'till the bitter end |
Alas, my love, you surely do me wrong
For you to cast me out discourteously (from this world)
For I have loved you well and long
You stole my heart and hurled it to the night
The sword was gleaming in the pale sunlight
My last thought was of your face
Will you hold my hand 'till the bitter end?
'Till the darkness comes, and the stars grow dim?
The I would know although we've been through hell
You've always loved me well
"And thus I take my leave of this world and of you all.
O Lord, have no mercy on me.
To God I commend my soul.
God save the king."
Will you hold my hand 'till the bitter end?
'Till the darkness comes, and the stars grow dim?
Godspeed my love, although we've through hell
You've always loved me well

Repentance |
Your head is weighed down by the crown, your eyes are
closed and face is drawn
No one can be trusted, no one's on your side
The clock ticks as your body aches; can't stop the demon
that awakes
The urge to leave your inner senses far behind
You face the painting on the wall and wonder how you lost
it all
Recalling every minute of your great demise
You'll light the fires - burn to dust, can't hear their cries -
you've lost their trust
You know that you are sending them to paradise
One day...
(One day to live)
One night...
(One night to die)
Through fading time and darkening sky
A sister's laugh, a mother's cry
How in the end - 'twas all a lie
They're far away - can't hear you call
Who could've guessed what grief would bring
Was reckless passion worth it all?
You always knew that tears could sting
You won't give yp, you'll stay alive
Your will is strong, you will survive
What goes around will surely come around
Mary - don't go round

Signs of fire |
I felt you calling me; your heat blazed out and seared my skin
You're far - too close to me; a scorching passion burns within
As I slowly fall apart, old scars now slowly start to glow
Take hold within my heart; tell me how to let you go
Forbidden love's no game to play for a pawn with no control
Your fire in my soul - I don't know how to put it out
Burning, unrestrained, inside me
Don't tell me not to go; I really have to blow it out
This self-destructive fancy
Can only blame myself, I yearned to tempt and to seduce
I got us in this mess and now we face this awful truth
Keep moving back and forth; endless desire - going blind
My compass pointing north; can't get you off my mind
Forbidden love's the game to play
But, my face is towards home - I have to go
Your fire in my soul; I tried so hard to smother you
Your forceful flames inside me
But I don't want to go and I cannot abandon you
My self-destructive fancy
Your fire in my soul - I don't know how to put it out
Your forceful flames inside me
But I don't want to go and
I don't want to blow it out
My self-destructive fancy

Shadow falls |
Twilight - young queen to be crowned
Twilight - blasts are shaking the ground
She's the one to regain wayward glory
He's the one to maintain royal blood
She's Savior, he's a God
Twilight - they have come to arrest them
Twilight - they've got axes and fire
They have come to avenge slaughtered brothers
They have come to demand all control
Take their heads and damn their souls
Shadow falls on the realm, shadow falls on the city
Let the final royal feast begin
There will be no remorse, no regrets out of pity
In a game that nobody can win
Morning - rebels circle around
Morning - they're nowhere to be found
They set off in pursuit to reclaim them
When they finally get them in hand
Trial of treason they will stand
Shadow falls on the realm, shadow falls on the city
Let the final punishment begin
There will be no remorse, no regrets out of pity
In a game that nobody can win
Daytime - in the countryside
Daytime - in a carriage they ride
Local spots them and gives them directions
So the king throws a coin to the grunt
With his face stamped on its front
Shadow falls on the realm, shadow falls on the city
Guillotine blade falling from above
There will be no remorse, no regrets out of pity
When a God trades kingdom up for love
Shadow falls on the realm, shadow falls on the city
Let the final royal feast begin
There will be no remorse, no regrets out fo pity
In a game that nobody can win

The lantern |
Chiulling winds won't stop from blowing
I go and hear voices calling me
Feet are numb in icy snow
But I know - out there someone's needing me
Frozen trees bend helplessly
They're really warning me
I won't give in to the storm
I'll keep on moving along
The lantern in my hand, the fire in my soul
Will save me from the darkness
Won't let me slip and fall
The lantern in my heart will be my only guide
Will save me from the darkness
And lead me through the night
Reckless step - there is no light
All right, I lost my only friend
Hopeless now, I look around
And I know I'm doomed, but I'll just pretend

Believe in forever |
Standing alone in the shade
Watching the latest attraction
Spotted a quaint arcade
Seemingly out of the action
Flickering lights left to right
Looking grotesque there's no doubt
Pushing a coin inside
Reading the card that came out
If you're alone and in need of a friend
Don't be afraid and just pull the lever
Time to be brave, live your dreams to the end
Go for a ride and believe in forever
That was a few months ago
Moments I clearly remember
Counting the days till I go
Doctors say maybe September
Standing alone in the shade
Trying to make a connection
Wondering why I'm detained
And wearing restraints for protection

Midnight eternal |
The strike of midnight, all have gone to sleep
They're out again to roam the lonely street
They look for love; they want to play a gem
Another conquest, a heart to tame
Silence deafening; the lights still bright
No time to wait, it has to be tonight
With quiet footsteps in the frosty air
Another victim frozen in his stare
Midnight Eternal
It's always darkest before the dawn
Midnight Eternal
Full moon has risen, the night goes on..
Midnight Eternal
He walks away, his tread is light
She follows him into the dead of night
The night is dim, but his beauty glows
She'd follow him wherever he would go
She closes her eyes, finds herself alone
Frozen and fearful far from home
Staring blindly at the midnight skies
The stars are burning right before her eyes
Midnight Eternal
Midnight Eternal
Midnight Eternal
It's always darkest before the dawn
Midnight Eternal
Wanting forever, the night goes on..
Midnight Eternal

When love and faith collide |
Darkest night turned into shiny morning
By the turn of friendly cards
Flash of light, then, without warning
Love awoke inside their hearts
She confessed to him she even dared to resist her inner fears
But the voices outside whispering
"He does not belong in here"
When love and faith collide
Feelings can't defeat their pride
Slave to righteous prophets in disguise
Love will always pay the price
When love and faith collide, reason's taken for a ride
Ain't no stranger to this sacrifice
Love will always pay the price
By the endless dawn she takes a vow
To let you go of sinful dreams
Troubled whispering
To end it now and forget about him
How can you explain a broken heart
What had crushed that precious bond?
Why two loving souls were set apart
Leaving feelings far beyond?
|

Like an eternity |
Eternal engines roar and shatter silent sky
(We're patrolling the ocean)
We're searching high and low, we ask no questions why
(And serve with pride and devotion)
They lose their hopes, they think it's all in vain
What we do doesn't matter
They write us off and then try to explain
That we don't know any better
We're sworn and under command
It's all that we go by and understand
It's our allegiance, it's our affinity
We'll do what we have to do; no praise, no recognitions is due
We have been waiting for, been waiting like an eternity
Another sleepless night, the search goes on and on
Each day our chances get slimmer
Tomorrow is unknown, it chills us to the bone
As our patience runs thinner
We're sworn and under command
It's all that we go by and understand
It's our allegiance, it's our affinity
We'll do what we have to do; no praise, no recognitions is due
We have been flying for, been flying like an eternity

Silence |
From a dream she wakes to a barren frozen sky
Rain is pounding the window pane outside
Shadows in the night swirling, tears are falling
All around her are memories
Tell me why he won't remember silence in the night
Magic swirling all arounds us, calling
When I close my eyes I'll always see you in my dreams
In another life she was walking in the wood
Meet me at the lake tonight
Calling out to him always there is no answer
She was waiting all on her own
But tell me why you won't remember storms of frozen ice
Sea was calling in the distance, crying
High above the world they floated, never touching ground
Something's always bound to happen, surely
He was the one who wanted
He was the one who was always there
She was the one who called out
Never wanted more
All the love she dreamed before

First time thrill |
Since the age of three I lived in silent misery
Was taught to keep the faith, obey the rules, and pray
I knew the day would come when I'd break free from everyone
To claim my freedom and to disappear away
It must be unreal, first time thrill
To be free of guilt to sin
To experience and feel warmth inside me
Through your solemn eyes I'll see a different light
In you solemn eyes I'll drown with you beside me
Through your solemn eyes..
Across the clouds of clove fields we'll disappear
eternally
The night is young, I know, but I can't wait too long to go
Away from prison, wicked place where I belong
You promised you'd be near to take me far away from here
Tonight's the night, I know you'll come - I can't be wrong
I'm counting every hour, I'm counting every breath
As anguish gains its power, I can't control my wrath
I feel like I'm lost tonight, I fell like the world abandoned me
I shout out with all my might, to conquer this endless misery
I'm looking through the window, I think I'm going mad
Perhaps I'm stuck in limbo, I'd rather die instead
I'm flying into the night, I sense lethal ground is drawing near
And something just isn't right, I landed and fainally can hear
I'm screaming in pain
As I sail to the shores of frever
Gliding fast through the layers of time
I confess we could not be together
Was it really so heinous a crime?
Living a lie that you're just an illusion,
living a lie to pursue my delusion
How could I dare to create my own world?
Dreaming, living forever in love
Living - forever in love..
Dying - forever in love.
