We can't wait to hear how you'll like it! 🪗❤️‍🔥🎸

As big ‪@nightwish‬ fans, we have recorded a 60-minute album with our own songs! If you'd like to contribute to the idea that passionately handcrafted music still holds value in our time, you can pre-order it in a limited edition for €15 through crowdfunding.

Your crowdfunding contribution will enable us to reach new fan circles through advertising, recover from production costs, and soon conquer more fantasy worlds with our listeners. The remaining ideas could already become the next album!

Lyrics:

My entire world was constructed
On a foundation of lies I believed.
Unfinished lines create
Collections of tragedies.

While I've poured out
Trust in a friend's eyes,
I can no longer wait to repay
What I've never lent.

I sense I can progress
Once perception has shifted.

This marks the conclusion of an era
Filled with falsehoods and deception,
I was enslaved by my mistakes
Now I strive to comprehend.

This marks the conclusion of an era
And a new one will descend
Just like a phoenix from ashes
I am ablaze to transcend.

My forehead against the wall
I felt trapped in a prisoner's mind.
All I could see was
Myself, feeling doubly blind.

I opened my eyes
But the entire world around was a fraud.
Dark visions haunt only those
Who can only see what's been taught.

Time will teach him who lives forever
But my life feels too short to be spent.
Time will teach him who lives forever
Unseen, the stars ascend.
