Fall to your knees hit the dust close your eyes try to rise as long as you don't realise that you never will belong to the ones who have been fortuned to be of the chosen few i'm just a wanderer on the path of no return cast on a pyre and waiting for the day to burn when the stars we tried to reach move out of our range when we've come to the end and we see that we never will change when the stars we try to reach fall into the sea and the demon living inside is trying to break free downwards the stair to the room of despair trapped by your mind and the key's not to find in the ruins of the past overrun with fate destroyed by the merciless hand of time. Take back a look tell me what do you see just a mere shadow abandoned and now that's me No shimmering light and no signs that guide the path A stranger reaches for my hand his name is death black death life has cut my breath when the stars we tried to reach move out of our range when we've come to the end and we see that we never will change when the stars we try to reach fall into the sea and the demon living inside is going to break free Go on now and crush every single of your trust when you're lying in the dust the desires in your head never winding up in bed Only liberty in death

The moon is gone and the night is ending my time has come but still I'm standing on my own And as I make my way on the floor my eyes are blind with beauty galore but restrained by invisible chains Rise, brother rise from the cradle to the grave be a slave to yourself You have to face our chains of this natural command Another ale like there's no tomorrow No oceans large enough to drown my sorrow till I fall When will I find a way out of this madness the circle of eternal sadness no escape for myself, too late Rise, brother rise from the cradle to the grave be a slave to yourself You have to face our chains of this natural command Dancing in the disco of the damned Unfortunate dance that never ends I'll die in the disco of the damned Fears, deception and death lurking ahead Rise, brother rise from the cradle to the grave be a slave to yourself You have to face our chains of this natural command Dancing in the disco of the damned Unfortunate dance that never ends I'll die in the disco of the damned Fears, deception and death lurking ahead

embrace the silence before the storm awakes under the pound of a million feet the ground trembles and shakes approaching sirens the gates are open wide i see the hordes of inhumanity vanishing in the night sail away soon the oceans blue will fade to grey live a life among the stars astray holding out until you reach the day when we face the storm of souls impossible chaos the agonizing screams of mortal souls on the abyss awaken from their dreams alas the seventh star arose with bloodshed and disease beyond this time of reckoning the world may rest in peace when the storm of souls has come to reap us all face what you have sawn, the final curtain call in the storm of souls the realms of men will fall who will be the one to still be standing tall

Far from the land beyond the sea came the wind so cold caressing meadows, passing trees whispering tales of the old I stand and watch the dancing leaves colourful in the sky As i'm embraced by sudden thoughts how fast the year has gone by The storms from the north take their toll restless they blow awaken ancient spirits in my heart and my soul Endless we`re bound to yearn for the time never to return as the colours of life are fading away Winds have been changing their ways shortened and colder the days lost every trace of my heart in the autumn light dreaming forever of a land in a far away time stormclouds now gather in the sky soon all life will be gone swarmbirds are waving their goodbye follow the path of the sun The storms from the north take their toll capturing my soul raging where the spirits of the winter now roam Endless we`re bound to yearn for the time never to return as the colours of life are fading away Winds have been changing their ways shortened and colder the days lost every trace of my heart in the autumn light dreaming forever of a land in a far away time

A year has passed since i met you last in the mist of my memories broken remains of a live we once shared now there‘s emptiness in me lost in dead memories i'm longig for you but these sad words of are silently echoing out in the night farewell forever our paths will never cross again farewell forever my friend why did they have to tare apart our lives and the pieces of my heart all will remain the same but the time will never turn for us again you told me once we could not go we could not carry on now it seems there’s nothing left for me now it ends my hope is gone. lost in dead memories i'm longig for you but these sad words of sorrow are echoing out in the night farewell forever our paths will never cross again farewell forever my friend you were the one who took the darkness from my life helped me to find my way through sad and tempest nights but when the flames rose higher, madness was the price no star is left upon the blackened autumn skies farewell forever our paths will never cross again farewell forever my friend

The wheel of time keeps turning All things come to an end To change our fated destinies We break and bend On the path to wisdom You can not wait and rest Fight the demons in your mind and pass the test Mourning hearts divide in the night Time is the test we have got to pass farewell my friend, beginning of the end So raise your pints for one last time noone knows when we will meet again I am in your memories I am in your dreams I’m the dark eternal curse The voice that screams Try to hide in mountains Shelter from the pain I’m the clouds above your head The burning rain He searched his fate on the other side of the land he lived till that day a quest of hope and he left his home to return with pride one day He lived in the shed of an old man underneath the roof where the rain came through and he worked all day as a slave already was forgotten by the ones he knew Winters passed and his hair went grey since he never saw the light of day dwelling in a cave in the earth he cried for the dreams that been torn away

Under the bridge in the shade next to the river there lived an evil bad troll speaking of him made the villagers shiver for he did not want their gold one day this yound girl, she wanted to go to the city spend all the money she stole thought to herself 'I am cute and I'm pretty. Think I can outsmart that troll.' No she never believed in the tales Trusted noone in the world but only herself Went to the bridge of stone Passed a pile of rotting bones So be warned girl: Don't walk to the bridge alone Evil and hungry troll hides in the stone He'll drag you back to his lair and you know what's happening there Nothing remains of you but bones and hair Up jumped the troll and he grabbed the girl by her feet raising her up in the air 'What have we got here? A lovely piece of meat that I for dinner prepare.' 'You can't do that, I'm too beautiful to be cooked. Roasting me would be a waste.' 'Truly I don't give a damn about your looks. I only care for your taste' so he pulled her out of her clothes Tied her up and off she went into his stove Nothing she could do but roast While the troll prepared some toast So be warned girl: Don't walk to the bridge alone Evil and hungry troll hides in the stone He'll drag you back to his lair and you know what's happening there Nothing remains of you but bones and hair
