Tracks



01. Der Letzte Tag

Es geschah in der Zeit,
Als die Sonne die Erde zum glühen brachte
Und die Menschen sich nach der Nacht sehnten,
Nach den Schatten
Und der Linderung ihrer Qual...

Die Luft steht stickig still
Die Erde in der Hitze bebt
Kein Windhauch lindert die Qual
Schweiss rinnt von der kalten Stirn
Fieber tobt im weissen Leid
Kein Windhauch lindert die Qual

Auf sanften Flügeln schwebt die Nacht herbei
Der letzte Tag
Schliesst dunkle Augen mit weichem Flügelschlag
Auf sanften Flügeln schwebt die Nacht herbei
Die leise Klag
Schwindet ungehört, weil sie nichts vermag

Staub liegt in der heissen Luft
Das Atmen fällt ihm schwer
Kein Windhauch lindert die Qual
Flehend an seinem Bette wacht
Die Geliebte wartend auf die Nacht
Kein Windhauch lindert die Qual

Auf sanften Flügeln schwebt die Nacht herbei
Der letzte Tag
Schliesst dunkle Augen mit weichem Flügelschlag
Auf sanften Flügeln schwebt die Nacht herbei
Die leise Klag
Schwindet ungehört, weil sie nichts vermag

Es geschah in der Zeit
Und endlich kam die Nacht

02. Anger

Come calm my anger

Our love is like a perfect sky
Deep blue and the sun is shining
But it seems that sometimes
There have to be some clouds

And suddenly I feel this destructive anger
Deep inside
And suddenly I feel this destructive anger
Is about to rise

Please come and calm this anger
You're the one to calm this anger
And if you can't calm this anger
It'll surely devour me this anger

Dark clouds in a perfect sky
And the air is getting colder
The rain starts to fall and
We feel a stormy wind in our faces

And suddenly I feel this destructive anger
Deep inside
And suddenly I feel this destructive anger
Is about to rise

Please come and calm this anger
You're the one to calm this anger
And if you can't calm this anger
It'll surely devour me this anger

Glaring lightnings breaks the sky
And thunder is rumbling loudly
The elements have turned mad
It seems that it all will break down

03. Lost Soul

He took my soul
Took my soul
In his hands
My mind got dark
Mind got dark
In his hands

When did I begin
To follow the shadows
They fill my dreams with pain and sadness
When did I begin
To feel the sorrow
Then I laid my soul into your hand

He said sweet words
Said sweet words
With his voice
He seduced me softly
Seduced you
With his voice

When did I begin
To follow the shadows
They fill my dreams with pain and sadness
When did I begin
To feel the sorrow
Then I laid my soul into your hand

He took my soul
Took my soul
In his hands
My mind got dark
Mind got dark
In his hands

Once times were not so dark
But then the shadows took hold
Of my soul
Since then I feel
My mind's lost in madness

Lost my soul
In the dark
Lost my mind
In the dark

04. Perfect Love

Peel off my skin, make me helpless
Taste my body
Let me die in your sweet embrace

I never thought that I could find
Someone like you and still
I feel the union of souls
(The union of souls)
I never thought that I could find
A love so perfect and still
I'm here in your arms
(I'm here in your arms)

Peel off my skin, make me helpless
Taste my body
Let me die in your sweet embrace

I never thought that I could find
Peace of my mind and still
I'm staying with you
(I'm staying with you)
I never thought that I could find
A lust so devouring and still
I'm caught in this passion
(I'm caught in this passion)
I never thought that I could find
All I was searching and still
I found you
(I found you)

05. Heart In Chains

Your cold cold heart has drowned my life in pain
Your cold cold heart has tortured my mind and soul

You have never learnt
To leave your prison
Your heart lies in chains
And who will break them
Your heart lies in chains

Maybe you will find a way to forgive yourself
Your cold cold heart has drowned my life in pain
Maybe one day you will find the peace for your mind
Your cold cold heart has tortured my mind and soul

You have drowned my life
You have tortured my mind
You made wounds so deep

It tears you all apart
Restrained emotions
You're denying all your feelings
And it will break you
You're denying all your feelings

Maybe you will find a way to forgive yourself
Your cold cold heart has drowned my life in pain
Maybe one day you will find the peace for your mind
Your cold cold heart has tortured my mind and soul

06. Die Zeit

Soviel Zeit und soviel Leid
Sklave der Unendlichkeit
Gefangen im Käfig deines Ichs
Einen Ausweg siehst du nicht

Soviel Zeit und soviel Streit
Verdammt in Bitterkeit
Ketten aus Stahl, die brichst du nicht
Verbirg dein Angesicht

Die Zeit
Rinnt dir durch die Hände
Die Zeit
Sag mir was hast du getan
Die Zeit
Vergeht ohne Ende
Die Zeit
Sag mir was wird danach sein

Soviel Zeit und soviel Neid
Quält dich mit Grausamkeit
Gefangen im Dunkeln und das Licht
Verbrennt dir dein Gesicht

Soviel Zeit und soviel Streit
Gefesselt in Unzulänglichkeit
Zurück bleibt Hass, die Liebe flieht
Und keiner der es sieht

Soviel Zeit und soviel Streit
Verdammt in Bitterkeit
Ketten aus Stahl, die brichst du nicht
Verbirg dein Angesicht

Die Zeit
Rinnt dir durch die Hände
Die Zeit
Sag mir was hast du getan
Die Zeit
Vergeht ohne Ende
Die Zeit
Sag mir was wird danach sein

07. Black Angel

I was walking through the night
Suddenly I remarked a sound in the winds
An angel like voice singing a tale

Through the cold and stormy night
Flies an angel
The black angel
White skin, red lips and long black hair,
Her wings is broken
The guardian angel

Listening breathless to her voice
Which has touched me right there in my heart
I felt the tears run down my face

Through the cold and stormy night
Flies an angel
The black angel
White skin, red lips and long black hair,
Her wings is broken
The guardian angel

The storm drags on her clothes
Like an invisible warrior
Her wing broke with a sound
So disgusting that it frozen my heart
Her voice became weaker
Losing this fight of blackness

08. Devil Inside You

Why can't I hear you breath
Why can't I hold you now

You just told me on the phone
Bad news I can't believe they're true
Fate is too cruel to you it seems
It caught you at your weakest point
Nothing left of your whole world
Beside chaos and smoking ruins
You thought there's nothing more to loose
You're wrong and he presents the proof

Please fight the devil inside you
Not enough time for us to spend

Why can't I hear you breath
Why can't I hold you now

You will need all of your strength
I hope that you can carry on
You fought the shadows of the ghosts
Now he's the one you will fight next
Knocking at your door as if
He is a guest you like to see
Don't let him in, just push him back
He is not welcome in your house

Please fight the devil inside you
Not enough time for us to spend

09. Rebirth

The long summer
Has gone
The autumn leaves
Start to fall

Yesterday I was touched by the breath of winter
His cold fingers searched for my heart
But in my heart I felt the warmth of this summer
So the first snowflakes melted away

The long summer
Has gone
The autumn leaves
Start to fall

I felt the world hold its breath
And everything turned slower
All was silent, softened by the snow
The world is going to sleep now
In a freezing white coat
But I know that I will see its rebirth

The long summer
Has gone
The autumn leaves
Start to fall

Silently
The world's breath is slow
Silently
The first snowflakes fall

10. Are You Missing Me

Are you missing me
Not knowing where I am
Out there somewhere
Do you remember me

Do you think of me
When you are on your own
Do you wish that we
Had the chance to meet

Never met you
Searching my roots
Lack of identity
Searching a proof
Are you the one
Searching my roots
Give me a sign
Searching a proof

I hope that you'll agree
Sometimes we will meet
And you'll tell me your reasons
For giving me away

A day so long ago
Did you ever see my face
Or hold me in your arms
Do you feel sorry now

What were your reasons for
Giving me away
And still I'm thanking you
Maybe it was the best to do

Never met you
Searching my roots
Lack of identity
Searching a proof
Are you the one
Searching my roots
Give me a sign
Searching a proof

I hope that you'll agree
Sometimes we will meet
And you'll tell me your reasons
For giving me away
I hope that you'll agree
Sometimes we will meet
And you'll tell me your reasons
For giving me away

Do you think of me
When you are on your own
Do you wish that we
Had the chance to meet...

11. Ballade

Da löschte sein Licht in ihrer Hand
Der Wind verwehte drei Zeichen im Sand
Laut sang, o sang das Meer

Ein Narre schrieb drei Zeichen im Sand
Eine bleiche Magd da vor ihm stand
Laut sang, o sang das Meer

Da löschte sein Licht in ihrer Hand
Der Wind verwehte drei Zeichen im Sand
Laut sang, o sang das Meer

Sie hielt einen Becher in der Hand
der schimmerte bis auf zum Rand
wie Blut so rot und schwer

Kein Wort ward gesprochen - die Sonne schwand
da nahm der Narre aus ihrer Hand
den Becher und trank ihn leer

Da löschte sein Licht in ihrer Hand
Der Wind verwehte drei Zeichen im Sand
Laut sang, o sang das Meer

12. Show Me Heaven

There you go
flashing fever from your eyes.
Hey babe, come over here
and shut them tight.
I'm not denyin'
we're flying above it all.
Hold my hand, don't let me fall.
You've such amazing grace.
I've never felt this way.

Oh, show me heaven, cover me
leave me breathless.
Oh, show me heaven, babe.

Here I go
I'm shakin' just like the breeze.
Hey babe, I need your hand to steady me.
I'm not denyin'
I'm frightened as much as you.
Though I'm barely touching you,
I've shivers down my spine;
and it feels divine.

Oh, show me heaven...

If you know what it's like
to dream a dream
baby hold me tight
and let this be.

Oh, show me heaven...
