Dead Again

Solo: wead

Hecate... darkness and terror of the night
Hecate... oh, the crossroads are thine
You are diana, you are the hunter of souls
The dogs are howling, we dogs know when you approach

Let us ride with a beast tonight
Let us ride to the crossroads
Let us ride with a beast tonight
Let us ride in the dead of night...

To the crossroads... to the crossroads...
We ride to the crossroads, in search of your soul
We ride to the crossroads, in search of your soul...

I heard it... in my sleep last night
I heard it... in your sleep last night
Now i can hear it again, outside the night is sad
I know it's not the wind, outside the night is black

Under our window is the banshee
Wailing its haunted tune
Under out window is the banshee
Waitling its haunted tune too soon

I know that, i must tell you a lie
I know that, it could be you and not i
Before the sun is rising, the banshee cannot stay
Before the night is dying, a life will slip away

Under our window is the banshee
Wailing its haunted tune
Under out window is the banshee
Waitling its haunted tune too soon

I must light a fire, to chase away the night
Let us hold each other tight
The cats are gone, i guess... they know
Oh... they know what's gonna come

Solo: wead

The wailing is so much louder, i need to hold you tight
I can feel you getting colder, is it time for you or i?

Solo: shermann-wead

Under our window is the banshee
Wailing its haunted tune
Under out window is the banshee
Waitling its haunted tune too soon

Let it be me

Anna... was praying to a god
She had betrayed, so they said
Some folk had seen her flying on a broom
All hallows eve, under the moon

The inquisitor had left her behind
Gone for a bite, food on his mind
The sun was slowly trying to hide
Behind a town so full of pride
A sight anna would never see again

Torture in the name of christ, confess, oh you witch
Torture in the name of christ, you witch you... confess

Solo: shermann

Sitting naked on the wooden horse
Weights to her legs, what a holy cross>
Her bloody hands tied to her back
Her golden hair burned to black

Thumbscrews they had used
To crush each tip of her fingers to a pulp
In the torture chamber, she couldn't feel much more
Of anything... anymore

Torture in the name of christ, confess, oh you witch
Torture in the name of christ, you witch you... confess

Satan's mark... had slipped away
They already searched her body twice today
And it was all in vain

Oh anna here they come again
Off the horse, strapado for a friend
Up she goes, higher and higher
Anna's crying, screaming: "liars"

Solo: shermann-wead

Confess, confess witch
Confess, before you die

"yes, yes, i am a witch, may satan take you all"

Solo: wead

They dropped her from the ceiling
To a foot above the floor
Her ams and legs disjointed
Screams of pain... then finally no... more

On this cold and windy sunday
I'm sitting here alone... it's autumn
I'm looking at a yellow picture
You have been gone forever

Oh it's so very hard, growing old on your own, alone
I'm trying to remember... the days...
When we were young

Since forever, i still remember your ways
Since forever, i still remember

I have been reading your letter, over and over again
I can't believe you're gonna be here today
I can't believe... this is sunday

How nice of you to come, it's been so way too long
Let me get you another glass of wine
To keep our tingues in time

Solo: wead

Since forever, i still remember your ways
Since forever, i still remember

So many things have never been told
And now the both of us are way too old

Solo: shermann

Since forever, i still remember your ways
Since forever, i still remember

Like the light of the sun
You used to brightened my day
But darkness ha taken your place
And i can no longer keep it away

Since forever, i still remember your ways
Since forever, i still remember

I ask you for one last time
No there won't be any wine
Just one more time
So you can put flowers on my grave
And then leave again... since forever

Why do i keep on doing this? it's not for me anymore
I'm doing this more for you than i
And on that lonely road to nowhere
I lost myself to something else

I don't know where i'm going or where i've been
It's so hard to remember all the things i am, am i?
It feels like the end is near, catching up with me
Catch me if you can, cause i'm going down into the ground

How much longer can i keep going on?
I can feel my lost ones coming down
Sooner than later, i'll see you all again
I feel my purpose here slipping away
I see the sun, but it's raining

I hope i'm on my way to better things
And if i'm not, it doesn't really matter
Cause i am doing this more for you than i am me
I can no longer pretend, that my life is worth living
I... i would rather die, be dead again

Hold on
Now here it comes, death for one, a lonely son
Up then down, i'm spinning around
My sould is so confused again
Am i floating towards the sun?
Hold on, am i dead on?

Solo: shermann

Through a tunnel of black, why?
Why do i feel so sad?

I've been waiting for the end of act 9 to come
The curtain must fall, the end of a song

Solo: wead

But the song goes on and on
The light is so very strong
I'm drifting along, i have no will

I'm drifting still
In a room without walls... i feel the chill
No one is here to pick me up
Nothingess... what a mess... oh
Is anybody there?

Is anybody there? i'm talking to you, do you hear me?
If i could only see through the wall of nothingness
The wall of black
They gave me number 9, this is not like the last time
Number 9
This time i am really losing my mind

I hear an orchestra... i see an orchestra
I greet an orchestra... i meet an orchestra
I'm in an orchestra... i am an orchestra
I kill this orchestra... i kill me? no
No don't stop, oh please don't stop

Hey stay here, what's going on?... hey wait for me

Solo: shermann-wead

I'm running but i can't keep up
Then i realize my feet are gone
This is such a weird weird song
The orchestra is now a door
One is one and two is four, i can see three more
Seven doors, seven doors
I must choose one before they're gone

But i cannot move, oh they are drifting away now
But i cannot move, oh they are drifting away now
I've got to reach that door, the number 6
I've got to reach that door, the number 6
The number 6-6, the number 6-6-6
The number 6-6-6
The number 6-6-6, that's my door
Wuauuu... look at all the colours
There goes an orchestra, no more doors
Close the window, here they come
I hear another end of this song
But again the song goes on

Dead again, i know cause i've been here before
I'm dead agin, if i could only reach that door
The number 6-6-6, the number 6-6-6

I'm beginning to miss you again
Why can't i just get you out of my mind...
I must forget

Dead again, i know cause i've been here before
I'm dead again, if i could only reach that door
Through a purple mist the light is fading
I guess i'll have to stay dead
A little longer this time

Dead again...
