01. Chapter 1

1679, hall of Versailles,
Louis the XIV is having a party.
At this court of betrayers and liars
wheel of fate's gonna turn anyway...

"Welcome to my home, again.
Enjoy your time..."

And through the darkness
candles, lighten the hall
like thousands (of) dancers
reflecting on the walls...
"Let's start the dances,
no one shall stand tall..."

Midnight time, in the hall of Versailles
greatest pleasure: a present for Louis
it's a gift from the ruler of Venice
"... Just a portrait, my daughter in it"

In a beating of the heart
the king fell in love

And through the candles
Louis starts dreamin' on...
Dramatic fancy:
the king has fallen in love!

Oh, Kathryn, through the candles
I can see your face...
Oh, can't you see?
My heart is bleeding, screaming for you...

For love or lust,
feelings or passion, who knows?
And through the candles
Louis starts dreamin' on...
The king is calling,
who will dare to deny?

02. Kathryn

What happened? I can't stand it...
I don't like this feeling...
I'm Louis, the ruler,
I always get what I want!

And I need her love.
Now, before it's too late...
Yes, I need that girl,
oh, Kathrin, now I just need you
much more than the air...

Kathryn...
You'll be mine tomorrow.
Kathryn,
passion made me blind!
Kathryn,
I will stop my sorrow
Kathryn,
when you will be mine...

My heart beats for those eyes:
They've raped my soul...
Don't tell me what is right,
kings have no fault.

I need her lips,
Till then I'll have no peace.
Lost in your image
oh, Kathryn days that will follow
will not be the same...

Kathryn...
You'll be mine tomorrow.
Kathryn,
passion made me blind!
Kathryn,
I will stop my sorrow
Kathryn,
when you will be mine...

03. Sons Of Thunder

Sounds like someone called my name...
Then, you see, I'm here...
Strange it is to find myself
in this noble place.

Sure I kneel to the king of kings
and I'll swear my loyalty

Everything you may need
(and every word you say)
just put your faith on me...

Remember our name,
it comes from inside,
stronger than all we are
sons of thunder!

Hidden in the shade we creep,
deadly as a silent blade

We are wherever
(everywhere you go)
disguised in the night...

Remember our name,
it comes from inside,
stronger than all we are
sons of thunder!

04. Elegy

So finally here we are,
I'm walking on her path.
Soon my shade will melt with the night,
setting up my trap.

And like on a spider's web
you'll get trapped by me!

Oh, no. Please don't be afraid,
I'll surely take care of you...

We are victims or hunters,
this is our life (just our life... )
and with a face like yours,
you are the nicest prize...

Once I asked to myself
how far I went for his lust,
but your finest features
really pay me off.

You've been my challenge,
but now I will set your free.

We are victims or hunters,
this is our life (just our life... )
and with a face like yours,
you are the nicest prize...

05. Behind The Mask

No, please don't cry
don't waste all your tears on this.
'cause that is life,
a destiny tough to change.

The only way to escape
from reality lives in our dreams...

No, little girl
I'm sorry but that's not a dream
don't start beggin' me:
I'm not the reason of your tears

What do you think of me?
I'm not as cruel as you may think...

Now look at me,
tell me now: what do you see?
Oh, behind the mask
there's a man who used to cry.

Now come with me
it's too late, no turning back!
Few days and a king
is going to pretend your hand...

And I'll take care of you:
they paid for this. Don't blame me.

Now look at me,
tell me now: what do you see?
Oh, behind the mask
there's a man who used to cry.

06. Touch The Rainbow

As birds are free to fly away,
so spread your wings and take your flight.
And please, forgive me, if you can
I was much too deaf to hear you cry.

Go, then, take your freedom!
Damn, I know I'm doing what is right.

So run as fast as you can,
don't ever turn back, never!
Until we'll touch the rainbow,
and a new sun will shine upon this land...

I'm not an angel, yes, I know:
I'm just a man who used to fight alone.
But now I promise: don't be afraid,
no more tears tonight.

We will save our freedom,
God I know we're doing what is right...

So run as fast as you can,
don't ever turn back, never!
Until we'll touch the rainbow,
and a new sun will shine upon this land...

My soul won't find peace in this heart
till I see solace in your sullen face...
Chills running down my spine,
as your image flows through my mind...

Still I'd die for freedom,
the only thing I'm feeling right...

So run as fast as you can,
don't ever turn back, never!
Until we'll touch the rainbow,
and a new sun will shine upon this land...

07. Rage Of The King

So, is this the end?
Well, I won't forget...
Time will give me a chance
to get my revenge.

Oh no, in the heart of kings
there's no place for love.
Oh, Kathryn, won't you take my heart?
Then I'll love no one...

Wherever you may go
you'll never be alone
even beyond the seas
you'll taste the rage of the king!

No, there is no escape
from the hate I feel...
Blood! That's what I need,
blood... So sweet to me...

Oh no, in the heart of kings
there's no place for love.
Kathryn, won't you come to me?
... Why you left me alone... ?

Wherever you may go
you'll never be alone
even beyond the seas
you'll taste the rage of the king!

Wherever you may go
you'll never be alone
even beyond the seas
you'll taste the rage

08. Save Me

Ready to leave for the pride of my King,
ready to sin for his love,
what a strange world, where a kingdom may fall
for a "caprice" of a lord...

In my hall, there's a reek of sin that flows...
lost in the darkness I can feel Your presence,
my shame won't be cleansed anymore...

Save me, oh my God!
'cause I've got to sell my soul,
won't You save me once again?
Won't You hear my silent pray?

Slave to a portrait, the king fell in love:
"bring me that girl", his final words...
Should ever a poor man, as I really am
live by his faith, or obedience...?

In my hall, there's a reek of sin that flows...
lost in the darkness I can feel Your presence,
my shame won't be cleansed anymore...

Save me, oh my God!
'cause I've got to sell my soul,
won't You save me once again?
Won't You hear my silent pray?

09. Love

I'm not the same
a warrior soul that burns away for love
I'm in a haze but there's a light, riding from her face

Maybe it could be love,
'cause you're the one who can move my heart,
no more rain on us a new day will shine...

Something inside:
a strange feel I never had in all my life...
I understand:
Kathryn, you know your stare, just take my breath away

Now I know it's love,
'cause you're the one who can move my heart,
no more rain on us a new day will shine...

Now I know it's love,
'cause you're the one who can move my heart,
no more rain on us a new day will shine...
... I've left my old life behind...

10. Miles Away

Time has changed our lives
I'm searching for the answers
picking up the pieces of my live
somewhere along the way.

Can't you look me screaming?
I look for your face in this light
and you're reaching for something you never had
... I'm miles...
and we live the hard way
day by day
tears are far away
all the night is blinding me side by side

... I'm miles away...

Try to see my story from a different side
now I can remember
why I need to run.

Can't you look me screaming?
I look for your face in this light
and you're reaching for something you never had
... I'm miles...
and we live the hard way
live my day
tears are far away
and the night is blinding me side by side

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...

Time has changed our lives
I'm searching for the answers
picking up the pieces of my live
somewhere along the way.

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...

... I'm miles away...
