Walking in a world with black and white horizons
Talking to a crowd with empty words of silence Why should I carry on? So alone Cause I'm the grey between Nothing more but a scheme Like noise on a screen I'm flickering from side to side I can't hide, don't know what's wrong or right Come, close your eyes Don't mind reality Join in our lies Find your eternal sanctuary I am lost between the worlds I'm on a path leading to nowhere Lost between the worlds I'm on path leading to nowhere Between the frontiers of ignorance I fail to balance I don't have a chance It tears me apart It devours my heart A candle in a rainy night A desperate fight There's only wrong, no right Come, close your eyes Don't mind reality Join in our lies Find your eternal sanctuary I am lost between the worlds I'm on a path leading to nowhere Lost between the worlds I'm on path leading to nowhere When I close my eyes I see the world in bright shining colours Don't mind reality Found my eternal sanctuary I am lost between the worlds I'm on a path leading to nowhere 02. Borders Of Insanity
A mystery for so many ages
But no one found the answer no prophets nor sages Why are we here where do we go Tell me the secrets I don't know Tell me the truth behind it Show me the way, give me the light To find my way in this eternal light Destination out of sight Eternal existence Present the masterplan that will not fail The holy grail With all my might, with all my power I command in the name of God Grant me salvation, no damnation I don't want to rot I'm the end of everything, even that of gods When I dance on your grave You'll get what you deserve Now it's too late No one threatens me, you fool That's your salvation I grant you damnation Welcome to my horror show Just step into the dark And enjoy my gloomy realm Welcome now - my little horror show Just step into the dark There is no escape - No way out! Everyone is equal to me holy men, children and bastards There is nothing you can say or pay You'll be mine one day Then you'll get immortality Near the borders of insanity This will be my gift to you Cause no one's equal to me Look back - so sad You've lost your silly head My holy grail - the only way Look back - so sad You've lost your silly head That's your salvation I grant you damnation Welcome to my horror show Just step into the dark And enjoy my gloomy realm Welcome now - my little horror show Just step into the dark There is no escape - No way out! From my horror show there is no escape - No way out! 03. The Wizard
My lord save me
Thy son, thy blood With evil thoughts in mind So dark, so black A fallen one (oh black wizard) Oh wizard in your hollow Repent your sins And beg for our grace Pray, pray Wizard in your hollow Repent your sins Or never leave this place Hear my warning or you will die Don't turn away, reveal the masterplan - now! Confess, reveal We bless, we heal Change your fate Before it's too late What happened to me, what have I become? A black shadow's son, a darkness in me But there's no way back and soon I will be free Lord give me strength For heart and Soul With hatred in my eyes So cold, so cruel I'm the one Black wizard in your hollow Repent your sins And beg for our grace Pray, pray Wizard in your hollow Repent your sins Or never leave this place Hear my warning or you will die Don't turn away, reveal the masterplan - now! Confess, reveal We bless, we heal Change your fate Before it's too late What happened to me, what have I become? A black shadow's son, a darkness in me But there's no way back and soon I will be free There will be no grace(oh wizard in your hollow) You'll never leave this place(oh wizard in your hollow) There will be no grace(oh wizard in your hollow) Never leave this place - now you die Black wizard in your hollow Repent your sins And beg for our grace Pray, pray Wizard in your hollow Repent your sins Or never leave this place 04. The Raven
When I look into your eyes
I see them all arise(all arise) My feathered friend, observer of grief Dark visions of the past A horror that will ever, ever last It is the truth that I can't believe You have seen so much hate Growing till it was too late A manmade hell here on earth Just when death closes in Time to confess all their sins Forced to return the gift - the gift of birth With silent cries he drifts into the dark With sorrow in his hear The time the last light dies All grace will be denied The end of our future When the dark Raven flies Taking the eyes from the dead Blinding a blinded head They couldn't see while they were alive Watch the reaper's dance To the score in your bloody hands A deadly symphony written for gun and knife With silent cries he drifts into the dark With sorrow in his hear The time the last light dies All grace will be denied The end of our future When the dark Raven flies 05. When Love And Hate Collide
Pain is just one step away
I can't explain Draw a distinction between Love and fidelity I really hate the daily grind Can't turn back time Wipe away the rain of tears I draw the line Wipe away the rain of tears When love and hate collide Tried to mull over my faults Yield to despair Just thinking twice - can't decide What's wrong or right Wipe away the rain of tears I draw the line Wipe away the rain of tears When love and hate collide 06. Under The Spell
Dark shadows in the sky
In lost horizons Can you see these things That are dwelling deep inside Chosen to be alone and... Banished into isolation My freedom lies in solitude My hope, no faith, just emptiness Show me the way Don't lead me astray Let me be your guide I am the light, the light that you see Let me be your guide - you're lost in me Deep down in the ocean I swallow everything around A saviour, a traitor My light is the last hope Making the innocent drown This is my spell An empty heart in a cold world A room of silence Save my soul tear down the wall Around my heart it's breaking down In lost horizons Can you see these things That are dwelling deep inside Chosen to be alone and... Banished into isolation My freedom lies in solitude My hope, no faith, just emptiness Show me the way Don't lead me astray Let me be your guide I am the light, the light that you see Let me be your guide - you're lost in me Let me be your guide I am the light, the light that you see Let me be the light - you're lost in me Deep down in the ocean I swallow everything around A saviour, a traitor My light is the last hope Making the innocent drown This is my spell 07. Lions Den
Honour to the king, his will alone be done
No other man or God as great as him He wisely put us here to watch over his lands In bloom thanks to our good advice Glory to our king, to him alone we bow Forget the sky, look up to the throne We prepared a law: In your name we shall ban All religions except the praise for you There's one man close to you Who won't abjure from his god Unfaithful betrayer, into the lions' den The righteous remained In the lions' den As the lions' friend Proved the traitors wrong In the lions' den As the lions' friend he returned 30 days and 30 nights, for a predecent is due Prayers or pleads not to you be their last deeds There's one man close to you Who won't abjure from his god Unfaithful betrayer, into the lions' den The righteous remained In the lions' den As the lions' friend Proved the traitors wrong In the lions' den As the lions' friend he returned 08. Circle Of Flames
Safely locked in a cell
I'm sleepless in my bed A prisoner for ages Time is gnawing through my head I kept the secret well That burns me from the inside I fell a darkness grow That swallows every light I bow my head. I clasp my hands For a very last prayer Forgive my sins, your grace begins Where men turn away One night of desperate hours Starlight fading in the light of dawn No might on Earth left to save me When the devil writes my name In a circle of flames I don't think they'll miss me When I'm not seen anymore Much too late I start to feel Things I've never felt before Sympathy and regret Only words until this day Who can teach me how to pray? I bow my head. I clasp my hands For a very last prayer Forgive my sins, your grace begins Where men turn away One night of desperate hours Starlight fading in the light of dawn No might on Earth left to save me When the devil writes my name In a circle of flames 09. Falling Leaves
Why did you call his name?
Why didn't you accept the shame? Why did you grab the sword you could not handle, you could not bear? What did you try to achieve? What did misguide your belief? What did you think to find in useless battles but tears and death - but tearful death Here lies my dying son Soon my own time will come In the halls of our fathers we shall meet again My world's now an empty shell I'm burning in a living hell And my soul screams out vengeance, I will not return - not return How did you make him gone? How did you slay my son? Now you will serve the king of pain in his dreadful realm, his fearful realm Where will you meet your death? Where do you hide from my wrath? I will not rest til I'm free from the spell and your doom is sealed, a sinister fate - your sinister fare Here lies my dying son Soon my own time will come In the halls of our fathers we shall meet again My world's now an empty shell I'm burning in a living hell And my soul screams out vengeance, I will not return - not return Here lies my dying son - I will not rest until my quest is done... |
