Matters of the Dark

Cruise the nightsky The blackest space All for the Emperor Upon the golden throne Alterate me Second phase Among the stars Throughout the realm there's only war Disintegration My flesh is numb Now give the order Tell it! Say what must be done There is no mercy So turn and run Your absolution's down the barrel of my gun Into a brave new world Sail away, sail on And 'til we've saved the world So far away We'll be sailing the nightskies Retribution Take your sword Brace for impact Hold this course we're in for more Fire lances Satan at the door Litany, machinery Cut my soul away

It is a cycle of destruction Rarely in control A time for termination And the filth that fill your soul A menacing society Like a meeting with your mind Make us all your slaves tomorrow Would you be so kind Matters of the dark Your flesh and your soul will burn Is there nothing I can say To matters of the dark you turn No you can't walk away Call out to your father Or those that lived before Then ask them how to leave me Just how to shut the door Then watch as I deliver Uh, a stunning sight indeed Yes all your bloodstained souls are mine There's nothing else I need

Do believe her She's telling you to go, go Don't just stand there Your life's on the line and When you leave here Your body's screaming no, no Just go on don't look over your shoulder What's her secret Just can't tell can you She's the seer The voice of what's coming Who's the maker Just don't know do you Someone called her the bringer of reason I do not know at all But I do know this I believe in my ethereal soul Singing as one Flesh and spirit alike Why I meet her I tell you I don't know, know Make your stand here Your life's on the line and If you leave here You'd better take it slow, slow Turn your back And at last you will know her

So much higher and in too deep Make believe is what I believe in I stalk you now, but what if I leave Don't ask me to carry you further You don't mind, do you If I watch you sleep? You know, your secrets Are all safe with me Temptation and to you I creep What I leave will carry you further I know you I know your name Before we start this game Just one more thing to say Control makes all the same I know your name You don't know do you? I know who you are It's such a thin, thin line That keeps us apart As I near you I know what to do No more secrets And no more delusions

For the fathers of wisdom are lost And the magic of freedom is gone Can a time that you spend on your own Heal the heart and the mind set in stone With the sign of the cross over me Let the magic I need always be When they say that the one must be three Can a knight and a cross set you free And once you have crossed over Forever you will stay In the shadows Let the magic always be In the shadows Crossing over, over In the shadows One touch will set you free If you need me I'm standing in the shadows Does the book that you read speak of hell Will the life that you lead do as well Do the stars make a difference somehow Will you hide in their light, ooh Oh once you have crossed over Forever you will stay And they say that the damned are all free We know it's meant to be The Magic's touching me We're standing in the shadows

I don't believe you There is no end to your lies I won't believe you And there's no one here I trust And I want my freedom I can't escape but I must live here all along Out in the dark I stand and I must remain strong To fight for our freedom Each day we face them Building empires of the night No bombshells, gunfire And there's no fire burning bright It's just another way I said another way Just like the other day Now I don't want it Now can you hear me say They found another way Another way to build the Reich They almost made it last time Now they turn to strike They say it's all for freedom This I do not like Cause I fear its evil I don't believe you There is something in your eye You think you know me And the way I feel inside And I know you're evil

Time after time and once again See all the while they feed us only lies Twelve stars all plain to see And in my heart I fear Yes we all fear The war's not truly over In the streets we see the signs And on the screen they spill it out Forever lost it seems And deep inside you know What we all know The war's not truly over We've heard it all before Shut up and lock that door And when you feel secure The wounded beast arises Over the water, over the sea Over the water, riding the beast Over the water, over the sea Over the water she goes Riding the beast All the while, well I don't know but I believe we wait too patiently Near the end of time Watch her ride the waves of infamy Over the sea, rise above us all I was born in the fold of the beast We've heard it all before Can you see what I see

Look to the children They shine forevermore The light in their eyes Can open up the door Light our way Lost in the night We watch how they play Mystic moon in the sky Hear what I say Don't go, don't go away Is there no reason Reason of the Ghost I see no reason Reason of the Ghost Is there no reason Reason of the Ghost Oh, save our souls They have magic and games They've hope for the day Don't hand them their dreams Just to take them away Don't tell them the lion is rugged and pale Tell them you're dreaming Is there no reason Reason of the Ghost I see no reason Reason of the Ghost Is there no reason Reason of the Ghost Oh, save our souls They're hungry, they're poor They stand in the rain They wait for they're sure The pain stays the same Step into the night And live with the shame Their tears have all dried But are they ok Reason of the Ghost

At the Devil's Inn There's a room for you And there's a table's set And they want you too Then the keeper smiles And I believe in Hell This is where you stand This is where you end At the Devil's Inn When the night is new Yes, when the door slams shut And they turn on you Then the keeper smiles And you believe in Hell This is where you stand This is where you end Touch our circle as we lie Touch our lives we don't know why Dance in circles in the sky Where are all the friendly faces now? We're the same... we're all the same Touch me now I'll make you dance somehow At the Devil's Inn When the night is new Right! When the moon is full And they turn on you Then the Devil smiles Yeah we belong in Hell This is where we stand This is where we end Touches me, touches you While we do what we do Still we fly, do we know why

'twas no mistake I heard them say We'll take away tomorrow And make each day just fade away As lesser demons follow We steal the sky, we circle high We never fill the poor soul In misery, sweet misery Let lesser demons follow They spoke of how a great cabal Make mountains shake and crumble The days on earth for what they're worth Make angels scared and humble It's fair to say that any day Can tear your life asunder In misery, sweet misery As lesser demons wander And if the stakes are high now Just take them higher And if the walls come down Don't wait for me To feel the sun embrace you Heats my desire So when the walls come down Don't pray for me These written words can all be heard So listen well and follow I swear by God's Almighty Son That lesser demons wallow What if I say, today's the day Tomorrow's not tomorrow In misery, sweet misery Today is when we follow
