Elvenking - Red Silent Tides lyrics



Tracks



01. Dawnmelting

Their souls were lost
Their dreams are drowning
In red silent tides.

White skin, cold shiver
Why are you so distant from me?
Dream on, this never
This no more it is a dream again.

Every time I look deeper into your eyes
I want you so bad that it hurts inside
Rising comet racing star-lit sky
I wanna feel my skin on hers.

Your whispers' erotic
I feel like you're inside of me, yeah!
I'm running, too far and
Don't want to partition once again.

What did I do to deserve you so
I am totally devoted to your eyes
Have you turn your glass up to the moon
Deny the dawn will come and light up.

I'm wishing for another memory
Only to save your words
I wish for another fantasy
Only for your dreams, well I
I wish for another myself.
To be wholly yours again.

I'm hoping for another touch
This will of yours, it hurts so much
I won't give up for a night to do what should be done
This constant feeling drives me mad
I can not rest, I can not stand
I won't give up for a night to do what should be done.

I'm wishing for another memory
Only to save your words
I wish for another fantasy
Only for your dreams and I
I wish for another myself.
To be wholly yours again, yeah yeah!

02. The Last Hour

Music & lyrics by Aydan
Save me, seize me, I'm falling again

The brightness in your eyes
The silence of your cry is speaking louder
Than the words you said to me, the notes created for you

There's something in between
There's halfway you and me where nothing was supposed to be
Dark sides rise, wound me with your knife!

Paint the shadows of the past
Canvas of desolation
As the last hour has passed
Has stroke, has fallen on the floor
Has lengthened through this night

[Chorus:]
Save me, seize me, I'm falling again
As the final hour-hands are stretching my skin and flesh
A circle is forming, you need to rejoin with your love
One last time before the fall

I was ready for the call
For the final curtain falling on the stage one last time
Sacrifice myself for your life
Taking a bow meaning good bye

[Chorus]

03. Silence De Mort

I walk in silence
Silence de mort

Every night the same old dream
La fleur du c?ur being slaughtered from within
And I know how - I know now - I know how

Every time I can feel, I can hear
The taste of my blood the beat of my heart
And I feel pain - I feel great - I feel pain

...And this is no Wonderland
No Alice, no Cat, no Mad Hatter my dear
Here the silence is real

All the dreams that I hold, all my fantasies unfold
And the things I wanna live
Are just fake happy endings with figures pretending
They've washed all the illusions far away

The marionettes are drinking still
While celebrating their own pile of shit
Like it is great - like it is the main attraction

The stains which remain on my best suit
Are always of the colours I hate the most
While the ones I cherish, they just fade away

...And this is no Wonderland
No Alice, no Cat, no Mad Hatter my dear
Here the silence is real

All the dreams that I hold, all my fantasies unfold
And the things I wanna live
Are just fake happy endings with figures pretending
They've washed all the illusions far away

I walk in silence
Silence de mort

04. The Cabal

I wake up and I feel I was stranded
In a world that hardly represents me
Step by step I collect all my nightmares
Like a modern Renoir I'm painting my life away

Don't you think that I'm not gonna worry
Don't you think that I don't feel sorry
Soon I'll find my way and I'll let you know

Sitting down in my room I feel so empty
Staring with lonely eyes at the words I am laying down
With cold blood I swallow all the absinthe that you gave me
That cold winter night

Don't you think that I'm not gonna worry
Don't you think that I don't feel sorry
Soon I'll find my way and I'll let you know

I feel a decadent poet
Forced to bury his art - forced to bury his own heart
Under the mud of a pigsty
A cabal of murdered broken hearts
Longing for my bitter taste

Lost you, I have lost you, brother
The strength you hid inside your eyes
Makes me believe I can still live my life
I learned from the ashes
Of the tears I dropped for all these years
My love is now living, is living for real

I feel a decadent poet
Forced to bury his art - forced to bury his own heart
Under the mud of a pigsty
A cabal of murdered broken hearts
Longing for my bitter taste

05. Runereader

Music & lyrics by Aydan
Along the winding road, into the storm
Far away from home
Rain washes away the tokens gathered through life
Where the snow's covering all around
In a silence painted white
Where nobody can recall your face at first sight

[Chorus:]
Read the lines that no one reads
They are written everywhere
See the things that no one can see
Things that God forbids

There were runes can still be called
Under thirteen Moons of Fall
Magic, Spirits and a Sunset
Reader of the Runes

Through an archway of branches I ride
Like a ghost haunted by Love
Dragging all my sins into another eve of strife
All the loved ones I have then belonged to
Fade in this dark lake
Like the Night dies and at Dawn returns to life

[Chorus]

06. Possession

Carry on, everything's over
Stare at the dawn, as sky is covering
Clouds are darkening the horizon and our lives
Carry on, we can't stand this silence.

Holding on to a wicked sensation
Pounding strong, it's pure emotion
How long does it last inside our living hearts?
Every beat, really loses away a part.

You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
In your pain and it's part of me
Where the poet lives, no poetry can exist
If there is no dream, you carry my heart.

[Chorus:]
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
Hand in hand so far from here
Through the dark of night and through the leaves of fall
I am leaving you, as you carry my heart.

Carry on, I can't let you burn me up
But you know that I can't resist
No mere human can stand a fire not
Being consumed, I ask myself,
You and me will be us?

You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
In your pain and it's part of me
Where the poet lives, no poetry can exist
If there is no dream, you carry my heart.

[Chorus:]
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
Hand in hand so far from here
Through the dark of night and through the leaves of fall
I am leaving you, as you carry my heart

Please allow me to deeply live this dream
While the others all around still sleep
She wrote fairytales of disobedience
While the fire burned, possession of their souls

[Chorus:]
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
Hand in hand so far from here
Through the dark of night and through the leaves of fall
I am leaving you, as you carry my heart

Carry on.... everything's over

07. Your Heroes Are Dead

I don't know who you are
In the mirror I see you still wear a mask
A disguise, a cure for all the madness.

Why don't you get rid
Of the junk you used to wear
In front of me, are you sure that
You were feeling better.

All the laughter, the good time
Covered up all of your crimes
Now tell me who you are
Now tell me who you are
All the darkness, all the pain
Was it really all in vain?
Now tell me who you are
Now tell me who you are.

[Chorus:]
Far away you just wanna run away
Your heroes - all gone astray
When you say that you're gonna end your play
Your confidence all gone away.
I just saw it happening,
I saw the ones who love you all run away
Your heroes are all dead.

The truth behind the lies
Is a blink well hidden deep inside your eyes
It's a way to make them all feel stupid.

Oh if you just knew
That the only one who was
Being fooled was you
Are you sure that you were
Feeling better.

All the laughter, the good time
Covered up all of your crimes
Now tell me who you are
Now tell me who you are.
All the darkness, all the pain
Was it really all in vain?
Now tell me who you are
Now tell me who you are.

[Chorus:]
Far away you just wanna run away
Your heroes - all gone astray
When you say that you're gonna end your play
Your confidence all gone away.
I just saw it happening,
I saw the ones who love you all run away
Your heroes are all dead.

08. Those Days

Those days when nothing appeal
Pale were the glances of future
Vital the essence of us
Together we'd find a solution

Those days the kingdom was ours
Reigning over our landscapes
All my domain for a heart
And straight on the track again

Where are now those days?
These lulls are not familiar
Buried are yesterdays dreams under the soil of ill our seams

When you close your eyes thinking back again
To those days so far lost and done
What you miss for real has gone forever

When the stars seemed not so out of reach
When n the streets gave all they have to teach
Those were the days to live together

Those days when he looked away
Nothing wilt he as today
Sometimes I ask myself
What life has gifted him with right now

We were against the world sure to conquer everyone
We weren't one for all but were always all far one

When you close your eyes thinking back again
To those days so far lost and done
What you miss for real has gone forever

Live today with the heart you had those days
Never gonna miss it
Love all the days 'cause you'll never have
Another chance to be strong again

09. This Nightmare Will Never End

Sometimes I feel like I don't wanna face myself and run away ... in silence
All the memories, sentences that I just didn't wanna say ...oh yesterday
Walking in silence, I could face my fears and try not to forget where I belong
Where do I come from?

I was flying like a raven, bringing sadness to you all then my heart broke into pieces, that's when I Started to fall.

I have walked on the path of solitary victim ...in silence
I spoke the tongue of the dumb and no one listened to me.
Walking in silence, I just didn't listen, I didn't want to know where I belonged
What the hell I did to myself?

I was flying like a raven, bringing sadness to you all then my heart broke into pieces, that's when I started to fall.

[Chorus:]
Now I close my eyes, for all the shame I feel inside
I know I hate myself, for all the things I've said
And all the things I've done, and every time I think about it now
I would kill myself ...but now I wanna face this.

You come to reach the darkest level
And you don't know what it means
Then realize you lived a nightmare when you thought it was a dream
You can say that you're so sorry
For all the mess that you have been trough
But only when you'll free yourself you'll get to have the best for you.

I was flying like a raven, bringing sadness to you all then my heart broke into pieces, that's when I started to fall.

[Chorus:]
Now I close my eyes, for all the shame I feel inside
I know I hate myself, for all the things I've said
And all the things I've done, and every time I think about it now
I would kill myself ...but I just wanna face this.

This nightmare will never end... This nightmare will never end
This nightmare will never end... This nightmare will never end

10. What's Left Of Me

For years disguised smiles were the only friends for me for years I thought they were for real
I closed my heart and with my hands I fooled myself Leaving me a pearl without a shell

Then I woke up, then I woke up and found all that I left behind I'm packing it all, and leaving with you

[Chorus:]
So close your eyes and take my hand now I'll take you to my dark wonderland a place you'll never Want to leave - a place you'll never want to leave tonight
I will caress you all the night and day whisper sweet words every day captive in your arms, your prey In your arms a prey tonight

I'll dig a place so far from here
A hole to hide my love, to save what's left of me

They put me on trial after the sentence had been sealed with dismal glances ill-concealed a crow was Flying in the rainy sky that night bringing good news, not a fright

The underdog, the last in line, oh please stop all this wicked whine I'm packing my things, and Leaving with you

[Chorus]

After all we went through Can you feel me deep.. I dedicate this night to you

Long all the miles I've been walking
The tears have counted my progress
Please touch my heart ? together we will fix this silence
In this dark sweet fairytale
They ran out of happy endings
Please touch my soul ? we can re-arrange all this nightmare

[Chorus]

11. The Play Of The Leaves

Music & lyrics by Aydan
It's time to make a choice
No matter where it leads
Decisions need to be taken
Doesn't matter when
No matter where

The final curtain falls
All the audience's gone
The play has come to the end
Change your acting clothes
Clean up your face

The treasures of your inside
Do they really have a light?
The jewels in your heart
Are they rusting inside?

There are voices there always that are calling for you
Every time you're in need of finding something to cling to
There are choices there waiting for you
Everywhere, you'd better be prepared

Are your leaves covering
The highest top of the trees
With their green and sparkling gold
Or the soil below,
Crackling dead and gone?

Inside what do you feel?
The play of the leaves
Performing next to your room
Get the final claps
Or leave covered in shame

[Chorus]

Do you feel this emotion that hides
Are you strong enough to survive
This little whirlwind in motion?

Can you feel the pain that I feel
Do you see all things that I see?
It's all turning and causing commotion

[Chorus]
