11. Distant Memories (5:51)
Now storm come closer
Can feel you're getting near
Lust stay invisible 'til its over
[Chorus:]
But still they don't know
They're just caught in distant memories
Then these fools will fade away
They may not fear the fall
They won't be anymore
I hear their silent singing
We don't fear anymore
We don't fear him
Now don't come closer
Stand still
Don't interfere
Don't move or things go wrong
We're trapped in twilight
Trapped in the mind of a sacrificial king
And the sun won't shine here anymore
I curse the crow
Dear old friend
And when the time is right for changes
We will salute you
And a new age may begin
[Chorus]
When all the magic is gone
No need to carry it along
Whatever the cost
It will not be redeemed
And whatever may come
It will not bring, relief
In the mirror
They may fail to see
What is real behind
Them it ends
And there is no return
They will go down
They all will have to drown
Out of the dark
Into the grey
These fools will fade away
No matter what
I've come to say
These fools will fade away
A storm comes closer
Can feel you're getting near?
Just stay invisible, you're no savior
[Chorus]
I know they reach out for someone
Reach out for the great unknown
[Chorus]
They've thought
It is time for changes
We will salute you
Moved on to the promised land
We will salute you
Now let it begin
They've found a new god
Can feel you're getting near
Lust stay invisible 'til its over
[Chorus:]
But still they don't know
They're just caught in distant memories
Then these fools will fade away
They may not fear the fall
They won't be anymore
I hear their silent singing
We don't fear anymore
We don't fear him
Now don't come closer
Stand still
Don't interfere
Don't move or things go wrong
We're trapped in twilight
Trapped in the mind of a sacrificial king
And the sun won't shine here anymore
I curse the crow
Dear old friend
And when the time is right for changes
We will salute you
And a new age may begin
[Chorus]
When all the magic is gone
No need to carry it along
Whatever the cost
It will not be redeemed
And whatever may come
It will not bring, relief
In the mirror
They may fail to see
What is real behind
Them it ends
And there is no return
They will go down
They all will have to drown
Out of the dark
Into the grey
These fools will fade away
No matter what
I've come to say
These fools will fade away
A storm comes closer
Can feel you're getting near?
Just stay invisible, you're no savior
[Chorus]
I know they reach out for someone
Reach out for the great unknown
[Chorus]
They've thought
It is time for changes
We will salute you
Moved on to the promised land
We will salute you
Now let it begin
They've found a new god
