BLACK FOREST LYRICS

1. Prelude

3. Darkened

Slowly walking through the darkened forest,
Wondering how I spawned into this place;
Resignation no option, that's not what I am;
No I'm not escaping, not quitting the game.

And my challenge tonight, is not to die -
Not give my blood to some creatures but walking my way;
No direction, no idea where to go,
But I'm making my path, as I'm cleansing my soul.

Grubbing in my dreams.
Blackness and peace.
Darkened forest.
Must be released (from black creatures).

Grubbing in my dreams.
Blackness and peace.
Darkened forest.
Must be released (from black creatures).

4. Dawn

Soon is dawn,
The darkened sun rising,
Through the obscured horizon;

Soon is salvation,
The trepidation – fading,
Finally almost gone (is it gone?);

Looking towards end,
The dust – withering.
Blackened are my hands,
Water – requiring.
Freezing my feet,
The coldness – lasting.
Where is the end?
Orientation – losing.

Still some time to dawn,
When the sun will rise (will rise (will rise))

Looking towards end,
The dust – withering.
Blackened are my hands,
Water – requiring.
Freezing my feet,
The coldness – lasting.
Where is the end?
Orientation – losing.

[Guitar solo]

Now it's dawn,
The sun is rising,
Through the brightening horizon,

My fear,
My angst,
Is finally gone (is it gone?)

Looking towards end,
The dust – withering.
Blackened are my hands,
Water – requiring.
Freezing my feet,
The coldness – lasting.
Where is the end?
Orientation – losing.

Now it's time of dawn,
The sun is showing up.

In the end the sun is rising
Through the brightened skyline;
Maybe with some daylight
I can find a path.

5. Moonlight

I thought I had seen the first rays of light
Yet these woods still oppressive and dark at night
These visions of glowing eyes in the darkness
Make me question my own sanity

I feel as if this forest has a grip on my mind
The lines between dream and reality twined
Like a curse urging me to find,
The place where I can leave all this behind.

But I have to keep wandering,
Struggling through this eternal fight.
In the distance thousands of colors emerge,
Falling from reflections of the moonlight.

The ghostly light of the moon will guide my way out of these woods
Touched by the glistening light I feel the burden on my mind is slowly starting to fade
The dark creatures give way to spirits dancing in the ghostly glow of the moon
I believe the path of my journey keeps on going
The end is not yet in sight

A light shimmering through the forest leaves
So subtle and pale yet with an eerie presence

6. Dream

[Part I]

I'm on my way into the unknown realms
Of darkness, snow and strange events.
As if this place is not what I've been thinking of,
Not even sure if this ever ends

After all this way I now reached a place,
Of endless joy and discontent,
Bursts of silence sweeping through the forest
Where the river's floating down the land.

From far behind rustling noise between the trees
The moss on the ground turning into black disease
I'm falling through the shadows of earth and in the darkened seas
I turn around, I'm lying on my knees.

As the brightest light is falling down from the skies,
And the slightest breeze turns into deadly storms of ice
The narrow path that keeps me clear is bouncing on both sides.
With an owl on its left and the witch with kaleidoscope eyes.

[Part II]

Torrents rushing down the once so silent land
Demons from the dark crawling through the sand
The witch waddling over, rising up her hand - is that the end?

The lights so dense they're piercing my eye,
My inner body purely rendered empty by
The dark spirit rising up into the sky - will I die?

7. Memories
