1. Ressurection
By the Holy Resurrection
and by the torments of damnation
I raise you and I command thy
Ghost of the deceased, to answer my call
and to follow these holy ceremonies
that thy will not be distressed by eternal torture
Praise, Praise
So I demand, so I command thy.
2. Over The Worst
You are over the worst
Silence all around
Your dreams are shattered
Like the glass in your mouth
You are over the worst
It's without any importance
What the people say
As you ran away from here
You were alone on your way
You are over the worst
After your lonely fight
You don't know what's left or right
But come on, come on, come on
For a hope it's too late
You are over the worst...
3. Dead Can Wait
Mourn for existing, waiting for deliverance
The sky crashes down
The dead wait for a long time
The borders of your life were early programmed
You're just a piece, you have to run forever
You're dying but living
The dead can wait
Some night it could happen;
A dream will be reality
You stand there alone,
You don't want to wakeup
You didn't get - to die
You don't know how it is,
You never made it before
You're dying, but living,
The dead can wait
Dead can wait,
Our fantasy devoured ourselves...
4. Still Alive
All the endless ways I walked along
But I never found someone at the end
All the dreadful dreams I dreamt
But I always woke up in the morning
To the headless and legless I went
But what did they want to tell me
In the water of a deep blue sea I swam
But I was not drowned
In the light of the fire on that place
I've seen that burning face
In the fire of that lightning place
I've seen my face, but I'm still alive
All the silly games I played with you
All attacks that I survived I don't care
And I stood on the top of the highest rocks
Never been so close to eternity
All the valleys of death - didn't try to avoid
But no sunbeam met my face again
As my body was ice it melted slow
But the night was cold, I'm Still Alive
In the light of the fire on that place
I've seen that burning face
In the fire of that lightning place
I've seen my face, but I'm still alive
In the light - of the fire -
I've seen a light - In the night -
In the light - of the fire -
I've seen my face
5. Through The Mirror
Forgotten people in the streets
Lonely eyes in the darkness
I wish you could find me
I think you won't me
Screaming words at the churchyard
The echoes fade away
I think you won't hear it
I wish you could hear this
If you want to find me,
Look for me at the other side of the mirror
See me sitting here
Waiting for the day to come
I'll come through the mirror
To be with you
Ask me boring questions
I'll answer you, but you won't hear me
Tell me stupid stories,
I'll listen to you but I'm to far away
6. Funeral Procession
A cold night - my breath turns into ice
The long track to this holy place starts now
The bright moon shines above the trees
I don't feel well,'cos it's me who dies
There's a funeral procession
There's a funeral procession in my mind
This is my funeral procession
There's a funeral procession in my mind
Now I'm there and I see these happy faces
There is just one girl what is crying
Now she perceives me and she comes to me
She touches my face, her fingers are cold
There's a funeral procession
There's a funeral procession in my mind
This is my funeral procession
There's a funeral procession in my mind
The girl in the black dress begins to shiver
She dies away in my arms
And her wide opened eyes stare to heaven
And her body slowly fell to a thousand pieces
7. A Sea Of Tears
I was walking through the streets
I saw, I saw so many lights
I saw so many people
Without a look in their faces
Come on to the sea
To the sea of tears
I went to where nothing else moved
I went to the sea of sadness
I went to where nothing else moved
I went to a sea of tears
There was a girl in a white dress
Her face did look so unhappy
Was she the queen of the night?
She had no voice to cry...
8. Dirge
As I heard you've lost your game
I knew that today we'll make it real
I went everywhere to find you
And I can't forget how you called my name
And when the sun went down
I knew that there's no way to help you
When I begin to close my mind
As I reached the place where we met first
I thought you're standing there
As I tried to take your hand
The vision suddenly disappeared
And when the sun went down again
I felt you close behind me
And I began to close my mind
And here I've found you, innocent and sweet
You lie there in the street
Your eyes don't tell the lies anymore
The're full of bitter tears
Your hands cramped as they tried to
Pull you back to your unhappy life
Your mouth is opened wide
To speak the last words but there was no time...
Now we stand here side by side
And we're waiting for the next black night
You give me a smile and you say:
"Now we start our second life!"
And when the sunset comes
We kiss that bloody life good-bye
And we take off and fly away...
And here we've found us, innocent and sweet
We lie there in the street
Our eyes don't tell the lies anymore,
They're full of bitter tears
Our hands cramped as tried to
Pull us back to our unhappy lives
Our mouths are opened wide
To speak the last words but there was no time...
9. Her Devotion
I remember I was standing
On a deep blue sea
And the girl beside me was crying
Her tears didn't wither in the sand
She just didn't want to hide them
Give me one good reason
to despise her now,
On her way
Give me one good reason
to be sorry for her now,
On her way
We heard an echo of a helpless voice
A child was screaming far, so far away
The girl beside me didn't move anymore
The waves drowned this little voice
10. The Release
There's a grave adorned with black roses
Fog flowed over her body
Like a haze of a thousand painful tears
It's the place of memories
Death is the release
Death is the eternity
Death is the origin of a new life
Oh it's the place of memories,
Memories of the many sufferings
Of the lots of anguishes
And disappointments of lonelyness
Of lonelyness and remorse
You'll be delivered of the anguishes and
Disappointments of lonelyness
Delivered of all the sufferings
Which have drilled into your heart like glowing arrows
Now you've find release,
You'll find Release.
11. Estrangement
The birds in the sky are the last,
Seeing the sun goes down
Before the world sinks in black light
As it's burnt it soars in the universe
Left of feelings and warmth
Only a cold wind stays
A wind devastating everything
A short view - and we fall in the eternity
Free of sorrows and fear
Free of pleasure and luck
Free and thrust out
Praying for another life
