Weakness and lies, has buried your rights In the cemetery of the fallen Redemption in death, is just one more lie The road is leading you to find the nothing So many chances you have left behind Your faces now are falling on the ground You have been chosen but you don’t believe A lifetime and anything was done Don’t tell me you had no chance Don’t tell me it’s late to try Don’t tell me your god is not there Don’t tell me life has no end This wrong World This unknown nature These invisible gods That is your fault! “…Life ends so fast So take your chance And make it last” Trust Yourself… Life burns so fast Your only chance Go until the last Trust Yourself The lives are connected to forms of thought So never give up, because you are fighting! This world belongs to those who dare to win And life is much to be neglected Don’t tell me you have no grace Don’t tell me it’s time to cry Don’t tell me God is unfair Don’t tell me your life has ended

Nonexistence 05:28
Life of glories and frustrations We walk all over the ages Waiting for a bless from heaven Time goes on A cry of sorrow all around us Hearts are lonely, hopes were gone No one feels the lightness of one day No more Love verses to harbor your concern Indulgences to pay for what you learn Where to find this life’s forgiveness? World is crushing everyone You’re just a stumbling block to dogs Sniffing their own Ancient verses, words of freedom Kind rhymes used as a sword Of their domination art Love wasted Your faces Dropped with your pride World of chaos, world of sorrow Turns around again Mirrors always shows illusions Love is with you Dreams of life, thoughts of salvation Wash the brains of human kind Those of mob are elevated To Real Gods Free your mind again Living life away From this nonexistence

Surrender 07:56
You come, stare at me in my dreams day by day My life still rolling aimlessly Look what time has done with me I lay down in old pictures scattered Mirror shows my beauty is fading to black Deep in a distant past I regret Alone, the best days flashed before my eyes Innocence surrounded my pride How can I don’t feel helpless? Over and over, memories were taken We can contemplate the same blue sky I beg for a miracle, down in obsession My future is written in the sands of life Just turn around and don’t let time Erase what’s written in our lives Where waves have covered the dry sand I surrender for your name It’s gone; I feel my heart forsaken now As I wait for a return to the light I count the minutes passing by The sound of life is closer to the end I’m under my image of hell The threshold between life and death Over and over, memories were taken We contemplate this past denied I hope there’s a miracle, for my obsession My future is written in the sands of life Just turn around and don’t let time Erase what’s written in our lives Where waves have covered the dry sand I surrender for your name

I look around A dead man is in the ground I stare at past I see the buried past regrets All my visions dropped away I saw myself In the valley of the death Right by my side Shadows want to be my guide All my visions thrown away Everything I left to fade away No space and time to return Not a new chance to relearn No wasting life to create illusions This time I bleed Down in my own abyss This time I die I’m searching for a man This time I bleed Down in my abyss I face the end A Dead Man I create I understand My reflection rest in peace Pieces of glass Are now stared at my feet Holy sins and all my crimes Six feet under my own pride No green fields in the end Paradise is lost No green plants in the sand Dropped in the mother dust The dust

God be praised, I’m victorious May God give me heaven? She has taken her own life and soul She cannot be saved She is damned it’s God’s decision Is this my Only reward for church’s defending? I shall rise From my own grave to avenge her With all the Powers I took from the darkness The powers of time Could recognize My empty heart Without her life? Die to your breathing life And be reborn to mine To your breathing life Drink and join me in a walk Through the shadows of death Die to your breathing life And be reborn to mine To your breathing life Drink and join me in a walk Feeding on living blood There is no life in this body I’m nothing Lifeless, soulless, hated and feared I’m dead To the entire world, I am cursed Curse of my soul Vampire…to live waiting Serve the Lord and I felt betrayed Where is God? I commanded all by his name He forsake My sword drew blood from the Holy Cross I made the pact Can a love be stronger than death?

Illuminati 07:10
Since the 17th century They showed scientific truth Superior minds among the thoughts of Church A secret knowledge has returned Illumination of the Earth Hunted, killed and forgotten souls Time will come for empty throne Preferitti chosen ones Symbols of a life They were kept in seven keys Misunderstandings and unholy dreams Baptized In science Religion Was blinded New Order Returned then Against the power A shining vision for mankind For the imperfect men A new way of studying Universe And justice will be done Church doctrine is clearly flawed A program to believe in God But science is too young to understand… Through the 17th century They held scientific truth Knowledge they retain, beyond the Faith Reason will command again The Illuminati game Hunted, killed and forgotten man And justice will be done Through the altar’s falling down

It was age of monarchy Not too long ago Injustice and social disparity Had infested Vienna The nation was looking for answers A prison without walls Something they all would believe Another path to walk Something superior All of them began to think That the boy had some power Or at least it was a gift Nothing feels the same Not a wizard, not a saint For whom that old man showed his art Illusion turned against himself The love they don’t permit ‘Cause a princess Could not love again A poor peasant of Vienna Make us disappear Make stop the fear The suspension of disbelief Make us disappear Make stop the fear The suspension of disbelief Magic shows the way! …Life and death space and time Fate and chance, dark and light These are the forces of the universe…” But nothing is what it seems Nothing is what it seems What happened next: a mystery? He traveled all around the world Magic power was increased For the things he learned The man returned and changed his name He was called then Eisenhein To the promise they had made To the same old place After fifteen years Into a sea of tears He appeared right in Vienna Make us disappear Make stop the fear The suspension of disbelief Make us disappear Make stop the fear The suspension of disbelief Magic shows the way! …Life and death space and time Fate and chance, dark and light These are the forces of the universe…” But nothing is what it seems From the farthest corners of the World Where the dark arts still hold sway To show how nature’s law then may be bent…” I’ll give you the Master of Illusions

We could end this show today Discussing about the other side Could the souls endure beyond the end of life? Come here an audience volunteer Someone not afraid of death Then my love appeared But now she is engaged In my life’s mysteries I saw remarkable things everywhere I’ve been I came to find The meaning of life Just turn your face Do you want to leave with me? The only mystery I never solved was the same The only mystery I never let you go away Away I will not stay and fall This time I’ll turn the page What does it mean to die? The Turn after the pledge We will be found The King is around Come for your faith Time for revenge The only mystery I never solved was the same The only mystery I never let you go away Away This time I’ll turn the page What does it mean to die? The Turn after the pledge This time I’ll turn the page What does it mean to die? The Turn after the pledge …Life and death space and time Fate and chance, dark and light These are the forces of the universe…” But nothing is what it seems From the farthest corners of the World Where the dark arts still hold sway To show how nature’s law then may be bent…” I’ll give you the Master of Illusions

I sent my men to follow her She’s been walking with her friend We believe they may be escaping It’s the failure of my plan Did you spend the night with him? Yes, I know I was betrayed She said “I won’t be the part of your power plan And I won’t marry you…” You’ll be mine to seal the deal Rules of our society I always have what I desire Your position is guaranteed So return into the scene Don’t make me lose my mind, this fault I won’t forgive! Her blood spilled until her death Was it a knife or a sword? That dark night the prince just killed her ‘Cause he couldn’t let her go!! Necromancy is a crime! But her ghost is lying here She is telling us the truth Can we hold the assassin? Behind the curtains It’s all a trick It’s all an illusion We have to realize Unholy spirits Control your mind The soul’s endurance Beyond the end of the show of Life The end of life Have you ever wondered what is founded in the other side? Intrigues us as a magic trick Why don’t we just live for the dreams? Blood is falling from your hands Soldiers come to take him down! Accusations never end The prince committed suicide Secret of the orange tree I found out the trick was real The last trump of the illusionist Runaway with your princess!! “…Life and death space and time Fate and chance, dark and light These are the forces of the universe…” But nothing is what it seems “From the farthest corners of the World Where the dark arts still hold sway To show how nature’s law then may be bent…” I’m the Master of Illusions Nothing is what it seems…
