Requiem: Songs for...

Invocation: The gate of the eternal temple is opening, it’s so near… (I am the key…, I am the key…) I´m on the burning stairs closer to the dark horizon. On a hospital bed…. I’m losing the moments of my reality. I was a sinner tested by fate I didn´t know the value of the gift of life I was a stranger in every street And maybe it wasn’t me…………….. I´m in an endless space I can hear the beat of my heart. My failures paid for my eternity my bottomless well of sins is full… I felt young for all my life I was close to my unfulfilled dreams Pictures of the past mean a desire and dream Lead me through the way of truth; I want to be back in my life. Stay by my side I´ve to make a lot of things right Stay by my side The time for violence is gone I pray for those lives Which remained in front of the Gates I pray for those souls Whose voices I can hear every night. I can see you all, who live your lives without meaning Love for your family Hides disagreements leading to pain and losses. I am for my doom, as like you. But I have one chance to open my heart At the end, we are all the same From difficulty and disaster to the path of hope.

The members of NIM (National Identity Movement), friends, brothers and sisters to Kathrin. Under the mask of understanding, they sway in their hands the tools of annihilation the planned violence is changing the vision of revolution The reality of these days is spinning roulette wheel Removing Erin takes its toll The idea of a struggle for their own conviction Fails in attempts to declare the ideal The message engulfed in the joy of emotional motives Turns into the hunt for the renegade It’s hard leave under the threat of uncompromising attack Every time she turns round the corner She is afraid they will be there. I don´t wanna be there when they breakt through her door Every day now is the day of the rope.

I was alone in a burning house, I arrived there just in time. This was to be my last act… But my mind froze my steps. I couldn´t go on. Please take my hand And put it on the cold ground. I swear, that anything I have not seen I´ll find afterwards. And maybe one day you‘ll understand that I looked forward to this. Ref.: Where is light on my way? I´ll give the stone cold heart to fallen angel Where are their prophecy? I can´t dispose of feeling of danger. I promise, I will be praying for coming souls, theirs fates are here There are too many worlds, which I would like disclose someday. I was alone in a small town I stayed there all my life I used to hear songs of night in the cemetary And the tones of church psalms, Songs of my solitude.... Please show me the sun, I want to see Mother Earth once more. I keep seeing the final scenes when chimeras of life are passing through my ideas about family and coexistence with love... Bridge: I wanted to leave quietly But the opportunity did not come. Balancing on the edge of madness With a black candle I extinguished the light of days. Behind a curtain of sound I felt at home, In a burning city with the remains of an image in my memory...

I promise, as I see you crawling on the ground - Everything will come to be. Everyone can see behind the screen a reflection of heavenly light, but.... We lost our faith We became lost in the future Nothing lasts forever. Where there are damned skies and oceans, There is time for the pain…and for eternal abandonment. This human race has overstepped its condition A deformation of souls and thoughts. We´re dragging a bloody flag, colored by the night and the reddest tears. We lost our face We lost our identity Standing on the threshold of a new evolution Which will be for us the final destination. I do not believe anyone remembers What exists around us. We close our eyes and we know why We fight for money and the children cry. We lost our pain, We lost our judgement. Nothing lasts forever. Whoever wants to stare at empty hearts Can lift up his eyes....and thousands of phrases echo from faraway Who cannot cross over must find his end... That is what we chose, there can be nothing else.

The moonlight mirage of damned lake Quiet screams of souls from the bottom of the wattery graveyard And the look of a blind old man. An image of inviolability and blind faith Dying memories, like a life clenched in a fist.

Ref.: V tmách nenajdeš cestu života svou, mračna kryjí rozbřesk, zkus zahnat předtuchu zlou. Tvář, co jsi znal, ve snech probouzí žal touha pátrat po pravdě tě nutí se zradou se rvát. Klečíš a prosíš, chceš odpověď znát. Kolik dnů a cest projdeš bídou? Na konci snad vyřčený je ráj slíbený. Klečels a prosils, v chladu svíce pohaslá a než sbohem matce své dals. Snad věřils, že máš už na dosah dědictví předků svých. Však najít ten vysněný grál mysl souží, mezi nebem a zemí jsi jen prach, jak toulaví psi na cestách. Záblesk a ostří už protínaj ti zrak nepřátel zášť tě vzpouzí. Už není z lesů cesty zpět, smrt je jen nouzí. Chvíle je dlouhá, když cítíš věčný žár ve stopách svých konec vidíš. Jen stín naděje ti zbyl, po zázraku toužíš. Pohled matný v kalužích ti zbyl, úzkost rdousíš. Vstaň a běž, snad ještě je čas, než vodu života rozprodáš.

In the gardens of deafening amazing I have fulfilled my destiny beyond human understanding of life When unspoken wishes found freedom And the desire to awaken frozen time And open the gate to illusion In a solitude and understanding of human vanity I walk through the landscape of forgetfulness. Foggy curtains hide misunderstanding. Not everyone can see the unwritten words Of our destinies, As we search for the path to sensuality Permanently trying to leave our trace We bring nothing into this world And a simple life offers only a little Of what we can carry inside of us. In the gardens of discovered silence I have fulfilled my destiny.

Take me away, Sir, from the mirror of the past The tears are dripping in the eternal well And ripples on the surface create Impenetrable cells surround the seconds of our lives. All unspoken, There is no one left I can confess to. All unspoken I can swallow up the letters of those sentences. All unspoken, A tongue, as carved from a throat. All unspoken, Writing alone on the wall of tears. The presents has been scattered into the dust Why do I wake up in the past? I can see through blind eyes Into the kingdom of the fallen. The words I haven´t spoken Are disappearing in the depths of burried hopes. In the echoes of unlived tomorrows I learn to listen to the steps of solitude. Dancing shadows create a silhouette Of celestial freedom and connection. I´m waiting by the wall of tears. Outsider the borders of time, inside the temple of light. The unspoken desires When you couldn´t peer into my soul. Unspoken admissions follow you You drift through my world toward my arms Without prejudice and monotony.
