The night keeps on closing in on the day A nightingale sings his song of farewell You better hide for her freezing hell On cold wings she's coming You better keep moving For warmth, you'll be longing Come on just feel it Don't you see it? You better believe it. When she embraces Your heart turns to stone She comes at night when you are all alone And when she whispers Your blood shall run cold You better hide before she finds you Whenever she is raging She takes all life away Haven't you seen? Haven't you seen? The ruins of our world Whenever she is raging She takes all life away Haven't you seen? Haven't you seen? The ruins of our world She covers the earth with a breathtaking cloak The sun awakes and melts it away The world now opens its eyes and sees The dawning of a new day On cold wings she's coming You better keep moving For warmth, you'll be longing Come on just feel it Don't you see it? You better believe it. Whenever she is raging She takes all life away Haven't you seen? Haven't you seen? The ruins of our world top OUR FAREWELL In my hand A legacy of memories I can hear you say my name I can almost see your smile Feel the warmth of your embrace But there is nothing but silence now Around the one I loved Is this our farewell? Sweet darling you worry too much, my child See the sadness in your eyes You are not alone in life Although you might think that you are Never thought This day would come so soon We had no time to say goodbye How can the world just carry on? I feel so lost when you are not at my side But there is nothing but silence now Around the one I loved Is this our farewell? Sweet darling you worry too much, my child See the sadness in your eyes You are not alone in life Although you might think that you are So sorry your world is tumbling down I will watch you through these nights Rest your head and go to sleep 'Cause my child, this not our farewell. This is not our farewell. top CAGED These are the darkest clouds They have surrounded me Now I find myself alone caught in a cage There's no flower I can found in here Not withering Or pale to me Everyone with a friendly face Seems to hide some secret inside He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind My heart is covered With thoughts entangled How could it ever have felt so real? Is there a place more lonely than I feel within? Could I have seen? Could I have known? I just took it as the truth Everyone with a friendly face Seems to hide some secret inside He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind Always there to remind me It keeps me from believing That someone might be there Who’ll frees me and never ever leaves me He told me he loved me While he laughed in my face He just led me astray He took my virtue I feel so cold inside Sorrow has frozen my mind top THE PROMISE On behalf of her love She no longer sleeps Life had no longer meaning Nothing to make her stay She sold her soul away I held you tight to me You slipped away You promised to return to me And I believed, I believed After the night he died I wept my tears until they dried But the pain stayed the same I didn't want him to die all in vain I made a promise to revenge his soul in time I'll make them bleed down at my feet I held you tight to me You slipped away You promised to return to me And I believed, I believed Sometimes I wonder Could I have known about their true intentions? As the pain stayed the same I'm going to haunt them down all the way I made a promise to revenge his soul in time One by one they were surprised I held you tight to me You slipped away You promised to return to me And I believed, I believed top NEVER-ENDING STORY Armies have conquered And fallen in the end Kingdoms have risen Then buried by sand The Earth is our mother She gives and she takes She puts us to sleep In her light we'll awake We'll all be forgotten There's no endless fame But everything we do It's never in vain We're part of a story, part of a tale We're all on this journey No one's to stay Where ever it's going What is the way? Forests and deserts Rivers, blue seas Mountains and valleys Nothing here stays While we think we witness We're part of the scene This never-ending story Where will it lead to? The earth is our mother She gives and she takes But she is also a part A part of the tale We're part of a story, part of a tale We're all on this journey No one's to stay Oh where ever it's going What is the way? We're part of a story, part of a tale Sometimes beautiful and sometimes insane No one remembers how it began. top DECEIVER OF FOOLS He feeds on fear He feeds on pain He rules again With growing hate he will reign The faith on earth Our lights in the darkness He still wants to see There's always a spark on the path If you just believe He told the tale so many times About the dream not meant to be In a world of the free He plays with your mind As faith for the future faded fast He grows strong with their displeasure It sets him free Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules with fear Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules again He feeds on fear Poisons the truth To gain their faith To lead the way To a world of decay He rules your heart He'll sell your soul to the grave Without a hesitation to make He belongs to the dark Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules with fear Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules again Please awake And see the truth He can only be If you believe what he tells you Remember who you are What you stand for There will always be a way Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules with fear Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules again In my heart there is a place In my heart there is a trace Of a small fire burning A sheltering ray shines through this night Although it's small, it's bright But darkness is lurking He will sell your soul to bitterness and cold Fear him Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools He rules with fear Deceiver of hearts Deceiver of fools Shall he rule again? top INTRO Instrumental top DARK WINGS Why was I one of the chosen ones?

Will you stay? Will you be here forever? Never go away?
