Imaginations From The Other Side

Where are these silent faces

I took them all

they all went away

now you're alone

to turn out every light so deep in me

hold on, too late

Will I ever see them back again

or did they all die by my hand

or where they killed

by the old evil ghost

who had taken

the ocean

of all my dreams

which were worth to keep

deep inside my heart

I wish I

could get them back

from the everflow

before they'll fade away

Ref.:

Imaginations from the other side

far out of nowhere

it got back to my mind

Imaginations from the other side

far out of nowhere

it got back to my mind

out of the dark

back to the light

then I'll break down

the walls around my heart

Imaginations from the other side

Where's the ocean's daughter

was Peter Pan in Mordor

no one's there to keep alive

all these fairy tales

may I return to Oz

will I meet the "Tin Man"

"Coward Lion" where are you

without brain the scarecrow's lost

in the middle of the lake

stranded in the real world

left in a world

no place for daydreams

serious life

I fall into

I fall into a dark hole

and I can't come out

do you know if Merlin did exist

or Frodo wore the ring

did Corum kill the gods

or where's the wonderland

which young Alice had seen

or was it just a dream

I knew the answers

now they're lost for me

Ref.

(Solo)

I hope there is a way back

with my talisman

so I look into myself

to the days when I was just a child

come follow me to wonderland

and see the tale that never ends

don't fear the lion nor the witch

I can't come back

I'm lost but still I know

there is another world

Ref.

 

I'm Alive

I run through the dark fields

of the plains

reach level 99

the pain cuts deep down

through my vain

how will I break the ice

welcome to my reality

dream forever

sunlight instead of neon light

how will it be

welcome to my grave

and feel the dream is over

nothing can stop me

I reach out for the top

Bridge:

Caught in an old cage

the system failed

built up on lies

now I see that I'm alone

in asylum's cage

I'm left alone

Ref.:

I'm alive my friend

I can feel the shadows everywhere

I'm alive

I left the shadows

far behind me

another one is waiting in the dark

They say the system keeps

the last chance to survive

caught in this labyrinth

of walls and lots of lies

then I began to understand

there's more above than ice

to reach the top

I crept deep down

the answers given in the past

a senseless worth

in useless brains

magic runes

without a meaning

besides the dark

there should be nothing left

Bridge

Ref.

(Solo)

Outside they say death is waiting

but it creeps down through the shaft

finds pleasure in our helpless fear

fills empty rooms

with morbid thought

they've locked the door

and hold the key

sitting beside you

when silent screams

changing my mind and dreams

oh, it's never ending

Bridge

Ref.

I'M ALIVE!!!

 

A Past And Future Secret

Oh, I haven't been here for a while

in blindness and decay

the circle's been closed, now

My song of the end

I've seen it all

Listen crowd

I'll tell you everything

though I have to say

I don't know much

talking about a past

and future secret

most called him once

and future king

far back in the past

I saw his ending

long before it started

I knew his name

he's the one who took the sword

out of the stone

it's how that ancient tale began

I hear it in the cold winds

My song of the end

I had seen it in my dreams

my song of the end

I can't stop the darkening clouds

I feel cold

when I cry out for the bark

take him back to Avalon

dwell on for a new age

so long sleep well my friend

take him back to Avalon

I will wait and guard

the future king's crown

My song of the end

it was nice but now it's gone

my song of the end

it was fixed the whole time

my song of the end

I saw it all

 

The Script For My Requiem

Hallowed be the fatherland

god he knows

how long I'd been away

from here I did start for a search so

full of decease

I still hear my cryouts

from the old cellar's inside

Born in the days of medieval

my inner voice

is always asking why

I came from nowhere

without a task, without a name

no fear of evil

fate, so god please lead me through

forgotten realms

mysterious dreams

in sunless rooms I'd sworn

I'll finish what I started, once

I'll find my holy grail

in the holy land

Ref.:

Returning of the miracles

it's my own requiem

the jester's tears

they are inside me

agony's the script for my requiem

Returning of the miracles

it's my own requiem

is the script already written

jester's tears I cry

yes, I cry

I went out of my mind

in desert lands

insanity's pawn

out of control

much too long I've been isolated

from my thoughts

enclosed by the leader's spell

bewildered to marc

as a glory knight

and I tried

Still I hear the scream of thousands:

"Crucify, crucify

Take it all

our gold, our home, our life,

but we didn't kill your Christ!!

Reach out for your holy grail

enslave us and make us

your god's sacrifice!!"

Ref.

(Solo)

Still I'm confused

if I was dreaming

too late I realized

I'd been another fool

I pay the price

Returning of the miracles

it's my own requiem

the jester's tears

they are inside me

agony's the script for my requiem

Returning of the miracles

it's my own requiem

is the script already written

jester's tears I cry

 

Mordred's Song

I've lost my battle before it starts

my first breath wasn't done

my spirit's sunken deep

into the ground

why am I alone

I can hear my heartbeat

silence's all around

See hat will rise

so don't come closer

fear your child

born with a king's heart

but fate fooled me

and changed my cards

no one asked if I want it

if I like it

Ref.:

Pain inside is rising

I am the fallen one

a figure in an old game

no Joker's on my side

I plunged into misery

I'll turn off the light

and murder the dawn

turn off the light

And murder the dawn

Nothing else,

but laughter is around me

forevermore

no one can heal me

nothing can save me

no one can heal me

I've gone beyond the truth

it's just another lie

wash away the blood on my hands

my father's blood

in agony we're unified

I never wanted to be

what they told me to be

fulfill my fate then I'll be free

god knows how long

I tried to change fate

(Solo)

Ref.

(Solo)

I plunged into misery

I'll turn off the light

and murder the dawn

turn off the light

and murder the dawn

 

Born In A Mourning Hall

In fact it was close to a real fallout

everything's under control

the speaker said with a serious smile

behind his mask

he knew the truth

I'll bring a new age of better ways

the TV preacher said

just pay today

pay today

World's dressed in black

on earth's judgement day

and I?

I know it can't go on

forbidden signs increase

I'm sitting still at home

and watching

Ref.:

Born in a mourning hall

pale clouds feared the unborn child

then it grew up with growing plans

of suicide

born in a mourning hall

shadows left the fear inside

that Peter Pan will never reach

the other side

It's frightening

exciting to sit at home

and watch the burning fields

get

hypnotized by the TV snake

Obey and work hard

and feel no anger

just sympathy for the higher class

there's no chance in changing things

cause I am

Ref.:

born in a mourning hall

silent cries ran out

when the cradle breaks

broken dreams were unheared on

the other side

born in a mourning hall

shadows left the fear

in the new born child

that Peter Pan will never reach

the other side

(Solo)

And I'm a part of the machine

a puppet on the strings

a rebel, once

now I'm an old man

Oh, I know this can't go on

but the ghost called fear inside

lames my tongue, my nerves, my mind

eternal fall down

someone cut the strings off

I can't move

to get back courage

I've to face the truth

but not today

goodbye

Ref.:

Born in a mourning hall

caught inside a web called life

the only way to get out soon

is suicide

born in a mourning hall

pale souls built a frozen world

infected brains

will never reach the other side

the other side

 

Bright Eyes

Fool just another

fool just another

...

I've been waiting

for signs of god

create- enslaved- behaved-

everything is out of control

Leave me alone

isolation bears hope

there's something else waiting

a promised destiny

freezing me

I feel restless and low

these days full of sadness

had joyfully changed

into fear

My freakshow will start tonight

don't miss the right time

Ref.:

Bright eyes

blinded by fear of life

no Merlin is by my side

everything is out of control

everything is out of control

in my future plans

everything is out of control

no one's left to hurt

everything is out of control

sorrow's gone away

Broken memories

walking upstairs

step by step

I see the whole world burning

the poet dies in Neverland

how it burns

Hey, mother stubborn

I really hate you

if you say yes I will say no

ashes to ashes

but dust won't be dust

if you go there

I will go back

Ref.:

Bright eyes

blinded by fear of life

betrayed by sunrise

bright eyes

blinded by fear of life

no Merlin is by my side

Hey, father stubborn

you're ying

and I'm young

I feel alone

who really cares

Born into ashes

to lose all the games

with a smiling face

Ref.:

Bright eyes

blinded by fear of life

and dark dragons rise

bright eyes

blinded by fear of life

no Merlin is by my side

So I sit still in my room, today

winter's here

in summer's season

shall I say

I was wrong

if I'm right

farewell to my last hope

 

Another Holy War

I am god

the only one

I will bring back

freedom to your heart

you won't believe

that blind can see

no one else before me ever knew

the way to paradise

for another bloody crime

I shall return

I am your light on through the night

Ref.:

Why am I born

will I fail to rise again

another crucifixion for

another holy war

can't stop what's going on

(repeat)

Sooner or later you must understand

my words bring freedom

and rescue for man

what else,

to call me your Messiah

oh, I wish there could be another way

cross and nails are already prepared

my sell out

waits till I'm crucified

I will die before my vision ends

Ref.

(Solo)

Wait for the dawn

to take me away

what will be if I fail

another golden calve

never, never ending

pain and agony

hit me, nail me make me god

Ref.

 

And The Story Ends

And the story ends

insanity said coldly

still waiting for the chance

so out of nowhere it will rise

oh, and another journey starts

by the call of the moon

was it really me

I saw in the mirror screaming

I swallowed hate and lies

through a thousand cries

someone's sucking out my energy

Bridge:

What can I do

on this road to nowhere

Heart of dragon lies

at the edge of time

Ref.:

And the story ends

insanity said coldy

still waiting for the chance

so out of nowhere it will rise

oh, and another journey starts

into insanity's claws

Come with me and join me

a new life's waiting for you

jump through the mirror

leave fear behind

no matter where I tried

the candlelight seemed

lost forever

before my vision ends

-cathedral

-falling tears

We're not alone

there's someone else, too

from the mirror's other side

reflecting the cruel part of your soul

it's time for your choice

Bridge

Ref.:

And the story ends

insanity said coldy

still waiting for the chance

so out of nowhere it will rise

oh, and another journey starts

by the call of the moon

(Solo)

Heart of dragon lies

Bridge

Ref.(1st)

I'm not a king

I'm just a bard

how can I trust

if there's good and bad

the wounds of life

they will remain

at least I found a friend
