SLEEPING GODS LYRICS

1. H99

Now it's the time when mankind is dying out
If you believe in the words of the pessimists
I'll be high, I'll be down, I am full of pride
No fear, no doubts, just let it flow

Resurrection, the words' incarnation
...

It's the last year of the tides, 1999
Just enjoy the free fall to the end of time
I'll be high, I'll be down, I am full of pride
No fear, no doubts, just let it flow
...
I hope that we soon are in the 21th century
99 is not responsible for your destiny
I'll be high, I'll be down, I am full of pride
No fear, no doubts, just let it flow
...
Say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye, my friend
To your life, to the future and to your land
I'll be high, I'll be down, I am full of pride
No fear, no doubts, just let it flow

2. Together As One

We are the reincarnation of innocence
We are the return of perseverance
We are the rebirth of the rising sun
Back in the time when all has begun
You and me as one

We are the angels, are the devils
live in heaven and hell

We are the angels, die little sorrow, leave our heart
We are the angels, die little sorrow, leave our soul
We are the angels, die little sorrow, leave our heart
We are the devils, we live in heaven and we live in hell

Recognize the brightest star in the nightfall
Find us again in the oldest of all murals
Read about us in the first story
Feel the miracle what is meant by being free
You and me as one

We are the angels, are the devils
live in heaven and hell

3. Sweet Suffering

I am living here beyond the ground
In this dark, in this cold and lonelyness
I myself chose to lay me down here
It differs not from life with dead minds above

I enjoy my fate in sweet suffering
I long for the gods' gathering

No change when I make my presence felt
I am just taken by naivety and hope
I my self chose to lay me down here
It differs not from life with dead minds above

I enjoy my fate in sweet suffering
I am dreaming of something like... this
...No...

I don't believe you anymore
That we dream the same dream
I my self chose to lay me down here
It differs not from life with dead minds above

I enjoy my fate in sweet suffering
I long for the gods' gathering

4. Meridian

I feel like
I haven't a god in my life
But I am crying tears for
What thousand men did before
And their souls longed for mercy

Like a thousand dreams in one night
It wants me going insane
When the past came to hold me tight
And my soul longs for mercy

Hear my words I want to hall up high
Whispered out with the last breath
Remember me as a brave
And my soul feels your mercy

5. My Favorite

Now I scream my dream out
And my dream has always been you
longing for my sweetheart passion
the sweetest passion existing for me
My vampires' dream is an ocean of blood

And in my deepest desire
It lives the unite with your soul
It is my favourite daydream
Favorite daydream which comes true
My vampires' dream is an ocean of blood

I have walked through valleys and mountains
I've lived with people in all the centuries
I have seen the world through different eyes
But there is only one thing that remains

6. Away

Away
it takes him far away to a distant place
Away

A night on the tiles in the land of Nod
Take leave of your sences but gather up the threads
Are you in a fog or in the cold light of day
Feeling as right as rain
Our hearts bleed for him
Cheek by jowl with you
No one call a spade
It runs it's course with him
Do not run out of steam
You take our breath away
Take our breath away
The tail wags the dog
Do not swim against the tide
Gather up the treads
The sky's is not the limit

7. (Interlude)

[Instrumental]

8. Where The Flavour Is

And a rat-racing begins
Turn a deaf ear to what I sing
Dated out of what I live
I'm not getting but I give
Where the flavour is

At night you hear me scream
Hear me laugh
in your sweet dream
Death as target, life as way
Hate as duty, love not to betray

I'm your madness see me grow
Guiding your blood, let it flow
What I feel and what I see
It is the pain of your reality

9. Scene Of Emptyness

This scene of emptiness belongs to me
Keeps my mind deprived of sense
Anonymous thoughts torment my soul
With pain of desperation

Writhe with pain in fetter of condamnation
Fragments of past got cold shadows
Anguish of isolation breaks me
Lost strenghts can't fight against

Dive into the sees of illusion
Glisten in light of forgotten souls
Melancholy escape on a path leading
Into passionate waves of madness

10. Down The Earth

Down, your words they tear me down
Your negative thoughts are killing

Down, your words they tear me down
The mind is limited, heart stands still

The face it looks like a stone
Down, your words they tear me down

Your red blood in vain
Lie low the same

High and mighty the last word
High hand fallen down the earth

11. A Nine Days Wonder

[Instrumental]
