Pray for Doom

(Act 1 – In great parts inspired by and adopted from the poem of E.A. Poe) Take this kiss upon the brow - And in parting from you now You're not wrong - You who deem - That my days have been a dream Yet if hope has flown away - In a night or in a day In a vision or in none - Is it therefore the less gone All that we see - All that we see or seem Is nothing but a dream within a dream A dream within a dream - Just a dream within a dream I stand amid the roar - Of a surf-tormented shore And I hold within my hands - All these grains of golden sand How few - Yet how they creep - Through my fingers to the deep While I weep can I not save - One from the wave - Pitiless wave (Act 2 - As envisioned by G.P.M.) And tonight we'll meet again - In a tide of dreams that never end Neither alive nor dead - And tonight we'll laugh and cry We'll unite and say goodbye - Fade away and stay

And her voice she calls to me - Come and free me from this house Only you can set me free - I know that you can hear me now And her siren song I follow - I am drawn on through these gates I must free my love from sorrow - In this house where fate awaits Love made me blind - I'll exchange her soul for mine I am doomed - Hell I'll find - Here beyond the veils of time I fall prey to her tricks - I am branded 666 On my hand - On my forehead - Burns the mark Love made me blind - I've exchanged her soul for mine I fell prey to her tricks - Now I am branded - Branded 666 Through the halls and up the stairs - Tears of grief flow through my soul In her room she's waiting there - Finally I lose control On this doomed November day - My love took my soul away In this haunted house I'll dwell - The thirteenth ghost reborn in hell

I was born much too late - But the feeling's inside There's a dream deep within - Hiding from the world outside In my eyes there's a gleam - And you know what I mean For you've seen what I've seen - A paradise for every being And the music takes me back - To a place in time On the wings of the winds of freedom Hear me sing - Flying free above Soul ascend to my inner kingdom - Rise - Woodstock child Hear death scream - In times of war But love shall live - And conquer hell forevermore Call me naive - Peace - Take my hand Just listen to your heart - The child inside will understand

No more words - No more reason No more tears and nothing left to fear No more dreams - The final season All these years now find their end in here When all is said and done - Dark kingdom come All hope and laughter gone - And silence won Wait for the end - With a sweet taste of ruin Pray for the end - With a sweet taste of pain Wait for the end - With the sweet taste of ruin on your lips Hear death call your name No more hell - No more heaven No more guidance - Alone you travel on Solitary - Solemn journey Welcome to the black - Oblivion Relax - Let go - No reason to fight anymore

I won't dream - I won't long for things unseen There's no need - For one more time to bleed Not again - Step aside - Avoid the pain I can't take the blame again Ignore the blinding eyes and see - Beyond the veil cast over me No longer gold that turns to rust - No longer faith to dust Shame on me - Shame on you - Shame on you Pray for me - Pray for you - Pray for doom Years of grief - Nothing left - No hope - Belief I have failed - But I won't fail again I have changed - Now I live with all the pain And I know all love's in vain There is no guiding light for me - I feel so numb - Can this be real Feel out of time and out of place - I hate the human race Pray for doom Into the ground - Into the soil - Into the grave

In my head - Chaos reigns Cacophony inside - Tortured brain I try to scream out loud - And yet my voice is drowned Silence dead - There's always noise Tearing up my mind - A helpless toy Agony - No pause - No end A wretched living corpse - With head in hands I try to scream out loud - And still my voice is drowned To the sound of the banshee wailing - To the tolling of the bell I dance like Vitus danced to hell - Oh no To the sound of the madman (banshee) screaming To the beat of their drums of war To the songs of the orchestra bizarre - I fall - I fall To the sound of the orchestra bizarre And the noise goes on and on And the orchestra it plays - It's time to end the fucking pain

I lie awake in the night - Afraid to sleep - I dream I am trapped - I'm not able - I can't move or scream Demonic voices they call me - I sense doom There's someone here with me - Inside my room - Who are you Like lead on my lungs - The fear of suffocation it chokes me My eyes they still see - In panic a deep sense of terror fills me My blood boils - My heart bursts - My soul in hell - Paralysed by... Sleep well child - In hell child - I'll take you down with me A threatening presence of evil - Incubus - Intruder Hallucinations - Strangulations - God help the sufferer My breathing rapid and shallow - Unearthly being sitting on my chest I collapse - Delirium - Paranoid 'til my last breath

Come - Wipe the tears from your eyes - There's no need to mourn Now that I finally have died - Like I've been born Nothing I fear anymore - A desperate longing To go where I've been long before - The abyss is calling I have become - A shadow that travels beyond I have become - A memory that's leaving undone I have become - A spirit that's fading away I have become - A love that has died yesterday Come my son - Carry me To the place where you want my grave to be Come my son - Bury me Father winter - Take my soul to thee Unchain this old weary soul - The burden of mourning Now that my winter has come - So long it's been dawning Free from the chains of your love - Forgotten - I'm fading Drawn to the darklands below - The final death waiting
