Erosion of life I see it makes the passion burn in me Life it always withers away Death will eternally stay Corpses in their coffins forever rest in peace ?

We craved the light from the darkness It’s a morning of misfortune The dawn of a mankind Listen to me instead of a blind folk’s speak Forget the mature plan We are but humans you’ll see (chorus) I can hear the silence See invisible emptiness Tarnish the halo of your guidance And the night is [...]

==================== (lyrics: J. Rechberger) (music: E. Holopainen, T. Koivusaari & J. Rechberger) We have to know, we have to see Religions so many, which one of them are so real, That it makes us to believe ?
