If I Go Away

Somewhere on that long empty road
We all stand lone
Searching for clues
From our different views

In the dark I call out your name
It echoes in vain
Over again
In an empty room

[Chorus]

And if I go away
What would still remain of me
The ghost within your eyes
The whisper in your sighs
You see
Believe
And I'm always there

Staring down a long empty hall
Pictures on walls
All with your name
But it's not the same

Searching for a chord I can't hear
Been searching for years
It's somewhere inside
But it's well disguised

And if I go away
What would still remain of me
The ghost within your eyes
The whisper in your sighs
You see
Believe
And I'm always there

Hall Of The Mountain King

Far away
In a land caught between
Time and space
Where the books of life lay
We fear
This castle of stone
The mountain king roams
All alone in here
But he's not the only one
Lost inside
Forever hidden from the sun

Madness reigns
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Oh yeah

His deep
Dark eyes
Keep watch on his kingdom
And the mysteries that sleeps safe inside
His hall
His towers of stone
Shall not be overthrown
For eternity
It is guarded by the king
Insanity and the power that it brings

Madness reigns
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Oh yeah
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Come with me
Stay close by my side
As the darkness of night closes in
Don't fear
In the thunder, it roars
When the Mountain King calls all his children home
To where I hid him we must run
Refuge(?) here but I was forever on the run

Madness reigns
(my friends)
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Oh yeah
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, Savatage Abend?

Oh, Savatage Abend?

Eben noch. Jetzt nicht mehr!

Metal

Blood of life, flowing pure
In honored grace we shall endure
Lords of war cast down on us
Nine lives before the Incubus

We praise the blood that metal brings
The essence of creative qaulity
Is life so pure we cannot seek
Our hopes, our dreams to make our fantasies reality

Chains of steel bind us here
They seem so real till death appears
In quest of fate, of love, of life
It's not to late to know the light

We praise the blood that metal brings
The essence of creative quality
Is life so pure we cannot seek
Our hopes, our dreams to make our fantasies reality

Incisioned mind, ruined for all time
In dark of night pursues the crime
But love be true even in hell
And love of life brings us metal

Blind as ever, they can't hear the bell
They will suffer for the souls they sell
Chains will never bind us to hell
To all father we rais eour swords and ride to Valhalla

Heavy..... METAL
METAL
METAL

Cage Of Mirrors

On the crest for eternity, a bell for every day
That I've lived in silent search of the mirrored cage
I could summon Lucifer and his warriors
With the necromancer's cage of mirrors

I found the castle on the hill where is said to be
The necromancer's gate to hell, a cage of sorcery
Mirrored bars that show all the pathways through the mind
To the other side of hell where demon warriors ride...
Where demon warriors ride... Ha! Ha ! Ha!

The cage appears before my eyes, I feel I'm in a dream
To the other side of hell I cast my spell and scream
I summon Lucifer and his warriors
I... I found the cage of mirrors

With magick book I cast the spell of the trinity
To open up the gates of hell and blacken all the seas
the griffon with his eyes of blood searing through my soul
Demanding virgin sacrifice, how was I to know
How was I to know... I couldn't know...
Not ever possibly.. What did I do...
Blasphemy... Ha! Ha! Ha!

Tale me back the way I came, I don't want to see
The evil that awaits my name, I live in agony
I would send back Lucifer and his warriors
But I'm trapped in a cage of mirrors

Es wird hell

Schliess dich ein mit mir
hier sind wir sicher
ich liebe dich
vergiss es​

The Riddle Master

What lies in the dungeons
Of Holy mens fears
For what would kings cower
And men drown in tears
What brings death and pleasure
Growth and decay
What makes life worth living
Who's the master today

That's how note read
Slipped under my door
The reason I know not
I have to know more
A poem to ponder
A challenge this night
The Riddle Master
Wants to master my mind
Oh no no no, oh no no no

Strange I was choosen, the fool divine
To battle the master
Of riddle and rhyme
Another mountain
For me to climb
I must find the answer
Before I run out of time

I have no solution
My mind blank with fear
The riddle has slain me
The master is near
Another demon
Walking the Earth
An Angel of darkness
Lucifer
Oh no no no, oh no no no

I can't believe it's true
I feel so damned coonfused
All I know is I must carry on and on and on

With blazing steel I'll fight
The evil in the night
Daughter of hell I shall not lose, not to you

Then it came to me
Just like a waking dream
The answer had to be Reality

The master does not laugh
Defeated by a man
Leviathan be damned, yea, yea, yea

The Veils Of Negative Existance

I sail the seas of negativity
To banish evil from this place
I fight with sword of fire and lightning
I am the guardian come this day

I will never put my sword down
I will never run away
In The Veils of Negative Existence
I am the master here to stay

My crystal shield will never fail me
It can withstand the devils rain
And with the Lords of Light to guide me
I bring forth vengeance in their name

I will never put my sword down
I will never run away
In The Veils of Negative Existence
I know it's not my mind at play

Upon the Island of Damnation
The Horde of Hades screams and wails
The blood of life and execution
Has put back light into the Veils

I will never put my sword down
I will never run away
In The Veils of Negative Existence
I am the master here to stay

Inside of the darkness
Between the planes
A tesseract dimension
Few know its name
On Prydwen, my longship
Of silver sails
Excalibur at my side
We shall not fail

Dreams Of Eschaton

I laid myself down into bed
To sleep away the night
A vision from inside my head
A sun with no sunlight
Death would grip humanitiy
A new Solar Ice Age
An Earth that no science could save

I woke sweat running down my face
I never felt so strange
To think that this could be our fate
To freeze in darkened pain
Then sleep brought back the dreams to me
Of wars to turn the tide
The world committing nuclear suicide

Inside this hazy world of dreams I've never known
I've seen the wrath come down and turn mankind to stone
And then I realized that this be Eschatus
A holocaust of flames to burn Midgard to dust

It has been called by many names throughout the years
Still they all mean the same, man burning in his fears
The Anti-Christ will come and rise up through the sea
The Dreams of Eschaton have shown this all to me

Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die
Remember well my friend a warlord never cries
These are the words that I've heard inside my mind
When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time

I hope that can see that this is not a game
We don't just sing to thee to win fortune and fame
The souls of all of us are priceless to the last
These dreams could be our fate of living life too fast

And so I say to thee watch the skies above
For when the darkness falls and rivers turn to blood
Then Arthur shall return to fight for peace and truth
To slay the beast of hell and save the righteous few

Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die
Remember well my friend a warlord never cries
These are the words that I've heard inside my mind
When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time

My Acid Words

Death and suffering all around me, no escape so why go on
When no one cares, no one’s there, you die inside before you’re gone
I’ve tried to reach the highest point of vision and my dreams appear fulfilled
But held before my eyes is a vision that now lies
Forever searching for the purpose are we running out of time

Waiting while the acid words are feeding
Watching as your will’s deteriorating

When I’m dead will you remember all the things I’ve tried to say?
This cancer inside of me destroying my life, when I rot in the ground will you care?
The sands of time are pointless in a useless ugly world
Nothing brings peace of mind, I leave nothing behind if my words are left unheard

Waiting while the acid words are feeding
Watching as your will’s deteriorating

And I’ve learned to watch the downgrade
And I’ve learned to follow the eyes behind me
Through the twisting hollow strange roads
To the apex of our fate, so cold

And I hate the way you look at me with your frozen soulless eyes
Deny it, ignore it and cover it in shame in your arrogant nameless void

Waiting while the acid words are feeding
Watching as your will’s deteriorating
It’s a one way ride and there’s nothing you can do
Not even suicide or my acid words can teach you anything useful

 

[Schweinchen]

... die Du liebtest hast Du längst umgebracht,
ihre Leben beendet in einer einzigen Nacht,
doch keine Spur von Reue blieb zurück,
jeglicher Form von Gefühl bist Du längst entrückt.

Irgendwann dort draussen traf ich Dich
und ich leckte das Blut von Deinem Gesicht

Warum Du mordest interessiert mich nicht
denn auch ich wandle
im Abglanz vom Licht
