1. Rites Of Passage

(Intro)

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

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

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

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

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

12. Chant

(Outro)

1. Crimson King

Show me your banner Come show me your sign The Crimson King's eye Is the mark to reveal you are mine I am your master I will make your dreams come true I'm your messiah A twisted one as you may know

My right hands, my servants My soldiers, my tools Spread out the good news Find my children and gather them all We'll take all low men All the hatred, evil souls We share one desire A wicked one as you may know

Touched by the Crimson King Touched By the Saviour The tower falls on Judgement Day Touched By the Crimson King Touched By the Saviour Like it's been written many years ago

I am the angel I am madness I am the word I am the law I am holding truth release your sadness I am the key I am the door Release! Oh there is War and evil Whores and sinners Take my hand and I show you Where to go Call me Flagg I'm the Good Man I'm the Dark Man Take my hand and I show you where to go Release! Come take my hand To the promised land

Redeemer Deceiver The demon The man in black

The universe is void Just you and I Let there be light The stars will rise Then fall again Climbing to the top An empty room Is all there is Oh I fear it is Prophecies were made of you and I The vision's strong But meanwhile keep on falling Oh what a miracle is life An even bigger one is size It's just the way it is I fear it is It's just the way it is

Life's a wheel nothing more It goes round and around and a... I am the ageless I am "Legion" I'm your lord I will bring terror I'm a demon in disguise The thrill of a thousand Worlds dying at once But my ultimate goal Lies beyond the downfall

Touched by the Crimson King Touched By the Saviour The tower falls on Judgement Day Touched By the Crimson King Touched By the Saviour Like it's been written many years ago

2. Beneath These Waves

The ocean's beauty No longer moves my heart It's black and empty My aim's so for a part I'm madness maddened Driven by the waves of hate It's him or me well That's in the hands of fate

Somewhere deep within There is nothing left but trouble And the longing for the sweetness of revenge Somewhere deep within Let revenge be mine

Come all you mast-heads Come all you harpooners Sing out for him, well My order shall be clear All you mast-headers You've heard these words before It's your blood money This broad bright ounce of gold

Somewhere deep within I am forever Ahab And this whole act is immutable decreed Somewhere deep within Let revenge be mine

A walk through the shadows We'll soon cross the line There is one thing for sure You'll rise nevermore A walk through the shadows We'll soon cross the line Beneath these waves you'll sleep

Somewhere deep within There is nothing left but trouble And the longing for the sweetness of revenge Somewhere deep within Vengeance shall be mine

A walk through the shadows We'll soon cross the line There is one thing for sure You'll rise nevermore A walk through the shadows We'll soon cross the line Beneath these waves you'll sleep

Beneath these waves you'll sleep

3. Terror Train

I'm awake so You better feed me now I won't slow down Once we have left this town Rhymes and riddles I'm still sleepy so You must hurry Please take your seats You'll stay with me Be with me I'll be with you I'll be with you

No one really knows the pain I'm going through My final ride is almost done The world has moved on now it's time to go My final ride is almost done

Come lift my spirit up, I'm Blaine! Come lift my spirit up, I'm Blaine!

I am nothing But at train and I assume that you don't like me I'm insane but Not yet crazy I will never let you go Enjoy the ride you'll stay with me Stay with me I'll stay with you I'll stay with you

No one really knows the pain I'm going through My final ride is almost done The world has moved on now it's time to go My final ride is almost done

Come lift my spirit up, I'm Blaine! Come lift my spirit up, I'm Blaine!

I am the one I am the one The godlike terror train The superior, artificial brain Feel free to call me Blaine

I will roll on Riddle de-dum, I'm best Try me, try me, I'll never fail that test Blue's for girls and Pink's for me Cause I'm the mono Don't even dare to mess with me

No one really knows the pain I'm going through My hate will last forevermore The world has moved on now it's time to go My hate will last forevermore

Come lift my spirit up, I'm Blaine! Come lift my spirit up, I'm Blaine!

Beneath the demon moon

4. Seize The Day

On and on this is my way I've made up my mind But will I find what I search for Soon I will reach the western shore

Far behind in the distance Lie the fires of doom There's a voice deep inside me "The tower knows who you are"

The road goes on and on Tomorrow I'll be gone The road goes on and on Tomorrow I'll be gone

I hear him say "We seize the day"

Too many roads we've travelled on We seize the day Now there's one thing left to lose We seize the day Until the end we'll carry on we seize the day Now there's one thing left to lose We seize the day

All along this is my way I've better move on Pure in heart and fair-minded For strenght and truth I keep on

Keep the one that is passed on And leave the others behind All alone and without me I hear him say"We seize the day"

So stay with me we'll carry on See the winding road goes on and on

5. The Gunslinger

Songs to sing...

Song of Turtle And the Cry of the Bear Awake I can sense it Still I'm afraid Tower Road lies ahead Commala-come-ka Ka has come to me Grey old fellow If you finally failed the test What would it mean? We're getting near We're getting near Maid of sorrow Your time goes by

Fade away Fade

"Say thank, ya" for the beams are safe my friend Long days and pleasant nights for you

Save me The final chord Don't let it end like this No, not like this Tell me When things were finally getting out of hand It's out of hand

Entangled, I am captured You have put a spell on me The last in line The Gunslinger's line The sacrifice of innocence This work needs to be done Now blow the horn Hail to the gun!

Done is done Yes, there will be no taking back Every journey must come to an end All hail to the Gunslinger Praise to the Dinh and the King Beyond our reach, out of control

Save me To touch the rose it will not bring release No taking back Come save me There are other worlds But surely none like this The world has changed

Done is done Yes, there will be no taking back The word is the law Law is Ka

The end of the road lies Straight ahead it lies I'm feeling pure The end of the road lies...

The sacrifice of innocence The hailing of the gun My way was death and madness Now let the tower come

Done is done Yes, there will be no taking back And every journey must come to an end All hail to the Gunslinger Praise to the Dinh and the King Beyond our reach, out of control...

6. Love's Tragedy Asunder

Here in the shadows There's no wishing well May the Blessed one forgive me Like so many times before There's no saviour at the door It won't matter anymore

Touch me now while we reach the end, I wonder where you are right now, right now, Oh my dear

She still has sunshine in her weary eyes A bed of roses to testify my love A promise made, now I will make a try There is no power in earth to tear us apart

Love's tragedy asunder Oh, set your spirit free Love's tragedy asunder Do I believe

Deep in the shadows there's no release [I believe] Deep in the shadows you won't find peace [I believe] We live in a dreamworld, it's over now I'll take your hand, our time is sure to come

On broken wings I try to fly I'm sorry I will get it by All praise and glory, All praise and glory to love

I've buried sunlight when I shutter eyes Dead leaves to dust, the seasons bloom A glimpse of Heaven showed an angel cry Tenfold the cries of Crack of Doom

Love's tragedy asunder Wanted peace for me Love's tragedy asunder Will I be free

Love's tragedy asunder Will I be free Love's tragedy asunder Falling misery Love's tragedy asunder Do I believe Love's tragedy asunder Still I believe

7. Wicked Witch

There is a demon An evil mind Inside us Oh I know, I know We all know the rules When water will be shed The wicked witch is...

This is the end of all the miracles Farewell to you yellow brick road

Everything she is asking for It all belongs to her Now she's gone into nothingness There she waits

Still I can hear her singing in the room In the room I know she's gone I've thought "She'll never fail, All magic will be gone The day she'll melt away"

This is the end of all the miracles Still I hear her singing in the dark Truth has changed, her voice it stays the same Farewell to you yellow brick road Still I hear her singing in the dark While time goes on her voice will fade away

"They are all, they're everything, they are mine Silver shoes you're mine, you are mine, You are mine"

Hate will live on

This is the end of all the miracles Farewell to you yellow brick road

The wicked witch is dead...

8. Dorian

Amuse me Sweet son of love Sweet son of death Adore me And keep in every word I've said Time is a bitter foe A bitter foe Until the end And grace is like you my friend My handsome one My handsome one

Dorian Time is jealous Time is pain

The gods will give The gods will take Youth will wane As age will gain We'll turn into ashes Like ashes will turn into dust Will turn into dust Will fade will fade will fade

Dorian Oh how sad it is Time is jealous Time is pain

Oh how cruel For me to know Each breath will take beauty away If I stayed young and the picture turned old For that I would give everything

When our eyes first met I should have left the room I was growing cold and pale Fatality The picture's a mirror But to whom does it belong?

Oh I damn the day On that beautiful morning Am I modern sinner Or an ancient god Pray I pray Is there anything as pure as hate For the prayer of my pride it has been answered I can't free myself From the spell of words The twisted limbs, the gaping mouth, the lifeless eyes Forever we are gone You shall stay with me I wonder if there's heaven I wonder if there's heaven There's nothing left of me

Dorian Oh how horrible All the damage you have done Dorian It's your beauty Time will take

9. Down Where I Am

Isn't it great to see how life begins Things may change, let the joy begin Can you hear this new life crying Breed it out, it will be worth it Show me your newborn smile

(Please tell me why) I don't wanna hold you (Please tell me why) I don't wanna see you 'Cause even your smile hurts Oh it hurts like hell

Isn't it good to see how life begins There's no sin and there's no crime Down where I am there's no bitter end at all This bitterness is endless, keeps going on and on

I don't wanna hold you I don't wanna see you Even birth can bear disgrace I don't wanna hold you I don't wanna see you Or even the smile upon your face

I fear my heart and fear my soul And all the things that are unknown There's a chance things will turn wrong, my friend Far too fast I'm losing ground Well, let's face it here and now You're not wellcome you should know

I fear my heart and fear my soul Life goes on it surely will Without me it will wither Will I ever see light again Will I ever see light again Oh life goes on

I don't wanna hold you I don't wanna see you My tear of joy turned into grief (I don't wanna stand it anymore)

Down where I am that's where darkness rules The silence shall be only friend

10. Immigrant Song

оригинал: Led Zeppelin

Ah, ah, We come from the land of the ice and snow, From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands, To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah, We come from the land of the ice and snow, From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore, Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins, For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing
