XIV DARK CENTURIES LYRICS

1. For Your God

humans torture humans - for their god

they break its wills - for their god
they nailed bodies to the cross - for their god
they let pyres burn - for their god

centuries went by full of war, death and sorrow
and the adored god was not able to do anything against it

[Refr:]
but the god to which belongs their belief and their soul
doesn´t exist don´t believe their lies,
liberate the thoughts of your brain and have the courage
to believe in your own power

mothers sacrificed their children - for their god
walled in alive - for their god
they died of their pains - for their god
The fire of their sins burns - for their god

centuries went by full of war, death and sorrow
and the adored god was not able to do anything against it

[Refr:]
but the god to which belongs their belief and their soul doesn´t exist don´t believe their lies,
liberate the thoughts of your brain and have the courage
to believe in your own power

for your god
for your god
for your god

4. Our Mighty Fortress (Castrum Haltinberc)

since more than onethousand years
surrounded by majestic peaks,
built at giant rocks,
the old walls of the frightening fortress are standing

many dark princes reigned
at our mighty castle in the forest
thousands of brave warriors died at it`s rampart
and drenched the mountains with their blood

hundreds of battles the knights stroke,
desperate fights for power and immortality
in union with dark forces
the magnificient building got unconquerable

our mighty castle, since more than onethousand years
a sign for war, death and ruin - unbendable
against the hated enemy
it got the symbol for destruction

just today we`re standing at our majestic fortress
icy northwind is blowing through the abyssed walls
and we are looking
into the white snowcovered country

steamed through by this cold night
we feel the anger of the warriors
and hear the battlesound of swords and axes,
out of times long ago in the halls of our fortress

5. Lost Dreams

loneliness surrounds me and my thougths
I submit to destiny
in my empty eyes
my lost dreams are mirrored back

my thoughts lead me on never entered paths
but where do the ways end?
I just see bleak blackness
but I can never turn back again

my feets want me no longer to take
life makes me tired
I only want to sleep-finally sleep
and forget my lost dreams

I dream the dream of eternity
I would it with pleasure become real
and I will be no longer taken in
by the illusion of life

life seems forgotten
the day, the night,
the senseless memories
mirrors themselve back in my lost dreams

a life in a world without light
controlled by the bleakness of my thoughts
which drives me slowly into abyss
untill the eternal blackness surrounds me

the shackles, which chain me to life
become weaker and weaker
done with life, I'm ready to face the death
to forget my lost dreams forever
