Once upon a time
No more words to say Find me in the circle Find me in the end I am the soul collector Dressed in ebony, There are no rules But only one There's someone young sister, Caught in the border Let's get in contact By the laws of mine I have told That this will never end (this will never end) Things go on But nothing will last, Only the fool in me believes There is sense in it In distant shores of grief It's over now! Far out in space I ride on, Time is chasing us all, It's not quite how it seems, It's just a dream I don't believe In a soul out of god It's just twisted! Fellow You do not understand Each single breath inspires you to come to an end - expire Rise up my sister Let's cross the border, Reveal the secret One more soul to burn I have told That this will never end (this will never end) Things go on But nothing will last, Only the fool in me believes There is sense in it In distant shores of grief It's over now! Something I'm close to, something left to do Draw near and prove yourself for brightening Prepare yourself, don't wait for me, Expect the day when I come You have reached out for a while, You may feel (down), There's a wreck there, don't turn your eyes Don't visions bleak, And its colour's black, Oh far beyond there is a star in dying sun I have told That this will never end (this will never end) Things go on But nothing will last, Only the fool in me believes There is sense in it. In distant shores of grief It's over now! 02. Otherland Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
They rule the land
They're in command They hold all strings in hand They are invisible Out of sight They've designed a secret place to play their games A world they're in control Divine law Divine law and Be aware, now mind your steps We are uninvited guests They may find and catch us Don't forget! Do what I say And now connect Don't even ask until we're out of it Everything's at highest stake Come take a look We are in Take a breath but don't forget It isn't real It isn't truth An illusion Nothing more You're part of the game You're slave to the grind Oblivion Is your key to the Otherland You're part of the game You're cursed You're damned By now you understand You're part of the game You're slave to the grind Oblivion You're welcome to the Otherland You're part of the game You're cursed You're damned By now you understand We get closer There's no better way Lullaby Lane Fate is on its way The inner district Is the place you need to know It's overwhelming So let's rest here for a while Someone else appears Silently Watch me when I fall down Everything seems real Suddenly Perfect simulation Come take a look Breathe it in Artificial wonderlands We are wandering around Things shall vanish They won't last Now I know You understand This world is not true Nothing is real Nothing at all It's bits and pieces We walk through You're a part of the game You're a slave to the grind Oblivion Is your key to the Otherland You're a part of the game You're cursed You're damned By now you understand You're a part of the game You're a slave to the grind Oblivion You've reached the promised land You're a part of the game You're cursed You're damned Welcome to the Otherland [Solo] Wait I can feel things are not right Do not breathe Don't look behind, There's someone else The observer A trick of light A fading line The entrance is gone We can't get out of it We are slightly losing ground Quick It is time We shall go We better leave And don't come back, No way to run Nowhere to hide I fear We're walking aimlessly You're a part of the game You're a slave to the grind Oblivion Is your key to the Otherland You're a part of the game You're cursed You're damned By now you understand You're a part of the game You're a slave to the grind Oblivion Welcome to the Otherland You're a part of the game You're cursed You're damned Welcome to the promised land You've crossed the line... You've reached the end... You've crossed the line... You've reached the end! 03. Turn The Page Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Hunter
We're here to praise your name, Blazing sun And a bitter death You're a guardian Cross the gate Wake up it is a new dawning Wake up the witches wait For you Remember the mirror When she looked in You were born in the void In the middle of none There was nobody else There was nothing at all Well sons and daughters Joy's in the air The horned one dies Renewal Everywhere Turn the wheel again A new beginning Another end Dried out the land needs blood Inside the ring we're waiting Give up yourself Enter life It's set out for you Come turn the wheel There is nothing to fear Come turn the wheel Come turn the page Come turn the page We do not believe in lies Do not believe in lies There is someone coming There is someone coming We hear a voice From underworld Now everything should move When a new day begins God of wind and god of rain Turn the wheel Oh you would better be aware The mermaids They will sing for you The nymphs will bless the child Reunite them Sacrifice him We will be with you until the end Come move our hearts We know There is light beyond the dark Dried out we cry for blood Conquer your fear and join us Come join us now Time is right It's set out for you Come turn the wheel There is nothing to fear Come turn the wheel Come turn the page Come turn the page [Solo] A new beginning Another end The myth of life You hold in your hand We cry out The land needs blood The change of season Praise to the newborn king It's set out for you Come turn the wheel There is nothing to fear Come turn the wheel Come turn the page Come turn the page 04. Fly Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Stop be quite now
Out with the light and Then up and down it goes Fly Out with the light There at the door The inspiration I've looked for The spirit of the youth appears No one ever dares to speak It's nothing else but fantasy It's make believe Make believe No one ever dares to speak It's nothing else but fantasy But one day It all will come to life Step out of line And I'll teach you how to fly Then away we'll go Leave your mark land of mine Leave your mark In the land of mine The second one to right And then straight on Until morning light Stop be quite now No irritation No, not the slightest doubt We got once Quick - we better hurry There from the road I sense The end of fun gets near Wonderful thoughts And imaginations These things will lift you up What is it like? You ask me, my dear Will there be fairies Or things to fear? For fairies sake I'd say You better come with me So soon you'll see Now up and down it goes And round Round and round and round Praise To my cleverness They all follow me All praise to innocence That's everything it needs Fly in Fly out They'll leave it all behind No one ever dares to speak It's nothing else but fantasy It's make believe Make believe No one ever dares to speak It's nothing else but fantasy But one day It all will come to life Step out of line And I'll teach you how to fly Then away we'll go Leave your mark land of mine Leave your mark In the land of mine [Solo] Life is a map And it is quite confusing The lights are up Now let the play begin She flies, she flies Into the light she flies No words like "Just" in mind She's finding Neverland There on the day she dies Don't stop it now She still enjoys the scene Don't stop it now Don't stop it now Don't stop it now Don't stop it now, now, now No one ever dares to speak It's nothing else but fantasy It's make believe Make believe No one ever dares to speak It's nothing else but fantasy But one day It all will come to life Step out of line And I'll teach you how to fly Then away we'll go Leave your mark land of mine Leave your mark In the land of mine 05. Carry The Blessed Home Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Pale faced, the innocent
Will drown in blood Hurt and withdrawn Don't dare to steal my grief In this haze of green and gold He's gone Blind my eyes And I still Can see through the mist To the very end There I'll face What I fear the most Blind my eyes But it all doesn't matter Right now. I would bury my dead And keep on 'Til the end I won't give up I won't give up I'll turn To the "red fields of none" There's a grave There's a rose Drift away I can hear me say Soon you all shall be free Carry the blessed home No one's left here but me And I'll sing out your name You call me insane, I know. I've open my heart And my soul to you son So pale turns the innocence And all I feel is pain Suddenly I understand He's gone Blind my eyes And I still Can see through the mist To the very end There I'll face What I fear the most. Blind my eyes But it all doesn't matter Right now. But it all doesn't matter Right now [Solo] Carry the blessed home No one's left here but me And I'll sing out your name. Driven insane? No What I feared the most I have faced, and that's truth. The grey faced is not innocent Though I cry in dismay I will follow decay I'll move on Is there anyone here Who knows How it feels to be wrong? Blind my eyes And I still Can see through the mist To the very end There I'll face What I fear the most Blind my eyes But it all doesn't matter Right now. But it all doesn't matter Right now Matter right now Matter right now 06. Another Stranger Me Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
A seed of doubt
It exists And it grows A glimpse of life From somewhere deep within Awake and understand Is there anyone else here? Somebody screaming Please help me Let's find out now That I am not dreaming Welcome to my damnation Here it comes the real me I didn't know I couldn't hear the answer My mind was blank I should have known I hold it back but somehow There is someone else Another stranger me Another stranger me That's When the ice Will break away I can't get out here Anymore Cause none of my keys Fit the door There's fear and anger Hate and love I must confess It's out of hand It's cynic It's cynic Still cynic All my laughter It's cynic Just manic It's cynic All her laughter If there's anyone in It soon will be over We'll burn out Our soul's aflamed And we're on our own now Give up you cruel invasion You're insane I'll show you I didn't know I couldn't hear the answer My mind was blank I should have known I hold it back but somehow There is someone else Another stranger me [Solo] Out and gone Can't resist Cold and sore The bolt of pain Keeps ripping through my head I can take no more Don't tell anyone else but I Do not believe her See hates me Cloud my mind She's a deceiver I can feel cruel vibrations Would you like to meet me? I didn't know I couldn't hear the answer My mind was blank I should have known I hold it back but somehow There is someone else Another stranger me Another stranger me 07. Straight Through The Mirror Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Can you tell me
Is there any other way? I cannot hide it I have doubts I'm not afraid to stay I'm here When the curtain falls Once I've touched the rainbow, The man on the moon will appear I won't show fear I turn to you, father death I'm begging you Please Consider You may have been wrong Just close your eyes now Just close your eyes now The end's a miracle Dream on if you dare Straight through the mirror We'll sail on through the air There's magic everywhere Just be aware Wake up when the crow will call There is no truth There are no rules, There's no plot here It's twisted We're still on course My friend Down to the abyss - Orcus lane Shelter of your memories Shelter of your pain The mirror shows truth Reveals what you are A phoenix in flames Arise from the ashes again We're on our way now We're on our way now The end's a miracle Dream on if you dare Straight through the mirror We'll sail on through the air [Solo] I feel There is something wrong It's twisting and turning When everything's burning Awake It's not safe And I'm coming down to you again We'll sail our miracles and then If you don't mind I'll sing a song A song of lullaby this time When you're asleep I'm back again The world of miracles in hand If you don't mind I'll sing a song A sort of lullaby this time We're on our way now We're on our way now The end's a miracle Dream on if you dare Straight through the mirror We'll sail on through the air There's magic everywhere Just be aware Wake up when the crow will call Wake up when the crow will call 08. Lionheart Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Just let me out of here
Speak to me It all would be easier I want to talk to you Who is that? Do I hear a whisper? Or do I hear a cry? Across the brown land The stumps of time Oh turn the wheel and heal me Since moonlight fade I'm empty - heal me I'm in search of the Lionheart I am ashamed I myself can't make it Drown Ulysses Drown here in the silence Cause down to Hades I've gone But I cannot get out Down below I can't free my mind Soon I will fade away Down below I can't free my mind Soon I will fade away "Tic Tac" is the message And the lunatic fears He is no more Speak to me It all would be easier While I'm passing by Who's that? Do I hear a whisper? Or do I hear a cry? Across the brown land The ghosts arrive Pick up my bones and Tell me Is this the "Lake of Fire"? Hell? Please I'm in search of the Lionheart Nobody else But the pure can save me Drown Ulysses Drown here in the silence Cause down to Hades I've gone But I cannot get out [Solo] Ruins rule my memories I can't recall the signs Invite the dead Then silence struck my mind Silence is madness "Tic Tac Tic Tactic" Says the clock Just let me out of here Speak to me It all would be easier I want to talk to you Hear me Welcome to the sad place And hand me what is mine I'm the Theban prophet The dead and blind And from sea you'll feel me Then you'll breath out gently Leave me I'm in search of the Lionheart I am ashamed I myself can't make it Drown Ulysses Drown here in the silence Cause down to Hades I've gone But I cannot get out 09. Skalds And Shadows Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Would you believe
In a night like this? A night like this When visions come true Would you believe In a tale like this? A lay of bliss We're praising the old lore Come to the blazing fire and See me in the Shadows See me in the Shadows Songs I will sing Of runes and rings Just hand me my harp And this night Turns into myth Nothing seems real You soon will feel The World we live in Is another skald's Dream in the shadows Dream in the shadows Do you believe There is sense in it Is it truth or myth? They're one in my rhymes Nobody knows The meaning behind The weaver's line Well nobody else But the Norns can See through The blazing fires of time and All things will proceed as the Child of the hallowed Will speak to you now See me in the Shadows See me in the Shadows Songs I will sing Of tribes and kings The carrion bird And the hall of the slain Nothing seems real You soon will feel The World we live in Is another skald's Dream in the shadows Dream in the shadows Do not fear for my reason There's nothing to hide How bitter your treason How bitter the lie Remember the runes And remember the light All I ever want Is to be at you side We gladden the raven Now I will Run through the blazing fires That's my choice Cause things Shall proceed as foreseen 10. The Edge Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
The world turned innocence
Can you hear me? I confess I'm no redeemer Can you hear me? What shall I do? I witnessed everything Faith won't leave me Mind my tongue It's like a fire Faith don't leave me Glow into words This is the edge now It's all we're living for Rain on me Love you will rain on me And at the end I, Boast in he cross And now Love reigns - The god incarnation I've shaped Out there is a world on fire Accursed the hanged one Divine love for free What a fateful night And a grateful life The choir echoes "Every man his price" Price Light my agony And crucify me Void the law At the ninth hour Void the law At the ninth hour This is the edge now It's all we're living for Rain on me Love you will rain on me And at the end I, Boast in he cross And now Love reigns - The god incarnation I've shaped [Solo] The world turns flesh again No more fear in Mystified are the final hours No more fear in Passover The brook Time it is at hand Obscure the facts A passion play This is the edge now It's all we're living for Rain on me Love you will rain on me And at the end I, Boast in he cross And now Love reigns - The god incarnation I've shaped Hallowed be thy name Hallowed be thy name No more fear in Come take a look The old symbols they move Wounds still bleed That's creed No more fear in Can you see me? Come take a look At the depth of my soul 11. The New Order Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
Would you open the door
Son I know the way Soon a flickering light Will grow Leave it to me now Unchained Unchained Would you open the door Enter the here and now A new horizon You'll rise you'll fall And learn to live Keep the faith - keep the pace Your soul's like water but Your fate is like the wind Here is the new order Hope shall be your guide Praise the new order Now let my spirit go Do you remember When we were moon knights? We've slain the dragon In the room Now yours is the future Your quest the truth How will it end up I really do not know This is no wonderland Just keep in mind Like a spell in certain books Time will change it all Away - oh please embrace me Away - I will be gone I'll take a look to see What lies beyond The break of dawn Would you open the door There is so much more to say Keep the faith Keep the pace Your soul's like water, but Your fate is like the wind Here is the new order Hope shall be your guide Praise the new order Now let my spirit go [Solo] Will you remember the old rule? Will you fulfill this sacrifice? Done for the future Space for the new How will it end up? That's up to you You're on the bridge - On the borderline No matter how You'll never ever leave it Here is the new order Hope shall be your guide Praise the new order Now let my spirit go Times will change The soul's like water and Like rain it will return Live on in healing rain The past shall find release 12. Dead Sound Of Misery Music by Olbrich/Kursch Lyrics by Kursch
It's dark
Let's do it now Bring in the sirens Cut of their tongues Do it now Ignore their cries Ignore their cries Now close the door And leave it Nothing went wrong The Archangel is falling Mourners split Take heart of grace A ghostly candle light Lit my room at night Son of man We're breeding wastelands Wastelands The blood of Sirens On my hands I can't wash away Still it pours And stains our land In bitterness So cruel Will ages go by Dead sound of misery Come share our sorrows Be one with the Hydra It's drown or burn I'm exploring bedlam The time is right to move Furthermore Bring out the dead Turn your back On the ones you have loved Enjoy the heat of your whore Babylon Hear what the spirits says There is no sense at all Now come with me Unfold the seals No sense at all No sense at all There is no sense at all So many times I have failed Pure desperation Still hear the cries Of voices Long gone by They've gone abroad And left this world behind Leave me behind Behind the walls I'm crying The blood of Sirens On my hands I can't wash away Still it pours And stains our land In bitterness So cruel Will ages go by Dead sound of misery Come share our sorrows Be one with the Hydra So many times I have failed Pure desperation Still hear the cries Of voices Long gone by They've gone abroad And left this world behind Leave me behind Behind the walls I'm crying The blood of Sirens On my hands I can't wash away Still it pours And stains our land In bitterness So cruel Will ages go by Dead sound of misery Come share our sorrows Be one with the Hydra 13. All Kings Horses
I can feel I'm one
With the tortured land With its solitude and decay There's no one left All the other men Pass on through the night All dead and gone Still I don't dare to move The imprisoned soul Cannot find back home Snow falls down It covers field and blood Snow falls down And clears the view It is cold And once again The battle's fought Out on the plains So rhymes spread out its glory But No rhyme defines its pain I can't recall all their names Connection broke loose They've crossed the lake Reach the other side And leave me alone With the truth All the king's horses And all the king's men They've failed to damn the flood They've failed to find the grail Talisien, old friend of mine Sing my song Then once again The battle's lost I am to blame Snow falls down All dead and gone They all are dead and gone They've turned to dust They've sealed the past A long long time ago I can't recall all their names Connection broke loose They've crossed the lake Reach the other side And leave me alone With the truth I can't recall all their names Connection broke loose They've crossed the lake Reach the other side And leave me alone With the truth |
