Awakening this curse was the least of all my fears
If I could turn back time to free me from this crime It started back in time when something stole my mind And led me through aeons to place and time unknown I lived their life, lost in their time, without my face Take me back home from these cryptic walls I wait for a sign from my own reality I wait here in a nameless time A certain time passed by I returned to my life with memories hard to find A secret in my mind I found it out, I've learned about the place I've been Take me away to these cryptic walls I wait for a sign from this old reality It calls me from a nameless time Take me away to these cryptic walls To this desert place and this strange reality It calls me from a nameless time 2. The expedition I broke up to find this place, find those from the elder race In this unknown desert land I was digging in the sand Found these ruins, blocks of stone, older than the Egypt ones Climbed in caves, unspeakable, far down in the planets depths There were these enchanted books, pages that I've known too well Written by the aliens 'bout the way their study's been They transformed through space and time in all kinds of living minds learning this way everything how through times the culture's been And I imagined how it's been like travelling through a nameless time And I remembered how I felt when I was in a nameless time In a nameless time .... Take me home from these cryptic vaults I wait for a sign from my own reality I wait here in a nameless time 3. Finding out Although the most I knew I needed a final proof if I'd been one of them And then these pages came: My written words! So I'd been here in one of them... Take me back home from these cryptic vaults 'Cause I've been alive in this strange reality Release me from this nameless time Take me home from these cryptic vaults I'm cursed for all time in this strange reality Release me from this nameless time... |

As I walk the streets I feel no pain
there is no love or hate, can't see no certain state I'm in And a fog has laid itself on my heart like this misty morning as this cloudy day begins Still I wonder should I be afraid about what's happening and how long has it been - don't know Why did come this shadow in my head like I have lost my soul like I'm alive but dead As I walk the streets I feel no fear although I notice that there is no feeling anymore and I try to send my mind back to the time when I was able to live something to the core Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead I'm just a slave to what they've said. (this decay) Still I'm alive but I feel dead Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead I'm just a slave to when you call. (my disease) Still I'm alive but I must be dead Alive but dead can't fill my head Darkness, there's darkness everywhere You gotta help me out of here I don't want to stay alive without the capability to feel! |

I've seen it comming, it's got to be
No illusions at the turning of the century All our wishes - forever free- all destroyed because somehow we lost the masterkey Leaving my dreams far behind got no ambitions in time if only I'm so Black in mind. When there's no point in making it Black in mind. When there's no hope for love. I'm so Black in mind. When these madmen are wasting it Black in mind. i don't want to be sacrificed for a territorial war. Leave me alone. I'm so black in mind You made me want it, too blind to see that all it gave me were illusions of reality My eyes got used to the things they've seen now where's the defference between my life and the TV screen 3. Firestorm (instrumental version) 4. Sent By The Devil (...from 'Black In Mind') Spirits coming from the mind waking up my deepest horrors capture my thoughts make me blind Weird, 'cause I don't want to see the abyss of my possibilities Scared I can't look away It has come to my side Sister demon - my bride I want you. I need you and I have set you free You're always right behind me I know the devil's sent you to me You want me you need me now that I've set you free Look always right behind you You know the devil's sent me to you What has started as a longing almost is posession now It drives me again and again Put a light into your window maybe I can find a hold I run against myself 'till I find the end Sent by the devil |

Now, as I had a look at you
It took a heartbeat and I knew That the candle of my life was burning shorter You turned me 'round to face myself To make me trust in what I am Now, after all that I have done it makes me wonder I'm around Now the night has gone, better days to come All this time I have been afraid, it is not too late... All this time while we talked my thoughts collided All this time I could have seen but I was blind All this time.... I thought I'd never see the day That in myself I'd feel this way We are the meaning and we know Forever different - the same Now the night has gone, better days to come All this time I have strained my mind, waiting for a sign Time is like a river that is running out to sea We can't touch the ground, so grab a blade of straw If you swim on waves of trust you cannot even drown When you hit the shores of love you cannot die... |
