Dead Again

Anna... was praying to a God She had betrayed, so they said Some folk had seen her flying on a broom All Hallows Eve, under the moon The inquisitor had left her behind Gone for a bite, food on his mind The sun was slowly trying to hide Behind a town so full of pride A sight Anna would never see again Torture in the name of Christ, confess, oh you witch Torture in the name of Christ, you witch you... confess SOLO: Shermann Sitting naked on the wooden horse Weights to her legs, what a holy cross Her bloody hands tied to her back Her golden hair burned to black Thumbscrews they had used To crush each tip of her fingers to a pulp In the torture chamber, she couldn't feel much more Of anything... anymore Torture in the name of Christ, confess, oh you witch Torture in the name of Christ, you witch you... confess Satan's mark... had slipped away They already searched her body twice today And it was all in vain Oh Anna here they come again Off the horse, strapado for a friend Up she goes, higher and higher Anna's crying, screaming: "Liars" SOLO: Shermann - Wead Confess, confess witch Confess, before you die "Yes, yes, I am a witch, may Satan take you all" SOLO: Wead They dropped her from the ceiling To a foot above the floor Her arms and legs disjointed Screams of pain... then finally no... more

On this cold and windy Sunday I'm sitting here alone... it's Autumn I'm looking at a yellow picture You have been gone forever Oh it's so very hard, growing old on your own, alone I'm trying to remember... the days... When we were young Since forever, I still remember your ways Since forever, I still remember I have been reading your letter, over and over again I can't believe you're gonna be here today I can't believe... this is Sunday How nice of you to come, it's been so way too long Let me get you another glass of wine To keep our tongues in time SOLO: Wead Since forever, I still remember your ways Since forever, I still remember So many things have never been told And now the both of us are way too old SOLO: Shermann Since forever, I still remember your ways Since forever, I still remember Like the light of the sun You used to brightened my day But darkness has taken your place And I can no longer keep it away Since forever, I still remember your ways Since forever, I still remember I ask you for one last time No there won't be any wine Just one more time So you can put flowers on my grave And then leave again... since forever

Many have seen the statue that cries But only I have seen her at night Many say that it... is a miracle Many say that her... tears can heal you, but When the sun goes down, and my day begins That's when I saw her change Her tears did turn to blood, just like a miracle And through her mouth of stone, I saw the fire From so deep inside, I heard a voice from Hell "I am the lady who cries, I am he who lights the night" "I am Lucifer" SOLO: Shermann Many say that it... is a miracle Many say that her... tears can heal you, but From so deep inside, I hear a voice from hell "I am the lady who cries, I am he who fights the night" SOLO: Wead "I'm your eternal friend" "Let my children come to me at day Let my children come to me and pray" SOLO: Wead "They don't know who I am Or that they worship the Devil They don't know who I am They think I'm a miracle..."

I heard it... in my sleep last night I heard it... in your sleep last night Now I can hear it again, outside the night is sad I know it's not the wind, outside the night is black Under our window is the Banshee Wailing its haunted tune Under our window is the Banshee Wailing its haunted tune too soon I know that, I must tell you a lie I know that, it could be you and not I Before the sun is rising, the Banshee cannot stay Before the night is dying, a life will slip away Under our window is the Banshee Wailing its haunted tune Under our window is the Banshee Wailing its haunted tune too soon I must light a fire, to chase away the night Let us hold each other tight The cats are gone, I guess... they know Oh... they know what's gonna come SOLO: Wead The wailing is so much louder, I need to hold you tight I can feel you getting colder, is it time for you or I? SOLOS: Shermann - Wead Under our window is the Banshee Wailing its haunted tune Under our window is the Banshee Wailing its haunted tune too soon Let it be me

Why do I keep on doing this? It's not for me anymore I'm doing this more for you than I And on that lonely road to nowhere I lost myself to something else I don't know where I'm going or where I've been It's so hard to remember all the things I am, am I? It feels like the end is near, catching up with me Catch me if you can, cause I'm going down into the ground How much longer can I keep going on? I can feel my lost ones coming down Sooner than later, I'll see you all again I feel my purpose here slipping away I see the sun, but it's raining I hope I'm on my way to better things And if I'm not, it doesn't really matter Cause I am doing this more for you than I am me I can no longer pretend, that my life is worth living I... I would rather die, be dead again Hold on Now here it comes, death for one, a lonely son Up then down, I'm spinning around My soul is so confused again Am I floating towards the sun? Hold on, am I dead on? SOLO: Shermann Through a tunnel of black, why? Why do I feel so sad? I've been waiting for the end of act 9 to come The curtain must fall, the end of a song SOLO: Wead But the song goes on and on The light is so very strong I'm drifting along, I have no will I'm drifting still In a room without walls... I feel the chill No one is here to pick me up Nothingness... what a mess... oh Is anybody there? Is anybody there? I'm talking to you, do you hear me? If I could only see through the wall of nothingness The wall of black They gave me number 9, this is not like the last time Number 9 This time I am really losing my mind I hear an orchestra... I see an orchestra I greet an orchestra... I meet an orchestra I'm in an orchestra... I am an orchestra I kill this orchestra... I kill me? No No don't stop, oh please don't stop Hey stay here, what's going on? ...hey wait for me SOLOS: Shermann - Wead I'm running but I can't keep up Then I realize my feet are gone This is such a weird weird song The orchestra is now a door One is one and two is four, I can see three more Seven doors, seven doors I must choose one before they're gone But I cannot move, oh they are drifting away now But I cannot move, oh they are drifting away now I've got to reach that door, the number 6 I've got to reach that door, the number 6 The number 6-6, the number 6-6-6 The number 6-6-6 The number 6-6-6, that's my door Wuauuu... look at all the colours There goes an orchestra, no more doors Close the window, here they come I hear another end of this song But again the song goes on Dead again, I know cause I've been here before I'm dead again, if I could only reach that door The number 6-6-6, the number 6-6-6 I'm beginning to miss you again Why can't I just get you out of my mind... I must forget Dead again, I know cause I've been here before I'm dead again, if I could only reach that door Through a purple mist the light is fading I guess I'll have to stay dead A little longer this time Dead again...
