I'm the ruler of time And I'm the creator of life Because I am the dominator and faith Condemned by me thou who are immortal Lights of life, darkness of death I am your judge The emperor - a king I am the ruler of everything I paint the world with dreams and illusions You are my puppet on a string so fragile I watch and demand The emperor - a king I will be eternal When you've been dead and gone I fool a new believer A new dimension to your life I am the ruler of everything The master of all

Rest your head and close your eyes When the dream starts your problems fly Like a never ending floating stream You await the exciting dream To a world of wishes and horrors Where laughter can turn to sorrows When the light of the night Can be so warm and bright It might be drenched in red When you wake you wish you were dead Strangled in a solid iron chain A harvest of a burning pain Some of us will slowly awake Some will the grim reaper take A kingdom where we'll travel to lay But a few will eternally stay Drowning in my own dreams Beyond the wall of realms In this alley of shadows Where it ends no one knows A place where everything is in unison You know wisdom better than none A blue sky and the magic sunlight Can turn to suffering and everlasting night Sail with those silent winds Towards where no one loses, no one wins A stream of light in my veins A vision for hell but so in pain A room full of strangers but I'm alone Second by second, life's alone Some of us will slowly awake Some will the grim reaper take A kingdom where we'll travel to lay But a few will eternally stay

Leave me alone Between my walls of stone I would travel away from me Trapped in a jar - can't get free Goodbye and don't you ever follow Another day goes by, a mist in grey so shallow So safe in the youth Grow older and get the bitter taste in your mouth Life, oh life, where did you fly? Were my dreams all set to high? Life, oh life, where did you fly? Were my dreams all set to high? Light of the so treasured life The curtain of youth will fall And now enter this sleeping old hall Where time is a carving sharp knife For so long I've been awake Hopefully death won't forsake And lay my wining body to sleep A quire will cradle me deep Life, oh life, where did you fly? Were my dreams all set to high? Life, oh life, where did you fly? Were my dreams all set to high? All set to high, all set to high?
I've seen the sun set And transform into the eastern moon I believe the river of nile will flood real soon A plague will strongly dominate Where the curses and misery participates This claustrophobic moisty air Makes me shiver in despair I'm lost, I'm buried alive I'm searching - I will strive Arriving to the valley of the kings Guarded by snakes - I fear their deadly sting Your own body will come apart The gods own created art I hear their voices but they don't hear me It's all in my mind driven by fear you'll see Running down this hall of eternal mystery Covered with webs and sweat Halfway to insanity I've seen the sun set And transform into the eastern moon I believe the river of nile will flood real soon A plague will strongly dominate Where the curses and misery participates Arriving to the valley of the kings Guarded by snakes - I fear their deadly sting Arriving to the valley of the kings

I've sworn a bow so sacred An ancient whispering so honoured The fall from grace of God Bleeding for a decade in respect The fall from grace of God Low in spirit - old in thought, so tired Evolution spinning psychotic backwards A road to madness walked by generations As the waves roll with the tide In your innerself you will hide As the waves roll with the tide In your innerself you will hide Our heritage - a sour ground Paper on table and pencil in hand An almost forgotten land Covered with ashes and sand There has to be a better place Than travelling a path of a dying race The pollution has taken control Leaving me in a coma of souls Say goodbye, we all know why Air and sun we took for granted I'll make a bow for all we wanted As the waves roll with the tide In your innerself you will hide As the waves roll with the tide In your innerself you will hide

Watch me, watch me At dawn - I'll find my sanctuary A naked limb patched up so very fresh Life is for the scared and temporary Think me, think me - at the morgue in bright light Lips sewed together - the very last breath Feel so divine in this morbid make-up Feed them - watching my eyes In the reflections of yours Time for the autopsy, please close the doors Lower me down - I will feed the worms Where were you when I needed you most By the name of the father and the holy ghost Think me, think me - at the morgue in bright light Lips sewed together - the very last breath Feel so divine in this morbid make-up Where were you when I needed you most By the name of the father and the holy ghost Where were you when I needed you most By the name of the father and the holy ghost

Welcome to a wierd place called life A godforsaken place for beggar man and thieves Face to face with your own horror and frustration Followed by expectations of fortune Swallow your pride, humiliation continues Stabb or be stabbed, you chose or you lose Friend or enemy is there a difference Feed the fire of envy to success A new dawn, a new place A new world in our own pace A new dawn, a new place A new world in our own pace Play your own part in this tragic comedy Chocked by your own life, your act Climb the ladder , touch of heaven, be a God Look in the mirror, face your nemesis Erase me by myself, a favour to me A new dawn, a new place A new world in our own pace A new dawn, a new place A new world in our own pace

Drifting away, embraced by silvery veils of grey Something grasps my senses and gently strokes my face Prayers got granted, at last detatched from all despair, all the past The lewd life I led, all the blood I shed My mortal remains soon wilted and decomposed Where am I now and who is my host? Overwhelmed by such perfect beauty Wrapped up in fathomless harmony I close my eyes, no need to see, as nature is Delivering me I close my eyes, no need to see as nature is Delivering me
