ORDEN OGAN LYRICS

1. The Frozen Few

[Instrumental]

2. To The End

For a lifetime she had dark thoughts on her mind
always knowing that the menace grew
facing her fate she's screaming:
"I don't wanna live forever!"
she takes her cloak and asks them: "why do you?"

our minds and our will they can never break
our freedom is something they can never take
their world and order will soon come undone
our legacy is something they will never overcome

FATE!
in all these tears we will survive...will survive
like the saints we will ascend...
FATE!
a thousand years we'll be alive...be alive!
let us take it to the end!
straight to the end!

smoke is rising as they set the world on fire
caressed by warmth and a golden light
they expect her screaming
but all she does is roar with laughter
and they know that she is goddamn right...

WE'LL TAKE THE WORLD BY STORM
IN DEATH WE ARE ONE
WE TAKE THE WORLD BY STORM

FATE!
in all these tears we will survive...will survive
like the saints we will ascend...
FATE!
a thousand years we'll be alive...be alive!
let us take it to the end!
right to the end!

3. The Things We Believe In

It was our own fault that we couldn't stand our ground
the eternal winter is near
a million lives just wiped away without a sound
leaving a dead world in fear

no need to run, we're just waiting for someone
no eyes to see what we have become

WE SHOULD DIE FOR THE THINGS WE BELIEVE IN
BUT LIVE OUR LIVES IN THE DARK, SELF-DECEIVING
IN THE SNOW, ALL THE WORLD THAT WE KNEW IS ICE
...and so we are: COLD, DEAD AND GONE
SHINE A LIGHT TILL THE DARK SKY IS BURNING
WOLVES ARE HOWNLING AND FORTUNE IS TURNING
BUT OUR HEARTS AND THE WORDS THAT WE SAY ARE ICE
...and so we are: COLD, DEAD AND GONE .

betrayed by greed and pride we stumbled through the dark
confusing blind men with kings
how can we ignite the flame while missing the true spark
or have we reached the end of things?

no need to run, we're just waiting for someone
no eyes to see what we have become

WE SHOULD DIE FOR THE THINGS WE BELIEVE IN
BUT LIVE OUR LIVES IN THE DARK, SELF-DECEIVING
IN THE SNOW, ALL THE WORLD THAT WE KNEW IS ICE
...and so we are: COLD, DEAD AND GONE
SHINE A LIGHT TILL THE DARK SKY IS BURNING
WOLVES ARE HOWNLING AND FORTUNE IS TURNING
BUT OUR HEARTS AND THE WORDS THAT WE SAY ARE ICE
...and so we are: COLD, DEAD AND GONE

4. Land Of The Dead

ONCE WE WERE EAGER AND PARTNERS IN CRIME
NOW WE ARE LONESOME AND WASTING OUR TIME
IMPRISON OUR MINDS IN THE LAND OF THE DEAD
BEMOANING THE LIFE THAT WE ALL COULD HAVE LED

the suit we wear is grey - matches our identity oh God, it is the sickness that I crave
empty words they say - breed empty nights and days
and drain me from the cradle to the grave

we are
LIFELESS, PALE AND NUMB
we are
ALL THE SAME NOW

ONCE WE WERE EAGER AND PARTNERS IN CRIME
NOW WE ARE LONESOME AND WASTING OUR TIME
IMPRISON OUR MINDS IN THE LAND OF THE DEAD
BEMOANING THE LIFE THAT WE ALL COULD HAVE LED

we are
LIFELESS, PALE AND NUMB
we are
ALL THE SAME NOW

find that your soul is sold...
blind in a world so cold...

ONCE WE WERE EAGER AND PARTNERS IN CRIME
NOW WE ARE LONESOME AND WASTING OUR TIME
IMPRISON OUR MINDS IN THE LAND OF THE DEAD
BEMOANING THE LIFE THAT WE ALL COULD HAVE LED

we are
LIFELESS, PALE AND NUMB
we are
ALL THE SAME NOW

5. The Ice Kings

roam a world all grey in grey
snow is falling day by day
and regardless what they say
I think it's not all all right

wandering the streets at night
wondering the things go right
a million stars fade out of sight
I think it's not all right

AND WE ALL SERVE THE ICE KINGS
CAUSE WE ALL LOVE BELIEVING
AND WE DON'T CARE NO MORE
IN ICE WE SHALL SERVE
NOW AND FOREVERMORE

lost people grey in grey
one is falling every day
and regardless what they say
I think it's not all right

counting bodies late at night
wondering if things go right
a million lifes fade out of sight
and I think it's not all right

AND WE ALL SERVE THE ICE KINGS
CAUSE WE ALL LOVE BELIEVING
AND WE DON'T CARE NO MORE
IN ICE WE SHALL SERVE
NOW AND FOREVERMORE

6. Till The Stars Cry Out

THROUGH THE VALLEYS
UNDER STARS
BETWEEN MOUNTAINS
AMONG FRIENDS
I SHALL WANDER
I SHALL PASS
TILL THE STARS CRY OUT
MY NAME AS THEIR FRIENDS

...AND THE NIGHT WILL COME AS I LAY DOWN TO SLEEP
...AND DAY WILL GIFT ME IT'S LAST LIGHT TO KEEP
...AND TIME WILL STOP AS LONG AS I NEED
...TILL IN MY HEART THERE'S NO BLOOD LEFT TO BLEED

I'm the last in line
on the road of no return
a story that is never ending
haunted by their souls
that cling to me like my guilt
there's no one who could ever save me

Can you hear their cries brought here
BY THE WIND OUTSIDE
the rain kills all the lights
AND BRINGS ETERNAL NIGHT

AND WE ARE ONE
though we are so apart
AND WE ARE ONE
alone in the dark

who would have thought
that this is real?
that they would follow
...bewitched
...depraved
this virus never dies

and the wolves prepare to least

remember their bodies
slain and burned at the stake
I carry all their pain
more than anyone could take

7. This World Of Ice

Living dead or true survivors
In a world that’s twelve to five
Unaccomplished promises
Won’t keep us alive
All hope must be disregarded
‘Cause as we look into the sky
We might fall beneath the surface
And come across the lies

We don’t need to carry on
We don’t need to comprehend
And all we say is do or fail
‘Cause we all just missed the end

HOLD ON – TAKE MY HAND
PROMISE ALL YOUR LIES
HOLD ON – STAY WITH ME
PERISH IN THIS WORLD OF ICE

Once a sanctuary
Now conquered by a rat
Feasting on a roach it found
Sleeps in the company of the dead
And all our institutions
The facile and profound
And every brick of our ivory towers
Now lays scattered on the frozen ground

We don’t need to carry on
We don’t need to comprehend
And all we say is do or fail
‘Cause we all just missed the end

HOLD ON – TAKE MY HAND
PROMISE ALL YOUR LIES
HOLD ON – STAY WITH ME
PERISH IN THIS WORLD OF ICE

8. Dying Paradise

Nothing is left – love, friendship or trust
Success is the name of the game
You act how you’ve learned – react how you must
Till you go back to from where you came

Now Voices – wishes
Promises still echo in my head, grey memories of the dead
I cry for all that hopes and dreams that vanished in the flames
And there’ll be nothing left after the rain

Over and over – it went round and round
We excused weak attempts with “at least we were trying”
Over and over – again and again
Thoughts spinning in circles
I’m trapped in this

DYING PARADISE
Nothing to lose in this
DYING PARADISE
Nowhere to run from this
DYING PARADISE
Lost all belief in this
DYING PARADISE
… The only thing I believe in is you

It was way too late
When they realized that
They can’t eat their money or fame
And the earth spit on them like they spit on her
And they went back to from where they came

Ruins, ashes, dust and snow in a world that had to fall
Is everything we will recall
I cried for all the hopes and dreams that vanished in the flames
And there was nothing left after the rain

9. Mystic Symphony

You know that there is no tomorrow
Every day the sun rises again
And with it only depressions
In the ruins that are left of our hearts
Have we ever lived a life?
Tired of giving – TIRED OF LIVING

Blood is on our hands – the liar stops his reign
A life under God is no longer my fate
I seek the knowledge of immortality
I’ll find my way to bleed in harmony
I wear my mask but won’t go on
ON MY WAY TO THE OTHER SIDE
OUT THERE IN THE BRIGHT MOONLIGHT
DIVING IN GRACE I SING
THE MYSTIC SYMPHONY
TO RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE
IN THIS ETERNAL NIGHT
AND THE HARP OF THE ANGELS PLAYS
THE MYSTIC SYMPHONY

The cross as a sign of hope
Is fading away like our remembrances
Like the dead leaves gone with the wind
And the rain keeps falling
Washing away all life

Thus! My travel has begun
Now darkness enshrouds everything
My dark end has begun
And I rush

Through all the times and the places I went by
No surrender but a fulfilling of lies
So I die in the blood of the angels
Under black clouds of sorrow I cry
A journey with no return

ON MY WAY TO THE OTHER SIDE
OUT THERE IN THE BRIGHT MOONLIGHT
DIVING IN GRACE I SING
THE MYSTIC SYMPHONY
TO RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE
IN THIS ETERNAL NIGHT
AND THE HARP OF THE ANGELS PLAYS
THE MYSTIC SYMPHONY

10. Angels War

FOR THE TRUTH – DOWN ON EARTH
PRAY FOR GLORY – FIGHT ALL THE TIME
AND IT’S TRUE – WE CAN NOT DENY
THE SECOND WAR AGAINST OUR CHRIST

As the first of all he was embraced by the light
And was loved more than all of the following
God's image in the mist of a new day
Still was only one of God's creations

And so fall into the pit of time
Some saw deliverance in his words
Fell on their knees so blind
Wings from high above overthrew a damn throne
Blood was spilled in hell for God
And now He's gone

It feels like heaven starts to burn
Nightmare and day unite
What is this for a senseless war
That all brothers have to fight

FOR THE TRUTH – DOWN ON EARTH
PRAY FOR GLORY – FIGHT ALL THE TIME
AND IT’S TRUE – WE CAN NOT DENY
THE SECOND WAR AGAINST OUR CHRIST

They will fight the heaven in all eternity – desperate
Seek the souls of all mankind – annihilate
They will eat their souls and grow – we’ll cry
Forced to strike back
With their blood on our wings we’ll die, but this must take place

11. Take This Light

When all seems lost
You feel all on your own
And pain just tears you apart
Remember this
‘Cause you’re not alone
And listen close to your heart

WHEN YOU’RE FEELING COLD AND SAD AND THIN
YOU CAN RUN TO THE PLACE WHERE THE DOLPHINS SWIM
AND THE SUN WILL SHINE WARM AND BRIGHT DOWN ON YOUR SKIN
TAKE THIS LIGHT AND KEEP IT CLOSE TO YOUR HEART

When black clouds are hanging
Over your head
And you feel like you’re better off dead
Ladybeetles and butterflies
Will land right before your eyes

WHEN I’M FEELING COLD AND SAD AND THIN
I CAN RUN TO THE PLACE WHERE THE DOLPHINS SWIM
AND THE SUN WILL SHINE WARM AND BRIGHT DOWN ON MY SKIN
TAKE THIS LIGHT AND KEEP IT CLOSE TO MY HEART
… CLOSE TO MY HEART
… CLOSE TO MY HEART

12. Masks

Be good, my love
Be strong, my love
Be fast

A garden deep, a garden dark
Through a white mask empty eyes
The day is just another mask
A mind so deep, a mind so dark
Through a white mask empty eyes
Where darkness blooms behind
They bled my light
They bled my light

SO NOW MY WOUND BREEDS LIFE
MY LOVE A BLOOMING NIGHT
ANOTHER DAY IS LEFT BEHIND
I SEE WE ALL WEAR MASKS
TAKE THEM INTO OUR GRAVES AT LAST
ANOTHER LIFE IS LEFT BEHIND

They bled my light
A garden deep, a garden dark
Through a white mask empty eyes
The day is just another mask
A mind so deep, a mind so dark
Through a white mask empty eyes
Where darkness blooms behind
They bled my light
They bled my light

SO NOW MY WOUND BREEDS LIFE
MY LOVE A BLOOMING NIGHT
ANOTHER DAY IS LEFT BEHIND
I SEE WE ALL WEAR MASKS
TAKE THEM INTO OUR GRAVES AT LAST
ANOTHER LIFE IS LEFT BEHIND

13. The Battle Of Waterloo

June the 18th 1815, the battle at "Belle-Alliance"
Marshy fields and pouring rain,
All the blood and the pain
A cannon's fire, cuirassier's attack,
British grenadiers stand tight
Wellington's command "Bluecher or the night",
But no Prussian in sight

The battle of Waterloo
A sea of blood that stains the field
The battle of Waterloo
Lead and steel, the bloody goods
The battle of Waterloo
They fight and die, fall one by one
The battle of Waterloo
A tribute to the bloody death

Fight, fight - you have to stand unite
Kill, kill - come on and have your thrill
Bleed, bleed - your blood flows on the field
Die, die - but nobody will ever cry for you

The french guard marches on and on
Straight towards British lines
Bluecher's Prussians join the fight storming the fire side
The French guards fall one by one but Napoleon has gone
Do you know who's paying the costs?
The little soldier, he's lost

The battle of Waterloo
A sea of blood that stains the field
The battle of Waterloo
Lead and steel, the bloody goods
The battle of Waterloo
They fight and die, fall one by one
The battle of Waterloo
A tribute to the bloody death
