My father died today A lovely melody is fading My memories will stay For months he was waiting
For you dark brother of sleep Limbs are crippled, pain can’t be eased Decline and illness creep Open doors for you, he is released
s my life a castle built on sand Did I hold a liar’s hand Walls of betrayal, roof of lies Oh I’m scared what if truth dies
Whatever words will tell Tales from heaven or from hell They’ll never change our past What is true will always last
His life lies in my hand A story from an unknown dark land Happened many years ago In a town where silent winds blow
Ashes to ashes he claims Scattered pieces, nothing remains But a fading melody Some loving words in a diary
2. Die Stadt
Verloren ist die Stadt Die einst wie Gold geschimmert hat Verlassen ist die Stadt Die mich so lang beherbergt hat
Vernichtet ist die Stadt Seit ein kranker Geist gewьtet hat Dunkel liegt die Stadt Seit die Liebe sie verlassen hat
Ein klagender Wind durch dunkle Gassen weht Seufzend einzig er mein tiefes Leid versteht Im Tode vereint mit der einst stolzen Stadt Die ein kranker Geist vernichtet hat
Lieblich war die Stadt An die ein sanfter Hьgel sich geschmiegt hat Golden lag die Stadt Wenn ich sie von dort oben erblickt hab’
Geliebt hab ich die Stadt Wenn sie mich auch ausgestossen hat Verbunden mit der Stadt Selbst als ich sie verlassen hab
Ein klagender Wind durch dunkle Gassen weht Seufzend einzig er mein tiefes Leid versteht Im Tode vereint mit der einst stolzen Stadt Die ein kranker Geist vernichtet hat
3. Show Me The Way
It was a hard way to get here But now it seems so clear I'll find everything inside of me
Mind body and soul Life love and healing Connect be connected Nine words to change your whole life
Oh mother, keeper of eternal truth
You show me the way You show me that everything I ever need in my whole life Lies there inside of me
Feeling useless and ashamed I was the one to blame Thought there's nothing good inside of me
Mind body and soul Life love and healing Connect be connected Nine words to change your whole life
Oh mother, seekers find truth in you
You show me the way, You show me that everything lies there inside of me
You show me the way You show me that everything I ever need in my whole life Lies there inside of me.
4. Brothers
In a night so long ago We made this eternal vow
We are brothers Raised by our mother’s loving hand We are brothers Forever together we will stand
Since the day that you were born I felt your special energy In your body painfully torn They are too blind they cannot see
We are brothers Raised by our mother’s loving hand We are brothers Forever together we will stand
Wherever you go, they listen to you A perfect body hides a perfect soul One day to come they’ll follow Eternal truth will be our highest goal
Be aware of your fate Your future looks black Fire in the air Burn!
We make this eternal vow Through us your love will grow Oh mother you will see Your knowledge sets us free
We are brothers Raised by our mother’s loving hand We are brothers Forever together we will stand
5. Seit Dem Anbeginn Der Zeit
Ihr leises Weinen dringt durch die Abendluft Ob sie nach meinem Trost und Beistand ruft?
Tief verbunden seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit Durch die eine Kraft die alle Wunden heilt Ich trag sie stets in mir
Voller Angst komm ich zu deinem Ort Sein Geist ist krank, sein Blick so wild, ich musste fort
Sind wir verbunden seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit? Durch welche Kraft? Wann lindert sie mein Leid? Trag ich sie auch in mir? Wir sind verbunden seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit Durch die eine Kraft die alle Wunden heilt Auch du trдgst sie in dir
Unsre Seelen sind vereint Seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit auch wenn ich dich verlier bleibst du ein Teil von mir
Unsre Seelen sind vereint Seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit Du weckst die Kraft in mir Ich bleibe ewiglich bei dir
Unsere Seelen sind vereint Seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit Noch kannst du es nicht verstehn Doch wirst du bald von mir geh’n
Unsere Seelen sind vereint Seit dem Anbeginn der Zeit Ich bin ein Teil von dir Und du ein Teil von mir
6. Remember The Promise
Like young birds in the sky they have to use Their own wings and fly But if you take them too high They will fall and die
Leave me alone
Oh brother Wake up, stand up, you are still living in a world of dreams My brother Wake up, stand up and join the keepers of the truth Oh brother Wake up, stand up, they are too weak alone it seems My brother Wake up, stand up, remember the promise of our youth
We will follow him to the sky so high We will never fall, we will never die You’re an eagle in the sky You know how to use your wings to fly But if you rise to high You will fall and die
Leave me alone
Oh brother Wake up, stand up, you are still living in a world of dreams My brother Wake up, stand up and join the keepers of the truth Oh brother Wake up, stand up, they are too weak alone it seems My brother Wake up, stand up, remember the promise of our youth Oh brother Wake up, stand up, you are still living in a world of dreams My brother Wake up, stand up, remember the promise of our youth
Leave me alone
Remember the Promise
7. Phoenix From The Ashes
We will rise from the ashes Many days and many years I tried to live how she told me But I was yearning for something more To fill the emptiness inside And it never was enough To fill me up And it never was enough
For my restless mind Phoenix from the ashes Our wounds will be healed Phoenix from the ashes
We’ll be born again and rise Now that I have found a way To salvation I know I will be So much stronger than before
Nothing will ever break me And it’s gonna be enough To fill me up And it’s gonna be enough For my restless mind
Phoenix from the ashes Our wounds will be healed Phoenix from the ashes We’ll be born again and rise
We will rise from the ashes
8. How Long
How long, how long
How long will I go on like this Hurting myself and denying my love How long will I go on like this Ignoring the pain inside
How long will it take until Everything’s ruined and everything’s gone How long will it take until His demons devour him and his visions burn us all
How long can I go on like this Until all the strength is lost and destroyed How long can I go on like this There’s a new life on its way
How long will I excuse myself For every mistake and every fault And how will I excuse myself If he hurts our dearest maid and I always had it come
How long It’s time to make another step in the right direction Too long It’s time to move forward for our own protection
How long will it take until Everything’s ruined and everything’s gone How long will it take until His demons devour him and his visions burn us all
How long It’s time to make another step in the right direction Too long It’s time to move forward for our own protection
How long, how long
9. Innocent Hearts
Don’t dare to leave You can’t make a single step without me Don’t dare to go Or you will be lost forever Oh, do you remember Your heart and soul are in my hand

10. Forgotten Love
Past is haunting me Fragments of memory disturb my peace of mind Hours of delight now seem a thousand years away I was a fool to let you go
My heart and soul are filled with sadness Deep as grey oceans in your eyes My heart and soul are filled with sadness Despair spreads its fingers around my mind
Days of love and hope were followed by aeons of loneliness as darkness sunk into our hearts The other one’s shadow stood between us, a silent wall of doom darkening the sky
My heart and soul are filled with sadness Deep as grey oceans in your eyes My heart and soul are filled with sadness Despair spreads its fingers around my mind
Only memories remain in a world now cold and dark Where flowers grew now dust has covered everything
Crying doesn’t help anymore so what can I do? Torn in pieces is my heart I don’t know where to go
My heart and soul are filled with sadness Deep as grey oceans in your eyes My heart and soul are filled with sadness Despair spreads its fingers around my mind
God how I wish you back but my mistakes can never be undone and I fear you forgot our love....
11. The Burning
Burn! Destroy! Die!
Now the time has come To destroy everything we had before Are you ready for the run Through a painful river to the other shore
Come with me ‘cause I love you Salvation O Brother don’t you see you crossed the line I’m waiting with arms wide open Salvation Into your arms we run, you shall be our redeemer lead us to salvation
I swear tonight I’ll be the guardian of your fate For the rest of my life My dearest maid Of the ones I loved the most But I lost them forever now
Oh Mother he killed them all but still I hear someone crying
Stцhnen und Schreien
You are the only one who’s left My dearest maid
Now the time has come We destroyed everything we had before We are already on the run Through the painful river to the other shore
In my arms you all are dying Salvation Oh brother don’t leave me forever now I’m dying ‘cause I love you Salvation In your arms we burn you are not a redeemer there is no salvation
swear tonight I’ll be the guardian of your fate For the rest of my life My dearest maid Of the ones I loved the most But I lost them forever now

13. Heaven And Hell
[Bonus On Digipack]
[Originally performed by Black Sabbath]
Sing me a song, you're a singer do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil The Devil is never a maker the less that you give, you're a taker So it's on and on and on, it's Heaven and Hell, oh well The lover of life's not a sinner The ending is just a beginner The closer you get to the meaning the sooner you'll know that you're dreaming So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell I can tell, fool, fool! Well if it seems to be real, it's illusion for every moment of truth, there's confusion in life Love can be seen as the answer, but nobody bleeds for the dancer and it's on and on, on and on and on.... They say that life's a carousel Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well The world is full of Kings and Queens who blind your eyes and steal your dreams It's Heaven and Hell, oh well And they'll tell you black is really white The moon is just the sun at night And when you walk in golden halls you get to keep the gold that falls It's Heaven and Hell, oh no! Fool, fool! You've got to bleed for the dancer! Fool, fool! Look for the answer! Fool, fool, fool!
