1. Blood Opera
Moon in a dark sky
Observing the dark minds
Learning to see those
Demonic signs
Stranger than fiction
Is the truth we've been told
Animal bloodthirst
And the hearts so cold
Sleeping streets ignore the evil deeds
Sinful needs breed the dismal seeds
Shallow hearts will meet their broken shells
Hungry soul is where the despair dwells
BLOOD!
Hideous mindcrimes
And the youth well spent
Hate and anguish
In your testament
Yeah, those eyes are burning
With a child-like glow
Our world is nothing
Like the world below
So they keep on sending
Souls to the other side
The choir keeps singing
It's the final ride
2. Le Acteur de la Mort
I'm doomed to play
This eternal role
In these cold, stormy nights
I whine my lonely lines
Broken seats and cracked walls
Wind and leaves my applause
When big curtains fall
I play my greatest role again
How sharper than a serpents tooth
It is to have a thankless child
Who poisoned me before my first-night audience
Now I'm only a poor, lonely ghost
Prisoner of this horrifying role
But how noble it is to serve art
Even after death
And when the halftime comes
I creep down the stairs to
Watch old pictures of those
Forgotten days, long gone fame
Oh, how bitter a thing
It is to look into happiness
Through another man's eyes
I'm the ghost of forgotten theater
Diva of a shadowland
I'm the ghost of forgotten theater
Le Acteur De La Mort
3. Hell Parade
Air is different tonight
Somehow it doesn't feel right
Tension is unbearable
Is this possible?
Every step gets closer to the last embrace
Every single thought is buried deep in haze
Witness the birth of the dead
Feel the blood in your head
Unearthly, terminal drive
Will eat your body alive
Every nightly shade is ready for the kill
The mindless yearning for blood that is about to spill
That hell parade is chasing mortals
Face down to earth and join their feast
Leave life behind and be a dead man
Just rise again, you deadly beast...
and have some fun
4. Demonic Invitation
I sense your fear
When you walk that road
This unholy night
Will take your life
Can you feel the rain
Running down your face
The clouds are crying
For the life you lose
Just wait a minute
Take a look at your life
You have lived so long
And what did you gain?
Nobody will miss you
'Cause you're worthless and weak
Let me embrace you
I'm the one who wants you down
For the last few minutes
Walk the path you've chosen
Where the rain is falling
And the thorns are scratching
There's a light in a darkness
It feels so warm
And you feel like home
In a burning hellfire!
