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.
