Prologue:
In a very distant future, the last generation of planet earth
Has come to a point where they cannot breed anymore.
When everybody had lost their faith, a child was born, but no
One could be the father, except for a god.
This child was a gift from the skies of life-divine or...

Another sky is young...
Another breed, another cast.
Another frozen future has passed.
The rivers will run, brought to life by the sun, the circle is
Still unbroken.
Oh, what a sight to see.
Reborn life, destined for all eternity.
Hail the king!
For he has chosen not to drain the godsent child, a gift from
The skies of life divine.
Now we know.
A glimpse of hope grow inside, a change of tide.
The offspring of the unknown gods beautifies the aura of this
Miracles.
Answered prayers of survival.
Dying breed.
So they succeed in their quest for continued time.
Celebrate.
Cursed to be walkin in the shadows of death for a lifetime.
The knowledge of the everlasting, never-dying.
No more fears for what the years will bring.
Rebuild the shattered dream.
And now a brighter future has come, another end remains undone
And an era begins,
Oh, it's a token, the circle is broken.
Bringing life free from sins.
Ground.
(The drop of blood from her mouth slowly fell down to the
Th child inside dried her out. The king's beloved is no more.)
The chosen one felt the time had come to show the world what
Had grown within.
This day of life, a sacred moment in time, when joy and pain
Collide.
It takes a life to create a life.
Now she's gone.
Fear and despair fills up his mind.
Anger and hate.
In search for answers he can't find.
What god would end a life so pure.
She was the one worth dying for.
Alone with princess angel-sent.
Her eyes so blue, my hate relents.
Her destiny is in my hands.
She was born to rule these desert lands.
[A sacrifice.
( Vocals Mike: )
I let her go and I do not know where to find her soul so alo-
A life arises, when one love has come, another dies.
Ne.]
Oh, does she hold the power, is she a blessing from the skies?
Is this the answer to where the secret lies.
And in her eyes I see a light is shining through.
I feel that there is hope for a world so brave and new.
Many seasons have changed and the king is old and weak.
The princess has come of age, but still the gift of life they
Seek.
In the chambers of crimson sleep.
In this vault of souls to reap.
The future lies in the hands of the shrewd (Harmony: Andreas)
Or the earth will die in solitude.

The darkest night the enchanted skies were united in a storm.
Unholiness and all that's unblessed appeared in another form.
Like a raging plague all across the land all women gave birth
To man.
Raped by the wind and forced to bring life to the hundred
Bastard sons.
The unholy ones will give strength for all evil to live and
The fires of death burn high.
The time has come for the king to die. (Lead Guitar: Mike)
A whole world is mourning the loss of their king.
In sorrow a new day dawning.
Now the princess is their everything.
A procession to the chambers where they kiss their fathers
Ring.
Can you hear the angel of sadness sing... with broken wings.
(Harmony: Andreas)
And with death came disorder, who were they now to obey?
No leader, no followers.
No trust, no faith.
The princess is too young to tame a land, a new king must be
Chosen.
In search for such a man of trust there will be contradicti-
Ons.
Coming forth on desert ground, the incarnation of a king in
Sleep profound.
Another self-proclaimed king, set to rule in the new empire.
On a mission to save the forsaken ones and to re-light the
Dying fire.
The crowd was confused and divided in two, a battle was about
To begin.
Another man with a will as strong declared a war to win.
His army of believers was faithful, mighty and brave.
Set to capture the liar, to forever enslave.
His troops were marching on to the battlefield to set this
World on fire.
His forces are never giving yield.

[War! They fought for what would be a blood-stained crown.
Utter chaos supreme.
The sand absords the colour of dawn.
Nevermore shall they dream, nevermore.]
The years went by under a blood-red sky, the king still sup-
Press the rebellian lie.
He is the one, the self-chosen son, master of the throne he
Rules upon.
The sacred child awakened from her crystal sleep.
And the earth was shaking, and the people prayed for their
Souls to keep.
The light of day is flowing into her virgin eyes.
Oh, the sun is stolen.
A dark formation in the skies.
Unites the powers in her eyes.
Her soul's inhaling all the living light.
Bringing on the dark, eternal night.
Gathering evil in all it's might.
Seven years.
Purity.
Innocence.
Dignity.
Hail, hail the queen!
Ruling supreme.
She is queen alone in the human zone, dethroned the king unpure.
The masses were assured, she fought without a sword.
She regained their hope and faith.
Draining the liar in the crimson water.
To bring him eternal pain.
His soul is slaughtered.
Eternalizing bane.
Scream in silence, noone shall hear his cries encaged.
The unroyal king, surrended to the child of life divine.
A hundred fortnights passed but still no signs of aging.
Her endless youth... amazed, the world was raging.
A shattered race in this broken land this child came to resto-
Re, like an order from the gods.
The queen and all the children gathered around the chambers
Where the elder ones are joined
In sleep profound.
In wrath she crush the tanks of crystal glass.
Cration.
The crimson water gushed on to the ground in the unholy mace-
Their souls no longer cried.
Die!
Their gift are denied.

[She drinks the life-blood from the feebled man.
Finally given the pleasure to die.
Empty bodies, soul-drained by the vrigin queen.
She aligns the hate inside their hearts.
Her chosen knights will make sure all life departs.

Soon comes the end of all, she watched a chamber fall.
"Live my words, oh, sacred child. You're soon to leave this
She heard her master call.]
World defiled."
"Then what awaits me my lord?"
"Trust me my child, your wishes shall not be ignored"
And then he spoke his mind, now his will is hers.
"The earth shall fall. The eternal curse is cast on the sands
They walk.
Now you must use your power. Show the human race you are the
One.
Use their trust forever and then deceive their weakened minds.
Fool them to destroy themselves in hopelessness.
Belie their seeds, belie their dreams. Hope has ceased to be."
The people worshiped their queen.
Such beauty before her time was unseen.
Their were fooled by her presence and disguise.
Faithfully they listened and swallowed all her lies.
"The times are changing, re-arranging he pattern of our lives.
So let your heart stop beating beneath this twisted sky."
They were embraced by sadness, but not afraid to die.
"So pass this sacred dagger and let yourself fly free.
So pretend you're dreaming and rise above this world of you
And me."

[Liar!
All those who died with you by their side were denied access
To the higer ground.
Betrayal.
Eternal detest from the ones left unblessed, so possessed.
Their last caress was your knife in their hearts.
Fed from her deed, watching them bleed.
In her own conceit, a world to delete, lies at her feet.
Her demon inside do no longer hide.
Showing it's face of hate and disgrace leaving their saviour
Unpraised.]

Now sharing this moment of grief.
The ones who didn't follow.
The end of their own ex
