Visions
Album - 23 april 1997 - Debaser id 13521

Again I see you standing there watching me
your gaze, those eyes are tantalising openly
inviting me to get close to you
can't help myself
there's fascination in the air.

I try to fight this strong sensation
but there's no chance to escape
from this temptation.
Feels like I've known you before,
repeating phrases,
but I yearn for something more.

I know
I can't stay by your side
forever,
but I know
I won't forget your beauty,
my Black Diamond.

(instrumental)

I know
I can't stay by your side
forever,
but I know
I won't forget your beauty,
my Black Diamond.
(2x)

I hear footsteps closing in
I recognize them from my early days.
The times are different the image remains the same
repeating back flashes remembering the name

Approaching visions of things
I can't recall, a familiar smile awakes the pain

Unkept promises, the night awaits, the act of confidence
The kiss of Judas I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas hold me once again

In your privage chamber, you're all alone.
The well earned silver pieces falling to the floor
The flame of the candle casting movement to the wall
Your eyes filled with guilt keeps staring at the door

Approaching visions of things I can't recall
A familiar smile awakes the pain

Unkept promises, the night awaits, the act of confidence
The kiss of Judas I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas hold me once again (3x)

Far in the core of the earth, first it was given birth.
We heard the call the message was so clear.
The tracks were laid for the future to come.

Sons and daughters of the Rising Sun, the armies in Europe here we come.
We run like the wind we play from the heart, now we are here together we sing.

Faster than light, higher than the sky, tonight we're together again.
Never give up and give in, stronger than steel we're the legions of the twilight.

We survived the hard times, never accepted the lies, you run like the wind you sing from the heart.
Now that we're here together we'll sing.

Faster than light, higher than the sky, tonight we're together again.
Never give up and give in, stronger than steel we're the legions of the twilight.

When we have to go back home again, we'll keep the mem'ries we gained inside our hearts.

Faster than light, higher than the sky, tonight we're together again.
Never give up and give in, stronger than steel we're the legions of the twilight.

Raise your hands for us!

Late at night I find myself again
Wondering and watching TV
I can't believe what is on the screen
Something that I wouldn't dare to see

Many rare species will perish soon
And we will be short on food
Why do we have to be so selfish
We've got to change our attitude

I know that I am not
The only one that's worried
Why don't we all wake up, and realize?

Like the birds in the sky
We're flying so high
Without making any kind of sacrifice
We've got so little time to undo this crime
Or we'll lose our paradise

It seems to me that there's no sense at all
Nobody cares it's always the same
Mother nature's crying out in pain
we are the one's to blame

I wake up in the morning
So far away from home,
Trying to make it through the day.
Many miles are between us,
I'm sending my love from this payphone.

Through the storms we've wandered,
Many mountains we have climbed,
But all the bad times are behind.
The road is free - I'm coming home.

Without you I am like a ship without it's sails,
Calling the wind to save me.
I'd climb the highest mountain,
I'd cross the seven seas
Just to see your smile again.
All the trust that was built along
The years is coming back to stay I know.
Just look ahead the road is free - I'm coming home.

With every step I'm closer to home,
When I'm back you won't be alone.
Soon I'll see the familiar door before my eyes and you

I have seen the future of mankind
The wisdom of my prophecies you'll find

Follow the truth and be careful
Are we the last?

Hundred years has passed what have we done
Inconceivable damage under the sun

I think it's too late to change the man
We are the last

The world keeps turning while
People yearn for more
Mother nature is crying for change
The time will come when we
All must pay for what we have done
Are you prepared for that?

As we are reaching the end
Of the century there's
Message we can send

Be strong and bold and never
Lose your mind cause we are the last

The world keeps turning while
People yearn for more
Mother nature is crying for change
The time will come when we
All must pay for what we have done
Are you prepared for that?

Signs of the end I see
Let them hear my voice
In every corner of the world Take heed of the warnings that I give

I have seen the Southern Cross forming in the sky

"There shall be heard in the air the noise of weapons
and in the same year the divines shall be enemies.
They shall unjustly put down the holy laws and by thunder and war,
true believers shall die"
- Nostradamus: Century I V: 43-

"For forty years the rainbow shall not appear
For forty years it shall be seen every day
The parched earth shall wax drier every day
And a great flood when it shall appear"
- Nostradamus: Century I: 17

After us the road goes on forever
Many changes lie along the path
That's the price we pay for our selfishness
We are headed for the end

"From the skies shall come the powerful kind
Before and after the Mars reigns at will
Not far from the great age of Millenium
Buried ones shall come out of their graves"
- Nostradamus: Century X: 72, 74

When the comet tears out the sky
You and I must die

After all this the time will
Come for the chosen ones
To rise from their graves to be free again

The beast is gone forever
There's no more pain
Instead so many things for us to attain
The sun is shining brightly after the rain
The land is green and full of life again

The sorrows wiped away now
It's time to smile
And learn from the past
Together we will try

Twenty years of reign of the
Moon having past
Seven thousand years another
Shall hold his monarchy
When the sun shall resume his days past
Then is fulfilled and ends my prophecy
- Nostradamus: Century I: 48
