Light My Way

Verse 1
It’s in human nature to feel down sometimes
it doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you
and if there is no sparkle, no light in your eyes
I will be there to guide you through
sometimes a little help is all you need
sometimes it’s closer than you think
Chorus
Descend into the darkness while holding my
hand, we’ll be together no, I won’t pretend,
there’s no denial we need to rely on others at times
to light our way
Verse 2
it doesn’t really matter what you’ll have to face
you might walk through the fire and fall from grace
you’ll always have me by your side, please don’t fear
just know there’s someone out there when you need
sometimes when it gets harder to go on
remember that to rise you need to fall
Chorus
Descend into the darkness while holding my
hand, we’ll be together no, I won’t pretend,
there’s no denial we need to rely on others at times
to light our way
Step out of the shadows, ‘cause I can see
You’re stronger now than ever, so go break the chains
of your misfortunes and you’ll have me with you
lighting your way
There’s no more pain
No more pain
Chorus
Descend into the darkness while holding my
hand, we’ll be together no, I won’t pretend,
there’s no denial we need to rely on others at times
to light our way
Step out of the shadows, ‘cause I can see
You’re stronger now than ever, so go break the chains
of your misfortunes and you’ll have me with you
lighting your way
There’s no more pain

Verse 1
For how many days have I tried to find my way?
I’ve even lost faith…
For how many nights have I tried to survive
in this barren winter land?
Chorus
Staring at the sky I will hold my breath
hoping that I’ll win the fight
it’s so dark and cold but I will stand
when I see a ray of light
Verse 2
It’s so complicated when you’re on your own
nothing is changing here
the powers of nature I have never known
All seem to challenge me
Chorus
Staring at the sky I will hold my breath
hoping that I’ll win the fight
it’s so dark and cold but I will stand
when I see a ray of light
Verse 3
This blizzard is ending
the sky’s getting clear
and the horizon appears
before there was nothing and when I start to fear
I see a star shining at me
Chorus
Staring at the sky I will hold my breath
hoping that I’ll win the fight
it’s so dark and cold but I will stand
when I see a ray of light

The New Me
04:24
|
|||
Verse 1
My past is cutting me
without a knife
all the things that I’ve been through
they made me blind
But suddenly I realise it’s not against me
This brightest light I recognize
Pre-chorus
it’s coming right from within me
I need to let go off all the darkness
Chorus
And I accept myself as I am, as I have been and as I will be (I will be)
I’ll let the light shine through me and fill my life with new sense, there’s the new me, there’s the new me
Verse 2
it might just feel like death
when you start living free
from all the heaviness in your heart
it’s nice to feel that I have taken
the right turn now towards a better tomorrow for me
Pre-chorus
and I will appreciate this,
A lone star that I am is now reborn
Chorus
And I accept myself as I am, as I have been and as I will be (I will be)
I’ll let the light shine through me and fill my life with new sense, there’s the new me, there’s the new me
Bridge
it’s hard to start seeing life
in colours that are too bright
when your past was black and white
but I’ve been dead for too long
I’m ready to be reborn
alive and feeling strong
Chorus
And I accept myself as I am, as I have been and as I will be (I will be)
I’ll let the light shine through me and fill my life with new sense, there’s the new me, there’s the new me
Outro
let the light wash over me
show me there’s something more to be
walk into the light and see
that there’s nothing there to fear

Verse 1
What is that sadness
in your eyes I see
there is no doubt
that you are in need
of your guiding light
to carry you through life
maybe it’s not the time
Chorus
Seek and you will find
that missing part of you
someone to make you complete
and brighten your days
just don’t make haste
it will come naturally
you just need to believe
Verse 2
I know you’ve been searching
but this world is cruel
won’t make it easy for most
but there is that person
as lonely as you
maybe your paths will cross
Chorus
Seek and you will find
that missing part of you
someone to make you complete
and brighten your days
just don’t make haste
it will come naturally
you just need to believe
Bridge
we all come to this world alone
and we leave alone just as well
but the lives we are going through
feel too empty for that
Chorus
Seek and you will find
that missing part of you
someone to make you complete
and brighten your days
just don’t make haste
it will come naturally
you need to believe
Chorus
Seek and you will find
that missing part of you
someone to make you complete
and brighten your days
just don’t make haste
it will come naturally
you just need to believe

Darkest Hour
04:44
|
|||
Verse 1
I could never imagine that my life would take this turn
that all the light and hope I had would go away
you’re no longer around so now I feel like I am lost
it feels like I’m a comet hurtling through space
to meet its end
Pre-chorus
where do I find the strength
to live like I used to,
to see through the darkness that’s filling my mind?
Chorus
There’s no one to rely on, there’s no guiding hand
there’s only emptiness I’ve felt inside so far
The help will not be coming, there’s only regret
the pain is killing me and I can’t fight cause there’s no more light
Verse 2
I thought before that I would always have somebody by my side
to walk with me through all the challenges of life
I see that I was mistaken, now I’m all alone
left to be devoured by the darkest thoughts with no chance to hide
Pre-chorus
how did I lose myself
in this demonic maze?
don’t know where to go now, my eyes are so blind
Chorus
There’s no one to rely on, there’s no guiding hand
there’s only emptiness I’ve felt inside so far
The help will not be coming, there’s only regret
the pain is killing me and I can’t fight cause there’s no more light
Bridge
There’s no more light…
I am at the bottom of the deepest ocean
trying to survive but there’s no power left
hoping to be rescued, but I know I’m dying
no one will appear and take me out of here
I have fallen low, this is my darkest hour
I have nothing to believe in, no success
I have given up and I accept my fate
that nothing lights my way
Chorus
There’s no one to rely on, there’s no guiding hand
there’s only emptiness I’ve felt inside so far
The help will not be coming, there’s only regret
the pain is killing me and I can’t fight cause there’s no more light

Spearhead
04:40
|
|||
Verse 1
In the past I always doubted myself
but since then I have grown
I realised there are the only two ways
you win or you fall
it’s curious that in the weakness there’s power
you just need to find it inside
and when you do, there is no chance someone stops you
you’ll know what you want, there’s no more need to hide
Chorus
I’ve come a long way and found my inner strength
I’ve now returned to having faith in myself
All that I am now you cannot take away
You think you’ll break me and
I dare you to try, but it’s a waste of….
Verse 2
…time will tell if I’ve completely let go
of all the thoughts that were not truly mine
but now it feels like there are more open doors
that I can enter without a warning sign
things have finally started coming my way
and nobody is questioning me
there’s no longer any uncertainty
I know where I want to go and I know how to get there
Chorus
I’ve come a long way and found my inner strength
I’ve now returned to having faith in myself
All that I am now you cannot take away
You think you’ll break me and
I dare you to try, but it’s a waste of time
Bridge
It felt like I was sleeping and then I woke up
into the world where I can make decisions
based on my own thoughts and feelings that I have
and no one is going to judge me
it feels like I woke up
much stronger than I was
I’ll overcome any challenge
the problems that I’ve faced
all start to disappear
they’ve never done me any damage
Chorus
‘Cause I’ve come a long way and found my inner strength
I’ve now returned to having faith in myself
All that I am now you cannot take away
You think you’ll break me and
I dare you to try, but it’s a waste of time

Your Haunting Memory
05:25
|
|||
Verse 1
Sometimes I think I’m going crazy
I’m chasing shadows in the dark
but you are gone and I’ve got nothing
left to turn this darkness into light
and there is just no way to
fill this void within my heart
cause you’re a spirit roaming freely
the places that cannot be found
Pre-chorus
I thought I heard your voice
I thought I felt your touch
But no, I just imagined this
I miss you so much
Chorus
I can hear you in the distance
the whispers still resound in here
I close my eyes and for an instant
I feel you breathing next to me
But you’re not here, you’re just a memory
that I won’t let go without a fight
the pain of loss seems so unending
I have to live through this somehow
Have to live through this somehow
Have to live through this somehow
Verse 2
It all happened oh so quickly
I turned away and then you left
and I got stuck in time frustrated
with how unfair this life can get
one second we are happy,
we’re making plans inside our minds
and then the whole world just goes crumbling
around our feet and drags us down
Pre-chorus
I thought I heard your voice
I thought I felt your touch
But no, I just imagined this
I miss you so much
Chorus
I can hear you in the distance
the whispers still resound in here
I close my eyes and for an instant
I feel you breathing next to me
But you’re not here, you’re just a memory
that I won’t let go without a fight
the pain of loss seems so unending
I have to live through this somehow
Bridge
I have to live through this somehow
I have to live through this
Verse 3
But then again if I could ask you,
you wouldn’t want me to feel lost
you’d say “just try, pick up the pieces
of your upset and shattered soul”
I know you’re still there watching
and helping me to struggle through
and I can feel the storm’s subsiding
revealing stars, they’re lit by you
Chorus
I could hear you in the distance
the whispers still resound in here
I closed my eyes and for an instant
I felt you breathing next to me
But you’re not here, you’re just a memory
that I will keep close to my heart
the pain of loss seemed so unending
but I have lived through this somehow
I have lived through this somehow
I have lived through this somehow

At Your Mercy
03:30
|
|||
Verse 1
I’ve felt discomfort for some time like something has a hold of me, like there’s a noose on my neck someone keeps pulling, like every step of mine is pre-decided and I suffocate
and I suffocate…
Chorus
No more manipulations, I have lost enough time
it’s a brand new day, a shifting paradigm,
I won’t be at your mercy, I’ll break free from your grasp,
so how does it feel when you fall in your trap?
Verse 2
Your voice inside my head got louder when you chained me to your will,
you made me feel small and invisible
but I have found a new strength within to defy you
now let’s see how you like it and who’s gonna be laughing
Chorus
No more manipulations, I have lost enough time
it’s a brand new day, a shifting paradigm,
I won’t be at your mercy, I’ll break free from your grasp,
so how does it feel when you fall in your own trap?
Bridge
You fell in your own trap
you tried keeping me down
but you don’t really know me
You had control over me
But I won’t stand for this
I will run far away from here
Yeah
Things are going to change
‘cause your power is lost
though it feels a bit strange
now I’m ready to go
Chorus
with no manipulations, I have lost enough time
it’s a brand new day, a shifting paradigm,
I won’t be at your mercy, I’ll break free from your grasp,
so how does it feel when you fall in your own trap?
yeah

Ignite The Spark
04:50
|
|||
Verse 1
it takes a while to understand yourself,
to see you’re more than you have thought before,
you’ve had this feeling growing inside for so long…
the feeling you’re the one to help yourself,
the one to find the greatness in your heart,
and give your life a brand new start
Pre-chorus
you’re losing your patience, you strive for a change
there’s a fire that’s burning inside
Chorus
The time has come to ignite the spark
Let your life take a new turn right now
(And you know you’ll succeed)
Verse 2
You’re tired of hearing cries within your mind
and feeling like somebody’s pushing you
towards a better future, you shouldn’t resist
It only feels so difficult at first
reminding that you’re human after all
but you’ve been sent to Earth to live, not to exist
Pre-chorus
you’re losing your patience, you strive for a change
there’s a fire that’s burning inside
Chorus
The time has come to ignite the spark
Let your life take a new turn right now
(And you know you’ll succeed)
The time has come, take a leap of faith
Leave the zone where no comfort’s left
(let your heart start with a brand new beat)
Bridge
Let your life take a new turn now
Leave the zone where no comfort’s left
You’ve always been waiting for a better tomorrow
without taking action you keep getting lost
now you’ve found a power residing within you
it’s whispering gently for you to go on
you don’t wanna stop now ‘cause you’re feeling greater
your life’s getting better and better each day
what you thought was ashes is now burning bright
so there’s no turning back now you’ll go the right way
Chorus
The time has come to ignite the spark
Let your life take a new turn right now
(And you know you’ll succeed)
The time has come, take a leap of faith
Leave the zone where no comfort’s left
(let your heart start with a brand new beat)

Until The End
04:58
|
|||
Verse 1
Life has a way of testing people’s feelings
by building the walls between them and seeing if they break through
we were like two stars who couldn’t reach each other but somewhere deep inside we knew our paths would cross again
Pre-chorus
and we felt the shifting tides
as the moon began to rise
we’ll get lost and found again
we’ll stay together till the end
Chorus
And we’ll step into the unknown
always walking side by side
we don’t know what the future holds
but I will be with you day and night
You say you’ll be there for me
every moment like this is so dear to me
It feels like we had to compete with life
to become complete once more
Verse 2
Lies
that we’ve heard from far too many people
saying we shouldn’t try to work it out between ourselves
Fine, now it’s fine and we have realised that we shouldn’t be too selfish or we’ll always be alone
Pre-chorus
and we feel the shifting tides
as the moon begins to rise
we have lost and found again
we’re together till the end
Chorus
And we’ll step into the unknown
always walking side by side
we don’t know what the future holds
but I will be with you day and night
You say you’ll be there for me
every moment like this is so dear to me
It feels like we had to compete with life
to become complete once more
Bridge
Look at the sky
the sun is out
the symbol of us reuniting again
and we will shine
we’ll start anew
no one will stand in our way anymore
we’ll make it work
now we are whole
now there’s a chance to stay and not drift apart
we should believe
that we will see
we’ll see this through together,
we are one
Chorus
And we’ll step into the unknown
always walking side by side
we don’t know what the future holds
but I will be with you day and night
You say you’ll be there for me
every moment like this is so dear to me
It feels like we had to compete with life
to become complete once more
