Tears Of A Mandrake
by Edguy Gaze at the leaving clairvoyant Predicting inovasions and pain A child can see trough the stranger The watcher's eye , the noble liar It's time for the merchant, and his help for sale Blades to cut wicked flesh On a merchantman he counts his money Then he sales away The sea he'll cruise blood and fire Oh father i can't see a lane They make you a pawn in a game For we are all deaf, dumb and blind Chorus: After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Pawn in the game, invisible chains Try to move, you'll feeel as the graze After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Fading away, the final decay Try to move, break out from your chains When you're of to the hall of the serpent See the synic who's counting his gold While gun runners, priests and clairvoyants Are dancing around the rising demon You are taught to eat up all the crap they shit Parading your nuts on a silver plate Kill your brother by the blade they sell For you don't unite They reap your bondage sowing evil There's no use to tell what i've seen they know how to make you belive Just what they want you to know Chorus: After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Pawn in the game, invisible chains Try to move, you'll feel as the graze After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Fading away, the final decay Try to move, break out from your chains Tears of mandrake - yeah Chorus: After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Pawn in the game, invisible chains Try to move, you'll feeel as the graze After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Fading away, the final decay Try to move, break out from your chain Chorus: After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Pawn in the game, invisible chains Try to move, you'll feeel as the graze After the storm when the magic has gone Drown in the tears of a mandrake Fading away, the final decay Try to move, break out from your chain |

Jerusalem - Edguy
Cold in the wind, starless the night Rain pouring down when the last one arrives So many stories telling of pain Are told by the freaks they've been throwing away Ride out, set off to the sea Odd fellows, you and me Sail on to a world far away That might not exist, we must be insane Torn and feathered Put in the pillory my friend Accused as a fool marching on In quest for a place they don't know To Jerusalem The piper inside, can't you feel him calling You don't be afraid of the horizon To Jerusalem Don't you give in to their fingers pointing So don't be afraid, you won't crash at the horizon The dwarf and the giant, children who stray The dreamer who's walking far off their way A jester cast out, he can't laugh anymore Here comes the freakshow... Welcome on aboard Torn and feathered They'll never get what you say Kill what they don't understand Don't know and don't even try To Jerusalem The piper inside, can't you feel him calling You don't be afraid of the horizon To Jerusalem Don't you give in to their fingers pointing So don't be afraid, you won't crash at the horizon Torn and feathered Put in the pillory my friend Accused as a fool marching on In quest for a place they don't know To Jerusalem The piper inside, can't you feel him calling You don't be afraid of the horizon To Jerusalem Don't you give in to their fingers pointing So don't be afraid, you won't crash at the horizon |

All The Clowns
by Edguy When you're walking down the empty road Feel like creeping, crawling, cold and bare And you're afraid of Mistery Scary-face Don't turn around since you may find him there A fire of hope has turned into smoke, The child to a man It's nothing but grey painting your way And no one could ever tell... Tell me why all the clowns have gone Tell me where did they run Just when I close my eyes I can see them arise Fool tell me where did you go Foll tell me why did you go away, all the clowns On and on, tomorrow's yesterday No more tears allowed, you'll stand your pain The child inside will die for liber |

Nailed On The Wheel
by Edguy Good intentions pave the way of the human child Heading for the fork as you walk the path of life A spell cast from the hiding woods, don't you close your eyes The snake is waiting anytime to penetrate your mind Don't you hear voices whispering, incline to walk down Don't you see the shadow on the wall, angel eyes... the one cast out to fall Calling me to look up to the sky we follow but we never know oh why A vision revealing a child down where I've sure never been An angel who's touching the flame, oh the angel is me ★ Nailed, nailed to the wheel - Nailed, let the cut run deep Nailed, nailed to the wheel - Nailed, I said go - let bleed! Go, - let bleed!★ Feel it crawl, feel the magic coming over like a daze Welcome as the poison for the cornered snake Taste of sin, bitter sweet, never, never let us go But never, never, never is a price we'd pay to grow They call it original sin, some call it divine The moment the evil appeared... the chance to decide From children in cradles to hangmen who smile Lick up the blood from the blade of your knife Walk the stairway, leading down, ride on fire, take the crown Your mind could be strong but your flesh will be mine He's offering those kingdoms, they all could be thine Rising powers, tempting gold, but at what price would it be sold? It's all up to you... |

From the cradle of silence and of light
It took a birth in human blood - angels cry - To the ages of violence and of hate To explore the left hand path I came alive Into my striding, the shell of a god in the cold My soul is just hiding, my spirit haunting on to control Flame of the Nile, fire in the darkness To swallow the light Behold the ghost of a god God from the Nile, eternally roaming To swallow the light Behold the spirit of a pharaoh, Pharaoh, pharaoh, no! To the world of spirits he's sailling on and on Why magician don't you feel they broke the seal Cyril's facing the tyrant everywhere Far away from his grave, Seth is free Roaming through ages Begetting advice for your kings, yow... Leading the stages Of history that's bound to my strings, no, no, no... Flame of the Nile, fire in the darkness To swallow the light Behold the ghost of a god God from the Nile, eternally roaming To swallow the light Behold the spirit of a pharaoh, Pharaoh, pharaoh Don't you see that it's coming, it's near The wise man screamed in the noble chamber Just a parrot in a rich man's cage He's a jester on the count The wise man died and the seance went on And the red one reigned in the noble chamber In dreams of a masterplan For a billion parrots in a big cage Afraid of the eyes that shine in the darkness You don't realize, afraid in the haze You point at the man that grins in your nightmare And don't realize the mirror you gaze into You don't wanna see the spirits behind sceneries I guide your away I make you stay alive My servants taught you know how to survive The way of light is food for your soul But it's your belly that's taken control No guiding light would shine anymore It's just the red god replacing the core He'll rise again to open up the gate We have to learn for our future, our fate... Flame of the Nile, fire in the darkness To swallow the light Behold the ghost of a god God from the Nile, eternally roaming To swallow the light Behold the spirit of a pharaoh, Pharaoh, pharaoh The ghost of a god... Slave to the pyramid... |

Wash Away The Poison
by Edguy Here alone now I'm staring at the sea Behind the far horizon Is there a better place for me? Afraid to drown, afraid to dive Scared by fears and the hot sunlight, yeah And I dance in the rain, dive in the pool of life Wash away the poison And I dance through this pain, my body in a starless night To wash away the poison from my soul, turn it to gold Between the devil and the deep sea I don't know how to carry on I only feel that inner force that's pushing me along The tides of life bring clarity for my tumbling mind I'll dive to see, set me free |

Fallen Angels - Edguy
Sun going down, she opens her eyes It's dark in the belfry and cold Whispers of rain, wind in the sky So long it's been all she's been told Dream child, you're all alone Roaming though the night Scream child, lost and ashamed For all the tears you cry You're a child in sadness A chessboard nightmare to go Hear that silent symphony Calling you up to the shore and you'll see us chorus] As we sail away, moonstruck and astray We're fallen angels We're the scary tale to scare your mind away From fallen angels So many days wasted in haze You're free, oh so free on their strings Illusions of life, they say you can fly They laugh and they cut off your wings Night child, they give you steel And make you believe that it's gold Lies child, all that you're told Is just what you shall know When they 'know' we are evil We're strangers And danger and fire, The dark and the light We are eyes in the night Lost souls' they curse For we've found it inside - oh As we sail away, moonstruck and astray We're fallen angels We're the scary tale to scare your mind away From fallen angels Ohhh, yeah... When they say you're a fossil When their eyes nail you to the cross Take their curse and join our way Welcome my frien on the ship of the damned - oh [repeat chorus] |

Painting On The Wall
by Edguy Strong on your feet, you were blinded Building up a towar on shaking ground Once in a world full of colors Back to see just ruins there to be found And now you're falling, crawling Diggin in the broken remains Of what had to be taken for strong Slowly it's been fading away Come into the painting on the wall So the joker smiles Come into the painting on the wall No more crying Illusions let you in from the rain Follow Mr. Hopkins, get insane Stories are told - wanna hear him Talking from the picture to your head Follow the call of a puppet Led into a black room painted red Where life is painless, brainless You don't think of broken remains Of what had to be taken for strong Slowly it's been fading away Look at the picture Point at the child there on the floor Realize that it's a looking glass |
