1. The Chamber of Confession
2. 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
3. Victim of the Inquisition
Oh, my dear beloved Anne
I write you in blood
From my wounded finger nails
In my cell, in gods hell
I'm waiting for more torture
And a certain death - fur sure
Through these wet walls of stone
I can hear their pain-machines
And the screams from all the dying
Believe me - I am - innocent I swear
It's true, but I can't take it any more
I confess - just to get relieved
They've crushed my kneecaps,
Fingers and my feet
Still they drag me down the
Stairs, so who's satanical
Many hundred thousand goodnights my love
Innocent I'll die -
I'm a victim of the inquisition
Flee from town before it is too late,
you are no longer safe
I hope these words,
will reach you somehow,
goodnight,farewell my love
They've crushed my kneecaps,
Fingers and my feet
Still they drag me down the
Stairs, so who's satanical?
Many hundred thousands goodnights my love
Innocent I'll die -
I'm a victim of the inquisition
4. 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
5. A Final Farewell
Hangman's dais
Not far from the crossfire stake
She stands there concealed with her cloak
Remembering her father's last words;
"Goodnight my precious
Flee from this town while you can"
Her sense fills with anger and sorrow
Her tears make her freeze in the chill
...So alone
Leave her father alone
...So alone
God, leave him alone
Towards the fire
She looks at his eyes with despair
His body is weak, and he's bleeding
From wounds made by iron and chains
...So alone
Leave her father alone
...So alone
God, leave him alone
A final goodbye
A silent farewell from his eyes
He's laughing and gives her a grin
Through the madness, he still understand...
...That it's her
Rememering her eyes
...It is her
Through the madness he cries
...So alone
She's walking away
...So alone
But he will be reborn
6. 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
7. It
You have awakened me
From my deep lethargy
Finally, you have gone too far
With your deeds
How many innocents have you
Killed, you hands of god?
You practise the evil that you
Accuse your victims to conduct
In the end you will be punished
Into the purple eternity
And I will live forever
Because I can't be defeated
8. 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...
9. Witches Garden
In secret I am, earth and hell
Beginning and the end
In darkness I dwell, inside my shell
With honour to defend
Let my spirit grow in peace
Take away your false beliefs
Witches' garden - mother earth
I am death and I am birth
The secret knowledge
In dust of thoughts, from open doors
I watch you rape my soul
By torturing the secret truth
The keepers and my youth
Let my spirit grow in peace
Take away your false beliefs
Witches' garden - mother earth
I am death and I am birth
The secret knowledge
Christianity, a try to rule
A tribute to the fools
You've set me free, the entity
That holds the mystery
Let my spirit grow in peace
Take away your false beliefs
Witches' garden - mother earth
I am death and I am birth
The secret knowledge
The secret knowledge
10. Dragons Lair
Dragon guarded the treasure
Glittering gold and silver
Smell of sulphur and fire
In the dragon's lair
Hidden in his mountain
Upon the bones of those who failed
With their heroic mission
To kill the sleeping beast
One eye always open
Watching you
Guarding gold and diamonds
Breathing doom
Greedy in his nature
But he can give, to the unarmed
A shiny piece of silver
To hold close to their heart
That they can keep his secret
Until it's time to fly
To bargain in Mangonia
A place beyond the sky
One eye always open
Watching you
Guarding gold and diamonds
Breathing doom
The dragon's lair
The guardian
The dragon's lair
The guardian
The dragon's lair
He gathers all the chosen
To worship mother earth
Charm them with his treasure
The knowledge they all need
They're waiting for transcendence
To walk the dragon's path
And spread his wisdom
The myth that they shall feed
One eye always open
Watching you
Guarding gold and diamonds
Breathing doom
The dragon's lair
The guardian...
11. The Devil in Me
Blackened skies, dark harmonies
Sombre tunes, grey melodies
A throne of gold (platinized bones)
The moonlight shining red
The secret ryche in my head
He rips the wall between our minds
His prison faces this other side
He screams
The devil in me
The devil in me
Silvery tears from tired eyes
Abysmal roar the devil cries
He faces a fallen paradise
Built by fools (and fatal lies)
A fallen beast, a fallen man
Both deceived, we stand condemned
I understand his better thoughts
He wanted freedom, now he's caught within
The devil in me
The devil in me
Once we both believed in god
He told us lies, a pact in blood
Through madness we travelled, on angelical demons
Up and down in the sand glass of oblivion
Remember, remember
My daughter and her eyes...
A throne for me, a throne for him
A throne for all the fallen kings
We march the road to the fallen gates
To rule the purple barren waste
The moonlight shining red
The secret ryche in my head
He rips the wall between our minds
His prison faces this other side
He's free - the devil in me
The devil in me
The devil in me
The devil in me
The devil in me
12. Where Fallen Angels Rule
Child of life, hear me cry
I'm calling from the other side
On forgotten waves, beyond my grave
I send you thoughts so save your prayers
Never say die, you have to rely
On your inner strength that never dies
I'm relieved, my spirit's free
From here I rule my own destiny
The retribution, fly on wings
Eating falseness, blame and sin
Endless rows of crucified
All tormentors that us denied
Here they suffer, here they pay
Here they will forever stay
Understand my situation
I am a revenging angel
Where fallen angels rule
I've seen the future in my dreams
Evil is a giant wheel
That's rolling on through endless time
With its perfect flawless chime
Manipulating man and mind
Make 'em greedy, senseless, blind
But here they hang, the wretched fools
In this land where angels rule
Where fallen angels rule
13. Creatures of the Hierarchy
Beyond the wall, there's a land of gold
Hard to believe, but it's for real
A prolongation of your dreams
It has been there since the dawn of time
In astral skies, there live the allies of the
Secret hierarchy
Eternal hunger, rule their destiny
They're taking care of
The malice and malignity
Eyes of fire, tremendous signity
Screaming flyers
The creatures of the hierarchy
They are the servants of a thousand kings
They ride the wind, on giant wings
Obey their masters, eating sin
There is a place in this paradise
A purple hell, a desert land
Where darkness suffer to the end
Eternal hunger, rule their destiny
They're taking care of
The malice and malignity
Eyes of fire, tremendous dignity
Screaming flyers
The creatures of the hierarchy
14. Nemesis
