Beyond the Stars (Aether) Dark Angel, my heart calls to you Forever I'll long for your void to break into Your light resounds within my soul With you, I know that I am whole Dark Angel, my heart calls to you I long to find my truth Hold me close, while there is no one left to see that all the stars are gone and only shine for you and me... Now we are one with endless dark, with ancient song of spheres... Far from this world, we leave behind our fears... In the fiery magic of primeval spark, the essence of everything had come to life... Wisdom of mind and goodness of heart, all virtues we've shattered, neglected, degraded... And now we're lost, we're wandering, afraid, Will we ever find our source again? That pure sentience that unifies all... Eyes tightly closed, and it's easier to see Minds may be lost, but we feel that we are free Hands holding soft, just to know that we are near All we believe could be gone, but we're still here From the mist within, our consciousness ascends... The distant noise of our thoughts echoes in our minds' emptiness... And then we cross the bridge to join the realm where stillness reigns...

Fly (Air) 04:32
Fly (Air) If you let go I will lead you, show you you're never astray... If you forgive I will heal you, take all your worries away... Within, you can't escape the soul you are, but I can teach you how to see your being from a far and reach for the stars... If you pursue I will take you to lightness of heart that you crave... If you withstand I will guide you, and prove you're tenacious and brave... Breathe through me, hold on to my wings of gold and I'll show you how to rise... Breathe through me, fly with me, dive and ascend on my wind, take me in and explore... My world is boundless and wide, Blessed with ease and that freedom of mind that you long for... Before your eyes, now you see your visions breaking... All your dreams fade away, will you let them leave you? Cry forever, know me never... Breathe through me Fly with me Breathe through me Fly with me Fly Fly with me Fly

Innocence (Water) People say, we live this life to be heard, to become "someone", cause emotion's just a word... You've been cast away, told you are weak if you feel, taught to overcome, to deny and to conceal... But I wash away your emptiness, rush inside your heart of stone... I reflect your innocence, I'm the one you can't disown... Deep in your mind of a warrior, you still remember when we were one... Now you just crave to be stronger, but all your fears have come undone... I'll bring you to yourself... I'll pour into your heart the truth of who you are... Self-control, bounds and restrains we all learn, they can't satisfy innate motion that we yearn... Ever-changeable, I bring forth life to be free, And I clarify what you think you'll never see... And I rush into your emptiness, bring the truth you can't disown... I reflect your innocence, I'm the one you've always known... I'll be your deliverance, Wear your iron shield away, I define your innocence... I'm the one you can't betray... I bring the tide that purifies, changes the world before your eyes, turns it into river of emotion... And don't deny the fears you feel, they're only scars that I can heal... Let me in and dive into my ocean... I'll be your deliverance... I will fill your emptiness... I can save your heart of stone... I define your innocence...

In Flames (Fire) You dream and you fantasize that someday you'll unchain all your yearnings and desires, all your passion... You long to release your ties, to give in to your lust, to submit to what you crave... But you have to realize every urge has its flame that could bring you either bliss or damnation... That fire could be your demise, you'd believe you've been freed, but instead you'd be a slave... Lost within myself, as I walk through my mind, I can only feel this need to break free... I'll deny, pretend that I'm blind... Deep inside, I want you to see... Faithfulness is real and forever, but I'll lose control... This fire will burn through its chains... And without, I feel I'm not whole... Lies collide, and only shame remains... Our darkest hour hides what we yearn... Bound by our passion's power we're lost, there's no return... Confined to fire, we can't unlearn the curse of our desire... The lives we broke still burn... Let it go, let it go... it's too late to ignite these remnants again... And they lay desolate, empty hopes and faded pain... Let it fall, let it fall in the embers where I cry... Raging flames swallowed all, only smoke of last goodbye remained... Let it go... Let it fall... The ruin before your eyes shows the cruel aftermath, the duality of thrill and desire... And now you will recognize the illusion of will, and the frightening force of fire...

From the Ashes (Earth) I don't want to rise, but the sun always comes... The sun I don't want to hear whispering about gratefulness and joy, and something called love... This dark is my shelter I cherish... Safe in disguise, I watch how unknown all becomes... Impression unclear, a wish to destroy, but still a wish to fly above... Will it last, or will it just perish... I don't want to rise, but the sun always comes... The sun I don't want to feel playing on my skin, bringing me to life, one more time...
