When the moonchild is crying
And silence has broken The darkest truth The things she remembered Had never been her own Replicant or human I know the way to show What do I see What will I find Know the answer inside It's your last step Ref.: Time what is time I wish I knew how to tell You why It hurts to know Aren't we machines Time what is time Unlock the door And see the truth Then time is time again Whispering These dreams were never mine It's cold inside It's gone forever The things he saw Who can say what's wrong or right The vision of a free life His eyes had seen it all For what He's asking The vision, vision, vision I know it's all a lie I'll remember his past life And I'll remember time What did I see What have I done God I knew the answers When he felt so tired Ref.: Time what is time Come lock the door don't let me in I am the one Your destiny Time what is time Reality - It hurts me so When time is time again (Solo!) Look into my eyes Feel the fear just for a while I'm a replicant and I love to live Is it all over now Only these years I'll leave but I'm singing Ref.: Time what is time He saw it clearly it's too late It does not heal but it lets us forget Time what is time We'll never know So don't take care Then time is time again Should I forget The way I feel God he knows how long I tried Feel there is no reason to cry I live my life In fortune dreams forever |

Many songs I've written
About the things I saw My inner soul's a wasteland I can't run away from here Try to find them All the lost thoughts in my mind I woke up on a hill So many times before Yesterday seems like a dream no more Frozen memories laughing They don't let me find the truth Am I born to be a king Or a jester of the fools Ref.: You're the mystical old bard on your journey through the dark Mystical old bard Your journey through the dark I can't remember my name I never knew how to find my home I can't remember my name come tell me where will it end I'm the chosen one To perform all these things But not for me In illusions and reality I'm on my journey through the dark I'm on my journey through the dark Ref. (Solo) I can't remember Will I ever find myself The distance is growing My hope has gone away A flash of light but nothing changes When will it end Which part of me remains Soon I'll be back On my ferryboat of tales Where oblivion reigns It will take all of me Ref. |

I am lost in the black chamber
There's no way to turn back It takes me down forevermore And death would be so sweet I'm possessed by the old creature Who had planned all To take my soul Too late for me In my hands It liest I thought But I failed Now he's in me My soul is lost In his black chamber I'm gone |

The giant's lost
And all round him Destructed for what They all knew what it meant But they couldn't change it Lord they had gone too far Leave them alone It's all gone What is left behind On a desert we called earth When they asked we went away Did they ever see the tears Don't fear Your last step From the theatre of pain And the children will love Your singing From the sea The sea is calling Now we've to leave it The sea was clear On the day I was stranded Answers I'd known To keep this all alive But I can't change it Forever (Solo) Now I'm gone And it seems that life had never existed So we left the dark and cold All I left behind are my tears Don't fear Your last step From the theatre of pain And the children will love Your singing From the sea The sea is calling I hear them calling |

By the ruins he stands
And he's waiting for me To enter Tanelorn His paths seems strange But they're always planned Seldom he succeeds About his own fate He tries to conquer it Again and again But at last he's almost A ruined man Not a king or God Who's searching for A place called Tanelorn Far beyond your dreams Ref.: On our quest for Tanelorn We lose our way On our quest for Tanelorn He's waiting He's waiting for me He's waiting He's waiting for me (Spiritus sanctus - vita aeterna) Darkness falling down on me Darkness - The eternal battle rises I know the answers Although they don't exist I'm just a mortal illusion Ref. (Solo) So I'm his companion Through space and through time His eternal servant He's calling me So I must leave To any life To another world Far beyond Your dreams To know the truth Just for a while He's longing for a place Where he can find himself Deliverance It could be everywhere How can he find He's waiting for me And for Your Tanelorn Ref.: On our quest for Tanelorn We lose our way On our quest for Tanelorn We lose our way On our quest for Tanelorn We lose our way On our quest for Tanelorn We're left alone |

Taste the poison
Feel that this is life Hallowed be the game Of life and innocence God's waiting for him Join us at the road to fate There are no two paths Feel the pain Which steps into his life Agony He'll be crucified Death awaits Knocking at his door Agony Leave him The clock will strike the end Hell or heaven Reflect and fade away Ref.: Ashes to ashes, dust to dust The life clock strikes and You obey Like a candle light that fades Ashes to ashes, dust to dust When the life clock strikes You will obey Time isn't here to stay Ashes to ashes, dust to dust the life clock strikes and You obey A light shows the right way Morning is whispering in my head Too late to say goodbye Too late The last breath's done Deliverance at all he's born to find this end I am the one The one who's calling Obey my call to the cemetary And don't be afraid To step into the dark Be sure that my voice will take You home Ref.: Ashes to ashes, dust to dust The life clock strikes and You obey Like a candle light that fades Ashes to ashes, dust to dust When the life clock strikes You will obey Time isn't here to stay (Solo) No hope he'd waited so long This can't be God's will He surrendered long ago There was no real chance Ashes to ashes and dust will be dust Ashes to ashes, you all will be dust again The clock had struck the end Up to heaven Reflexions fade away Ref. (1st) Taste the poison Feel that this is life Hallowed be the game |

I came from far
Beyond your reality The ocean of time It's the odysee of mine I am the narrator And now I'll tell you Where I've been And what I saw And how it ends Welcome to the wasteland In a world which is turning faster Where I'm alone for a while It's turning faster Away from light straight to the dark The march of time it has begun I'm caught in an ancient dream so bright And then the march of time begins The man in black he waits Behind this last task It's full of pain To sacrifice the only son The legions of the lost Wait in the old mine They try to stop me The battle it has begun So I'm not afraid To walk down to the wasteland I'm so alone on my way And I don't fear That dusty godforsaken path Somewhere far beyond Ref.: Somewhere far beyond The march of time it has begun Somewhere far beyond your reality And then the march of time begins Look at my soul And behind There are some things I've to hide from you I'm following the black man I'm losing control And I don't care What's happening to the boy Welcome to the new world One more step to the dark tower And my whole body's in flames I'm looking for Those healing things to be prepared The march of time it has begun I'm caught in a prisoner's dirty life And then the march of time begins The prisoner did bring the healing spell The queen of shadows found herself in pain And death brings answers to us all What will I find When the dark tower appears Will it be the end Or just a new quest after all I am the narrator And now I'll tell you Where I'd been And what I saw And how it ends (Solo) Ref. (2x) Look around and see The world is turning fast Faster day by day Somewhere far beyond I'll try to change it if I can Somewhere far beyond There's only one chance and it lies Somewhere far beyond Somewhere far beyond The march of time it has begun The march of time it has begun |

Spread Your Wings
by Blind Guardian Sammy was low, just watching the show, over and over again. He knew it was time, he'd made up his mind, to leave his dead life behind. His boss said to him boy, you'd better begin to get those crazy notions right out of your head Sammy who do you think that you are? You should have been sweeping, at the emerald bar. Spread your wings and fly away, fly away, far away. Spread your little wings and fly away fly away, far away. Pull yourself together, 'cause you know you should do better, that's because you're a free man. He spends his evenings alone, in his hotelroom. Keeping his thoughts to himself, he'd be leaving soon. Wishing he was miles and miles away, nothing in this world, nothing, would make him stay. Since he was small, had no luck at all, nothing came easy to him. Now it was time, he'd made up his mind, this could be my last change His boss said to him now listen boy, you're always dreaming, you got no real ambition, you won't get worried for. Sammy, boy don't you know who you are? why can't you be happy, at the emerald bar? (So honey) spread you wings and fly away, fly away, far away. spread your little wings and fly away, fly away, far away. pull yourself together, 'cause you know you should do better, that's because your a free man. come on honey (fly with me)... |

In 1945 the year it came to be
Their fate decided many miles accross the sea They told them not to fear, they couldn't be prepared. Then came the day that not a single soul was spared. Too late there's no escape The Trial has begun Down they fly From out of the sky Feel the radiation burn! The men of power had nothing to fear. When the finger hits the switch they're far away from here. Down in their sanctuary, their hiding in their lair. The sorcerers of justice will be waiting for them there. Too late there's no escape The Trial has begun Down they fly From out of the sky Feel the radiation burn ! I saw the people running through all my dreams. I heard the soldiers crying, Mother Nature screams. I saw destruction falling from out of the sky. I heard the Wise Man calling ... WHY? In 1945 the year it came to be Their fate decided many miles accross the sea They told them not to fear they couldn't be prepaired. Then came the day that not a single soul was spared. Too late there's no escape The Trial has begun Down they fly From out of the sky Feel the radiation burn ! |
