How they dared to be such misguided creatures How they dared to be of such evil nature Spiral up to doors all sealed, no turning back Red door to Discordia Steal the stars, deceive the day (A sign of evil) They’re gone with a final warning Witness the twilight of the gods (Will they ever return?) A storm will take us and then wipe us out There’s no retreat (We’re trapped in twilight while the gods will drowse) (Gods will drowse) They’ll wait and sleep until a new dawn saves us from the dark The damage’s done The king is gone! There is war wherever I’ll roam Gods will come and gods will go The spinning wheel keeps turning Now get up, lay down your ancient faith We’re the chosen ones Come feel the change (A way), let me show a new way When you dare to walk with me Bow down and surrender The old gods, black or white To me it’s grey (A sign of evil) I hail all these non-believers Witness the twilight of the gods (Will they ever return?) A storm will take us and then wipe us out There’s no retreat (We’re trapped in twilight while the gods will drowse) (Gods will drowse) They’ll wait and sleep until a new dawn saves us from the dark Deliver your gods, they shall be slain I’m their fallen son, don’t be afraid (A way), let me show a new way When you’re gonna walk with me As one we’re infernal What’s going up, it will come down We’re here to change (There’s war in Discordia) Sure as death, we all must fade (A sign of evil) Reach for a new horizon Witness the twilight of the gods (Will they ever return?) A storm will take us and then wipe us out There’s no retreat (We’re trapped in twilight while the gods will drowse) (Gods will drowse) They’ll wait and sleep until a new dawn saves us from the dark

I’m drowning, drowning – where do I belong? Drown in shadows – I am the center of creation (The prophecy) it’s a promise to us all A Crow, a storm (Shadows will be rising soon) A Crow, a storm The Nine sing Once upon a dream ago We’re the ones you’ve left alone Don’t blame me, don’t blame me It’s my lying toad The Crow and the Hare They’ve moved further into the unknown Mark my words, they will be gone You’ll see them playing games, my dear They’ve moved along ‘Cause one day in the afterlife we’ll meet again They’ve frowning, frowning on your judgement day (They are shadows) They’re in the center of creation (The prophecy) it’s a promise to us all A Crow, a storm (Shadows will be rising soon) A Crow, a storm The Nine sing Once upon a dream ago We’re the ones you’ve left alone But don’t be afraid There’s war beyond the red door And please ignore their pleas Just break the seal Break the seal, find the red door (There’s a red, there’s a red, there’s a red door) Break the seal, find the red door (The eternal) The infernal The eternal We shall better get him back The eternal The infernal The eternal Will we ever see the light again?

I step from door to door My mind’s misguided Keep moving on and on Forevermore Was it real what I saw in the mirror? Was it fear when the end got clearer? Now as my time’s passing by What am I waiting for? Who’ll grant me wings to fly? And will I have another try? ‘Cause I would not miss my moment again Yes, I would not miss this moment my friend No one knows the answer What could have been? The edge I still fear The roads they’re leading nowhere There is no end (...no end...) Oh gods be with me Carry me along I blindness I tried to march on Mystified me Yes, it fooled me No surrender Don’t surrender I hear them calling I hear them calling Can hear them scream Don’t be late (When aeons pass your memories will fade) Even the purest one might fail Here and deceive The righteous soul And then their world will come undone (They burn, they bleed) Till the savior will break through (In between the realms they’re gathered) And from the edge of time (Once they return) (They will save us all) Now break through Recall the eclipse There is none who survived Defeat, defeat, defeat There’s no more You’ve searched for the answer The answer is creed They’re real no more You cannot get over, no more My light shall shine forever The Nine beyond the wall They’re turning They’re burning They now understand I soon will seal all doors Their stars won’t shine here anymore Their savior won’t even try He can’t remember the truth My words become real and there’s nothing they can do They may follow a plan the one had (deeply sad) They have chosen the wrong side and tried to resist All their visions and music no longer exist (in between) When the morrow will come it shall all be (In between the realms) (In between the realms they might move on) That’s when all pureness dies in vain There’s no release The infernal lord has won And forevermore, yes, forevermore (They burn, they bleed) Till the savior will break through (In between the realms they’re gathered) And from the edge of time (Once they return) (They will save us all) Now break through (Will I, yes, will I) fail to believe, my friend? What if it’s all done in vain? (Don’t afraid) Will it be me they blame? See, it’s a whole world that I’ve once condemned And I shattered it all with a thought as it seems But it all has been me as the mirror has revealed (Now reveal, now redeem) I will carry the storm (The savior’s coming home) Yes, I’ll carry the grail and I’ll wash away the pain There’s no release (The infernal lord has won) And forevermore, yes, forevermore (They burn, they bleed) Till the savior will break through (In between the realms they’re gathered) And from the edge of time (Once they return) (They will save us all) Now break through (Where do you go, where do you go from here?) (...) I don’t look back There’s more in me My hour shall come The old gods are calling ???? Then straight ahead a door appears The tyrant must go down That’s when the ancient gods return (They will return) (...)

The Hare once betrayed me And so did the Fox and the Crow Just once defied me There’s me and there’s Space Where are they? Maybe dead No one knows You can’t defy me Ride all along With me There’s no tomorrow (Now let me through and wait for my command) Don’t try to be cruel, oh, my beautiful child But how can you try to redeem the past? It’s not real as it seems (Now ride on your wave and get back to that place) Scratch deeper and deeper and soon I will be on my own The gods will ignore your end (they’ll defend the elder) The lords won’t salute you The saints they won’t save you (they’ll defend their guardian) The savior won’t heal your soul Caesar! No man’s world It’s the Ides of March Then from the ashes of eternity (A new spirit will rise) A new order shall take over Now raise the flag – the war seems over And bow your head – at dawn they shall be murdered Woes, I will not complain The further you get, the closer’s the end, dear But now I will try Come and see That things are not what they may seem It’s all written down The savior lies bleeding But he won’t surrender The scriptures don’t lie He’ll e turned around No one to blame It all goes down The gods will ignore your end (they’ll defend the elder) The lords won’t salute you The saints they won’t save you (they’ll defend their guardian) The savior won’t heal your soul Now go and get your Holy Grail And don’t forget Just once you’ll cross the border Now let the saints, the saints come marching in Whatever you’ll do, do it fast My sweet son of decay Now let the saints, the saints come marching in Transform You may pass Rearrange it Now change to betray I won’t lie While bright eyes are turning pale your sands run low Your light shines My last try It’ll soon be over No sign shall be given for ages and more You may enter first but from now you will be on your own The gods will ignore your end (they’ll defend the elder) The lords won’t salute you The saints they won’t save you (they’ll defend their guardian) The savior won’t heal your soul You’re getting your Grail But there’s no place to go Longing for a new shore Eastern winds they blow cold The saints you will bring them down The savior won’t take the crown Let my spirit fly (Let it fly...)

Now storm come closer Can feel you’re getting near Just stay invisible till it’s over But still they don’t know They’re just caught in distant memories Then these fools will fade away... They may not fear the fall They won’t be anymore I hear their silent singing We don’t fear anymore We don’t fear him Now don’t come closer Stand still, don’t interfere Don’t move or things go wrong We’re trapped in twilight Trapped in the mind of a sacrificial king And the sun won’t shine here anymore I curse the Crow, dear old friend And when time is right for changes We will salute you And a new age may begin But still they don’t know They’re just caught in distant memories Then these fools will fade away... They may not fear the fall When all the magic is gone No need to carry it along What ever the cost It will not be redeemed And whatever may come It will not bring relief In the mirror They may fail to see what is real behind There it ends and there is no return They will go down They all will have to drown Out of the dark into the grey These fools will fade away No matter what I’ve come to say These fools will fade away A storm comes closer Can feel you’re getting near? Just stay invisible, you’re no savior But still they don’t know They’re just caught in distant memories Then these fools will fade away... They may not fear the fall I know they reach out for someone Reach out for the great unknown But still they don’t know They’re just caught in distant memories Then these fools will fade away... They may not fear the fall They’ve thought it is time for changes (We will salute you) Moved on to the Promised Land (We will salute you) Now let it begin They’ve found a (we will salute you) new god

We, together, change the world forever What a cheerful sound Synchronize me, supervise me, mother No more fooling ‘round Whatever may come it shall be from the ashes He shall rise, I know And though it hurts me Don’t be surprised, dear mother Longing to see its end Don’t call it hopelessly insane (oh...) I go and grasp the grail (oh...) But in a graceful way (oh...) Illegally, my aim The grail will cross the border now (Don’t tell me that you’re innocent) (Don’t tell me it’s) divinely ordained by the saints My demons, my saviors I weep for (all of them suffered in vain) My wayward son, you might disturb me (Carry the flame...) Till dying embers will stop gleaming (Carry the flame...) There on the battlefield she sings – praise, hallelujah The Holy Grail’s on its way now (Magna eterna, magna eterna sings) (Your journey’s over) (The Holy Grail’s on its way now) Do as it’s foreseen Come and meet the king There’s no choice For the word it must be real My righteous brother Fear you soon will know So, on the fourteenth day pass over He took the firstborn sons Execute him and now act as Judas, the chosen one So after all, in vain (oh...) I’ve met him and found the grail (oh...) Cause in a skillful way (oh...) I’ll change to keep alive Eternal lie, I’ll be the one Key to life, be the eclipse Voices from the river Styx come to be the Nemesis Kiss of death Crucifix and the grail I’ve traveled far on hidden pathways (The Holy Grail...) Who would have thought that I will hold it (The Holy Grail...) There on the battlefield she sings – praise, hallelujah The Holy Grail’s on its way now (Magna eterna, magna eterna sings) (Your journey’s over) (The Holy Grail’s on its way now) (Don’t tell me that you’re innocent) (Don’t tell me that) there is a chance to be free The grail’s sent, my way ends I creep along with the shadows and resurrected He comes marching in There he is – good lord forgive my sins Once I’ve crossed the river Styx at Sheol’s gate, I know Key to the apocalypse I have sealed it with a kiss Nothing that I want to do Hades is calling Wake the witch, who’ll be the brave one? Don’t say what he’s like Full of voices comes the ninth wave Don’t say what it’s like Beyond the door There on the battlefield she sings – praise, hallelujah The Holy Grail’s on its way now (Magna eterna, magna eterna sings) (Your journey’s over) (The Holy Grail’s on its way now) (Norns are howling) (Norns are prowling)

Could not break the silence (Could not break the silence) Could not move in here (Could not move in here) How can they stay so silent? All the grief and violence For all they went through For all it breaks loose It's bursting out Fire, walk with me... Fire, walk with me The will is strong Can I show you Fear? (Oh...) Don't move Don't turn Don't come too close as I... Burn down this place My spirit will set it all on fire! Would you like to meet the tyrant in the twilight zone? Get in, don't be late And breathe in my reality But first break the silence There is more Beyond the dawn he's rising Where darkness grows He traveling in disguise Now don't look back Now you know why we set sail to new shores We will meet him Sacred mind We build a new pleasure-dome here Xanadu, oh... My Xanadu... (My Xanadu) Don't look back, just enter What I call my soul asylum Where they are playing tricks Everybody If you like to see Whatever lies beyond that golden door It seems My frequency's turned weak Try to remember me Try to remember me Then for a while We've heard the sounds of sirens You turn to stone Medusa's in your sight I tell you why Rearranged by the ages gone by You can change it Sacred mind We build a new pleasure-dome here Xanadu, oh... My Xanadu... (My Xanadu) Sacred mind We build a new pleasure-dome here Xanadu, oh... My Xanadu... (My Xanadu) Chance or predestined end Praise, hallelujah Never mind the end Fool the mall Fear the demon in disguise... Keep your secret inside Let's move on, it's time A thousand years gone by The pleasure-dome What will we hear And what will we see All a lie There's no boat There's no river No shore Journey's over Sacred mind We build a new pleasure-dome here Xanadu, oh...
