Текст песни:

6:30 winter morn
Snow keeps falling, silent dawn
A rose by any other name
Eva leaves her Swanbrook home
A kindest heart which always made
Me ashamed of my own
She walks alone but not without her name

Eva flies away
Dreams the world far away
In this cruel children′s game
There′s no friend to call her name
Eva sails away
Dreams the world far away
The Good in her will be my sunflower field

Mocked by man to depths of shame
Little girl with life ahead
For a memory of one kind word
She would stay among the beasts
Time for one more daring dream
Before her escape, edenbeam
We kill with her own loving heart

Eva flies away
Dreams the world far away
In this cruel children′s game
There′s no friend to call her name
Eva sails away
Dreams the world far away
The Good in her will be my sunflower field

Текст песни:

Come wet a widow′s eye
Cover the night with your love
Dry the rain from my beaten face
Drink the wine the red sweet taste of mine

Come cover me with you
For the thrill
Till you will take me in
Come comfort me in you
Young love must
Live twice only for us

For me
For you
Time devours passion′s beauty
With me
With you
In war for the love of you
(Tonight any dream will do)

Not a world but your fine grace
Seduction in sleepwalker′s land
November dressed in May on your face
Holding us now the lovecropper′s hand

Come cover me with you
For the thrill
Till you will take me in
Come comfort me in you
Young love must
Live twice only for us

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Toll no bell for me, Father
But let this cup of suffering pass from me
Send me no shepherd to heal my world
But the Angel - the dream foretold
Prayed more than thrice for You to see
The wolf of loneliness in me
...not my own will but Yours be done...

You wake up, where′s the tomb?
Will Easter come, enter my room?
The lord weeps with me
But my tears fall for you

Another beauty
Loved by a Beast
Another tale of infinitely dreams
Your eyes they were my paradise
Your smile made my sun rise

Forgive me, for I don′t know what I gain
Alone in this garden of pain
Enchantment has but one truth:
I weep to have what I fear to lose

(Repeat chorus)

I knew you never before
I see you never more
But the love, the pain, the hope, O beautiful one
Have made you mine, ′till all my years are done

Without you
The poetry within me is dead

You tell me, my love;
It′s not love if it′s not forever.
But let me tell you;
A Scene could be much more to remember than the play itself.

With Wishes for you, in June ′98

Текст песни:

Princess of lust
Dignity put to dust
A virginal sight
Their apple to bite

Drink from my thighs
The rain of lies
A sight so cursed
Breasts which never nursed

An Aphrodite for mortal souls
Playing hide and seek in lecherous roles
Their erotic hour my tearless weep
Their satisfaction my infinite sleep

Naked limbs reflecting from the moon
I′ll be there for you soon
First wish for this night:
Let me be your delight

Body of a virgin
Sould to the Devil′s kin
Your God is me
In all that you see

An Aphrodite for mortal souls...

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

The Islander
An old man by a seashore
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon

With sea winds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted

And a ship without a name
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts

The ones on their travels homeward from afar
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago

The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world′s unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all:

An island of the universe
Now his love′s a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time

Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet

And a smile beneath his brow
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago

Текст песни:

Today I killed, he was just a boy
Eight before him, I knew them all
In the fields a dying oath:
I′d kill them all to save my own

Cut me free,
Bleed with me,
Oh no
One by one,
We will fall,
down down
Pull the plug,
End the pain,
Run′n fight for life
Hold on tight,
this ain′t my fight

Deliver me from this war
It′s not for me it′s because of you
Devil′s instant my eternity
Obey to kill to save yourself

Cut me free
Bleed with me,
Oh no
One by one,
We will fall,
down down
Pull the plug,
End the pain,
Run′n fight for life
Hold on tight,
this ain′t my fight

"I envy the 9 lives that gave me hell
My path made up by their torn bodies
Man to man, soldier to soldier, dust to dust
Call me a coward but I can′t take it anymore"

They wait for me back home
The live with eyes turned away
They were the first ones to see
They are the last ones to bleed

"The ultimate high as all beautiful dies
A ruler′s tool, priest´s excuse, tyrant′s delight...
I alone, the great white hunter
I′ll march till the dawn brings me rest
10th patriot at the gallows′ pole!"

Cut me free
Bleed with me,
Oh no
One by one,
We will fall,
down down
Pull the plug,
End the pain,
Run′n fight for life
Hold on tight,
this ain′t my fight

Текст песни:

Soon I will be here no more
You′ll hear my tale
Through my blood
Through my poeple
And the eagle′s cry
The bear within
will never lay to rest

Wandering on Horizon road
Following the trail of tears

White man come
Saw the blessed land
We cared, you took
You fought, we lost
Not the war but an unfair fight
Sceneries painted beautiful in blood

Chorus:
Wandering on Horizon road
Following the trail of tears
Once we were here
Where we have lived since
the world began
Since time itself
gave us this land

Our souls will join again
the world
Our home in peace′n
war′n death

Chorus(x2)
Wandering on Horizon road
Following the trail of tears
Once we were here
Where we have lived since
the world began
Since time itself
gave us this land

Текст песни:

We used to swim the same moonlight waters
Oceans away from the wakeful day

- My fall will be for you -
My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
If you be the one to cut me
I′ll bleed forever

Scent of the sea before the waking of the world
Brings me to thee
Into the blue memory

- My fall will be for you -
My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
If you be the one to cut me
I will bleed forever

Into the blue memory

A siren from the deep came to me
Sang my name my longing
Still I write my songs about that dream of mine
Worth everything I may ever be

The Child will be born again
That siren carried him to me
First of them true loves
Singing on the shoulders of an angel
Without care for love n′ loss

Bring me home or leave me be
My love in the dark heart of the night
I have lost the path before me
The one behind will lead me

Take me
Cure me
Kill me
Bring me home
Every way
Every day
Just another loop in the hangman′s noose

Take me, cure me, kill me, bring me home
Every way, every day
I keep on watching us sleep

Relive the old sin of Adam and Eve
Of you and me
Forgive the adoring beast

Redeem me into childhood
Show me myself without the shell
Like the advent of May
I′ll be there when you say
Time to never hold our love

- My fall will be for you -
My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
You were the one to cut me
So I′ll bleed forever

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Get away from me!
Take heed to thyself and see my face no more!
for in the day Thou see my face
Thou shalt die!
- Exodus 10:28

A constellation of divine architecture built on Earth
A holy harbour - Orion
Nautical ascension to the firmament
Ship-shaped barrows open my heart to the wisdom of this
land
Sailing with the Serpent Chimera of a fiendish sandman
The Unicorn arrives with the westwind to dream His funeral
Thou art born for Horus dwells in Thee
Slumbering with the ebb and the flow of this foaming tomb
Thou art born for Seteh dwells in Thee
Reveal your face to me and guide me though the Stygian
fields
Enthral my soul to Sepedet′s beams to serve Your will

Sailing on the distant seas from darkness to deliverance
Tales like the ocean written to the Draco′s glance
Ruling with the scythe of death you tear out philosophies
apart
An ancient starwalk to merge into the stars

Open thy veins for my venom
Kiss the cobras with thy twisted tongue
So shalt thou join the empyrean circus
Where beggars mourn and seraphs dance
In this twilight cathedral
Shall I wed thee,
O Bride of the Netherworld

Sailing on the distant seas from darkness to deliverance
Tales like the ocean written to the Draco′s glance
Ruling with the scythe of death you tear out philosophies
apart
An ancient starwalk to merge into the stars

Join my soul the Hunter in the sky


@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

The ticktock of time allows me to see
An owl turn to an echo
The butterfly to a cocoon
A swan to Ugly Duckling, ruling to an ocean

The dead times awake
As I′ve been call myself to yesterday
A flower has fallen its petals
Out of the petals a cradle I will

My cradle rocks with the waves of time
The time of beauty will never be the same
Oh, little girl, as thou must no leave
Please take me, take me with thee

Now I hear my mother from the deep
Sing me a lullaby of eternal sleep
Wilt blow wee plant that last to recall
As in silence we sing to reborn

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Fare thee well, little broken heart

Downcast eyes, lifetime loneliness

Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone

Constant longing for the perfect soul

Unwashed scenery forever gone

No love left in me

No eyes to see the heaven beside me

My time is yet to come

So I′ll be forever yours

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Crownless again shall be the queen
Trophy on her grave still remains unseen
A boat on the river confessing the sins
The Riddler revealing the deep hidden things

Crownless again shall be the king
A gull covered in oil with a broken wing
A hitcher on a road alone and lost
Iron sharpens iron - a truth that once was

Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone
Mine is the throne for the idol
One fleeting moment and it is all gone
Crownless again
Will I fall?

Roaming on razor-sharp castles
Ruling all but myself
(Now my night is laid to sleep)

One fragrant rose worth ten times what I am
A crippled begging a coin braver than I ever was
Reflection from me - Devil dressed in white
Chasten the being
Become what I once was
Mine is the Earth...

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Time it took the most of me
And left me with no key
To unlock the chest of remedy
Mother, the pain ain′t hurting me
But the love that I feel
When you hold me near

The hopes were high
The choirs were vast
Now my dreams are left to live through you

Red Sun rising
Drown without inhaling
Within, the dark holds hard

Passiontide
An angel by my side
But no Christ to end this war
To deliver my soul from the sword
Hope has shown me a scenery
Paradise poetry
With first snow I′ll be gone

The hopes were high
The choirs were vast
Now my dreams are left to live through you

Red Sun rising
Drown without inhaling
Within, the dark holds hard
Red Sun rising
Curtain falling
Higher than hope my cure lies

Your death saved me

Red Sun rising
Drown without inhaling
Within, the dark holds hard
Red Sun rising
Curtain falling
Higher than hope my cure lies

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Denying the lying
A million children fighting
For lives in strife
For hope beyond the horizon

A dead world
A dark path
Not even crossroads to choose from
All the bloodred
Carpets before me
Behold this fair creation of God

My only wish to leave behind
All the days of the Earth
An everyday hell of my kingdom come

The 1st rock thrown again
Welcome to hell, little Saint
Mother Gaia in slaughter
Welcome to paradise, Soldier

My 1st cry neverending
All life is to fear for life
You fool, you wanderer
You challenged the gods and lost

Save yourself a penny for the ferryman
Save yourself and let them suffer
In hope
In love
This world ain′t ready for The Ark
Mankind works in mysterious ways

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

For whom the gun tolls?
For whom the prey weeps?
Bow before a war
Call it religion.

Some wounds never heal,
Some tears never will.
Dry for the unkind,
Cry for mankind.

Even the dead cry
Their only comfort.
Kill your friend, I don’t care!
Orchid kids, blinded stare.

Need to understand!
No need to forgive!
No truth, no sense left
To be followed.

"Facing this unbearable fear
Like meeting an old friend."

"Time to die, poor mates,
You made me what I am!"

"In this world of a million religions
Everyone prays the same way."

"Your praying is in vain!
It’ll all be over soon!"

"Father, help me,
Save me a place by your side!"

"There is no God,
Our creed is but for ourselves.
Not a hero unless you die,
Our species eat the wounded ones."

"Drunk with the blood of your victims!
I do feel your pity-wanting pain,
Lust for fame, a deadly game!"

"Run away with your impeccable kin!"

"Good wombs hath borne bad sons..."

Cursing, God, why?
Falling for every lie
Survivors′ guilt
In us forevermore

15 candles -
Redeemers of this world.
Dwell in hypocrisy:
"How were we supposed to know?"

@ Nightwish

Текст песни:

Close your eyes
Feel the ocean where passion lies
Silently the senses
Abandon all defences

A place between sleep and awake
End of innocence,
Unending masquerade
That′s where I′ll wait for you

Hold me near you
So close I sear you
Seeing, believing
Dreaming, decieving

A place between sleep and awake
End of innocence,
Unending masquerade
That′s where I′ll wait for you

Sleepwalker seducing me
I dare to enter your ecstacy
Lay yourself now down to sleep
In my dreams you′re mine to keep

(Sleepwalk with me...)

Sleepwalker seducing me
I dare to enter your ecstacy
Lay yourself now down to sleep
In my dreams you′re mine to keep
