1. DARK REFLECTIONS

A black star fell down the night I was reborn
A last chance to save us, a last chance to turn dusk to Dawn
The vultures they cried out
Their welcome to greet my arrival
The shadows they danced for my death
At the nightmare's trial
The demons of fear tearing my sad soul apart
A horned winged creature laughed out its scorn to the dawn
The sun wasn't able to send down its light, swallowed by Thoughts in my mind
Dark was my conscience, I was the last of my kind

[Chorus]

I was dead
Awake in hell
A lonely corpse
To break the spell
A soul in flames
A heart in chains

Can't you see
You must believe...
The witchbrew was drained, I couldn't escape my fate
Wrong was this place full with awful disgrace and hate
Sweet ancient memories, fragments of times that have Passed
Came to my mind like a blessing with grace for my eyes

[Chorus]


2. UNDER THE OAK

...Deep was my anguish infor these words
They froze my blood and changed my soul
The master has spoken, the truth, not any lies
The Devil gives and evil takes
The thing in life that man forsakes
A throne in hell, a price or a sacrifice ?
Still the wind was blowing soft
And gentle here under the oak
Which gave me shelter and rest infor my trial
I'm not strong, weak is my mind
A new beginning, where to find ?
I'm the last one on earth, please forgive us our crime
It was a time, when love was mine
Now it's time to sacrifice

My heart, bleeding for my race
The traces of mankind sweeped out
By the hand of our Lord
I cried for the ones I lost
Midnight in paradise, grief
Away goes my hope
I cried for the ones I lost

Hear my prayers
Climbing on the clouds above
Silent cry
Reach the inner halls of truth
Give me a sign !

A crimson sky, bless my eyes
Up goes the sun, my time has come


3. INTO THE UNFATHOMED TOWER

(Instrumental)


4. SOMEWHERE IN NOWHERE

Here I am
In this strange world
A different universe
Nowhere in time
I'm captured in my dreams
On this lonely journey
To find the morning light
To be me
Eternal life
Beyond the death we know
A restless soul
But am I dead?

(Lost in nowhere, timeless prison

Will I ever find the reason
I wish that I could escape this dream
Can I ever return to reality)

This labyrinth
of my own feelings
A misty ocean
But where's the shore?

I know that I exist
But somehow I don't
Can't find the morning light
Can't be me

Here I am
In this strange world
A different universe
Nowhere in time

Lost in nowhere, timeless prison


5. A TALE OF CREATION

On that day, that day of birth
in the morning, the dawn of time
it down to rest a moment
when a song came to my mind
As I sat there I could feel it
from within the magic came
With my voice the mountains rose
with my breath came lovely air
With my tears the rain fell down

with the rain came the sea
With my blessing the first rose spread out
with my feelings innocence
(In solitude, a song was born
By magic our dreams were living on
A heart of light was found, it brought delight
to my soul. My faith had made me whole... again)

With my song the sun was born
out of darkness giving light
From my heart came love and joy
and all the beauty you could find

With my tears the rain fell down
with the rain came the sea
blessing the first rose spread out
feelings innocence

In solitude, a song was born

By magic our dreams were living on
A heart of light was found, it brought delight
to my soul. My faith had made me whole... again

In passion I saw the light
a soul filled with harmony
The creation of a new world
my anthem my symphony

I sat there to watch the dawn
all the birds began to sing
I left my song to rise and grow
It was time for me to go
