1. Intro
2. A World of Immortality
Here I stand like a statue
I feel the blood run through my veins
As I cry I can see you
Reflected in my tears
Though I am trying to reach you
But you're never coming near
Like a shapeless silent statue
I shall slowly disappear
Because the darkness reaches out
And grabs me by the hands
Hides me far away
Just like a memory of decay
As I cry I can see you
Reflected in my tears
Though I am trying to reach you
But you're never coming near
Let the darkness reaching out
It grabs me by the hands
It leads me far away
Like a memory of decay
Let the darkness reaches out
Hold me tenderly, caress me
My sweet night of loneliness
"Make me your family"
I long for infinity
Sing to me, comfort me,
Make me aware
Lift me up, hold me close,
My fortress of the night
Hold me tenderly, take care of me
My sweet night of loneliness
Sing to me, comfort me,
Make me aware of my senseless life
and lift me up to immortality
3. Uriël in Requiem
And there he was,
I looked at him...
A man who met his destiny
Neither love or hate had brought him here
Just cruelty of time and fate
U had to choose between life and death
His life ended where mine began
Why?
Decisions made, confusions strike...
Thoughts consume my body
Feelings lost, a desolated mind...
Swallowed by infinity
Ice-cold thoughts followed me...
Into a mirror of despair
A speechless voice, a painless wound
My hands are tight by hate
What have I done?
The voice of hundreds,
He spoke the truth
The people wished him dead!
Responsible
It was my voice
He spoke the truth
They wanted blood
Your lies look for the answers
To quetions never asked (to me)
I had to choose a darkened path
Pain kept the light far away
Condemn me with your selfish lies
My destiny lies in my own hands
4. Soul Sacrifice
I'm tired of the ghosts that haunts me
Cannot seem to let them go
I now want to end it all
Surrender to myself
Give up every hope for life
Into emptiness I fall
No salvation for my soul before I'm lost
I'm in the hands of the unknown
Now I'm free
From my earthly bonds
I can go as I please
So I seek eternal peace
Or shall I roam amongst
The everlasting silence
Of my eternal sleep
Now see what you've done
You've chosen Immortality
Now you're forever free
Is this what you wished for and now received
A life of endless despair
Oh no trapped inside my destiny
No escape from my immortality
I don't want to spend my end this way
My soul's lost as I scream and fade away
You've made a soul sacrifice
5. An Eternity of Mourning
A cold wind touches my soul...
As reality takes control
It builds in my dream an emptiness
It hides all my feelings of loneliness
In this mist of dreams far away...
Lies ahead my future to stay
Lost, like a ship
On the sea, it's oh so painful
Images, they come and go
They let me know, I miss you
And my love is gone, and faded away
My broken heart, turned into stone
Now I'm lost
Like a nightmare come true
The thought of losing you
Stops my heart from pounding out
from pounding out your name
And crash into my mind
Like a hurricane
Why have you forsaken me?
In my moment of hope, love...regret
Am I to fall into the arms of infinity?
And cry myself asleep in the night
Hold your body like a hollow dream
Countdown the days of my life
The sun will never shine again
The deepest cold shall be my friend
In this world of everlasting silence
I shall waste my days in endless pain
You my friend left me alone
My sleepless beauty, my unborn child
Sleepless beauty, unborn child
A cold wind touches my soul...
As reality takes control
It builds in my dreams an emptiness
It hides all my feelings of loneliness
In this mist of dreams far away...
Lies ahead my future to stay
6. My Heavenly Escape
A bridge in the mist
Leads my path through this world
Silence behold my darkest thoughts
In a far distance a rainbow is shining
A glance in the depth there's nothing in my sight
As holy words speaks,
Giving me answers...
Of my prayers, I cannot fear:
Words of lies don't heal the pain...
Only the salvation of my soul
All the reasons of my coming home...
Are for those who left behind
I can't see Heaven anymore
All what's left is a shining light
Clouds of darkness leaving me
I'm heading straight down to earth
I can feel myself again
Without the hand of a mighty angel
I'm pulling towards my destiny
Entering the edge of earth...
7. Daydream
8. Quest of Kingdom
Long ago, a new-born king
Was left alone in the dark
His apperance made his father scared
And feared him for his throne
He was thinking over his abandoned life
A life in Hell and growing hate
On a day, his father came to execute him
by the royal martyrs
With a divine strength , he broke the chains and
looked his father in the eyes
He felt no love but only hate
and so he killed him with his bare hands
When he dived from the highest tower
An eagle grabbed his body
And the two reached the shore of freedom
To find shelter and rest
The gods were watching him
They shattered through the sky:
"your destiny is here, you're the chosen king"
Why can't he see his own foresaken face
To lose his fear and reach his destiny
For how long shall it last for him to stay?
By the dawn of morning
The guards took him away
By the gates, a lightning bolt
Hit the water around the castle
And a graceful creature rose above
Abolishing the guards
With a breath of fire
He ran into the royal quarters
And looked into a mirror
The face of his father returned to him
And looked him in the eyes
Your infernal dream is finished
And return to the kingdom
Where you belong.
So alone, so afraid
He find out it was only a dream
He's still waiting in a dungeon to die...
9. Maid of Orleans
If Joane of Arc had a heart
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me, who longs to see
How an angel ought to be
She dreamed to give her heart away
Like an orphan on a wave
She cared so much she offered up
Her body to the grave
If Joane of Arc had a heart
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me, who longs to see
How an angel ought to be
10. Your Shapeless Body
Like a dance in the wind
I float on the soft air
Towards the tide of mankind
One with my mind
One with your mind
Lying on my back watching
The heavy rain-clouds passing
Like a ship filled with tears
In my mind oceans collide...
And the world's drifting apart
Into a sunset of emptiness
I can hear your calls...
I can bear your screams...
I can feel your cries inside...
I can hear your cries inside.
Now I'm drowning in infinitive tears
like drifting on the clouds by the wind
In a dream that will last forever...
Or shall I awaken at your side
When I enter my subconscious
Your voice whispers to me
Calls out my name in silence
Like a soft kiss in the rain
How I love the sound of your voice
And the calmness of your heart
It fills my body with such tenderness
Like a sweet cloud of incense
To drift off with you into the sea
Dance upon the waves of yesterday
Like a dream of never-ending beauty
Love never dies...
