Title:Age Of False Innocence
cut off the light
take a look
there's nothing beyond but pain
suffer in the deepest void
the flame of hope is gone
what have I done?
denied the father and the sun
for a moment it seemed
there's space beyond the spheres
aflame the night
so clear and bright
unstable light
you've been sacrificed in fear
now there's one thing for sure
I'm not afraid anymore
day after day we've been fixed in this bowl
for so long
for ages we're captured in shells
and crystalized walls
predestined or punished?
by man or god?
I cannot, I will not
deny it's false innocence
I cannot, I will not
the age of false innocence
take it away from me
for a while
astronomy has moved the earth
and we've turned around the sun
sanctum officium
has made me believe
has made me believe
has made me believe
we know for sure you're lying
would you like to mess with holy science
you know the fear of dying
would it be worth it
to hear you crying
I've slaughtered truth
and I've shattered my heart
far too long I have played with hellfire
and science has turned into madness
but I should have taken it higher
so I feel so I feel
like judas must have felt before
that wednesday night near by the tree
I cannot, I will not
deny it's false innocence
I cannot, I will not
the age of false innocence
take it away from me
day after day we will
gratefully suffer for more
predestined's our part
so we bleed
in the name if god
don't believe in thier eternity
we're still held in blindness
and I've been turned into a liar
if there is no heaven
there won't be release
I cannot, I will not
deny it's false innocence
I cannot, I will not
the age of false innocence
I cannot, I will not...
deny it's false innocence
I cannot, I will not
the age of false innocence
take it away from me
Album:And Then There Was Silence
Title:And Then There Was Silence
Turn your head and see the fields of flames
He carries along
From a distant place
He's on his way
He'll bring decay
(don't move along cause things they will go wrong
the end is getting closer day by day)
in shades of grey
We're doomed to face the night
Light's out of sight
Since we've reached the point of no return
We pray for starlight
We wait for the moon
The sky is empty
Alone in the unknown
We're getting nowhere
We have been betrayed
By the wind and the rain
The sacred halls empty and cold
The sacrifice made should not be done in vain
Revenge will be taken by Rome
We live a lie
Under the dying moon
Pale faced laughs doom
Indulges in delight
It's getting out of hand
The final curtain will fall
Hear my voice
There is no choice
There's no way out
You'll find out
We don't regret it
So many man have failed
But now he's gone
Go out and get it
The madman's head it shall be thine
We don't regret it
That someone else dies hidden in disguise
Go out and get it
Orion's hound shines bright
Don't you think it's time to stop the chase
Around the ring
Just stop running, running
Round the ring
Don't you know that fate has been decided
By the gods
Feel the distance, distance
Out of reach
Welcome to the end...
Watch your step, Cassandra
You may fall
As I've stumbled on the field
Sister mine
Death's a certain thing
Find myself in darkest places
Find myself drifting away
And the otherworld
The otherworld appears
Find myself, she dies in vain
I cannot be freed
I'm falling down
As time runs faster
Moves towards disaster
The ferryman will wait for you
My dear
And then there was silence
Just a voice from the otherworld
Like a leaf in an icy world
Memories will fade
Misty tales and poems lost
All the bliss and beauty will be gone
May my weary soul find release for a while
At the moment of death I will smile
It's the triumph of shame and disease
In the end
Iliad
Raise my hands and praise the day
Brake the spell, show me the way
In decay
The flame of Troy will shine bright
The newborn child would carry ruin to the hall
The newborn's death will be a blessing to us all
Good choice?
Bad choice?
Out of three
You've choosen misery
Power and wisdom
You deny
Bad choice
War is the only answer
When love will conquer fear
So the judgment's been made
To the fairest
The graceful says
Badly he fails
Warning
Fear the heat of passion, father king
Don't let him in
Don't let her in
Desire, lust, obssession
Death they'll bring
We can't get out
Once they are in
She's like the sunrise
Outshines the moon at night
Precious like starlight
She'll bring in a murderous price
In darkness grows the seed of man's defeat
Jealousy
I can clearly see the end now
I can clearly see the end now
I can clearly see the end now
The thread of life in spun
The coin's been placed below my tongue
Never give up
Never give in
Be on our side
So we can win
Never give up
Never give in
Be on our side
Old moon's time is soon to come
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Nothing to lose
Like one we'll stand
We'll face the storm
Created by man
Troy, Troy, Troy, Troy
And as the lion
Slaughters man
I am the wolf
And you're the lamb
Hallowed Troy shall fall
Round the walls
Faith is shattered, bodies fall
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Nothing to lose
Like one we'll stand
It's all for one and one for all
All we live for will be wiped out
I feel that something's wrong
Surprise, surprise they're gone
Full moon your time goes by
And new moon's still kept out of sight
We live
We die
Misty tales and poems lost
All the bliss and beauty will be gone
May my weary soul find release for a while
At the moment of death I will smile
It's the triumph of shame and disease
In the end
Iliad
Roam in darkness
Spread the vision
We will be lost if you truly believe
Troy in darkness
There's a cold emptiness in our hearts
That they've gone away
And won't come back
They'll tear down the wall to bring it in
They'll truly believe in the lie
With blossoms they'll welcome the old foe
The vision's so clear
When day and dream unite
The end is near
You'd better be prepared
The nightmare shall be over now
There's nothing more to fear
Come join in our singing
And dance with us now
The nightmare shall be over now
There's nothing more to fear
The war it is over, forevermore
No hope
The blind leads the blind
Carry on
Though future's denied
Mare or stallion
There's far more inside
We are in at the kill
We'll cheerfully die
Misty tales and poems lost
All the bliss and beauty will be gone
May my weary soul find release for a while
At the moment of death I will smile
It's the triumph of shame and disease
In the end
Iliad
Its holy light shines on
So the judgement's been made
We're condemned though the trial's far ahead
The crack of doom
Father
Your handsome son is heading home
Heading home
Still the wind blows
Calm and silent
Carries news from a distant shore
Out of mind
Can't get it
Can't get it out of my head
Sorrow and defeat
Sorrow and defeat

Title:Battlefield
it cannot be seen
but there's blood on the green
only god knows I'm innocent
take me, take me home
a dark seed reigns in me
like the storm rules over the sea
i challenge thee, do not cross
the bridge alone
don't dare me now
the threatening shadow will pass by
they're getting closer now
open your eyes
wake up my dear young friend
and hate shall fade away
I will not move, yet
I'll stand still, instead
there on the battlefield he stands
down the battlefield he's lost
and on the battlefield it ends
war and anger shall reign
the clash of iron can be heard
by blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief
sorrow won't wane 'til you die
a shattered body deeply hurt
and darkness will cover the light
it's gone forevermore
the field's been left in sorrow
the father and the son
they're gone
the sun shines bright
and anger rises
lorn and lonely
torn apart
don't you think
it's time to stop now
we were charmed and fooled by the old serpent's kiss
let's pray
that heaven is on our side
through violence and horror
shall honour arise
so let's pray
and blessed shall be our leader
we follow the noble and bright
don't you hear me crying
crying
come take me away
I hallow thy name
there on the battlefield he stands
down the battlefield he's lost
and on the battlefield it ends
war and anger shall reign
the clash of iron can be heard
by blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief
sorrow won't wane 'til you die
a shattered body deeply hurt
and darkness will cover the light
it's gone forevermore
that's what the minstrel sing
join in the horrible screams
take part in murderous deeds
reowned be the lion-hearted
join in the minstrelsy
wailing our grief
it eagerly longs for more
broken bodies lay on the ground
blood sheds all over the place
the green will be stained forever
and hate reigns all over the field
they kepp struggling on in anger
fiercely intense
outrageous, too blind to see
and in pain they keep on singing
we claim the landfor the highlord
god bless the land and our highlord
war and anger shall reign
the clash of iron can be heard
by blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief
sorrow won't wane 'til you die
a shattered body deeply hurt
and darkness will cover the light
it's gone forevermore

Title:Precious Jerusalem
no doubt
doubt
no longer need to hide it
I've found out who I am
I'm moved around in circles
I rise and fall again
I know it well
every word I tell
seems to make no sense at all
words will heal it
love will conquer the
hearts of the hopeless
the almighty is still alive
risin' up from the heart of the desert
risin' up for jerusalem
risin' up from the heat of the desert
building up old jerusalem
risin' up from the heart of the desert
risin' up for jerusalem
risin' up from the heat of the desert
heading out for jerusalem
I've gone beyond but there's no life
and there is nothing how it seems
I've gone beyond but there's no life
there is no healing rain in eden
the empty barren waisted paradise
let's celebrate the dawning of the son
I turn to you oh my precious jerusalem
deny your prophets their passion
and treat them like fools
i turn to you oh my poor old jerusalem
deny my love but you can't change fate
son of man
you truly are mine
can't stand the pain
no more grief and misery
it goes on and on and on and on
and on and on and on
father stop it now
we must stop it now
you really think you are half way up
I would not mind if you were right
it's not sure
I'd rather say you are half way down
so I am going to help you
if I can
I've been caught
in wilderness
in wilderness
I've got out well
i found myself
in desert lands
in desert lands
in desert lands
but you've been on my mind
I turn to you oh my precious jerusalem
deny your prophets their passion
and treat them like fools
i turn to you oh my poor old jerusalem
deny my love but you can't change truth
rise up and follow me
cause I will bring the light
rise up and follow me
wake up and clear you mind
I tried to bring it back
the seed of life
I tried to bring it back
the seal of light
so if you say there's no faith in man
you'd better keep in mind
that I can read between the lines
my heavy burden brings
eyesight to the blind
I've been caught
in wilderness
in wilderness
I've got out well
i found myself
in desert lands
in desert lands
in desert lands
but you've been on my mind
I turn to you oh my precious jerusalem
deny your prophets their passion
and treat them like fools
i turn to you oh my poor old jerusalem
deny my love but you can't change me

Title:Punishment Divine
it's warm and tender
but very soon it will turn cold
shadows stare down from the walls
out of the mist it's coming closer now
it never rains -
it pours on me
so let the saints set up the curtyard
the unpleasant cage
the obvious point is
I'm insane
was I aware
whom I had slain
I fear I was
the faceless
the nameless
the bush set on fire
no one ever dared to speak
shame on me
I don't believe
the here and now
is all we're living for
joyful it seems
but then suddenly
by one fals move
it's blown away
joyful it seems
but then suddenly
thier voices cease
it's gone away
vanished
to the point of no return
vanished
to the point of no return
witness my last breath
I do not regret
a word I've said
the strong will survive
the weak must die
and out in the mist
it's coming closer now
sinner and saints -
the grateful slaves
natures law instead of god in heaven
from far beyond
I can hear them sing
I hear angels sing
songs of innocence
I hear the angel sing
despite the facts are clear
it cannot be
what I can't see
I must admit
it sounds so sweet
joyful it seems
but then suddenly
by one fals move
it's blown away
joyful it seems
but then suddenly
thier voices cease
it's gone away
vanished
to the point of no return
vanished
to the point of no return
angels sing I hear angels sing
can hear them sing
far beyond I hear them sing
it's true, it's true
we don't exist
from far beyond I hear them sing
it's true, it's true
we don't exist
well we all know
there's no other side
it's good and evil
I know right between
there's no borderline
this is punishment divine
surrounded by night
I've been offered insight
there is no one but the sin of pride
am I wrong am I right
am I losing my sight
abandoning the superior mind
joyful it seems
but then suddenly
by one fals move
it's blown away
joyful it seems
but then suddenly
thier voices cease
it's gone away
vanished
to the point of no return
vanished
to the point of no return
right away I will be gone
gone I will be gone
through the valleys grey
through the shapeless land
I walk alone
I'm left alone
through the deepest void
a blackened paradise
I walk alone
I'm left alone
Album:A Night At The Opera
Title:Sadly Sings Destiny
a wooden cup
and a crown of thorns
will set up the stage
for the cross
i rent a room next door
there is nothing more
no further voices hear
I'll be free
it doesn't matter anymore
that somesone's knocking at my door
I've known it long before
the galilean's on the floor
shame on me
shame on meI'm a tool and nothing more
I can feel it's getting nearer
images they'll turn out clearer
creeps in and out of you mind
I'm destiny personified
I know there's something more behind
but is it really justified
to sacrifice
to crucify
the rescue of the human kind
sadly sings destiny
sadly sings destiny
for ages I've been waiting
now spring is in the air
let it in
sadly sings destiny
sadly sings destiny
for ages I've been waiting
now spring is in the air
let it in
i hear them howling hear them scream
the raging mob turns mad it seemd
the king's in town
we need a crown
i think we all know
how it ends
so we're not going take it longer
so all I know is I don't care
so we're not going take it longer
now we are aware
I can feel it's getting nearer
images they'll turn out clearer
creeps in and out of you mind
I'm destiny personified
I know there's something more behind
but is it really justified
to sacrifice
to crucify
the rescue of the human kind
sadly sings destiny
sadly sings destiny
for ages I've been waiting
now spring is in the air
let it in
sadly sings destiny
sadly sings destiny
for ages I've been waiting
now spring is in the air
let it in
there I tie the ass
there I tie the colt
begging for a last chance
I hear the voices say
we get hin home tonight
and that's all you need to know
I'm alone
so I can't stand it any longer
and I don't want to see it all
nazarene your vision will come true
will come true
they'll get you
I can feel it's getting nearer
images they'll turn out clearer
creeps in and out of you mind
I'm destiny personified
I know there's something more behind
but is it really justified
to sacrifice
to crucify
the rescue of the human kind
sadly sings destiny
sadly sings destiny
for ages I've been waiting
now spring is in the air
let it in
sadly sings destiny
sadly sings destiny
for ages I've been waiting
now spring is in the air
let it in
enough?
