1. DROWNED MAIDEN

Lost in thought he’s wandering through the night
The moon is shining shedding silvery light
Passing the forest to the banks of the river
The sight he beholds there is making him shiver

A wonderful girl is dancing on the meadow
In intricate patterns with her own shadow
He’s rooted to the spot, she’s swirling wild and free
Her laughter sounds like music so inescapably

Flowing black hair, pale white skin
This irresistible beauty is really worth a sin
They’re spinning round and round and it is taking his breath
‘Cause what he sees in her eyes is his certain death

Drowned maiden cursed for her youth
Dancing in darkness to disguise the truth
Drowned maiden justice will be
Dancing together for eternity

Drowned maiden cursed for her youth
Dancing in darkness to disguise the truth
Drowned maiden revenge will be thine
Dancing together ‘til the end of all time


2. WASTED BEAUTY

Our eyes met just seconds as you were passing me by
But I will always remember until the day that I’ll die
Mysterious girl what have you done to me?
You touched me so deep within, nevermore will I be free

You’re like a marble statue in the hall of the kings
Angelic perfection I could almost see your wings
You are Beauty Incarnate, the Allegory of Youth
You put this pain in my heart which nothing
Ever will be able to soothe

But I wonder …
What made you give up your smile
And set this melancholy in your eyes?
What things so evil and vile did choke your unheard cries?

I saw you one more time, they had your pic in the news
They said it was no crime, no violent act, no abuse
Just something you did yourself to inflict fatal harm
Now to the weather next day:
No clouds or rain just sunny and warm

But not for me …
What made you give up your hope
When everything seemed save and sound?
You were dancing up on the rope
But you’ve stumbled and fell to the ground
What made you give up your life
And seek release in crimson revelation?
No more pain no more strife,
Imprisoned soul freed with the last exhalation

Wasted Beauty – I mourn the loss of the light
Wasted Beauty – you killed much more than your life
Wasted Beauty – nevermore will life be the same
I felt unworthy, you’re gone, I remain with the blame

Couldn’t get you out of my head, no matter how hard I tried
You manifested instead and with that I have to abide
I stopped asking questions that day
About what’s here or beyond
It won’t lead to any avail there is no one there to respond

Wasted Beauty – I mourn the loss of the light
Wasted Beauty – you killed much more than your life
Wasted Beauty – nevermore will life be the same
I felt unworthy, you’re gone, I remain with the blame

The world grew duller that day


3. ALONE IN THE DARK

When the light is gone, I’ve got just one thing in my mind
To roam the streets, the source of life to find
I’m stalking the night, searching for prey
Nobody can stop me, I will have it my way

I know what is right, but I do things wrong
Can’t hold myself, the hunger’s much too strong
Mesmerised victims, overwhelming thrill
Hate myself for that, but I always will

There are no colours in the night
Only the shades of black and white
A desperate dream is hunting me since I don’t know when
I hopelessly would like to see the sun again

Alone in the dark
Stay away from the dark
Out in the dark
I’m alone in the dark with no one beside you
Or the shadows will get you
I’m yearning to see the sun
And forever on the run

Enough is enough, I can’t bear it no longer
My innermost wish becomes stronger and stronger
Never had a choice, when this evil all started
Oh darkness goodbye, we soon will be parted

There are no colours in the night
Only the shades of black and white
A desperate dream is hunting me since I don’t know when
But now I know that I will see the sun again

A new day is dawning and it is really true
The grass is so green and the sky’s so blue
There is a happy end to this sad sad story
I will reach to paradise in a blaze of glory


4. AWAKENING

All has been silent for so long covered under snow and ice
Leafless trees stand cold and withered – nature’s sacrifice
Now melting snow’s cascading downwards
Where the seasons meet
I stand upon this mountain beholding the world at my feet

The morning sun above shines with a ruby glow
Like a mirror lies the lake in the valley down below
A sapphire tear wept into an emerald sea
And like a million diamonds dew sparkles up to me

But I won’t linger on I have to be on my way
Crossing the land on wings of noble bird of prey

Don’t you stay behind, come on and follow me –
Feel the thunder in your heart
Don’t you hesitate, just be wild and free –
Nothing can tear it apart
Feel the power of life reaching to the core –
Let me hear your battlecry
Masters of the world we will be once more –
We will reach the sky

Sunset, night is falling, the stars are rising soon
Reflecting on a glorious day I am howling at the moon
All this time of waiting, it was not in vain
Stand proud, never give in, there is so much to gain

The call is so strong I have to follow the track
And on canine paws I’m running with the pack

Don’t you stay behind, come on and follow me
Feel the thunder in your heart
Don’t you hesitate, just be wild and free
Nothing can tear it apart
Feel the power of life reaching to the core
Let me hear your battlecry
Masters of the world we will be once more
We will reach the sky
