Lyrics

1. BLOOD ON THE SNOW

They made us many promises
More than I can remember
But they kept only one
They promised to take our land,
And they did.

On December 29th1890
On a cold winter’s day in the Badlands
Chief Big Foot and his people were camping
On the snowy banks of Wounded Knee Creek

They were believers
In the Ghost Dance
Never surrender
Lakota warriors

On this cold winter’s day in the Badlands
Colonel James Forsyth was leading
7th Cavalry Regiment to the encampment
Carrying with them four Hotchkiss guns

The only good Indian
Is a dead Indian
There’s only one way:
Manifest destiny

Blood, blood
Blood on the snow
No life will be spared
No one will survive
Blood, blood
Blood on the snow
Merciless massacre of the innocents

The soldiers went into the camp to disarm the Indians
When they refused to hand over their guns
The troops opened fire and within minutes
More than 200 Lakota lay dead on the field.

They were believers
In the Ghost Dance
There’s only one way:
Manifest destiny

Blood, blood
Blood on the snow
No life will be spared
No one will survive
Blood, blood
Blood on the snow
Merciless massacre of the innocents

My heart is sick and sad.
From where the sun now stands,
I will fight no more forever.


2. NO HEAVEN/NO HELL

You’re not a religious man
And you will never be

If you were a religious man
You’d think god has deserted you

Turned his back against you

No afterlife
No spirit here
Nothing
There’s no Heaven/no Hell

No ghosts
No saints here
No god
There’s no Heaven/no Hell

You’re not a superstitious man
And you will never be

But today for once in your life
Just this once

You wish you were wrong

Is this the end
Of everything?
I’m lost
Is there Heaven or Hell?

Where do
We go from here
When life is over?
Is there Heaven or Hell?

Where do we go from here?

Time is running out
The end is near
Can’t you see
There’s no Heaven/no Hell?

Why do
We live in fear
Of god
If there’s no Heaven/no Hell?

No afterlife
No spirit here
Nothing
There’s no Heaven/no Hell


3. FLY AWAY

I’ve been jailed for so many years
For a crime I didn’t commit
Confined within four walls
Deprived of my liberty

Far beyond the reach of endless skies
Far beyond the reach of endless skies

Fly away, spread your wings
Fly away, reach the sky
Fly away, spread your wings
Fly away, reach the sky

Never will I escape from this place.
It’s only in my dreams
That I can let my spirit fly
To the outside world.

Far beyond the reach of endless skies
Far beyond the reach of endless skies

I just want to close my eyes,
To fly away, higher and higher,
To flee from my misery
And be free at last.

Far beyond the reach of endless skies
Far beyond the reach of endless skies

Fly away, spread your wings
Fly away, reach the sky
Fly away, spread your wings
Fly away, reach the sky


4. THE WEREWOLF

A strange incident occurred last night
The dead body of a woman has been found

Naked, and covered in blood,
Her throat and chest having been cut

She had bites and claw marks all over her
As she had been attacked by wolves

Can someone please tell me
What’s going on?
Why am I, when the night comes,
Howling at the moon?

Can someone please tell me
What is happening to me?
Why am I roaming alone
Howling at the moon?

Do you hear the call of the moon?
Lunar attraction, lunar attraction
It’s growing on me, I can’t help it
Unleash the beast within, unleash the beast

I know I can't win this battle
Inner struggle, inner struggle
The beast is overshadowing me
I am no longer myself, no longer
I am no longer myself.

Several people claim to have heard
A woman screaming in terror
As the howling of a wolf
Tore the night apart

A horrendous creature
Half-human half-wolf
Had been seen running away
From the scene of the crime

Can someone please tell me
What’s going on?
Why am I, when the night comes,
Howling at the moon?

Can someone please tell me
What is happening to me?
Why am I roaming alone
Howling at the moon?

The metamorphosis has begun
Who am I? What am I?
I’m turning into something else

I can’t remember
What I did last night
I can’t remember where I was

What have I done?
Why there’s blood on my hands?


5. CURSE OF THE VAMPIRES

The sun is going down
Here comes the night
All is silent
Slowly she falls into sleep
In his castle
In the crypt
Soon the master will awake
From his sleep

Close your eyes and free your mind
Leave your body to the night
There’s a full moon in the sky
The Prince Of Darkness will arise

We the creatures of the night
Are the victims of a deadly curse
In order to survive
We need to drink human blood
We are no longer alive,
But we’re not dead, we're the Undead

Hidden during the day
We only come out at night
If we came in contact with the sun
We would burst into flames
When darkness falls upon the earth
Reign of the vampires soon will begin

Close your eyes and free your mind
Leave your body to the night
There’s a full moon in the sky
The Prince Of Darkness will arise

Come into my arms
In a deadly embrace
Feed me with your soul
To be reborn you must die
And then we will never part
Forever and ever our love will last

Close your eyes and free your mind
Leave your body to the night
There’s a full moon in the sky
The Prince Of Darkness will arise

Bonded, bonded by blood…


6. DARK IS MY SOUL

When the night comes
When darkness falls upon the earth
All kind of evil creatures
Come back to life

Evil is at work
In the darkness of the night
Evil is at work
Face your fears
Stand up and fight!

There is a secret war going on
A war between angels and demons,
A war involving monsters and ghosts
We humans are stuck in the middle

Some of us had to become hunters
To protect normal people from harm
In a never-ending battle
To fight the evil surrounding us

In my quest against evil forces
I’ve been to hell with Lucifer
He tried to take control of my soul
But I managed to escape from him

Now that I’m back, broken and changed
He still haunts me endlessly
No matter the cost, I won’t give up the fight
I will never let the devil win

Dark, dark
Dark is my soul
Dark, dark
Dark is my soul

I spent years in hell torturing souls
To escape being tortured myself
I still feel this pain inside me
I wish I couldn't feel anything

This burden of guilt is on my shoulders
I'll never be at peace with myself
Still the war goes on and on
Will it ever be over for us?

Dark, dark
Dark is my soul
Dark, dark
Dark is my soul

Evil is at work
In the darkness of the night
Evil is at work
No more fears
Carry on the fight


7. MOTHER EARTH

They came to conquer
And dominate
Claiming this land
To be theirs
Desecrating our sacred land
Spreading terror
And devastation
Poisoning the rivers and soil
Taking anything for granted

Mother Earth
Doesn't belong to us
We belong to her
Mother Earth is sick
She needs to be healed
Or she’s gonna fight back
And destroy us

Air, fire, water
Are spiritual forces
Treat them with respect
Treat them well
They have been mistreated
They have been abused
They have been asleep for too long
Soon the elements will awake
They will take revenge
Unleash their fury

Mother Earth
Doesn't belong to us
We belong to her
Mother Earth is sick
Slowly she’s dying
Why don’t we hear
Her cry for help?

Mother Earth
And when they are gone
There will be nothing left
Mother Earth
But still we will be there
Until the end of time


8. DREAMCATCHER

Another lonely morning,
Another lonely day.
I’m wandering aimlessly through the city.

Moving like a silent shadow,
A stranger amongst strangers,
I feel like I don’t belong to this place.

In this concrete jungle
Sometimes the sky’s so grey
That I can hardly see the horizon.

Like an eagle with broken wings,
Like a tree which has lost its roots,
I’m an urban Indian.

Dreamcatcher,
Save me from my nightmares.
Dreamcatcher,
Take away the pain.
Dreamcatcher,
Protect me from evil.
Dreamcatcher,
Take away, take away the pain.

People from my nation
Were born in the plains
Where the wind was blowing free.

There were no enclosures,
No walls around them,
To restrict their horizon.

They were living in peace,
Living in harmony,
Before the white men came.

It was a long time ago.
So many moons have come and gone
And no one seems to care.

Dreamcatcher,
Save me from my nightmares.
Dreamcatcher,
Take away the pain.
Dreamcatcher,
Protect me from evil.
Dreamcatcher,
Take away, take away the pain.
