The Eyes of the Shadow
Another day a mortal scene Will the Keeper find a place he needs to calm Where his souls are free they feel as one Silently he carries on to a place ... Full of faith yet so afraid A tale yet it feels as the one like the one He has seen before can't take no more His mind reflects the future to a place where he belongs Worlds align relief not closing in The final stage no place to hide within Through different eyes Through different eyes they see the light No unsolved mysteries Through different eyes they feel Untainted mortality Anguish them who don't understand Ignore the ones who try to make the Keeper live a lie or sin In silence he battles on to fight not to right the wrong World of lies relief is closing in The final stage no faith to twist the sin Through different eyes Through different eyes they see the light No unsolved mysteries Through different eyes they feel Untainted mortality "The miracle you seek a treasure for the weak" Replies from skies above twisted love for the immortal Creator Through different eyes they see the light No unsolved mysteries Through different eyes they see the light Untainted mortality Through different eyes they see the light Untainted mortality

No smile no glance no love no hand To silence the tears when they're falling Grief it blinds this mind to find a way out of this legacy Fear the rage in me Force me to hide the innocence of the secret inside Behind these eyes grief it sleeps Waiting for the words unspoken Breathing my mind Thoughts unkind 'til it awakes It's the Savage Symphony of my youth It's the Savage Symphony All victims of Medusa's sight By a Nordic cold surrounded And tortured lies twist, while dreams they die, all hope to illusion Fear the rage in me Force me to hide the innocence of the secret inside Behind these eyes grief it sleeps Waiting for the words unspoken Breathing my mind Thoughts unkind 'til it awakes It's the Savage Symphony of my youth It's the Savage Symphony ... inside ... Behind these eyes grief it sleeps Waiting for the words unspoken Breathing my mind Thoughts unkind 'til it awakes It's the Savage Symphony of my youth It's the Savage Symphony of my youth It's the Savage Symphony

Far away beyond any man's imagination lies a wasted land scarred by battlefields A remorseless warrior living in damnation standing in defense at the passageways A crystal palace the temple of his soul lying in the shadow of his holy sword No mercy only the chosen ones survive Cursed with being judge and jury over mortal lives Through empty eyes he shows no emotion But deep inside ... A naked child is crying in the darkness bruised and battered by his violent past Lying on the ground without making any sound trying to understand this fake reality Faded pictures what ever used to be lying in the shadow of all that is gone No mercy only the chosen ones survive Cursed with being judge and jury over mortal lives Through empty eyes he shows no emotion Hiding the essence of his lonely soul Captured by the demon's light he rides through eternal nights His faith is sealed forever time Prince of Wasted Lands Captured by the demon's light he rides through eternal nights His faith is sealed forever time Prince of Wasted Lands Far away beyond any man's imagination lies a wasted land scarred by battlefields A remorseless warrior living in damnation standing in defense at the passageways No mercy only the chosen ones survive Cursed with being judge and jury over mortal lives Through empty eyes he shows no emotion Hiding the essence of his fragile soul Far away beyond any man's imagination lies a wasted land scarred by battlefields Far away beyond any man's imagination lies a wasted land

Old memories, cold and confusing Just empty words inside The bitterness, the pain within Veil of tears grays her eyes, still ... Like a child, she watches and smiles: "Face the moonlight in dreams with you" Now a man, strange feelings surround me It's the curse I feel cold within She tries to hold the candles Still she tries to hide behind a smile Her hand held to my head The warmth within her answer: "Your love can't burn alone ..." Her beauty shines when she whispers: "Please, say you understand" Now I realize, from bright and silent skies Dying days to me I try to light the candles Still I try to hide behind a smile Her glance caressed my thoughts The pain within my answer: "I know, it's the curse I hold ..." Whenever I believe my fantasy deceives me And still I wonder why I feel a curse inside of me Whenever I believe my fantasy deceives me And still I wonder why I won't surrender to the curse I hold ...

Lying here for hundreds of years This Evil Force of Darkness on a quest to let them bleed From out of his crypt he conquers without fear Millions of souls revenge is what he seeks And when the night has fallen You hear him calling out their names You can hear his spirit talking: "It will never be the same!" He's walking through their dreams annihilating every light Until darkness is the only thing they can see Their minds will all be victimized and paralyzed 'Til they are too deaf and blind to hear and see The revelating sound and light which could set them free And when the night has fallen You hear him calling out their names You can hear his spirit talking: "It will never be the same!" Children of an ancient time make no mistake your mind is mine Revenge is what I seek your hearts will bleed Surrender to the rage in me the force of immortality Revenge is what I seek for ancient times He's taking all their dreams annihilating every life Until sadness is the only thing they can feel Their minds will all be victimized and paralyzed 'Til they are too deaf and blind to hear and see The revelating sound and light which could set them free And when the night has fallen You hear him calling out their names You can hear his spirit talking: "It will never be the same!" There he lies the king of darkness He is crying bitter tears Despite his evil force he is helpless To live a solitary life it's chaining him into eternity for ancient times

In the devil's arena, rage and war are causing chaos A deadly drama takes place before our eyes We are crying sadly tears hopelessly in despair On the wings of agony, greed will spread his wings of evil To shade humanity from the purifying sun We are living in a darkened world, honestly, do we care? The loneliness we fear inside we tried to hide Behind a smile of an innocent child It's a tragedy that we refuse to see The lost conscience of humanity At the crossroads of forever we choose a violent path Into the void we follow and learn the dance of death Forever missing souls are crying of damnation Blinded by misery waiting for salvation It's a tragedy that we refuse to see The lost conscience of humanity On the wings of agony greed will spread his wings of evil To shade humanity from the purifying sun We are living in a darkened world, honestly, do we care? The loneliness we fear inside we tried to hide Behind a smile of an innocent child It's a tragedy that we refuse to see The lost conscience of humanity It's a tragedy that we refuse to see The lost conscience of humanity

Into the void lonely and cold Your tears created this sad world This is the place for one that needs Where broken hearts can bleed Under a shaded moon You're wandering around Out of the ashes into the dark I'll always guide you in peace and war Now and forever it's you and I Into the night together we fly There may be no tomorrow I'll give you warmth, without, you will die Just close your lonely eyes Under a shaded moon You're wandering around Out of the ashes into the dark I'll always guide you in peace and war Now and forever it's you and ... Do you hear the angels sing?

I can remember I resisted temptations and traps you would fall into For separate unity would you sacrifice your soul? Between the lines and lies begging for answers for chances you never had You show me your "pure" energy you would sell for gold Can't you feel the force? You can't mirror your eyes can't reason your thoughts I sense fear from my first impressions in your mind For all of us uncover your eyes be free! Beneath the edge of time and light Chained to the masses just speaking your voiceless words The naked truth revealed: you will sell, I know, you will sell your soul Can't you feel the force? Would you sacrifice your soul? Would you sell your soul for gold? Thrown into the sea drowning new wisdom Echo the answers your story your "ancient rites" Not even once did you try to listen to my call Between the lines and lies Seeing the future ignoring the sacred signs You show me your true fantasies you would trade for gold Can you feel the force? Can you tell does darkness light this fantasy? Beyond the line where the Silent Edge will shine I can tell this path across reality is found by rebellion's force within Can you tell does darkness light this fantasy? Beyond the line where the Silent Edge will shine I can tell this path across reality is found by rebellion's force within Would you sacrifice your soul? Would you sell your soul for gold? Would you sacrifice your soul? Would you sell your soul for gold?

Now I can see clearly The fortune I have found Never fades when falling down It's a world supremacy An inhuman day again You will not believe my friend Forced to feel free Gathered wisdom around Broke into pieces while burning down The taste of loneliness The power of the blind You will never understand Forced to feel free Gathered wisdom around Broke into pieces while burning down So you created this whole world of hatred Now I know I was destined to find The rebellion's force within ...
