THE DOOMSDAY KINGDOM LYRICS

1. Silent Kingdom

Dead city below
A kingdom for the invited
Arrête de la mort
You'll enter the funeral empire

Where is the sun?
Where is the light in your eyes?
Why were you born?
You sons of a lost paradise

Two hundred steps
Down to a secret land
Six million skulls
There is no love for the damned

Oh, hear the king calling
The silent kingdom will rise
He sings the names of the fallen
The silent kingdom will rise

"We wish you could stay"
There's a voice that never knew Christ
And I saw the dead pray
In the cathedral of sighs

Oh, and I wish
The dead will find their light
Go back to their graves
And sleep... in endless night

2. Never Machine

Rain and fire, thunder sky... vortex drifting
Hidden deep in the holes of time
Reality's shifting
Close your eyes for the machine
Hell construction
Will come and take your inner dreams
Into the nothing

The machine is ancient, black and old
Doomsday tool
Got no feelings, the heart is cold
In the hands of fools
From the future, from the past, eons of crumbling
It will blow your mind to kingdom come
Void is rumbling

Never machine
The never machine
You stare into the emptiness
Never machine
The never machine
Erasing all the yesterdays

Evil thing... you'll eat the light inside my soul
Life's forgotten
It leaves no shadow, leaves no hope
Black machine... box of smoke and sorrow
Press the button
And your dreams are swallowed whole

3. A Spoonful of Darkness

A spoonful of darkness
A mouthful of rain
Small bits of misery
And half a pound of pain

In the evening I spit the poison in your soup
In the morning I give my powers just to you
The fire demon's crawling in the midnight stew
Never heartless
Love and darkness

A well of exhaustion
Naked and low
I'm a tear in the lake
The scrape in the bowl

The fever... I'll take my sickness to the stars
As a titan I will fight there on the fields of mars
Like Lazarus I will take my bed and hate again
In desperation
In desperation

A spoonful of darkness
Splinters of joy
Mountains of madness
Too big to destroy

Rivers of weakness
Fragments of happiness
Cups filled with sadness
For an afraid little boy

4. See You Tomorrow

[Instrumental]

5. The Sceptre

Their war was without no end
A 1001 dark dreams
The red queen and the black (the swan)
Sisters... enemies

The red and the black queens at war
From dawn to dusk and over again
For the crown, the kingdom, a throne
For the sceptre and the power

Through the garden and the willow trees
The red queen rides on her rat
With armour and sword in hand
The spear of fate on her back

A sceptre for a queen
A sceptre for a queen
Kill the evil queen

The red queen, the warrior, the brave
Charged forward on her rat
The black swan furious with rage
Spread her wings for attack

She drowned her sister with fire
And the red one put the sword in her twin
The sceptre was lost in the battle
Now, let the war begin

In the ruins of the castle walls
The swans saw the new day sun
And the black swan with the crown on her head
Rose from the ivory throne

A sceptre for a queen
A sceptre for a queen
Kill the evil queen
Here comes the queen

6. Hand of Hell

Harvester of temptation... the finger of fire
With a robe of stars
He falls through the night
Nightmare eyes... like two dead oceans
Lifeless grey, with the colour of hunger

And I go... where you go
Guided by the hand of hell
Towards tomorrow, the finger points
Oh I must follow... the hand of hell
There's no hiding... from the hand of hell

Blood is on your lips... wings of venom
Toxic aura... seeking souls
Lazy norns of fate... you see ill will great
At the crossroads we stand there alone

And I go... where you go
'Cause I am guided by the hand of hell
Towards tomorrow, the finger points
Oh I must follow... the hand of hell

Oh, we're like phantoms
On a black painted ship
With death in our eyes
In pursuit of the impossible dream
With the hand of hell at the wheel

On the devil's road we ride tonight
We come from darkness and in darkness we fight
Soldiers of the flame... blind amongst the blind
Bloodstained inside, bloodstained light

7. The Silence

I listen for the silence... oh, day after day
To hear it come, a rolling in... wave after wave
I'm longing for the tranquil to sweep me away
But the more I chase the silence, the more the thunder will stay!

I can hear the echoes...
Of the words that have been said
From the dawn of our creation
To the depth of our graves
I will give my every penny, all the silver, all the cred
To get the fucking roaring, out of my head

Now the music stopped
The curtain dropped
The room is fading
And the lightning goes
When the silence closes in
And I fear the light, I hear the night
And I dread the whisper
As I see the wall of silence closing in

It hits me hard... it takes me far
The sweet smell of boredom
Gives piece of mind... when silence's rolling in
Here it comes again... my dearest friend
Desolation
And I see the wall of silence closing in

Here comes chaos crashing - evil notes I play
Chords of fire and fashion - every single day
Kings they dream of pity - I just want to rest
See the sunken temples - 'fore I turn to ash
In the tallest lighthouse - in the smallest crowd
Oh, the purest silence - can become too loud

Who can save me now, when the silence closes in?

8. The God Particle

I see you in the water
Galaxies and dreams
Spirals on your skin
An image on the screen
You were hidden in the clouds
Like a circle in the lake
Floating in the universe
Secret, ancient, great

Are we stuff of stars?
Vagabonds in time?
Aftershocks of chaos
Still makes waves in my wine
I wonder in my mind
Why is beauty born?
Is the little hand holding the keys to heaven's door?

I see you in the water
Galaxies and dreams
Spirals on your skin
An image on the screen
God's own milky spill
On the cosmic floor
What is this thing that waits inside the mother core?
Atoms did collide
Particles explode
Who is the master maker?
Don't ask me, I don't know

Sleep captain sleep
It's dark and sweet
Inside your capsule
The world is standing still

Dream captain dream
Towards the morning
From the wrong side of creation
To the brink of the day

Shine on, shine through space and time
With clouds and rainbows inside your eyes

I look at you, you look at me
From the wrong side of creation
It doesn't matter to me
