Stratovarius - Deep unknown

 

 

 

Taking a chance
Go again
To the great unknown

Facing your fears and feel
what's on your mind when you're alone

Fall into the sea
So you will be free
Into the deep
You disappear

Dive deeper into the ocean
You'll find more about your emotions
As you go far beyond imaginary borderlines
Into the deep unknown---

Need to breath, might drown
You can't inhale
No one around, sliding down
Time passes by, you can not fail

As light fades away
There's so much to gain
You're holding on
It's not in vain

Dive deeper into the ocean
You'll find more about your emotions
As you go far beyond imaginary borderlines

Dive deeper into the ocean
You'll find more about your emotions
As you go far beyond imaginary borderlines

Stratovarius - Unbreakable

 

Stratovarius - Unbreakable

 

Reckless wheel of time, we follow how it flies by
We still keep believing in white and comforting lies.

When it's our turn, together we stay stronger
We lay still and silent and watch how our world burns for eternity.

You carry me away, 'til 'morrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait, this moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul
You make me whole.

I want to live this second forever
Always together, forevermore.

I hold my breath and wait.

Reckless wheel of life, we see how years keep flying by
I never really cared until I opened my eyes.

The final day awaits, and the firestorm's getting closer
Under falling stars we will seal our fate for eternity.

You carry me away, 'til 'morrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait, this moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul,
You make me whole.
I want to live this second forever,
Always together, forevermore.

I hold my breath and wait 'til the end, until 'morrow we're unbreakable.

[Solo]

You carry me away, 'til 'morrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait, this moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul,
You make me whole.
I want to live this second forever
Always together, forevermore.

We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore.
We are stronger than ever, always together, forevermore.

I hold my breath and wait 'til the end, until 'morrow we're unbreakable

Stratovarius - Eagle heart

Stratovarius  - Eagle heart

 

 

 

All through the night he is lying awake
Wondering how much more can he take
Watching the walls where the shadows dance
Drifting away into a trance

And his eyes are blazing with fire

Dreams burnt to ashes so many times
Highest of mountains, still he climbs
Ready to fly cause he just can't stay
Flame burning brighter with every day

And his eyes are blazing with fire
Longing for the deepest desire

Heart of an eagle
He flies through the rainbow
Into a new world and finds the sun
Spreading his wings above all the sorrows
The glory of Eagleheart

Fever is burning in his veins
Determined with courage breaking the chains
Back against the wall under blood red skies
Prepared to fight until he dies.And his eyes are blazing with fire
Longing for the deepest desire

Heart of an eagle
He flies through the rainbow
Into a new world and finds the sun
Spreading his wings above all the sorrows
The glory of Eagleheart

Heart of an eagle
He flies through the rainbow
Into a new world and finds the sun
Spreading his wings above all the sorrows
The glory of Eagleheart

Stratovarius - Halcyon Days

 

 

 

 

 

What I feel inside my mind
Is driving me insane
It's so hard to explain
What lies behind it all, what goes around
So I'm twisting here within loneliness

And all the pain inside now
Don't matter anyhow

There's something in the air
Something isn't there
Something that I had just yesterday
Every time I try
Reaching for the sky
Something's coming up and blocks my way
And I know that-I just need
To walk away from this
There's something in the air
Something isn't there
The storm rages on
I'm waiting for my halcyon days

I will try to avoid it all
But they try to pull me back
If I try will I fall off this track

I don't care cos I'm free
I'm still twisting here within loneliness

And all the pain inside now...
There's something in the air...
