THE BARD'S SONG - IN THE FOREST
Now you all know
The bards and their songs
When hours have gone by
I'll close my eyes
In a world far away
We may meet again
But now hear my song
About the dawn of the night
Let's sing the bards' song
Ref.:
Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
Noone will ever know our names
But the bards' songs will remain
Tomorrow will take it away
The fear of today
It will be gone
Due to our magic songs
There's only one song
Left in my mind
Tales of a brave man
Who lived far from here
Now the bard songs are over
And it's time to leave
Noone should ask you for the name
Of the one
Who tells the story
Ref.:
Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
Noone will ever know our names
But the bards' songs will remain
Tomorrow all will be known
And you're not alone
So don't be afraid
In the dark and cold
'cause the bards' songs will remain
They all will remain
In my thoughts and in my dreams
They're always in my mind
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
And elves
Come close your eyes
You can see them, too
SACRED MIND
Could not break the silence
Could not move in here
How can they stay so silent?
All the grief and violence
For all they went through
For all it breaks loose
It's bursting out
Fire, walk with me
Fire, walk with me
The will is strong
Can I show you Fear?
Don't move
Don't turn
Don't come too close as I
Burn down this place
My spirit will set it all on fire
Would you like to meet the tyrant in the twilight zone?
Get in, don't be late
And breathe in my reality
But first break the silence
There is more
Beyond the dawn he's rising
Where darkness grows
He traveling in disguise
Now don't look back
Now you know why
We set sail to new shores
We will meet him
Sacred mind
We build a new pleasure-dome here
Xanadu
My Xanadu
My Xanadu
Don't look back, just enter
What I call my soul asylum
Where they are playing tricks
Everybody
If you like to see
Whatever lies beyond that golden door
It seems
My frequency's turned weak
Try to remember me
Try to remember me
Then for a while
We've heard the sounds of sirens
You turn to stone
Medusa's in your sight
I tell you why
Rearranged by the ages gone by
You can change it
Sacred mind
We build a new pleasure-dome here
Xanadu
My Xanadu
My Xanadu
Sacred mind
We build a new pleasure-dome here
Xanadu
My Xanadu
My Xanadu
Chance or predestined end
Praise, hallelujah
Never mind the end
Fool the mall
Fear the demon in disguise
Keep your secret inside
Let's move on, it's time
A thousand years gone by
The pleasure-dome
What will we hear
And what will we see
All a lie
There's no boat
There's no river
No shore
Journey's over
Sacred mind
We build a new pleasure-dome here
Xanadu
My Xanadu
My Xanadu
LORD OF THE RINGS
There are signs on the ring
Which make me feel so down
There's one to enslave all rings
To find them all in time
And drive them into darkness
Forever they'll be bound
Three for the kings
Of the elves high in light
Nine to the mortal
Which cry
(Solo: marcus)
Ref.: slow down and i sail on the river
Slow dawn and i walk to the hill
And there's now way out
Mordor
Dark land under sauron's spell
Threatened a long time
Threatened a long time
Seven rings to the gnoms
In their halls made of stone
Into the valley
I feel down
One ring for the dark lord's hand
Sitting on his throne
In the land so dark
Where i've to go
(Solo: marcus)
Ref.: slow down and i sail on the river
Slow down and i walk to the hill
Lord of the rings
MIRROR MIRROR
Far, far beyond the island
We dwelt in shades of twilight
Through dread and weary days
Through grief and endless pain
It lies unknown
The land of mine
A hidden gate
To save us from the shadow fall
The lord of water spoke
In the silence
Words of wisdom
I've seen the end of all
Be aware the storm gets closer
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind can't you see
That the winds will change
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind can't you see
That tomorrows bears insanity
Gone's the wisdom
Of a thousand years
A world in fire and chains and fear
Leads me to a place so far
Deep down it lies my secret vision
I better keep it safe
Shall i leave my friends alone
Hidden in my twilight hall
(i) know the world is lost in fire
Sure there is no way to turn it
Back to the old days
Of bliss and cheerful laughter
We're lost in barren lands
Caught in the running flames
Alone
How shall we leave the lost road
Time's getting short so follow me
A leader's task so clearly
To find a path out of the dark
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind can't you see
That the winds will change
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind can't you see
That the winds will change
Even though
The storm calmed down
The bitter end
Is just a matter of time
Shall we dare the dragon
Merciless he's poisoning our hearts
Our hearts
How shall we leave the lost road
Time's getting short so follow me
A leader's task so clearly
To find a path out of the dark
A VOICE IN THE DARK
A sense of denial
Come witness my trial
The crow has turned into a liar
I'll live, i may die
I've failed though i've tried
But finally i fly
It is the fool
Who puts faith in false saviors
The innocent understands
He's still falling
And furthermore
He's now aware
“come spread your wings
Awake now”
The enemy within
Will soon appear
You're trapped in my mind
Ask for the key
Don't search for fine lines
There's no release
Though i can feel its presence
There's a sign to reveal
Then after all
I'm sure i'll keep on falling
They send a sign
When dead winter will come again
There from the ruins i will rise
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Believe in dark wings and dark words
The shadow returns
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Black shadows they hide and they wait
But they soon will return
It will never be the same
And nothing remains
I can't find a way
But i'm facing it
Oh there will be no savior
I can foresee all the pain
They are about to creep in
“curse me, hate me, hurt me, kill me”
Oh they will rest no longer
“paralyzed and frozen
Free your mind
You're broken
Paralyzed and frozen
Learn to roam
Don't look back”
On stunning fields of mayhem
I will find no relief
It's just a dream
I wish that i could tell you
The vision fades
There is no sanctuary
What will go up
Surely comes down
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Believe in dark wings and dark words
The shadow returns
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Black shadows they hide and they wait
But they soon will return
In vain
Still i don't understand
So talk to me again
Why do i fear these words?
What keeps holding me back?
I hear a voice
It comes from everywhere
“now find a way
Cause you're the key
Begin to understand”
The descending ends
Now i know i won't fly again
On through the mist, i'm facing ground
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Believe in dark wings and dark words
The shadow returns
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Black shadows they hide and they wait
But they soon will return
ANOTHER STRANGER ME
A seed of doubt
It exists
And it grows
A glimpse of life
From somewhere deep within
Awake and understand
Is there anyone else here?
Somebody screaming
Please help me
Let's find out now
That i am not dreaming
Welcome to my damnation
Here it comes the real me
I didn't know
I couldn't hear the answer
My mind was blank
I should have known
I hold it back but somehow
There is someone else
Another stranger me
Another stranger me
That's
When the ice
Will break away
I can't get out here
Anymore
Cause none of my keys
Fit the door
There's fear and anger
Hate and love
I must confess
It's out of hand
It's cynic
It's cynic
Still cynic
All my laughter
It's cynic
Just manic
It's cynic
All her laughter
If there's anyone in
It soon will be over
We'll burn out
Our soul's aflamed
And we're on our own now
Give up you cruel invasion
You're insane i'll show you
I didn't know...
Out and gone
Can't resist
Cold and sore
The bolt of pain
Keeps ripping through my head
I can take no more
Don't tell anyone else but i
Do not believe her
See hates me
Cloud my mind
She's a deceiver
I can feel cruel vibrations
Would you like to meet me?
I didn't know...
Another stranger me
