1.	For a Final Ultimatum 05:09	lyrics	buy track
Slay down the lies, there is sense to illusion! And never look back to those places you’ve been! We found ourselves in the process of illumination. Embracing the tale we still share, we will mark an end. A dead mans forgiveness, his way led to shelter and fire is burning away our seal – for all that remains is a story forsaken. Chosen by few we are here as the pages turn. Tell me, who’s strong now and tell me, who’s weak! We’re chained to the word of a deadbringing fate. Blinding and twisted in riddles it speaks. Keep up the struggle before it’s too late! I’m calling the angels, I’m calling the world, before I close my eyes one last time. The final words are the ones to be heard… I feel confused and insecure, but I carry hope in my pockets and your smile on my face – always your smile on my face. Don’t touch the void now, resist it’s attraction! Our unconscious dreams form a new start from here. Seducing, temptating, the voices invite me. What sacrifice needs to be made? Was it all in vain? So they say, we had to face all the pain and no one would ever leave this existence. The face of the tragedy smiles between us. Sweet visions appear in the dark, reaching out for me…
2.	Deny me 05:55	lyrics	buy track
I’ve had my choice, my way leads home now. No doubt – there’s poison in my heart. Don’t you cry for me! Some wishes came true despite all these fears, I try to hide inside. I will – I shall! – return just for you. Show me your love, forget about consequences! The voice from within sweetly breathing your name deep in a dream, lost without an ending. That flattering armor, that hides your inside... Give me your word, this can go on forever – squandering our days in loving eternal. Nothing shall change, nothing ever at all – you have to promise to deny me! I am your friend and I am the perfect illusion, for perfectly well fits the mask, that I wear. Let me concede all the wishes, I silently made! Some of them could maybe one day come true. Wings unfolded, we’ll fly! On the stage of heaven we shall dance, to the whispers of the stars and the angels’ guidance by our side… Soon we will leave, we are off to a wonderful journey. Admire this world, you don’t see but you feel! Just splinters of joy and fragments of marvelous memories – I will devour the time, that I have left with you. Nothing shall change!
3.	Chaos Equation 04:44	lyrics	buy track
An army of slaves, nothing more’s what you are with your heads in the sky. Close is the hour, that my harvest begins and the whole can be seen – the whole can be seen. Fatal disease goes around, and you fell for the stench of it’s lie. How is this life, that you live in the arms of a poisonous dream – your dream? What lies behind? Full confirmation! Now all seems lost, where did I go? Tear down the walls! New life is born. We’ll leave these lands, from solid ground we will step away, fly away (give it up, give it up!). Give it all up! Hide away, run away (let it go, let it go!). Let it all go! Free your mind, take your chance, don’t look back, from this point to a new horizon… I am of no use to those, who create the desire inside. Lies have been told, they’re the prize for the ignorant solace you feel. Power is nothing if fury and honest redemption collide. Weapons of bliss were held back for too long by the uncertainty. Any place feels like heaven if you were in hell… Devour it all, all the despair! Command your past! Ressurrect the chaos equation!

about

Shadowpath Bern, Switzerland

Shadowpath creates a melodic sweet, melancholy, gloomy, thundering world, always accompanied by subtle, intense lyrics full of emotions. The sound
variety, still includes all these different influences from symphonic, progressive, gothic, death and power metal – or as one reviewer once put it: “An open-minded sound and a healthy disregard for traditional genre limitations”! ... more
