Who's the guy in the mirror
I've never seen before
Afraid to let him in here
So I better lock the door
I forget how to remember
The present and the past
Every day is an adventure
Every day might be the last
Like a face of a stranger
Look me in the eye
Like a face of a stranger
It is time to say good-bye
Many moments full of flashbacks
Reflect another life
Reality has turned black
It's gonna be alright
I'm living in a dreamworld
Always on my own
And missing all the true words
Where is everybody gone
On a face of a stranger
Not afraid to cry
On a face of a stranger
No more time to reason why
Look a stranger in the eye
Fading oceans of memories
Bring tears of anguish and shame
A song of vanishing melodies
Where days and nights sound the same
Time is endless for evermore
Like dreams on wind's golden gale
Behind the rim of the final door
The sounds of darkness prevail
Like a face of a stranger
Look me in the eye
Like a face of a stranger
It is time to say good-bye
Like a face of a stranger
Look me in the eye
Like a face of a stranger
It is time to say good-bye
On a face of a stranger
Not afraid to cry
On a face of a stranger
No more time to reason why
Who’s the guy in the mirror - I see a face of a stranger
Always on my own - where is everybody gone
I wish I could remember - but I’ve lost it all forever
Look a stranger in the eye
A knight in shining armour rides
The mountain ridge and peak
His glowing eyes are open wide
A saviour to the weak
Eternal life of sacrifice
No silver and no gold
A grand and mystic paradise
A story to be told
Rising like fever and breaking the chains
Firing an unending flame
Every heart is burning
Every pain returning
Like a lightning raging high
Heading to the morning light
The tempest's rage increase
And dauntless spirits lifted high
The golden realm of peace
Windless land of livid grim
Crowned with twining snakes
Fighting on the war within
The twilight never fades
Rising like fever and breaking the chains
Firing an unending flame
Every heart is burning
Every pain returning
Like a lightning raging high
Every heart is burning
But a soul will never die
Every pain returning
Like a starlight from the sky
His humble soul in sadness lay
Compressed by shadows drear
Gladness seemed so far away
But pain and grief so near
The billows of disgorging sin
That wrap him like a shroud
The wicked have no peace within
Their wailings shrill and loud
Rising like fever and breaking the chains
Firing an unending flame
Every heart is burning
But a soul will never die
Every pain returning
Like a lightning raging high
Every heart is burning
But a kiss can never lie
Every pain returning
Like a starlight from the sky
On the horizon
Where the sea meets night
I see the face of a warrior
We hear them crying
In the fading light
A shadow falls on a foreigner
They long for the distance
They reach for the sky
At the end of a rainbow
Risin' up high
Where the angels fly
Where the angels fly
They fall in silence
With a saddening sound
And all that's lefts a memorial
The skies still wonder
Neither lost nor found
Remaining humble and glorious
They long for the distance
They reach for the sky
At the end of a rainbow
Risin' up high
Where the angels fly
Flying high
Where the angels fly
At the end of a rainbow risin' up high
They roam the heavens
On wings of gold
A shining light full of harmony
With no surrender
Not a lie untold
Forever now and eternally
They long for the distance
They reach for the sky
At the end of a rainbow
Risin' up high
Where the angels fly
Where the angels fly
Where the angels fly
Where the angels fly
Where the angels fly
Flying high
Where the angels fly - where the angels fly
At the end of a rainbow - risin' up high
