[Tom Englund]
We never saw this coming
Pride comes before our fall
We never heeded the warning
Buried deep within us all

[Steve Lee]
The age of shadows has begun
[Daniel Gildenlöw]
Giant machines blow out the sun
[Steve Lee]
Frozen lands becoming known
[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 extermination
Made us rise from the depths below

[Jonas Renkse]
Time...
but a passageway
The beggining of the end
an end that never was

Time...
but a curve a space
Oh... we are Forever
Eternal prisoners in time

Oh, we are Forever
Caught in our cold inertia
Longing, hoping, waiting
For no one

[Anekke van Giersberg]
Forever we yearn
Forever we learn
Forever we live a lie
Forever sleeping by

And forever we flee
Forever we'll 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
Never enough

Zero, one, zero, one, one, zero, zero, one
(Forever we try)
(Forever we die)
(Forever...)

Longing, hoping, waiting
For no one

[Hansi Kursch]
