Only Human Songtext

von At Vance

1. The Time Has Come

You took their lives
And you took their souls
To be the king of their land
You brought them misery
Anger and pain
To keep the crown in your hands

But soon they will tear you
Down to the crowd
The prophecy's coming true
It's death and revenge what they shout

The time has come
To face your desteny
Your life is done
And you're burning for eternity

You promised them heaven
And brought them to hell
Behind your blood shedded walls
Why don't you see
You're under a spell
And madness has taken its toll

And they won't forgive you
Soon you will die
And noone will help you thru
The price that you pay for your lies

The time has come
To face your desteny
Your life is done
And you're burning for eternity

2. Only Human

On and on you keep telling me lies
But what does it take to make your more wise
Take a look at the things we've done
Together we were strong when it all began
When we trought that we could conquer it all
No mountain to high nothing too tall
Why is your fire burning so low
Did you lose all your faith
Did you forget'bout the dreams that we had
I can't bear your mistakes and that's driving me mad
Nowhere to go and nowhere to hide
Two hearts as one i'm still willing to fight

So do you believe in the force of our love
Why don't you lend me helping hand

Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling
Cause I gave you my heart and my soul

Did you expect me to pay all your dues
Why did you gamble whit all we had to lose
Now that we're lost and the sky's closing in
We ruled a game that we couldn't win
Building a castle whit our sweat and our blood
Stone after stone and our clothes stained whit me
Mud
Noting to hard and our forces unite
But we've torn apart and we've killed our light
What about all the dreams that we had
Why did you trade in the good for the bad
Wasn't it worth to take hold of the flame
You turned away but what was your aim

I still believe in the force of our love
Why don't you lend me helping hand

Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling

3. Take My Pain

I can feel the heat
As it burns my skin
Can you hear my creed
I'm paying for my sins
Rainy days and sleepless nights
I've been thru it all
Watch me now as I fall
Can't you hear my call

You have gone away
I could not make you stay
And all that is left is

P A I N - Release me
P R I D E - Don't tease me
S H A M E - Why don't you take away my pain

The chances that i've dared to take
Couldn't pay their dues
The words i've said the good and the bad
Why did you refuse
Now i'm here all by myself
You coldn't bring me down
Watch me now i'm ten feet tall
There goes out my call

You have gone away
There's nothing left to say
All that is left is

P A I N - Release me
P R I D E - Don't tease me
S H A M E - Why don't you take away my pain

So tell me why did you leave me
Where was I wrong
Tell me why did you break my heart
What was the reason

P A I N - Release me
P R I D E - Don't tease me
S H A M E - Why don't you take away my pain

4. Fly To The Rainbow

Heading towards your wildest dreams
But you don't reach the end
You'll be on a never ending journey in this land
Time will tell if it's worth to carry on
Until the day og truth you'll be the lonley one

It's a race you can't win
A fight whit no end
But where are you now

Open your eyes
Take away these lies
Cause you have been alone too long
Caught in your dreams

Fly to the rainbow
Unbreak the darkness around you
Out of the blackbow
Into the light that surrounds you

...out of the dark into the light

You keep on searching for the answeres
You may never find
Until you learn to face the truth
You try to leave behind
You won't see until the day you'll learn
To turn around and try to cross
The bridges that you've burned

It's a race you can't win
A fight without end
But where are you now

Open your eyes
Take away these lies
Cause you have been alone too long
Caught in your dreams

Fly to the rainbow
Unbreak the darkness around you
Out of the blackbow
Into the light that surrounds you

...It's a race you can't win...

5. Hold Your Fire

He was a knight of the king
Who's end was near
He governed a country
Where the people lived in fear

He was following the calls
And tearing down these walls
In search for glory

One stormy night painfull screams
Made him wake up from his dreams
And a mysterious voice
Told him that he had no other choice
Setting out for the land of disgrace
To kill the master and stop the raids
But long before the dawn
He left his town to a place unknow

So time will make more wise
But he had no disguise to desteny

He gallopped wildly thru the woods
The crown trambling from his horse
He's got the look in his eyes
He will never give up
Cause he's ready to fight

Hold your fire
Keep the flame forever in your heart
Burning disire
Keep the flame in your heart

He rode thru night and day
On his tireless horse
Thru the sun and the rain
Never deviating from his course
And he got to a strange place
Where the air was filled whit haze
And it made his flesh creep
Where the trees had no leaves

He was following the calls
And tearing down these walls
In search for glory

Two guards in front the door
Torn branches coverin the floor
Now that he was sure
He had found the goals
That he's searching for

Hold your fire...

[instrumental]

7. Take Me Away

Somewhere beyond
In the dark there's a light
Taking my fears
And my dreams out of sight
Gives me the power
And the will to survive this fight

I've travelled for ages
In search of the truth
Thousand of pages
Have paid off their dues
But they can't tell
What I am longing for

And when the dawn of the victory
Is rising with dignity
And then i'll know where to go

Take me away
Into infinity
I just cant stay
Realese my tragedy
And I swear
That i'll take more than I can bear
So take me away

Deep down my soul
There's a fire that burns
I won't hesitate
I'll always return
Surrendering all of the duties
That I was chosen for

I've conquered it all
And so what is the price
I bag for delieverence
Now that i'm wise
Why don't you ease my pain
And free my soul

So i'm laying my weapons down
Do I deserve the crown
Cause i'm here to take my place

Take me away.......

8. Time

There's a river dark and deep
Holding visions you can't keep
But the water flows too slow
Where it end you'll never know

Like a clock that's spinning round
Only ticking is the sound
Like an endless wheel of fortune
And you're losing the ground

And it seems
There's never an end
And all your dreams fade into nowehereland

And you're lost between time
And your live ain't worth a dime
When you're crossing the line
And your lifelight stops to shine

As you walk right thru the boarder
Between dead or alive
Prisoners from over yonder
Daring to strive

Like a touch without a soul
And an aim without a goal
So you try to break away
But they force you to stay

And you know
That chances have passed
Water Flows
But this moment won't last

And you're lost between time
And your live ain't worth a dime
When youAre crossing the line
And your lifelight stops to shine

(... time will never turn forever )

10. Sing This Song

Do you believe in honesty
You'll have to find your desteny
There may be times when things go wrong
You're gonna win if you are strong

So many boundaries to break
A million tasks you'll have to take
The road that leads you there is long
But in the end you'll be the one

Just raise your voice and sing

Sing this song
THEN You'll be the one
WHO Takes the victory
Take your time
AND Try to hold the line
THEN You will get it all

The years of innocence are gone
You've gotta show where you belong
You know what's wrong and what is right
Just force your goals and hold on tight

There'll be no mountain that's too high
You'll never fail so won't you try
The battle only just begun
And if you win you'll be the one

So let me hear your voice

Sing this song
THEN You'll be the one
WHO Takes the victory
Take your time
AND Try to hold the line
THEN You will get it all

11. Witches Dance

Moon is arising the night is to come
Dancing whit fire ' til their work is done
Praying to evil ignoring their gods
Lord of the darkness is waiting to come

Pray to the moon
Read from the runes
They have given their souls to the dark

Dancing whit fire
Is their only desire
They will keep on
Dancing the witches dance
Ruling their nation
Of desperation
They will keep on
Dancing the witches dance

Demons and wizards are ruling their thoughts
Whispering spells that they have been tought
A candle is burning for every sin
For every soul they took whit a grin

They hide from the sun
'Til daylight is gone
And when the night comes you will see the sparks

Dancing whit fire...

12. Wings To Fly

Tears on your lips
As you're lying here in my arms
All is gone far away
And there won't be another day

You have made my life worthwhile
But you took me thru this endless trial
Girl, you have tought me how to see
But i've always throught there's only you and me

I thought you gave me
Your all and all
Cause you where the reason
That made my cry and fall

You gave me wings to fly
Now it's to late to say good bye
And i'll raise my hands
Begging that you will let this end

Why did you hurt me
Why did you throw away our love
Couldn't you stand me
Didn't give you more than enough
Couldn't you find the words
To tell me what was wrong
Now this is the price you pay
That you're nothing more than a shade

I thought you gave me
You're heart and soul
No one can save you now
And there goes out my call

You gave me wings to fly...

13. I Surrender

[Bonus track - Original: Rainbow]

I surrender to your heart babe
Do anything that you want me to do
Please tender, Yeah, I'm in your hands girl
This is a feeling I never knew
You know I tried to make it on my own
That's not the way it was meant to be
Spend my time waiting by the phone
Oh, darling come back to me

I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
Oh be tender, girl be tender
Can't you feel the love that I send her
I surrender

I Remember, seems like a liftime
Can't believe it's a matter of days
Since you left me, oh, i'm near to heartbreak
I want you so bad don't turn away
What does it take to stay by my side
You know i'll do what you want me to
Don't take away this feeling inside
I'm still in love with you

I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
I remember, I remember
Can't you feel the love that I send her
I surrender...
