Master... You know I never pray
Master... Nothing can keep you away Nightmare be thy name, Nightmare be thy name The dreams... They always do come true Second sight, and I don't want to know Nightmare be thy name, Nightmare be thy name You got to stop this game... Before I go In-sane... You drive me insane You would follow me straight to the grave And beyond... Oh yes you would In Hell, I see the fate of others Break the spell, this night has been on forever Nightmare be thy name, Nightmare be thy name You got to stop this game... Before I go In-sane... Before I go insane 02. Angel Of Light
I have seen Him there
Master of Light, Master of the night Master of all the things that shine Oh I believe... I believe in all that I have seen And I have seen the Angel Of Light I have seen the Angel Of Light... Lucifer I have seen Him there Deep down where the Devils dwell Deep down in the darkest well Oh I believe... I believe in all that I have seen And I have seen the Angel Of Light I have seen the Angel Of Light... Lucifer I will make a second deal with the Prince Of Light Never will break the Oath I gave that night Shine in all your glory, shine your light on me I have seen Him there Deep down where the Devils dwell Deep down in the darkest well Oh I believe... I believe in all that I have seen And I have seen the Angel Of Light I have seen the Angel Of Light... Lucifer 03. Witches' Dance
Just like a demon's eye
The moon was dancing on the blackened sky In my sleep nothing is real, dreaming... I'm dreaming I can feel the shadows lurking I can feel them closing in I can hear their evil chanting This is not a dream for a king Dancing the Witche's Dance... Dancing the Dance Dancing the Witche's Dance... Dancing the Dance Cold hands, leading the way Through the woods and into the night Outside nothing is real, dreaming... I'm dreaming I can see a fire burning Hooded shapes are all around I can see a throne of silver Thirteen we are in all Dancing the Witche's Dance... Dancing the Dance Dancing the Witche's Dance... Dancing the Dance Before the Goat Of Mendes... We all must take our turn Into the magic circle... Where still the fire burns We're spinning round and round... Until one takes a fall The fallen one will not return, the fallen one must burn Just like a demon's eye The moon is dancing on the blackened sky I'm awake but nothing is real Dreaming... Not dreaming I can feel the shadows lurking I can feel them closing in I can hear their evil chanting This is not a dream at all Dancing the Witche's Dance... Dancing the Dance Dancing the Witche's Dance... Dancing the Dance I wish this was only a dream... A dream Within a dream Dancing the Witche's Dance Dancing till Death 04. The Mad Arab
The son of a shepherd, Abdul Alhazred
Travelling in the mountains, the mountains to the east One night before him, there stood that giant rock 3 symbols carved in blood He built a fire at its root To protect him from the wolves... The Mad Arab... He would understand The Mad Arab... It was in his hands... Later that same night, awoken by wolfen's cry The Arab cold with fear, saw the rock began to rise... Rise The son of a shepherd, Abdul Alhazred Shivering he saw Them coming, the mountain's evil priests Black robes came together, around the floating rock 3 symbols in the dark They all started chanting ancient songs It was prayer in unknown tongue... The Mad Arab... He would understand The Mad Arab... It was in his hands Daggers held high to the sky The chanting had turned to screams From the pit where the rock had been 8 snake-like monsters came And the priests burned in red And the priest had turned their heads The blood running from their chests Had the Arab scream in horror... Giving himself away The Mad Arab... He would understand The Mad Arab... It was in his hands Run down that mountain side, oh but they had seen him The priests had caught his scent Running faster... They're chasing him Can't go no faster... They're still behind Aaaah NO!!! They're closing in... 05. My Demon
This house is full of hate, this house is full of madness
This house is deep insane, this house was never mine Deep in the dark you will find us DEMON and I we are both deep inside Yes My DEMON and I we are mine All of the deadly kisses, all of the sick, sick, sickness All of the broken mirrors, it's here to stay forever Deep in the dark you will find us DEMON and I we are both deep inside Yes My DEMON and I we are mine Come along... Come along, meet My DEMON... DEMON... My DEMON... DEMON The poison deep within, I can't let HIM out again The dark stains on the floor, they won't come off anymore So here we go again, digging the knife in Who will be next? Who will be our next guest? I hate that GOD damn cellar, I wish I never went there It always was and will be, I cannot make it go away Come along... Come along, meet My DEMON... DEMON... My DEMON... DEMON The poison deep within, I can't let HIM out again The dark stains on the floor, they won't come off anymore So here we go again, be my guest!! 06. Time

Lady In Black
On a magical misty morning
I was standing in the Autumn rain Suddenly the birds fell silent Would I ever hear them sing again... Hear them sing again... Without a word of warning I saw a shadow in the Autumn rain Just like in my nightly dreams The Lady In Black had come again... The Lady had come again... Begging me to follow her into the misty rain Begging me to follow her into the no more pain Her eyes were hypnotizing Burning deep inside my brain The Lady In Black was here now She was here to take me far away... Take me far away... "Follow me to the other side" Through the tunnel of light we travel, fading away Through the tunnel of light we travel We're fading away Through the light that's shining bright We're fading away Through the light that's shining bright We're fading away 09. Mirror
The girl in the mirror, she's not really there
Only I can see her, in all her misery The girl in the mirror, she's caught in a spell The girl in the mirror, between Heaven and Hell Can't you feel it, those haunting eyes She's so devine, could be magic of a kind The girl in the mirror, she's caught in a spell The girl in the mirror, between Heaven and Hell Take a look in the mirror Deep inside there's a world of its own Take a look in the mirror See what you might find Try to reach my hand Try to reach through the glass... Try... Try... 'Cause the longest journey is the one on your own If we break the mirror, do you think they'll let you go The girl in the mirror, she's caught in a spell The girl in the mirror, between Heaven and Hell 10. The Afterlife
Why am I here, in a quiet mortuary
A lady and man, flowers in their hands Nobody sees me, I don't understand Nobody hears me... Seems like I don't exist Seems like no one can hear me as I... Scream I do not feel the way I used to be Could it really be that the one I see is me You gotta tell why people come but never stay Could it really be that the one I see is me Does it really matter... Do you really care Why am I here, in a quiet mortuary Listen to the bell, calling my name Nobody sees, calling my name Nobody hears me... As I... Scream Why do I feel like I've been left behind Could it really be I'm in the afterlife You gotta tell me why I feel like I've been left behind Could it really be I'm in the afterlife Does it really matter... Do you really care Why do I feel like I've been left behind Could it really be I'm in the afterlife You gotta tell why people come but never stay Could it really be I'm in the afterlife Does it really matter... Do you really care 11. Castillo Del Mortes
Somewhere in ancient Spain, close to what was BAECULA
There lay Castillo Del Mortes To be known as "House Of The Dead" Oh no... Oh not here A fool was playing with magic, magic he did not understand He opened the unholy gates Letting out The Ancient Ones from Hell 600 people standing on the castle walls Screaming for mercy, someone must have heard their calls 600 wondering what's going on Two armies in the sky, forming and in battle line Hear the battle cries... 7 cohorts of angels, fighting for The Elders to win 7 cohorts of angels, fighting for the people within The "House Of The Dead" soon to be buried in sin 9 units of demons, The Ancient Ones command 9 units of demons, The Ancient Ones will stand For the "House Of The Dead" will soon be buried in sin 600 were watching in horror as they began to fight None of the armies were using a weapon As it is known to man Demons and Angels were falling in numbers Out of the burning sky... The burning sky "Retreat, retreat", Oh the angels flee, "Defeat, defeat" The battle's over, it's done Somewhere in ancient Spain, close to what was BAECULA There lay the battleground where many an angel was slain 9 units of demons bringing unbearable sin 9 units of demons coming for the people within The "House Of The Dead" will soon live up to its name 600 people running deep inside 600 people trying to hide From the Ancient Ones But there's nowhere to run on this day |
