Respice Finem

Screaming birds, spread your wings, fly to town, where it's warm Because soon there’ll be snow, lucky one who has a home You don't look back you don't hold the line You are damned, why did you leave before wintertime? Little bird fly away keep on crying your song Hide your heart little bird do not let it bleed too long Thousand desserts, dry and dead, hard as stone, cold as rock You have lost, all too much, you're not able to stop But before you survive the night You have to submit to the day Hold fast to dreams, cause dreams can die Hold fast to dreams, cause dreams can fly Never leave before wintertime No shelter, no rescue just leftover wine No dream to fight for, no secret to hide But before you survive the night You have to submit to the day Hold fast to dreams, cause dreams can die Hold fast to dreams, cause dreams can fly Never leave before wintertime

At least it was a thin tine A walking in the rain with untied shoes Survivors of a dark time Sing the song (we've) got nothing to lose Walk through the misty fog, climb it all rock by rock To meet the queen of the shadow ryche Return of pilgrimage to offer sacrifice Far away from the twilight where the sun never shines Return of pilgrimage from a lost paradise We found what it needs to be saved return the pilgrimage for twice Oho shadow ryche, oho shadow ryche It's always lost and found and then Find sorrow and lose faith What a piece of work is man No fear any more in any case Walk through the misty fog, climb it all rock by rock To meet the queen of the shadow ryche Return of pilgrimage to offer sacrifice Far away from the twilight where the sun never shines Oho shadow ryche, oho shadow ryche Return of pilgrimage to offer sacrifice Far away from the twilight where the sun never shines Return of pilgrimage from a lost paradise We found what it needs to be saved return the pilgrimage for twice Oho shadow ryche, oho shadow Oho shadow ryche, oho shadow ryche

Your shadow is big, taller than you Dream's broken, love is untrue The storm blows and pushes your fly Leaves on the tree falls down to die Water rush along the past Nobody follow your dreadful cry You will find emptiness at last Eternally a hopeless sigh Do not forget the end This end is going to be your friend Whatever you give, however you live Whatever you get, what you regret Do not forget the end This end is going to be your friend when it comes to the end Welcome a friend's timing: Respice Finern Time is knocking at your door Thoughts breaking out of you What else are you waiting for Just do what you want to do A silent river full of time, a silent river A silent river friend of mine, a silent river Do not forget the end This end is going to be your friend Whatever you give, however you live Whatever you get, what you regret Do not forget the end This end is going to be your friend when it comes to the end Welcome a friends timing: Respire Finem

Her bosom feeding Poisonous serpents At last they took A piece of her heart It was too late The evil found her It was too late Took her apart If you fraternize with rats you'll catch their disease If you fraternize with rats you'll catch their disease Make your decision speed against the wind Make your vision come to live Live your decision speed against the wind Make your vision come to live Her bosom feeding Poisonous serpents At last they took A piece of her heart Sup with the devil Did you know the lie We are here to revel Struggle and kiss the sky If you fraternize with rats you'll catch their disease If you fraternize with rats you'll catch their disease Make your decision speed against the wind Make your vision come to live Live your decision speed against the wind Make your vision come to live

Come to the land of the speaking thoughts There is a place where letters are free A world of freedom and dignity Where every single word's allowed to be Eternally onwards moves it all And into nothing no word should fall Be brave, fight back, don't fear the misty fog Live like, a human, you won’t die like a dog Through all the tunes, through all the borders The spell of flames against all waters Eagles fly lonely and no sun is as hot Hot as the fire of one own single thought Eternally onwards moves it all And into nothing no word should fall Be brave, fight back, don't fear the misty fog Live like, a human, you won’t die like a dog

No wonder, you get what you give No doubt, this is not the last She's hope and a self-fulfilling No doubt, let the end be the beginning She had to play, to play her role, to keep the noises going down, going down Ad this and heaven too Freedom is not a gift to hide All this and heaven too Hell where is your strike? No wonder you get what you need No doubt come in from the cold She's born to be non-violent No doubt to be self-confident I have to play, to play my role, to keep the noises going down, going down All this and heaven too Freedom is not a gift to hide All this and heaven too Hell where is your strike? We have to play, to play our role, to keep the noises going down, going down All this and heaven too Freedom is not a gift to hide All this and heaven too Hell where is your strike? Freedom is not a gift to hide Freedom is not a gift to hide

When a raven knocks at your door Let him in to rest his wings And he would never, nevermore Lose a feather when sitting still The legend tells it that way, but it is true: If a raven lost its plume beside you You will go over yonder, very soon It was the first of November After Halloween, I remember I heard wings beating And it felt like cheating Was not cool to break the rule With my head full of sorrows How to start, how to end Upcoming tomorrows Evermore I adore being with you spoke the raven Evermore I take care of your live I'm a black guardian, a shadow that's what I am To be on your side before you going to fly Something knocked at my window No one was there But close to me flapped a fly A black bird touched my hair He took a seat on my chair Where I used to sit weak and weary Eyes stared at me so bore He spoke to me so dreary Evermore I adore being with you Evermore I take care of your live I'm a black guardian, a shadow that's what I am To be on your side before you going to fly Now he left my pain unbroken Took his beak out of my heart He will leave no plume as token And I can fly with my raven, my guard

Waves crash the stormy birth The creatures go a shore Eternal voyager left the cursed Came back to where they were before In the depth of the slimy sea Where the lords of chaos abound The water, mother of all Found the way to get out You will never swim the same river again Cause water will never - never be the same, the same No more ghosts of the past, no no no no more No more ghosts of the past, no no no no more Who will redeem the souls The lost in the world behind The tortured, hopeless creatures Only one aim in mind Health is better than wealth Keeps as alive and then When time knocks on your door Go and get it white you can You will never swim the same river again Cause water will never - never be the same, the same No more ghosts of the past no no no no more No more ghosts of the past no no no no more No more ghosts of the past no no no no more No more ghosts of the past no no no no more Leave the shadows behind To gain the road to life Leave the shadows behind To gain the road to live

Old folks, young folks I have learned a lot You know what I am, I know what I’m not We are not rich we are not poor Not young enough to cry not old enough to fall There is a law of music telling us to go go go Law of rock, keep on singing and shouting Law of rock, unique minor key Law of rock, this song is never ending Law of rock, unique minor key We have borrowed years and time has lost his faith A thought is not a deed all it need is a first pace We ain't unlike the day we ain't unlike the night We ain't even dark, ain't even light There is a law of music telling us to go go go Law of rock, keep on singing and shouting Law of rock, unique minor key Law of rock, this song is never ending Law of rock, unique minor key

Thank you for all my dearest swan I've got to go back to where I was born Thank you thank you for all my, my dearest swan I've got to go back to where I was born, Son of the knight keeper of the grail Leave the shore to cure the lady's pain But there is one thing she had to promise him Never to ask for his name So many dark days alone, when she saw the knight So many dark days alone, she felt in love at first sight, love at first sigh Never ask him for his name, beware There will be no return Never ask him for his name, you got to beware There will be no return She's weak in mind she wants to know She's dying for asking for his name Loherangrin, the swan appears Took the brave knight brought fears and tears This tragic word is not permitted in this love affair Divine sphere and vale of tears can't be a pair Never ask him for his name, beware There will be no return Never ask him for his name, you got to beware There will be no return And a white dove cried and landed on the swan Leading Lohengrin to the Holy Grail to Parsifal Never ask him for his name, beware There will be no return Never ask him for his name, you got to beware There will be no return Thank you for all my, my dearest swan I've got to go back to where I was born
