Orphanage

the cold
thinking back, remembering, my tale seems so unreal
I'm closed up but the time has come to reveal

anxious, also ignorant, my investigative mind
and led me there and led me to be so blind
haunted are the mountains, I plead for your restraint
or hope for men's survival will be faint

all my days are nightmares and memories haunt my brain
my former mind of knowledge has gone insane

you'll never hear this twice 'cause
once I had seen
the sheen that filled the sky
soon I'd die
the mounts drew the bounds
and I climbed one step too high
soon I'd die

the cold that had entrapped my heart is bound to freeze my eyes
the truth that seemed on our side
had covered all with lies
take off my hands, take off my feet
take off my ears, rip out my tongue
but don't hurt my mind, don't hurt my sense
don't hurt my intellectual powers

what is frozen you don't feel
what hurts is what you lose
but at this moment I gave up
the ice had blown my fuse
made out of cold, made out of fear
God's will attracts, God's will is here

all had begun, when led by fear, right at the end of the world
high in the sky, here at the end of the world


2. Five Crystals

evil roams the land of my dreams
onslaught is the onset of coma
ancients chase the crystals of black
magic is the secret I keep
searching in the land of my dreams
gazing in the eyes of my dying consciousness
I have to grasp the last stone
failing means I will never awake

slowly I drown in my sleep
hoping my brain will awake
my last crystal will fall in their hands
leaving me to die alone in my sleep
ride!

I hear hooves pounding
I see his mask, it's black !
I try escaping but I can't move
I'm doomed
sword !
flesh !
blood !
kill !
die !

sun will rise for you again now ...


3. The Crumbling

what are you, where do you come from
your appearance hits me like a bomb
the words I say seem to stammer my mind
all you do makes my spirit wind

from your head to your feet it's all fine
and your eyes shiver down my spine
make my day, make my life worthwhile
you must teach me again how to smile

how to cry how to feel what's inside
and to know that I'm dignified
I want love but I do want pain
come to me 'cause I am insane

I take the step now
we know what to do
you understand my call
it's the crumbling of my denial

no one sees how we play this game
slowly we fan each others flame
we want love and we sooth our pain
we feel fine 'cause we are insane

screaming out, see my rage
feel my flesh, thickened by my age
hear the tone of my call
it's the crumbling of my denial

you will be mine !


4. Veils Of Blood

In the beginning I read the signs of decay
I was not to know what would come over me today
At the arrival of the train my body arrived
It could have been me and my mind was revived
The key of solutions is right in my hand
I've seen the tomb in which that urn stands
My coming days are ruled by death
Maria, why these veils of blood?
Or am I of that little faith?
As I struggled through the corridors of my overactive
imagination, or paranoia as some might say,
the ultimate truth overwhelmed me:
Like a fly in a web she had trapped me
I am doomed...doomed...


5. Sea Of Dreams

Unknown paths of the mind, gloaming spheres of consciousness
reveal the second face of your life
When you please the soul, you'll be unfolded
but serenity is lost
as you fall into confusion of your mind
Dusk you'll see!
Sail the sea of dreams

Vision immortality, escape the destiny of your real life
Would you like to be drowned in sleep forever?
Join me and stay then darkness will remain
and drain your consciousness
Then you'll see the world from beyond
--coward solution, easy way out
Real life ignored
--fantasy taking over now
Mirror the past
--get a life or wake up dead
What do you fear?
--is it your mind or life you dread?
I think it's you!
The sea of dreams, its currents take you from the shores of existence
Fail and dream
Fail!
