Take heed, dear heart
Once apart, she can touch nor me nor you Dressed as one A wolf will betray a lamb Lead astray the gazers The razors on your seducing skin In the meadow of sinful thoughts Every flower's perfect To paradise with pleasure haunted by fear A sin for him Desire within A burning veil For the bride too dear for him A sin for him Desire within Fall in love with your deep dark sin I am the Fallen You are what my sins enclose Lust is not as creative As its discovery To paradise with pleasure haunted by fear A sin for him Desire within A burning veil For the bride too dear for him A sin for him Desire within Fall in love with your deep dark sin Bless me, undress me Pick your prey in a wicked way God I must confess... I do envy the sinners A sin for him Desire within A burning veil For the bride too dear for him A sin for him Desire within A burning veil For the bride too dear for him A sin for him Desire within Fall in love with your deep dark sin 02. The Kinslayer Music & lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
For whom the gun tolls
For whom the prey weeps Bow before a war Call it religion Some wounds never heal Some tears never will Dry for the unkind Cry for mankind Even the dead cry Their only comfort Kill your friend, I don't care Orchid kids, blinded stare Need to understand No need to forgive No truth no sense left to be followed "Facing this unbearable fear like meeting an old friend" "Time to die, poor mates, you made me what I am!" "In this world of a million religions everyone prays the same way" "Your praying is in vain It'll all be over soon" "Father help me, save me a place by your side!" "There is no god. Our creed is but for ourselves" "Not a hero unless you die. Our species eat the wounded ones" "Drunk with the blood of your victims I do feel your pity-wanting pain, Lust for fame, a deadly game" "Run away with your impeccable kin!" "Good wombs hath borne bad sons..." Cursing, God, why? Falling for every lie Survivors' guilt In us forevermore 15 candles Redeemers of this world Dwell in hypocrisy: "How were we supposed to know" 4 pink ones 9 blue ones 2 black ones 03. Come Cover Me Music by Tuomas Holopainen and Emppu Vuorinen Lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
Come wet a widow's eye
Cover the night with your love Dry the rain from my beaten face Drink the wine, the red sweet taste of mine Come cover me with you For the thrill till you will take me in Come comfort me in you Young love must Live twice only for us For me For you Time devours passion's beauty With me With you In war for the love of you (Tonight any dream will do) Not a world but your fine grace Seduction in sleepwalker's land November dressed in May on your face Holding us now the lovecropper's hand Come cover me with you For the thrill till you will take me in Come comfort me in you Young love must Live twice only for us 04. Wanderlust Music & lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
I want to see where the sirens sing
Hear how the wolves howl Sail the dead calm waters of the Pacific Dance in the fields of coral Be blinded by the white Discover the deepest jungle I want to find The Secret Path A bird delivered into my heart It's not the end Not the kingdom come It is the journey that matters, the distant wanderer Call of the wild In me forever and ever and ever forever Wanderlust I want to love by the Blue Lagoon Kiss under the waning moon Straying, claiming my place in this mortal coil Riding the dolphins Asking the mountains Dreaming Alaska The Earth can have but Earth I want to find The Secret Path A bird delivered into my heart It's not the end Not the kingdom come It is the journey that matters, the distant wanderer Call of the wild In me forever and ever and ever forever Wanderlust Drown into my eyes and see the wanderer See the mirrors of a wolf behold the pathfinder 05. Two For Tragedy Music & lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
Sleep, Eden, sleep
My fallen son Slumber in peace Cease the pain Life's just in vain For us to gain Nothing but all the same No healing hand For your disease Drinking scorn like water Cascading with my tears Beneath the candle bed Two saddened angels, in heaven, in death Now let us lie Sad we lived sad we die Even in your pride I never blamed you A mother's love Is a sacrifice Together sleeping Keeping it all No sympathy No eternity One light for each undeserved tear Beneath the candle bed Two souls with everything yet to be said 06. Wishmaster Music & lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
Master!
Apprentice! Heartborne, 7th Seeker Warrior! Disciple! In me the Wishmaster Elbereth Lorien A dreamy-eyed child staring into night On a journey to storyteller's mind Whispers a wish speaks with the stars the words are silent in him Distant sigh from a lonely heart "I'll be with you soon, my Shalafi" Grey Havens my destiny Master! Apprentice! Heartborne, 7th Seeker Warrior! Disciple! In me the Wishmaster Silvara Starbreeze Sla-Mori the one known only by Him To august realms, the sorcery within If you hear the call of arcane lore, your world shall rest on Earth no more A maiden elf calling with her cunning song "Meet me at the Inn of Last Home" Heartborne will find the way! Master! Apprentice! Heartborne, 7th Seeker Warrior! Disciple! In me the Wishmaster Wishmaster Crusade for your will A child, dreamfinder The Apprentice becoming... Master! Apprentice! Heartborne, 7th Seeker Warrior! Disciple! In me the Wishmaster 07. Bare Grace Misery Music by Tuomas Holopainen and Emppu Vuorinen Lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
Sweet boy, come in
I am the dark side of you Die for my sins Like the One once did Cinnamon bed For your unashamed appetite A figurante This dance will hurt like hell Oh, bare grace misery Just a child without a fairytale am I Dark but so lovely A Little Match Girl freezing in the snow Love lying, enticing (Bare grace misery) Crowning the moment (Bare grace misery) This is what I am Bare grace for the end of days Romantic scent Spoiled Lucrece lies warm for you There's no such priest That can pray me to heaven When done with me Forget if you think I feel ashamed A wild thing Never felt sorry for anything Love lying, enticing (Bare grace misery) Crowning the moment (Bare grace misery) This is what I am Bare grace for the end of days 08. Crownless Music by Tuomas Holopainen and Emppu Vuorinen Lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
Crownless again shall be the queen
Trophy on her grave still remains unseen A boat on the river confessing the sins The Riddler revealing the deep hidden things Crownless again shall be the king A gull covered in oil with a broken wing A hitcher on a road alone and lost Iron sharpens iron... a truth that once was Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone Mine is the throne for the idol One fleeting moment and it is all gone Crownless again Will I fall? Roaming on razor-sharp castles Ruling all but myself (Now my night is laid to sleep) One fragrant rose worth ten times what I am A crippled begging a coin braver than I ever was Reflection from me Devil dressed in white Chasten the being Become what I once was Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone Mine is the throne for the idol One fleeting moment and it is all gone Crownless again Will I fall? 09. Deep Silent Complete Music & lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
In your creation heaven did decree
That in your arms sweet death should dwell Deep Silent Complete Black velvet sea The sirens are calling for me Saved my soul thinking "This song's a lie" Sand on the shore is so dry Deep Silent Complete Black velvet sea Brave day sinking in endless night The age will say "This poet lies" Heaven never touched earthly face The age will say "This night was ours" Blessed with the Deep, the Silent, the Complete 10. Dead Boy's Poem Music & lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen
Born from silence, silence full of it
A perfect concert my best friend So much to live for, so much to die for If only my heart had a home Sing what you can't say Forget what you can't play Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes Walk within my poetry, this dying music My loveletter to nobody Never sigh for better world It's already composed, played and told Every thought the music I write Everything a wish for the night Wrote for the eclipse, wrote for the virgin Died for the beauty, the one in the garden Created a kingdom, reached for the wisdom Failed in becoming a god Never sigh for better world It's already composed, played and told Every thought the music I write Everything a wish for the night "If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it Remember only the verse, songmaker's cry the one without tears For I've given this its strength and it has become my only strength. Comforting home, mother's lap, chance for immortality where being wanted became a thrill I never knew The sweet piano writing down my life" "Teach me passion for I fear it's gone Show me love, hold the lorn So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I'm sorry Time will tell (this bitter farewell) I live no more to shame nor me nor you And you... I wish I didn't feel for you anymore..." A lonely soul An ocean soul "So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I'm sorry Time will tell (this bitter farewell)" A lonely soul An ocean soul 11.

Sleepwalker
Close your eyes
Feel the ocean where passion lies Silently the senses Abandon all defences A place between sleep and awake End of innocence, unending masquerade That's where I'll wait for you Hold me near you So close I sear you Seeing, believing Dreaming, deceiving A place between sleep and awake End of innocence, unending masquerade That's where I'll wait for you Sleepwalker seducing me I dare to enter your ecstacy Lay yourself now down to sleep In my dreams you're mine to keep (Sleepwalk with me) Sleepwalker seducing me I dare to enter your ecstacy Lay yourself now down to sleep In my dreams you're mine to keep |
