Below the branches of
A lonely winter tree High rocky slopes Cliffs of the cold and lurid sea Lost among the stars Silver dew on a meadow plain My silent pain My diary of despair Snow turned red when death was near Her frozen tears so crystal-clear CHORUS: Nameless grave by the sounding sea In my wildest dreams She's still calling me Innocence died, she died so young Pale-faced moon What have we become? I only know that is was Many a year ago Old father moon shone brightly And the tide was low A ship from far away Lay unmoved on the shore Her gentle voice changed My life forevermore The wind whispers her tale of woes I will not rest and I will never repose CHORUS Nameless Grave 02. Alliance
No cross, no crown, do beard a lion
Necessity knows no law Never put it of till tomorrow What you can do today Make assurance double sure Far at the horizon we see the hords Battlechoir, hail to you Your will to fight, to jail, to kill Oh Skull, prepare to die! Evil dreads the cross Evil flees from holy water Evil dreads the rosaries Evil flees from sunlight We don't fear the evil The Choir fears nothing at all This alliance will never be broken! CHORUS: Raise you fists up to the sky and Show the world our Long-famous sign In this moment of Honesty and truth Ability is the poor man's wealth The more danger, the more honour A tree must be bent while it's young United we stand, divided we fall, Choir, we're your biggest fan A good name is better than riches Skull, the worst is yet to come Evil dreads the cross Evil flees from holy water Evil dreads the rosaries Evil flees from sunlight We don't fear the evil The Choir fears nothing at all This alliance will never be broken! CHORUS Now raise your fists up to the sky Give us the horns Do the world right Battle as if there's no tomorrow And give the evil infinite hatred We are the chosen ones: Grailknights You are our right hand: Battlechoir This alliance will never be broken! CHORUS 03. The White Raven
The White Raven
I stood waiting at the Wind-swept bay For my ship come sailing by The clouds broke open I heard a young man's call The White Raven Sailed across the sky I climbed higher and higher Throught the roaring storm On a rope-ladder I left my life behind "Anchors away And cast of the lines" We conquer space and time As I gaze at the world From so high above My heart grows so heavy and My mind fades away As our vessel floats to Celestial shores I yearn for my home A calm harbor to stay CHORUS: We sail the clouds and Seek the storm Above the world On our endless voyage home The White Raven Sailed across the sky Black thunderheads Piled up like hills I saw lightning Flash across the sky Death in the shape of Golden snakes "Is today the day we're going to die?" I saw people run in panic Shouting and screaming My darkest fears had Finally come true But two eyes, full of hope Looked at me I'm sure they belonged to you As I gaze at the storm From right in between My strength is growing And sorrow fades away As our vessel floats to celestial shores Reminiscence of the past My calm harbour to stay CHORUS The White Raven Sailed across the sky The White Raven 04. Echoes Of Wisdom
Eternity reigns
In the halls of our fathers Echoes of wisdom they all tried to seek Silence swallows the sorrows of ages The kingdom of twilight Devours our sons Forged by fire On a cold autumn noon Evil hands hold the chalice To enlighten our doom CHORUS: As we stem the tide We shift black to white Turn fire into ice and then We toss the dice The die is cast and we are not the last To suffer death a ten thousand times Ride with me, let us make history Rise to my calls, we burn down the halls Before we shall live We suffer death a ten thousand times From the dark to the daylight Our Choir marches on Skull tried to compel us But our banners are crossed Till the day evil is bound Now tremble in terror 'Cause the Grail has been found! Forged by fire On a cold autumn noon Evil hands hold the chalice To enlighten our doom CHORUS 05. When Good Turns Evil
His mind is twisted, his poor soul
Yearns to be free His ugly body conceals a secret No one can ever see He was one of us A long time ago One day he broke the oath And let evil grow Antagonize, recover your Predestinated role Don't let the beast within take control Caught in anguish, slavery And dubiety Since he yielded to temptation Damned to suffer endlessly Once he was our fellow A knight in shining armour Now his torn nature Does not know what to live for Antagonize, recover your Predestinated role Don't let the beast within Take control Try to escape to resume your liberty Never accept it to last eternally It is no your fate, come along with us It is not too late, regain old trust Hust break through, find confidence We'll wait for you, refuse obedience Antagonize, recover your Predestinated role Don't let the beast within Take control Try to escape to resume your liberty Never accept it to last eternally 06. Tranquility's Embrace
Now that I know that
Nothing remains Stronger I am for there is No time to waste Make sure you are not Only a piece of flesh Make your life a tale Either good or bad Close to the embrace of tranquility The sun is diving into the sea Take a deep breath and Save your dreams Raise your voice and sing with me CHORUS: Long-lost days will dawn again Despair and sorrow will Fade in the end All the pain you suffer All the tears you cry Are not in vain For they show you are alive Lonely I dwell in a Black endless night Still I am waiting for a Bright-shining light Take me away from Darkness and fear Send me a sign that Salvation is near Stay awake, don't fall asleep Carry on, hold on to your belief There'll be times to show strength There'll be times to bleed Now raise your voice and sing with me CHORUS Feel the morning sun warm your skin Let a new day begin CHORUS 07. Mortem Obi
Mortem obi
Surrounded by silence Amid the shadows of time Hollow and deep My future's dim ghastly shine No stone may fall No river may flow No hedge may grow Like time wore away On that very day I spent with you Dark is my future Dark is my past I've loved, lost and feared My presence at last Lost my will to live Fell asleep on a dark, dreary day I doze the centuries away Wake me up from my sleep And I'll be born again CHORUS: Life's a journey, I'm a traveller On floating streams Don't seek my heart It's lost forevermore Life's a journey, I'm a traveller With hope and dreams Time fades away as I gaze at the shore Help me to care My heart is beating loud and fast Help me to bear the burden of life A light straight from your eyes Beams brightly through the night I follow the road The end out of sight No candle may flicker No sundown will ever glow No river will ever flow No day will ever pass Faster than a day with you CHORUS Utendum est aetate Morituri te salutant Utendum est aetate E vita cede mortem obi CHORUS Mortem obi 08. In For The Kill
In for the kill!
In for the kill is the call Of a thousand throats Came together at the gates of Grailham City Eager to fight we abominate the turncoats Strong we are, side-by-side Well tanked up but witty Light in the east, heat of the south Pride in the west, death from the north Light in the east, heat of the south Pride in the west, death from the north CHORUS: Saving the grail is our entire desire The sun never sets on the Grailknights' empire Tonight we are in for the kill In for the kill, let us move Heaven and earth High-flyers as we are, the sky is no limit March alone but strike together No bitterness of hearth No matter where you come from Justice is the remit Light in the east, heat of the south Pride in the west, death from the north Light in the east, heat of the south Pride in the west, death from the north CHORUS In for the kill! Light in the east, heat of the south Pride in the west, death from the north Light in the east, heat of the south Pride in the west, death from the north CHORUS 09. Grailquest Gladiators
Raging madness, chaos and decay
Black smoke darkens the day Cries of wounded cut the air A little fight turns into a nightmare We're on the verge of war So spring to arms and join us No time to hesitate Neither wonders nor Prayers will help It's just you and your sword! CHORUS: We are flesh and bones Gladiators, drenched in blood Waving grailquest flags Raised above our heads Beyond sanity the dying goes on Till both power and bravery are gone From far away The sound of pounding drums Light is fading as evening comes Forget, do not regret Today we grind the battle-axe No time to hesitate Neither wonders nor Prayers will help It's just you and your sword! CHORUS Into deepest spheres we drift away Tell me, have we gone astray? Our callous eyes stare into space There is nothing but Emptiness to face CHORUS 10. Der König Von Thule Lyrics by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Es war ein König in Thule,
Gar treu bis an das Grab, Dem sterbend seine Buhle Einen goldnen Becher gab. Es ging ihm nichts darüber, Er leert' ihn jeden Schmaus; Die Augen gingen ihm über, So oft er trank daraus. Und als er kam zu sterben, Zählt' er seine Städt' im Reich, Gönnt' alles seinem Erben, Den Becher nicht zugleich. Er saß beim Königsmahle, Die Ritter um ihn her, Auf hohem Vätersaale, Dort auf dem Schloß am Meer. Dort stand der alte Zecher, Trank letzte Lebensglut, Und warf den heil'gen Becher Hinunter in die Flut. Er sah ihn stürzen, trinken Und sinken tief ins Meer. Die Augen täten ihm sinken Trank nie einen Tropfen mehr. |
