1. Alice in Ecstasy
No order reigns where their reason fades.
There's no space for something logic-made.
She's away from their educated society
In the wonderland of her own reality.
>>Refrain
Oh in my dreams she dances alone
by the moonlight of a fantasy world.
Then she ends and gives me her hand
to dream forever.
If under willows or deep down in rabbit holes,
About hatter men or cats on silent soles.
Her tale reflects our life like a mirror
And how to escape from authority's failure.
She dances in the field of sparkling blooms
Sending out her poem into wonderland's gloom.
She envisions a world where above is below.
Where tomorrow is gone and yesterday's now.
A simple world where her fantasy flows
And what's to believe in just her imagination knows.
>>Refrain
Their drugs are packaged in sweet oblivion.
Beware you might get high like Alice by the worm.
So don't swallow the herbs, don't breath them in.
Like her you have to vanquish this sin.
Perhaps she's permanent in the sky with her head
And you would rather hear about the real life instead.
But she prefers to hang with her fantasies around
Although she has never lost the feet from the ground.
Now don't you lag
No matter what to expect.
Cause every beginning
Deserves a first step.
2. Mourn of Despair
Silently you mourn about the old days.
You built up a perfect world but nothing stays.
You're wondering how you ever could fall this deep.
Money can't save your fall, it's going down with speed.
Your grey eyes stare into the cold sky.
Beset by all sides in despair rangs out a cry.
Even the best friends turned away, you're mad.
The town is deserted and your fearing that.
>>Refrain
Never will the sun shine so bright.
Never your greedy heart'll be satisfied.
Your face lies in the dirt, you're on the ground.
Fury rises in you, but unable to utter a sound.
With incredible eyes you see your idols fail.
Feeling absolutley betrayed your face turns pale.
>>Refrain
Arrogance clouded your sight, now you're blind.
You glance into the abyss, you built in your mind.
Your pride had beaten the hand, that offered remedy.
Had this problem been worth all the fatality?
Nothing left to loose, your smile is bright.
After you belie them, do you feel the delight?
Nothing in this world will offer salvation.
Open yoiur veins and then you will be free.
3. Demon may cry
The stars in correct constelation
And the circle drawn for evokation,
Summons my spirit by fullmoon
And I appear with fire and gloom.
Five candles and the silver sigil,
Step by step the spell fulfilled.
All reagents in the correct order,
And at last the closing deal.
>>Refrain
Call me with the iron cauldron.
Behold it's me, your demon!
This is the way you have to summon,
On black wings, your demon!
We are shiny signs on the wall,
Screaming winds in the fall.
Your deepest fears and sins are we,
Like the cloud-winged in the trees.
Come just with me, come just follow.
Hear my tragic song in afterglow.
I hum the silent tunes by your cradle
So sweet until you light the candle.
>>Refrain
Demons will never die, they just sleep.
Follow their cries, follow them deep.
Their lost world lies somewhere in between
And so they are and have always been.
>>Refrain
Where's the last sunrise?
Don't summon the fiend!
Where are the guiding lights?
We're not only in your mind
Where's the last sunrise?
Don't summon the fiend!
Where are the last days?
Chants and tales fade away.
For all days in this world we've been bound.
Weary of dull ages we walk still round
4. Infinity
I won't never be, you'd like me to be.
It's my seclusion sleeping deep in me.
Bid you help me cure your withered mind
Cause it's the truth you'll find behind.
Can't tolerate that you can't see
I've reached myself, serene and free.
It's your insanity in which you hide
Leave your ways and reach the peace inside.
>>Refrain
I need someone to break the day
And guide me to infinity.
I don't try to be a part of everyone
So take a last breath and fade away.
I don't understand what you say.
Dispel the demon mind away.
Afraid to fall in rage and hate.
The guiding spell came not too late.
5. Dark Track
You stalk feebly like a craven
Through a world with haunting ravens,
There's no shelter from inhuman fall
And no sympathy after all.
Glared by the dark seductions
Of idealogies pure infections,
Don't be dazed by simple phrases
For a moment of clarity in this messes.
>>Refrain
The Dark Track I ride.
Try to find peace inside.
The Dark Track I ride.
Find the guide by your side.
Idols satisfy the hollow ambitions
Of the masses with hollow solutions.
False love creates an inner hate
Innated egoism is desperate.
Is hell a place called earth
And heaven's only in our mind?
Fate is something for the weak,
where will it end with our mankind?
>>Refrain
Tainted traditions feign solemnity -
Splendour pretends flickering vanity.
Good and Evil rest in our heart,
Don't try to tear night and day apart.
6. Endless Journey
In the beginning the path seemed clear
Now there're meanders and shadows - I fear
For all times to roam in solitude.
Bitter, silent tears drowning my mood.
At night I shiver beneath an oak.
Through the leafs wind's wafting cold.
By clouds disguised rises the moon
From above I hear nightingale's croon.
>>Refrain
Sad voices calling me to yield.
But the tune out on the field
Takes me further away from home.
On my endless journey alone.
Dawn has broken as I awake still tired.
This is not the place my dreams desired.
But there's a melody from the hill ahead.
Skald, minstrel and fiddler play instead.
Their song vanishs in the mist of my way.
Sunlight flows through the wood in rays.
The trees silently whisper their tale
As I leave their shelter. It's my last vale.
7. Skald Song
"Once upon a time" our songs begin.
Open your doors and let us in.
Gather around the fire place
To hear this song from fairy race.
With the chime carried by the winds
Elves and gnomes became our friends.
Our words penetrate like deadly darts.
Conjuration, evocation our silent arts.
>>Refrain
Hear the spellsong rise into the night.
Evoking the circle to the other side.
Hear the spellsong rise into the night.
Tales about the twilight.
We attend on devil's parade.
We play for the dancing shades.
We command the race of rats.
We are the ones you listen at.
We dance across the hidden sphere
To collect the tales from nowhere.
We bring the past to your ears
And wander still around through the years.
You hear the dreary songs we sing at night.
The baning spell we weave by fire light.
We stay until the sky will fall to the ground.
In our tunes the past resumes to sound.
>>Refrain
Don't perform with magic runes.
Beware you say by nightly moon.
Don't call upon the ancient wind
When you write with bloodred tint.
Don't follow the noble ones.
Run away from charming songs.
Don't attend the circle dance
When you can't stand their glance.
8. Beyond and Forgotten
Once the rain fell so dreary
As I left, so weak and weary.
Vainly I had fought in sorrow
For the guilt I had to borrow.
Gently stepped ahead the door.
Far away and nowhere more.
The only tune that was reapting
Was my heart, my heart was beating.
>>Refrain
Beyond and Forgotten.
My terrestrial entity dies.
Beyond and Forgotton.
Leaving behind the fears and lies.
The abstinence grew strong and stronger.
Couldn't exist here any longer
Into the bleak world I dared to peer
Heared echos of oblivion and fear.
Stalked to the stillness had been spoken.
The future is past and the future is broken.
Drained by the misery that dwelled in my chest
I was pulled down and needed to rest.
>>Refrain
And there in the mist the vanity border
Ornated by runes in unknown order.
I stumbled to the gate beguilling.
Immortal faces in the crusts were smiling.
I closed my eyes and felt the shore
And the wind and nothing more.
A flickering circle carved to the ground.
The day was night and the night turned round.
9. Twilight (instr.)
10. On the other Side
And then day turned to night.
Lost my thoughts out of sight.
Mist of long forgotten times.
Elder runes in fading rhymes.
Moon breaks through twilight.
That's the only way tonight.
See their dance, hear their song
Now I know it can't be wrong.
>>Refrain
At the edge of life I will smile
To leave this world for a while.
The shades of the circle dance on the ground.
On the other side my fate lies bound.
The chant of the circle spell
Leads me to a place I can dwell.
The answers lie in my hand.
I'm not afraid of the end.
Moonlight rays start to sink.
Now it just takes a single wink
Between the time of now and then,
The mortal world and fairy land.
>>Refrain
My terrestrial life ended now.
I feel the world was vain somehow.
I have another way to go
Past the gates in the afterglow.
My final step through the portal
In the netherworld I'm immortal.
A veil of shadows colludes the sky.
And the first time I know why.
Now all seems so clear.
The end of my journey is near.
I roamed the other side at night.
Guided by elves I entered twilight.
11. Through the ghastly Sky
Back in my world you have never seen,
I stroll beneath the trees I once have been.
But the year passed by not long ago
Since we first time entered afterglow.
Old stories remain in single shivers.
The growling soil devours sea and rivers.
Forgotten faeries suffer from mortality
By this my world will die in vanity.
>>Refrain
One day we will be free from the pain.
And my Demons will fly through the ghastly sky!
One day all is gone, just vanished away
But my Faeries still fly through the ghastly sky!
The horizon breaks with furious thunder.
Elfish folks sing to lament the slander.
The day middlekingdom sinks into the gloom
Mankind must confess their silent doom.
Rain comes pouring down to the ground below.
Mythical creatures sleep within the hollow.
With my back I stand against the wall
But in my mind the words to spread their call.
>>Refrain
Dusk soars like blackened wings.
Willows entangle the enchanted ring.
Far over the hills the banshees sing
Unsure about what tomorrow brings.
12. Evoke the Tale (instr.)
