Hades Pluton

I dreamt that I was lying on the bottom

of the dark and never-ending sea,

on a bed that my dead lover was preparing

with his own skeleton for me...

("...bring us a goat and we'll show you the way

straight through the realm of the fallen and slain...")

I sensed the wretched spectres of the drowned

staring across from some distant shore,

and in my sadness I drew closer,

to condole and somewhat to implore...

I am like the doubtful kiss of a corpse

or maybe the kiss of an ancient stone.

Yes, it's like kissing some marble statue

that has neither warmth nor life of its own...

("...down, further down, where the gloom becomes sound,

on to the cell where your love might be found...")

COVER THE MIRRORS, FRAGILE HAS DIED,

LEAVING BUT A STARLESS RUIN BEHIND!

SHATTER THE MIRRORS, SO THAT HE CAN NEVER BE CALLED

BACK FROM THE BLESSED SILENCE OF HIS SACRED VAULT...

No, no, no...-put an end to the show!

I am going back to the land where the bone-flowers grow,

to "the wild, weird clime that lieth, sublime,

out of Space - out of Time"...

See the shape, but can't see through,

no-one can ever hate me as well as I do.

Know when to throw a laugh, know how to force a smile,

whatever the intention...-I'm such a "friendly" lie!

("...bring us only this goat and we'll lead you to him,

it shall open the gates, so we can sneak you in...")

"Bring us a goat and we'll show you the way

straight through the realm of the fallen and slain.

Down, further down, where the gloom becomes sound,

on to the cell, where your love might be found...

Bring us only this goat and we'll lead you to him,

it will open the gates, so we can sneak you in.

Oh, it's cold and so dark here,

and you must keep in mind,

no-one can get you out, if you overstep time...!"

Sister of Charity

A new day for a mission

Another sunrise in your heart

Gimme tears of the wrong

The hate of convicts

The glamour of the damned

Rule of Benedict

I've never seen a dawn like this before

Tears on the night turn to diamonds in your eyes

In the face of the world's ugliness

Sister of charity

Remains a mystery

Love shines over aggression

Another wound heals in your heart

Gimme fears of the strong

The warfare politics

The decay of the west

Rule of Benedict

I've never seen a dawn like this before

Tears on the night turn to diamonds in your eyes

In the face of the world's ugliness

Sister of charity

Remains a mystery

Fragile Dreams

"Tonight your soul sleeps, but one day you

will feel real pain, maybe then you will see

me as I am,

A fragile wreck on a storm of emotion"

Countless times I trusted you,

I let you back in,

Knowing... Yearning... you know

I should have run... but I stayed

Maybe I always knew,

My fragile dreams would be broken for you.

Today I introduced myself,

To my own feelings,

In silent agony, after all these years,

They spoke to me... after all these years

Maybe I always knew...

Shroud of False

We are just a moment in time,

A blink of an eye,

A dream for the blind,

Visions from a dying brain,

I hope you don't understand

For Your Demons

Did you fall into that raven night

With sigh and woe and lonely path ?

This song is for the demons

That haunted you in those loveless lonely nights

And for the shadows that stained your soul

For the echoes of your loss

This song is for your forgiveness

For the sadness I knifed in your heart

For the road that lies ahead

With fear and hope, loss and salvation

Did you wake with a sigh and not a smile, did you ?

Did you hear the ravens woe in this exaulted night ?

This very night

This song is for the demons

That haunted me in those loveless lonely nights

And for the shadows that stained my soul

For the echoes of my loss

This song is for my forgiveness

For the sadness you knifed in my heart

For the road that lies ahead

With fear and hope, loss and salvation
