1. The Chamber Of Confession

[Instrumental]

2. The Source Of Pain

Before god you must tell the truth

As you know this is a trial

What have I done? I am innocent.

I do not understand

Oh, I see you deny the crimes

Let us find out what is true

What do you do, What's going on?

Tell me where I am

Welcome, to the cellar of pain

Let the questioning begin

I'm the chief magistrate

In god I put my faith

Blasphemous lying beast

The devil is your lord

Insane, a big mistake

What have you been told?

I want you to tell me

Kneel and confess what you are

I'm a master of torture

But the pain that you feel is the dark

The source of...

The source of pain

To the end of your life and forever more

The source of...

The source of pain

To the end of your life and forever more

Look around, what you see

Is gonna make you talk

Chains and racks don't frighten me

I'm innocent and free

Is that a sarcastic tongue

I hear in front of me?

I don't care what you think

But scare me you cannot

I want you to tell me

Kneel and confess what you are

I'm a master of torture

But the pain that you feel

Is the dark

The source of...

The source of pain

To the end of your life and forever more

3. Victim Of The Inquisition

[The Chief Magistrate - The Testimony of a Condemned Man]

Oh, my dear beloved Anne

I write you in blood

From my wounded finger nails

In my cell, in gods hell

I'm waiting for more torture

And a certain death - fur sure

Through these wet walls of stone

I can hear their pain-machines

And the screams from all the dying

Believe me - I am - innocent I swear

It's true, but I can't take it any more

I confess - just to get relieved

They've crushed my kneecaps,

Fingers and my feet

Still they drag me down the

Stairs, so who's satanical

Many hundred thousand goodnights my love

Innocent I'll die -

I'm a victim of the inquisition

Flee from town before it is too late,

you are no longer safe

I hope these words,

will reach you somehow,

goodnight,farewell my love

They've crushed my kneecaps,

Fingers and my feet

Still they drag me down the

Stairs, so who's satanical?

Many hundred thousands goodnights my love

Innocent I'll die -

I'm a victim of the inquisition

4. Madness

[The Chief Magistrate - Beyond Pain]

The crazy man inside my head

Waking up with empty eyes

He envies me, wishes that I was dead

My common sense wants to see him die

Taking over more and more

He's screaming through my soul

He uses my eyes to make me see

The world in a twisted reality

The power of madness

Is tearing down my mind

Into the darkness of fools

Where shadows lurk and madness rules

Madness, madness, madness

Madness is tearing down my mind

Madness, madness, madness

Madness, my senses going blind

Too late for me, insanity

Is spreading like a disease

My body shake, a nervous ache

I'm going crazy

Help, for god's sake

The power of madness

Is tearing down my mind

Into the darkness of fools

Where shadows lurk and madness rules

Madness, madness, madness

Madness is tearing down my mind

Madness, madness, madness

Madness, my senses going blind

I'm laughing at god

And I'm laughing at satan in hell

I'm fettered in chains on the rack

Suffering god's torture and pain

Inquisition, a demon you are

Take a life to find out a false truth

But after you've stolen my life

you'll suffer the vultures' fete

I confess, I'm the one, take my life

Make it done, once and for all

I feel no more, care no more, see no more

The pain is gone

Madness is stronger than mind

In this land where I am

Everything is fine

You torture me, but I am free

I feel nothing, crazy me

The power of madness

Is tearing down my mind

Into the darkness of fools

Where shadows lurk and madness rules

Madness, madness, madness

Madness is tearing down my mind

Madness, madness, madness

Leave the common sense behind

5. A Final Farewell

[The Chief Magistrate - Father & Daughter]

Hangman's dais

Not far from the crossfire stake

She stands there concealed with her cloak

Remembering her father's last words;

"Goodnight my precious

Flee from this town while you can"

Her sense fills with anger and sorrow

Her tears make her freeze in the chill

...So alone

Leave her father alone

...So alone

God, leave him alone

Towards the fire

She looks at his eyes with despair

His body is weak, and he's bleeding

From wounds made by iron and chains

...So alone

Leave her father alone

...So alone

God, leave him alone

A final goodbye

A silent farewell from his eyes

He's laughing and gives her a grin

Through the madness, he still understand...

...That it's her

Rememering her eyes

...It is her

Through the madness he cries

...So alone

She's walking away

...So alone

But he will be reborn

6. Maleficium

I'm burning - in fire

So hard to stand against the flames

Deception - who told them

About the magic I possess?

The power - from your well

Are slowly peter out

Mother - of Tellus

Give me strength

To cast a spell

You burn me now

Before them all

You fear my kind

Because of the things I know

Magic knowledge

Ancient secret rituals

Black forbidden

Maleficium

Save me - I'm dying

Give me a shelter after life

Curse them - my tormentors

Give them the spell of the purple sand

You burn me now

Before them all

You fear my kind

Because of the things I knwo

Magic knowledge

Ancient secret rituals

Black forbidden

Maleficium

I'm boiling - I'm coming

Hail you, the guardian of the earth

I'm burning - and dying

But wait and witness my rebirth

You burn me now

Before them all

You fear my kind

Because of the things I know

Magic knowledge

Ancient secret rituals

Black forbidden

Maleficium

7. It

[The Guardian - The Awakening]

You have awakened me

From my deep lethargy

Finally, you have gone too far

With your deeds

How many innocents have you

Killed, you hands of god?

You practise the evil that you

Accuse your victims to conduct

In the end you will be punished

Into the purple eternity

And I will live forever

Because I can't be defeated

8. Master Of The Masquerade

[The Guardian - Anger and Damnation]

Pain - doesn't matter much to me

I was born out of chaos of time

So I knoe what suffering means

Rage - I am black inside my soul

Don't you know that I'm hiding inside you?

I am the master of disguise

A new wind of justice shall blow over earth

The soul that you keep is going to be reborn

Awake - I will conquer once again

My power shall rule over you

And crush the evil that you do

Shame - what do you think I am

You moulder my roots with your trials

How many victims have died

A new wind of justice shall blow over earth

The soul that you keep is going to be reborn

The master of the masquerade

I am

The master of the masquerade

Die - wither in my hell

My black soul is all over you

I'll get you, you know that I will

Lies - you charlatans of Christ

You indoctrinate all the ones you scare

Then - you control, their fear

Shame - what do you think I am

You moulder my roots with your trials

How many victims have died

A new wind of justice shall blow over earth

The soul that you keep is going to be reborn

The master of the masquerade

I am

The master of the masquerade...

9. Witches' Garden

[The Guardian - The Secret Truth]

In secret I am, earth and hell

Beginning and the end

In darkness I dwell, inside my shell

With honour to defend

Let my spirit grow in peace

Take away your false beliefs

Witches' garden - mother earth

I am death and I am birth

The secret knowledge

In dust of thoughts, from open doors

I watch you rape my soul

By torturing the secret truth

The keepers and my youth

Let my spirit grow in peace

Take away your false beliefs

Witches' garden - mother earth

I am death and I am birth

The secret knowledge

Christianity, a try to rule

A tribute to the fools

You've set me free, the entity

That holds the mystery

Let my spirit grow in peace

Take away your false beliefs

Witches' garden - mother earth

I am death and I am birth

The secret knowledge

The secret knowledge

10. Dragon's Lair

[The Guardian - The Myth]

Dragon guarded the treasure

Glittering gold and silver

Smell of sulphur and fire

In the dragon's lair

Hidden in his mountain

Upon the bones of those who failed

With their heroic mission

To kill the sleeping beast

One eye always open

Watching you

Guarding gold and diamonds

Breathing doom

Greedy in his nature

But he can give, to the unarmed

A shiny piece of silver

To hold close to their heart

That they can keep his secret

Until it's time to fly

To bargain in Mangonia

A place beyond the sky

One eye always open

Watching you

Guarding gold and diamonds

Breathing doom

The dragon's lair

The guardian

The dragon's lair

The guardian

The dragon's lair

He gathers all the chosen

To worship mother earth

Charm them with his treasure

The knowledge they all need

They're waiting for transcendence

To walk the dragon's path

And spread his wisdom

The myth that they shall feed

One eye always open

Watching you

Guarding gold and diamonds

Breathing doom

The dragon's lair

The guardian...

11. The Devil In Me

[The Chief Magistrate - A Meeting Between the Condemned]

Blackened skies, dark harmonies

Sombre tunes, grey melodies

A throne of gold (platinized bones)

The moonlight shining red

The secret ryche in my head

He rips the wall between our minds

His prison faces this other side

He screams

The devil in me

The devil in me

Silvery tears from tired eyes

Abysmal roar the devil cries

He faces a fallen paradise

Built by fools (and fatal lies)

A fallen beast, a fallen man

Both deceived, we stand condemned

I understand his better thoughts

He wanted freedom, now he's caught within

The devil in me

The devil in me

Once we both believed in god

He told us lies, a pact in blood

Through madness we travelled, on angelical demons

Up and down in the sand glass of oblivion

Remember, remember

My daughter and her eyes...

A throne for me, a throne for him

A throne for all the fallen kings

We march the road to the fallen gates

To rule the purple barren waste

The moonlight shining red

The secret ryche in my head

He rips the wall between our minds

His prison faces this other side

He's free - the devil in me

The devil in me

The devil in me

The devil in me

The devil in me

12. Where Fallen Angels Rule

[The Chief Magistrate - A Message from Beyond]

Child of life, hear me cry

I'm calling from the other side

On forgotten waves, beyond my grave

I send you thoughts so save your prayers

Never say die, you have to rely

On your inner strength that never dies

I'm relieved, my spirit's free

From here I rule my own destiny

The retribution, fly on wings

Eating falseness, blame and sin

Endless rows of crucified

All tormentors that us denied

Here they suffer, here they pay

Here they will forever stay

Understand my situation

I am a revenging angel

Where fallen angels rule

I've seen the future in my dreams

Evil is a giant wheel

That's rolling on through endless time

With its perfect flawless chime

Manipulating man and mind

Make 'em greedy, senseless, blind

But here they hang, the wretched fools

In this land where angels rule

Where fallen angels rule

13. Creatures Of The Hierarchy

[Vultures Fete]

Beyond the wall, there's a land of gold

Hard to believe, but it's for real

A prolongation of your dreams

It has been there since the dawn of time

In astral skies, there live the allies of the

Secret hierarchy

Eternal hunger, rule their destiny

They're taking care of

The malice and malignity

Eyes of fire, tremendous signity

Screaming flyers

The creatures of the hierarchy

They are the servants of a thousand kings

They ride the wind, on giant wings

Obey their masters, eating sin

There is a place in this paradise

A purple hell, a desert land

Where darkness suffer to the end

Eternal hunger, rule their destiny

They're taking care of

The malice and malignity

Eyes of fire, tremendous dignity

Screaming flyers

The creatures of the hierarchy

11. Gilgad (The Sanctified)

1. Out In The Silence

Leviathans from my bed everything is spinning around my head

in the ceiling there is a hole a black nothing wants me to come

I believe that all our fantasies becomes real in the void and in our dreams

I embark the cimmerian skies and I see a man with flagrant eyes

I penetrate his empty shell he is the oracle of hell

I believe that all our fantasies becomes real I believe in evil dreams

Out in the silence of death into the palace of darkness

is this a dream where I die

In this emptiness I fly my memories begin to fade

I don't remember who I am I was and now I am again

Out in the silence of death into the palace of darkness reincarnation new life

2. Time Is God (Master Of Eternity)

I have been in tomorrow there was not much to see

I was the only one cause no one else could be

Well time was there as an insult to the watch he is the master of eternity

There is time to gain there is time to lose we are ruled by its course

we live and we die but time goes on through every now

forever more- the time is god

He is a collector of everything we do and every scene goes on forever more

I have seen the echoes from the past in a dimension never known to us

There is time to gain...

Always presence and never late he does not care he is just watching our fate

And whatever we are supposed to do

we cannot change the fact that we are ruled

There is time to gain...

3. To Isengard

To Isengard though Isengard be ringed and barred with doors of stone

Though Isengard be strong and hard as cold as stone and bare as-bone...

We go we go we go to war to hew the stone and break the door

For bole and bough are burning now the furnace roars we go to war

To land of gloom with tramp of doom with roll of drum we come we come

We come we come with rool of drum with horn and drum we come

4. Why?

[Dedicated to Jens Roos 1978-1986]

Why? Taken away and gone forever cry I will always remember you

If I could turn back time and make a new tomorrow lost in memories I cry

These tears are meant for you I'm crying over you

Why take away the life of an innocent child

a part of me will always be a part of you

Pain a broken heart, a darkened soul

but life must go on even though the darkest time

5. Mad Messiah

Mad Messiah falls but hallowed you were sanctified

your fantastic lies were followed by the weak and blind

they believed in you so badly and practised what you preached

you took the name of god in vain were you man or beast

Your assembly and requiem your prophecy of doom

the redeemer in the sky did he laugh or cry

You lead them to the doom god's almighty lord praise the fools of earth

Mad messiah salvation by fire

If he told you what to do god must be evil too

in desperation humiliation you took their lives away

Your bad religion and sectarianism it is all a mad man's work

dehumanized then sacrificed to an empty sky

You lead them to the doom god's almighty lord praise the fools of death

Mad Messiah salvation by fire

Mad Messiah you were a liar just a fraud and fake

what is there to say you burned in hell I hope you were satisfied

You lead them...

6. Another Dawn

Oh Daddy come and see please come and talk to me I am so alone and scared

No, you must not cry I know I am gonna die but I need to see you strong

Death is getting close within please hold me in your arms when I fly away

Daddy, are you here can you see her eyes they're gleaming like the stars

An angel from above she wants me to come to the shining light

I see visions giant birds of prey will come to take me far away

I ain't scared no more the place where I will go will take away the pain

you are fading away to a shade of grey and I meet another dawn

7. In The Court Of The Crimson King

Forgive my sins father I will always obey your wish is my command

whatever you say I will never betray you I will cooperate

in the end you must save me before it is too late

In the court of crimson king the key will let me in]

Seven years of wisdom and seven years of pain seven keys to kingdom

and seven gates to hell my soul is leaving for the astral sky

I'm going through some chances I am paralysed

Before the king of twilight in for the crimson court I am a part of the order

I am reborn what a pleasure to be here what a pleasure to die

whole my body moulding I am still alive

8. Sorrow Calls

In the chilly mist I stand petrified by her eyes dark but blazing eyes of

endless night her velvet veil in silver grey shining through glistening tears

and while the colours fade around her I can feel her sorrow

She can feel no happiness as she feeds the night and she cries for all the ones

she loved in life so alone she weaps the dying there is nothing she can do

just guide us to the dark and lonely skies

She is the end the stars will fall eternal night her sorrow calls

In the chilly mist I stand petrified by her eyes dark but blazing eyes

bereaved the light she is the key to the other world and to the endless night

and her veil embrace my soul combined we fly away

She is the end...

She's for real no mirage the incarnated night

her sorrow calls I must follow and leave this life

What is life, what is death just a state of being

nothing matters anymore I must follow her call

9. Where Insanity Rules

Do they listen to what you say do you care about decisions they make

do you want them to rule the game they decide and you have to obey

They rule the world but in fact they are insane what's going on in their

empty brains their conclusions and philosophy does it really bother me

It's a political chaos where insanity rules

What the fuck do they know about the reality show

can they see anything at all from behind those walls

They make the rules for you to follow what's going on in their empty brains

prohibitions and depreciations does it really bother me

It's a political chaos...

They live like kings with diamond rings

I weep the poor with their broken dreams

I can't believe that it's for real their life of ease is something

that I can't feel all the money they make on their political mistakes

They make the rules for you to follow what's going on in their empty brains

they make it worse for the common beings and that really bothers me

It's a political chaos...

10. Shadows Of God

Transcended angels with dark blasphemous names shadows of god

beneath the altar of christ they appear with wings broken and burned

Free from heaven and bound to earth they are trapped and framed by the lies

that god is good and that they are bringers of sins and heretic lies

These masters guide the way through death reborn

scaling vrath to all of those who scorn

A burning stake for god and corruption

they have come to take the abandoned of earth

Who is the keeper of light the father of hell or god what is the truth

who can say where the shadow will fall it depends on where you stand

These masters guide the way...

Mankind fettered on earth we envy the birds in the sky that can fly

but we are the fallen with wings that were lost in time but soon be found

These masters guide the way...

11. Gilgad (The Sanctified)

Gil-gad was an elven king of him the happens sadly sing

the last whose realm was fair and free between the mountains and the sea

His sword was long his lance was keen his shining helm afar was seen

the countless stars of heaven's field were mirrored in his silver shield

But long ago he rode away and where he dwelleth none can say

for into darkness fell his star in mordor where the shadows are

1. Rooms Of Sleep

Dreaming - hagridden through my fear

By the circe of awakening

Stranger - take away the dark and

Save me from insanity

In this place unknown

They seek for souls

From the shadow zone

They're crawling into rooms of sleep

Creatures - are haunting my domains

Seeds of hell in my paradise

Screaming - dreaming that I dream

That I'm awake in this evil dwell

I am awake but I only dream

That I'm awake in the dream within

In a place unknown

They seek for souls

Hear the demons call

When they're crawling into rooms of sleep

Into rooms of sleep

Drowning - in my bed of pain

Falling deeper and deeper down

Stranger - take away the dark and

Wake me up from insanity

I am awake but I only dream

That I'm awake in the dream within

In a place unknown

They seek for souls

Hear the demons call

When they're crawling into rooms of sleep

Into rooms of sleep

2. What Am I

In the darkness I see her shadow

As a lonely sad silhouette

I'm remorseful but my pride still

Is too strong to accept my regrets

I sit in silence crouched in a corner

I hear the hollow ticking of the clock

My mind is chasing thoughts that are fleeing

Oh god of mercy! Do I know what I have done

I rest my head in hands that tremble

I'm repressing thoughts of what I am

I am scared of the power of my feelings

I can't bear the burden of the deeds

I can't trust the nature of my being

Cause my hate is fiery and profound

Each passing minute feels like an eon

Time seems unreal in the presence of death

I'm spinning deeper into my madness

Clinging on to traces of hope

I rest my head in hands that are shaking

I'm denying the facts of what I am

I close my eyes but the scene I'm seeing

Keep's repeating again and again

I can't leash the fury I'm feeling

I cannot break the circle of my rage

I can't trust the nature of my being

'Cos my hate is fiery and profound

3. Alley Of Oaks

Let's take a walk a sunny day

And find those hidden roads

Which goes to secret places

And to magic nooks

Can you hear the whisperings

From the trees

They're fortelling memories

Creatures you've never seen catch

The gossip from the sizzling leaves

When we walk the alley of the oaks

To where those diffuse shadows loom

Underneath that mound of stone

There lives the beings of your denial

Shadows, luring eyes behind trees and

boulders, oh world of wonders

Can you see, can you see them

They are here closer than you

Wanted them to ever come to you

But it's for real not a fairy-tale

When we walk the alley of the oaks

To where those diffuse shadows loom

Was there something behind me?

What did move over there?

Hear voices and laughter

It's something else here!

4. Soldiers Of The Holy Empire

Look into the dragons eyes

In the mist of dark forgotten times

Summon up the beast of flame

Unchain the warlord call its name

Children of the sun

Let him reign the chosen one

And save you from the night

In which you fear to die

The dragon rule with iron hand

Through blood - he'll reposses the land

From the dungeon to the throne

From the darkness freedom has been born

Soldiers of the sun

Let him rule the chosen one

And save you from the night

In which you fear to die

Soldiers of the holy empire

Hail the dynasty - the dragons eyes forsees victory

Soldiers of the holy empire

Hail the dynasty - make the enemy crawl

Soldiers of the sun

Let him rule the raging one

Into dawning light

The time of fear will die

Soldiers of the holy empire

Hail the dynasty - the dragons eyes forsees victory

Soldiers of the holy empire

Hail the dynasty - make the enemy crawl

5. Paradise Lost

I am the lord of the fallen

The ultimate rebel from paradise

A philosopher free thinking breed

The sovereign of anarchy

Legionaries of every tribe

This is where we dwell

A place of eternal dusk

We are the dignitaries of hell

Here we shall rule

Even though it isn't hell

I will retake

My lost paradise

Into the garden of Eden

As a serpent I come to tempt

I offer you to taste the fruit

From the tree of knowledge

I make you a demigod

I give you my thoughts

I want to make sure that you will be

A rebellion to the trinity

Here we shall rule

Even though it isn't hell

I will retake

My lost paradise

Fallen into the abyss of fire

Fallen into the abyss of fire

6. Nowhere Island

I miss the evenings the small talk that we had

I miss your presence the good things and the bad

I smell the morning air the colours of the dawn

Things that matter now when it's out of reach

All the things I took for granted

I do now esteem

Every thing that I neglected

I wish to redeem

In this silence on nowhere island

I can see the life I had passing by

In the place of dying I'm weeping crying

Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies

In this nowhere I'm looking back on life

What was my vision in life before I died - I know

That this place of emptiness a castody for souls

Will not bring me back no one hear my calls

All the things I took for granted

I don now esteem

Every thing that I neglected

I wish to redeem

In this silence on nowhere island

I can see the life I had passing by

In the place of dying I'm weeping crying

Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies

My destination the cold eternity

I will forever roam through infinity

And I am doomed to silence in this astral skies

I want to be again I wish I were alive

All the things I took for granted

I do now esteem

Every thing that I neglected

I wish to redeem

In this silence on nowhere island

I can see the life I had passing by

In the place of dying I'm weeping crying

Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies

7. The Mirror

What's beyond the chamber mirror

The evening coloured secret window

Is there just an inverted picture of

This room's reality

I have witnessed tiny little changes

Within that darkened reflected room

Things have altered seemingly in wrongful

Places of false dimensions

Hypnotised my soul is waiting

Horrified my senses fading

The mirror stares into my soul

Suspiciously I'm moving closer

And I wave my hand before me

In disbelief I watch the image of myself

Yet standing still

I'm staring deep into my eyes

Touch the mirror while I wonder why

In that moment my reflection grabs my arm

And pulls me through

To a room that is reversed

My common sense I feel it burst

The mirror takes what god forsakes

The mirror

Screaming - in silence

Staring out from the mirror

Reality - fades away

And I am locked beyond the mirror

Shadows - near me

Whisperings that scare me

Help me - take me out

Crush the mirror of despair

The mirror

8. State Of Intoxication

You're nude just screwed

Your dick is in pain but you're in a good mood

With nothing in mind almost blind

Your pecker's a mess but you do feel fine

You're gucked you're sucked you've fucked

You're glued to the sheets like a piece of rock?

White stains on her behind

Fruits of the labour of the bump and grind

State of intoxication

I'm flying high on love

Make love no way

It's a physical act with no foreplay

Doin' the deeds that your boner needs

Drain your balls into the pussy you feed

You sweat you howl you growl

Fornicate her with your heart and soul

Dirty deeds done dirty sheets

A combination of sticky and sweet

State of intoxication

I'm flying high on love

Romance no chance

Extacy is like a woodoo dance

A fuck is an act not a shameful crime

It has been done since the dawn of time

What do we do? We screw!

Armadillos are doin' it too

A matter of course our source

Nature is an unstoppable force

State of intoxication

I'm flying high on love

9. Cold World

What a cold world we rule

Preparing for war to keep the peace intact

White lies, politics and dirt

Thrown in our eyes

And where do we stand

And what are we thinking of

When so much is wrong

Why do we not care

Segregation and hate

Opinions and words of the fools who seek to rule

Shaved heads, lunatics with flags

Marching the streets

Oh, where are we now

And what are we going to

Is the world so insane

Are we doomed to lose

I will speak my mind if I so want to

This cold world sucks have we all gone crazy

When religion decays

Bullshit will save the faith, praise the lord

Brainwash, talk in tounges to god

Who'll never appear

Where will we be

And what will the future hold

We're listening to fools

And play by their rules

I will speak my mind if I so want to

This cold world sucks have we all gone crazy

10. Lord Of The Rings

Three rings for the elven-kings under the sky,

Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,

Nine for the mortal men doomed to die,

One for the dark lord on his dark throne

In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie

One ring to rule them all one ring to find them

One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie"

The lord of the rings

The one of them all

The lord of the rings

Gets into your soul

Three rings in the elven-land defying the dark

The dwarf-lords have lost their rings three have been found

By the mortal men now bearing Sauron's mark

The war of the ring begins on evil ground

In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie

One ring to rule them all one ring to find them

One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the land of the dark lord where freedom dies

The lord of the rings

he one of them all

The lord of the rings

Gets into your soul

11. Last Rites

He lies awake with his eyes closed

As he thinks of eternity

The last meal served on silver plates

Left a taste of cold steel

His memories haunt him

Though what's past is so far away

He's drowning in fear of death

But does anyone give a damned

First light of the morning

Will witness his fall

At the end of a rope he'll hang

Feeding the crows

As he walks to the gallows pole

The priest reads his last rites

Twelve feet to the ground

Then there's just six more to god

First light of the morning

Will witness his fall

At the end of a rope he'll hang

Feeding the crows

From the end of the gallow

To the land of the dead

He has joined with the hallowed

In the land of the dead

From the end of the gallow

To the land of the dead

He has joined with the hallowed

In the land of the dead

From the end of the gallow

To the land of the dead

He has joined with the hallowed

In the land of the dead

12. Dying Evolution

In this time of desolation

In this time of apathy

In the age of desperation

We're dying to be free

I will live in hell until I die

I will crawl this earth of dust and fire

My dying expectations

My dying will to live

The plague of radiation

I have no more to give

I will live in hell until I die

I will crawl this earth of dust and fire

This barren desolated place

Where evolution dies in disgrace

Dying evolution

We hailed the war

That devastated earth

We're now before a

Dying evolution

In this time of desolation

In this time of apathy

In the age of desparation

We're dying to be free

I will live in hell until I die

I will crawl this earth of dust and fire

This barren desolated place

Where evolution dies in disgrace

Dying evolution

We hailed the war

That devastated earth

We're now before a

Dying evolution

13. The Secret Doctrine

In the secret doctrine I have read,

From the creation and its manifoldness has sprung

And that the hord of evil is not dead

And that armageddon already has begun

About forgotten places I have read,

And secret paths to heaven and hell

Names of angels, life and death

All that is mentioned clear and well,

In the secret doctrine of heaven and hell

10. Knowing Just As I

1. Enter The Oblivion

Cross the sea of souls

On a ship of mist

Towards a shining glow

You are leaving you

As every man shall do

So while your body dies

You reach the thousand skies

Enter oblivion

Your mortal time is done

Unlink your gemini

To become one with thy

A far but closing chime

Into the light divine

Dead to be born beyond

You will forever roam

You sail away...

Have they no shame at all

They weren't no friends of yours

Their regrets in vain

They had their chance before

But now that you are gone

Remembering what they've done

And what they didn't do

The tears are too late for you

You sail away...

So do you even care

When you're dead who's there

You are too far away

To hear them anyway

Death comes to everyone

To make sure his will be done

But before you die

Remember, say goodbye

Then sail away... Sail away.

2. Red Moon

The battle's lost

The army scattered in destruction

The king is dead

He drove his sword into a stone

A land without a king

Who'll be the one to follow?

No one managed

No man worthy of the throne

Break the spell, you son of a king

Excalibur awaits you

Rule our land, guide us the way

Give us back the glory we once had

In his court of Camelot

The knights of the round table

To lead the Britains

Is his life and prophecy

Deceived by Morgana Lefay

His bastard sister

Berawed, was left the nation

Of sorrow and of plague

He's the eyes of the war

He's the force of the law

Magician absolute

He's the eyes, he's the ears

Knowing lies and your fears

The sorcerer supreme

He's the eyes of the war

He's the force of the law

Magician absolute

He's the eyes, he's the ears

Knowing lies and your fears

The sorcerer supreme

Must solve the quest of time

The grail is the salvation

Saved from evil and

Abandoned to be found

Hail the king

Heed the dragon's fire

Called up with anger

From the deepest agony

Break the spell, you son of a king

Excalibur awaits you

Rule our land, guide us the way

Give us back the glory we once had

3. Salute The Sage

Dark eyes staring through crystal

Wild laughs, demons of wisdom

Recall all the heretics of the dawn

Cry out the names of the angels

Spell god as in the beginning

Profane is the devil's grimoire

Salute the sage, he's the last in line

He sin too, well but so do I

He's in all, he's you and me

He is the king of infinity

Rise up, enter my shadow

Siege me, make me eternal

Save me, give me that piece of harmony

Pure me, sermon by fire

Burn up, envious liar

Black skies will darken

The world forever more

In a world of mystery

He shall rule, yes you shall see

He's in all, he's in you and me

He is the king of infinity

Dark angel of sin

He's calling to bring

Dark angel of sin

He's calling to bring

Preach me the sefer Jezirah

Dark years, Fata Morgana

Black tears falling for the Antichrist

Rise up, enter my shadow

Dark eyes, demons of wisdom

Black skies will darken

The world forever more

Salute the sage, he's the last in line

He sin too, well but so do I

He's in all, he's in you and me

He is the king of infinity

Dark angel of sin

He's calling to bring

4. Rumours Of Rain

We are the elder of a race

We are sent to see we are one

And I am them all

We are neither black nor white

I am a paler shade of eternity and what

You can see

From the depths of humanity

You have let it loose

The tide of destiny

As I search for the holy one

Your life is running out of time

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water so sustained

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water in her veins

I'm making circles in the sand

With magic herbs I forfill

These pentagrams

Among the living I have searched

I can't find the truth

That's why I'm calling you

Deat father time, do not deny this call

As Lemuria, the Earth will fall

Veil the legacy of sinister

And all the evil that man do

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water so sustained

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water in her veins

Black dust of evil wars

Bloodsheds and broken laws

Blue skies are turning grey

Nuclear and gamma rays

There's a tomb for everyone

And for the deeds that you have don

I hold the keys to paradise

You hold the keys to sin and lies

I can't deny that we have laughed

At your society, power games

And technology

You fool of man, you inquire into things

You're not supposed to know

You don't know where the limit goes

From the depths of humanity

You have let it loose

The ride of destiny

As I search for the holy one

Your life is running out of time

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water so sustained

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring wated in her veins

The darkest places

Are not paradise

I am the shadow

I am the depths of your soul

The tribes of earth have died

By the wave - the mighty tide

I have walked tomorrow's path

There I saw the shame of the past

There's a tomb for everyone

And for the deeds that you have done

But every sin and every crime

Shall be forgiven by the river of time

We have to go back to where we belong

Poor Mother Earth

We've been here far too long

We are flying back to paradise

On our wings of destiny

To a place where sorrow dies

From the depths of humanity

You have let it loose

The tide of destiny

As I search for the holy one

Your life is running out of time

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water so sustained

There's a rumour of rain

Pouring water in her veins

5. Excalibur

The battle's lost

The army scattered in destruction

He drove his sword into a stone

A land without a king

6. Modern Devil

I'm rumbling down that street of mine

There is no sun, but my car still shine

I'm burning rubber on that road

With my four-wheel drive

With explosive load

Born to drive, drive to die

Die to live, then drive again

I know that for me there ain't no grave

Because I am the death in a black beret

Horny girls, they wanna ride

So I take them in and fuck their pride

Razamanaz, I feel so alive

In my satanic turbo four wheel drive

Born to drive, drive to die

Die to live, then drive again

I know that for me there ain't no grave

Because I am the death in a black beret

I'm rumbling down that street of mine

There is no sun, but my car still shine

I'm burning rubber on that road

With my four-wheel drive

With explosive load

Born to drive, drive to die

Die to live, then drive again

I know that for me there ain't no grave

Because I am the death in a black beret

7. Wonderland

Have I seen all there is to see?

Or is there more left to be?

The deepest of thoughts

The fantasies, the neverending

Harmonies

Here I am, locked in reality

In a world of anxiety

I have to escape

Explore the possibilities

Can dreams become true?

On a unicorn I am riding

To the wonderland

I'll hold her silver mane, face a dream

I wonder if I will return

From my journey to the wonderland

Far away, deep within universe

Through the arcades of mystery

The dullness is gone

My mind collecting pieces

Of a life I will live

On a unicorn I am riding

To the wonderland

Me they will rehabilitate with

A strait-jacket on

They wonder if I will return

From my journey in the wonderland

They are searching, but they can't find

I am hiding inside my mind

Can you keep a secret? I'm not me

I am forever in my fantasy

On a unicorn I am riding

To the wonderland

I'll hold her silver mane, face a dream

I wonder if I will return

From my journey to the wonderland

Wonderland, wonderland

Take me to that neverland

Wonderland

8. Razamanaz

[Nazareth Cover]

We’ve got to get it together

You bring the wine, we’ll bring the weather

We haven’t come to be clever

Let’s make it now cause this could be never

Were gonna Razamataz ya tonight

Were gonna razamanaz ya all night

Razamataz razamanaz up on your feet

Let’s see ya dance, dance, dance

Now that we’ve come to a showdown

We won’t allow you a second to slow down

The moment has come to deliver

You as the taker, and we as the giver

Were gonna Razamataz ya tonight

Were gonna razamanaz ya all night

Razamataz razamanaz up on your feet

Let’s see ya dance, dance, dance

All of the world loves a raver

We’re playin for ravers who savor the flavor

You all appear calm and collected

Razamanazin’ you never expected

Were gonna Razamataz ya tonight

Were gonna razamanaz ya all night

Razamataz razamanaz up on your feet

Let’s see ya dance, dance, dance

Were gonna Razamataz ya tonight

Were gonna razamanaz ya all night

Razamataz razamanaz up on your feet

Let’s see ya dance, dance, dance

9. The Battle Of Evermore

The wise man and the vagabond

Walking on a mission

Searching for an answer

Looking for a sign

See, the seven seals have been broken

And the world has taken end

Manifestation on the horizon

The battle has begun

Angels fighting angels

Heaven is painted red

A crimson rain is falling

Down on the earth

That we have lent

Battle of Evermore

This is war

The battle of Evermore

Of Evermore

This is war

The battle of Evermore

The battle of Evermore

The battle of Evermore

The battle of Evermore

10. Knowing Just As I

A small pain

A little pain

A big pain

A great pain

Growing here

Growing there

Growing slowly everywhere

The creature chants

While the spirits rise

While a dead man lives, a living man dies

Growing here

Growing there

Growing slowly everywhere

Choke, choke, choke

Devils we awoke

Thirst, thirst, thirst

Suffer until you burst

Cry, cry, cry

Fire burn your eye

Die, die, die

Knowing just as I
