Now the time has come for to leave this land
Take my charge with pride sacrifice

Oooh

Lead: Andre

Running and hiding I'm left for the time
To bring back the order of devine
Hunted by goblins no Gandalf to help
With swords in the night
Oh the last part of the game
Decision of death and life
Blood for Sauron they'll call tonight
The final battle cry

Lead: Andre

Running and hiding I'm left for the time
To bring back the order of devine
There exist no tales and hobbits are crying
For all
Children of death

Lead: Andre

I have a dream
The things you've to hide for
Deliver
Our kingdom and our reich
Don't fall in panic
Just give me the thing
That I need or I kill
Don't run away
For what have I done

Refrain:
Oooh Majesty
Your kingdom is lost
And you will leave us behind
Oooh Majesty
Your kingdom is lost
And ruins remind of your time
Now come back

Solo: Andre

Refrain:
Oooh Majesty
Your kingdom is lost
And you will leave us behind
Oooh Majesty
Your kingdom is lost
And ruins remind of your time
Run, run, run

Cries
Cries in a dark land
Hear the voice it's cold as ice
Eyes
They are watching
They look for me but cannot find

Creature is following no place to escape
My last steps will find the right way
Where is the future the call of the blind
Cause there is none to find
Watch the sky you see no light
My weapons burst with fear
With the howling wolves the nazgul will die
For all
Children of death

Lead: Andre

Cries
Cries in a dark land
Hear the voice it's cold as ice
Eyes
They are watching
They look for me but cannot find
Run
Run for the whole world
It's time you cannot wait
Lost
Lost in a dark world
You feel the strange but cannot see

Too many battles we carry along from the war
And too many frightens we feel from his law
For so many victories we're praising so strong
For so many blood we've lost

Lead: Andre

Refrain:
Oooh Majesty
Your kingdom is lost
And you will leave us behind
Oooh Majesty
Your kingdom is lost
And ruins remind of your time
Run, run, run
Behind
Run, run

Extermination thunder the strange one is back again
Lost by our only power it's aura will grind us out forever
Fall into a dark dream that we got once
The part it's real you won't believe

Lead: Andre

We're watching our own agony many years ago
Seven little children stand against the ghost
Believing is the answer but you've lost before
Find back to your infancy it's time to die

Lead: Andre/Thomas

I've been the herdsman you've been my sheep
I find taste on lampskin everything's allright
Killing for the thirst for small children sweat
I give them illusions to raise their fear

Hear the crying dying child it's music to my ears
Feel the sweetness of it's death everything's allright
But there's a new feeling I've never known
There must be a third one a mighty guardian

Refrain:
Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind
Now it feel the curse of heaven
Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind
Now it feel the curse of the child

Solo: Andre

Dark is it's world and lonely we're reaching it again
Fear our returning visions to madness we will fall
If we can't kill the beast forever we must die now
One has blown his life away

Lead: Andre

Once we were a circle fighting hand in hand
Our weapons were illusions to let it feel the pain
By the sweet taste of our live it call us back again
We will find the answer it's time to die

Solo: Marcus

By a ritual we have hurt it but we have not kill
Little Billy you must find your way, no
Believe in you we ask for but where we can never find
There must be a sign for the Guardian of the Blind

Refrain:
Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind
Now it feel the curse of heaven
Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind
Now it feel the curse

Lead Licks: Andre

Come to it's world following the sign
Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind
Give us the help we're waiting for your sign
Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind

Years ago I came back
This has been my hardest attack
A burning fire's in my brain
I could feel the deadly flame

Tales of the magic in my head
To a dark dream I fall in my mind
I hold the key of fortune

To feel the strange thing's in my mind
The stone of Amber I must find
I'll take the chance that day

Refrain:
Halloween - The wizard's crown I'll take - on
Halloween
Halloween - But there is no return - on
Halloween

Lead: Andre

I'm the servant of the Blind to cross the realms of death
The gate is open wide you cannot close

His dungeons deep no place to hide
The times have changed he has to fight
In magic spell I fall

Illusions falling to my mind
But where's the key I cannot find
The ritual has begun

Refrain:
Halloween - The wizard's crown I'll take - on
Halloween
Halloween - But there is no return - on
Halloween

Solo: Andre

The battle has begun
The warlock's time has come
I pay the price I have to pay

Why haven't see the signs
I'm loosing now my life
But cannot die forever life

Refrain:
Halloween - The wizard's crown I'll take - on
Halloween
Halloween - But there is no return - on
Halloween
Halloween - The wizard's crown I'll take - on

Lead: Andre

There comes the last part and end of our old age
With thunder and lightning the dark lord is taking
The crown of the whole world
His creatures will kill me poisons my soul
To the end I will fight but I know that the things
That I do are so meanless - oh, no !

I see the hill but it's so far away I know I can't reach it
But I try it again and again in my dark dreams
He's waysting my last will how long can I stay here
When the mightiest of all will now

Refrain:
Run for the Night burn away
The times of his fall I've to pay

Visions of darkness prepared for the last strike
Blooddlust their weapons and madness you see feel their
Eyes there's no way out
I'm lost in a dark dream and losing control
To the end I will fight but I know that the things
That I do are so meanless - oh, no

I see the hill but it's so far away I know I can't reach it
But try it again and again in my dark dreams
He's waysting my last will how long can I stay here
When the mightiest of all will now

Refrain:
Run for the Night burn away
The times of his fall I've to pay

You see them running in the shadows of the night
It is not what it used to be
They've been scared and they've been anxiously tonight
You see them running with the wind

They
Run for the night
Run for the night
Run for the night

Solo

Refrain:
Run for the Night far away
The times of his fall I've to pay
Run for the Night far away
The times of his fall I've to pay

He was born in the past time
To take all our pain
The kingdom of heaven is near

The children of this time
Must die for his arrive
To let all the legends be true

The prophecy said they'll call king of the jews
He is born now to take all our sins
Three kings were searching for this holy child
The journey begins, he has to die

Lead: Andre

Bridge:
Healing the cripples and taking our pain
He came for the sinner
But what we have paid
Disciples are following
They are calling his words
Salt of the earth and light of the world

Refrain:
Martyr - we are following you bless us for eternity
Messiah - we are torturing you when you lose the power of your words

Jump from the temple and angel will save
Show me that you are the son of our God
Now take my land with my power you get
Rulin' the world of tomorrow
Now !

Lead: Andre

Messiah - Liar - Our burning desire
He is the king without a crown
We will set him to his throne
Give me 30 p. of silver and I'll be your man

Higher - Liar - The fallen Messiah
Let us see his agony
The things he done are blasphemy
Mob has lost their joy on toy so let us kill him fast

Now drink my blood for the new testament
This is my body you eat
One of you twelve is the one who betrays
Better that he's never born

Judas you're the chosen one
The world has damned your name
No !

Lead: Andre

Bridge:
Begin with a kiss at a cross it will end
The kingdom of heaven we've passed
The sky will turn black and the curtain will fall
The father is crying for his son
The tortured Messiah is finding his way
The journey has come to the end
The twelve ones are preaching the words he had left
They're changing the way of the world but die for

Solo: Marcus

Refrain:
Martyr - we are following you bless us for eternity
Messiah - we are torturing you when you lose the power of your words
Martyr - we are following you bless us for eternity
No

Can't believe the things I see
That happens in the state
By a mortal distance that I can't believe

Self destructive infernal
To save us from the breed
But I know that it is all a lie

Star wars begin now
His bombs come exploding
To bring back the death of the night

No mercy he's knowing
How strong he must show us
For the last film you all get a part

Be by my side
Or you have to die
Believe what I do is the right

Lead: Andre

Soon Armageddon
Last hours are running now
The final solution begins

The words of a madman
No children to tell them
For what they will not see the light

Choose by your voice
He kills and destroys
At the end you must die for the night

In earlier chess games we're playing the part of a soldier
But now we are not qualified to save our own life

The traps are all placed by command they are ready to strike, yeah
We live and we will die by the lies, a lies to believe

Lead: Andre

Bridge:
Try to escape from this suicide dreams
Or past time will come back again
Hiroshima is a joke to that what will come
At the end of the game we all die
Die now

Refrain:
Battalions of fear
They search and they scream for the American dreams
Battalions of fear
The way of R.R. to show he is the star
Battalions

Solo: Andre

Star wars begin now
His bombs come exploding
To bring back the death of the night

No mercy he's knowing
How strong he must show us
For the last film you all get a part

Be by my side
Or you have to die
Believe what I do is the right

Solo: Marcus

With hands full of blood
He talks about peace
With snake poisoning tongue
He's praying

El Salvador and Vietnam
You soon fast forget
But you satisfy on Afghanistan

You've been the master
You kill with a laughter
Your screams of peace are wrong and loud
Cause so we are and here we are

We scream and shout !

Your laughing about all the fools

Scream and shout !

With power of evil they stand

Lead: Andre

Bridge:
Try to escape from this suicide dreams
Or past time will come back again
Hiroshima is a joke to that what will come
At the end of the game we all die
Die now

Refrain:
Battalions of fear
They search and they scream for the American dreams
Battalions of fear
The way of R.R. to show he is the star
Battalions of fear
The way of R.R. to show he is the star
Battalions
Battalions
