1. Vague Visions
I’m gonna tell you something that you should know
Here it is
Clouds in the threatening sky
Bring me the sign that I’ve
Been longing for
For oh so long
Insanity and pain
Are the keywords in this game
But this god that seems to be
He brought you life
Die
Wishing and hoping
That you will be the one who will survive
Revenge is never sane
But here it is again
Please give me an answer
I wanna know how you died
Vague, vague visions
Vague, vague visions
Forests green that burn in flames
Birdsong which will never end
Bleed to me, write the name on the wall
Truth is one thing that I need
So please reveal yourself to me
This world’s the cross everyone have to bear
Clouds in the threatening sky
Brings me the sign that I’ve
Been longing for
For oh so long
Insanity and pain
Are the keywords in this game
But this god that seems to be
He brought you lie
Vague, vague visions
Vague, vague visions
Vague, vague visions
Oh, these visions
2. Only A Crime Away
A painted picture on the wall
Of a face wellknown
In the night a distant cry
That seems to be without choise
Yes, deep in her soul she felt all of her love
Turn to hate
She realized that his heart was bought
By another, in blood she made him pay
A dearest child with many names
So beautiful, so wonderful
Yes sure, but still insane
She had the power to cast spell on everyone
But that turned out to be impossible
Yes his heart had been won
Only a crime away
Only a crime
Only a crime away
Only a crime
One crime
Yeah, just one crime away
Murder? Or am I wrong?
No murder, it has to come
Only a crime away
Yes, only a crime
Only a crime away
Yes, only a crime
Only a crime away
Only a crime
Only a crime
Only a crime
Only a crime away
She needs a crime
She needs a crime
3. Still Not Gone
Well, it amazes me how time seems to run
Yeah well, our sacred lives pass us by
Towards silence we’re drawn, forever on and on
But something is telling me that I’ll be reborn
As a child with a smile
So much left undone, Kingdom may you come
To me
This is my goodbye
But at the same time my chance to try
Just to tell you why I had to die
No please dear, don’t cry
It’s just the game of life
I am still not gone
Forever on and on I’ll be
The truth, the history
It amazes me how time seems to run
Well, our sacred lives pass us by
Towards silence we’re drawn, Kingdom may you come
I am still not gone
Forever on and on I’ll be
The truth, the history
It amazes me
4. Being Alone
Just look out and discover
Watch the red sun fade away
See leaves fall down on one another
On the ground they lay
While your heart embraces the winter
The wind blows the tears down your cheeks
So you taste your own pain
The fluid of misery
Why? Why did luck pass you by?
There’s no comfort for you to find
For shelter you plead in the night
On the edge you just wander
Like a blinded in a dream
Through the coldbeating rain
You carry your silent scream
Being alone
Makes you cry
Being alone
Makes it hurt deep down inside
Being alone
Makes you cry, it only makes you cry
It only makes you cry
Just look over your shoulder
See those things that used to be
Does the past tell you lies?
Will the future set you free?
Why? Why did luck pass you by?
There’s no comfort for you to find
For shelter you plead in the night
Lies, are they all in disguise?
Or just plain for all to see?
Hapy will we ever be?
Being alone
Makes you cry
Being alone
Makes it hurt deep down inside
Being alone
Makes you cry
Being alone, being alone
Makes it hurt deep down inside
Deep down inside
5. No Sign Of Heaven
No sign of Heaven
A long, bright knife
A weeping, bleeding sky
A death caress, a nightmare’s guest
Now is the time
Losing self control
Like a whore without a soul
Tonight is the night
The banshee seems to know
Hear the chilly storm
Fading out at dawn
And hear the cry beneath the sky
The curse of life is born
No sign of Heaven
No sign of Heaven
Not at all
No sign of Heaven
No sign of Heaven
No
Come to me!
A scary night of pain
So wicked, so insane
A fast goodbye, a piercing cry
The Devil wins again
No sign of Heaven
No sign of Heaven
No
Not at all
Of Heaven
6. Virgin In Black
A pretty girl of seventeen
With just a hope of fainted dreams
To find the only one in her life
Not just a fool in disguise
There, yes he came
He held his head so high
She loved this face of silent talk
A man of honour and pride
Ten days before their wedding
Their love was young and strong
But that night he died in pain
The loss seemed so wrong
She prayed but had no answers
Yes, her smiles were turned to cries
For their sleep on pink romances
They paid a fatal price
Now she’s the virgin in black
Yeah, she’s the virgin in black
Do you know that you always will meet her
Every time you go near his grave
The clouds were filled with snow
Her eyes were filled with rain
The death of her beloved caused so much pain
Do you know that you always will meet her
Every time you go near his grave
Now she’s the virgin in black
Yeah, she’s the virgin
Now she’s the virgin in black
Oh, just a virgin
7. Breakin' Time
Time is forever and so strong
So I wonder how I see these things
This gate you opened up for me
Guides me with a scream
I hear you, the rescue is what I bring
Now I know
That I’m gonna get back in time to prevent it
Breakin’ time (takin’ time)
Flying through the moment, there is hope for you and I
Yes, I’m turning night to day, making everything okay
Making music, making life
The ground is burning, the trees are bleeding red
I feel I’m there, I came in time
I know that I can stop it
And I’m gonna break her twisted neck
Right at the scene of the crime
Breakin’ time (takin’ time)
Flying through the moment, there is hope for you and I
Yes, I’m drifting on my way, turning all the nights to days
With an endless hopeful smile
Breakin’ time (takin’ time)
Flying through the moment, there is hope for you and I
Yes, I’m turning night to day, making everything okay
Through this sacred gate I fly
Now I know
That I’m gonna get back in time to prevent it
Yes, I know
That I’m gonna get back in time to prevent it
I’m breakin’ time
Flying through the moment, there is hope for you and I
Hold your breath, I’m on my way, I make everything okay
Through this sacred gate I fly
8. Our Love Is My Religion
Lying here beside me
I touch your face again
All the pain that we’ve been through
Has gone, my friend
You know I think we made it
Yes, we won
We threw this nightmare away
The emptiness has dissolved and gone
Fear was running right through my veins
The idea of losing you just ached in my brain
You know I felt the hurting
She put you through
I carried around all this burden
Like a cross, it was you
Yes, our love is my religion
Our love reveals the truth
Our love somehow brings the feeling
That my blood runs inside of you
Inside of you
Yes, our love is my religion
Our love reveals the truth
Our love somehow brings the feeling
That my blood runs inside of you
Lying here beside me
I touch your face again
All the pain that we’ve been through
Has gone, my friend
You know I felt the hurting
She put you through
I carried around all this burden
Like a cross, it was you
Yes, our love is my religion
Our love reveals the truth
Our love somehow brings the feeling
That my blood runs inside of you
Inside of you
You’re lying here beside me
I touch your face again
9. There By The Trees
Listen to this
So there by the trees the misdeed was done
And the birds stopped singing their precious songs
And when the singing that gave me pleasure
Is stoped, it symbolized failure
When his breath was gone forever
Strength was gained by his soul, by his soul
So be gone, killing freak, for you have sinned
And the future that you own seems very dim
There by the trees
Yes, he fell as paralyzed, this time for good
There by the trees
Butterflies embraced his soul
They understood what was going on
What was going on
The pact that you’re in has made you strong
But you paid with your mind
The Devil won
Is your life part of your ending?
No-one really seems to know
There by the trees
Yes, he fell as paralyzed, this time for good
There by the trees
Butterflies embraced his soul
They understood what was going on
There by the trees
Yes, he fell as paralyzed, this time for good
This time for good
