HUMAN FORTRESS LYRICS

1. The Dragons Lair

A dragon in his wildest state
Polymorphed by greed and within burning hate
Empowered by mad bloodlust
Hs shives to turn all life to dust
From three caverns filled with fire, death desire
We paralyzed by a dragonfear
Mighty knights grow numb when he's near

We march into our doom - into the dragons lair
Three caverns of dust and fire
A battle breaks the gloom - he's strong as fair
Those dragon skills - turn hope into despair

With his putrid fire breath
In those valliant knights ear he whispers pure death
Wizards burn in lightning rain
They writhe in an infernal pain
Into the dragons lair we march
Into the dragons lair......

His leather wing brewed up a storm
Blows and gusts to move his form, so he can fly
Fly before the dawn
He'll be back before too long
He could grab us with his demon blood soaked claws
One evil ghost without fear without honour
Mighty knights grow numb when he's near

The dragons lair

2. Under Black Age Toil

Under black age toil we live

That night the stars shot madly from
Their spheres and we're raging like a violent storm
And the moon that was no crescent but
His horns were visible within the circumference
One saw more devils vastest hell can hold

Within moonshine we left to bury the dead
The iron tongue of midnight hath told twelve

The pestilence has taken our eyesight
And our graves are gaping wide
Everyone sets forth his dying sprite
And the church way paths to glide
Through dead bodies - nor rich or poor
Anymore with stolen pride

Under black age toil we live

Oh scornful masters we leave our homes
Under black age toil our sweat runs bold
Let the pestilence resolve our end
We won't leave our fathers land
We won't learn trial patience for a customary cross

We've abandonded to relieve and heal
Even strong men with their hearts of steel
And the beggars, fools our knights and kings
Met the demon with this blackened wings

3. Lord Of Earth & Heavens Heir

Videte aquiem milites canentes
armis et signis equo in pugnam vehent.
Gloria his qui vincent.

First son, learn to wield
The weight of thine immortal shield
Close on thy head thy helmet bright
Balance thy sword against the fight
Courage to your holy soul

Welcome those invaders guest
Lord of earth and heavens heir
Don't lay aside your warlike crest
And of nature's banquet share

Watch their infernal army, strong as fair
With silken banners spread the air
Now, if thou best that sword divine
In this days combat let it shine
I want this art... from you
Conquer your resolved heart

Damnation,
Though it lingers slumbers not
Vengeance is mine,
I will repay, saith the iron lord

Total confindence of what I am
Makes me the lion and the lamb
While "the lord" I am to be
Is grown from a seed that is but me
The me...........
To slowly grow, to slowly be
A god in greatness..........
From the seed that's me

4. Divine Astronomy

I practice the cults on a sacred science
When I open up my own books of might
I know that our world turns around the sun
I'm unspoken by those who have fear of light

I'm the devil, I'm hellbound
It's not the sun that turns around
They've build a monument of lies
Scientists blind faithful eyes

On your long way
Paved of your sorrows
Depressions appointed your way
You have to follow
The heaven just opened the gate

I'm seeing some visions and kind of things
All the tragedies of our slaves and kings
I saw their rising and I sensed their fall
But I wasn't ever there but I know it all

Divine astronomy

5. Stroke Of Fate

I see a blind man who follows my way
Inside a trap
Shattered he breathes out decay

He's trying to refuse something he cannot choose
'cause there's a trap he always steps inside
It shatters you it steals my light...it steals my light

I can shatter my mind and hide what I feel
It's not the the right way to loose myself
This hard stroke of fate and inconcievable pain
Can't break my poor heart before it heals inside

He's building castles out of sand with his once broken hands
It's running through with no chance to hold back just one single grain

It's time to believe in our gods and souls
To break down iron walls

He's trying to refuse something he cannot choose
Cause there's a trap he always steps inside
It shatters you it steals my light...it steals my light

I won't hide the way I feel
It's not the right way to loose myself

Oh, god come on.............

6. The Fortress

[Instrumental]

7. Amberdawn

Romuald was the golden child and embraced
His king died in coldest winters war
His castle burned with flames of greed and wild desire
It should be his amberdawn

Romuald's hands covered his father's eyes
The battle was lost and he had no time to cry
While he should stand steadfast his ground until he'd loose
And he'd face his amberdawn

Romuald chose the way
For glory to the brave
Ancient black and fire sin
The fortress burned in silent din
Amberdawn

Deceiving masks of the dogs of doom
Cathedral bells for his faithful tears
The saving grace, the smile on his face has condemned us
To burn our amberdawn

Hail this wiseman with fire
With gold and with steel
There's always one who will loose but will steal
He will steal the iron mask

Glory to the brave
Ancient black and fire sin
For glory to the brave

8. Forgive & Forget

Maybe time heals my wounds
And I'm crying deep to myself
This feeling in my broken heart seems to die
I've been disappointed

Tell me will I find out
The reason I understand
But maybe I am a gullible fool
Who ignores each warning

I'm still trying to forgive and forget
These endless lies can't go on - I'm still
Trying to forgive I regret
Mistrust will remain - I can't forget these days

Save me, I need support
To be strong now, I don't like this game
From now on, I know for sure that I am
Too weak to recover

9. Damned To Bedlam

Inside hidden towers
In a glorious land
Where superior beings punish mortal men
They're not human as they appear to be
Their purpose here, to torture you and me

Inside dungeons of despise
Their dark dominion marches on disguised

They were mad, they were damned
Had no way to defend
Caught in chains behind walls without doors
Empty hearts, helpless souls
We're out of control
In a hell of their raging own
We're damned to bedlam

It's the living inside, our misery burns
A place of isolation far away from the free
We are sick of desperation
Unable to feel behind borders of steel

And now it's necessary for you to plead
To your inner self, examine the need
Well, it's to late to change greed into creed
And this could have been done
By doing a good deed

It drives me crazy - it tears me apart
I'm damned to bedlam and caught behind walls
I won't find innocence in my heart
There's no liberation - just no helping hand
Just pain and madness again and again
Is it were I have to stay 'till my end

10. Light Beyond Horizon

Sun comes up
blows the darkest night away
Feel a year like just one day
Don't look back
To the way that you have gone
'cause as hard as it may seem
What's your fate, what's right or wrong within your life

A life's full of power, live fast just be free
Don't care about a future to know what will be
Your steps guiding forward on a way you don't see
You're running through time
"dream or reality "

What's your fate
What is right and what is wrong
On the way within your life
If you feel good
Let this day begin
Clear up questions of today
What's your fate, what's right or wrong within your life

11. Little Flame

No,no
....a little flame can't dive into the sea

Don't believe all hope is receding
Don't believe you just can walk away
Ups and downs make you feel giddy
What's the price you have to pay

Your life is like a night without the moonlight
A little flame can't dive into the sea
The endless lies to clear up all your sorrows
These wasted days to find a way
A little flame can't dive into the sea

You're just a boasting fool
All you know are your own laws and rules
You never finished school
And guess now " I'm a smart boy" and selling shoes

Your mind is full of hate
And get into a rage you create...you create
You like your muscle play
To flee from your dejection day by day

Lost in the depths of my fantastic world
Vague fragments of days will turn
Into grotesque black visions
A god before a god
"summon all the demons to rise from the graves"

Still believe time goes by
Still believe it's hard - it's hard to survive
Let it be and see what's real
All the time - there's something you just can conceal

See what's real
It's hard to survive.....it's hard to survive

Wake up and don't defy
You're a slave of your depression and lies
What else can turn your brain
There's no vain of truth in what you try to say

Your life is like a night without the moonlight
A little flame can't dive into the sea
These endless lies to clear up all your sorrows
These wasted days to find a way
A little flame can't dive into the sea

Still believe time goes by
Still believe it's hard - it's hard to survive
Let it be and see what's real
All the time - there's something you just can conceal
