Elements pt2 lyrics by Stratovarius

1. Alpha & Omega

ALPHA & OMEGA I am the earth and sky I am the low and high I am the snowflake in the winter evening I am the birth and death I am your final breath I am the one that gave you life and freedom Choosing your own way Everything you´ve ever known Every seed that you have sown Came from me i made you My creation is supreme This is all me perfect dream No mistakes in God´s great perfect cosmic play I am the Alpha I am the Omega I am the beginning and the end of time I am the Alpha I am the Omega My whole creation stands before me tonight I am the dark and light I am the day and night I am the mirage I am the echo I am the fear and anger I am a familiar stranger I am the shadow i m a star that guides you Until the end of time.

2. I Walk to My Own Song

I WALK TO MY OWN SONG I´m walking the streets and i hear what you say Advicing me tilling me how to play I know your name it´s called Mr.Mean One thing i´ve learned you don´t know beans High i fly I touch the sky Far above the frozen minds You can´t kill my dreams You can´t kill my spirit I was born to be free I walk to my own song Every day the power grows stronger in me I walk to my own song Head up proud I´m the master of my own destiny You think you know what is better for me Holding me lectures of how i should be Shrugging my shoulders i leave you behind Anyway i look at it you are blind

3. I´m Still Alive

I´M STILL ALIVE Look around turn around You just might fall to the ground Sail away break away Danage done nothing to say All my life i´ve felt like an outcast But not anymore, a thing of the past Feel the sun, got to run Feels like life has just begun All is new, different view so many things that i will do I´m leaving behind the things i don´t need and with confidence i´m planting the seed I´m still alive I´m ready to feel the wind in my hair And i know there are so many things to share I will write my story again Masterplan of a new kind I was lost but now i´m found I´m still alive

4. Season of Faith´s Perfection

SEASON OF FAITH´S PERFECTION Seasons they come seasond they go Observing them in their perfect flow Changing my life as they pass me by Drying my tears letting them die In the sunrise i am born again In the sunset i die again What will you do when all fails? When you feel like a ship without sails When desperation fills your mind And the pain makes you blind In my silent truth i scream these words THE HOPE IS LOUD! Never give up

5. Awaken the Giant

AWAKEN THE GIANT I´m staring at the wall Sick and tired of all Manic depression makes me crawl It makes me small I need some peace of mind The prssure makes me blind The labyrinth of pain, the exit i munst find It´s all inside of me, the answers lie within And all that i can win i take for myself I´m the one who holds the key To all that i can be My spirit yearns for truth, It´s learning to be free Through the years I was doing things the wrong way But now i´ve changed it is time to say Awaken the giant Don´t let it sleep Awaken the giant Look deep within I won´t give up the fight Until i see the light I won´t give in To the gloominess of life The end is in my sight In the middle of darkest night I see my future´s bright I´m reaching for new heights

6. Know the Difference

KNOW THE DIFFERENCE To see the things in a brand new light Not to give up without a fight To surrender is not in my sight I´m a child of the universe In the noisy confusion of life Where uncertainty rules my way It´s so easy to go astray I got to keep strong and bold Give me a way to accept things I cannot change anymore The courage to change anymore And the wisdom to know the difference In the midst of the darkness There´s a voice that you know so well Lifts you up from the madness where you dwell Don´t give in to the hopelesness Keep the innocence in your heart And the end before your start Be the warrior of the light Don´t give up without a fight

7. Luminous

LUMINOUS Luminous we shine Like the stars on the evening sky Through the universe And centuries They are calling Hear them calling Luminous moonshine Is guiding my travel through life I hear angels calling Hear them calling No tree has branches so foolish As to fight among themselves We share the same biology We are one We are luminous Luminous when we die We return to the great ocean Of the living energy It is calling Hear it calling Luminous my life A breath in the cosmic play Without reason or rhyme Its calling Hear it calling

8. Dreamweaver

DREAMWEAVER Lying alone in your bed Images from the past filling your head You try to run, you try to hide But there is no escape, your eyes are open wide Long time ago you felt alive Now only emptiness is blackening your life The time has come to break away Or you go astray Dreamweaver - there is so much more to see Dreamweaver - There is a deeper way to feel Dreamweaver - misery takes a hold of you paralyzes your soul Dreamweaver - find a way to understand Dreamweaver - You hold your fate in your own hand Dreamweaver - break your chains and make your move Or you might just see a dreamweaver´s fall Things that you started Are still undone While you are wasting you precious life The sleepless nights Won´t leave you be You´re going astray

9. Liberty

LIBERTY Sun is shining Sky is so blue I´m filled with hope It´s promising The course my life is taking Searching of my truth has brought me here Facing things with cinfidence That all will be ok Past is gone Life goes on Memories remain I break the chain of misery and pain Marching to a different drum Shines my liberty It´s growing stronger every day I feel it in me Leading me to a different world Freedom shows the way It´s there for you and me to find It´s heaven on earth I´m standing here today and understand There is no reason to hide anymore So many things to see so many things to gain My life is not in vain

10. Ride Like the Wind (bonus Japan)

Music and Lyrics: Johansson A house made of cards and no time to run Unfolding the path before me Together with you and not making sense And slid from my grasp, that moment in timr When everything stood to reason The clarity gone, I wait for my fate Black clouds gathering Wind, carry the word of my fate Ride, ride like the wind It´s fanning my flame, too bright to be real It´s burning my eyes to ashes I´m one with the steel, too bright to be real Black clouds gathering Wind, carry the word of my fate Ride, ride like the wind

Music & Lyrics: Tolkki Hiljaa, hiljaa kuulen kutsun tän Pidän kiinni nyt mä palleistain, ne on mun ystäväin Kuulen kutsun peniskateuden Kun en pysty edes kusemaan katsomatta viereen Painan pään ulko.. hihihih, vittu! Muista pyyhkii aina Embolla tai susi sinut vie Mar.. vittu.. marssin tahtiin Timo Tolkin paikkaan jumalan Kun kuoli sinun puolestas ja voitti humalan Helvetti sua odottaa, raukka syntinen Sun luojaas täytyy pelätä ja kunnioittaa Sitten vaihdoin sukupuoleni Naisen ruumiissa on kivempi maassa tallustaa Ystäväni on Chris Owen Mäkin kirjan kohta julkaisen ja paljastan mä poveni Painan pään ulkokäymälään Muista pyyhkii aina Embolla tai susi ja Pekka sinut vie Laulu tää on vailla merkitystä Sanat soljuu itsestään Nettiriippuvuus on huono ystävä Nopee yhteys on ainoo ratkaisu

14. Soul of a Vagabond (live) bonus CD2

SOUL OF A VAGABOND [Music and words: Tolkki] Pack on my back I wander Over mountains across the seas My yearning soul keeps roaming In the endless search for peace sky is my roof, my shelter Stars shine and light my way Earth is my bed, my altar On this road that leads to nowhere In silence I scream but no one listens to me Absolution, salvation, my sins won´t leave me be The first cry, the last breath We are born to die This madness neverending Don´t know the reason why Soul of a vagabond Illusion, delusion, we are born to live Temptation, damnation, starvation, deformation The road goes on forever It´s an old and trustworthy friend I have tasted its dust and treasures By my twisted mind won´t mend My burden is heavy to carry My destiny lies ahead My spirit is always leaving For this road that leads to nowhere... In silence I scream but no one listens to me Absolution, salvation, my sins won´t leave me be The first cry, the last breath We are born to die This madness neverending Don´t know the reason why Soul of a vagabond Illusion, delusion, we are born to live Temptation, damnation, starvation, deformation In silence I scream but no one listens to me Absolution, salvation, my sins won´t leave me be The first cry, the last breath We are born to die This madness neverending Don´t know the reason why Illusion, delusion, we are born to live Temptation, damnation, starvation, deformation In silence I scream but no one listens to me (Soul of a vagabond) Absolution, salvation, my sins won´t leave me be The first cry...

15. Destiny/Fantasia (live) bonus CD2

DESTINY (Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Tolkki) The times are changing so fast, I wonder how long it lasts. The clock is ticking time is running out. The hatred fills this Earth and for what is worth, we´re in the end before we know. Throughout the years I have struggled to find the answer that I never knew. It strucked me like a million lightnings and here I am telling to you. Every second of day it is coming your way, future unknown is here to stay. Got to open your mind or you will be led to astray. There´s a time to live, there´s a time to die. But no one can´t escape the Destiny. Look all the things we´ve done, under the burning sun. Is this the way to carry on? So take a look at yourself and tell me what do you see. A wolf in clothes of the lamb? Throughout the years I have struggled to find the answer that I never knew. It strucked me like a million lightnings and here I am telling to you. Every second of day it is coming your way, future unknown is here to stay. Got to open your mind or you will be led to astray. Let your spirit free, through window of your mind. Unchain your soul from hate, all you need is faith. I control my Life, I am the One. You control your Life but don´t forget Your Destiny... It´s time to say goodbye, I know it will make you cry. You make your destiny. I know you´ll find the way. And outside the Sun is bright. The things will be allright. I will be back one day to you. So please wait for ME FANTASIA [Music and words: Tolkki] Welcome to my world Close the gates You´ve come from far away I´ve been expecting you You are the holders of the key To the story that never ends Fantasia Resides deep in your heart Leave your worries far behind Fantasia Let the freedom ring the bell Let us all unite Borders made of hate are gone Nations singing the song of peace In Fantasia How would it be? A world without hate Without heaven, without hell No wars, no arms, no religion, no God Just your own truth (Fantasia can arise in you) Fear and darkness prevail But finally they will fail Fantasia Resides deep in your heart Leave your worries far behind Fantasia Let the freedom ring the bell Let us all unite Borders made of hate are gone Nations singing the song of peace Fantasia Fantasia One day when love conquers all Mankind will prevail No more jealousy Fantasia No more envy no deceit The nothing is gone Future´s bright and glorious We are all victorous We are kings in Fantasia

16. Father Time (live) bonus CD2

FATHER TIME (Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Kotipelto-Johnson) Walking down the path that lead me to my memories. Facing all the way without a care in my stride. Where are the friends of my yesterday, have they moved on with their lives. Can we still laugh and joke about things like before. There´s no need to hide the past that I have left behind. It´s a good resource somewhere to reach out. It shouldn´t be all up to them, keeping in touch ain´t that easy but I´ll have to try. Where have all the years gone that´s what I am asking now. What have I learned so far tell me Father Time - tell me now. Now I understand I´ll take from time what I need And I store it inside it´s there for me to find I can´t deny that the years will pass by but it won´t bother me. Coz now I will set out to realize my dream. Where have all the years gone that´s what I am asking now. What have I learned so far tell me Father Time - tell me now.

17. Hunting High 6 Low (live) bonus CD2

HUNTING HIGH AND LOW (Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Kotipelto) I feel the wind in my hair, and it´s whispering, telling me things, of the storm that is gathering near. Full of power I´m spreading my wings. Now I´m leaving my worries behind. Feel the freedom of body and mind I have started my journey. I´m drifting away with the wind I go... I am Hunting High and Low. Diving from the sky above looking for, more and more. Once again I´m Hunting High and Low. Sometimes I may win sometimes I´ll lose It´s just a game that I play. After the storm there´s a calm. Through the clouds shines a ray of the sun. I am carried from all of my harm there is no-one that I can´t outrun. Now I´m leaving my worries behind- Feel the freedom of body and mind I have started my journey. I´m drifting away with the wind I fly.

18. Paradise (live) bonus CD2

PARADISE (Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Tolkki) Late at night I find myself again wondering and watching tv. I can´t believe what´s on the screen, something that I wouldn´t like to see. Many rare species will perish soon and we´ll be short on food. Why do we have to be so selfish, we´ve got to change our attitude. I know that I am no the only one that´s worried, why don´t we all wake up, and realize. Like the birds in the sky we are flying so high, without making any kind of sacrifice. We´ve got so little time to undo this crime or we´ll lose our Paradise. It seems to me that there´s no sense at all, nobody cares it´s always the same. Mother nature´s crying out in pain I know we´re the one´s to blame.
