Hallowed Be Thy Name
I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time
'cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the gallows pole
The sands of time for me are running low
When the priest comes to read me the Last Rites
I take a look through the bars at the last sights
At a world that has gone very wrong for me
Can it be there's some sort of error?
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end not some crazy dream?
Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not so easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears fall but why am I crying?
After all I am not afraid of dying
Don't wanna believe that there never is an end
As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Somebody cries from a cell "God be with you"
If there's a God, why has he let me go?
As I walk all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my soul; it's willing to fly away
Mark my words believe my soul lives
on don't worry now that I have
gone I've gone beyond to see the truth
When you know that your time is close at
hand maybe then you'll begin to under
stand life down there is just a strange illusion
Hallowed be thy name...

The Haunting
Merely the sound of your voice
Made me believe that that you were her
Just like the river disturbs
My inner peace
Once I believed I could find
Just a trace of her beloved soul
Once I believed she was all
Then she smothered my believes
One cold winter's night
I may follow her voice to the river
Leave me for now and forever
Leave what you can
Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth
Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend
You've fallen deep
I was a liar in every debate
I drew the forces that fueled your hate
When the cold in my heart leaves, it comes to an end
Quietly now go to sleep
How could that first time recur
When memories linger on and on
What made me think you were her
Helena is dead to all
dead to all
Nothing can bring her to life
Don't pretend that I'll be loving you
Once I believed she was gone
I corrupted from within
Leave leave me for now and forever
Leave what you can
Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth
Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend
You've fallen deep
I was a liar in every debate
I drew the forces that fueled your hate
When the cold in my heart leaves, it comes to an end
Quietly now go to sleep
(roy:)
Follow me into the light
(simone:)
Like ice on a lake of tears
I'll take you through
(roy:)
Or leave me tonight
(roy:)
I've gone too far to begin all anew
(simone:)
Life fades in anew
(both:)
With someone like you
Somewhere in time I will find you and love you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth
Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend
You've fallen deep
I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fueled your hate
When the cold in my heart leaves, it comes to an end
Quietly I'll go to sleep

Elizabeth
(Part I Mirror, Mirror)
Mirror can you tell me
how to stay forever young?
Let me know the secret
I will hold my twisted tongue
Please protect my beauty
Velvet skin so pure and white
Hear my name resounding
like a hymn at dead of night
Once I struck a servant
she's a virgin; free from sin
Drops of blood caressed me
and refined my aging skin
Could this be the answer
uncorrupted, carmine red?
Voices keep resounding
in my dazed bewildered head
Have I found myself eternity?
Someone has heard my prayers
Now I'll become divine
Have I found myself divinity
I'm no longer a slave
to the vicious hands of time
(Part II Requiem For The Innocent)
Mother, can you hold me
one more time again?
Whisper "I still love you" in my ear
Mother, did you lie?
Would you tell me why?
There is something deeper that I fear
Justify the malice I portray
Daggers in the darkness find your way
When the moon is full and piercing bright
Drench me with your innocence tonight
Don't you want to die?
Walk beside me evermore
Don't you feel alive
like you've never felt before?
Visions of the future
unprofound and blurred
I have passed the point of no return
Justify the malice I portray
Let me keep my beauty one more day
When the moon is full and piercing bright
Drench me with your innocence tonight
Don't you want to die?
Walk beside me evermore
Don't you feel alive
like you've never felt before?
Don't you want to die?
Souls transcending, silver shine
Don't you feel alive?
Your blood preserves my place in time
(Part III Fall From Grace)
Breathe in deep
Smell these halls of hate
Carve your name into these walls
before it is too late
Cold and twisted
they resisted
What was I to do?
All I ever wanted was
a fraction of the truth
Walking in the shadows
of my blackened mind
Lost inside this shallow
vanity of time
What if there's a God a Hell and Heaven?
Fire is the torment I must face
Dying by the souls I have forsaken
no one's going to catch my fall from grace
bleed on me
Watch me from your cage
as I rejoin my painful prime
suffer and exhale
You and I are relics
we provoke and we recline
Walking in the shadows
of my blackened mind
Angels crave my sorrow
sorrow they will find
wWhat if there's a God a Hell and Heaven?
Fire is the torment I must face
Dying by the souls I have forsaken
no one's going to catch my fall from grace
Walking in the shadows
of my blackened mind
Angels crave my sorrow
sorrow they will find

Gloomy Shadows
I watch you when you're sleeping,
I softly touch your skin.
I can't believe that you are here with me,
I never let you go.
Everything feels so unreal,
so perfect and so new.
You promised me that you won't hurt me,
why can't I believe?
Tell me why I feel uncertain
and put my trust in you.
I'm hiding behind the wall of doubts,
unable to break free.
Nothing good will last forever,
another broken dream.
I'm to weak to change the future,
even if you're here with me.
Another dream will turn to dust,
I cannot change my destiny.
I am damned to fight alone,
against these gloomy shadows.
I'm diving in this bloody ocean,
I'm surrounded by my fear.
No light will ever touch me,
in this world of agony.
Tell me why you feel uncertain,
won't you trust in me?
You're hiding behind the wall of doubts,
but I can set you free.
This pain won't last forever,
I know this is our dream.
Together we can change the future,
as long as you are here with me.
Another dream will turn to dust,
I cannot change my destiny.
I am damned to fight alone,
against these gloomy shadows.
I'm diving in this bloody ocean,
I'm surrounded by my fear.
No light will ever touch me,
in this world of agony.
Don't be afraid, this is our future.
Trust me when I say, we will be, together.
I will always guide your lead.
Another dream will turn to dust,
I cannot change my destiny.
I am damned to fight alone,
against these gloomy shadows.
I'm diving in this bloody ocean,
I'm surrounded by my fear.
No light will ever touch me,
in this world of agony.
Another dream will turn to dust,
I cannot change my destiny.
I am damned to fight alone,
against these gloomy shadows.

Egypt (The Chains are On)
In the land of the lost horizon
And where the Queen lies dark and cold
When the stars won't shine, then the story's told
When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
Then the strange ones came and the people knew
That the chains were on
That the chains were on
My, my, my
In the land of no tomorrow
Where you pray just to end each day
And your life just slowly melts away
Each day you hear the sand as it moves and whispers
Come and sail on my golden sea
Maybe one day you'll be just like me...and that's free
But still your chains are on
Yes your chains are on
Still your chains are on
You've seen them walking on the water
You've seen flying through the sky
They were frightening in the darkness
They had rainbows in their eyes
Yeah!
When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
The the strange ones came and the people knew
Yeah, that the chains are on
That the chains were on
That the chains were on
That the chains were on
Oh my the chains were on
In the land of the lost horizon
Where the chains are on
In the land of milk and honey
Still the chains are on
Where the Queen lies dark, and lonely
Still her chains are on
And the world was new and magic
But the chains are on
Hey the chains were on
Oh, the chains were on
Yeah the chains were on
Oh, the chains were on
Hey the chains were on
See them walkin' on the water
Oh the chains were on
See them flyin' through the sky
My the chains were on
They frightening in the darkness
Yes the chains were on
They had rainbows in their eyes
Hey the chains were on

I Want Out
I want out!
Sever the chain of fate
I want out!
It's sad, isn't it? Gazing at the city in ruins
It flows today as well, within your repetition
I go forward only because
Unseen hands push me
I can't ever realize the blueness of the sky
I want out!
Sever the chain
I want out!
Take this world of lies
Turn it upside down
And with my own hands grasp the future
I want out!
The flow of blood remains the same over time
I felt I had to go along with the plan
I only go where I am sent
The VISION of a smile, an icy ILLUSION
Your eyes whisper your secret prayer
I want out!
Triumphantly we will end the tragedy of tomorrow
I want out!
I want to protect those I love
Even if I am struck to the grave
The light of truth shows all
I want out!
I want out!
Sever the chain
I want out!
Take this world of lies
Turn it around
And with my own hands grasp the future
I want out! I want out!
