10th Man
Down
Away
Astral
Romance

10th Man Down

Today I killed, he was just a boy
Eight before him, I
knew them all
In the fields a dying oath:
I´d kill them all to save
my own

Cut me free, Bleed with me, Oh no
One by one, We will
fall, down down
Pull the plug, End the pain, Run´n fight for
life
Hold on tight, this ain´t my fight

Deliver me from this
war
It´s not for me it´s because of you
Devil´s instant my
eternity
Obey to kill to save yourself

Cut me
free...

"I envy the 9 lives that gave me hell
My path made
up by their torn bodies
Man to man, soldier to soldier, dust to
dust
Call me a coward but I can´t take it anymore"

They wait for
me back home
The live with eyes turned away
They were the first ones
to see
They are the last ones to bleed

"The ultimate high as all
beautiful dies
A ruler´s tool, priest´s excuse, tyrant´s
delight...
I alone, the great white hunter
I´ll march till the dawn
brings me rest
10th patriot at the gallow´s pole!"

Cut me
free...

Away

The days were brighter
Gardens more blooming
The
nights had more hope
In their silence The wild was calling
Wishes
were whispering
The time was there
But without a
meaning

Away, away in time
Every dream´s a journey
away
Away to a home away from care
Everywhere´s just a journey
away

The days departed
Gardens deserted
This frail
world
My only rest ?

The wild calls no more
Wishes so
hollow
The Barefoot Boy
weeping in an empty
night

Away...

Cherish the moment
Tower the
skies
Don´t let the dreamer
fade to grey like grass

No
falling for life
A gain for every loss
Time gathered me
But kept
me flying

"For this gift of dream I must pay the price
with the
loss of life´s pleasures"

Astral Romance

A nocturnal concerto
Candlelight whispers me where to
go
Hymn of gathering stars as my guide
As I wander on this path of
the night

Embroidery of the stars
Undress my feelings for this
earth
Send me your salva to heal my scars
And let this nakedness me
my birth

Macrocosm poured its powers on me
And the hopes of this
world I now must leave
The nightwish I sent you centuries ago
Has
been heard by those who dwelled in a woe

The distance of our bridal
bed
Await for me to be dead
Dust of the galaxies take my
hand
Lead me to my beloved's land

"The constant longing for
your touch
This bitter ocean of hatred and pain
This loneliness I
need to be who I am"

"The oceans are alone as I
Somebody take
away this gift of mine
No charisma for the beast! But still I love you
forevermore"

"Come to me
Deliver me from you
And from all the
days of the Earth"

No last words to say
Only memories
remain
A farewell then, my path goes forever on
