1. Intro
2. The preacher
He came at night
And nobody ever saw him before
Watched out for awful things,
He stood inside the tavern door
With eyes like ardent coals,
Dressed in black
And a bitter secret on his back
With eyes like ardent coals,
He had a world to crack
Out of the mist a silhouette
A rover came to get some
A nightmare-child for those who dare
- For those who care a Preacher
His soul is damned,
Has a contract to fulfil
His face looks tired and sad
But he seems able to kill
With eyes like ardent coals,
Dressed in black
And a bitter secret on his back
With eyes like ardent coals -
And with an iron will
3. The guts of the unholy server
Between the days
In the convent of the Lost
Kissing the ring of your father
Of your host
You are not worthy
For your value they don't care
Your life's a sin and just repentance
Is a fare - furthermore
You are a Nothing
And a nothing you will ever be
Explain "the sense of life"
And "Why I am" to me
Judas fell when he saw
That they couldn't win this war
So he opened the door
Soon we had one zombie more
By this way they betray
With all might which lies inside
Do you agree to their fee
And do you buy their light?
I saw the guts of the unholy server
Their life was washed away
Like the dust from my hands
No god to hear them cry,
No mercy when they die
The pain is the same
And the last peace you can't buy
Open your eyes
Don't follow these heavenly lies
Children of D-Star, moon or
The sign of the cross - however
Light the final flames
For the roots of this shame
Cause the dead hate the living
- This ain't no game
4. Horizon
And I hear myself talking to the sea
But the ocean seems so closed
With a teardrop running through my face
It's the end of the day
Which is tainting the horizon red
It's too late, it is changing the horizon
Never lost a war never lost a love before
Can heaven heal
When only hell knows what I feel
And the sky seems oppressive and cruel
It's the end of my prayers
Which is tainting the horizon red
Incredible thoughts rule my dreams
My thrill gets too strong - nightmarish
I'll leave these ruins behind
Walking into the surge
Breathing the wet eternity
And get drunk of its peace
5. First Truth / Last Breath
My hands were ours and
My eyes were yours
Did what I believed in
And trusted in the words you spoke
I was a part of a great idea
I saw a sense but now it's gone
Reflecting all I did
Until my darker side becomes exposed
First Truth Last Breath
My darkest hour came too fast
Gold turns to dust
Just ashes prove the burning past
The truth tastes bitter like the time
Which has gone astray
I'd better saved my breath
With suicide I'll pay
The innocence is
Like a puppet in the master's hand
It's like my name
Just written into wet sand
6. Looking down the cross
The shadow of the beast is crawling
Slaying your idols
Again and again I feel the same
Old pain is rising
Feel the bolt for whom I pay
Feel this bitterness every day
Enforcing my anger
But it's no longer my fate
Now -
Waiting for my father's tantrum
Apocalyptic blood will flow
Every century new holy destruction
Call the rage of your gods
Nevermore my life for your sins
Nevermore I'll light you when it dims
Decay is calling for your race -
And no one cares
7. Alchemie
Du bist mein Tod und
Dein Schmerz ist noch viel intensiver
Du bist der Antichrist
Dein Grab ist noch 10 Füße tiefer
Du bist die Ausgeburt der Hölle
Und frisst Eingeweide
Du bist der Satansbraten
Und genießt es wenn ich leide
Wir sind die Ketzer unter Ketzern,
Nur nicht was du willst
Wir sind nur ein Spiegel dessen,
Womit du leichtfertig spielst
Wir wollen nicht deine Gunst,
Nicht an deinen Lippen kleben
Tot sind wir doch ohnehin,
Wer will schon ewig leben?
Du kontrollierst uns nie,
Denn wir sind Alchemie,
Der Stoff aus dem die Träume sind
Schau mir nur einmal tief und fest
In meine Augen
Ich verforme deinen Geist und
Lehr` dich wovon du nichts weißt
Du bist der heilige Geist
Und beugst dich nur dem einen Gott
Deine Lehren sind unfehlbar,
Dogmen klären mein Schafott
Das himmlische Schwert
Das mir voll Liebe ins Fleisch fährt
Hat mich schon vorher umgebracht,
Bin auferstanden - hab gelacht
Des Schalkes Unterpfand
Sarkasmus aus der bleichen Hand
Der Stoff aus dem Verdammte sind
Hör gut zu und vergiss nie meine Augen,
Sie sind der Spiegel zum Geist
Und gnade Gott, wenn der entgleist
8. Heaven's gate
9. Demon child
Cold sweat, red strainer covering my eyes
A black wall is conquering my brain
World turns, things change
My skin is burning like an everlasting flame
My body starts to shiver
The rage has caught my mind
My breath is getting faster
The hunt is opened, prepare to run, mankind
Demon child - restless at night
In the pale moon light
Demon child - howling at night,
Turn to the wild sight
The beast awoke, the destiny discovers
The circle's closed,
bad temper's in my veins
The guilt observes me but no mercy within
I sold my soul which the devil obtained
My body...
Please tie me up, lock up the door
Don't open it 'til tomorrow
Please chain me up and drop the key
Until the first beam falls on me
10. Lilith
In the garden where the bad apples grow
A divine voice told me
We belong together, girl
In the garden where a fallen angel
Teaches me sins
A declined voice told me
We should be so close together
Lost and found on cursed ground -
First and only does not count
Curious and diffident -
Final and lonely seems
The sound of the first land
Your eyes are deep like the ocean
And I'll loose myself in your first touch
In the garden where
A fallen angel teaches me sins
We should be so bloody doomed forever
I'll await our first night
When the seasons tell you,
You're the chosen bride
Disaster-prone taste your lips
And to the sound of the first
You're shaking hips
Your wedding dress is turning red
When I'll lose my mind and lose my head
And while this heavenly might increases
You are crying "fuck me Jesus"!
11. Dein Vampyr (bonus)
