the bay,
the nite is gray, so calm today
She doesn't wanna wait.
"We've gotta make the love complete tonight..."

In the mist of (the or your?) morning he cannot fight anymore
Thousands moons or more, he's been howling
Knock on the door, and scream that is soon ending
Mess on the floor again...

She should not lock the open door
(run away run away, run away)
Fullmoon is on the sky and is not a man anymore
Sees the change in him but can't
(run away, run away, run away)
See what became out of her man

She should not lock the open door
(run away run away, run away)
Fullmoon is on the sky and is not a man anymore
Sees the change in him but can't
(run away, run away, run away)
See what became out of her darling man

She should not lock the open door
(run away run away, run away)
Fullmoon is on the sky and is not a man anymore

See what became out of her man

• Titre : Sing in Silence
• Album : Silence
• Année : 2001

Paroles :

You were daddy's girl nice and sweet

Never in trouble mommy's honey
Little child who just couldn't see
The pressure from her so called friends
Was simply too much

The monkey slowly climbed on her back
Offering an aid for her pain
Giving love and care
No-one cared, no-one cared...

Fragile like a rose on the snow
Eating all your strength and your money
Living in the shade day and night
Never letting sunshine in your eyes like before

Cannot shake the monkey off your back
Did I see a spark on your eye
Was it just the last light of hope
That died, hope that died

Forgive me, Father, my daily sin...

How can I forgive you, never leave you
You know that if you live like, you will die like
Haven of Emotion, Mournful Ocean
Heiress of the Evening Sings in silence

I need to have now, my daily sin...

For all your life I prayed for time
To show you where the light lies
Now this is the end
One rose for the memory of the innosence...

I know, my Father, I cannot win...
Never will forgive you, never leave you
You know that if you live like, you will die like
How can I erase your pain and aid you
When Death wants to kiss you and you want kiss Him back...

Paroles :

Paid In Full - Sonata Arctica

I was nowhere near ready when all it ended
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you

You gave me the chance, time and again in vain
Now my feelings for you
Every tear, every smile, paid in full
Wrecked the chain, but no longer can I take the pain

[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you

Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So again only blamed myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, it's not too late

Did you change? I did too
Love can grow from the last grain

[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you

I need you less and less every day
Fix this moral decay
Yet I've grown to love you even more

My fault that you then turned another cheek
You mouth the words, you're not ready to speak
You're scared of me, although I never had a clue
That I'd become so much stronger than you

[Solo]

I will take what you have for me now if it's not too late
If you like I will leave, I will not miss the last train again

[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
It's hard for me to love your face right now
I'm waiting, hating, needing, being me

I need you less and less
And every day leads us farther away
From that moment

[Chorus]
It's hard for me to hate myself right now
Finally I'm understanding me
One day we may have whole new me's and you's
But first I need to learn to love me too
