A doll is a model of a human being, often used as a toy for children. Dolls have traditionally been used in magic and religious rituals throughout the world, and traditional dolls made of materials such as clay and wood are found in the Americas, Asia, Africa and Europe. The earliest documented dolls go back to the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Greece and Rome. The use of dolls as toys was documented in Greece around 100 AD. They have been made as crude, rudimentary playthings as well as elaborate art. Modern doll manufacturing has its roots in Germany, going back to the 15th century. With industrialization and new materials such as porcelain and plastic, dolls were increasingly mass-produced. During the 20th century dolls became increasingly popular as collectibles.
The earliest dolls were made from available materials such as clay, stone, wood, bone, ivory, leather, wax, etc. Archaeological evidence places dolls as foremost candidate for oldest known toy. Wooden paddle dolls have been found in Egyptian tombs dating to as early as 21st century BC. Dolls with movable limbs and removable clothing date back to at least 200 BC. Greek dolls were made of clay and articulated at the hips and shoulders. There are stories from ancient Greece around 100 AD that show that dolls were used by little girls as playthings. In Rome dolls were made of clay, wood or ivory. Dolls have been found in the graves of Roman children. Like children today, the younger members of Roman civilization would have dressed their dolls according to the latest fashions. When Greek and Roman girls got married they would dedicate their doll to a goddess.Rag dolls are traditionally home-made from spare scraps of cloth material. Roman rag dolls have been found dating back to 300 BC.
Dark Storm After The Light
It's Over My Broken Rage
It's Over
From My Vanish Life
Take Me, I Run To You
And Show Me Your Beauty Side
And Save Me
With Your Sacrifice
And Dance, Dance For My Soul
Dance For My Eyes
Deceive Me Again
Change, Change All My Thoughts
Kill Other Dreams
Rule All My Sense
And Take Me Home.
Dark Moon Before The Sun
And Prayers From Gothic Nights
Relive Me
After The Cry
Lead Me In Other Time
I Feel You A Part Of Me
Inside
From My Rising Dreams
And Fly, Fly On My Cold
Fly For My Life
Deceive Me Again
Change, Change Other Thoughts
Rule All My Days
Untill The End
Let The Curtain Fall
Rumours Move In The Past
When Safety Has Lost The Way
The Nightmare
It's Only Revenge
Magic Veils Are Flying On Me
And Their Eyes Embrace The Truth
They Tell Lies
But I Feel In My World
Dance, Dance Through The Mist
Dance For My Mind
I Don't Want The Light

Your Name Is Madness
Your Children The Dolls
Wax, Angels Of Wax
I Can't Live Nomore
I Can't Dream Nomore
Without My Dolls
