Shadowy bodies from eternity A soft breeze betrays the presence Milleniums imprisoned A life of suffering United in a dead soul United in a dead soul Voices out of the darkness Shadowy bodies from eternity A soft breeze betrays the presence Milleniums imprisoned A life of suffering United in a dead soul Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth Voices out of the darkness Eternity seeps away Like a sense of time The time of the earth Relieves emotion The tyranny of modern times has arrived trying to inform us trying to inform us Voices out of the darkness Eternity seeps away Like a sense of time The time of the earth Relieves emotion The tyranny of modern times has arrived trying to inform us Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth Away The darkness breaks the silence Away The silence breaks the light The tyranny of new age has begun The time of the earth 4.TEMPLE OF LOVE 4:45 With the fire from the fire works up above me With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand You run for the cover in the temple of love You run for another but still the same For the wind will blow my name across this land In the temple of love you hide together Believing pain and fear outside But someone near you rides the weather And the tears he cried will rain on Walls as wide as lovers eyes In the temple of love - shine like thunder In the temple of love - cry like rain In the temple of love - hear my calling In the temple of love - hear my name And the devil in the black dress watches over My guardian angel walks away Life is short and love is always over in the morning Black wind come carry me far away With the sunlight died and the night above me With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside You run for the cover in the temple of love You run for another, it's all the same For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside With the fire from the fire works up above me With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain You run for cover in the temple of love I shine like thunder, cry like rain And the temple of love grows old and strong But the wind blows stronger, cold and long And the temple of love will fall before this Black wind calls my name, to you no more In the temple of love you hide together Believing pain and fear outside But someone near you rides the weather And the tears he cried will rain on Walls as wide as lovers eyes In the temple of love you hide together Believing pain and fear outside But someone near you rides the weather And the tears he cried will rain on Walls as wide as lovers eyes In the black sky thunder sweeping under Ground and over water, sounds of crying, Weeping will not save your Faith for bricks and dreams for mortar All your prayers must seem as nothing Ninety-six below the wave when Stone is dust and only air remains In the temple of love - shine like thunder In the temple of love - cry like rain In the temple of love - hear my calling In the temple of love - is falling down 5.FOR LOVE 4:34 For years for this felling of intimacy This pleasant well-known shower Of endearment My love for you burns like a fire In my deepest self Your life is the absolute Perfection on earth People would kill for these Feelings and emotions My thoughts circle around your life, Around our life till eternity You are the

forgotten place In the eyes of suffering But the instruction showed me The prophecy only once In a lifetime The way behind the light is my way The search for illusions Lasted eternally Now i am caught in the hall of Torment Like the light in you Like the light in you Sweet solitued bewildered me And i saw the angels fly That was the beginning of the end Many victims for the Transmigration Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst In my dreams tears of time Emerge in lifeless faces fly with Me to the heaven's throat And the flames of your life Will become the shadows of mine Now i'm deformity in an other Reincarnation Is it true that my dreams of Dancing were merely dreamt It lies in my hands to be Lost in myself And to reach immortality Trough my soul Trough my soul Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst Tranen der zeit In den gesichtern meiner traume Die flammen meines lebens Werden die schatten meiner selbst 7.MY LAST WORDS 5:10 The lavishness of life is my Decision The souls of all souls lie Securely in my hand A life is my servant and Nobody touches them but me I burn myself in the coldness Of the wind He hates and tortures me, Betrays himself But i am silent and mock him In spite of pursuit I hurl leprosy, pest and smallpox At him These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way I behold the names of his holiness Because i grind them between my jaws And cut them out my body The power of the pentagram Does not frighten me I am the master of the triangle Be careful and warned because I will not outwit him I will spew words and You will need them As the call of his holiness But they will be nothing more Than one of my farces These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way I am the master of all forms All forms arise form me I am the form of all forms These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way These are my last words These are my last thoughts My last way 8.THE LOSS 4:12 Day for day, year for year I'm waiting to sence you once again Where were you When i longed for you Where were you When my inner being died Where

touched by lascivious breath The strange feeling like in a dream The face gleaming in full glory Touches of provoking beauty Step back Deprive yourself of the spell Seduction is death Is death Step back Deprive yourself of the spell Hallucinations mean death Mean death Unleash yourself, Destroy the evil spell The face desintegrates to dust Beaty turns gloomy Like tarnished pewter Gone the red lips And the greed for blood Step back Deprive yourself of the spell Seduction is death Is death Step back Deprive yourself of the spell Hallucinations mean death Mean death Flawless beaty flatters you Obscene words and red lips Feminine curves scent human flesh The greed for blood A batlle of life and death Flawless beaty flatters you Obscene words and red lips Feminine curves scent human flesh The greed for blood A batlle of life and death Step back Deprive yourself of the spell Seduction is death Is death Step back Deprive yourself of the spell Hallucinations mean death Mean death 10.MIRROR 5:24 Don't tell me how strong you are When emotions for you, Is a feeling, You can describe in two words Don't look at me with closed eyes As closed like a black hole The black hole in you Is the black hole in me Don't tell me how strong you are When emotions for you, Is a feeling, You can describe in two words Don't look at me with closed eyes As closed like a black hole The black hole in you Is the black hole in me Look in the mirror, And feel what you see Don't close your eyes And you wanna be free Inside yourself There's a way we can hide In an inhibited society You always collide Don't tell me how strong you are As strong like a child, A child with no dreams Don't dream a dream When you hope to wake up in time In time you will learn Don't tell me how strong you are As strong like a child, A child with no dreams Don't dream a dream When you hope to wake up in time In time you will learn Look in the mirror, And feel what you see Don't close your eyes And you wanna be free Inside yourself There's a way we can hide In an inhibited society You always collide Look in the mirror, And feel what you see Don't close your eyes And you wanna be free Inside yourself There's a way we can hide In an inhibited society You always collide TOTAL TIME 45:29 RECORDED AND MIXED at Communication Tonstudio in April & May '97 by Gerhard Magin PRODUCED by Gerhard Magin & Lotte
