Traveler In Time

The Morning Sun of Dune

The Morning Sun of Dune

The holy war's

waiting for

The morning sun (3x)

The morning sun of Dune

there's no tomorrow

the apparition of this land and it's dream

makes me feel I've seen it before

I can taste there's life

everywhere you can find

in the desert of my life

I see it again and again

And again, again, again, again

dark tales has brought the Dijahd

like whispering echos in the wind

and I'm a million miles from home

Ref.:

Traveler in Time

knowing that there's no rhyme

The morning sun is near

first light of dawn is here

the morning sun is near again

The Fremen sing that

their kingdom will come

and I'm the leading one

battlefields on our crusade

filled with Sardokaurs

killing machines crying

in raising fear they're hiding

Where do we go now?

So where is the way?

When I'm a million miles from home

Ref.

(Solo)

The morning sun I feel

all pain and sorrow

the apparition of my words in these days

makes me feel I've told them before

all my plans will come true

I'll control destiny

in the desert of my life

I've seen it again and again

By my dreams I must find a way

to stop the raging war

I've to choose now

I will leave

my body and seek

and time will stand still

when I've to leave

my body and find

a way back to the world I love

when I'm a million miles from home

Ref.

 

Welcome To Dying

Close to insanity

beyond the realms I've been

at darkest places

I'm crying

"The dragon flies"

Something savage

is yearning for me

I'm waiting afraid for the night

what will be

I've lost myself

a few days ago

it's touching my soul

and a vision of past dreams comes true

Ref.:

Welcome to dying

I don't let it out

Welcome to dying

Look to the mirror it shows what I am

Welcome to dying

This town must burn now

Welcome to dying

Can't You see the dragon's seed bears in me

The one who's been before

many times I terrorized this town

many times and here I start again

now I'm stronger and so cold

cold as ice

returning is my destiny

now I feel it's growing up in me

now I feel it's burning deep in me

I'm not what I was before

could I stop this dream

I'm a stranger to myself

and I cannot control

Ref.:

Welcome to dying

I don't let it out

Welcome to dying

Look to the mirror it shows what I am

Welcome to dying

Can't you see the dragon's seed bears in me

Welcome to dying

The dragon's breath I don't let it out

(Solo)

I'm a savage

it's too late for me

the other side's taking control and I know

there's one way I can walk alone

or the dragon will fly

and a growing fear's all that I feel

Ref. (1st)

Welcome to dying (6x)

Can't you see the dragon's seed bears in me

Spread my wings and fly away

I spread my wings and fly away

I spread my wings and fly away

 

Lord Of The Rings

There are signs on the ring

which make me feel so down

there's one to enslave all rings

to find them all in time

and drive them into darkness

forever they'll be bound

Three for the Kings

of the elves high in light

nine to the mortal

which cry

(Solo)

Ref.:

Slow down and I sail on the river

Slow dawn and I walk to the hill

And there's now way out

Mordor

dark land under Sauron's spell

threatened a long time

threatened a long time

Seven rings to the gnoms

in their halls made of stone

into the valley

I feel down

One ring for the dark lord's hand

sitting on his throne

in the land so dark

where I've to go

(Solo)

Ref.:

Slow down and I sail on the river

Slow down and I walk to the hill

Lord of the rings

 

Goodbye My Friend

Who can tell me who I am

who I am my friend

I'm an Alien so they say

a risk to everyone

NO - Tell me what do they see

NO - Tell me what do they feel

NO - Tell me what do they fear

NO - Tell me what do they see

I'm a dwarf but I know more than You

and I'm the key to a better life

from terror I could escape

but I need your helping hand

so far from home where I'm left alone

Did You hear my crying?

Did You hear my crying?

Ref.:

Goodbye my friend

I found you at the end

I say Goodbye to all

Goodbye my friend

thanks for your helping hand

I say Goodbye to all my cries

just say Goodbye

No returning nevermore

No returning nevermore

And I'll remember

Communication to you is so strange

you I trust to no one no warmths reach your heart

to you I'm the stranger but you're strange to me

You destruct all what is unknown to you

We are together now

and don't you know I'll come back again

I must go now

Ref.

(Solo)

I will go home now

I will go home now

much too long I'm forced to stay

in visions I see

so dark and so deep

mankind will destruct all life

See you again I hope I will

see you again at the end?

My tortured soul cannot forget the pain

now I find my way back

I WILL GO HOME NOW

I WILL GO HOME NOW

Ref.

 

Lost In The Twilight Hall

Awaiting my last breath

The mirror calls my name

it's showing me the way

into the dark

the bridge appears

I jump into the dark side

and hear the voice it's cold as ice

"Welcome to reality"

Where am I now?

Darkness surrounds

can't go forward

can't go back

I see planets dying

I fall into the light

a new universe awakes

I'm a Traveler in Time

pray for the light

Where's the key

to the gate

of a new life - no

I search for deliverance

but I cannot find

Ref.:

Look behind the mirror

I'm lost in the twilight hall

once I'll be back for a moment in time

that's when the mirror's falling down

Take me away

from the place I've been

to another life

in another world

a sign of life

surrounds me now

the bridge appears in the dark

I'm free

I fly alone

leaving the darkness now, forever?

the memories of children

and the wisdom of many lifes

burns deep in me

Where will the light go to?

Where will the light go to?

Is this deliverance?

Is it the end?

Ref.

(Solo)

I'm back there's a new chance for me

and all my memories are gone

I can feel what's happening to me

and the mirror will burst

Ref. (2x)

 

Tommyknockers

She's opening here eyes

to find the thing

by a touch she's lost

it's waiting for her a long time

the kingdom's lost

cause there's one nail missing

playing with fire

turn of the light

and she'll fall down

playing with her life

but she can't leave it

there's one rhyme in her brain

Ref.:

Oh, last night and the night before

Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers

knocked at your back door

Tommyknockers

The pain in my head

the cycle awakes

I'm on my way to Oz

I want to drink and she wants to dig

she's in trouble oh I know

there's something going wrong

Tommyknockers on their way

What's up in "Leighton Street"?

Ref.:

Oh, last night and the night before

Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers

knocked at your back door

I'm the hero, I'm back

with weapons and with magic spells

I'll seddle every task

an old, ill and drunken guy

The moon is full of blood

I've found her not, not far from home

I should better get away from here

she's on her way to be another one

playing with fire

she can read my thoughts

it's too late

playing with her life

Tommyknockers brought her trouble

(Solo)

The ship in the earth I touch

a vibration is filling me

and music in my head

nose is bleeding

and my fall down

filled me up with pain

you'll be like a Tommyknocker

I'll be like you

but there's something going wrong

I read it in your face

Ref.:

Oh, last night and the night before

Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers

knocked at your back door

Tommyknockers knocked at your back door

Tommyknockers knocked at your back door

 

Altair 4

At Hilly's show

they didn't know

that the Ending of "Being" is near

I can feel their voices

the old man cries

"Please save the boy

he's caught in a world far behind

from home"

Monster Anne is crying out

"Feel my pain I can't escape"

Bad chances for me

Ref.:

Altair 4 (3x)

Chosen by their whispering words

What is left behind?

When purple colors turn to black

Can you feel it?

Is there time?

Can you see it?

Is there life?

"Fly away and dream"

 

The Last Candle

Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind (4x)

Have you forgotten him

Far from the land

Where the sun is born

down in the wood "Caledon"

Do you know the place

where the light is never seen

and all the hopes are turned

by the final cry

Turned to stone (4x)

Whispering tunes in the wind

Our hopes are gone with the night

when the old man will never come back

remember his words and his songs

And we see the raven's flying in the distance

But no wizard's singing his song

Ref.:

Somebodies out in the night

I fly in time

The last candle will burn

there's hope for everyone

when the last candle burns high

oh it's time for life

The elves and gnoms have to hide

when the moon is showing it's face

and raging orcs will set their traps

and the forest will burn

they hate green trees

and love the dark

they don't understand

that they're caught and left alone

they feel the magic in the wind

they're just fear the old man's song

(Solo)

Ref.

Corrupted old gnom

betrayer of all

you know so much about all

what is your price

"Too much, too much

you cannot pay with your silver and your gold

there's just a little chance to save the wizard's life

there's just a little chance for all you fools

now pay"

And so I walk across the land

and hope to hear the wizard's song

Ref. (3x)

Somebodies out there

I feel there's somebody

Somebodies out there

I feel there's somebody

 

Run For The Night (Live)

There comes the last part and end of our old age

With thunder and lightning the dark lord is taking

The crown of the whole world

His creature will kill me and poisons my soul

To the end I will fight but I know that the things

That I do are so meanless - Oh, no!

I see the hill but it's so far away

I know I can't reach it

But I try it again and again in my dark dreams

He's waysting my last will how long can I stay here

When the mightiest of all will now

Ref.:

Run for the Night burn away

The times of his fall I've to pay

Visions of darkness prepared for the last strike

Bloodlust their weapons and madness you see feel their

Eyes there's no way out

I'm lost in a dark dream and losing control

To the end I will fight but I know that the things

that I do are so meanless - Oh no

I see the hill but it's so far away

I know I can't reach it

But try it again and again in my dark dreams

He's waysting my last will how long can I stay here

When the mightiest of all will now

Ref.

You see them running in the shadows of the night

It is not what it used to be

They've been scared and they've been anxiously tonight

You them running with the wind

They

Run for the night

Run for the night

Run for the night

(Solo)

Ref. (2x)
