1. Elinoire's Theme

[Instrumental]

2. Initiation Fugato

[Spirit:]
He is just a man
He's in the prime of life
For every day
Owns a fancy car
But a down to earth man
A treasured friend
Relieving tension when he

Sits in his garden
Listen's to the birds
and trees
Enjoy the silence
The busy bees
Their simple life
Captures him into a dream

Loved by his mum
And his dad
They are so proud
He is their only son
A lovely childhood
all the time
What he prayed for
Found his way of life
So untouchable
Hope, peace and luck
Perfect and smart
Just wanna find out
What life will bring for the
next procedure

[Destiny:]
She is just a girl
So beautiful and treasured
Eyes fulfilled with stars
She reminds him of
perfect clouds
Fairy tales on her way to
Pride and joy
But it's not easy to get

Quick a promotion
Each day in the lawyer's
firm. For every hour
The paper batch
Seems to be im-
Possible, for to complete
After the long working
day, Time to relax
Leisure activities
Athletic pretty angel
eye. For a long time

[Conscience:]
Cyrus, Adam's
dad. He is on a
friendly term with
All the alliance
Cracking jokes, he's
one of the kind
Brainpower his trademark
A helpful guy
Technical gifted but a-
Bit of a bad dog
Takes eternal 'till he gets
To a conclusion
There is no harm
'cause he's a depend-
able and honest man

[Season:]
Both, will have a child
The little wonder starts to move the arms and legs
Call her Elinoire what it means
Nobody should know.
It's a mystery the relatives would be put (off)

[Spirit/Destiny/Conscience/Season:]
Open your mind
For the unpredictable
change. Night after night
Touching he skin
He shelters the unborn life

[Season:]
Time after time
Nothing stays like it
has been before
He's not aware
Losing his love
Feeling of guilt deep
inside Elinoire's tale

[Spirit:]
Lea, what went wrong?
Have you lost your
will to live?
Anything went wrong, you
decided to pass away
There is no way out
Giving your life for
your own child,
meaning of love stands
for your pride
(You) carried your secret
For many weeks,
many months
Weeping just privily, oh
Rest in Elinoire's tale

[Conscience:]
Fate has no influence
new life is born
no love for his child
She's responsible
Rabidness is powerful
Is there anybody
who knows
How to take care of
oneself when he
Rests in Elinoire's tale

3. Overture

[Instrumental]

4. First Day

[Time:]
One warm summer day
in the garden of unison
once upon...
Two young faithful humans
Lived in peace and harmony
So in love

[Conscience:]
So he was just a man
In the prime of his life
A hard working man
their energy

[Spirit:]
Two young faithful
humans lived in peace
(they) invested all
Make believe
What a lucky man he was

[Destiny:]
And she was just a girl
So beautiful and treasured
Her eyes were filled,
Her eyes were filled
with stars

[Rage:]
Summer day...
Just a man in his prime...
Faithful people...
Just a girl, stars were
sparkling in her eyes

[Destiny:]
Invited all the relatives

[Time:]
To advertise a new born age
I pull the strings all over it,
you know

[Destiny:]
With your thoughts -
Always present
I'm forever on your side,
at all the time

[Love:]
Oh, forlorn hope
Watching all over you

[Destiny:]
It is time don't lose the way
Beware, don't fool about,
Don't you hear, your father
cries for you...

[Father:]
Come on son!
Don't keep us
suspense, again
Have a heart!
What has come over you?

[Destiny:]
Invited all the relatives.

[Time:]
To advertise a new born age
I pull the stings all over it,
You know.

[Spirit:]
So he was just a man
And she was just a girl

[Destiny:]
Within your thoughts -
always present
I'm forever on your
side at all the time

[Spirit/Destiny/Rage/Time/Love/Death:]
We've ever been on your
side the whole time, we
have ever been
We've ever been on your
side the whole time, we
have ever been
We've ever been on your
side the whole time, we
have ever been
We've ever been on
your side the whole
time, we have
ever been

Did I ever mention it before
I predict the story's end
Wait until hell freezes over

We're so in love
In my heart

started to glow
until the morning
sun will grow
Why oh why

[Adam:]

Have a nice day and let
the party begin
What we would like to say is
that something's on its way

This game will change
up their lives
To come undone

8. Elinoire

[Elinoire:] Now I'm here, surprised at all.
These humans are tall, I'm afraid
No familiar place
I'm scared to move
This new surrounding contests my shelter from the rain

[Love:] Now you are born my dear
I will lay my love on you
I'll keep the promise, I'll do

[Lea:] Don't be afraid my child I'm always with you Elinoire
Even if I have to go
Please be well-behaved
And walk the path of life
I'll pull you through from on high

The boat doesn't wait
It longs for you, your name is carved in stone
Follow me into the light
Closer to the dawn, now faithfully

[Lea:] Now you are born I will lay my love on you

[Love:] Listen to your sanity
And bid farewell to Elinoire
Look what you've left behind
Even if it's hard for you
That she'll be out of reach
This one memory, this one memory remains

[Father:] She died for you, Elinoire

[Destiny:] No need to cry anymore

[Season:] Here in heaven she cares for you

And walk the path of life

[Conscience:] Just follow your heart
You'll find your way
Follow your heart
You'll find all my light in the stars

[Spirit:] In the stars my Elinoire

9. Rage Of Despair

She took your only love, this parasite
Grabbed for her soul, you know
The result of your love

Now you have to realize, decide, no compromise
Lea died, you know
She's the gift of your love and your fate

Am I alone, what am I in for
Can you forgive me
Relieve me of this burden now

Slipping straight into a cage
You are captured in yourself
So baneful and ashamed
Flee from your perdition

Rage inside, roll the dice, compromise
Way of life, jack the knife, war of rage

You are the one, cold but wonderful
Searching for answers, he's blinded by rage
He laid the blame on you, Elinoire
So innocent and sweet, the rage of despair

For those who yearn, for my mistake
I'm so concerned, I cannot escape
The pillow in your hand, resolve your fear
Just be a man, let go
Please think twice, use your mind

Just what I have to claim
Inject poison straight into her veins, behold
She's your own flesh and blood, don't be blind

What have I done, I am not guilty
Please let me know how I can blow my pain away

Still you're captured in the cage
Break the walls, a ray of hope
Ignore the screams of rage
He tried to misled you

Rage inside, roll the dice, compromise
Way of life, jack the knife, war of rage

You are the one, cold but wonderful
Searching for answers, he's blinded by rage
He laid the blame on you, Elinoire
So innocent and sweet, the rage of despair

Devil in her soul, the devil takes control
Out of control, I can't revoke for the bitter
I can't decide, I blew my mind for the ripper

Act like a man, you have to complain
It won't be the same, you cannot revoke
A leap of faith, I cannot forsake
The devil he takes control of my mind

Out of control, I can't revoke for the bitter
I can't decide, I blew my mind for the ripper

Please let me know, I feel so sorry
Wounded by the fate's will
Occupy the moral high ground

Have you ever been aware
That you're captured in your rage
You plead for my advice, flee from your corruption

Rage inside, roll the dice, compromise
Way of life, jack of knife, war of rage

You are the one, cold but wonderful
Searching for answers, he's blinded by rage
He laid the blame on you, Elinoire
So innocent and sweet, rage of despair

So what may come, will he understand
She passed away, but she would never allow
He laid the blame on you, Elinoire
So innocent and sweet

Rage of despair, rage of despair
Rage of despair, rage of despair

10. Adam's Theme

[Adam:] My innermost's
benumbed with pain, my
pain. Oh in silence and
reclusion I retry to sleep

[Conscience:] He'd braved it
hard but he could not
hold this

[Saxophone Solo: Marek Arnold]

[Adam:] Get up for roaming,
searching the time,
searching time
Seems that it gloats on her
picture 'til it fades to gray.
Scattered to the 4 winds
None can change

[Adam:]
I'm standing it hard,
wish I could be so...

[Destiny:] Far from disgrace
he wants to go back in time

[Conscience:] After that night he laid his promise down

[Destiny/Season/Spirit:]
Can't fall asleep his fault is turning his mind, burning inside

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Destiny:] Clouds are passing in silence, hour for hour,
[Season:] Hour for ...

[Destiny:] Staring straight
through the window, you're still aiming for...
But you can't grab through

[Season:] So tight and obscure

[Conscience:] Oh he beams with joy
I wish he could be so...

[Destiny:] Far from disgrace he wants to go back in time

[Conscience:] After that night he laid his promise down

[Destiny/Season/Spirit:]
Can't fall asleep his fault is turning his mind, burning inside

[Guitar solo: Ali Neander]

[Conscience:] Just follow your heart
You'll find your way just follow your heart Elinoire

11. Neglected Garden

Now I reach out for the garden you once loved
Feel my bitter breath, I'll execute my craft
I take fading things, oh that is my desire
Without conscience, without grave
Won't earn a penny to my name

Mist discovered from the valley down below
Oh, I can't feel your pain
I will, I will lodge my claim until the sun will rise
Beware 'cause it's my turn, and I will gear up for the show

Time and tide wait for no man, do you see
When the last grain of sand in the hourglass decays
If you don't change, my hope will die
Save your soul just remember, activate your mind

Like the last grain of hope in a desperate game of life
Leave behind this inane life, back to life again
But he remains, and he fills up his glass of wine

12. Time Mirror

[Destiny:] You hear the dished smashing at the kitchen floor

[Death:] Her fear is really justified, squarely

[Destiny:] Covert beneath your blanket in the nursery

[Death:] She's frightened of his blatant voice
Sweet sweet child

[Rage:] The bane of his life
Road to perdition

[Spirit/Past/Conscience/Liberty:] This is the day
The story is spinning round
Wait for the turning point

[Death:] You won't commit a crime to what your appetite

[Adam:] Shut up I won't apologize my conduct

[Death:] Are you a faintheart playing with her dignity?

[Adam:] What the hell are you talking 'bout
So, get off my back

[Elinoire:] Devil in disguise
I'm a part of you
So treat my with respect
As cold as ice
You get lost in the maze
This is the worst disgrace of life

[Conscience:] Anger or love
Confronting me
Which will I choose
Anger or love
Confronting me
Is there a turning point?

[Synth Solo: Marek Arnold]

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Funky Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Funky Sax Solo: Marek Arnold]

[Guitar Solo: Brendt Allman]

[Time:] He's getting tired, in front of the TV-Screen

[Destiny:] The breaking news make him wide awake
He can't believe his eyes

[Spirit/Past/Conscience/Liberty:] This is the day
The story is spinning round

[Rage:] Road to perdition

[Spirit/Past/Conscience/Liberty:] Fall in disgrace
Beware of the truth, keep your vow
And wait for the turning point

[Time:] Most recent findings of the investigation were announced

[Destiny:] Will it be true or is it just a joke, god only will know

[Time:] Repress your memories you're longing for intelligence

[Rage:] Come face the truth
You're just a part of this game

[Sax Solo: Marek Arnold]

[Elinoire:] Devil in disguise
I'm a part of you
So treat me with respect
As cold as ice
You get lost in the maze
This is the worst disgrace of life

[Elinoire:] Devil in disguise ......
As cold as ice .....

[Conscience/Liberty:] Devil in disguise .....
As cold as ice .....

[Spirit/Past:] Devil in disguise
She's a part of you
So treat her with respect
As cold as ice
You get lost in the maze
This is the worst disgrace of life

13. Watershed

[Past:]
Rage! Hate! Pain!
See for yourself
Rage! Hate! Pain!
See yourself

[Love/Spirit:]
Open your
mind. For the unpredict-
able change
All that you feel is
Anger and pain
Feeling betrayed
and forlorn

After a while
Nothings stays like
it has been before
Still disavow
Remember the days
Where all has begun

14. Review

[Past:] Once upon a time
She belonged to another heart
She was a child and unaware
But he was already a mature man
Her parents were against their love
But she didn't give a damn
That night she fell into his arms
And in the right moment he used his chance

Regardless of the consequences
They gave their fancy full scope
Some weeks went by, they became aware

The whole thing went out of control

For fear for her parents she aborted it
So she sealed her own destiny
As he become aware, no future, no gravidity
His love turned into animosity

[Time:] Take care before

[Destiny:] The circle is closed

[Time:] The time has changed and takes it's curse

[Father:] I must confess..
Oh, what a shame

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Destiny:] I carry on in my way
He didn't understand
They broke away from themself
But he couldn't accept his fate

[Lea:] Oh, he followed all my footsteps
And overstepped the mark
He was not able to suppress
This outlawed desire
He accompanied those people
Became a part of this crime
Together with this same age man
He actualized the plans

[Time:] Take care before

[Destiny:] The circle is closed

[Time:] The time has changed and takes it's curse

[Father:] I must confess...
Oh what a shame

[Sax Solo: Mark Arnold]

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Past:] Regardless of the consequences
They gave their fancy full scope

[Conscience:] Some weeks went by and they became aware
The whole thing went out of control

15. Unearth The Truth

[Guitar Solo: Brendt Allman]

[Zac:]
My camouflage's uncovered now
I have to act without delay
The only witness, Adam's dad
This addle cove did
not keep still

[Father:]
I let the cat
out of the bad
I cannot bare this shame
I took the bait in my vision
Far beyond the pale,
Into the jail

[Time:]
Over the years
You'll unearth the truth
Reversal of fortune has come

[Elinoire:] Out of the dark and into the light

[Death:] I annihilate the whole damn tribe

[Zac:] You dismissed all my warnings
You whimp, what made you think?

[Father:] Oh, I kept this secret much too long
My conscience's now been salved at last

[Death:] All hell broke loose, when suddenly
A girl began to scream
One single shot that hit the mark
Two birds with just one stone
Beyond belief

[Destiny / Spirit:] He shot them both
An evil blunder

[Time:]
Over the years
You'll unearth the truth
Reversal of fortune has come

[Elinoire:] Out of the dark and into the light

[Death:] I annihilate the whole damn tribe

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Past / Spirit:]
Enter the gate and satisfy yourself
Turn the wheel of fortune
He took the bait - had sworn an oath
But he broke his promise, Oh

[Guitar Solo: Andreas Schock]
[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Time:]
Over the years
You'll unearth the truth
Reversal of fortune as come

[Spirit:] Another great

[Destiny / Spirit:] Burden of life

[Elinoire:] Out of the dark and into the light

[Death:] I annihilate the whole damn tribe

16. Father's Theme

[Instrumental]

17. Farewell

[Past:] Silence beats noises, inducted by life
And dust blew over, in memoriam
Till the end of time
Hi voice so silent, he's so ashamed
Low eyes are closed now
He won't forgive himself of what he did

[Spirit/Love:] Tears are just burning in your eyes
So painful again
Your fathers words, are vanished into thin air
(He) grabs for his soul
(He) rocks him to sleep
Behold!

[Elinoire:] I take to the skies, leave all my burdens behind

[Spirit:] Leave all your burdens behind

[Elinoire:] I crave for your warmth, encounter of mother and child

[Spirit:] Encounter of mother and child

[Elinoire:] You did not deserve

[Destiny:] You did not deserve

[Elinoire:] The fate of my birth

[Elinoire / Spirit:] Behold!

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

18. A Place To Revive Your Soul

[Part I: Confession]

[Lea:] I remember every day
I meant no harm
Love at the first sight
Sheltered by his hand

I was young and just a child
My heart so strong
The taste of a new life
More than words can say
And I prayed

[Lea:] Forbode a happy ending

[Conscience:] For her life

[Lea:] He promised me the moon all day and night
Foreshadowing, I did not disavow

[Liberty/Conscience/Spirit:] She did not disavow

[Past:] Was it right or was it wrong?
She did not care!
Selfish and blindfold
She left him out in the rain

After many years ago
By a fluke
He became her fortune
A simper on his face
Without grace

[Past:] Forbode no happy ending

[Conscience:] For her life

[Past:] She didn't see the red light glowing bright
The helping hand was there, beyond the light

[Lea:] He followed every footstep

[Liberty/ Conscience:] That she went

[Lea:] He knew about my lige and our plans
And finally he had his field day

[Part II: A Broken Man]

[Zac:] In my heart
Was nothing more than emptiness
Crestfallen by the words she said
Oh Christ what has she done?
Painful eyes

All my dreams were blown away
The chain around my neck was close-drawn
In one fell swoop

[Destiny:] Left alone
In his lonely world
he was captured in his feelings
Built a wall around his mind

So he fell asleep
To start his only dream
Then he lost his confidence in everyone and everything

[Forgiveness:] What will become of a broken man?
Has he ever overcome?
She didn't give a damn
Day after day
And night after night
He followed every breath, each step

[Father:] I was aware
That I made such a big mistake
To keep that secret by myself
But son, what should I do Believe!
Met my own destiny
But I could not keep my hands off them
My eagerness was stronger than my will

[Forgiveness:] What will become of a broken man?
Has he ever overcome?
She didn't give a damn
Day after day
And night after night
He followed every breath. And!

[Part III: Flaming Row]

[Rage:] Go!
[Spirit/Destiny:] Flaming!
[Rage:] Row!
[Spirit/Destiny:] Flaming!
[Rage:] Show!
[Spirit/Destiny:] Breaking through his imaginary wall
[Rage:] Fear!
[Spirit/Destiny:] Surrounding!
[Rage:] Near!
[Spirit/Destiny:] Pounding!
[Rage:] Hear!
[Liberty/Conscience:] Breaking!
[Spirit/Destiny:] Distress yourself
Accept your fate
Attend to it, don't hesitate
Ignore your fear, recall
back in time again
Now take this life
Be satisfied
This job is done, sense of delight
[Rage:] Your job is done my friend!!

[Part IV: On the run]

[Guitar Solo: Gerrit Schwerthelm]
[Keyboard solo: Marek Arnold]

[Zac:] Still I am on the run
So afraid and alone
I stay the course, uninjured
I a close the the cone

I deserve disgrace
But will win the race

On my own

[Death:] Be a man
Have a try
See me falling from the sky
Still I lodge my claim
Until the sun will rise

[Conscience:] The sun!
[Liberty:] Sun!
[Liberty/Conscience:] Will rise

[Death:] Fear my force
No remorse
The full rigor of my own law
I will satisfy my task today
So take your chance
But you can't run away

[Guitar Solo: Martin Schnella]

[Destiny:] Try to hide from your fate
You can never escape
I make sure, unsecured you'll belong to the late
At the crack of dawn
I'll live up my own name
Beware!

[Death:] Be a man
Have a try
See me falling from the sky
Still I lodge my claim
Until the sun will rise

[Conscience:] The sun!
[Liberty:] Sun!
[Liberty/Conscience:] Will rise

[Death:] Fear my force
No remorse
The full rigor of my own law
I will satisfy my task today
So take your chance
But you can't run away

[Part V: A World Of Make Believe]

[Liberty:] Can you hear the calling?
[Conscience:] Can you hear the calling?

[Love:] We, will always be bound forever
Full of love
And faith surrounds our minds
We can carry on in this way
Our souls will fall asleep
A world of make believe

[Spirit/Destiny:]
Adam fell asleep
And never woke up from this evil dream
It started with Elinoire
That little moment's how it all began
Silently he stares
Without a word at the naked walls
Surrounding him day by day
The time is fading
can't you see the dawn
