Album Lyrics
1. Kings and Queens
Spinning round and around
Caught in a trap
In a lazy, mundane life
Where the master’s the slave
Striving on through the dark
And into the light
Each day that passes by
Lost in the void of the night
Take command and rise from slumber
Our time must not waste away
We’re the rulers of our destinies
We’re the kings and queens of our day
Take command and rise from slumber
Our time must not waste away
We’re the rulers of our destinies
We’re the kings and queens of our day
Even the simplest of goals
And the simplest of days
Can be reached in a manner
That enlightens the way
Don’t let the wheel of life
Turn off your mind
But grasp hold of your fate
And leave old pathways behind
Take command and rise from slumber
Our time must not waste away
We’re the rulers of our destinies
We’re the kings and queens of our day
Take command and rise from slumber
Our time must not waste away
We’re the rulers of our destinies
We’re the kings and queens of our day
Take command and rise from slumber
Our time must not waste away
We’re the rulers of our destinies
We’re the kings and queens of our day
2. Desert Dreams
Chased by the sun
I’m running through the sand
Ever burning up like a light
I veer to the left
I’m rushing to the right
Losing my mind in the fight
I cannot hide from my own mind
Cannot escape it alone
Is giving up the answer?
Face the fear grow stronger by the scars
I rest my weary head as I close my eyes to sleep
Yet the demons once again come around
The more I try to fight
The more I will lose
I am lost in desert dreams
By the vultures to be found
Find the mirage
To occuppy the mind
Only to be fooled again
The hunter is there
They never give in
My sanity the prey of the day
I cannot hide from my own mind
Cannot escape it alone
Is giving up the answer?
Face the fear grow stronger by the scars
I rest my weary head as I close my eyes to sleep
Yet the demons once again come around
The more I try to fight
The more I will lose
I am lost in desert dreams
By the vultures to be found
I rest my weary head as I close my eyes to sleep
Yet the demons once again come around
The more I try to fight
The more I will lose
I am lost in desert dreams
By the vultures to be found
I rest my weary head as I close my eyes to sleep
Yet the demons once again come around
The more I try to fight
The more I will lose
I am lost in desert dreams
By the vultures to be found
3. Redeem and Repent
Trapped in a travesty of jokers at the lead
Soundtrack to this comedy of lament for those who read
Honor flanked intellect and fell into the well
Like a child’s reasoning would open the gates of hell
The scepter is stolen by a jester in the king’s court
Beware of his temper, beware of his pride
Wise men bang their heads against the wall
Heed the sinister call
Clowns have the word
Fools have the day
Meanings are blurred
As sense flies away
Let’s sing the anthem of mental eclipse
As the children play chess with the world
Hearken the choirs, redeem and repent
The winds of doom sweep across these pleasant lands
With a sound of prophecy of darker times at hand
Heedful enlightened rule slips into the void
Out from the shadows steps a cranky boy
The scepter is stolen by a jester in the king’s court
Beware of his temper, beware of his pride
Wise men bang their heads against the wall
Heed the sinister call
Clowns have the word
Fools have the day
Meanings are blurred
As sense flies away
Let’s sing the anthem of mental eclipse
As the children play chess with the world
Hearken the choirs, redeem and repent (X3)
4. Bland sump och dy
Månen sänker sitt karga sken
Över sumpmark som slumra
Nattens spegel kall och len
I mörkret blänka och skimra
Genom skogen går de själar än
Som vila i bland sump och dy
Likt stoder mot dyster sky
Mången ensliger tuva
Under mossens gungfly
Svunna offer de ruva
Genom skogen går de själar än
Som vila i bland sump och dy
Himlens rodnad sen länge flydd
Likt de offer nu glömda
Vars gravar i vassens skydd
Ligga ryngda och dömda
Genom skogen går de själar än
Som vila i bland sump och dy
Än stå mossen i sorgens skrud
Mellan granar och tallar
Jämte månen ljusets brud
När gryningstimman nu kallar
Genom skogen går de själar än
Som vila i bland sump och dy
5. Fool’s Crusade
See the fool that dances on his grave
To the sound of the burial march
Dance for the hunger
Dance for the thirst
Quell them both with doom
See the fool prancing into his grave
Play minstrel play
A song in minor key
Sing it to the crowd
And for the kings to be
Lost are the traces of yesterday’s gods
On the day when he claimed their place
Lost is the reverence, lost in the awe
For the land, for the sea, for the sky.
Into the dark, a proud parade is marching on
Under the sign of enlightenment
A fool’s crusade (X2)
Play minstrel play
On fiddle and on flute
In the light of fire
In this cold night
Lost are the shelters of yesterday’s world
On the day when we sold it out
Lost is the reverence, lost in the awe
For the land, for the sea, for the sky.
Caressed by the sweet sunlight
Tumorous skin needs tanning
Swim in toxic rivers
Hail the countryside
Feel the wind in your hair
Feel the stench in your nostrils
Numb your consciousness with pleasure
Hail the country died
Crush the dream and wake up, ignorant one!
Kill the fool, kill him now!
The end has begun
Play minstrel play
For the fall of man
Celebrate his name
And his master plan
Lost are the pillars on which he once ruled
On the day when he blames himself
Lost is the reverence, lost in the awe
For the land, for the sea, for the sky.
Into the dark, a proud parade is marching on
Under the sign of enlightenment
A fool’s crusade (X2)
6. Garnets and a Gilded Rose
(Instrumental)
7. In Regal Attire
Proudly he stands
To fatherly posture they yield
Goodwill gone sour
Like golden fallacy
Eat from his hand
Beware of the claws concealed
In quest for power
With manners gallantly
Hearken and behold
Deceit unfolds
Before your very eyes
Travesty dies
Stature he seeks
By claiming the crown with a lie
Confidence bleeds
Honesty comes undone
Climbs on the weak
to build himself up to the sky
Grandeur and greed
Goes hand in hand as one
Hearken and behold
Deceit unfolds
Before your very eyes
Travesty dies
Hoist the flag
Higher and higher
You boast and you brag
In regal attire (X2)
Hoist the flag
Higher and higher
You boast and you brag
In regal attire (X4)
8. Rejoice the Adorned
As the shadows they linger throughout the days
With no sun to break through the clouds
See the loss as a token of value and grace
Though my heart’s in a shroud
Rejoice the adorned with a tear and a sigh
Love is eternal, eternal love never dies
Rejoice the adorned and smile in the rain
Relive the memories, cherish the pain
In the night I wander a lonely trail
With the weary soul of mine
I will never let your memory set sail
May it forever shine
Rejoice the adorned with a tear and a sigh
Love is eternal, eternal love never dies
Rejoice the adorned and smile in the rain
Relive the memories, cherish the pain
With the tide of tomorrow
It might all fade and soon waste away
Far…far… far from sorrow
Rejoice the adorned with a tear and a sigh
Love is eternal, eternal love never dies
Rejoice the adorned and smile in the rain
Relive the memories, cherish the pain
Love is eternal, eternal love never dies
Rejoice the adorned and smile in the rain
Relive the memories, cherish the pain
9. Testify
Don’t speak your mind
But pick your words with caution
Chain up your tongue
Don’t ever speak from your heart
Who could be hurt?
Who could be judging what you say?
Where can it lead?
Think twice before you proceed
Supervised
Analyzed
Hide from the eyes
To the ones above
And to the ones below
To the gathered crowds
I must justify
Justify my dos
And justify my don’ts
To my name and honor
I must testify
Don’t lose your hold
On your true emotions
You bite your tongue
And think of what you stand for
Behind your back
Potential judges and usurpers
Inside your mind
The aggravation grinds
Supervised
Analyzed
Hide from the eyes
To the ones above
And to the ones below
To the gathered crowds
I must justify
Justify my dos
And justify my don’ts
To my name and honor
I must testify
Do you know what you say?
Do you know what they hear?
Read your opponents
And mold yourself into a valueless man
Serve all your statements
Upon an impartial tray of ice
Then you close the door and you scream
To the ones above
And to the ones below
To the gathered crowds
I must justify
Justify my dos
And justify my don’ts
To my name and honor
I must testify (X3)
10. Thrust the Dagger Deep
I thought I now had come to die
Just a cold corpse, my farewell
Until I suddenly gasped for air
And the tears so softly fell
If not, fate thinks more of me
Than chiming the bells at noon
Grasp the handle by all means
And thrust the dagger deep
Call it revelation or curse
Should I tremble or should I cheer?
The shadows dancing across the walls
A mockery ever so clear
If it’s written that under the sun
It’s time for me to sleep
Grasp the handle by all means
And thrust the dagger deep
When the final dawn is here,
Silent and oh so steep
Grasp the handle by all means
And thrust the dagger deep
11. Rapture
Hail the welkin’s evening gown
And the diamonds up high
I write my ode full of awe
Under turning night skies
See the touch of the divine
On the canvas sublime
See the stars meet their end
As the new day ascends
Into the bower of bosky vaults
Upon the misty pathway
To be draped by the moon
And by its gloomy veil
I hear a solemn serenade
All my demons away!
Drink the wine of the dark
And feel the light of the day
Upon the shoulders of mountain high
Upon the boulders of grey
Covered by autumn clouds
As the sights fade away
Behold a silent majesty
Standing lonely and proud
In its marvel and its might
In its misty shroud
Winds and storms, lakes rivers and seas
Sun and sky, land, forests and heaths
Mark well what is said here
As I’m filled with rapture
I sail on raging waves
Onto a distant shore
Cross the vast seven seas
I feel peace in the storms
Fear the darkness of the deep
Ever present the void
As alone as one can be
I feel nothing but joy.
