Open up the night
Led by just a feeling All around is light Everything is healing No more fate and no more mystery Even as time falls away I live my days Every moment and its memory Not only to survive To die alive Overwhelming love Heaven's just a feeling Singing in my blood Keeping me from kneeling No more fate and no more mystery Even as time falls away I live my days Every moment and its memory Not only to survive To die alive Die alive No more fate and no more mystery Even as time falls away I live my days Every moment and its memory Not only to survive To die alive Die alive Die alive |

The end
The songwriter’s dead The blade fell upon him Taking him to the white land of empathica, of innocence The poet ??? meadows of heaven The dreamer and the wine Poet without a rhyme A widow writer, torn apart by chains of Hell One last perfect verse Yet still the same old song Oh Christ, how I hate what I have become Take me home Get away, run away, fly away Lead me astray, to dreamer’s hideaway I cannot cry ’cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die, I, the whore for this cold world Forgive me, I have but two faces One for the world, One for God, save me I cannot cry ’cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die, I, the whore for this cold world My home was there at last, these meadows of heaven The venture filled days more with every smiling face Please, no more words Those from a seventh hell No more, please, tell me once my heart goes by Take me home Get away, run away, fly away Lead me astray, to dreamer’s hideaway I cannot cry ’cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die, I, the whore for this cold world Forgive me, I have but two faces One for the world, One for God, save me I cannot cry ’cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die, I, the whore for this cold world Whore for this cold world Whore for this cold world Sparkle, a scenery With childish lies, I fall With beauty underneath The end, I’m free Tuck me in Beneath the blue Beneath the great Beneath the ray One night reigns a journey in time See them, the light On the shore he sat and hoped Under the same belief Blue sky, the light chose you Shows you hope I’m afraid, so afraid, of being raped Again and again and again I know I will die alone, but loved You live long enough to hear the sounds of chaos Long enough to find yourself screaming And if you want Live long enough to see your friends betray you Years have I been stripped unto this altar Now I only have three minutes left to live I just wish the tide would catch me first And give me a death As I hoped for ??? Drum the ride up, Christ Join in Hell and fantasize The whole world would it take to ??? ??? run away Everyone must bury their own The victim buried their heart under stone ??? ??? The morning dawn upon this altar Remains of the dark passion play Performed by his friends without shame Screaming on his curse, they came Get away, run away, fly away Lead me astray, to dreamer’s hideaway I cannot cry ’cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die, I, the whore for this cold world Forgive me, I have but two faces One for the world, One for God, save me I cannot cry ’cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die, I, the whore for this cold world the whore for this cold world the whore for this cold world Today, in the year of our Lord, 2005 Tuomas was called from the cares of the world To stop crying at the end of this beautiful day The music he wrote, at the long pain, about silence He was found, walking, dead, with a smile on his face And one thousand pages of erased text Save me They’ve stilled my sun, your life Oh, when did you become so cold? The blade will keep on descending All you need is to feel my love Search for beauty, find your shore Try to save them all, bleed no more You have such oceans within In the end, I will always love you |

Finally the hills are without eyes
They are tired of painting a dead man`s face red With their own blood They used to love having so much to lose Blink your eyes just once and see everything in ruins Did you ever hear what I told you Did you ever read what I wrote you Did you ever listen to what we played Did you ever let in what the world said Did we get this far just to feel your hate Did we play to become only pawns in the game How blind can you be, don`t you see You chose the long road but we`ll be waiting Bye bye beautiful Jacob`s ghost for the girl in white Blindfold for the blind Dead siblings walking the dying earth Noose around a choking heart Eternity torn apart Slow toll now the funeral bells ”I need to die to feel alive” Did you ever hear what I told you Did you ever read what I wrote you Did you ever listen to what we played Did you ever let in what the world said Did we get this far just to feel your hate Did we play to become only pawns in the game How blind can you be, don`t you see You chose the long road but we`ll be waiting Bye bye beautiful It`s not the tree that forsakes the flower But the flower that forsakes the tree Someday I`ll learn to love these scars Still fresh from the red-hot blade of your words ...How blind can you be, don`t you see... ...that the gambler lost all he does not have... Did you ever hear what I told you Did you ever read what I wrote you Did you ever listen to what we played Did you ever let in what the world said Did we get this far just to feel your hate Did we play to become only pawns in the game How blind can you be, don`t you see You chose the long road but we`ll be waiting Bye bye beautiful |

Running for her life
The dark rain from her eyes still falls Breathtaking butterfly Chose a dark day to live Save one breath for me A Loner longing for The cadence of her last breath Why do I miss someone I never met, with bated breath I lay Seawinds brought her to me A butterfly, mere one-day miracle of life And all the poetry in the world Finally makes sense to me Save one death for me A Loner longing for The cadence of her last breath Put to rest all that`s not life Drink for beauty and fill my blank page Sometimes a dream turns into a dream A Loner longing for The cadence of her last breath |

6:30 winter morn
Snow keeps falling, silent dawn A rose by any other name Eva leaves her Swanbrook home A kindest heart which always made Me ashamed of my own She walks alone but not without her name Eva flies away Dreams the world far away In this cruel children's game There's no friend to call her name Eva sails away Dreams the world far away The Good in her will be my sunflower field Mocked by man to depths of shame Little girl with life ahead For a memory of one kind word She would stay among the beasts Time for one more daring dream Before her escape, edenbeam We kill with her own loving heart Eva flies away Dreams the world far away In this cruel children's game There's no friend to call her name Eva sails away Dreams the world far away The Good in her will be my sunflower field |

Heaven today is far away
To a place I once called home Heart of a child ??? As another love grows cold Once my heart beat to the Rhythm of the falling snow Like there below the river now flows A stream on mounds of magic snow For the heart I'll never have For the child forever gone The music flows because it loves For the heart I once had Given today, with all the ??? To understand the weight of the world Faded and torn, I'll never learn My weak and hoping heart For the child, for the night For the heart I once had I believe I have foreseen Everything I could ever be For the heart I'll never have For the child forever gone The music flows because it loves For the heart I once had Time will not heal a dead boy's scars Time will kill For the heart I'll never have For the child forever gone The music flows because it loves For the heart I once had |

Who the hell are you to tell me
What to do, why to do, why bother Leech in a mask of virtue Such waste, to ever think of you again Hey Judas, your Christess was our love Hit and run, your will be done Never sorry, never wrong More more more more more Master passion greed ”Hello. How are you? Let me explain one thing. All for her and more for me Why is it so hard to see? I see no sense in doing this Not enough for me I f**k up everything but let me explain.” Some day you shall flee, Panting and weak Master passion greed All within me gone but pain and hope Hoping that the pain would fade away Greed, your master passion I Feed the mouth that bites me Mammon, opiate of the masses The reek of your lies draws flies Seek her Seduce her Tame her Blame her Have her Kill her Feast on it all With awakening the tears will begin To my everlasting shame silence took me |

Meadows Of Heaven
I close my eyes The lantern dies The scent of awakening Wildhoney and dew Childhood games Woods and lakes Streams of silver Toys of olden days Meadows of heaven The flowers of wonder And the hidden treasures In the meadow of life My acre of heaven A 5-year-old winterheart In a place called home Sailing the waves of past Meadows of heaven Rocking chair without a dreamer A wooden swing without laughter Sandbox without toy soldiers Yuletide without the Flight Dreambound for life Flowers wither, treasures stay hidden Until I see the 1st star of fall I fall asleep And see it all: Mother's care And color of the kites Meadows of heaven |

A ballad of dark queen echoes through night
As he flees the curse of gods, the pharaoh`s wrath 1001 nights unseen The philosopher and the queen Ancient mariner in a sea of sand The burning beauty his tomb to die for 1001 nights unseen The philosopher and the queen Horizon`s swarming with death Run! Heaven has a darkened face Dunes are soaring, as on a chase Caravan of the cursed Chasing him across the waves May he now rest under aegis of mirage As the sands slowly turn to Elysian fields 1001 nights unseen The philosopher and the queen 1001 nights unseen The philosopher and the queen |

An old man by a seashore
At the end of day Gazes the horizon With seawinds in his face Tempest-tossed island Seasons all the same Anchorage unpainted And a ship without a name Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts The ones on their travels homeward from afar This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago The albatross is flying Making him daydream The time before he became One of the world`s unseen Princess in the tower Children in the fields Life gave him it all: An island of the universe Now his love`s a memory A ghost in the fog He sets the sails one last time Saying farewell to the world Anchor to the water Seabed far below Grass still in his feet And a smile beneath his brow This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago So long ago So long ago This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind so long ago So long ago |

The end.
The songwriter`s dead.

"I was born amidst the purple waterfalls.
I was weak, yet not unblessed. Dead to the world. Alive for the journey. One night I dreamt a white rose withering, a newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness. I dreamt all my future. Relived my past. A witnessed the beauty of the beast" Where have all the feelings gone? Why has all the laughter ceased? Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time How can I ever feel again? Given the chance would I return? I've never felt so alone in my life As I drank from a cup which was counting my time There's a poison drop in this cup of Man To drink it is to follow the left hand path "Where have all the feelings gone? Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you? Now unblessed, homesick in time, soon to be freed from care, from human pain. My tale is the most bitter truth: Time pays us but with earth & dust, and a dark, silent grave. Remember, my child: Without innocence the cross is only iron, hope is only an illusion & Ocean Soul's nothing but a name... The Child bless thee & keep thee forever" |

Born from silence
silence full of it A perfect concert my best friend So much to live for so much to die for If only my heart had a home Sing what you can't say Forget what you can't play Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes Walk within my poetry this dying music My loveletter to nobody Never sigh for better world It's already composed played and told Every thought the music I write Everything a wish for the night Wrote for the eclipse wrote for the virgin Died for the beauty the one in the garden Created a kingdom reached for the wisdom Failed in becoming a god Never sigh for better world It's already composed played and told Every thought the music I write Everything a wish for the night If you read this line remember not the hand that wrote it Remember only the verse song maker's cry the one without tears For I've given this its strength and it has become my only strength Comforting home mother's lap chance for immortality Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew The sweet piano writing down my life Teach me passion for I fear it's gone Show me love hold the lorn So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I'm sorry Time will tell this bitter farewell I live no more to shame nor me nor you And you I wish I didn't feel for you anymore A lonely soul An ocean soul A lonely soul An ocean soul A lonely soul An ocean soul A lonely soul An ocean soul |

Once I had a dream and this is it
Once there was a child's dream One night the clock struck twelve The window open wide Once there was a child's heart The age I learned to fly And took a step outside Once I knew all the tales It's time to turn back time Follow the pale moonlight Once I wished for this night Faith brought me here It's time to cut the rope and Fly to a dream Far across the sea All the burdens gone Open the chest once more Dark chest of wonder Seen through the eyes Of the one with pure heart Once so long ago The one in the big blue is What the world stole from me This night will bring him back to me |

Just once that all I need Entwined in finding you one day Ever felt away without me My love, it lies so deep Ever dream of me Would you do it with me Heal the scars and change the stars Would you do it for me Turn loose the heaven within I'd take you away Castaway on a lonely day Bosom for a teary cheek My song can but borrow your grace Ever felt away with me Just once that all I need Entwined in finding you one day Ever felt away without me My love, it lies so deep Ever dream of me (Dream of me) Come out, come out wherever you are So lost in your sea Give in, give in for my touch For my taste, for my lust Ever felt away with me Just once that all I need Entwined in finding you one day Ever felt away without me My love, it lies so deep Ever dream of me Your beauty cascaded on me In this white night fantasy (Dream of me) Ever felt away with me Just once that all I need Entwined in finding you one day Ever felt away without me My love, it lies so deep Ever dream of me Ever felt away with me Just once that all I need Entwined in finding you one day Ever felt away without me My love, it lies so deep Ever dream of me (Dream of me) Ever felt away with me Just once that all I need Entwined in finding you one day Ever felt away without me My love, it lies so deep Ever dream of me |

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The ringing of the Division Bell had begun Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway Do they still meet there by the cut There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps Running before time took our dreams away Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground To a life consumed by slow decay The grass was greener The light was brighter With friends surrounded The nights of wonder Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again Dragged by the force of some inner tide At a higher altitude with flag unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed-of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been so many times The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river Forever and ever |

For whom the gun tolls
For whom the prey weeps Bow before a war Call it religion Some wounds never heal Some tears never will Dry for the unkind Cry for mankind Even the dead cry Their only comfort Kill your friend, I don`t care Orchid kids, blinded stare Need to understand No need to forgive No truth no sense left to be followed Facing this unbearable fear like meeting an old friend Time to die, poor mates, You made me what I am In this world of a million religions everyone prays the same way Your praying is in vain It`ll all be over soon Father help me, save me a place by your side There is no god Our creed is but for ourselves Not a hero unless you die Our species eat the wounded ones Drunk with the blood of your victims I do feel your pity-wanting pain, Lust for fame, a deadly game Run away with your impeccable kin Good wombs hath borne bad sons Cursing, God, why? Falling for every lie Survivors` guilt In us forevermore 15 candles Redeemers of this world Dwell in hypocrisy How were we supposed to know? |

They came for him one winter's night
Arrested, he was bound They said there'd been a robbery His pistol had been found They marched him to the station house He waited for the dawn And as they led him to the dock He knew that he'd been wronged "You stand accused of robbery" He heard the bailiff say He knew without an alibi Tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom Over the hills and far away For ten long years he'll count the days Over the mountains and blue seas A prisoner's life for him there'll be He knew that it would cost him dear But yet he dare not say Where he'd been that fateful night A secret it must stay He had to fight back tears of rage His heart beat like a drum For with the wife of his best friend He spent his final night of freedom Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and blue seas Back in her arms he swear he'll be Over the hills and far away Over the hills and Over the hills and Over the hills and far away Each night within his prison cell He looks out through the bars He reads the letters that she wrote One day he'll know the taste of freedom Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas Back in his arms he swears she'll be Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day Over the mountains and the seas Back in her arms is where he'll be Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the sea Back in his arms is where she'll be Over the hills Over the hills and far away Over the hills Over the hills and far away |

for the poorest sacrifice I'm but a raft in a sea of sorrow and greed You bathed in my wine Drank from my cup mocked my rhyme Your slit tongues licked my aching wounds Put a stake through my heart And drag me into sunlight So awake for your greed As you're slaying the dreamer Swansong for the Wish of Night God it hurts give a name to the pain Our primr ose path to hell is growing weed Put a stake through my heart And drag me into sunlight So a wake for your greed As you're slaying the dreamer Blame me it's me Coward a good for nothing scapegoat Dumb kid living a dream Romantic only on paper Tell me why you took all that was mine Stay as you lay don't lead me astray Tell me why you took all that was mine Stay as you lay don't lead me astray Wake up mow the weed You'd be nothing without me Take my life if you have the heart to die You bastards tainted my tool Raped my words played me a fool Gather your precious glitter and leave me be The Great Ones are all dead And I'm tired too |

The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century Wistful oceans calm and red Ardent caresses laid to rest For my dreams I hold my life For wishes I behold my nights The truth at the end of time Losing faith makes a crime I wish for this night time to last for a life-time The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea Oh how I wish to go down with the sun Sleeping Weeping With you Sorrow has a human heart From my god it will depart I'd sail before a thousand moons Never finding where to go Two hundred twenty-two days of light Will be desired by a night A moment for the poet's play Until there's nothing left to say I wish for this night-time to last for a lifetime The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea Oh how I wish to go down with the sun Sleeping Weeping With you I wish for this night-time to last for a lifetime The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea Oh how I wish to go down with the sun Sleeping Weeping With you.... |

I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love I wish I had your angel tonight Deep into a dying day I took a step outside an innocent heart Prepare to hate me for when I may This night will hurt you like never before Old loves, they die hard Old lies, they die harder I wish I had an angel For one moment of love I wish I had your angel Your Virgin Mary undone I`m in love with my lust Burning angel wings to dust I wish I had your angel tonight I'm going down so frail and cruel Drunken disguise changes all the rules Old loves, they die hard Old lies, they die harder I wish I had an angel For one moment of love I wish I had your angel Your Virgin Mary undone I`m in love with my lust Burning angel wings to dust I wish I had your angel tonight Greatest thrill, Not to kill But to have the prize of the night Hypocrite, Wannabe friend 13th disciple who betrayed me for nothing! Last dance, first kiss Your touch, my bliss Beauty always comes with dark thoughts I wish I had an angel For one moment of love I wish I had your angel Your Virgin Mary undone I`m in love with my lust Burning angel wings to dust I wish I had your angel tonight I wish I had an angel I wish I had an angel I wish I had an angel I wish I had an angel |

Soon I will be here no more
You'll hear my tale Through my blood Through my people And the eagle's cry The bear within will never lay to rest Wandering on Horizon Road Following the Trail of Tears White man came Saw the blessed land We cared, you took You fought, we lost Not the war but an unfair fight Sceneries painted beautiful in blood Wandering on Horizon Road Following the Trail of Tears Once we were here Where we have lived since the world began Since time itself gave us this land Our souls will join again the wild Our home in peace and war and death Wandering on Horizon Road... x2 Hanhepi iyuho mi ihanbla ohinni yelo O sunkmanitutankapi hena, sunkawakanpi watogha hena, oblaye t'ankapi oihankesni hena T'at'epi kin asni kiyasni he akatanhanpi iwankal Oblaye t'anka kin osicesni mitakuyepi on Makoce kin wakan WakanTanka kin on Miwicala ohinni - Hanhepi iyuha kici - Anpetu iyuha kici yelo Mi yececa hehaka kin yelo, na ni yececa sunkmanitutankapi kin ka mikaga wowasaka isom Uncipi tuweni nitaku keyas ta k'u Unwakupi e'cela e wiconi wanji unmakainapi ta yelo Anpetu waste e wan olowan le talowan winyan ta yelo Unwanagi pi lel e nita it'okab o'ta ye Untapi it'okab o'ta Na e kte ena on hanska ohakap ni itansni a'u nita ni ihanke yelo Translation: "I still dream every night Of them wolves, them mustangs, those endless prairies The restless winds over mountaintops The unspoilt frontier of my kith 'n kin The hallowed land of the Great Spirit I still believe In every night In every day I am like the caribou And you like the wolves that make me stronger We never owed you anything Our only debt is one life for our Mother It was a good day to chant this song For Her Our spirit was here long before you Long before us And long will it be after your pride brings you to your end" |

Once I had a dream and this is it
Once there was a child's dream One night the clock struck twelve The window open wide Once there was a child's heart The age I learned to fly And took a step outside Once I knew all the tales It's time to turn back time Follow the pale moonlight Once I wished for this night Faith brought me here It's time to cut the rope and Fly to a dream Far across the sea All the burdens gone Open the chest once more Dark chest of wonder Seen through the eyes Of the one with pure heart Once so long ago The one in the big blue is What the world stole from me This night will bring him back to me |

The story behind the painting I drew is already told
No more tearstains on the pages of my diary Tired but unable to give up since I'm Responsible for the lives I saved The play is done (The play is done) The curtain's down All the tales are told All the orchids gone Lost in my own world Now I care for dead gardens My song is little worth anymore Time to lay this weary pen aside The play is done (The play is done) The curtain's down "Where are the wolves, the underwater moon The elvenpath, the haven of youth Lagoons of the starlit sea Have I felt enough for one man's deed? Or is it time to challenge the Ancient of Days And let the virgin conceive" All the tales are told All the orchids gone All the tales are told All the orchids gone Lost in my own world Now I care for dead gardens |
