Now there's a story to tell, let me start:
It comes from the dirt, the seeds that you plant.
It's bout a maiden and her four lives affair,
She had to live low, right here and right there.
She had just begun this 'mazing journey,
That's life itself - a full memory.
No more time to spare, there's so much to sing.
Raise your heads, as if for the King.
She had just been born no more than a day,
So cruel that you'll find, the Deity's plan.
There's all to be gone, still she's just appeared,
Lift a glass and sing, for this one shall live.
So much will be said, so much will be told,
But we should stay strong and don't give into hold.
«How am I to believe in the legends of old?»
«For a first life» I say «there's still truth to behold.»
Since the first time she laughed till the days others wept,
She planted her seeds low - watch them grow in the next.
«In this life» the Witch said «you shall learn to begin:
Hear your masters today and then bow to the Queen.»
But she picked the wrong time so now off with her head,
That's what life is about: or you live or you're dead.
For an adventurous life matters not what you say,
But what you do with your time and the clock that He gave.

If I could hold you now
And tell you all about it
I'd like to tell you how
With a look it became slow
It's love inside, and it feels so alive
So lovely, so lonely
I dive in time, in the moonlight
I dive into, your smile
Like a flower blooming out
Crescenting eyes
Those of the moonlight
In the sunset I hide
It's warm inside
When it was our secret place
I miss that time
Like a hunter, I keep chasing
After all this mess, everything I get
Open the door
And let me in
Tell me about
Your treasure chest
If you allow
I'll take you home
They told me: don't be that way
I told them: it's not so easy
I'm yellow inside
For those who say "Life is so light"
Open the door
And let me in
Tell me about
Your treasure chest
If you allow
I'll take you home

I hope she ends the life she wants to.
There's no one here to say "I told you".
There's only me to watch you over,
The only girl who left the cover.
There's a fire growing low, like the seeds that you watered
And it's going wild harvesting souls with the will to destroy her.
What will you do when all is over?
What will you say if the end is closer?
Will you stay there and watch hangover?
Or put a crown of dead leaves on her?
There's a fox tribe scaring crows in their nests knowing not why
And it's running fast like the time that you've put in the past.
You could say that I was wrong.
Looking forward to hear from you: it will take so long.
You could say that I was scared to leave without a trace of friends to an unknown space.
You could say what the Witch had warned me to do, but I didn't care.
You could say that I missed my time to explain, my turn to be loved.
But nothing to fear!
There's no other way to go.
Just follow the white lights
And you'll see the snow!
Summer is gone,
Autumn has come,
Winter has to be
But they've all been done.
First was learning all,
Then was just to see,
Now what you can do is
To feel free.
Look into the past:
What have you become?
Scared of what you'll say
Or what I'll tell mom.
This was a third chance,
Next will be the last,
Think of what you want and
What you'll come to pass.

Whispers, in the wind, they flow.
Creatures, sway your mind, to go.
Don't let them tell you lies or make you cry.
No, no.
Demons, you cannot run from.
Roses, in the cold, a thorn.
In the calm breeze you'll try high:
Drowning, frowning, blowing, sparring!
('Cause) Down the drain, in time we go,
A cold train, we watch below.
A Knight at night in silver glow,
He stands, he sees, he says-
Flowers, in the spring, they'll come
Crows weep, all the steps, you've done.
Is this all there is left to see?
What else would you like to be?
('Cause) Down the drain, in time we go,
A cold train, we watch below.
A Knight at night in silver glow,
He stands, he sees, he says: «Behold!
Angels!
Awaiting, masking the gate.
Inside of my heart I could have done the part.
Angels,
Awaiting, masking the gate.
Inside of my heart I could have done the part.
So look out for the ace
That tells you golden tales:
She takes all, she sees none,
She's a Fallen Angel.»
I don't want to leave in this way;
What to stand for
Now that you're gone?
Hear my cries and tell me now
That you have too been by my side.
There's so much more to do and see!
I know it's hard, don't let yourself
Wonder the dark and close your eyes
You'll see the light;
There's so much more than this
