The Haunting (Somewhere in Time) Lyrics:
Merely the sound of your voice
Made me believe that, that you were her
Just like the river disturbs
My inner peace

Once I believed I could find
Just a trace of her beloved soul
Once I believed she was all
Then she smothered my beliefs

One cold winter's night
I may follow her voice to the river
Leave me for now and forever
Leave while you can

Somewhere in time
I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth

Somewhere in time
When no virtues are left to defend
You fall in deep

I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fueled your hate

When the cold in my heart leaves
It comes to an end
And quietly I'll go to sleep

How could that first time recur
When memories linger on and on
What made me think you were her?
Helena is dead to all
Dead to all

Nothing can bring her to life
Don't pretend that I'll be loving you

Once I believed she was gone
I'm corrupted from within

Leave
Leave me for now and forever
Leave while you can

Somewhere in time
I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth

Somewhere in time
When no virtues are left to defend
You fall in deep

I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fueled your hate

When the cold in my heart leaves
It comes to an end
And quietly I'll go to sleep

Follow me into the light
(Like ice on a lake of tears
I'll take you through)

Leave me tonight
I've gone too far to begin all anew
(Life fades in anew)

With someone like you

Somewhere in time
I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth

Somewhere in time
When no virtues are left to defend
You fall in deep

I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fueled your hate

When the cold in my heart leaves
It comes to an end
And quietly I'll go to sleep
Sleep


Soul Society Lyrics:
If my soul could revive
From my carnal remains
what does it matter to me?

If it all fades to black
If I'm born once again
Then no one really is free

How could I be condemned
For the things that I've done
If my intentions were good?

I guess I'll never know
Some things under the sun
Can never be understood

How can we believe in Heaven?
Human reason counters all
Ideas of a soul society

My life is just a fragment
Of this universe and all
There must be more than I can see

In the dark we're the same
In the concept of time
We're like a grain in the sand

And we strive for the flame
As if death was our aim
Cause we cannot understand

How I wish there was heaven
All for one and one for all
A flawless soul society

Our lives are just a fragment
Of the universe and all
There may be more than we can see

How could I be condemned
For the things that I've done
If my intentions were good?

I guess I'll never know
Some things under the sun
Can never be understood

How can we believe in Heaven?
All for one and one for all
Ideas of a soul society

My life is just a fragment
Of this universe and all
There may be more than we can see


Interlude I (Dei Gratia) Lyrics:
Sub sole nihil novi est
Ad aspera, per aspera
Quaerite prime regnum Dei
Ante bellum, memento mori

[There is nothing new under the sun
through difficulties, toward difficulties
Seek ye first the Kingdom of God
Before war, remember death]
