shadow like london's vice is creeping through
the night
protected ? by night and fog
covered ? in defiance of law and order
from new england came a quack to find his
victims
devilish ? sly in his mind
no clue will bring explanation, no
suspicion
scotland yard gropes in the dark
1) "i keep on hearing that the police will catch
me soon
i have laught about that they seem to look so
clever
they say I'm a doctor now
have you seen the devil with his
scalpel?"
2) "i love my work and want to start
again
you will soon hear of me and my funny little
games
the next job I'll do ? I shall put the ladys
ears of and
send it to the police officers just for joy
catch me if
you can ? GOOD LUCK...!"
Who will be able stop the devils
game...?
Who will be able stop the devils
game...?
Who will be able stop the devils
game...?
Who will be able stop the devils
game...?
2. Visionary Eyes
2. Visionary Eyes
when comes the time
where a new age begins
and where religions are
meaningless?
when comes the time
where we live in harmony with mother
earth?
a man from salon
known as michel de
notredame
had visions even in his
childhood
the course of history was known
to him
but he couldn`t tell it
anyone
the lord of lilly won`t
trust him
in a gilded cage he will die
soon
but he didn`t wanted to know about
this thread
and so fate was
fulfiled
in a cruel way
see how the old sun
falls
use the time and solve the
mystery
will rule eternal
darkness
or will rise a new sun?
Those which we`ve lost 2000 years
ago?
coded hidden burned and
misunderstood
3. The Guardians Awake
3. The Guardians Awake
hathor and anubis have
awaked
their cold breath is
spreading
in the valley of kings a
slight breath
of disquiet the death is
near
a glaem of light falls in the
darkness
who dares to distrub the peace of the
godlike king?
eyes which hardly accustomed to the
darkness
see what for thousands years only could be
seen by ra's eyes
they desecrate the peace of
tut-ench-amun
blinded by gold and precious
stones
and only concerned about their
own glory
no-one observes the inscription on
the wall
that promises misfortune
for those who despise amon-ré and
his son...!
hathor and anubis have
awaked
their cold breath is
spreading
in the valley of kings a
slight
breath of disquiet the death
is near
the lord of the sun don't know any
mercy...!
4. Where The Clouds...
4. Where The Clouds...
A scientist drifts in his boat the
silent river down
He follows the waters
current
(The flow which defrauds him...)
The monotony of whistling
chuckling
and singing Voices is tiring
out of man
And suddenly - a rolling
thunder
First still in distance but soon a
increasing loudness
thunder - Like from a storm of
nature
breaks the still around, still
around...!
closer and closer comes the
risk....
Now return or approach to the
shores
It's urgent - the time runs
against him
Where the rainbow raises in the
unknown....
Where a river flows into the
lowlands....
Where the water darts in steep bows into
the deep....
Where gigantic veils of thigt
haze rise....
And the elements build a
unit!
On this place there are living
the gods,
and there the clouds will be born
in water....!
5. St. Bartholomew
5. St. Bartholomew
A young aristocrat came to
Paris
To marriage Margot the King`s
Sister
(But his Religion wasn't the religion
of the Valois)
This wedding meant new hope
After too many wars
Which didn't gave this land any
peace
Thousands came to the
capital
To celebrate this wedding of
peace
Thousands didn't knew their
destiny
They only came to die
Which is the true
religion?
One nation devided
A wedding should bring peace between
the religions
But the night of St.
Bartholomew
Destroyed every hope
Une mort terrible au nom du même
dieu
6. 1793
6. 1793
a diary, cased in old
leather

life
and filled the empty pages with
his lifework

healer
and his ownership of
property

mother

everything

loved

remained
faithful and according to his
theory
he created a new life
death isn't the end
i can reanimate those i once
loved
7. Road Of Victory
7. Road Of Victory
Legendary and fairytale
Appeared Mesapotamia to the
greek
so he advanced with his
army
Into the unknown
The disciple of the great
Aristoteles
Reached the end of the
would
Conquest and exploratory
urge
After eight years ? the
destination
My lord...! He gained all
Asia
He wanted to proclaim the hellenic
empire
The Greek united his army
Babylon should be the
capital
But it was never
realized
He died by disease and left
this world
The Macedonian ordered his
nation
To discover and conquest
To march along into the
distance
They devoted themselve to their
fate
And marched along into the
distance
8. High Hopes (Pink Floyd cover)
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before times took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
When friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever
KID: {gurbling) Hi. MAN: Is that Charlie? KID: Yes
MAN: Hello, Charlie. (Kid hangs up) MAN: Great. (Man hangs up)
