Beware the beast of man For he is the devils pawn Alone among gods primates He kills for sport, lust or greed The sacred scrolls… The truth unfolds… Chorus: Shun him… or become like him Shun him… the beast of man Let him not breed in great numbers For he will make a desert of his home and yours Shun him… drive him back into his jungle lair For he is the harbinger of death

This liquid vision of euphoria Living a life on borrowed time Paying the price of immortality Desperately avoiding our fate Lead me through the halls of tortured souls Alone, forlorn…human dignity dethroned Forevermore – A life never ending Time stands still as the immortals keep on breeding The future is locked within us All we need is the key Crying at the fountain of youth Eternal life is killing me Triumphant in chariots they ride On this arena of the undead Another lap of honour for the… Vacant galleries Lead me through the halls of tortured souls Alone, forlorn…human dignity dethroned Forevermore – A life never ending Time stands still as the immortals keep on breeding

Divine queen of evil Sowing her seeds of hate Mistress of pain Diva satanica - Master of temptation Medusa... abuser... both beast and beauty Seducer... she'll use you... bring you to your knees Blinded by her infinite beauty you are lured into the temple The smell of incense burning this carnal pleasure yearning Bride of satan Transgress the rules of this world Too late you realize this love is ripping you apart Medusa... abuser... both beast and beauty Seducer... she'll use you... as fodder for her dreams Drinking the blood Eating the flesh She's getting high on you Watching you die gives her a thrill ...There is always more blood to spill...

The human blood is far too thin The life in it much too fragile DNA code twisted into form An ancient dream will now be reborn Demonic! Science! A high price for a passion so intense Demonic! Science! This world no longer makes any sense Save the best – strip away the rest Every weakness, every bleakness will be erased New flesh for a new world! Men in white clothes performing the ultimate test This is the era – this is the time A new dawn arrives…

Symbolical and mystical Between life and death we're torn A constant struggle Like an apocrypha Nobody can be certain A thousand days, spent in hell The ultimate sacrifice Your voyage starts With a question mark But the distant future Will not tell Bury me an angel Set my black soul free!! Blackened chariots Bearing evil souls Ride the surface of burning holes Nocturnal…traveller You represent the ruined spirit Symbolical and mystical You shall be damned for all time

Spiritual Isolation – The ultimate frustration Scratch the surface, turn another page The ugly truth or another pretty lie You deceived me, I believed you Why did everything go… So wrong… For so long… So the truth comes out at last I'm dead inside (I'm burning up) A hollow shell (My private hell) In my own misery You leave me to dwell Then we were young and strong Now everything is wrong Did you want me, did you need me Could you not say you believed me? Everything we had is gone… Like an old forgotten song The deceiver and believer Now everything is… So wrong…for so long.

Weak and sick I crawl In the dust of past mistakes Leaving for the darkness Of tears and cold heartaches Suffer in this grief Of forever burning hate The ashes of my life By the torment you create On my knees…remembering The wasted years of dark insanity The rage increases fast As the memories eat me alive God, I wish this to end But I'm not prepared to die No more a human being Just a fool of anxiety Unable to escape The darkest insanity

From the womb, to the tomb An eternal struggle for the holy truth We are not the first, nor shall we be the last We shall be followed by thousands more Study the scriptures – Intensify the faith The works of men much greater than you or I From the cradle to the grave Thousands of immoral souls just waiting to be saved! Pilgrim man – What are you searching for? Believe the tales when everything else fails Pilgrim man – Deep in your heart you know Your faith is already bought and sold All my life I served the cross Always believing my God was a just one I maimed for you – I killed for you But looking back at my life I just don't know anymore…

Trapped in a downward spiral of pain Horrific memories, your life flashing by There is no life left for you to live You've had your share and more Act of transfusion – blood child! Transmigrate into the future or the past Eternal damnation awaits you my love In the kingdom of the sick and the rotting dead You will suffer excruciating pain You shall now reap the twisted fruit Of what you once sowed Transparent – revealing the lies Transmutation – What you have become Act of transfusion – blood child! Transmigrate into the future or the past Transmigration macabre

Fly with me on a starlit sky I'll set you free… Yes, it can be A dream unchased is a life at waste Never let them conquer your pride Our love is warm here Like the image of a distant sun This star will always shine And never, ever fade away Fly on…Silverwing Fly with me…Stay free…Silverwing Seeking truths in spirit skies Which one of you will guide me tonight? The milky way tastes sour, Has heaven lost its power? So let us set sail on this sea of dreams The moon gets lost in the morning sun Just let the spinning wheel spin And let your life begin

Standing at the bridge of destiny So long since I tasted fear Lurking in the darkest holes Awaiting my minds weakest moment Old words from an old world Against the laws of the nature They say the truth is overrated Wall of anger corrupts my thought Standing at the bridge of destiny Show me a sign… On the verge of losing my sanity Free my soul… My inner demons torture me Flapping their wings in my face Damn you! You twisted illusion I am no longer afraid See through their liquid souls Evil eyes that will hypnotise You can no longer hurt me I am my own worst enemy Unleash the trapped souls of the dead Spirits since long forgotten Guardians of the lost faith Destined for glory? Watch them all turn into sand And the wind blow them away Wisdom pours into my soul …endlessly…
