1. Rites Of Passage

(Intro)

перевод: "Ритуалы перехода" (Lightbringer) »

2. Heaven Denies

I've stained the land
Milleniums I've prayed
Now I know there's no release

Since paradise is lost
I hold a crown
I know your name
But I am just your
Fallen angel of doom

Thus heaven denies
Refused for all times
I am not guilty at all

Deadlands, Wastelands
Darkness will cover my mind
And oblivion shall reign
I made up my mind
And oblivion shall reign through the night
Deadlands, Wastelands
Darkness will cover my mind
And oblivion shall reign

Still we are one, you and I
Realize, I did what you wanted me to

The lack of pure souls and the fading light
It's me you blame

First there was light
Then came the night
Cruel nothingness

Hope turns to despair
There's no one in these barren lands
The lust for light
I'm sure that it will fade
It will fade
Spiritus Sanctus
The lust for light
I'm sure that it will fade
Spiritus Sanctus
Eternal hell

3. Poor Man's Crusade

The Holy Ghost can't save you anymore
Your souls are condemned to burn in hell
Damned for all time
So spoke the noble one
He convinced us all
He is a gifted man
Though he will slaughter in the name of Christ

Holy and bright
He's a devil in disguise
Protector of the cross
Beware of the snake

All in all it's just a poor man's crusade
Poor man's crusade
The Holy Land home of our blessed lord
Enslaved and stained by godless hands
They shall be damned
Jerusalem
Is waiting for you
To rise once again
So we will slaughter in the name of Christ

Holy father, holy father

You'll shed your blood
Your bodies fall
That is the price you'll pay
To cleanse you of your sins
Vicious and cruel
Let's kill them all
Let's kill them all

So we will slaughter in the name of Christ

Holy father, holy father

4. Fiddler On The Green

Sad voices they're calling
Our precious girl she can't be gone
How bitter this morning
When daddy's darling
Went out and started her day

Wasn't there a dream last night
Like a spring never ending
Still the water runs clear
Through my mind
On the field I can see a fiddler
The fiddler on the green and the sad boy
I took him too early
Would you mind
Would you mind
Would you mind
If I take you

To be with you
To be with you
To be with you
To be with you

The sun seemed bright
The air was clear
The air was clear
A trick of light
Turned red into green
She saw the light
Her face was pale
Her body smashed
Her beauty's gone

Isn't it a shame
The reaper said
He is quite alone here
And still waiting for you
Oh I really did fail for the first time
Spoke the fiddler, poor old fiddler
The fiddler on the green
The fiddler on the green
It would be nice...

Take my hand

Just hold my hand
I'll take you there
Your pain will go away

перевод: "Скрипач на поляне" (Lightbringer) »

5. Blood On My Hands

And as I bear my inner soul
I've kept it hidden and safe
Fulfill the god's desire
To hold their waning flame
A sacred life

And what have started long ago
Is heading towards the end
There's no easy way out
There's blood on my hands
But I am sure in the end
I will prove I was right

Runes of a long forgotten time
Ancient spells in endless rhymes
Soon the other world appears
Roam to the ghostly river Rhine
Leave the misty shades behind
I can feel I'm getting near

By the ancient spirits' rites
The old ghosts proclaim their rights
Still they're lost in time

Lost in time
I wonder why they're lost in time
Lost in time

The curse lives on
Still chasing me
It's always been there by my side
And it won't let me out
A treacherous leaf
And a secret unsealed
It will cause deadly wounds

Roam to the ghostly realms at nights
To cleanse the dark shades of my night
Leave the mortal world behind
Float to the endless streams of time
An eternal ray of light
Leave my mortal shape behind

Lost in time
I wonder why they're lost in time
Lost in time

The blood on my hands you see
Cannot be washed away
I am chosen by destiny
To dwell in misery

перевод: "Кровь на моих руках" (Lightbringer) »

6. Path Of Glory

For ages now
I've often faced the fear
It's hard to see
Old memories are clouding my mind
It's beyond this life
I know the secrets are within me
Wonderin'
In a world of broken dreams
Depressed and haunting me
No way out
So many times it's hopeless dark and gray
No way out
And other times it's hope that saves the day

Many moments of my life I pray tomorrow
Inner peace will find its way and set me free

There's a light beyond the dark (darkest day)
There's a light beyond this life
And painful memories will all wash away
Painful memories will all wash away

No longer struggle with the fear of
The end and what's beyond
I live a life of loyalty
True to myself and my own

The way out
A sea of life so peaceful and serene
The way out
The path of life lies open wide for me

Come join the path of glory
Leave all your fear behind
Come join the path of glory
Leave all your fear behind
Many moments of my life I pray tomorrow
Come join the path of glory
At last eternal peace will set me free

Come join the path of glory
Leave all your fear behind
Come join the path of glory
Release me set me free

7. Winter Of Souls

Facing the storm
And there's no one by my side
The curse will take its toll
Is it justice or a foolish pride

As the wind is blowing cold
And the winter takes control
How can I survive

In higher lights we seem to drown
We hold the key but not the crown
In higher lights we seem to drown
We hold the key but not the crown
Look into my eyes and see
For all the wisdom I still bleed
And only willow trees will bring
Oblivion

Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
Conceived of his greed and a harsh reality
Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
Your illgotten son
Your flesh and your blood

Faith fools the day
The honest man will fail my don
Facing another wound
Can't hold back the storm
Soon the winter reigns my heart
We're both caught in agony

In higher lights we seem to drown
We hold the key but not the crown
Oh I wish that I could turn back
Reach out for the grail and find it
I would offer soul and life
Feel the emptiness my dark son

Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
Conceived of his greed and a harsh reality
Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
The sorrow he feels shall last forevermore

Feel this cold winter night
Frozen spirits in ice
Can't wash away the misery
The dark

War will take place at dawn
There's no choice it's all fate
I'm not strong enough
The path lies clearly ahead
There's no way out
Can't hold back all the greed
And all the good deeds
They are past
There's no choice it's all fate
It's so hopeless
Too long I was blind

Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
Conceived of his greed and a harsh reality
Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
By spilling our blood we are one bound
Forevermore
Haunted by the lust of my father
Revenge is mine and down falls the kingdom
Conceived of his greed and a harsh reality

8. The Whistler

Beloved mother
There is no guilt
In what I have done
It's far too late
To turn it back
To turn it back

Slowly they move
One by one
Food for the clan
Your kingdom will come
Slowly they're marching
One by one
Follow my magic tune
It is so easy
Her eyes
Her pale cold eyes
Are watching over me
I've never felt alone
All the children
For her glory

A fair price and
The deal was fixed
I did my part
And they betrayed
I cleared their problem well
But I trusted lies

All your children went astray
Pay the price for ignorance
Praise and glory to the clan
Watch your step I'll bring the end

Rats repeat their feast
Queen will be quite pleased
All your children went astray
Pay the price for ignorance
Praise the glorious race of rats
One by one they'll join their dance

Hungry souls they shall be fed
Praise the wisdom of the rats
All the children went astray
Pay the price for ignorance

Now you know fear
Face the unknown
Dwell in tears

The story's told
You may have learned
Dare not to betray
The whistler
You should consider
You might fail
You should consider
You might fail

All your children went astray
Pay the price for ignorance
Praise the glorious race of rats
One by one they'll
Join their dance

All your children went astray
Pay the price for ignorance
All your children went astray
Pay the price for ignorance
Food for the clan
Praise to the rats

9. Tear Down The Wall

Deep in the void
My heart still bleeds
Azrael

I am the only one
Here on the edge of life
Leaving this world behind
Dance on the edge of time

I think it is time now
To take what is mine

It all turns to black
A prophet or fool
Who's acting like god
As wicked and cruel
Follow my sign
As the mad gnome says
And now I'll dance
Into the sun

Tear down the wall
Let silence and madness reign
There is no future nor the past
Let us dwell in agony
Tear down the wall – I'll wipe out starlight
Let us tear it down – Let us tear down the wall

He can't hold it back
Afraid of himself
The path in his eyes
He is lifeless inside – Nothing is real
As the old gnome says
I think it is time now
To take what is mine

Tear down the wall
My madness you will follow
Tear down the wall
And don't look back
Tear down the wall
There is no future nor the past
Let us tear down the wall

The void seems like a cold asylum
I search for the last leaf
Hope, how I can find the answers
If all guardian angels are gone

перевод: "Уничтожь стену" (Lightbringer) »

10. Gallows Pole

Endless stairs
A guiding light
It seems to shine bright
But it's cold
Wicked signs will mark our way
Wicked signs will mark our way
Mark our way
Mark our way

Call me Messiah – I am god
A true lord but alone
Call me a liar – oh I won't deny
That I'm mad

Am I evil am I good
Mad existence, faith and greed

The universe a gallows Pole
Extinction of the living soul

Towards the sun we'll keep moving
Fate I hold in hand
Dancing 'til the end
I am condemned
Oh I bring all mankind's end
The end
Oh I've seen
All life die

A shattered heart an empty soul
Just one false move and it took its toll
The rising of an evil seed
I can't describe the pain I feel
Outside it's dark inside it's cold
The sun still shines bright
But its time is short

Endless stairs
A guiding light
That once was warm
But now it's bitter cold

It's freezing hearts
It's freezing souls
Soon icy shades will cover all
It pretends to be alive
It pretends to be alive
Be alive
Be alive
Be alive

Collapse of the mother
All will die
The void it frightens me
I've faced the demon
And he dwells inside

And when I laugh it's tears I hid
And when I cry it's joy inside
A foul disease has stained the land
The bitter harvest of a dying bloom
And when I cry it's joy inside
A wicked smile for all the tears I hide
It hurts to hold all the pain I feel
The bitter harvest of a dying bloom

Nothing is real
Nothing but him

перевод: "Виселичный столб" (Lightbringer) »

11. My Last Sunrise

The lamb, the rose
The don't exist
The lamb, the rose
They don't exist

These are my last words
I need to rest
In fear and anger
I'll lay down my head
A faithless spirit in a broken man

Everything is burning
Rotten flesh keeps burning
It's MY LAST SUNRISE in fear

The grail's in pieces
All the bliss is gone
The rose has dried out
And the lamb got slaughtered long ago
The hope became another lie
Like the nonexisting father god
I'll close my eyes, goodbye

Don't wait for me on the other side
Everything is burning
Rotten flesh keeps burning
It's MY LAST SUNRISE in fear
Don't wait for me on the other side

Golgotha – had seen nothing else but
A carpenter's death
Golgotha – not more maybe not even that

Suffer, grief and pain
Have driven me insane

Can't you see
There's nothing real
But you and I
And I say goodbye

Hear no evil, speak no evil
See no evil, feel no evil
Dream no evil, fear no evil
Touch no evil, taste no evil
All I see and hear is evil
All I think and feel is evil
