[Tom Englund]
We never saw this coming
Pride comes before a fall
We never heeded the warnings
Buried deep within us all
[Steve Lee] The Age of Shadows has begun
[Daniel Gildenlöw] Giant machines blot out our sun
[Steve Lee] Frozen minds becoming numb
[Daniel Gildenlöw] The Age of Shadows has begun
[Steve Lee] The Age of Shadows has begun
[Daniel Gildenlöw] I won't accept what we've become
[Steve Lee] We stand to lose more than we've won
[Daniel Gildenlöw] The Age of Shadows has begun
[Tom Englund]
Our quenchless thirst for knowledge
Our urge to change and grow
Our need to expand the nation
Made us rise from the depths below

We Are Forever
[Jonas Renkse]
Time, but a pa**ageway
The beginning of the end
An end that never was
Time, but a curve in space
We are forever
Eternal prisoners in time
We are forever
Caught in our cold inertia
Longing…hoping…waiting…for no one…
[Anneke Van Giersbergen]
Forever we yearn, forever we learn
Forever we live a lie, forever slipping by and
Forever we flee, forever we will be
Forever is but a dream, forever is but a scream and
Forever we try, forever we die
The spell of love wore off
The zest for life not enough
Longing… hoping… waiting… for no one…
(Never enough)
