EVIL MASQUERADE LYRICS

1. Pentagram

Is it black magic or the key to life
This star is the edge of a knife
Play it safe, play it cool, don't be a fool
Or you might sink to the bottom of the pool

'Cause when the star turns
It's when heaven burns
Don't make your star turn
Don't turn

From your spirit head
To your fire feet
Water, earth and air
It's all there

The number five is prime
Since the dawn of time
It makes your heart beat

Pentagram
The lion and the lamb
We're parts of a pentagram

If the great rite spins around
Another savior falls to the ground
Be prepared – cover your back
It strikes from behind – beware of the attack!

2. A Silhouette

You are a stinking liar
I don't know how you sleep at night
Your falsehood is entire
You are rotten and cold
You believe in nothing
I trusted things you said were real
Now I know better
But it's too late for me

My heart can't feel no more it's gone
You took it away
Inside my soul there's just dust
I'm a shadow of something great
Some deeds can't be undone
Now I'm a silhouette that blinds the sun

Don't want to waste my spirit
Must stay one thousand miles from you
Tried first to break then kill it
You are human disgrace
Logically unconscious
Must stay away from empathy
You're still aware of nothing
It is too late for you

Just shadows
Forevermore

3. Perfect Disgrace

Alien minds in control
Trapped in the bodies of men with no souls

They are killing themselves
They are killing the world
Without reason at all

Chasing gold
Digging graves

And when they have finally conquered some more to be had
There's human waste in colored blaze
A perfect disgrace

They've always been here
They run the show
They made you think that you wanted them to do so

4. The Spirits Of The Dead

Sailing on the seven seas
Waiting for hell to freeze
But there is no release to be found

Another distant sea
Another sunset
Another night alone

I'm never coming home
Far away – here to stay

The spirits of the dead are calling me

Silent screams that no one hears
Dark mist that never clears
My wildest fears, they are real

Another endless night
Another breakdown
Another hopeless prayer

I'll never see the light
Far away – here to stay
The sky is dark and cold
Down beneath I'm growing old

The spirits of the dead
They are here

Far away – here to stay
The sky is dark and cold
Down beneath I'm growing old
Oh the pain
Why was I born
Now they're calling me
Not so hard to see
What they want from me
The spirits of the dead
They put a price on my head
Dead

5. Moonlight Fantasy

I have been hungry
I have been cold
Been living on the street
I have been fighting
I've been struck down
But I got back on my feet

I don't mind your strange believes
You see me as a star
I'm just one with the universe
We all are...

Stars
Living in a moonlight fantasy
Stars
Imaginary moonlight fantasy

I saw the fire
I saw the pain
Just around the comer every day
Alone at sunset
I fled the dawn
But I decided to stay

I don't mind your fantasies
You tell me I'm a star
And you're right, I'm one with the universe
We all are...

Stars

6. Unholy Water

Now where will I begin
A confession of a sin
So hard to motivate
And probably too late

I have no fear of fire
Could never feel the blame
No shame
Now look what I became

I'm gazing up at surface sky
Already wet, no need to cry
I'm going down
I always knew it wouldn't last
And now I'm sinking fast
I'm going down – about to drown
In unholy water

A blind but sacred choir
Warned me about a fire
I never told them wrong
But I heard false notes in their song

I didn't fear the flame
No, no, it never came
Wrong aim
Now look what I became

7. Pray For Mercy On Our Souls

They never saw the signs
A thousand stars fell from the sky
Then it was too late 'cause they were blind
Now they can't erase the mark of time

Dream on, escape
But it's no use no more
Move on, stay strong
And pray for mercy on our souls

Now looking back at times before
A planet treated as a whore
So abused and used but no one cared
Though a thousand warning signs were there

Dream on, escape
But it's no use no more
Move on, stay strong
And pray for mercy on our souls
Dream on, escape
Move on, stay strong

Darkness blinds the world I knew
Led by greed without a clue
Now we're slowly dying here
Nothing left to do but pray
Waiting for the judgement day

8. Soul Taker

You know how it feels
It only sweetens the deal
Soul taker
Your star is upside down
Soul taker
You want to make them feel what you feel
Soul taker

Another morning is here
Can't face the world
But you know that it's there

You really taught them last night
About respect
When you put out their lights

You know how it feels
It only sweetens the deal
Soul taker
Your star is upside down
Soul taker
You want to make them feel what you feel
Soul taker

But still you're lonely and small
Something's lost
Instead of heart you've got a hole

It's so hard to see clear
Demanding love
With the weapons of fear

9. On A Bed Of Thorns

Cold as ice
Soiled and wrong
Deranged community of souls

First disrobed
And then defiled
No more hopes, no more goals

I can't sleep on a bed of thorns
I am hurt, I'm scorned
I can see a figure with horns
I can't sleep on a bed of thorns

A bleeding truth
A damaged lie
The choir sings without a song

What goes up
It must come down
And this has floated far too long

10. Strangers Might Fool Ya'

Shame on you
So cold and untrue
No time to care
No time to waste
And that's why
You don't see
All of me
Strangers might fool you
But I am for real

11. When The Fire Dies

Year after year I've been losing my religion
All I could see was misery
Fear after fear makes the passionate one grow silent
It's cold down in hell when the fire dies

When the fire dies
Under blood red skies
And the beasts arise
I don't care
When the fire dies

Another day has passed and the night seems even darker
Is this the end or is it more
Nowhere to turn, it's just different shades of nothing
How could I take another day

12. The Golden Ratio

[Instrumental]
