Marko Hietala ft. Tarja Turunen - Left On Mars

 

There was a child climbing a hill on a winter's night
Face up to space above and taken by the sight
Time slowed down under the blessing of the skies
Of dying stars and their billion years of light
Billion years of light

I flew across the void of space in a waking dream
Astride a fusion flame I'm finally redeemed
To find the wonders that transcend the bounds of time
To hear the heavens sing and reach the other side

Do you know that my heart still holds the rage, no
And I've turned page after page
I never chose to be an alien, no
I'm just looking for a home
(I'm just looking for a home)
I'm just looking for a home
I know I'm better left on Mars

I see the star that gave us life in the rusted sky
The hills turn crimson as I take your hand in mine
I always thought this place was safe and I was wrong
You chose to cross the void for me
I was made strong

Do you know that my heart still holds the rage, no
And I've turned page after page
I never chose to be an alien, no
I'm just looking for a home
I know I'm better left on Mars

Do you know that my heart still holds the rage, no
And I've turned page after page
I never chose to be an alien, no
I'm just looking for a home

I think you know that my heart still holds the rage, no
But you still believe in me
And I choose the mercy of your heart
I'm just looking for a home
(I'm just looking for a home)
There together we'll find home
Alone together left on Mars 

 

Within Temptation ft. Tarja Turunen - Paradise (What About Us?)

 

There's no sense
The fire burns
When wisdom fails, it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning

Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our role
The wheel embodies all, where are we going?

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace all and all I guess
We should have known better 'cause

[Chorus:]
What about us,
Isn't it enough?
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
Though it's not paradise

You and us
Or I and them
There comes a time
To take a stand
The wheel is watching all that keeps on burning
The venom works
It's like a curse
A Trojan horse
When will we learn
The wheel embodies all that keeps returning

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace all and all I guess
We should have known better 'cause...

[Chorus:]
What about us,
Isn't it enough?
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for

What about us,
Isn't it enough?
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
But it's not paradise

What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough?
What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough?
What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough?
What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough!
