GRAVE DIGGER LYRICS

1. Charon (Fährmann Des Todes)

Weiche wellen wiegen sich
Mein ruder bricht den fluss
Tote seelen nehme ich
Mit einem letzten kuss

Ich bin Charon faehrmann der toten
Mein reich das ist die unterwelt
Zahlt fuer die suenden zahlt fuer den hohn
Eure schmerzen und lieben sind mein lohn

Der tod er steht euch gut
Langsam stirbt das blut
Tote seelen nehme ich
Bett euch in tosender flut

Ich bin Charon faehrmann der toten
Mein reich das ist die unterwelt
Zahlt fuer die suenden zahlt fuer den hohn
Eure schmerzen und lieben sind mein lohn

2. God Of Terror

Hades son of titans, a lost and fallen king
He has nothing to lose and nothing to glean
The endless war lasted ten years
He was banned with thunder and without fear

At the river Styx he sits at the gate
Waiting for the poor to fulfill their fate
In the unseen realm the dead go upon
Leaving the world behind wher war rages on

The storm is gone
A new day has begun
Run with the light
Safe me with your sacrifice

God of terror - reign of the dead
God of terror - the sky turns to red
God of terror - reign of pain
God of terror - slaves in the bloody rain

Summon the immortal, to hell they ride
Legions of demons at dawn they'll die
As nameless creatures left in misery
Divine revelation is crying out - insanity

3. Hell Dog

He's sitting there with bleeding teeth
A poor lost soul on his knees
He's howling and laughing and biting around
He's rolling his eyes and roaring aloud

He's looking at liars, looking at me
There's no excape, no chance to flee
In front of him, we're all the same
Locked and imprisoned, that's his aim

Withoud fear, we will die
Without fear, we'll close our eyes

We knock at the door at the gates of hell
We greet the dead with a wishing well
Don't mess around, we are slaves of hate
Hell dog is here, death is our fate

We are standing there, no chance to deny
Madness and sadness, it's time to die
Lost and burned, no hope for tomorrow
Our life was full of pain and sorrow

4. Medusa

Mother what have you done to me
You have seen me together with the god of the sea
Your mind is full of hate, I've touched your reign
There's no excuse to bring you such a pain

You cursed my soul, my mind is dead
Eyes like a weapon, snakes on my head
A priestless I was, the pride of Athena
Now I'm banned to live the life of a beast

I've been mistreated
I can bleed no tears
My only will is to kill

Medusa - frozen to death
Medusa - breathe one last breath
Medusa - your time has come
Medusa - your soul is gone

Now I'm imprisoned in this garden of hell
God of the sea, save me from this spell
Hear my scream, is there no other chance
Is this the end of a tragic romance

In the garden of death, heroes died
Carved in stone, no chance to hide
Enchanting loveliness fades away
For one mistake a high price to pay

5. Clash Of The Gods

Between heaven and hell and day and night
There's a place on a mountain above the sky
Gods of fire, of death and war
Breaking the silence, can't you hear them roar

The World will twist around
And we all must die
And the World is falling down
Under a blood red sky

Clash of the Gods

Beggars and saints, wasted and wounded
Innocent victims crying at the moon
The earth is getting colder and darker
The sun is whistling a dying tune

The World will twist around
And we all must die
And the World is falling down
Under a blood red sky

Clash of the Gods

6. Death Angel & The Grave Digger

Side by side at the open grave
She took my hand and danced with me
Everything you can think of this is true
On the razors edge, I'm dancing to you

All of my dreams are lost and found
My whole life is nailed to the ground
I paid the price for a game I couldn't win
Blood and thunder... That is my sin

One last kiss
Take me home
Spread your wings
Where I'll be king

Voices of disaster, rain that never ends
Now and forever in passionate flames
At the end of the day, please pull the trigger
Two souls collide, Death Angel and the Grave Digger

A thousand times I've stood on a sheer
To find my freedom, a life without fear
Save me, rape me, feed me with misery
On wings of hope, I run from reality

A bucket full of dimes has been never enough
To leave the bad side, getting out of the slough
I spit on the bullet, I'm dead now for hours
Please put on my grave the dreamland flowers

One last kiss
Take me home
Spread your wings
Where I'll be king

Voices of disaster, rain that never ends
Now and forever in passionate flames
At the end of the day, please pull the trigger
Two souls collide, Death Angel and the Grave Digger

7. Walls Of Sorrow

The end of the war, a giant wooden hollow horse
Sacred by gods, filled with soldiers and a driving force
People of Troy ignored this terrible warning
A self-fulfilling prophecy, surrounded by great secrecy

Living in a bad dream
Misfortune never seen
By the sun, the curse and spell
I have found my own hell

At the walls of sorrow
Clouds are changing into black
There will be no tomorrow
No regrets, no turning back

At the walls of sorrow
Clouds are changing into black
We are lost in the morrow
No regrets, no turning back

At the end of the day we're standing in a river of blood
Swords up in the sky, boots deep in the deadly mud
Dividing the spoil, ships lying proud in the wind
Drenched is all the earth, we are leaving behind

Living in a bad dream
Misfortune never seen
By the sun, the curse and spell
I have found my own hell

At the walls of sorrow
Clouds are changing into black
There will be no tomorrow
No regrets, no turning back

At the walls of sorrow
Clouds are changing into black
We are lost in the morrow
No regrets, no turning back

8. Call Of The Sirens

My journey began after the war of Troy
I lost many a friend, my faith and my joy
Trouble started as we dazzled the cyclops
We're punished with pain more than words can say

Only the blind can see
Only the deaf can hear
Only the dead can fell
The magic of our symphony
Only the blind will see
Only the deaf will hear
Only the dead will fell
On the island of serenity

It's the call of the sirens
It's the call of the dead
It's the call of the sirens
It's the call of the dead

Winds were a gift - ensure a safe return
Fools set winds loose, hearts began to burn
Our ship drifted off far away from my home
My journey starts again, my heart cries despair

9. Warriors Revenge

In my darkest hours I see your face
I fell with the gods in deadly disgrace
My heart screams vengeance during the fight
I find my fortune in the dark of the night

God of the wind
Calling me home
God of the sea
Let me be free

And if I die, I die, i die in dignity
The almighty gods are my destiny
And if I take revenge, no one shall remain
After my revenge, they will die in pain
They'll die in pain

With my blood I write my name in the sand
And I swear they all will die by my hand
Minions of trust, for them I only feel hate
I will kill to fulfill my fate

God of the wind
Calling me home
God of the sea
Let me be free

And if I die, I die, i die in dignity
The almighty gods are my destiny
And if I take revenge, no one shall remain
After my revenge, they will die in pain
They'll die in pain

10. ...with The Wind

[Instrumental]

11. Home At Last

Time has come, my journey's at the end
Years I have traveled, lost a lot of friends
At the walls of Troy I fought for my king
Achilles by my side for the faith to win

Saints and sinners
Liars and killers
Gods and heroes
Crossed my ways

Home at last
Goodbye to the past
Home at last
Our faith is hard and fast
Home at last
Tied to the mast
Home at last, Home at last!

The end of the day brought us the victory
We paid for our sins with pain and misery

Saints and sinners
Liars and killers
Gods and heroes
Crossed my ways

Home at last
Goodbye to the past
Home at last
Our faith is hard and fast
Home at last
Tied to the mast
Home at last, Home at last!

12. Saints Of The Broken Souls

[European Digibook Editiion Bonus Track]

Out of the shadows and out of my dreams
Creatures of death rise you know what that means
From their grave they rise with power and lust
Destroy all mankind crushing bones to dust

I see a falcon high over the blue sky
Cruising in between the good and the bad
In this world where darkness reigns
Faith passion and religion only remains

Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls

There is no way out no rescue in sight
Thunder and lightning light up the night
Angels of darkness unleash the immortal
Turning the wheel of live up to the end

I see a falcon high over the blue sky
Cruising in between the good and the bad
In this world where darkness reigns
Faith passion and religion only remains

Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls

Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
Saints of the broken souls
