1. The Frozen Tear

I walk this path in silence
A frozen dawn appears where I set my sight
Stare into the shadows' wideness
Past dreams that I can't freeze
To end this winter's night

Turning back to the west
What do I wait for? What do I wait for?
Just her eyes to look at?
What do I wait for? What do I wait for now?

Behold those inner mysteries
No back and forth, no step to left nor to right
You don't know what this gift means
I laid down by your side
Received this winter's night

Turning back once again
What do I wait for? What do I wait for?
Just forget to give in?
What do I wait for? What do I wait for now?

A golden dawn appears
She flies by my side
And leaves a frozen tear
...but just dreams in the night

Turning back once again
What do I wait for? What do I wait for?
Just forget to give in?
What do I wait for? What do I wait for now?

Staring to the secret in the west
Where to lay my weary head to rest...




2. (A Sleep) In a Watery Red

Night's fallen, flesh's calling
spilling in the flood some tears of blood and agony
There on the beach lying
wasting and staining the sands of time indifferently

Stranded on the shores of life
The fish's kiss - it still remains unanswered

[Chorus]
Bathing in silence, yearning to swim
On a calm and quiet ocean
Urging to sin or to breathe with no motion
While hearing the sound of sweet violence

Torch-bearer's burned wings
firing all the arrows in a broken fantasy
Star's fallen, sand-crawling
Dropping just like jetsam from a lonely ship at sea

Stranded on the shores of life
The fish's kiss - it still remains unanswered

[Chorus]

Until the day's end's
a bitter wet bed seeking a soft place for a rest of my head
Tender the arms which embrace the brave
I am fallen asleep in a watery red.

[Chorus]




3. Blink of an Eye

So please come in my friend, I welcome you
To the world within my dreams
Amidst this place I lie and pray for all
That your eyes could never see

And in this place I hide
As my world for fire turns
And keep the flame alive
Which for all my visions burns

[Chorus]
At day - The way's seen beyond a velvet sky
At night, so bright - far and wide a star goes by

I close the door my friend so you can see
What this world is all about
I see the stars from deep within my sleep
And no way to help me out

And still they shine for me
And slowly turn to ice
Still keep the flame in me
The light behind my eyes

[Chorus]

So here your visit ends
I held them in my hands - believe me
For the blink of an eye

[Chorus]




4. A Winter's Dream

Life freezes over when silence reigns the night
And darkness fills the day
Flying...my sun is your moon
As brushed black hair is walking
through snow-white fields
Behold thy life in me
Did He who made the Lamb make thee?

Winds breathing colder and eyes all full of fright
Frigidity's astray
Hunting...my night is your day
While snow-white hair is flying
Through dark black woods
Behold my life in thee
Did He smile His work to see?

[Chorus]
Icy I see I see me
In you am I
Eye see eyes
I see flies
Around thighs around me
Icy tie's
Around me around you

And tear our pleasures with rough strife
Through the iron gates of life
And your quaint honour turn to dust
And into ashes all my lust
The grave's a fine and private place
But none, I think, do there embrace

[Chorus]




5. Across the Oceans of Time

I can't wait anymore
Crossed the oceans of time
Hoping once you'd be mine
One desire I keep - for you
And just one wish I pray
'Til the end of all days

You are the light, the brightest light
I had to bury down deep in my heart
After the gloaming waits for dawn
The only rose that can bloom in the dark

At first beam I could live again
Not just shadows could touch
Be as close as the dark
Heed the voice in the wind
And the first beam of light
Takes away gloomy nights

You are alive, you never died
Deep in my soul you're condemned to live on
The day I desire draws so near
Forces the flame in my veins to burn on

And if there's once a rose that blooms
Like your never fading beauty
The sword of mine is at her side
Across the wide oceans of time

Come to me to carry what was lost
Roam through daytime grey
So long a search still going on
I came to claim what just belongs to me...
just to me...




6. Out in the Fields (Gary Moore cover)




7. Isle of Smile

I knew one day the time would come
Returning to the place I've been so long
An island here, no boat on shore
To take me far away to unlocked doors

Alone I'll be, just darkness see
And endlessly the surge's song I'll hear
The winds will call, the night will fall
The sound of bell's toll's what I fear

Smiling in the sea
A face - is it me
When I look into the water
My mirror, mirror be
A face - is it me
When I look into and see
Is it me all around here?

Inside here stands the watered me
the tower's tortured toll rings at my ear
The windows' tears, the eyes are clear
outside appears the drowning sea

Smiling in the sea
A face - is it me
When I look into the water
My mirror, mirror be
A face - is it me
When I look into and see
That it's me all around here




8. Bloody Shimmering Bloom

Dawn - the opposite horizon's
Red - a bloody shimmering bloom

Far beyond this sky's
Flickering a light

[Chorus]
So I told the warning
It's a fading light in the shining
Darkness calls the dawning
As I'm longing forth to the endless

Blue - those eyes return to haunt me
Dreams - remembering the past

Far beyond these eyes
Somewhere dies a light

[Chorus]




9. The Oasis

While the Sea of Sand's getting larger - in every Step you take
You'll find yourself attracted by the Glimpse of Fury deep inside
In every Moment, to every Direction - the perfect Angle sends his Light
For the mercyless Judgement to be ratified

[Chorus]
Dreams and Visions of Trees in the Wideness pass my Mind
Like a Storm of Desire in the fires gratified
Feel the Breeze on your Skin - to release from Sin
See before your Eyes the Oasis arise

The febrile Impressions are sent from the Past
Showing Cities of Sand filled by ancient Hordes in the Names of Their's
Time goes by and the Sea takes it's Children - back home to the Pale
No Signs left for the Future - impenetrable Trail

[Chorus]

With the Dawn getting closer the Lights fall - the Silence's last Shout
Goes out into the Wide where the Night comes - one last prance of Fright Future plans with no Chance of Fulfilment - discarding a Life
while this Sea shows no Mercy the Hordes arrive

Ancient Riders of Sand in the Wideness pass my Eye
Closing in on the Trail of all wishes and Desires
See them ride like the Wind - to fulfill your Please
They're taking you home to the Pale of the Seas




10. The Daybreak

As the sky's a flame, he stood high upon that hill
Only him to blame, on his limbs this frozen chill
That calls on him, the glow's beyond these mountainsides
And creeps his skin, he prays for sun, he prays for light

Now he fears so deep the second coming of a day
Just to fall asleep, his skin still covered by the haze
That veils his eyes, and in the crimson light of dawn
His life's demise - a stillborn child there in his arms

[Chorus]
This son of mine - Take me
Broken his eyes - Break me
A life for a life - Freeze my heart beneath this new horizon...

As the sight grew clear, a sparrow glides from far above
For to touch so dear, oh, this tiny child, my love
A lifeblood's leave, as the beam caresses its wings
It sings the tune, calling lost life from deep within

[Chorus]

Taking this side for to give him some time - breaks a day
Changing a light is a barter of time - seals the way

[Chorus]




11. Second to Day

Pictures of the past
Memories which never last
Within a moment's time
The blinking of an eye
To oblivion they turn and there remain

[Chorus 1]
When there is nothing I can remember now today
All my faults and mistakes will be forgiven
Then for me grows a second to day
The lifetime of hours

Faster flies a day
In seconds years are gone away
To minds which can't divide
As Lethe's flowing stream
Future from yester days

[Chorus 2]
When there is nothing I can remember now today
All my faults and mistakes will be forgiven
Then there rises a second today
But the lifetime of ours is fading away

The presence of the Now
Nothing to obey and bow
To time noone attends
The turning of the clock
A circle of no meaning ends

[Chorus 2]




12. At the Frozen Lake of Bliss

Vulnerable sighs and a virgin skin
A feast for the ice, she is so worth a sin
Sweet and fresh - I smell her blood and flesh
Soft as silk and white as mother's milk

[Chorus]
I will reveal what no light shows
With a knife in my hand I draw near
Unmasking the face
when the night flows so, my dear, this is your inner self

What is seen in water's truth icy life
No more to prove for sorrow's wife and do her soothe at the frozen lake of bliss

Carefully I peel and then rip apart
Which cloaks you unreal and covers your heart
Tempting snake - I see through all your fake
face and grace the bliss of icy lakes

[Chorus]




13. Whispers of Forgotten Care

Walk through the mist at the awakening day
Threatening obscure dismal dark clouds my way

[Chorus]
Seducing whisper leads me down
To shallow seas in which to drown
Trapped within magic lullabies
Just as I heard his cursing cries

"Never see the day lit time
Dragon be, revenge is mine

You will forget what you once thought was yours
I'll take your shape and I will take her, too."

[Chorus]

The curse will last until you see
And break the chains of "never-free"

[Chorus]
