1. Master of the Masquerade
Pain - doesn't matter much to me
I was born out of chaos of time
So I knoe what suffering means
Rage - I am black inside my soul
Don't you know that I'm hiding inside you?
I am the master of disguise
A new wind of justice shall blow over earth
The soul that you keep is going to be reborn
Awake - I will conquer once again
My power shall rule over you
And crush the evil that you do
Shame - what do you think I am
You moulder my roots with your trials
How many victims have died
A new wind of justice shall blow over earth
The soul that you keep is going to be reborn
The master of the masquerade
I am
The master of the masquerade
Die - wither in my hell
My black soul is all over you
I'll get you, you know that I will
Lies - you charlatans of Christ
You indoctrinate all the ones you scare
Then - you control, their fear
Shame - what do you think I am
You moulder my roots with your trials
How many victims have died
A new wind of justice shall blow over earth
The soul that you keep is going to be reborn
The master of the masquerade
I am
The master of the masquerade...
2. Time Is God
I have been in tomorrow there was not much to see
I was the only one cause no one else could be
Well time was there as an insult to the watch he is the master of eternity
There is time to gain there is time to lose we are ruled by its course
We live and we die but time goes on through every now
Forever more- the time is god
He is a collector of everything we do and every scene goes on forever more
I have seen the echoes from the past in a dimension never known to us
There is time to gain...
Always presence and never late he does not care he is just watching our fate
And whatever we are supposed to do
We cannot change the fact that we are ruled
There is time to gain...
3. Nowhere Island
I miss the evenings the small talk that we had
I miss your presence the good things and the bad
I smell the morning air the colours of the dawn
Things that matter now when it's out of reach
All the things I took for granted
I do now esteem
Every thing that I neglected
I wish to redeem
In this silence on nowhere island
I can see the life I had passing by
In the place of dying I'm weeping crying
Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies
In this nowhere I'm looking back on life
What was my vision in life before I died - I know
That this place of emptiness a castody for souls
Will not bring me back no one hear my calls
All the things I took for granted
I don now esteem
Every thing that I neglected
I wish to redeem
In this silence on nowhere island
I can see the life I had passing by
In the place of dying I'm weeping crying
Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies
My destination the cold eternity
I will forever roam through infinity
And I am doomed to silence in this astral skies
I want to be again I wish I were alive
All the things I took for granted
I do now esteem
Every thing that I neglected
I wish to redeem
In this silence on nowhere island
I can see the life I had passing by
In the place of dying I'm weeping crying
Too late to be forgiven for my sins and
4. Maleficium
I'm burning - in fire
So hard to stand against the flames
Deception - who told them
About the magic I possess?
The power - from your well
Are slowly peter out
Mother - of Tellus
Give me strength
To cast a spell
You burn me now
Before them all
You fear my kind
Because of the things I know
Magic knowledge
Ancient secret rituals
Black forbidden
Maleficium
Save me - I'm dying
Give me a shelter after life
Curse them - my tormentors
Give them the spell of the purple sand
You burn me now
Before them all
You fear my kind
Because of the things I knwo
Magic knowledge
Ancient secret rituals
Black forbidden
Maleficium
I'm boiling - I'm coming
Hail you, the guardian of the earth
I'm burning - and dying
But wait and witness my rebirth
You burn me now
Before them all
You fear my kind
Because of the things I know
Magic knowledge
Ancient secret rituals
Black forbidden
Maleficium
5. Red Moon
The battle's lost
The army scattered in destruction
The king is dead
He drove his sword into a stone
A land without a king
Who'll be the one to follow?
No one managed
No man worthy of the throne
Break the spell, you son of a king
Excalibur awaits you
Rule our land, guide us the way
Give us back the glory we once had
In his court of Camelot
The knights of the round table
To lead the Britains
Is his life and prophecy
Deceived by Morgana Lefay
His bastard sister
Berawed, was left the nation
Of sorrow and of plague
He's the eyes of the war
He's the force of the law
Magician absolute
He's the eyes, he's the ears
Knowing lies and your fears
The sorcerer supreme
He's the eyes of the war
He's the force of the law
Magician absolute
He's the eyes, he's the ears
Knowing lies and your fears
The sorcerer supreme
Must solve the quest of time
The grail is the salvation
Saved from evil and
Abandoned to be found
Hail the king
Heed the dragon's fire
Called up with anger
From the deepest agony
Break the spell, you son of a king
Excalibur awaits you
Rule our land, guide us the way
Give us back the glory we once had
6. To Isengard
To Isengard though Isengard be ringed and barred with doors of stone
Though Isengard be strong and hard as cold as stone and bare as-bone...
We go we go we go to war to hew the stone and break the door
For bole and bough are burning now the furnace roars we go to war
To land of gloom with tramp of doom with roll of drum we come we come
We come we come with rool of drum with horn and drum we come
6. Lord Of The Rings
Three rings for the elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for the mortal men doomed to die,
One for the dark lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them all one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie"
The lord of the rings
The one of them all
The lord of the rings
Gets into your soul
Three rings in the elven-land defying the dark
The dwarf-lords have lost their rings three have been found
By the mortal men now bearing Sauron's mark
The war of the ring begins on evil ground
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them all one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of the dark lord where freedom dies
The lord of the rings
he one of them all
The lord of the rings
Gets into your soul
7. Lord of the Rings
Three rings for the elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for the mortal men doomed to die,
One for the dark lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them all one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie"
The lord of the rings
The one of them all
The lord of the rings
Gets into your soul
Three rings in the elven-land defying the dark
The dwarf-lords have lost their rings three have been found
By the mortal men now bearing Sauron's mark
The war of the ring begins on evil ground
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them all one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of the dark lord where freedom dies
The lord of the rings
he one of them all
The lord of the rings
Gets into your soul
8. Madness
The crazy man inside my head
Waking up with empty eyes
He envies me, wishes that I was dead
My common sense wants to see him die
Taking over more and more
He's screaming through my soul
He uses my eyes to make me see
The world in a twisted reality
The power of madness
Is tearing down my mind
Into the darkness of fools
Where shadows lurk and madness rules
Madness, madness, madness
Madness is tearing down my mind
Madness, madness, madness
Madness, my senses going blind
Too late for me, insanity
Is spreading like a disease
My body shake, a nervous ache
I'm going crazy
Help, for god's sake
The power of madness
Is tearing down my mind
Into the darkness of fools
Where shadows lurk and madness rules
Madness, madness, madness
Madness is tearing down my mind
Madness, madness, madness
Madness, my senses going blind
I'm laughing at god
And I'm laughing at satan in hell
I'm fettered in chains on the rack
Suffering god's torture and pain
Inquisition, a demon you are
Take a life to find out a false truth
But after you've stolen my life
you'll suffer the vultures' fete
I confess, I'm the one, take my life
Make it done, once and for all
I feel no more, care no more, see no more
The pain is gone
Madness is stronger than mind
In this land where I am
Everything is fine
You torture me, but I am free
I feel nothing, crazy me
The power of madness
Is tearing down my mind
Into the darkness of fools
Where shadows lurk and madness rules
Madness, madness, madness
Madness is tearing down my mind
Madness, madness, madness
Leave the common sense behind
9. What Am I
In the darkness I see her shadow
As a lonely sad silhouette
I'm remorseful but my pride still
Is too strong to accept my regrets
I sit in silence crouched in a corner
I hear the hollow ticking of the clock
My mind is chasing thoughts that are fleeing
Oh god of mercy! Do I know what I have done
I rest my head in hands that tremble
I'm repressing thoughts of what I am
I am scared of the power of my feelings
I can't bear the burden of the deeds
I can't trust the nature of my being
Cause my hate is fiery and profound
Each passing minute feels like an eon
Time seems unreal in the presence of death
I'm spinning deeper into my madness
Clinging on to traces of hope
I rest my head in hands that are shaking
I'm denying the facts of what I am
I close my eyes but the scene I'm seeing
Keep's repeating again and again
I can't leash the fury I'm feeling
I cannot break the circle of my rage
I can't trust the nature of my being
'Cos my hate is fiery and profound
10. Excalibur
The battle's lost
The army scattered in destruction
The king is dead
He drove his sword into a stone
A land without a king
Who'll be the one to follow?
No one managed
No man worthy of the throne
Break the spell, you son of a king
Excalibur awaits you
Rule our land, guide us the way
Give us back the glory we once had
In his court of Camelot
The knights of the round table
To lead the Britains
Is his life and prophecy
Deceived by Morgana Lefay
His bastard sister
Berawed, was left the nation
Of sorrow and of plague
He's the eyes of the war
He's the force of the law
Magician absolute
He's the eyes, he's the ears
Knowing lies and your fears
The sorcerer supreme
He's the eyes of the war
He's the force of the law
Magician absolute
He's the eyes, he's the ears
Knowing lies and your fears
The sorcerer supreme
Must solve the quest of time
The grail is the salvation
Saved from evil and
Abandoned to be found
Hail the king
Heed the dragon's fire
Called up with anger
From the deepest agony
Break the spell, you son of a king
Excalibur awaits you
Rule our land, guide us the way
Give us back the glory we once had
11. Mad Messiah
Mad Messiah falls but hallowed you were sanctified
Your fantastic lies were followed by the weak and blind
They believed in you so badly and practised what you preached
You took the name of god in vain were you man or beast
Your assembly and requiem your prophecy of doom
The redeemer in the sky did he laugh or cry
You lead them to the doom god's almighty lord praise the fools of earth
Mad messiah salvation by fire
If he told you what to do god must be evil too
In desperation humiliation you took their lives away
Your bad religion and sectarianism it is all a mad man's work
Dehumanized then sacrificed to an empty sky
You lead them to the doom god's almighty lord praise the fools of death
Mad Messiah salvation by fire
Mad Messiah you were a liar just a fraud and fake
What is there to say you burned in hell I hope you were satisfied
You lead them...
12. Paradise Lost
I am the lord of the fallen
The ultimate rebel from paradise
A philosopher free thinking breed
The sovereign of anarchy
Legionaries of every tribe
This is where we dwell
A place of eternal dusk
We are the dignitaries of hell
Here we shall rule
Even though it isn't hell
I will retake
My lost paradise
Into the garden of Eden
As a serpent I come to tempt
I offer you to taste the fruit
From the tree of knowledge
I make you a demigod
I give you my thoughts
I want to make sure that you will be
A rebellion to the trinity
Here we shall rule
Even though it isn't hell
I will retake
My lost paradise
Fallen into the abyss of fire
Fallen into the abyss of fire
13. Wonderland
Have I seen all there is to see?
Or is there more left to be?
The deepest of thoughts
The fantasies, the neverending
Harmonies
Here I am, locked in reality
In a world of anxiety
I have to escape
Explore the possibilities
Can dreams become true?
On a unicorn I am riding
To the wonderland
I'll hold her silver mane, face a dream
I wonder if I will return
From my journey to the wonderland
Far away, deep within universe
Through the arcades of mystery
The dullness is gone
My mind collecting pieces
Of a life I will live
On a unicorn I am riding
To the wonderland
Me they will rehabilitate with
A strait-jacket on
They wonder if I will return
From my journey in the wonderland
They are searching, but they can't find
I am hiding inside my mind
Can you keep a secret? I'm not me
I am forever in my fantasy
On a unicorn I am riding
To the wonderland
I'll hold her silver mane, face a dream
I wonder if I will return
From my journey to the wonderland
Wonderland, wonderland
Take me to that neverland
Wonderland
14. The Source of Pain
Before god you must tell the truth
As you know this is a trial
What have I done? I am innocent.
I do not understand
Oh, I see you deny the crimes
Let us find out what is true
What do you do, What's going on?
Tell me where I am
Welcome, to the cellar of pain
Let the questioning begin
I'm the chief magistrate
In god I put my faith
Blasphemous lying beast
The devil is your lord
Insane, a big mistake
What have you been told?
I want you to tell me
Kneel and confess what you are
I'm a master of torture
But the pain that you feel is the dark
The source of...
The source of pain
To the end of your life and forever more
The source of...
The source of pain
To the end of your life and forever more
Look around, what you see
Is gonna make you talk
Chains and racks don't frighten me
I'm innocent and free
Is that a sarcastic tongue
I hear in front of me?
I don't care what you think
But scare me you cannot
I want you to tell me
Kneel and confess what you are
I'm a master of torture
But the pain that you feel
Is the dark
The source of...
The source of pain
To the end of your life and forever more
