Charon's Call | Heavy Metal from Schwäbisch Hall since 2002

Charon's Call

Biografie

Gegründet wurde Charon’s Call Ende 2002 von Markus, Dom und Fredi. Was anfänglich als Versuch geplant war, zusammen Musik zu machen, entwickelte sich in kürzester Zeit zu einem erfolgversprechenden Konzept.

Mehrere Personalwechsel jedoch bremsten die weitere Entwicklung und so konnte die Band erst nach dem Eintritt von Daniel (Mitte 2003) die ersten richtigen Schritte nach vorne wagen. Es wurden fleißig Songs geschrieben und so konnte man auch die ersten Auftritte absolvieren. Jedoch war die Konstellation noch nicht so wie man sie sich vorgestellt hatte. Es fehlte ein Sänger um Charon’s Call den letzten Feinschliff zu verleihen. Nach mehrmonatiger intensiver Suche wurde im September 2004 Daniel "Willy" Wieland als letztes Mitglied in die Band aufgenommen.

Die Band war nun in der Lage sich variabler in der Musik und in der Live-Performance zu gestalten. Mehrere regionale und einige überregionale Auftritte gaben ausschließlich gute Kritiken durch das Publikum. Dadurch kann Charon’s Call heute auf ein gutes Potential an Live-Erfahrung zurückgreifen.

Seit Gründung hat man versucht die Musik von Charon’s Call eigenständig zu gestalten. Unterstützt wird die Eigenständigkeit durch die jeweils unterschiedlichen Musikgeschmäcker und den daraus resultierenden Einfluss auf die fünf Mitglieder. Die Songs der Band haben ihre Wurzeln im traditionellen Heavy Metal. Sie gestalten sich hart und direkt aber doch emotional und ansprechend. Charon’s Call verbindet verschiedenste Stilelemente (darunter u.a. aggressiver Clean-Gesang unterstützt von Growl-Parts, vereinzelt Crunchelemente aber auch klassisches Klavier und sphärische Akkustikparts) um jedem einzelnen Song seinen eigenen Ausdruck zu verleihen. Es ist für alle Bandmitglieder wichtig, dass jeder Song Aussagekraft besitzt. Jeder Text von Charon’s Call hat einen sozialkritischen Hintergrund und die mit ihm verbundene Musik soll diesem die richtige Klangfarbe und Atmosphäre verleihen. Von Düster und Aggressiv bis Melancholisch und Emotional.

Im Frühjahr 2005 war man nun in der Lage die erste EP selbst zu produzieren. Martin Winkler (Autumn’s Grief, Ex-Stormwitch) hatte man als Regisseur für die Aufnahmen begeistern können und so hat sich Charon’s Call in die Heavy Martl Projektstudios zurückgezogen. Das Ergebnis waren vier Songs die versuchen die Songvielfalt der Band wiederzugeben und einen kleinen Einblick in das bisherige Schaffen der fünf Bandmitglieder zu ermöglichen. „The EP“ sollte zum einen für die bisherigen Fans ein kleines Dankeschön darstellen aber auch Charon’s Call verhelfen weitere Gigs (regional wie überregional) an Land zu ziehen und somit den Bekanntheitsstatus zu erhöhen.

2007 folgte mit "Eternal Sin" das erste Album, welches in Heilbronner Studios aufgenommen wurde. 2009 begab sich die Band nach Slowenien um mit "Within" eine neue EP einzuspielen.

In der Folgezeit gab es diverse Besetzungswechsel mit Felix (statt Dani) an der Gitarre und Martin (statt Fredi) am Schlagzeug. Seit Mitte 2011 ist es ruhig um die Band geworden, welche auf zahlreiche Konzerte unter anderem auf Bühnen mit Ross the Boss, Sodom, Pain und vielen weiteren Bands zurück blicken kann.

Brothers in mind

Long haired and mad

Black clothed and bad

You will never observe that

Your judgement is false

Your stupid in mind

Stupid and blind

Shame for our kind

 

I'm a human like you

But I say what I think

I don't go with the flow

That's my way of life

But therefore I am

A scapegoat for you

 

bridge

Everyone is unique born

But most will die

As a double of a lie

 

ref

This is a song

For my brothers in mind

Follow your path

And don't be so blind

This is a song

For my brothers and sisters in mind

 

Someone is killed

And guilty I am

And the music I love

Not the teachers and dads

Not the mothers and friends

But someone like me

I'm going my way

Feared and repressed

Disdained and ignored

Your target for hate

Oh why can't you see

How can you be so blind

 

bridge

ref

 

This is a song

For my brothers in mind

And a fuck you for all

For all who are blind


Pray for mercy

You dream of a hero

Or a hero to be

Never surrender

                                                             Never will flee

Not like the rest

With friends side by side

Givin' your best

Full of ideals and pride

 

But reality prevails

Your dreams have to die

Your hero he fails

And you've unlearned to cry

You work and you bait

Day after day

There's no time to rest

You're loosing your way

 

bridge

But once in your lifetime

When youth has gone by

You remind of your deeds

And you start to sigh

 

ref

As you were loveless or involved in crime

No chance to live your life a second time

Your time has run out you cannot believe

And you pray for a mercy you will not receive

 

Now you're a liar

Like the ones you disdain

Betraying your own ideals

For the money you gain

You spit on old friends

Who are not like you are

And you don't ask yourself

How it could get so far

 

When you grow older

You remember your dreams

And you wish you where bolder

But it's to late so it seems

One day like another

The sameness it rules

No time for your brother

Society of fools

 

bridge

ref

 

The present holds you in hand

You're a puppet until the end

Pray for mercy in vain

Die in rancour and pain


Pride

She's like the sunrise

She's like the dawn

I will have to pay the price

for trust and love

For the joy of one night

She breaks my heart

My strength and will to live

She tears apart

 

My life lies in ruins

All I built up is lost

The world seems to change

Into my personal hell

The light in my life

Is fading away

The hours pass by

And in pain I decay

 

bridge

I look in her eyes and I realize

She's a coward she's a liar a bloody liar

She's a coward she's a liar a bloody liar

 

ref

Beyond the grave there will be

No more lies and agony

Beyond the grave all is in vain

No more tears no more pain

But I'm alive and want to stay

None of them takes me away

Believe in me I know that's right

None of them can take my pride

 

He's of the good guys

He's like a brother

I will have to realize

He's dastard and lying

He has nothing to give

His masquerade falls

He only can take

His friendship is false

 

My ideals seem senseless

My faith has been wrong

And I’m asking myself

Where is the time I belong

But break down and cry

Cause of a liar

The pride in my heart

Enlightens a fire

 

bridge

I look in his eyes and I realize

He's a coward he's a liar a bloody liar

He's a coward he's a liar a bloody liar

 

ref


Mankind's Fall

Heaven is burning

The devil must fall

So is it written

But what if that's wrong

I'm searching for justice

But where will I find

Treason and death

Getting crazy or blind

 

bridge

Satan or god

Genius or mad

The one who reigns

He must be bad

 

ref

The sky is darkend nature dies

I feel the tears within my eyes

Justice seems to be forsaken

The devil smiles your life is taken

The dying angels hear their calls

Heaven's burning mankind falls

 

Species of madness

Big mistake of nature

Or even the sons

Of an unholy god

Killers of themselves

Killing for lust

They will be ashes

They will be dust

 

bridge

ref


Holy War

Temple knights

Full of anger and hate

Waiste the land

Prepare the last crusade

They wage the war

With fire and sword

They burn and they rape

Wrest the word of their god

 

Raging knights

Hear their battlecry

Into the fight

The heathen must die

(With the) sign of the cross

In the name of the crown

For their messiah

Cut the heathen down

 

ref

All the sinners and the saints

In this holy war

Is it hatred or faith

What they are dying for

 

Holy knights

With blood on the blade

Devils in white

In just another crusade

A holy war

The slaughter begins

In the fire they burn

To shelter their sins

 

Sacred knights

Thirsting for blood

Fight and die

For the glory of god

Priests of war

Die like flies in the flame

They're waisting their lives

For an unholy aim

 

ref

 

As the wind blows the fog away

The vultures (are) dining well today

The muslim warriors standing tall

They prevailed they did not fall

But they cannot feel delight

To many of their brothers died

Their blood is running down in streams

Senseless slaughter for truthless dreams

 

ref


Sun over Eden

I look to the horizon over dying trees

We're poisoned by water of blackened seas

We pray for salvation and I'm sure we'll find

But not in this world the greed made us blind

Our home world is dying oh when will we learn

Now we are leaving never to return

 

The spaceships are ready to start

I am a man with a broken heart

Once I had to leave the place of my birth

I didn't believe but it can always be worse

Now it's the second time that I must divide

Sometimes I think I should have died

 

ref

See the sun over Eden

A fading red ball

And inhuman creatures

Scream for vengeance as they fall

 

A few years later we will reach

Of what our politicians preach

A new world like a paradise

And once again our greed will rise

We will exploit what we see

Until we must choose die or flee

 

ref


Circle of Wizards

Deep in the wood

Between a hill and a river

Hidden by oaks and hundreds of rocks

There lies a secret lost

In the mist of the past

 

A place in the forest

Surrounded by one and twelve stones

A circle where wizards once casted their spells

Called demons and let spirits rise

 

ref

Circle of wizards

Holy runes carved in stone

Circle of wizards

Where the light of wisdom shone

Circle of wizards

Now just signs of an ancient crime

Circle of wizards

Stained with blood and lost in time

 

But now all the wizards are gone

The healers and priests

The christians hunted them down

They died for their right to believe

 

ref

 

In pact with the devil

The wizards where called

Their deeds once famous and loved

Were now punished by death through the flame

 

ref

 

The shining light of magic has left our world

No wizard is casting his spells

The killers of the past are the rulers of our lifes

Just like a spider in its net out of corruption and lies

They caught us all


We will rise

Can you see the tiger in it's cage made of steel

His eyes are dead now the glance of the wild is gone

Only dreams of freedom are left in his mind

His soul is bound his heart is broken

 

Now ask yourself have you ever felt

That there must be more than your little life

Didn't we imprison ourselves in a golden cage

Open your eyes man the tiger is you

 

bridge

Try to inflame a spark

Break the chains

Around your heart

To enlighten the dark and...

 

ref

Rise

For your rights

Fight

For freedom in mind

Stand

And keep your pride

Rise

We will rise

 

A cage is a cage golden or not

Outer constraints restricting your mind

Social patterns and rules seal the gates in your head

And hold you off  from realising yourself

 

bridge

ref

 

Look behind the truth they're telling you

And you will see that there is more

Run like the tiger let the dream come true

And you will be free in mind

 

bridge

On the Run

I travel through the wasted land

Wrapped in black gun in hand

Bounty hunters in my neck

And I know there's no turning back

 

The sound of shotguns in the night

They are here I have to fight

I want be free I wealt my gun

And once again I'm on the run

 

ref

I will come I will fight I am on the run

I will live I will die under the desert sun

I will kill I will burn I am catching your soul

I will rise I will fall I am loosing control

 

A bullet breaks into my neck

The world around me's getting black

My weapon falls out of my hand

My days seem over I found my end

 

The lust for life runs in my vains

My chest seems tied with iron chains

The light around me blinds my eyes

But I know that I will rise

 

ref

 

Just like the phoenix out of the fire

I will return from the edge of the night

To fight for my freedom and break the chains

To rest in peace and free my soul

 

ref


Eternal Sin

So hear the word of your messiah

Take everything you may desire

But don't take this apple little Eve

When you take it you must leave

 

You heard his will

I can't belive that you

Do not fullfill

Or is there still live

Within your mind

Take this one and

Wisdom you'll find

Wisdom you'll find

 

What's up to you my human child

Where are you now where do you hide

Is this cognition in your eyes

Oh no the snake the devil in disguise

 

ref

I am guilty by the sin of using my mind

No regret never look behind

I am guilty if it's a crime to open my eyes

Oh yes I 'm sick of all your lies

 

Out of my eyes you untrue thieve

Who brought upon me real grief

You'll be damned to leave from here

To scrape a living full of fear

 

This guardian angel will defend

The garden to the very end

You know this sentence is divine

The burning sword shall be a sign

 

ref


Demons of the past

You saunter through the alleys of your town

You're lost in thought as the sun goes down

The shadows grow the light gets weak

Where's that hidaway you seek

The memories burn in your brain

The growing fear drives you insane

Your personal curse has changed your mind

The irrational dread it makes you blind

 

ref

You curse that old man high above

Who dares to preach of righteous love

But you know your pain will last

Due to the demons of the past

 

Everytime you try to trust

All your hopes decay to dust

The voice up there within your mind

Says 'stop recall what lies behind'

With you're feelings sealed by heavy gates

You know that loneliness awaits

You try to fight but you will fail

There's no hope left that you'll prevail

 

You never found your lucky stars

Your past live caused many scars

Not physical but not less plain

Your lust for life has changed to pain

The labyrinth of life will be

Where you face your destiny

If you don't find your way back

Then your soul is lost in black

 

ref


Heaven denies

Late in the evening on my way back home

I saw a young girl leaning ‘gainst a wall

Unaware of the rain falling down on her

She seemed so desperate and lost

Somehow I knew what she was waiting for

Her pained look said more than all words could do

 

Once again I see an angel that cries

He can't understand why heaven denies

All the years he tried and tried

But again and again heaven denied

 

Another day on the old cemetery

I met an old man crying at a grave

His back was bowed with age but

I know his will broke not until that time

He lost everything he ever had in life

I still hear that voice screaming for his wife

 

Once again I see an angel that cries

He can't understand why heaven denies

All the years he tried and tried

But again and again heaven denied

 

Yesterday in the pub right down the street

I spoke with a man sitting at the bar

cause of a girl he lost his best friend

all their plans and dreams where gone

 

Once again I see an angel that cries

He can't understand why heaven denies

All the years he tried and tried

But again and again heaven denied

 

At heaven`s door with tears in my eyes

And one more time heaven denies

All the years I tried and tried

But again and again heaven denied


What I would die for

I know all creatures fear their end

But our own fate lies in our hand

It's a primal instinct to survive

Sometimes it's your choice to end your life

 

But for which reason would I die

Without hesitation without to cry?

It's hard to imagine and harder to do

What would I die for and for what would you?

 

Ref

And I swear – I’d die for

So many things

For reasons you don’t understand

And I’ll be – you’ll see it

The one who keeps

The flame alive and burning high

 

If a real friend could die in the flame

Would I stake my life in a deadly game?

If my family's threatend by an unknown guy

Would I run or stay and maybe die?

 

If I would hold another life in hand

How would I deceide before the end?

So many questions and only one reply

Yes by my honor I would choose to die

 

Ref


The Witch

In the dawn they teared her on the street

To the place where they built the pyre

Without a trial she was sentenced

To die in the smoke and in the fire

 

With black magic she lured a dozen men

And involved them in her errant game

For this terrible crime she had to die

The men confessed their sins in shame

 

Oh in the fire she's about to die

The crowd is screaming as the flames are burning high

Their foul justice has to be fullfilled

And in gods name another innocent is killed

 

Screams in the wood unveiled an angry crowd

Hate in their hearts and torches in hand

So they flounced on the clearing

To the hut of the witch to bring her an end

 

With the powers of evil

She brought a man back to live

Against the will of the creator

A good reason for this drive

 

Oh in the fire she's about to die

The crowd is screaming as the flames are burning high

Their foul justice has to be fullfilled

And in gods name another innocent is killed

 

Oh in the darkness of an empty street

The man's eyes are filled with nerverending greed

A bag of gold is given in his hand

Another bloody coin for every flaming end


Like a Shadow in the Night

Faceless humans everywhere

Just actors in your own fairytale

All their hopes and wishes

All their fears to die or fail

Are nothing but a minor matter

Their living and dying their laughing and crying

Is nothing you should care about

They're just a nameless lifeless crowd

 

Just like a shadow in the night

You’ve never seen the new days light

With closed eyes you’re gone astray

(Your) humanity’s the price to pay

 

Look in the mirror and tell what you see

Your mind is burnt out

Your soul turned to stone

A breathing breast a beating heart

But your feelings have been torn apart

Your going and staying and all what you're saying

Is nothing that will care again

You're just a nameless lifeless man

 

Just like a shadow in the night

You’ve never seen the new days light

With closed eyes you’re gone astray

(Your) humanity’s the price to pay


Falling Down

They call it democracy

They call it right to elect

They want us to believe

To believe their goddamn lies

 

They deceive a nation

For the good of a few

Slaves to their own greed

They'll never be free

 

So tell me can't you see

That this land is falling

Into corruption

Elected to betray

We are falling down

 

Nothing is holy

Nothing is sacred

Only the money your lord

Reigns your mind

 

With tied wings

We're falling down

We are like a king

Without a crown

 

But we don't have to

Take another lie

We don't have to be

Slaves until we die

 

So tell me can't you see

That this land is falling

Into corruption

Elected to betray

We are falling down

 

Nothing is holy

Nothing is sacred

Only the money your lord

Reigns your mind


Angels of Rage

You're the greatest liars in these times

Oh wake up you fools you gotta pay for your crimes

The end of your lifes is coming near

And within your eyes there's only your fear

 

Social systems you’re kicked with your feet

Needy people ignored and maltread

Retaliation will come over you

Disgrace and scorn you know this too

 

We wanna see you run

But your life will be gone

We wanna hear you cry

And you cannot denie

 

Angels of Rage

 

Your life won’t be the same anymore

So what you are fighting nowadays for

Lies and affairs are your crumbling foundation

And we are the hammers of the new creation

 

Social systems you’re kicked with your feet

Needy people ignored and maltread

Retaliation will come over you

Disgrace and scorn you know this too

 

I wanna make you fall

Only due to my call

I wanna bring you pain

All you're hope is in vain

 

Angels of Rage


Why

When the night falls

And the sky is black

With no clouds at all

I’m lying back

On such a night

I look to the sky

Its timeless beauty

Makes me asking ‘why’

 

Our childish quarrels

Problems and wars

Seem so senseless for me

Under the stars

I’m feeling so small

So helpless and weak

I hope I will find

The answers I seek

 

I look to the stars

In the sky and I feel

A burning desire to

See them for real

Open your mind and

Your heart and you’ll see

There’s a burning desire

To come – come with me

 

Why are we here

What is the sense

Where will we go

When will it end

 

For hours I stay

I relish the freedom in mind

All earthly sorrows

And pain left behind

 

I look to the stars

In the sky and I feel

A burning desire to

See them for real

Open your mind and

Your heart and you’ll see

There’s a burning desire

To come - come with me

 

Why are we here

What is the sense

Where will we go

When will it end


Price to Pay

Here I am

At a crossroad again

What to choose?

Two different ways to pain

 

I'm between the devil

And the deep blue sea

There's no right decision

And things can't go well for me

 

Whatever you've done

Whatever you said

In the end

No one will care

It may be sad

But it's a fact

You have to pay

And no one will care

 

You'll have to pay

Forever

Needless to say

The night relieves the day

Relieves the day

In any case

You'll have to pay

You cannot run away

 

After all

I am the one to blame

No one cares that

I didn't choose to play this game

 

Drowning in sadness

I have to decide then

Crying in silence

I reached the dead end again

 

Whatever you've done

Whatever you said

In the end

No one will care

It may be sad

But it's a fact

You have to pay

And no one will care

 

You'll have to pay

Forever

Needless to say

The night relieves the day

Relieves the day

In any case

You'll have to pay

You cannot run away

 

I am never asking why

I have given up

It's like the night relieves the day

It's something you can't stop


Fire and Ice

Am I sacred or is it a curse

Every time I try it’s getting worse

Feeling so happy then burning in hell

The kind of game you're playing so well

 

I’m bedded on roses and backstabbed with a knife

You've always been the mystery of my life

Every time my arms hold you tight

I’m feeling myself like I’m preparing to fight

 

We are like

Fire and Ice

It's hard to believe

It fills me with grief

We are like

Fire and Ice

You take me to hell

Or to heaven as well

 

Are you mad or is it me

Who is the one too blind to see

You’re my saviour you’re my end

You’re my wound that cannot mend

 

My confused feelings made me blind

Or why can’t I cut the ties that bind

Can’t shut the door and leave you outside

I cannot run I cannot hide

 

We are like

Fire and Ice

It's hard to believe

It fills me with grief

We are like

Fire and Ice

You take me to hell

Or to heaven as well


On My Knees

Down in the dirt again

Back where it all began

I’m shaken to the core

No I can’t take this anymore

 

Down in the dirt again

Back where it all began

Not knowing anymore

What I’ve been fighting for

 

Here I am

Drowning

Here I kneel

Bleeding

I can’t take this

No no never

With my face down in the ashes

Of what I thought it’ll last forever

 

At the end of the line

I still refuse to die

Down on my knees

But with my head held high

It’s the warrior within

Who always gets me through

You’ll never see me fall

You’ll never hear me pleading you

 

Down on my knees I fall

Am I done once and for all?

I know it’s carved in stone

In the end I die alone

 

But somewhere deep inside

I have the strength to fight

I know it’s carved in stone

In the end I stand alone

 

Here I am

Drowning

Here I kneel

Bleeding

I can’t take this

No no never

With another scar upon my soul

Another wound bleeding forever

 

At the end of the line

I still refuse to die

Down on my knees

But with my head held high

It’s the warrior within

Who always gets me through

You’ll never see me fall

You’ll never hear me pleading you

 

Here I am

Here I stand

Stronger

Than before

You can’t break me

No no never

Despite all scars upon my soul

And all the wounds bleeding forever


Bitter Man's Diary

I wake up in the early morning

No it’s still in the middle of the night

What was it that woke me up

What can I do to make it stop

 

I can hear the sound of a sinful game
I can feel the lust for a girl I never ever found
You groan she screams
I only see my broken dreams

You dare to break some common rules

Where ever I look I’m surrounded by fools

How can you disturb an old man’s sleep

Shut up you oh so depraved creep

 

How can you dare to have
A better life than me
Back in time we had to work
And were not really free
You soon should learn that the world
Consists of more than you
Or I'll catch up on all the things
Your mother missed to do

I can hear the sound
Of a children's game
I can feel the pain
Of a life you never had to live
You laugh you scream
You're young enough to dream

You dare to break some common rules

Where ever I look I’m surrounded by fools

How can you disturb an old man’s rest

Shut up you oh so wayward pest

 

How can you dare to have
A better life than me
Back in time we had to work
And were not really free
You soon should learn that the world
Consists of more than you
Or I'll catch up on all the things
Your mother missed to do

 

Some day I’ll show the ropes to you

You’ll see what an angry man can do

And this will be my legacy

Written in my diary

Bitter man’s diary


Babylon

We're still where we started

Knee-deep in blood

We're taken up with slaughter

And referring to god

Something major went wrong

We're building a new Babylon

 

Made of madness and faith

It will soon be done

All the sinners and the saints

Rebuilding Babylon

 

We should have learned

After ten thousand years

After billions of victims

and oceans of tears

But we're still going on

Building a new Babylon

 

Made of madness and faith

It will soon be done

All the sinners and the saints

Rebuilding Babylon

 

We are the pride of creation

No one can deny

We are god's final masterpiece

The crown of evolution

 

Made of madness and faith

It will soon be done

All the sinners and the saints

Rebuilding Babylon


Your flesh will be mine

So come on in oh devout lamb of mine

Be welcome in these holy walls

Take off your coat and your bible out

I’ll tell you everything about

 

You’ve always been the teacher’s pet

So much keener than the rest

With bright eyes you’re watching me

I wish to touch you, wish to BE

 

I can’t stand this brutish lust

That tears all self build walls to dust

I’m feeling hot I’m feeling cold

And you’re just twelve – twelve years old

 

I am the one doomed to fall

I can't resist Satan's call

Oath and bond no longer count

The beast within hence unbound

My soul may burn till the end of time

Here and now your flesh will be mine

 

Your bared thighs lead my thoughts astray

I lift you up towards my bed

My hand slowly moves beneath your skirt

I kick my faith deep in the dirt

 

Your body makes my mind go mad

My soul is lost my heart turned black

Once again the devil wins

And once again my hell begins

 

Lord why do you abandon me

I’m your servant can’t you see

Or is it you who is too weak

You’re not the master that I seek

 

I am the one doomed to fall

I can't resist Satan's call

Oath and bond no longer count

The beast within hence unbound

My soul may burn till the end of time

Here and now your flesh will be mine

 

Your mother’s here and just in time

So listen now sweet lamb of mine

Now and forever this will be

A secret between you and me

 

I am the one doomed to fall

I can't resist Satan's call

Oath and bond no longer count

The beast within hence unbound

My soul may burn till the end of time

Here and now your flesh will be mine


Of war and pain

Two men walking down the street of life

They were friends they were brothers

Got the same thoughts got the same sight

Felt the same feelings the same fire inside

 

Child in ruins playing their game

Don’t know the times before

Only know their religion know their god

Know the rituals they have got

 

But now look at the ruins the people in fear

Look at the misery this two men brought to here

 

Why can’t you see all the pain and the fear beside you

Why don’t you rise and help your brothers

Oh can’t you feel with your heart or is it stoned now

Why can’t you stop this war and pain

 

These two men are heaven and hell

Known by mankind very well

The religion and greed of humans this time

Teared them apart pushed them in crime

 

But now look at the ruins the people in fear

Look at the misery this two men brought to here

 

Why can’t you see all the pain and the fear beside you

Why don’t you rise and help your brothers

Oh can’t you feel with your heart or is it stoned now

Why can’t you stop this war and pain

 

They brought them darkness they brought them fear

Showed them misery showed them tears

Of poorness and hunger pain and fear

But are the two men the problem here

 

But now look at the ruins the people in fear

Look at the misery this two men brought to here

 

Why can’t you see all the pain and the fear beside you

Why don’t you rise and help your brothers

Oh can’t you feel with your heart or is it stoned now

Why can’t you stop this war and pain


Cold rain

Everytime I’m searching for something new

But I can’t find it

I know the problem it is me

So can you help me that I can be free

 

When I look back I see the shadows of the past

Happy one changes to a sad sad no one

Pushed in a dead end corner under society’s will

All mister and misses know it started me to kill

 

Everytime I’m digging for something new

And I will find it

Cause now I know the problem wasn’t me

Because it was me who had the dream of being free

 

Noone knows where it goes

But it is relevant

Pictures growing kids will know

That nothing is irrelevant

 

Parently pressure for the wrong way

Order their kids what to do and what to say

No here I am and I look back but not in anger

Lost years I will never get back

 

It’s like a cold rain

It’s like a cold rain

It’s like a cold rain

‘till the pictures grow

 

Noone knows where it goes

But it is relevant

Pictures growing kids will know

That nothing is irrelevant

 


A Bard's Tale Trilogy – Part I | Rise of the poet

I'm not exactly what you call a soldier

And before you ask, I'm not a knight

I'm in fact afraid of horses

And would never draw a blade and fight

 

But I am not a coward

I risk my life for you

I hold up a mirror to the nobles

What is a deadly thing to do

 

I'm a poet with a purpose

Mailed with nothing but my voice

And my master's worn out lute

Is the weapon of my choice

 

This is the rise of the poet

This is the rise of the bard

Voice of an angel

With a burning heart

 

I'm not exactly what you call a minstrel

And before you ask, yes I'm a bard

It's not just wine, women and song

You should know it teared my life apart

 

Singing of honor

To provoke their shame

And if I should perish

Remember my name

 

I'm a poet with a purpose

Mailed with nothing but my voice

And my master's worn out lute

Is the weapon of my choice

 

This is the rise of the poet

This is the rise of the bard

Voice of an angel

With a burning heart


A Bard's Tale Trilogy – Part II | Into The Lion's Den

At the edge of the grave

But still no end in sight

Armed with passion and song

I shall face the king tonight

 

I shall sing of the blood

Covering his hands

I raise my voice and sing

Of an era that ends

 

Songs of truth

Echo from the walls

Songs of justice

Shattering the halls

Songs of hope

With bleeding heart I sing

In the den of the lion

In the hall of the king

 

At the edge of the grave

And still no fear inside

The high lords in anger

The king yet blinded by pride

 

I accomplished the deed

That was destined to fail

I faced the dragon in his cave

And still live to tell the tale

 

Songs of truth

Echo from the walls

Songs of justice

Shattering the halls

Songs of hope

With bleeding heart I sing

In the den of the lion

In the hall of the king

 

To open their eyes                                                    Songs of justice

To remember the dead                                              Songs of truth

To lighten your burden                                               Songs of freedom

To make them regret                                                 Songs of hope

 

Songs of truth

Echo from the walls

Songs of justice

Shattering the halls

Songs of hope

With bleeding heart I sing

In the den of the lion

In the hall of the king


A Bard's Tale Trilogy – Part III | The Curtain Falls

After all I came across

One unforgiving

For taunting a noble

I'm condemned to die

A bard fulfills his duty

Even when he falls

I still remember what

My master told me

 

Give your last coin to the hangman
And your love one last embrace
Tell the crowd your best joke and then
Die with a smile upon your face

 

My last curtain call
With a smile I’m gonna fall
Don’t cry for me
A bard is what I chose to be
I win the day
So wipe your tears away
The curtain falls
I'll see you in the golden halls

Now the time has come

When I join the fallen

My story ends

Before the day is done

I will show my worth to you

I won't die crying

My death shall be one last

Slap in your face

 

Give your last coin to the hangman
And your love one last embrace
Tell the crowd your best joke and then
Die with a smile upon your face

 

My last curtain call
With a smile I’m gonna fall
Don’t cry for me
A bard is what I chose to be
I win the day
So wipe your tears away
The curtain falls
I'll see you in the golden halls

It has come to this at last
The end I’ve chosen in the past
I have proven worthy to my fellow bards
They will keep my tale forever in their hearts
And my name alive in songs and rhymes
My deeds be remembered for all times
There's only one thing left to do then
I give my last coin to the hangman...


Armageddon

Watch TV and

Believe the bullshit

Watch TV and

Believe and love it

 

Close your eyes

And buy my bullshit

Close your eyes

And buy or rent it

 

Watch those losers 'round the world

And forget how small you are

To believe you're so much better

Than those morons near and far

 

Will you still dance, will you still cheer
When Armageddon is here

Will you still buy, will you still pay

At dawn of judgment day

 

I'm sure your friendly banker

will lend a helping hand

So you can spent more money

And buy a castle made of sand

 

Will you still dance, will you still cheer
When Armageddon is here

Will you still buy, will you still pay

At dawn of judgment day

 

We cross the line

To decadence and decay

We cross the line

Humanity has gone astray

We cross the line

Between what's right and what is wrong

We cross the line

Sanity and reason long lost and gone

 

Yes I will dance, yes I will cheer

When Armageddon is here

Yes I will hope yes I will pray

For the coming judgment day
