Lightbringer
With a lantern in your hand, you protect our lives
By dawn, you begin your vigilant watch
On our paths, you are guarding our human lives
You are shining in armor like a torch
Blessed heaven, then to dust and clay
From Eden forever sent away
You used to be an angel, gleaming morning star,
You were the one, the noblest far and wide
You brought hope for all the people down on earth
With your help, they can keep joy and mirth
Shining one, holding a lantern high on the sky
Lightbringer, your name is Lucifer
He who has fallen for his pride
Down on earth this time he must stride
Lightbringer, you are supposed to carry light
it has somehow faded out from our world
Lightbringer, you used to be a holy knight
Come to us you should have saved us from the netherworld
You have raised your pride above the Holy Lord
You’ve sowed wrath with an iron sword
Now you're stuck in the kingdom of eternal dread
Fallen down to the realm of the dead
You who was a keeper of peace on this world
Now you’re serving in the underworld
Falling, falling down from Heaven
Falling, falling down from Heaven
You’ve fallen, fallen down from Heaven
Fallen, fallen down from Heaven
There is not as much tenderness as it used to be
There is not so much compassion, charity, and glee
We are missing guidance of your spiritual light
We are lost in the profound darkness of a pitch-black night
There is not as much tenderness as it used to be
There is not so much compassion, charity, and glee
We are missing guidance of your spiritual light
You have fallen into the dust, you’re a parasite
He's become the icon of decay
That's why in the hell he must stay
Lightbringer, you are supposed to carry light,
it has somehow faded out from our world
-- it has faded from the world
Lightbringer, you used to be a holy knight.
Come to us you should have saved us from the netherworld
-- please save us
Lightbringer, you are supposed to carry light
it has somehow faded out from our world
-- it has faded from the world
Lightbringer, you used to be a holy knight
Come to us, come set our hearts on fire
Because our light is gone
So we will light our hearts again
Our light is gone

Pharmacist
He dwells in a lovely city
He has only a ramshackle store
Lengthy beard and lengthy mantle
He’s stirring liqueurs, mixing them all
If you dare to enter inside
He makes a life worth living for
He has ointments for the human spirit
Sanative herbs for your pride
And if you sometimes feel pain in your heart
Cure for the love he prescribes
He has ointments for the human spirit
Sanative herbs for your pride
And if you sometimes feel pain in your heart
Cure for the love he can prescribe
Ladies austere, stupid dickheads
He gladly treats all aforesaid
Selling lots of different lotions
Mixing always the right potions
A secret medley of additives
Only knows the pharmacist
He has ointments ...
If you're troubled with a problem
Just go to him and take your gram
Hurry up to take your treatment
This cure gives you an easement
All known rascals enter his door
Even people disgraced by law
If they consent to the healing
Honest people are leaving
Potion man, please wonder elixir give to me
I will purchase your commodities with any fee
For our hearts and our souls, for our suffering
You're the one who finally can stop all the torturing
Potion man ...
Potion man ...
He has ointments for the human spirit
Sanative herbs for your pride
And if you sometimes feel pain in your heart
Cure for the love he prescribes
He has ointments for the human spirit
Sanative herbs for your pride
And if you sometimes feel pain in your heart
Cure for the love he can prescribe
He has ointments for the human spirit
Sanative herbs for your pride
And if you sometimes feel pain in your heart
Cure for the love he can prescribe

Falling

Falling
Breathlessly falling, you’re a gust of wind
In my ears howling, I hear your calling - near
You are the abyss, my life leads to this
I am still falling, hold me tight, my love, please
I’m searching for my fate, I cannot do more than trust you
I'm seeking credence and I found your deep faith
In the air whirling, the music is playing,
sounding in my soul, I barely sense the tone
I'm dancing with you, all at once alone
And I feel mundane, I need you as my keystone
I’m searching for my fate ...
Breathlessly falling, you are my haven
where I do feel safe, while I am flying - high
You are the baby I have in my care
While you are falling, we will start again from nowhere
I’m searching for my fate ...
I’m searching for my fate ...
Don't let me, my beloved, smash into rocks below
If you are waiting down there
If you’re there for me, let me, please let me know

Desires in mist

Desires in mist
Though you are standing close to me
Within reach of longing arms
I feel thrilled while looking at your face
Emotions will be erased
I can see something in your eyes
Is it love or is it hate
In my dreams, you're longing for my soul
I feel out of control
CHORUS
Before the dawn will take us both
Tell me just one more gentle word
If you will kiss me or you won’t
Don’t let me wait for you too long
When I am silent and you speak
About our future that you seek
I don’t let cease your desires
Together we build empires
There are grim ships coming back home
Back from the voyage of lost souls
Lovers with burning hearts on board
Finally released from their bonds
I wish you were here
I am standing near
My heart can explode
Because of your lust
It is just my will
What’s holding you back
Never let go
Be sure I won’t
You are more distant to me now
You are farther than the stars
Flashing light somewhere in the pitch-black dark
The only source of solace
You are more distant to me now
More than top of our blue sky
Just one word and I’ll come back to you
Now I know what I should do
Close your eye and let me lead
I will give you all you need
Give me your hand I’ll guide you through
Together we can make it new
Close your eye ...
Before the dawn ...
When I am silent ...
There are grim ships ...
I wish you were here - I am standing near
My heart can explode - because of my lust
It is just our will - what’s holding us back
Never let go - Be sure I won’t
Standing on the bare cliff, my mind's whirling
The ocean is roaring, there is no way back
For the last time, I will shout out your name
Wildly despairing, I don't want to…
Standing on the bare cliff, my mind's whirling
The ocean is roaring, there is no way back
For the last time, I will shout out your name
Wildly despairing, I don't want to jump

Fear

Fear
We must not go to the forest alone
In the marsh, there lives an old evil crone
Shadows are lurking there among the trees
In despair, you fall hard down to your knees
Plenty of sharp teeth, two red glowing eyes
just about this monster, you dream every night
It’s very astute, it lurks in disguise
Looking for a crevice through which it could slip inside
Fear is your best friend, that oversees you
Warning you before the peril we all knew
Fear is your prison, where you are shackled
You’re locked in a cage, your mind is blackened
Who is afraid, little one, behold his own destination
You don't have to, little one, face your dark imagination
There’s somebody to help
Protect you like a whelp
Cause in mystery void
You could get paranoid
Running away, stones (and)rumbling under your feet
Rapid pulse, heavy steps echo on a void street
You must stay calm and keep your mind clear
Bravery‘s contending against the fear
Who is afraid, little one, ...
Who is afraid, little one, ...
You are going to face the monster from your head, too
Just that you won’t know it’s a fake or if it's true
Bravery contending against a dread
Courage will help you against this threat
Cause of the starving wolf, who lives there lone
We must not go to the forest alone

Once

Once
When you are lost or when you are forlorn
Just call me and I will come to your door
Magic stone that can heal and ease your pain
I'll give it to your hands to end your bane
And when you leave your sweet childhood abode
You’ll come to search for me at a crossroads
Follow my footprints, they’ll lead you to me
When you get tired rest under a tree
So many springs and falls, you’d been on your own
Before you found me on a green wet moss by the road
I will end your anguish, now you won’t be alone
Come meet me, don't languish, I'll kiss you, do not moan
When the tears in your eyes have a bitter taste
They crush down on the ground with sudden haste
Turn around, you will see, there I will stand
Don't you cry, calm you down and give me your hand
And when your smile fades out from your crimson lips
Then you’ll feel trembling in your maiden fingertips
Write down our secrets in a letter to me
Write them down with charcoal so that no one can ever see
So many springs and falls...
One day when your horses are old and lame
We will cease playing this innocent game
Rings from our childhood, we’ll throw them (P!) into the pond
Thus we will break our everlasting bond
I’ll find you snuggled tight down on the ground
I’ll touch you tenderly, you know you can come around
Silently, lest I should break your calm sleep
You’ve been exhausted because of your endless weep
When you give birth to a child and I will not be there
Someone else will try to relieve your painful blare
You go away with him. Where to? You won't tell to me
You will live with him now, I won't know where you are
You’re not mine anymore, I must be brave and strong
It makes me cry, cause we were together for so long
I saw you growing up from a girl to a belle
This is our last goodbye, take care and fare thee well
When you get lost at the crossroads of life
Engrave my name to a stone with a sharp knife
I’ll find you, I’ll show you a new direction
In spite of our time-born disaffection
As soon as you forget all about me
I’ll repel memories and I will flee
Then I will lay a white stone on your grave
This is our last goodbye, need to be brave

Skinchangers
You're chasing the high deers, the wild boars, you're a lord
You are free, you are smart, you are fast, alone, unpopular
Why is that me who lives in the skin of a wolf
While my greatest desire is to chase the flock of sheep up to the hills
CHORUS
You bring fear of death and you are frightening
As it was given to us so we are
Life of yours is in a sign of deep desolation
Who has given us this awful fate
And new dawns will always come after the nights
And the moon awakens beasts
It reveals the deep merciful night secret
From birth, we are doomed to cry
You're asking no more girls about true love you dream
When you're hungry then you're mad, in a man, you know, you will not change
I am the dragon with sharp claws, I can't resist the curse myself
Though I'm doing all I can, I will tear that maid in white as well
CHORUS
We just don't want you here, cause you are different
Sometimes you're an animal, sometimes you're human
Creatures from unknown lands, you are dangerous
People run aghast in fear far away from you
You're the breed of the serpent, you creep near to me
Though you changed your snakeskin inside you're the same
In two bodies one soul dwells, one mind which the story tells
It is in the human brain where's encrypted their own bane
I undress myself in the darkness, I don't wanna show my madness
And then in the skin of man, I turn into the whore who serves them all
Captured by dragon's claws, there’s just the two of us
Thy future pretty wife is strongly tied to a stake
In a while I'll stroke her with my breath tenderly
Then you would injure her you better burn yourself
Fire can't kill the dragon, I was born in hell's flames
I'll stop it just right now, I'll tear myself to shreds
Two teeth like a sharp saber penetrate a pounding heart
Slowly you let out one bitter drop of poison
In the sun in the moss for a while, I lie down
In the woods, you will find a girl that sleeps forever
I expelled from this land a wild pack of barking dogs
Only the freezing wind occasionally sobs
We are as good as you, we have our desires
You wished to find great love, instead, you walk alone
My fangs are stained with blood, no human died tonight
From your torn arteries life escapes the corpse
The eyes of the beast do not shine with little tears
Only the birds will fly singing mournful lullabies

Intruders
Into the night they crowl into the house of innocent
To arouse starry-eyed children from their sweet dreams
To take them from their parents, to humiliate them
In the name of their twisted faith they’ll break your mind
Stranger at night who are you?
Why have you covered your face?
Explain now your inducements
You can't hide the truth in guise
Stranger at night who are you?
Why are you creeping in disguise?
Tell me now your intentions
Speak fast ere my bullets fly...
In disguise, they bite into the heart of imprudent
Just to seize a power from poor people with low will
Whispered spite poisons your mind and then it breaks you down
Stay away from venomous lies on the bright side
Stranger at night who are you? ...
Speak fast ere my bullets fly forth
The weapon is pointing at you. What’s your choice? Say…
The weapon is pointing at you. One, two, three
The weapon is pointing at you. What’s your choice? Say…
The weapon is pointing at you. One, two, three
Stranger at night who are you? ...
Stranger at night who are you? ...

Letters to the front
Daddy, please, write me a letter, as I am longing for you
Every evening on the doorstep, I am looking out for you
Daughter, I’m coming home as soon as possible
I’ve met some enemies, I feel invincible
Over and over on the radio war news reports about the fight
I have to fear about your life, I suffer day and night
Sweet daughter, there’re still a few bullets in my gun
My mission on the enemy line’s not yet done
I heard the old devil laugh and yell
When I was marching to the gates of hell
They gave me a gun and an order to strike
But I was killing with an open dislike
Father, oh, but at war, there are usually two unfriendly sides
I'm not sure which is the right one, If you’re fighting for freedom
My daughter, I’ll tell you when you grow old
That despite the torment I learned to be bold
I heard the old devil laugh and yell
When I was marching to the gates of hell
They gave me a gun and an order to strike
So I was killing but without much pride
Father, in these concrete walls, there are many bullet holes
Footprints on the bloody floor, what happened a while ago?
My daughter, believe me, the world is not kind
You were young, now you’re grown, make up your mind
Father, in these concrete walls, there are many bullet holes
People lying on the floor, they won't wake up anymore
Sometimes you wake up and the world has been changed
It has a deep scar and it will remain there
I heard the old devil laugh, and yell
When I was marching to the gates of hell
They gave me a gun and an order to strike
And I was killing with obvious pride
My conscience was gone when I got power
I locked myself in a golden tower
Since then I’ve lived nowhere but in my illusions
I deceived myself by many delusions
I ended up lying in mud and clay
And there I dreamed about your face and prayed
Grandfather, now you have three grandchildren
In the attic, they found your rifle hidden
They know you only from moth-eaten pictures
Yet they keep asking me questions
They know you only from moth-eaten pictures
Yet they keep asking me questions
What am I supposed to tell them now?

Of love, of war, of blood
A handsome boy used to come to the girl‘s door
He brought her wildflowers and even more
He longed to marry her, be bride and groom
She did not want to be part of his doom
She sleeps in another’s bed to feel bliss
Where does her soul go when she sins like this?
The young man's heart’s aching bitterly now
But still he’s yearning to win her somehow
One evening he told her: „I beseech thee!“
„Thou art fair, my beloved, please marry me.“
„I shall not marry thee, thou had better drown”
„That's all that I have to say to thee now”
“Come and fight” the colonel’s drum called for war
The young boy readily to his fate swore
Thus he decided that he would enlist
To ease his heartache that still did persist
Hey! The mare tows the cart from the battlefield
Carrying bodies that will never heal
Hey! The blood flows down and into the streams
Verze 1: Witnessing deadmen’s life-long dreams
Verze 2: Washing away their life-long dreams

For war, the officers trained him there well
Uniform, helmet, a black leaden shell
Saber and musket, he was taught to wield
Hopefully, he won't die out in the field
Fourteen years now that the soldier had served
His boyish love in his heart he preserved
And when the enemies unleashed their hell
The only battle cry was the death knell
Hey! ...
The soldier struck down, lies there in the mud
Saber and quilted coat covered in blood
They found him lying, and they patched him up
Then sent him home, could he be saved by love?
Outside the village, the military carts
Girl’s tears are dripping and pain in their hearts
The soldier commanded his soul to God
Before he laid his eyes on his beloved
Hey! ...
“Why did not thou, dear, want me for thy bride?”
“Why did thou rather take Death for a guide?”
“I could have had a nice young handsome man”
“I didn't have to feed the sick old man”
“I say, thou, jump in as the river flows”
“Give up thy heart to the black depths below”
“Thou chose the evil man, the choice was thine”
“And sentenced the good boy as well to die”
“Thou chose the evil man, the choice was thine”
“And sentenced the good boy as well to die”
