1. Apprehension




2. Burn The Witch

Drums, drums, drums, drums, are crushing the silence.
Heads, heads, heads, heads move in the streets.
Look, look, look, look, and there come the riders.
Nobles take the prominent seats.
Watch and fear. Look and learn.
Once again the heathens burn.
Burn the witch again. Burn the witch again.
Comes, comes, comes, comes now here comes the hangman.
Dressed, dressed, dressed, dressed, in red and black.
There, there, there, there, there squeals wretched wagon.
She rides standing tied by her neck.
Crowd is silent. Torches shake
God's own shadow, lofty stake.
Burn the witch again. Burn the witch again.
There she cries, terrorized. We'll burn the witch again

Clean we are from deadly sin.
Blessed are priests who strive within.

Clouds in the sky, fire down below tearing the world apart.
World will never change, centuries will rage.
Stakes will pierce the human hearts.

Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke is staining the heaven.
Burns, burns, burns, burns life in the flames.
Charred, charred, charred, charred, the life's charred forever.
Ashes fall on world that remains.
Sun has vanished, hid in shame.
Sky itself seems singed by the flame
Burn the witch again. Burn the witch again.
There she cries, terrorized. We'll burn the witch again

Burn the witch again. Burn the witch again.
She will cry, terrorized. But burn the witch again




3. Repentance

Down from the sky will they rain forth their vengeance,
Death, dying, all shall be lost.
Sins and their sons will breed wrath from the mighty,
Greed will be the curse of us all.
Only through grace have we lived ever peaceful,
Paying with sweat for our lives.
Weary of tribute we held back our duty,
Now's our blood substitute.

Screaming we die. Gods' will be done.
Man, woman, child, all, none shall be saved.

Bodies now fill every street, home and field,
Rot fills the void in between.
Always the flies of disease hound for murder,
Gods' will delivered unseen.
Falling upon our knees we plead for forgiveness
To gods we neglected in spite.
Playing the penitent, prodigal servant,
Praying the gods will relent.

Screaming we die, wailing we try
To regain what's lost, restore the world.

Now the Gods forsake us evermore, only Death remains.
Mournful sorrow will not move them now, on deaf ears we pray.

Screaming we die, wailing we try
To regain what's lost, restore the world.
Screaming we die. Gods' will be done.
Man, woman, child, all, none shall be saved.

Wailing we try. On deaf ears we pray and no one hears.




4. Stealer Of Dreams

Hide away your dreams. Watch me, I am waiting in the night.
Nothing's what it seems. Do you know what's hiding deep inside?
Just look and find, be surprised.

Yielder of infinite pain, keeper of screams
Holding the world in disdain. Stealer of Dreams.

Living in the shade I am ever waiting for the light.
Dreams will never fade. I remain secluded in my right
To keep what's mine, make it shine.

Master of stealth and disguise, I walk the stream
Flowing behind sleeping eyes. Stealer of Dreams.

Now behold me rise, I excite life that crawls the night. Hear me cry.

Bringer of infinite pain, keeper of screams
Holding the world in disdain. Stealer of Dreams.
Yielder of infinite pain, torment I bring.
Walking the nightmare again. Stealer of Dreams.




5. Kynvorloc

Passage by passage, word by word
The secrets I've found, once hidden away,
They'll now be unbound.
Guarded for centuries by the skalds' watchful eyes.
Their numbers dispatched now. None stand in my way.
The path to the Gates is clear.

Gealdor, enfold me, Gealdor, engulf me,
Gealdor, change me from man into god.

Kynvorloc I am, now and forever. Open the Gate to the other side
Diaballian, my Lord, I now invite thee. Purify the world, Paradesha is mine.

Erecting my army I'll steal all their sins.
Their lustful illusions, their erotic passions
Shall mass at my side.
The veil of the world, shrouding the Sin,
Their fallacy of life & death shall seat me down
On my shining throne.

Gealdor, embrace me, Gealdor, enclose me,
Gealdor, change me, from man into god.

Kynvorloc I am, now and forever. Open the Gate to the other side.
Diaballian, my Lord, I now invite thee. Purify the world, Elysia is mine.

Through love mankind stays the tide of nothingness.
Life and death remain the twins of existence.
But duality now dies, Earth and Hell will become one.
The elders gone, the young have strayed, and wisdom fades away.

Now blackness will come, destruction will storm
And undo the work of both Evil and Good.
Nothing shall remain.

Kynvorloc I am, now and forever. World reborn, oblivion remains.
Diaballian, my Lord, I set you free. The world is now yours, Paradise is mine.

Kynvorloc I am, now and forever. World reborn, oblivion remains.
Diaballian, my Lord, I set you free. The world is now yours, Paradise is mine.




6. One Last Dance

Say what you feel and I will follow.
Moving in twilight alone and beneath fragrant breeze.
Rubies and silk, the hall of sorrow.
Coppery crown of the flame, last candles, last pleas.

Ivory hand on trembling shoulder.
Eyes that can draw to abyss, the teardrop of pain.
Whispering lights, the stars grow older.
Vanishing world's standing still and then fades away.

One, one last dance. Tears flow in silence. One final touch, one last surprise.
One, one last chance's dying in my eyes. Last brush of lips, saying good-byes.

One, one last dance. Whispers in silence. One final touch you can't deny.
One, one last glance every in my eyes. Smell of your lips, weeping "Good bye".




7. Center And Part Of The Whole

She longs for explanation, candle blinds her eyes.
Humble revelations, wonder in disguise.
Who will come to save her? Who will take her hand?
World begins to falter, questions never end.
Why is the rain falling down from the sky?
And who is the one that lights stars every night?

World is every changing, people stay the same.
Crowds will gather chanting, shying from the blame.
Spirits hold the secrets, Ancients knew it all.
Every star is speaking legends never told.
Why is the light going down every day?
And why human life burns like mid-summer hay?

Who is the God? Is there the devil? Ancients were certain of all.
They realized Earth is forever - center and part of the whole.

***

I will be there, world in my eyes, listening to story never-ending.
Longing for truth, living in hope of eternal wisdom come descending.
***

Now she will see from the depth of her mind.
Now she will learn, she will look and she will find.

She understands how the world stays unchanged.
And, oh, precious truth, it hurts more than the chains.
The life goes on, Universe ever holds.
The man on its face is no more than the mole.

Who is the God? Is there the devil? She will be asking no more.
She realized what is forever - center and part of the whole.

Who is the God? Is there the devil? Matters no more in her world.
Now she has seen what is forever - center and part of the whole.




8. Verona's Walls

Moonlight falls on my face, and I look towards home.
Stars embrace, I see her face, painted in their glow.
One star in the sky for each tear.

Outcast, on my own, running for salvation,
They've stolen her, body and soul, professing my damnation.

Stars guide my way home. Shadows hide me this day.
Her touch, my only truth, their words can't keep me away.

Break through these chains inside Verona's walls.
She waits, always inside Verona's walls.

Murder was my crime, but only to protect her.
Death for life, now life of death - banishment for all time.

Ancient feuds take their toll. Greed, power, lust, all for control.
I'll save her from this decay. Salvation for her steers my way.

Eyes, look your last!
Arms, take your last embrace! And, lips,
O you the doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss.*

Life alone means nothing at all. The stars fade only to fall.
My blood flows through her heart, her breath fills up my soul.

Break through these chains inside Verona's walls.
She waits, always inside Verona's walls.

*Text by William Shakespeare




9. Heaven On Their Minds [Jesus Christ Superstar cover]




10. Fairy Tale

From the East we're rising like rays of the sun.
For future horizons, the glory of Huns.
From the steppes we're riding with clouds of the storm.
No mercy no pardon, no rule but our own.

All too long we slept,
There's no time to wait.
Horses gnaw their strains.
Swords will thirst for flesh.
Fairy tale is born.
Fairy tale is born.
Fairy tale is born.
Fairy tale is born.

From the huts and cabins the tribes' surging forth -
On foot and on horseback arrive mighty Goths.
From the West the vandals assemble their strength,
But armies are dwindling at our spears' length.

They will call us "Scourge".
Mystery is forged.
Let us know no peace.
Destiny is here.
Fairy tale is told.
Fairy tale is told.
Fairy tale is told.
Fairy tale is told.

Glory dies in ashes, the Scourge sleeps with past.
The new generations will come and will last.
We shall be remembered for shape of this world.
In ages to follow the glory will hold.

We had never stopped,
We had never failed,
And we'll live in minds,
Future will be kind.
Fairy tale still lives.
Fairy tale still lives.
Fairy tale still lives.
Fairy tale still lives.
