1. Confusion
I am lying on the floor surrounded by deep silence.
What kind of show is this, what’s happened?
The fire is still burning and melting,
in my head confused thoughts are exploding.
I am lying on the floor surrounded by silence,
Shouldn’t I know better, that I need a distance?
Promise myself that I never want you back again.
I beg you, do not torture my feelings.
Take this terrible pain off me, I need to spit it out,
too long you’ve sucked (?), once more I make a retreat.
I am lying on the floor surrounded by silence,
Shouldn’t I know better, that I need a distance?
2. Graceful Tunes
Deep into that darkness peering,
in lonely nights we sing,
graceful tunes full of pride,
until the stars are all alight.
But the silence is unbroken,
our soul within us burning,
our voices were released.
To the edge of day and night,
across the streaming tide,
graceful tunes full of pride
3. Hidden
The sound of ringing bells
disturbs our peaceful sleep,
The ancient ghosts will wake up,
if someone spells the old words.
Silently the gates had opened
and spat out army of soulless wraiths.
We live in the night hidden from mankind,
identify us by our eyes.
Inside the forest we are waiting,
armed only with immortal will.
For the fight between the nations
of destruction and of life.
grow very fond of human race,
we are the bearer of light.
We live in the night hidden from mankind,
identify us by our eyes.
4. Spirit of the Light
Sunken in my thoughts
on my neck falling
glimmering dew-drops.
Like the dew-drops evaporate in the sun,
also my sorrow with the light.
Rays of sparkling light
hold this moment tight.
Like the dew-drops evaporate in the sun,
also my sorrow with the light.
5. Somewhere
Walking with hope inside,
illusions fade away,
through the colors of the night,
miles and miles along this way.
When I was born, my star was worried looking down.
Now in this universe lights turned off.
Like a lonesome wolf I wander around in my isolation.
What would I give for a soulful friend!
Somewhere under the stars there is a creature like me.
Many loves have crossed my way, all unique shooting stars,
and they have fallen from the sky, tonight.
I passed the lonely darkness bare,
and dared into the lion’s lair.
What would I have given for a loving friend!
But what about the world today and all the people on their way.
Can’t you see, that we need each other to live.
No matter, if the sky turns grey, there comes a time you will say,
Finally my dream comes true.
Somewhere under the stars there is a creature like me.
6. Quid Est Libertas?
Late at night I can hear
Whispering behind the wall
Suddenly my girl comes in
Looks like a Black-rubber-doll
She holds the whip in her hand,
now I can’t do stupid things,
I go down on my knees –
quid est libertas?
With a smile on her face
but strictness in her voice
I can taste my sweat
I don’t have any choice
She holds the whip in her hand,
now I can’t do stupid things,
I go down on my knees –
quid est libertas?
Hey girl – I’m not your slave!
I will gag you that’s true
show you how I imagine
what you should do
I hold the whip in my hand,
now you can’t do stupid things,
my lovely black rubber doll –
meum est libertas!
<Omnes homines natura libertati studere et conditionem servitutis
odisse!>
Die Menschen lieben von Natur aus die Freiheit
Und hassen den Zustand der Knechtschaft.
7. Veil Of Darkness
Waiting for, the rising moon in my Lunarium,
a stormy night, the wind is hunting clouds.
While all around me the fairies waiting are,
sitting on the trees with their soulless look.
While all around me the fairies waiting are,
sitting on the trees with their soulless look.
I’m so paralyzed by the spirit of the light,
that I perceive without moving my eyes.
The veil of darkness is falling over us,
I hunt with the wind through the forest,
the strength of Luna bans the water,
and bans us by her rising every night.
I dive into the lake of passion and trance
While my body doesn’t move from its place.
The veil of darkness is falling over us,
I hunt with the wind through the forest,
the strength of Luna bans the water,
and bans us by her rising every night.
8. Charon's Pond
Far away in a Northern landscape, governed by rocks,
There’s a dark body of water, surrounded by a forest,
Seeming bottomless, sunken trees drift in it,
Misty haze rises from the water, fills up the air.
Every dusk I move to this place, my destiny,
To look there after my drowned love, long ago
Because on the bottom of this pond, my darling stays,
And dreams the everlasting Dream of Eternity.
Don’t go too close ashore –
or else my darling reaches for you,
And draws you downwards to himself and
never lets you go.
At this place we made love for the first time,
And in this pond you had to give your life,
Directed by destiny, I dive into this water,
to the bottom of it, till I can see his pale face.
Don’t go too close ashore –
or else my darling reaches for you,
And draws you downwards to himself and
never lets you go.
