The Eye of Time

Here comes the legend of a mystical place Hidden away from prying eyes Faceless, nameless guardians keep Their dark secret there. You can never see it, you can never touch it You can never understand it! No evidence, there are only Softly whispered words. Hall of doom Ancient gods The Eye of Time.

Father Godthart, the First Guardian:] The time the ages – they're waiting for me Like a book like pages – and I will read them all They'll show the secrets I've never seen before Hesitation and regret are all behind me now Don't want me to stay away I've got the chance I have to try Eye of Time - you are mine Take me where I want to be Eye of Time - you are mine I've got the key Eye of Time - you are mine Show me what I want to see Eye of Time - you are mine You own my mind My thoughts, my feelings they're rushing all around The work that I've done at last pays me the price I found the only path that leads to new dimensions Maybe there's no way back, maybe it's a one way ride Don't want me to stay away I've got the chance I have to try Eye of Time - you are mine Take me where I want to be Eye of Time - you are mine I've got the key Eye of Time - you are mine Show me what I want to see Eye of Time - you are mine You own my mind My thoughts, my feelings they're rushing all around The work that I've done at last pays me the price I found the only path that leads to new dimensions But there's no way back, maybe its a one way ride

[Father Aurelius:] What did you think When you turned against the nature? You broke the rules, the law that the Gods created How can you say That your science is the savior? You can't bring back all the things that faded Don't forget the words. "Everything is fixed and you can't change it" Why do you believe In a false imagination? You should know the time is not your servant Don't be so proud Of your terrible creation! It's madness to believe that you can rule it Don't forget the words. "Everything is fixed and you can't change it" You're leaving all the world behind For making real your dream But I'm afraid you have to fall I wish that I could hold you back But you don't hear my scream Out there you'll be alone No one to call - to save you What did you think When you turned against the nature? You broke the rules, the law that the Gods created Don't be so proud Of your terrible creation! It's madness to believe that you can rule it You're leaving all the world behind For making real your dream But I'm afraid you have to fall I wish that I could hold you back But you don't hear my scream Out there you'll be alone No one to call - to save you

[Son of Aurelius:] I've heard too many lies I don't want to hear them anymore All those family ties Just hide from me the truth Like a big, black wall Cousin of son: I tell you now What I can recall I saw him with dangerous men Before he left us all They stood around Like holy chosen ones I asked him who they were? He said: "The Guardians" It's hard to understand What happened to him at that time Try to find a man I think he was his friend Maybe he's alive I tell you now What I can recall Find this man he knows much more About your fathers fall Don't be afraid His place is not so far But are you sure you're ready to know? The truth is so bizarre Those were so troubled times He was twisted by hazy ideas But I saw the fear in his eyes And one day he went away [Son of Aurelius:] I know this road I follow the trace I'll find this man I need to know What was my father's fate I don't turn back And I'm not afraid They say it's a forbidden path But I don't care

[Son:] Strange, that we meet again I recognize your face You brought me my father's book The memory from the old days I want to understand What he wrote to me Sit in this chair, and drink some wine It will help you to speak Oh, trust in me Oh, speak to me That was the day in 1773. That was the day the 17. of February [The old friend:] I try to recall the past When he came to this town I've never seen him before But I felt that he was so down It was so sad to see As he stood there alone I don't know why he chose me And I won't know nevermore Oh, nevermore Oh, nevermore That was the day in 1773. That was the day the 17. of February He gave those things to me And when I asked him "Why?" He said: "I've got a son I had to leave him behind Should I not come back In the next few days I want you to give these to him On his 21st birthday" Give me your word Give me your word

[Son:] I'm so far from home The search goes on and on The old man told me how to get here Finally I arrived on a stormy night I had to lie about myself But they believed me and took me in their lives But there's something they try to hide There's no time to waste I must investigate No one knows my father's name He has never been in this monastery The monks turned away when I asked about The Guardians of Eternity I feel they lie to me But a few days ago I saw a secret room I want to know Why didn't they let me inside I wonder what they try to hide Shadows int he candle-light Please, help me to hide away God, hear me pray Dark night, pouring rain Blood boils in my veins I climbed the wall, I broke the window And now I'm here in this hidden place A scriptorium, it's full of treasures Hopefully I'll find the missing trace A book behind locked doors It's just like mine That's what I saw These two books almost look the same I became a thief so I must run away I found a map int he stolen one It will show the way God hear me pray

[Son:] Pictures and strange unknown words I wonder what they can say A language that I've never heard But I have to try to solve this mystery No way I can make it alone I need someone to help My mind is cold like a stone Strange calm that I've never felt My old friend who taught me before In my childhood years Together we can open the door Together we will find the key [The linguist:] After two long, sleepless nights The secret I still can't unfold There are so many never seen marks Though I'm a linguist I can't break the code Only traces can I give to you Only some little parts Use them to find the truth My mind slowly turns into dark One piece means nothing at all Try to collect them now It's a puzzle, make it whole I'm so tired I can't help you more [Son:] Pictures and strange unknown words Where do they try to lead me? Strange concern between two worlds I collate the pieces to unfold it Maybe there is another way But it's so insane The guards didn't just keep the gate They played a dangerous game Maybe "Gate" stands for the "Eye" And the word "Keepers" means "Guardians" What if they could rule the time And use it to travel there and back? But it's all so weird... Can anyone tell is it real or just imagination?

[Son:] It's the land of nowhere Dark side of the Earth Strange horizons Endless desert I walk on colourless fields With lifeless stones around Hopelessness in my heart Dark thoughts in my mind God, which way I have to choose Pleas give me the answer God, give me something I can use Just send me a sign I think of my home My childhood dreams Why did I leave them Now I can't explain

[The archabbot:] You've come to me And I see it in your eyes That you need some help But you want to hear no more lies So big pressure on you What you've been through No one else could ever do And now I'm afraid That you have to face The darkness, the most evil place Oh, you should beware But you don't care About all my fears No, I won't hold you back But watch your steps It's a long and dangerous path And the end of this journey Yes, it could be The end of your life I can't imagine What awaits you there When you arrive I know you're strong But you can't be prepared Fort he Evil Eye You can find your dreams Over the hills A godless horde In a satanic church They keep that thing They keep it from any search Don't ask me for more I've said it before I don't know what they use it for Some call it the Eye They try to hide Until the end of time If you reach their gate They won't hesitate They will take your life I can't imagine What awaits you there When you arrive I know you're strong But you can't be prepared Fort he Evil Eye I pray to God to bring you back here Safe and sound To keep your soul When you're on the devil's ground

May the Lord go before you to show you the right path. May the Lord beside you to embrace and protect you. May the Lord be behind you to guard you from the treachery of evil men. May the Lord be below you to catch you when you fall and free you from the net. May the Lord be in you to console you when you are sad. May the Lord be around you to defend you when others attack you. May the Lord be above you to bless you. May the good Lord bless you.

[Son:] Well at last I see much clearer now But I need someone to tell me how to carry on my way It's the first scene and I'm here again I'm looking for the librarian To help me find my way Here's the book I give it back But you must help to understand what it's all about The Guardians, the Eye Of Time The solution I still can't find There are so many doubts [The librarian:] I can't see the truth How could I help you You'll must move on When the time has come I've heard about an order So far away from here I've heard about their leader This creature frightens me His name is Father Godthart I saw him once before I felt in him there's something evil Something wrong I don't think you see much clearer now I'm sorry I can't tell you how To carry on your way I suggest you stay here for the night Relax until the morning light Don't you run in vain

[The Eye of Time:] Stay close to me And you'll see all my secrets Wait patiently and when the right time comes Open the door that will lead you to a place You've never seen before But you know how to name Forget your fears, don't be so paralyzed Now everything's so clear, just go ahead through me I know what you feel, I know your reasons You want to heal this dying universe Don't care about what the unbelievers say They don't understand it They can't follow your way You see the world Through so different eyes They're captured by the limits of their minds Just chaos all around, you're almost out of time The noise is too loud Oh, can you hear my words? The end has begun And you are the One Men's only hope When there's nowhere to run The Gods are waiting You cannot fight your fate Use my power Before it's too late

[The Guardian:] Time has come for me To pay my dues I've made a wrong decision Now I can make it right I know his name Though we've never met before [Son:] My journey ends The gate exists I saw it for myself But now I'm caught In a deep black hole God! Is there someone to help? [The Guardian:] Don't be afraid I am on your side I have something To tell you about the old days Back in time... Eighteen years ago... Dark times... Mourning and grief The said he lost his mind He broke the rules And used the Gate To bring your mother back to life I wonder why There was no trial The council's judgement was too fast They had no doubt that he belonged To the prison of unmoving past So many things I can't explain I can't read in their minds But I'm sure that he is not that kind He'd never commit any crime No one can imagine that place. No windows to look out to the world. The time doesn't exist there. Caught in a neverending moment, you are buried alive forever. I wish I could Turn time back I'd try to save him someway I just stood there so helplessly And watched as they took him away

[Son:] Set me free I need to go Where is he? You have to show The mystery of whirling time The meaning of his secret life [The Guardian:] First we have to get the key That brings you back to reality Without this you can't return Without this you have to turn back The night is falling down I think it's time to leave Somewhere in the timeless space He's suffering closed in a horrid place Save him now from the eternal pain I can't wait to see him again [Son:] I left behind my prison cell Midnight comes I hear the bell Cold wind blows into my face I stay in the shadow, I won't leave a trace This Guardian, my father's friend Is the only one who understands That I believe in his innocence And I will get the evidence When night is falling down The Hall of Doom waits for me Somewhere in the timeless space He's suffering closed in a horrid place I'll free him from the eternal pain I can make it and I'm not afraid The Gate is waiting For me to get in The Gate is waiting I'm gonna get in This is now the moment of truth I walk through the Gate The Eye of Time opens before me I reached the point of no return That's the way of fate Where does it end? Nobody can foresee [Aurelius:] You have to know what really happened... After a long, long research, the First One found the way to use the power of the Gate. I tried to keep him away but he went back in time... He made a massive chaos and that's why your mother died. I tried to save her and make everything right. But I had to realize there was nothing I could do. When I came back, his followers were already waiting for me. I couldn't tell the truth anyone, they brought me here and left me to suffer 'till the end of time... [Son:] Follow me, I know the way That leads us out of here We can break the power of frozen time I'll be there to prove you're right You can count on me Tell the council what the First had done There's nothing to fear of now Though the evil First escaped somehow Across the Gate he ran away He realized that he have to pay My father's honor has been restored The First One's place was his reward I stay with him as his right-hand man It's a dream come true I will be one of them The sun is rising again A new beginning has come [Aurelius:] I forget my mourning and grief In God we trust, in the future I believe I broke free of the frozen time I'm not alone and I won't be anymore
