Symphonies of the Night

A fading paper sheet Once plain white and unmeaningly Love left a printed trace Of something that may never be alive again Hell to the heavens It fills my mind with heat I raise my hands against these shutting gates Opening clouds above me My raging wrath resounds into the heavens Walls within walls won't hold my mortal eyes from you Hecate Sacred Goddess Hell to the heavens Betrayers Sorcerer Godless Hell to the heavens Wounds within wounds won't hold my mortal eyes from you Lies within lies won't hold my mortal tongue from speaking verity It fills my wits with blaze These holy men arriving in my cold cell Opening sky above me I wage a war for life beyond the heavens Hate within hate won't hold my mortal eyes from you There's been no crime My words plain and unmeaningly I am innocent I swear I am And so I long of going back to be

I knew so well those eyes I know so well what they won't tell Freeze in the window light You've been too long away I left you heartsick in the morning just to come again at dark Scattered poems on the floor is all I left behind This fading earth This heavy dark-blue sky around me Im laying the night awake forsaken and mistaken Against my life I hold this silver blade in my hand Who am I to think you'll wait for me on the other side My paradise was never here This hopeless fight amongst the living I fear that age and death someday brings you to decay Coloured with the death of man A hundred years of wait and drain Sick with hatred sick with pain Your patience is wearing thin Why try to be patient with life Once so promising but yet so vulnerable This fading earth on the other side I pray you'll wait for me on the other side

Be not afraid Glorious angel in the dark owns an armoured heart No the ligth is turning grey Our fate becomes an open grave Souls of heroes dead and gone forgotten in a tale All these men who swore to fight They swore to follow in my light Fallen on the forest bed Those leaves will cover every trace Seventy articles of accusation La Pucelle d'Orléans Divine devotion The voice within my head Will lead us through the darkness And confort us asleep Oh let me live Oh let me live Voices voices devil's spears Raised the army of Jeanne D'Arc You must burn at the stake You will perish She will perish Inqusituin secrecy Exposed heretc witchery Hundred years of war and grief We spill our blood on halcyon fields Fallen on a golden bed Fine millet hide my blood spilled face Voices voices men consent Burn her burn her at the stake My dreams of you will lead me through My dreams of you lead me thtough May 1431 Between the walls that imprison me I seek divine guidance I embody the infinite And I know it will be day

Galswintha of the Visigoths Promised the King of Newstria Love him until the day of death What did she know What a man was he Galswintha sleeping all alone Life in the hands of Fredegund Jealousy blowing up her wits She put an end to the princess' life Mercy there is no mercy within anger Darkness there's only darkness in your blindness Burning you will be burning For your cruelty Envious eyes mistress of cruelty Angel a dark angel in her chamber Fearless a maiden fearless as she strangles Burning you will be burning for your cruelty Envious eye mistress of cruelty

I feel these needles in my skin like savage wrath She holds me in her arms I'm drifting in the dark This fever of my heartt this burning fever drag Every breath I take will make you hunt me more I have no tongue to scream My eyes deluded black Symphony of thr night Are we leaving tonight Am I aching to love you in the night You feel these needles in your skin like savage wrath I hold her in my arms she's drifting somewhere in the dark This fever of her heart this burning fever drag She has no tongue to speak Are we living to die Camilla all your rage will turn into sweet love Are you living to die Am I her just to be your sacrifice Symphony of the night Are we living to die Am I here juste to be your sacrifice Symphony of the night You sense the coldness of your skin like icy glass You feel your empty shadow like a faint painful call They pass inside my wounded soul like mortal love Hold me in my darkest hour Are we living to die Thine earth now springs mine fadeth

Sweethy heavenly harmonies raise from the warbling lute Music for the hopeless lovers Oh Valerian let her be For the fair and the pure holy soul of a dame He shall swear to obey the angels praise Oh Cecilia where's your angel What thou art we know not Hear this delightful sound of heaven Will soothe her lips with melodies Oh Sweet Cecilia where is your angel What thou seek we know not Violins cry in desperation Senses seduced with melodies

Han ha' har som silkitrad Auga bla som hau Den dagen gloymer eg allri Eg ut af uindanga sag deg der sta Eg gloymer allri deg Eg gloymer allri deg Tempt the winds Break the waves That ravished place Mysterious maze Lone sands swallow men Traces annihilated Nothing in my hands can break this stony ground This blackness of the days Imprints in me a disillusion Bless the men with silver Bless them with the rays of sun Goddess of the desert Sway your veils for pagan men From the north to lone sands Mighty rivers driving Tempting reverie He's gone and away No need to unsay Far-off oceans swallow men Longboats annihilated Nothing underneath my feet until turn to fertile soil This coldness of the nights bewitched me with a disillusion Love to see marvel Dancing eerily We set sail to lone sands To the lone sands

I looked for love and then I found disgrace My life dissolved into an empty shade As dead as stones in the moundering wall His heart was a silent grave My throat in tunes so sadly expressed What grief my chest so painfully appressedFor your misery I will not sacrifice My holy virgin pride Ring out the bells let my mourning echo through the walls My heart sleeps so lonely My ghost will seek you at night Calm wasthe day though I was trembling hard Calling me to explain to him at court yard Then I refused to marry him at once For his heart was sick with hate The duke screaming insanely at the court Have her beaded for she denied the lord Her execution a blind man's deed Beheaded her for her faith I have not sinned nor am I insane Yet you will have me beheaded for believing in the good and honest My cause not defended You caused my death You stabbed my soul and took away the bare earth under my feet From here you will be the one to slowly decay night by night When you see my sad guiltless ghost walking upon you I will carry my head and leave it before your feet My ghost will seek you at night My angel will seek you at night My ghost will seek you at night My angel will seek you tonight

As the deus of night arose I remenber yielding fire in your eyes Only hoof prints in the mud All of you is here with me like a scar that cannot heal Soon as you were gone thence I learned to love It was heaven sent the voice inside you ah For you the nightshade has bacome deceiving All of you here with me Yet I know you defy the dark A rainbow in the sky shines on your solitary Barbaria In every cry of every man lies an abyss of despair You throw the sand against the wind then i all returns to you All of me is within you like the sacred truth Soon as you were gone thence you learned to love All of you here with me Yet I know you defy Angels will shine on your solitary Barbaria

O maiden pale Ophelia Your skin is white like diamonds in the snow But they know Madness and hysteria turned your flowers into stone Fleurs-de-lis Sweets to sweet I can hear them mourning at my grave Ophelia Can you feel this madbess in my veins Inside my veins Love and pain This sighing fate She fades away I fade away into black waters Confident black river strams tangle in your hair White veils merge to snowbells like deadly poetry All around you fleurs-de-lis on a white mortal bed Maiden thou shalt not sin Virgin suppress your will Forces seduce your lind Haunting a damsel's sleep

I came home in May with a glad heart Nothing there that could cause me grief Nothing could make me sorrow-full and bitter Nothing could make my head hang down Eileen my white flower of the blackberry Whiter than lilies The dew of a rose Eileen my bright flower of the blackberry My summer breeze A poem in the spring Woman why are you crying out your eyes now Are there any other wooers around Woman the nightingale sang me a tale tonight That is not soothing music to my ears So green her eyes Burning red her hair A hundred rings of thorns around my neck There's a thousand strings strangling my chest Is tu ma ghra A hundred rings of thorns around my neck There's a thousand strings srangling my chest Eileen my white flower of the blacberry Whiter than lilies The dew of a rose Eileen Is tu ma ghra Eileen my death in the spring

Well I'm down on my knees again And I pray to the only one Who has the strength To bear the pain To forgive all the things that I've done Oh Girl Lead me into your darkness When this world is trying it's hardest To leave me unimpressed Just one caress From you and I'm blessed When you think you've tried every road Every avenue Take one more look At what you found old And in it you'll find something new I'm shying from the light I always loved the night And now you offer me eternal darkness I have to believe that sin Can make a better man It's the mood that I am in That left us back where we began
