1. Sacred Worlds

The realm's bleeding
It suffers –
Old and weak

No further arguing
There is war at hand
The system's failing
Engine's running

Then after all
I sense the end is dawning
These lunatics deny the truth

I know I will not fail
There'll be
War
It's now or never
We shall stand together
One by one
This world is sacred
I'm coming home
War
It's now or never
We shall stand together
One by one
This world is sacred
I'm coming home

Coming home

You chase in twilight
And you know
You will be on your own
On your own

The misery shown
I'll be alone in this hour
I face the unknown
Witness the end

I'm bleeding,I'm fading
Here in my final hour
When long lost memories return
And a voice keeps calling
"All dead and gone
It'sout of hand
Life is in motion"
I'm wishing,I'm fading
"Time to wake up
Face the truth"

I'm sinking
I'm drowning
There's no doubt and no regret
"Time to reveal now"
This is no illusion

It is real
Carry on the flame
It's not over now
Watch me,I will rise
Time to reveal now

I know I will not fail
Anymore

I'm the one forever
All that really matters
Blessed realm
This world is sacred
I'm coming home
War
It's now or never
We shall stand together
One by one this world is sacred
I'm coming home

Yesterday's gone
There's no today,no tomorrow
I'm raised from the dead
The ritual failed

There at the gates
I'm left alone in this hour
Driven insane
I am left alone

And now I drown in deepest shadows
While the golden hall is sealed
I'm wishing
I'm fading
And I'm part of the machine
My eyes are the eyes of a dead man
And feel the unholy stream

The source of my power
T-energy
I'm in control

I will live forever
All that really matters
I'm the one
This world is sacred
I'm coming home
War
It's now or never
We shall stand together
One by one
This world is sacred
I'm coming home

I spread my wings
But keep on falling
I should have Known
I can see it coming
The war is over
There's whispering in the wind
Just let me out of here
There is no way
There's no end
While all the suffering goes on
All that I know
Is that I'm not insane
It's not over

2. Tanelorn (Into The Void)

I travel a dusty old road
And carry on ultimate terror
The torture will grow
While infinity's lost
The lunatic fears the unknown

Into the fire
Curse me
Unknown
Into the fire
Everything is gone

Did I miss the point
Or fail to see
That I am lost
Cause I'm chosen

Crash another tower
Grind the universe
I'll tear it into pieces
Mourn forevermore
And here I...

Cry for Tanelorn
Still I fear the voices
Cry for Tanelorn
No more fear, no voices
Cry for Tanelorn
Into the void this journey ends
I cry for Tanelorn
The dawn comes crashing down
Into the void

My locked up asylum
Don't turn your back
On your prodigal son
When terror is raging
Still my hate will grow

Here on my own
I've built a pyre
Oh, fire
Here on my own
I've wasted life
So weak

A dark sword
A black soul
My soulmate gets near
Deceiver
Deceiver

I'm banned from the island
Refuse me, deny me
I'm pale and I'm weak
Now I don't belong here anymore

Cry for Tanelorn
Still I fear the voices
Cry for Tanelorn
No more fear, no voices
Cry for Tanelorn
Into the void this journey ends
I cry for Tanelorn
The dawn comes crashing down
Into the void

The trouble of many I've seen
It's coming to an end
Here's my last stand
The torture at last
Will be gone with the past
Infinity, where I'll go?

Into the fire
Curse me
In war
Into the fire
Everything is gone

It's your blood I desire
The last soul I require
Right after all the damage will be done
And here I...

Cry for Tanelorn
Still I fear the voices
Cry for Tanelorn
No more fear, no voices
"Feeding my void
Feeding my void
Here at the edge, I claim your soul"
Cry for Tanelorn
The dawn comes crashing down
Into the void

Stormbringer
All hail Stormbringer

3. Road Of No Release

Ahhhh... Ahh ah ahhh...
Ahhhhhhh...

Dead girl:
Please, sister, wake me up
You've traveled far
Release my mind
Sing this song of mine
Save me from drowning
Quick, cast your spell on me
I sense you're finally getting near
Can you hear me crying?
I've got to break the silence

The lover:
I know they're out there
Play hide and seek
Watching
My love is wasted

The storyteller:
My worst dreams
I can't leave them
I'm the black queen
Here in barren lands

The fox:
When you walk down
You may not find relief
Will you go down there?
I wonder
Wonder why

All:
Here in this road of no release (road of no release)
Pale reign of misery
That even time cannot erase
On through my sorrows
Life will go on

Dead girl:
Words and dreams unite
I hear an ancient voice
It's calling for me
When death and life collide
I hear an ancient song

The resurrected girl:
Deep inside
I can't find myself
Can't remember at all
The past and my strange end
Come guide me now
Can't remember my fall
There's something
There's someone
It ain't over now
The void – there's more to it
It's real and still alive

The necromancer:
I will find you
Slipping away
I'll bind you
Still I conquer the world
Ohh! Take him away... Ohh!

All:
Here in this road of no release (road of no release)
Pale reign of misery
That even time cannot erase
On through my sorrows
Life will go on

The fox:
My last steps
Can't leave her
I, the old fox
Will take revenge

Old man:
I cannot heal your fear and doubts
The void, it waits for us
Still, after all the ghosts are howling
You cannot run, you cannot hide
The void, it waits for us
Still after all there is no choice

All:
Here in this road of no release (road of no release)
Pale reign of misery
That even time cannot erase
On through my sorrows
Life will go on

AHHHHHHH!!!!

The girl:
Find me, I'm drowning
Then once again
There's nothing left I fear
There's nothing more to say
And no more games to play
To play...

4. Ride Into Obsession

Come, I'll show you the end
You're damned
'Cause no-one can defy me
Just watch these maddened creature
Like you they all once reach out
A war to win
But I'm gonna burn this vision down

Call me the father of lies
Just watch these saddened creatures
They've turned you into the savior

You'll hold your ground
Until your last breath
You'll twist then turn
And now you're falling down

The battle rages on
And forever and ever
The wheel will turn

Let ages come and go
The wheel will turn now
The wheel will turn
Another ride into obsession
I am reborn
The wheel will turn now
And I'm driven to obsession

All these dying men
Try to understand
They all followed the sign

It's the cycle's end
There's no hope
For a while
From the ashes arise

Can't save her
Enjoy the flames
so precious, so pure

And you try,
You're sure to fail
And madness
Is the price you've to pay

Unholy grounds
Witness your last breath
The cycle ends
And you're stumbling again

We will go on and forever and ever it's raging on
Now they just come and go (The Wheel will turn)
The wheel will turn, now you ride into obsession

I am reborn, (the wheel will turn)
The wheel will turn and I'm driven to obsession

Through the flames you see me,
You'll be mine, believe me
This is the moment I will fall

Wake up the storm to face it
Right now a land lies bleeding
It's me, I conquer your soul

I'll be on my way
Oh light, let me out here, I pray
And over and over and over again
There is no beginning, no end

This war ensnared us all and forever and ever I will return

Now they just come and go (The Wheel will turn)
The wheel will turn, now you ride into obsession

I am reborn, (the wheel will turn)
The wheel will turn and I'm driven to obsession

5. Curse My Name

The tenure of kings and their magistrates
By good men it must be deposed
The covenant made can be voided at once
Disanoint him, take his crown

They plead for their king
And they pity their lord
Put him to death, that's why I say

Though never so just these dancing divines
Endue him with reason and grace
They're gibberish
Words dissemble the facts
God's will
They falsely will claim

Let him curse my name
On these blood stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name
But remember the truth

So there they come
From everywhere
Their witness revenge
Hear them calling
"You're laden with blood
It's spilled everywhere
And sorrow's everlasting

Oh you'll be aware now
That trial is near
It's close at hand
The masquerade is over...
It ends...

Ahhh ahhh ahhhh...
Ahhh ahhh ahhhh...

Remove his crown
And bring him down
Remove his crown
And bring him down
Now we shall mourn no longer
Our prayers they've been heard
Now we shall mourn no longer
Our prayers they've been heard
(We won't take it anymore) There's no more league
That will blind us to the tyrant (We won't take it anymore)
Our voices shall be heard
Cause we won't take it anymore
(We won't take it anymore) There's no more league
That will blind us to the tyrant (We won't take it anymore)
Our voices shall be heard
Cause we won't take it anymore
And we're one we are the nation (We won't take it anymore)
And we're one we are the law (We won't take it anymore)
And we're one we are the nation (We won't take it anymore)
And we're one we are the law (We won't take it anymore)

Falsely they praise
Deify his majesty
"He's blessed the anointed's
Fulfilling God's will"
Curse them all
No further he's king
Providence brought him straight into our hands

Let him curse my name
On these blood stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name
But remember the truth

Now let him appear
There's joy in the air
Now witness a new age is dawning
In trouble alone
He's facing despair
Awaiting his bitter ending

We all know he's guilty as charged
By punishment due to his crime
We sacrifice the wicked king
Acknowledged by scriptures and law

Let him curse my name
On these blood stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name but remember the truth...
On these blood stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name but remember the truth...

We won't take it anymore
Our voice it shall be heard
We won't take it anymore
But I will remember the truth
We won't take it anymore
Our voice it shall be heard
We won't take it anymore
But I will remember the truth

6. Valkyries

To the gods of the north I pray
And raise my cup for the fallen ones
Then I cry
In Valhalla they sing

Rain
Red blood keeps pouring down
Come Valkyries, join me on that final ride

Here I lie bleeding
Odin, I await thee

The battle rages on

New lines they're weaving
The future, the past and the present
They're one
They will reveal their mask
To show me a way to survive
This bitter war

Soon it will be over
He will be the one
We'll weave in
And terror will now rule these lands

When the battle is lost
And the slain ones are chosen
Valkyries will guide us home
When the battle is lost
And the slain ones are chosen
Valkyries will guide us home

Destiny
A spinning wheel
The path of glory
Round and round
Come join us
On your final ride to Asgard
Let's move on fast
Allfather awaits
So let's heed the final call

For now
We leave this world behind
It's over

All glory to the brave

Still blood will rain
Through storm and fire
Let war winds reign
It's the feast for the crows

Follow the light, the light
Just follow the light, the light
Or fade away

Soon it will be over
He will be the one
We'll weave in
And terror will now rule these lands

When the battle is lost
And the slain ones are chosen
Valkyries will guide us home
When the battle is lost
And the slain ones are chosen
Valkyries will guide us home

We'll keep on weaving
We're crushing through lines
With our battering swords
We're marching on
Assign the brave
To survive
This bitter war

Soon it will be over
He will be the one
We'll weave in
And terror will now rule these lands

When the battle is lost
And the slain ones are chosen
Valkyries will guide us home
When the battle is lost
And the slain ones are chosen
The Valkyries will guide us home
We'll heed the final call
A call to arms
The Valkyries will guide us home

Then finally I hear them say
Carry on
For Valhalla awaits you

7. Control The Divine

For what I was
I'm doomed to be
The tempter and the secret foe
Cause I am hell and hell is me
Pure hate will grow

Still I claim to be the chosen one and
Still I claim
This is rebellion rising

First amongst equals
We're bound to no law
There's no one before us
Ethereal sons
Now disobey
Awake and arise
You'll be free

How can we take it away
From someone who has no right?
No right to control the divine
Night shall invade
Suspicion awakes
Wherefore He's greater than I

Stay silent
Until the end of the world
So just like slaves we may deem him
Dead silence
Until the end of the world
Hence from this moment we're doomed
I feel
It hurts though
Disburdened spirits we will be
I've learned my lesson
Pure and sore
An offer divine

We're far beneath them
They consider us slaves
They steal our pride
Don't trust them blindly
Cause truth they conceal
As it seems
I'll reign
Cause here in my tower
Impassioned, I'll show you a way

I can feel your hallowed rage
Now enter my realm
Awake and arise, you'll be free

How can we take it away
From someone who has no right?
No right to control the divine
Night shall invade
Suspicion awakes
Wherefore He's greater than I

Descend – just keep moving
All things shall proceed
It's freedom you're choosing
Preserve our hate
Eternalize
Awake and arise
You'll be free

How can we take it away
From someone who has no right?
No right to control the divine
Night shall invade
Suspicion awakes
Wherefore He's greater than I
How can we take it away
From someone who has no right?
No right to control the divine
Night shall invade
Suspicion awakes
Wherefore He's greater than I

8. War Of The Thrones

Nothing will grow here
Icy fields – blackened sorrow
Legacy of a lost mind
Feed my void
What you're waiting for

I'm too late
It is more than a game
The river reveals
Now I'm in between these lines
I cannot escape it seems
Sail on, my friend

All I ever feel is
All I ever see is
Walls they fall
When the march of the others begin

All I ever feel is
All I ever see is
Rise and fall
When the War of the Thrones shall begin

While I sit there in silence
Come and talk to me
I can't free my mind
It is all I'm begging for

While I sit there in silence

Will it ever end?
Will I find what I'm longing for?
Will I ever walk out of the shadows so grey?
I'm condemned, I am hallowed
Icy fields they won't hurt anymore

Will you walk with me?
Any further
There at world's end
It's me
I sing

I cannot escape it seems
Sadly I sing

All I ever feel is
All I ever see is
Walls they fall
When the march of the others begin

All I ever feel is
All I ever see is
Rise and fall
When the War of the Thrones shall begin

Away
Watch the river it flows
Now and ever
I cannot believe in more
And now my time will come
Carry on

Will I ever learn from the past?
Will I fade away?
Will I ever stay where the shadows will grow?
There is luck at the gallows
I will free my mind
Soon it will show

Let it rain
There'll be no spring
My dream is a mirror
It reveals a matter of lies

All I ever feel is
All I ever see is
Walls they fall
When the march of the others begin

9. A Voice In The Dark

A sense of denial
Come witness my trial
The crow has turned into a liar
I'll live, I may die
I've failed though I've tried
But finally I fly

It is the fool
Who puts faith in false saviors
The innocent understands
He's still falling

And furthermore
He's now aware
"Come spread your wings
Awake now"
The enemy within
Will soon appear

You're trapped in my mind
Ask for the key
Don't search for fine lines
There's no release

Though I can feel its presence
There's a sign to reveal
Then after all
I'm sure I'll keep on falling

They send a sign
When dead winter will come again
There from the ruins I will rise

Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Believe in dark wings and dark words
The shadow returns
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Black shadows they hide and they wait
But they soon will return

It will never be the same
And nothing remains
I can't find a way
But I'm facing it
Oh there will be no savior

I can foresee all the pain
They are about to creep in
"Curse me, hate me, hurt me, kill me"
Oh they will rest no longer

"Paralyzed and frozen
Free your mind
You're broken
Paralyzed and frozen
Learn to roam
Don't look back"

On stunning fields of mayhem
I will find no relief
It's just a dream
I wish that I could tell you

The vision fades
There is no sanctuary
What will go up
Surely comes down

Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Believe in dark wings and dark words
The shadow returns
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Black shadows they hide and they wait
But they soon will return

In vain
Still I don't understand
So talk to me again
Why do I fear these words?
What keeps holding me back?

I hear a voice
It comes from everywhere
"Now find a way
Cause you're the key
Begin to understand"

The descending ends
Now I know I won't fly again
On through the mist, I'm facing ground

Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Believe in dark wings and dark words
The shadow returns
Fear the voice in the dark
Be aware now
Black shadows they hide and they wait
But they soon will return

10. Wheel Of Time

Now there is no end
The wheel will turn, my friend

I'm in flames
Cause I have touched the light
It pulls me so
We shall be one
Forevermore
That's all I want
It's all I need
Everything is fixed
There's no chance
There's no choice

It's calling me
"Saidin"
So precious and sweet
My mind keeps fading away

It's scratching deeper
My sole reliever
How can I find you now?

Passing through the flames
I see
How terror will rise
It soon will be over
Of father of lies
Like foul winds at twilight
It's coming over me
Whata was and what will be?
What is?
I don't know

Driving me insane
Just feel the heat
Madness creeps in
I'll tear it down

There's no end
Wheel of time
It keeps on spinning
There's no beginning
Turn the wheel of time
There's no beginning
Just keep on spinning

Light – it binds me
Light – it blinds me
Light – it finds me
Light denies me now

I creep along
So desperate and lired
Let me ask you
Why?
I am what I am
Prophecies I am the chosen
"Taveren"
The flame will grow
Feel the heat
I'll keep on breathing
After all there's no tomorrow

Wheel of time
Save my soul, find a way
And if I fail, will it all be over?
Oh wheel of time

The vision
So fleeting and vague
Once again I will bring down the mountain
One last glimpse
It is costantly slipping away

The young man said
"I will never give up"
The inner war
I can hold againt it
My mind, my mind
My mind's in darkness

The young man said
"I will never give up"
The prophecy
Behold it's true
I conquer the flame
To release the insane
I'm crying
I cannot erase
I'm the dragorn reborn
And in madness
I soon shall prevail
Twice I'll be marked and
Twice I shall live
The heron sets my path
And name me true
Twice I'll be marked and
Twice I shall die
My memory's gone
But twice I pay the price

Wheel of time
Save my soul
Find a way
May it be as the pattern has chosen
Oh, wheel of time
Turn the wheel of time
It keeps on spinning
There's no beginning
There's no end, wheel of time
There's no beginning
Just keep on spinning

Shine on
Embrace and deny me
Turn on, wheel of time
Shine on
You've burnt me, now guide me
Wave on, wheel of time
