1. Overture
2. Bleeding Heart
I saw what happened close by.
Everybody saw, but nobody was
about to react.
We turned a blind eye to this cruel slaughter.
My soul is crying, is yearning for vengeance.
For murdered children, for raped women,
For tormented and executed men.
Why were they doning it,
Why were they killing like animals?
Lord, why did nobody stop them?
My heart bleeding, I pray for peace on our
EARTH
My soul is crying, is yearning for vengence.
For murdered children, for raped women,
For tormented and executed men.
I saw what happened close by.
Everybody saw, but nobody was
about to react
We turned a blind eye to this cruel slaughter.
I know that when the GATES of HELL,
Which I saw close by, will open,
There will be nobody to help us.
3. Land of Dreams
The night is coming down, the sky is omnious.
The sun sank down below the horizon,
Gloomy darkness is wrapping the world,
In the moonlight among shadows,
You are leaving for the land of dreams
Suddenly you're opening your eyes
And you don't know if you slept or not.
It's so dark that you don't know,
For sure if your eyes are open,
After a while a sound is reaching you,
It's a woman's voice,
The voice is so clear and strangely dismal,
The words are fading in the air.
You feel the approaching death that's slowly
Embracing your body.
You look around and that
It's still dark everywhere
It's so dark thar you don't know,
For sure if your eyes are open,
After a while a sound is reaching you,
It's a woman's voice,
The voice is so clear and strangely dismal,
The words are fading in the air.
4. The Anthem of Victory
She runs in circles, talks in tongues
Said burn your Docs
Throw out your Cosom, Your Details, Your Vogue
She hate fashion hypocrites
And the puppets that spew forth
She hates people who hate, but she hates to hate
'Cause she hates negativity
She's sick of being tired and tired of being sick
She smells like dope, my God she tastes like cinnamon
I'm in love, your so fucked up I think I love you
She told me that she was born at Woodstock
I told her that I had never been there
But I saw the movie once
I stayed up late, it was on TV
She who played all of Tommy
And Jimi's Star Spangled Banner
But Kiss didn't play, so I didn't really give a...
I tried to say I'd be her bimbo
If she could fit me in
But I just mumbled something incoherent
Like
I know that she knows
She could take me for a ride
She said that I said
She could take me for a ride
5. Temple of Love
With the fire from the fire works up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
You run for the cover in the temple of love
You run for another but still the same
For the wind will blow my name across this land
In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on
Walls as wide as lovers eyes
In the temple of love - shine like thunder
In the temple of love - cry like rain
In the temple of love - hear my calling
In the temple of love - hear my name
And the devil in the black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away
With the sunlight died and the night above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside
You run for the cover in the temple of love
You run for another, it's all the same
For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside
With the fire from the fire works up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
I shine like thunder, cry like rain
And the temple of love grows old and strong
But the wind blows stronger, cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before this
Black wind calls my name, to you no more
In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on
Walls as wide as lovers eyes
In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on
Walls as wide as lovers eyes
In the black sky thunder sweeping under
Ground and over water, sounds of crying,
Weeping will not save your
Faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave when
Stone is dust and only air remains
6. Collapse
The storm is approaching, infernal darkness,
Covered the sun and the night fell.
The Lord of hideous monsters got the mortal,
Grips with the king of light.
Two minds and two bodies clashed with
Each other: Hell and heaven.
Rule, power, axe - it was the picture of my king.
He gave us faith in life,
They showed us how to fight with evil.
Now he's gone.
I'm anxious about my life.
I'm anxious about our future.
That's the end. Collapse. Ruin all around.
I'm dazzied by the blaze of fire.
I see the exhaustion of my king slaying,
The lord of shadows. They die together.
Their bodies get smashed against the rocks.
Bloody mortal remains of my kings are crying for vengeance.
There's nobody to take revenge.
Rule, power, axe - it was the picture of my king.
He gave us faith in life,
They shower us how to fight with evil.
Now he's gone.
I'm anxious about my life
I'm anxious about our future.
7. The Lord
I'm the king, I was once a rover, outlaw, sailor and slave
Now my time has come and I'm the LORD.
Sword and axe cleared my path to the throne,
From which I'm lokking now at the rest,
Realms of my land, it's not a dream!
Sword, power, rule - that's my sign
My life is the struggle for better times.
The struggle that will send the powers,
Of evil to their doom.
I'm stumbling now along the thorny path of power.
I look at my subjects, who conspire to release,
Themselves from under my foot.
I'm not afraid, I know that my power,
And sharp sword don't let the thirst for revenge to emerge.
Only mighty soeves lurkin' in the mountains,
Arose my anxiety.
Sword, power, rule - that's my sign.
My life is the struggle for better times.
The struggle that will send the powers,
Of evil to their doom.
Many years of quiet and wise reign had passed,
Before the time for the meeting of two forces come.
The Lord and his faithful soldiers,
made a stand against the immortal enemy.
King of Darkness come from murky,
Abyss of hell to defeat the mankind with,
Fire and Magic.
8. Birth
You saw the world that we had created before
Your birth
Is thete any chance for you to grow up in it,
In love and peace?
No, because I Know that all attempts to
Change hatred into love, sadness in joy,
Had already gone long time ago into
The dismal abyss of hell
I wish only to save you, the helpless being,
By covering your eyes with my still untouched soul.
Born in the ravages of wars,
In times of hatred and pain.
Now you are doomed to struggle,
That I keep on losing.
Maybe once the time will come when,
The awaken will enjoy peace and love.
This is your chance, you can achive it.
Your pure soul will help you in this fight,
With the wraped humanity that ravages everything.
Your pure heart will protect you
against the vile.
Whispers of this world's monsters.
You can be the king of the underfield land.
9. The Night
I'm quietly crying,
Nobody can see my tears,
Nobody can hear my sobs.
The night protects me from people's eyes,
The night is my only ally.
It silently listens to my complains,
And carefully wraps me up in its dark cloak,
It won't betray me.
The wind whispers words of comfort,
And delicately strokes my hair,
The rain cools my feverished body,
And streams down my face,
Washing tears off it,
And consoling me.
The night protects me from people's eyes,
The night is my only ally.
It silently listens to my complaints,
And carefully wraps me up in its dark cloak,
It won't betray me.
The night protects me from people's eyes,
The night is my only ally.
It silently listens to my complaints,
And carefully wraps me up in its dark cloak,
It won't betray me.
