Choir of Horrors

Agnus redemit oves: Christus innocens patri Reconciliavit peccatores A lamp the sheep redeemeth: Christ, who only is sinless Reconcileth sinners to the father It's written in the truth I was crowned - I went down Another man is raised - far too high up A new emperor Let him fear ruin! For in the scars it is written Until he's shaken by the resonance of the seven trombones Bel Marduk - glory to him by Chaldaeus Later I saw an angel descending from the sky One with great sway and the earth lit up With his elevation and enlightment The sinner was despised Volupatis avidus - magis quam salutis Mortus in anima - et ustus fortiter I heard another voice amidst the lightning in heaven Abscond Babylon and you won't share in the sin And you won't partake in the pain And as they glorified themselves and roused excess To the same dreadful degree, they were overcome By torment and despair Up to heaven! Os eius vias malus sederam elatus Obdurat imperat ira vehementi sors turpissima And I heard another cry from all of the trombones of retalia- Tion Abscond babylon and you won't partake in pain Babylon - pray for the choir of horrors Babylon - choir of horrors Then I heard it from the heart of the city I reign as a queen and I'm not a widow Never will I feel regret, never Babylon - pray for the choir of horrors Babylon - choir of horrors And so the pain will come Plague, sorrow and hunger In just one hour, you - might Babylon Will perish in fire

You were just twenty years old When you were run down by a car We were all deeply filled with sadness When we were told of your death You always were a happy person But respect for death It was shown in your lifestyle Tell us about your trip into eternity After I was supposedly dead I heard a loud humming I moved very fast Through a long dark tunnel I felt blackness and darkness Then I found myself outside Of my own body, but still close by And I observed the attempt revive me I experienced eternity at first Just as I had always thought it would be Angels, ghosts and other creatures came They greeted me and showed me the way The picture faded, more nd more And the angels lost their wings A light appeared, the true light An unbeleivably bright, white light I landed on a big lawn And felt the pure joys of life Saw a lot of my relatives And I was taken through the 'hall of memories' I had to evaluate my life And I came to a gate The boundary between the life on earth And the new life, yet to come I must return to my physical body And try to live my earthly life Through this experience my life is touched My outlook on death and on life Death is a second birth into the invisible astral world From where the soul stepped down into a visible body

Babylon you must die In god's fire You can't survive Hell has arrived Once a thriving town, now rubble and ashes Hungry homeless human, sitting on ruins Helplessly crying in the night, where is the redeemer Bloody rivers flow through the dust, no hope in sight Just to survive - murder everyday No remorse - that's our way

Overpowered by his tendency for evil A man drew out an ancient magic formula Painted two circles on the ground And burned pine and poplar Other ingredients followed into the cauldron Opium, poppy, aloe, hemlock As the flames blazed He began to mutter his conjuration Chosen from the devilish group Send the big grey ghost Who makes humanity tremble Come, come, come Steam and cintment begin to work The man sinks to his knees He implores to the ghost of the unknown To give him the power of metamorphosis I ask. I call. I implore you You phantom of the darkness Nobody's like you Transform me into a werewolf At last perfectly transformed in his fantasy The werewolf hunts in the darkness He serves the evil one With heart, body and soul He's damned night after night Scouring dales in search of human victims He knows that he's vulnerable For defense he mutters the last words of the ritual Smelt the ball, blunt the knife Let the cudgel wear away Terrorize man, wild animals And reptiles shake in terror Why they don't seize the grey wolf And skin his warm coat My word is strong, stronger than the sleep Stronger than the strength of heroes

Whatever the woman in black does Her hands are covered by silk gloves She's a lady that looks elegant 'n stylish No one knows that she lives in misery Sometimes when she's alone in her apartment Deep in her soul she experiences her inner pain It starts with running up 'n down the floor Suddenly it stops She then cowers in a cramped position And begins gnawing on her fingernails Then continues by cutting up her already maimed And stunted hands with a razor-blade She pounds her tortured bloody fists on the floor Unable to feel the same pain we would At the end she cries out for all she's worth Making her soar to her seventh heaven Indifferent she goes to bed or watches tv Not knowing that in reality She shares that misery with many others It repeats Year for year Month for month Day for day Hour for hour When she was a child Her parents gave no love Only when she was sick Everybody took care of her And now she's thirty It's still deep in her mind It returns again and again And it repeats Year for year Month for month Day for day Hour for hour When she had problems as a teenager Her parents gave no help But when she had an accident All took care of her And now she's forty It's still deep in her mind She's controlled by münchhausen syndrome Incurable and damned to death

Shadowed and veiled in various colors Maiden worthy of love so rich in joys Let her please you with devilish golden hair As the witch for a faithful dead may the unknown bless you Most beautiful one - witch! Endless precious jewel - heretic! Pride among virgins - confess! You rose of the world - and die! Holy inquisition seized by desire Young men and women for a most bitter fate Hundreds and then thousands in the name of the holy church Her messiah dies now, not on the cross but by the flames Most beautiful one - witch! Endless precious jewel - heretic! Pride among virgins - confess! You rose of the world - and die! Oh my god - where are you now? Is this the temple of messiah Or is this the gateway to hell? There are not enough places in heaven Forgive them, they know not what they do I don't bemoan my wounds of flames breathe to the smoke against my soul I'm one of thousands, you are the next But think! There are not enough places in heaven!

I'm afraid of the night, helpless The forest is drenched in sinister fog My home is in the mountains, without civilisation I have no contact to the outside world A dog is barking in the night His faithful eyes gleaming, he stands on the porch I take him in and he grows stronger Guarding me against the creatures of the wood No hunting without him at my side I can't imagine life without him More and more, his body's changing His coat gets shaggy and his muscles bulge He shows hatred and aggressiveness towards me Bloody, raw meat is what he wants Me, I'm meat too, that's what he sees Too late, no chance to kill my creation I'm perishing in agony and pain
