Lyrics

Prologue:
In a very distant future, the last generation of planet earth
Has come to a point where they cannot breed anymore
When everybody had lost their faith, a child was born, but no
One could be the father, except for a god
This child was a gift from the skies of life-divine or..

Part 1: ----------------------------------------------------------- 0:00

Another sky is young..
Another frozen future has passed
Another breed, another cast
The rivers will run, brought to life by the sun, the circle is still unbroken

Oh, what a sight to see
Reborn life, destined for all eternity

Hail the king!
For he has chosen not to drain the godsent child, a gift from
The skies of life divine

Now we know
A glimpse of hope grow inside, a change of tide
Answered prayers of survival

Miracles
The offspring of the unknown gods beautifies the aura of this
Dying breed
So they succeed in their quest for continued time

Celebrate
The knowledge of the everlasting, never-dying

Cursed to be walking in the shadows of death for a lifetime
No more fears for what the years will bring
Rebuild the shattered dream
And now a brighter future has come, another end remains undone
And an era begins
Bringing life free from sins
Oh, it's a token, the circle is broken

(The drop of blood from her mouth slowly fell down to the
Ground
Th child inside dried her out. the king's beloved is no more.)

The chosen one felt the time had come to show the world what
Had grown within
This day of life, a sacred moment in time, when joy and pain
Collide

It takes a life to create a life
Now she's gone

Part 2: ---------------------------------------------------------- 4:54

Anger and hate
Fear and despair fills up his mind
In search for answers he can't find
What god would end a life so pure
She was the one worth dying for
Alone with princess angel-sent
Her eyes so blue, my hate relents
Her destiny is in my hands
She was born to rule these desert lands

( vocals mike: )
A sacrifice
A life arises
When one love has come, another dies
I let her go and I do not know where to find her soul so alone

Oh, does she hold the power, is she a blessing from the skies?
Is this the answer to where the secret lies
And in her eyes I see a light is shining through
I feel that there is hope for a world so brave and new

Many seasons have changed
And the king is old and weak
The princess has come of age
But still, the gift of life they seek

In the chambers of crimson sleep
In this vault of souls to reap
The future lies in the hands of the shrewd
Or the earth will die in solitude

(Harmony: andreas)

The darkest night the enchanted skies were united in a storm
Unholiness and all that's unblessed appeared in another form
Like a raging plague all across the land all the women gave birth to man
Raped by the wind and forced to bring life to the hundred bastard sons

The unholy ones will give
Strength for all evil to live
And the fires of death burn high
The time has come for the king to die

(Lead guitar: mike)

The whole world is mourning the loss of their king
In sorrow a new day dawning
Now the princess is their everything
A procession to the chambers where they kiss their fathers ring
Can you hear the angel of sadness sing... with broken wings

Part 3: ---------------------------------------------------------- 10:43

(Harmony: andreas)

And with death came disorder, who were they now to obey?
No leader, no followers
No trust, no faith
The princess is too young to tame a land, a new king must be chosen
In search for such a man of trust there will be contradictions

Coming forth on desert ground
The incarnation of a king in sleep profound

Another self-proclaimed king, set to rule in the new empire
On a mission to save the forsaken ones and to re-light the dying fire

The crowd was confused and divided in two, a battle was about to begin
Another man with a will as strong declared a war to win
His army of believers was faithful, mighty and brave
Set to capture the liar, to forever enslave

His troops were marching on to the battlefield to set this world on fire
His forces are never giving yield

War! they fought for what would be a blood-stained crown
Utter chaos supreme
The sand absords the colour of dawn
Nevermore shall they dream, nevermore

Part 4: ---------------------------------------------------------- 14:57

The years went by under a blood-red sky
The king still suppress the rebellian lie
He is the one, the self-chosen son
Master of the throne herules upon

The sacred child awakened from her crystal sleep
And the earth was shaking, and the people prayed for their souls to keep
The light of day is flowing into her virgin eyes
Oh, the sun is stolen

A dark formation in the skies
Unites the powers in her eyes
Her soul's inhaling all the living light
Bringing on the dark, eternal night
Gathering evil in all its might

Seven years
Purity
Innocence
Dignity
Hail, hail the queen!
Ruling supreme

Part 5: --------------------------------------------------------- 18:32

She is queen alone in the human zone, dethroned the king unpure
The masses were assured, she fought without a sword
She regained their hope and faith

Draining the liar in the crimson water
To bring him eternal pain
His soul is slaughtered
Eternalizing bane
Scream in silence, noone shall hear his cries encaged
The unroyal king, surrended to the child of life divine

A hundred fortnights passed but still no signs of aging
Her endless youth... amazed, the world was raging
A shattered race in this broken land this child came to restore
Like an order from the gods

The queen and all the children gathered around
The chambers where the elder ones are joined in sleep profound
In wrath they crush the tanks of crystal glass
The crimson water gushed on to the ground in the unholy maceration
Their souls no longer cried
Die!
Their gift of life denied

She drinks the life-blood from the feebled man
Empty bodies, soul-drained by the virigin queen
Finally given the pleasure to die
She aligns the hate inside their hearts
Her chosen knights will make sure all life departs
Soon comes the end of all, she watched a chamber fall
She heard her master call

"Live my words, oh, sacred child
You're soon to leave this world defiled."
"Then what awaits me my lord?"
"Trust me my child, your wishes shall not be ignored"
And then he spoke his mind, now his will is hers
"The earth shall fall. the eternal curse is cast on the sands they walk."

"Now you must use your power. show the human race you are the one
Use their trust forever and then deceive their weakened minds
Fool them to destroy themselves in hopelessness
Belie their seeds, belie their dreams. hope has ceased to be."

The people worshiped their queen
Such beauty before her time was unseen
Their were fooled by her presence and disguise
Faithfully they listened and swallowed all her lies
"The times are changing, re-arranging the patterns of our lives
So let your heart stop beating beneath this twisted sky."
They were embraced by sadness, but not afraid to die

Part 6: -------------------------------------------------------- 24:40

"So pass this sacred dagger and let yourself fly free
So pretend that you are dreaming
And rise above this world of you and me."

Liar!
All those who died with you by their side were denied access
To the higer ground

Betrayal!
Eternal detest from the ones left unblessed, so possessed
Their last caress was your knife in their hearts

Fed from her deed, watching them bleed
In her own conceit, a world to delete, lies at her feet
Her demon inside do no longer hide
Showing its face of hate and disgrace leaving their saviour unpraised

Part 7: ------------------------------------------------------- 26:55

The ones who didn't follow
Now sharing this moment of grief
The end of their own existence?
In death they had no belief
Despite all the faith in their queen they couldn't believe
What they had seen
What was the reason to this sacrifice
Nothing is gained from this great demise
After the ordeal we know she has the powers to decieve us all
But their dream of sons and daughters has made them standing tall

For the king had showed them it could be done
When his woman gave birth to the sacred one
But is she of man, made of flesh and blood
Or is she the offspring of the unholy
God!

(Lead guitar: andreas)

A leader was chosen to unveil the hidden truth
The brave ones were gathered, the strongest were sent to the queen
Her reason to be must be known

Part 8: --------------------------------------------------------- 29:30

After many moons the troopsreach the temple of their majesty
Guarded by a hundred faithful knights
There is no escape, there's no entry to her sacred halls
Is our vision true or false?

They tried to find the answer
But they were led astray
Into a maze of slumber
Far from the light of day

The riddle remained unanswered
The queen could read ones mind
Make sure that noone will find the reason for her mission here

The highness writhe in anger, her trust had been betrayed
The queen was filled with langour, her decision has been made

She would unleash her hate
Destined to devastate
She heard her demons roar, marching into war

Part 9: --------------------------------------------------------- 32:30

The spirit of their beloved king who spoke unto his men
He came to bring a message of great importance and trust
"The gift from the gods has come to cover the world in dust
Her forces are closing in to your sanctuary
So use your imagination to end her reign
Remember these words, and be strong!"

The chosen few were sacrificed for the others life
They were the bait, they would seal the soldiers fate
A massive grave, to break the soldiers spell
The forces fell into the abyss, never to rise again

Towards the queen the last of the brave ones wandered
To terminate this creature non-divine
The loss of troops forced her powers to release the magic
Uncontrolled that had wasted a thousand soul

The palace controlled by demons
Is the heart of all evil possessed
By the queen and her unholy servants
"If we destroy it, the earth will be ours
And it will bring us eternal existance
We'll pray for the gift of breeding
This is a game we can't concede
It is worth all the blood we may bleed"

We must close the gate so she can't return
We'll seal her fate, watch her temple burn
And we'll capture her soul in the chambers of crimson sleep
And there she will suffer eternally for what she has done to man

Part 10: ------------------------------------------------------- 36:55

We fought our way into her dwelling-place
We searched the corridors of this infernal maze
Wo seek our enemy the one to slay
We are the ones, we will not obey

A disillusioned servant with great knowledge in her secrets
We found him walking aimlessly trying to find his peace

He said:
"Cover her eyes, they are the root of her inhuman forces
Then she's just the child you thought she were
Disconnecting all her sources."

They found a way to blind her and it could cost some lives
But they must seal the entry from where all evil derives

Two of the brave ones were sent to distract her
While the others made their way to behind her throne
She saw her enemies for the last time
As their leader covered her eyes
We saw the return of innocence, the symbol of purity we once knew

We carried her to the chambers
To forever lock up her soul
The uncovered arise and the crimson waters
Impaired all life's demise

And now the reborn earth
Blessed with the gift of birth
Can see her in this cage
That eternally preserves her rage

They captured all her soldiers
And forever encaged their cries
They had found a new leader to worship
A king with her clear-blue eyes
