Today is not my very last
Maybe tomorrow I will laugh
You have been standing
On my face for many years
By now it's time at last
For you to know your fears
I've seen a thousand wonders
I'll be the lord of life
I dream of vast illusions
Surrounded by the night
I turn and I fly
Dust to dust and ashes to ashes
The road of gold is paved with tears
You know the last ones might be the fast once
Your superiority won't last
I've seen a thousand wonders
I'll be the lord of life
I dream of vast illusions
Surrounded by the night
I turn and I fly
And I fly
Solo: P, T, P, T, P, T, P+T
The stones you placed in my way are
Nothing but sand in my shoes
None will break me but even make me
Stronger than ever before
I turn and I fly
And I fly

Hear the pounding of the motordriven man
Stabbing slowly through the desert sands
I'm standing hypnotized as if led by a head
All my dreams are finally over
Have you seen the lifeless hands of the iron men
A sickle spinning through the land come to cut the men
Down to the bone, the blade will find it's way
Everyone will hear the screams but no one has a say
Inside these temple walls they breathe and hide
And spread the acid rain
What is life beyond this capping day?
Life in freedom without ball and chain
There is no wall, no electric fence
Chromeplaid tentacles cuff our brains
That is why all dreams are gone
Ever since the dawn of time man has ruled the earth
Now man is animal, on the run, enslaved
Inside these temple walls...

I'm driving through that wasted town
Destroyed walls and burned-out homes
I feel sad and I'm afraid
Remembering all the fallen bombs
The ground where I walked
Drank the blood of many years
A deep cut in our country's flesh
And heaven is raining tears
A blue sky and the eagles flying high
Who defends the lives of the innocent?
Dark clouds passing by, war brought us night
Until the end – the breath of the innocent
Solo: P
I arrive at the village where I spent my days
Burned bodies in the church where the innocent prayed
And the well in the centre still filled with blood
The bones of my friends are dug in the mud
Solo: T
War is over but the suffering's inside me
This world will not learn, this world will not heal
The starving children, dead soldiers, our friends
They'll be forgotten, civilization ends
Solo: P
A blue sky...

Lost in a dream – our time will come
Lost in a dream – time to run away
Lost in a dream – behind the shadows
We are lost in a dream
Where are the children
Of the revolution
With flowers in their hair?
They're at the top of their institutions
And money doesn't care
Where has the green gone?
Where are the leaves?
All men of power
Are hiding like thieves
And I...
Feel so alive, all the time
A journey till the end is coming over me
To find the secret lights come alive
When time is running out who's left behind?
Is this the road to our sanity?
Is this the road we have chosen?
This is the age of luxury
Alive, fresh and frozen
Solo: T
Lost in a dream – our time will come
Lost in a dream – time to run away
Lost in a dream – behind the shadows we are los
Melody: P
I feel so alive, all the time...
The secret lights
Come alive [come alive]
When time is running out who's left behind?

Mission Impossible, nowhere to go
I am a slave to what I don't know
Work for life, live to work, when can I live?
Freedom can only be found in your dreams
Mission Impossible, nowhere to go
I am a slave to get into the flow
Living in a thunderstorm
Running 'gainst the wind
Heading for a golden light
If we don't break the chains
Twilight into the dark, we run from
Twilight into the dark
Twilight into the darkness
Twilight into the dark
Mission Impossible, nowhere to go
I am a slave to a prison in law
Free yourself, be yourself, fall to your knees
This vicious circle you'll never leave
Living in a thunderstorm...
Twilight into the dark...
Solo: P, T, P, T, P
Living in a thunderstorm...

I'm a retarded thing
I can't realize why I'm inside here
So many years are wasted
No love, no hope
The door is still open, they left me the key
But never I'd walk away
A shelf made of wood is nailed in the frames
Such a subtle barricade
The sun will never shine
The night is never black
My neon god is high
Above me in the concrete skies
I have to sit on top of the shelf
The floor is stained by myself
The stench of what I tried to keep
Has melted my lungs indeed
The sun won't shine, the words don't rhyme
I'm out of time, the shelf will remain
I'm raised in here, I'm reigned by fear
I am sincere, the shelf will remain
As long as I'm sincere
The shelf will remain – in here
Solo: P, P+T
I sort my memories somewhere on that shelf
Hide-and-seeks in the schoolyard at 12:15
My childhood fear systematically aligned
First wet dreams and all I've fantasized
The sun will never shine
The night is never black

Salvation is an honest man
Eyes of purest snow
Always comprehensive
Never need to make a row
A different song
Sung about my pride
Improvement is the reason why
I stand alone at Night
Solo: P
Salvation is an honest man
His march is slow and long
Walking on his bare feet
He always finds his home
It's the fear we hide
And loneliness won't lie
Salvation is an honest man
Salvation's tears will feed the sun
Inside us in the silence
Salvation is an honest man
Solo: C, P+T
Salvation is a friend of mine
We haven't met a while
But I have seen before my eyes
His sophisticated smile
This is my suffering
A song about my pride
Longing is my agony
I freeze alone inside my might
It's the fear we hide
And loneliness won't lie
Salvation is an honest man
Salvation's tears will feed the sun
Inside us in the silence
Salvation is an honest man
Solo: P+T, P+T+C, P+T
It's the fear we hide
And loneliness won't lie
As silence fills my eyes
Salvation, my guide
Salvation is an honest man
Salvation's tears will feed the sun
Inside us in the silence

You fear the tears will come, you hold them back
You live a burning life for the attack
Swear on the hammer, swear on your life
You feel the tears have come deep inside your mind
You take the thunder
You can take the rain
Take me down for me to blame
You feel the fire
You may just invent
You will never be my friend
Solo: P+T
You fear the taste of loss, the smell of agony
You live to show the world what you'll make of thee
Hide in quotations, lost in your words
Sold by your skin till it hurts
You take the thunder
You can take the rain
Take me down for me to blame
You feel the fire
You may just invent
You will never be my friend
Solo: P, T
You take the thunder
You can take the rain
Take me down for me to blame
You feel the fire
You may just invent
You will never be my friend
You feel the fire
You may just invent

Hey, little girl, what have you done to me?
With you I can fly as everybody can see
It took us a while to find our way
Now I can dream my life away
Within all my hope I would never have known
How deeply we'd love and how far we would go
My dearest love you are called in my heart
My dearest love I wrote on your birthday card
Don't leave me alone until I die
I live for the shine inside your eyes
We have been friends sharing laughter and tears
We discovered love while talking for hours and years
Good things take time, all distance is near
You are the key to lock up my fear
We'll sum up each other to an endless smile
Truth, trust, honesty, don't you think we have style!
My dearest love...
Solo: T
Within all my hope I would never have known
How deeply we'd love and how far we would go

[Choir]
Darkness will come to bury us all
We won't rise again
We shall be thrown all away
Like we threw 'way you
We slide on ice into a fire burning all mankind
The darkness will come and bury us all
We can't deny that we will fall
The hangman's attack we can't defend
He smiles at us and offers us the end
We thought we were strong and in deed, yes, we are
We are too strong, we went too far
To turn around we're not strong enough
Mother takes revenge from beyond and above
Why do we scream?
We are afraid
Mother bleeds
We die.
We don't deserve Mother Earth
Mother, please forgive us
The ship will sink and so will we all
We'll die in the floods, noone will recall
We cut our Mother deep in her flesh
But her wounds will scar, it's our own certain death
Why do we scream...
We don't deserve Mother Earth
Mother, please forgive us
Solo: T
We need you, so we kill you
But you will forgive us. Will you?
We destroy you though depend on you
And cry about end of you
We are the torch that burns your flesh
[Choir]
Darkness will come and bury us all...
Why do we scream...
We don't deserve Mother Earth
Mother, please forgive us all
Please forgive us all
Please forgive us all
Please forgive us all
Melody: P+T
[Epilogue]
We are headless children, we are crimson sons
We are headless children, we are fallen ones
In the darkness of our dreams
In the darkest of our dreams
I am afraid
I am afraid
We'll die in ice melted by fire

Highspeed-Fidelity beams in my mind
The future has/will/been, but where am just I?
Fullfilled up by an emptiness
The road up to nowhere is re-arranged
I am offended by the truth
The thruth offers pressure made by law
I wonder inside, wander in mind, wander inside
Wandering towards I'm free
I wonder inside, wander in mind, wander inside
Wander in starlight
Melody: P+T
I just leave, tomorrow is still far away
Tomorrow is still far away
I fly away on Mighty Wings
Solo: T
Injustice we all leave in peace
While corruption's spreading it's disease
I wonder inside, wander in mind, wander inside
Wandering towards I'm free
I wonder inside, wander in mind, wander inside
Wander in starlight
I just leave, tomorrow is still far away
Tomorrow is still far away
I fly away on Mighty Wings
Solo: P+T
Melody: P+T
I just leave, tomorrow is still far away
Tomorrow is still far away
I fly away on Mighty Wings
I fly away on Mighty Wings

Welcome to your endtime-war
This is not a dream
A nameless traveler
Appears naked on the scene
Human flesh and scanning eyes
The only vivid trace
Steel as bones inside
A machine behind it's face
Artificial eyes – artificial breath
Travelling through time – artificial death
Machine – running through the fire
Machine – running through the fire
Not a thought inside it's head
Nor a sentiment
Only bits and bytes
A machine cannot repent
The leader of the underground
Will be given birth
By S.C., [so] she must be found
And dragged away from earth
Artificial eyes...
Target better hide
He's always on the hunt
T-800 knows no sleep
And Arnie did the stunts

Show me the crucixion of my mind
Rip my soul and body from behind
Nail me to the branches of a tree
Watch the vultures grinding into me
Don't think I'll agree, don't think I'll breathe free
I will be the flood of the seventh sea
Dawn of the Night
Fires of genocide
Hell and Highwater
I am your slaughter
Hypocrisy - Vengeance, at last it will be me
The Killer from the seventh sea
Licks: P
I thought you were a friend, me naive fool
But you came running like a bull
Trampling straight across my dead body
But I was reborn on the seventh sea
Don't think I keep still, don't expect I will
I will be the hell of the seventh sea's will
Dawn of the Night
Fires of genocide
Hell and Highwater
I am your slaughter
Hypocrisy - Vengeance, at last it will be me
The Killer from the seventh sea
Melody: P+T
Solo: P
Dawn of the Night
Fires of genocide
Hell and Highwater
I am your slaughter

Slowly as the sun is falling and the day must rest
In the hours turning darker you will be my guest
Dimming lights and frantic shadows slither on my face
While your fearful eyes await me to take your place
Me to take your place
Ever snce I was a child I've had you in sight
Always kept the distance right until tonight
Born against – That is what I am
Although for freedom I cry
Born against – I'm not giving in
You have been keeping the lie
Melody: P
You have never realized barking all the time
Up the wrongest tree you'd find that the tree was mine
Dare a look into the mirror, do you stand my face?
You're my schizo, evil twin, so the doctor says
Slide: P
There was that day when you crossed my fate
And echoes delayed:
We'll never be the friends that we've been made
Slide: P
Now in this night this body will be mine
As you and not I have always been keeping the lie

I am two in one and I hear: everyday the same
There's a beast inside me and it touched my brain again
I do things I never wanted, I'm sick in my mind
I live inside a dark room, I left my soul behind
Insane - I feel ashamed
I'm not able to stop that game
Insane - I follow you
Let me die along with me
Insanity is the truth
Lightnings all around my head
Moving shadows, am I insane?
I climb to god to kiss his face 'cause
He is able to kill my day
I'm a priest and servants are my psychopathic ideas
My mood is so down but I can't see my tears
When I talk to myself I can't understand my words
I must be strong, I must be brave, my soul is hurt
Insane...
Lightnings all around my head
Moving shadows, am I insane?
I climb to god to kiss his ass 'cause
He is there to kill my day
Solo: P+T
Insane
Insane - I feel ashamed
I'm not able to stop that game
Insane - I follow you
Let me die along with me

You look like my grandfather should have looked like
Some dozen years of life
Have written a storyline onto your face as
Graceful and wide as your eyes
Different chapters and different scenes
And you always saved your smile
Some changes in cast have changed the whole storyline
Father, are you now alone?
I don't wonder how you spend your time
You dress like a grand senior but I can smell the alcohol
It's sad, but the fashion and your precious style
Help you not to lose your face and the status you have known
So sad to see my fallen father fall
And sometimes when I find the time to sit down
My mind draws a picture of you
And of the places that you're coming from
Or that you are going to
I see you leaving the store where I work
And right after crossing the street
You enter the bar where the other old men
Don't know the men that they meet

The lying hypocrits
The unclean scum
The cheating salesmen
Unworthy ones
They stand right in the way
Of the worthy folks
They have no right to live
At least not anymore
My land, your land, our land in his hand
And every man knows his command
Purity – one race, one face
Betrayal?
The leader speaks in tongues
The masses applaud
Aren't they responsible
For the holocaust?
Time stood still right as he killed
Millions in the fire to vindicate the lie
Emperor = terror
Emperor = grip
Emperor – mass destruction
God-like dictatorship
Cleanse the worthy from the rest
Dispose the useless, use the best
Lock them up in camps and stalls
And when they're done their ashes will fall
Solo: T
Medication, causeless amputations
Crematory fire to vindicate the liar
Melody: T+C
The soldiers waste their lives
For the Endsieg
DIdn't they cheer to the demand
"Wollt ihr den totalen Krieg?"
They march for victory
And fall alone
When the distant heroes die
Glory turns to stone
It's writen in the books

Out on the plains where the rats would hide
Glorious ruins of the civilized
Under a bloodred sky the rats would hide
Yesterday's gone, dust on the wall
Screaming softly of the autumn's fall
Under a bloodred sky the rats would die
The children of thorns must die their lives, 'cause
The children of thorns have survived
The children of thorns must dry away, 'cause
The elders'been left alone too long
Solo: P
Out on the plains where the rats had died
Underneath the civilized
Under ignoring stairs, some barren heads
Famine floured down from above
The elders had played far too rough
Inside a starving room, the orphans of the mushroom
The children of thorns...
Solo: T
Under a bloodred sky the rats would hide
Under a bloodred sky the rats would die
The children of thorns must die their lives, 'cause
The children of thorns have survived
The children of thorns must dry away, 'cause
The elders'been left alone too long
The children of thorns have survived
They will dry away

Hades calls my soul – I fall to the ground
My blood is running outof my veins – Dead bodies all around
Charon is his name – Pay him fame – Pain
Then he'll take you to the otherside
Swim on Styx
Pay with fame – And pain
A never ending night
Charon, Charon of Styx
Sun will never rise – On the river Styx as my heart dies
Now I must dream again – I can't resist
It's my final night
Melody: P
Death wind blows cold – Charon takes me home
On a pyre in soaring flames – Honour is cleansing my name
Charon is his name...
Solo: P
Melody: T

Lost inside of somewhere off my home
Searching for the bitterness of clearness
Torn between the safe and the unknown
Right to left and back in 20 minutes
Search don't find
Face your fear
Don't fear your face
Search and find
The answer in your Blood
All of my life I would save my trace
Until that night when the fire of the moment burned my face
One of my tears is a drop of rain
I have to live with the shame
Way beyond the pain
Melody: P+T
View beyond the blink inside my eyes
Recognize the narrow path of wisdom
Welcome to the way that is the goal
Shake the hand of doubt and enter sodom
All of my life I would save my trace
Until that night when the fire of the moment burned my face
One of my tears is a drop of rain
I have to live with the shame
Way beyond the pain
Melody: P+T
Solo: P+T+C
Search don't find
Face your fear
Don't fear your face
Search and find
The answer in your Blood
All of my life I would save my trace
Until that night when the fire of the moment burned my face
One of my tears is a drop of rain
I have to live with the shame
Way beyond the pain
Way beyond the pain
I have to find my home
I have to deal with the shame

Turn the page,
and a new lead to find
we always think the same,
and nothing much has changed
this resolution,
rings with good intentions
but we're still far off from mark.
I'm feeling stranded here
lost and lonely
hopes and dreams-
my only company
only time will tell,
if there is truth inside words you spoke to me
a lack of honesty expected
These scattered pictures!
Here in my mind!
they help bring life to memories
They help remind me,
I'm where I've been!,
and what you've done to me.
I will surely rise up from these ashes,
that lay scattered on the ground
I will surely stand on top these ashes,
and all these walls that you burned down.
Time again you've plead your stay,
cheated both your heart in ways
that bespeak transparency
f* on this!
I will surely rise up from these ashes,
that lay scattered on the ground
I will surely stand on top these ashes,
