[Thomas Vikström]
Necessary evil and necessary pain
Sold every day
In the name of justice
They will seek to drain
Their will by God
[Bridge 1: Thomas]
The scale of balance
Will never be even
Justice was never there
Like in an illusion
We play truth or dare
Winning is all
In the eyes of the world
[Chorus:]
[Thomas] Tear down all fences to see my aim
Bring this dying world into oblivion
[Erik] Within a dream of another world
[Thomas] Where all I live for still remain
[Erik Tordsson]
Why would I want to be just like you?
Dressed in false ideals
Your spell now's broken
Now that you are gone
Your voice unheard
[Bridge 1: Erik]
The scale of balance
Not an illusion
Winning is all
In the eyes of the world
[Chorus:]
[Thomas] Tear down all fences to see my aim
[Erik] Bring this dying world into oblivion
within a dream of another world
[Thomas] Where all I live for still remain
[Guitar & keyboard solos: Markus & Kaspar]
[Thomas Vikström]
And as the pain grows
your true identity comes clear
Through lands of decay you run
And the passion has you released
[Guitar lead: Markus]
[Chorus:]
[Erik] Tear down all fences to see my aim
[Thomas] Bring this dying world into oblivion
[Erik] within a dream of another world
[Thomas & Erik] Where all I live for still remain
Necessary evil and necessary pain
Sold every day
In the name of justice
They will seek to drain
Their will by God
[Bridge 1: Thomas]
The scale of balance
Will never be even
Justice was never there
Like in an illusion
We play truth or dare
Winning is all
In the eyes of the world
[Chorus:]
[Thomas] Tear down all fences to see my aim
Bring this dying world into oblivion
[Erik] Within a dream of another world
[Thomas] Where all I live for still remain
[Erik Tordsson]
Why would I want to be just like you?
Dressed in false ideals
Your spell now's broken
Now that you are gone
Your voice unheard
[Bridge 1: Erik]
The scale of balance
Not an illusion
Winning is all
In the eyes of the world
[Chorus:]
[Thomas] Tear down all fences to see my aim
[Erik] Bring this dying world into oblivion
within a dream of another world
[Thomas] Where all I live for still remain
[Guitar & keyboard solos: Markus & Kaspar]
[Thomas Vikström]
And as the pain grows

Through lands of decay you run
And the passion has you released
[Guitar lead: Markus]
[Chorus:]
[Erik] Tear down all fences to see my aim
[Thomas] Bring this dying world into oblivion
[Erik] within a dream of another world
[Thomas & Erik] Where all I live for still remain
