War of Ages

Out on the silent battlefield (on the silent battlefield) When the killing work is done and the crimson haze has gone Still (still) lies the deadly sword I wield (lies the deadly sword I wield) And I’m dreaming of your face, have begun to count the days But I fear to face a dreadful fate I am afraid to lose the one I cherish No sun is shining in the sky On wings of madness we will fly We can’t cross the distance away from reason No sun is shining in your eyes A shadow growing in disguise I can’t stand the silence embracing you at night Here in the corners off my mind (in the corners off my mind) Is a constant, longing scream, like an echo of a dream Oh there is always peace to find (there is always peace to find) In a drop of blood that shines while a lonesome creature whines Can I save you from a dreadful fate? I am afraid to lose the one I cherish No sun is shining in the sky On wings of madness we will fly We can’t cross the distance away from reason No sun is shining in your eyes A shadow growing in disguise I can’t stand the silence embracing you at night I see you dancing with your demons No sun is shining in the sky On wings of madness we will fly We can’t cross the distance away from reason No sun is shining in your eyes A shadow growing in disguise I can’t stand the silence embracing you No sun is shining in the sky On wings of madness we will fly I can’t stand the silence embracing you at night

Unknown lands, their call ever strong Then, my chance to set out for where I belong Left my home and crossed the sea, dropped my old identity Found another way to live my life Learned their language and their rites but had this dream in many nights The one about the day when I return again I will tell them of marvels my eyes have seen (my eyes have seen) Grandest of places where I’ve ever been Shining oasis, dream made of stone My fate led me there where desert winds moan Sunlight’s glance is enchanting the place Colors dance on walls hewn in far ancient days Rose red city in the sand, true myth from an Eastern land I am standing breathless, without words Temples under deep blue skies unknown to European eyes Centuries they had slept here in desert’s heart I will tell them of marvels my eyes have seen (my eyes have seen) Grandest of places where I’ve ever been Shining oasis, dream made of stone My fate led me there where desert winds moan In these lands illusions can fool you In merciless lights they glitter Ancient wonders did reveal, the place I found is real History will know my name I will tell them of marvels my eyes have seen Grandest of places where I’ve ever been Shining oasis, dream made of stone My fate led me there where desert winds moan I will tell them of marvels my eyes have seen (my eyes have seen) Grandest of places where I’ve ever been Shining oasis, dream made of stone My fate led me there where desert winds moan

To my love, the end has come I’m sorry I’m not going home Pain is gone but all I feel Is the last blood in my veins to slowly running cold Day after day, I fought so hard Hoping to meet you once again Orders obeyed, for a sacred aim Do I need honor... am I left to die? Don’t lose your smile, love makes all good survive You were my sunshine all the way Don’t close your eyes, a new world is to rise Forgive the wrongs we’ve done for freedom’s sake Please my love, survive this day I beg your heart to find a way I shall be strong but I can’t hide: I don’t know how to live without you by my side I believed our war was right But what a horrid waste reveals the light Don’t lose your smile, love makes all good survive You were my sunshine all the way Don’t close your eyes, a new world is to rise Forgive the wrongs we’ve done for freedom’s sake Giving up the guns could change the game (Giving up the guns could change the game) Let’s save this world from useless waves of pain (Let’s save this world from useless waves of pain) Don’t lose your smile, love makes all good survive You were my sunshine all the way Don’t close your eyes, a new world is to rise With dreams you dared to have now to live Believe my heart, though fate tore us apart You were my angel all the way Believe in men to bring hate to an end And never kill again for freedom’s sake...

Never thought I could kill a man Raging for respect – new king, noble hearted Still there’s more I am longing for Eastern world at war (world at war) – conquest, invasion So shall it be Prepare for fight of dawn I see for blood Power of an union Fade away Close teary eyes End of my life So we rise and fall The empire’s vast It will not last – The Great Age of Glory No remorse and no sympathy For the Persian crowd The kingdom will fall Babylon-it will rise today Now the eye of the world (eye of the world) Dark times are close The edge of time Approaching without mercy on a humble man I’m falling into sleep Fade away Close teary eyes End of my life So we rise and fall The empire’s vast It will not last – The Great Age So desperate to leave So desperate to leave Your soul full of crimes Your soul full of crimes There’s no way to believe There’s no way to believe What you came to take – I will not cry Hands of the gods, they will take care Of you and your men Relief in the east – a new king reborn A new world has come! My heart is at stake – for what is torn apart! Fade away Close teary eyes End of my life So we rise and fall The empire’s vast It will not last – The Great Age of Glory Fade away Close teary eyes End of my life So we rise and fall The empire’s vast It will not last – The Great Age of Glory

I can't stand a word from you, I feel the darkness, You keep sneaking into private affairs I guess what I have to do, For my own defense, I must get my mother's voice Reduced to silence What an irony I witness, Those not to trust: my family, can be the worst Watch your back and the water in your wine, senators By the blade or the poison you will die, betrayers! Don't forget that this empire is mine, The Matricide to show: treason makes me pity no one I show no remorse to Rome, Weakness is sin, They shall never doubt my power to grow When the walls no longer hide Their conspiracy, I find nothing else to say "Dead men tell no tales" You cannot hide your secrets They turn into fear, you should better run away Watch your back and the water in your wine, senators By the blade or the poison you will die, betrayers! Don't forget that this empire is mine, The Matricide to show: treason makes me pity no one Suspicion made your weary heart Confuse the truth with the lies Blinded by hate from the start You led your fate to your demise Watch your back and the water in your wine, senators By the blade or the poison you will die, betrayers! Don't forget that this empire is mine, The Matricide to show: treason makes me pity no one Watch your back and the water in your wine, senators By the blade or the poison you will die, betrayers! Don't forget that this empire is mine, The Matricide to show: treason makes me pity no one

My notes in the void, Symphony for the Quiet Music is fading, my sanity with it Muted is life when I open the window I can’t catch a sound, can they hear me? Twilight in my heart, when all noises die with sorrow But I still can hear the piano in my mind I play for my soul Harmonies of the past Chase all the shadows away At my dismay No major chord can last When choirs of fates deafen me I sense a distance Am I too far away? Silence is closing all the lips on my way Twilight in my heart when all noises die with sorrow But I still can feel the piano on the ground I play for my soul Harmonies of the past Chase all the shadows away At my dismay No major chord can last When choirs of fates deafen me I play for my soul Harmonies of the past Chase all the shadows away At my dismay No major chord can last When choirs of fates deafen me I play for my soul Harmonies of the past Chase all the shadows away At my dismay No major chord can last When choirs of fates deafen me I play for my soul Harmonies of the past Chase all the shadows away At my dismay No major chord can last When choirs of fates deafen, choirs of fates deafen, choirs of fates deafen me

Mid of July, the summer breeze Carries scents of blood along Those times we fear to lose a dream, to lose a nation Our strategy, a master plan Slowly writing history A genius trap coming their way Fate will not let us down today I don’t defeat an enemy I defend what I believe is right My role in the war is to bring to my country a glory to taste Tannenberg, where they lost the game Surrounding their men we let them no chance Tannenberg, luck was on our side That they never changed their mind Tannenberg, when I chose that name I remember the knights who fell in the past Shall this victory lighten their memory Everywhere, all the same Together as one, in the fronting line Men are ready for the fight I know they fear to lose their dreams, to lose their reason Falling around one by one Victims of fate will soon abound But rules are clear as they see They can only survive by killing They don’t defeat an enemy They obey orders we have given Your soldiers of fortune know We owe you the glory we taste Tannenberg, where they lost the game Surrounding their men we let them no chance Tannenberg, luck was on our side That they never changed their mind Tannenberg, when I chose that name I remember the knights who fell in the past Shall this victory lighten their memory Everywhere, all the same Here I stand (here I stand) Watching the line (watching the line) There they stand, together Fall with pride (fall with pride) On both sides (on both sides) Men are a band of brothers But counting the dead is somehow Changing the glory to waste Tannenberg, if I had done wrong I wouldn’t live to long... a regret so strong Tannenberg, luck was on our side That they never changed their mind Tannenberg, when I chose that name I remember the knights who fell in the past Shall this victory lighten their memory Everywhere, all the same

If so royal is my name A blessing in disguise No more suffering, no pain – these days Waiting for my own golden crown I can’t feel a difference This low life ends without a tear Don’t say goodbye All I longed for feels like nothing Of any meaning in my life When the night falls My graceful heart shows what it tried to hide from you Fears of breakdown, safe appearance And I will never lose my faith... I’ll rise even higher No more count in this cold land – they’re gone Austrian empire they named this reign of men Bloodline will stay alive – my heir I’m leaving some day No reason to turn down this emotion of misery All I longed for feels like nothing Of any meaning in my life When the night falls My graceful heart shows what it tried to hide from you Fears of breakdown, safe appearance And I will never lose my faith... I’ll rise even higher I belong to a historic reign My legacy will be recalled By all the people in this world – I live on All I wanted feels like nothing of worth All I longed for feels like nothing Of any meaning in my life When the night falls My graceful heart shows what it tried to hide from you Fears of breakdown, safe appearance And I will never lose my faith... I’ll rise even higher, higher
