The Black Death

The Black Death
No more ringing bells, no silent cry
For those who chose preyer or booze
Or another god
Death was knocking at the door
The black Lord blowing for last time
Man sank in the blackness
No helping hand to grab
As the plague was spreading hate
The Lord laughed at the pleb's fate
Lost suffering souls,
black bitter tears
Flying raven's gazes
to the witches
Deal with the devil selling souls
The bells of death in the reign of
Empty streets
Empty eyes
Empty souls
Empty hearts
"Are the witches the mothers of the plague?
Or maybe it’s him, the devil himself?
All thatʼs known to us is this terrible truth:
No priest or doctor can save these lands"
These painful dark winds whisper to punish sins
Invoking silently evil
Screaming like a black raven
The wagon of death
wondering down the streets
Withering naive lives
while whiffing its stench
Bringing back echoes of desperation
And pouring bane in the land of
Empty streets
Empty eyes
Empty souls
Empty hearts

DAWN OF A NEW ERA
May faith and reason guide us forever
Numbers and shapes are the holy spoke
The veil of the black mare has faded away
Like a man stake in spirals of smoke
The sky we see above belongs to our father
But the earth here down belongs to the son
It's time to build up now something for us
A reign of circles and a reign of squares
See the straight lines of enlightened minds
See the straight lines of minds!
The circles of divine blessed man
Blessed man, blessed man!
And the pale cure sharped cold bodies
Cold bodies, cold bodies!
Designed by God himself
God himself, God himself!
Drawing and sculpting we can change the world
A good hand and a silver tip will make great designs
We'll return for man’s sake where we started
To recover and discover the roots of beauty
In the room where we pray a mirror is lying
By glorifying our god we don't forget ourselves
Hear those words my friend and remember well
The sun will rise again but it won't fall
See the straight lines of enlightened minds
See the straight lines of minds!
The circles of divine blessed man
Blessed man, blessed man!
And the pale cure sharped cold bodies
Cold bodies, cold bodies!
Designed by God himself
God himself, God himself!

CAPTAIN'S LOG
Eight in the morning of the first day
Journey begins from Saltes bay
But soon the ship's wheel plays us a joke
To fix the damage we have to stop
Thanks to the admiral we're ready again
To cross the sea, to cleft in twain
“Captain, do you see that heron flying?
We can't be far" he's sighing
Wind blows up her tail leave back our tail
Stars will guide us between the waves
You try to prevent but we'll win again
We will win in the end
After miles of pain
The Queen of Spain I pray
She believes, she agrees
We will ride the seas!
After many miles and many days
I thought we'd give up anyway
But suddenly in the night i hear
Someone screaming “We're near!”
Friendly people help us to dock
With masks and paintings to us they talk
We offer necklaces and colored caps
They're happy to realize it's not a trap
Friends, that's what we are
Leaves a sign, shall be with you our peace!
We don't come in war, I hope that no more
Fights will split the world
After miles of pain
The Queen of Spain I pray
She believes, she agrees
We will ride the seas!

Confession

CONFESSION
In the heart of the forest embraced by the trees
In the black foggy night we pray ancient gods
Under the leaves, under the light of the moon
Three witches we are, but with the souls pure and clean
But they want us to die
On this sacred night
They came with their swords and with dark threatening words
They want us to confess, where lies the place of our black mass
“They took us from our trees, our lives, our spirits
The cross, held by criminals of faith, judge us from hell”
Now we are down here, enclosed by the stone
Prisoners of fear, dressed in gold
Three young innocent women we are
But two of us can’t stand here in the dark
So we confess the place of our black mess
So we confess the place of our black mess
They came with their swords and with dark threatening words
They want us to confess, where lies the place of our black mass
In the heart of the city, fooled by the men
In the gray foggy day we pray ancient gods
Under the tower, under the hateful looks
Three witches we are, with a body of dust
And on this painful day
we are covered in flames!
We will rise up, as sure we’ll never die!
They came with their swords and with dark threatening words
They want us to confess, where lies the place of our black mass

In the Name of the Lord

IN THE NAME OF THE LORD
The holy army marching north
Riding with a hunger for war
Red Fury hunts the threat
Never to retreat
Cannons stand facing the walls
To crumble the slightest hopes
Fire at will wait 'till they're ready to kill!
Soldiers die, Ascend to the sky
Warriors Ahead! This will be our revenge!
Soldiers die! Ascends to the skies, no more lies!
Close to oblivion
In the name of the lord
Breaking through enemy walls
They storm into the halls
Caesar wrath bring'em fear
High white flag appears
Taurus stands, he advances,
Fights to catch the snake
Back to Rome's gate,
This war ends with hate
Soldiers die, Ascend to the sky
Warriors Ahead! This will be our revenge!
Soldiers die! Ascends to the skies, no more lies!
Close to oblivion
In the name of the lord
Soldiers die, Ascend to the sky
Warriors Ahead! This will be our revenge!
Soldiers die! Ascends to the skies, no more lies!
Close to oblivion
In the name of the lord
Soldiers die! Ascends to the skies, no more lies!
Close to oblivion
For our lord!

BATTLE OF LEPANTO
Over shining dark blue seas
Far from mountains, plains and trees
For this island in western reign,
Man prepares to war again
Under the clear autumn sun
Prepares to kill them one by one
A gathering made of christian lords
Came here for some great rewards
On the sea, eyes lose light!
To dominate, man expires
Shores and waves are their graves
The soldiers are now from home too far
Up to the sky, music of rage
Down at the blue, only ruins of fallen ships
Galleys on fire, a roaring choir
Fueled at once, the ire of the fighters
Up to the sky, music of rage
Down at the blue, only flesh of fallen men
Face to face two armies stand
Cannons ready, swords in hand
The Turkish empire is moving first
For greater victories they are thirst
In the midst of the advance
The wind gives allies one last chance
So begins the end of a day
When the empire had to flee away
On the sea, eyes lose light!
To dominate, man expires
Shores and waves are their graves
The soldiers are now from home too far
Up to the sky, music of rage
Down at the blue, only ruins of fallen ships
Galleys on fire, a roaring choir
Fueled at once, the ire of the fighters
Up to the sky, music of rage
Down at the blue, only flesh of fallen men

THE HANGED MAN
While I crossed the river walking on the old bridge
I was taken by a shiver, time arrived to judge
Angry people in the squares roaring at those liars
No more than one tear burning up like fire
Oh great painter tell me now
What cruel fate has hanged this man?
Well, young boy I will tell you
The story of a conspiracy
I saw that face hanged up he sinned for his glory
With his minions he killed the lords with no mercy
One fell one lived cathedral seemed like painted blood
The whole city in grief time of vengeance has come
Oh great painter tell me now
What cruel fate has hanged this man?
Well, young boy I will tell you
The story of a conspiracy
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine
Et lux perpetua luceat eis,
Requiescant in pacem
Amen

ON THE MOON
For you I traveled here, looking for wits,
you have lost to the moon I went:
I went for all
In steel and flaming skies I ride the myth,
I ride the hope, to the moon I went:
I went for all
From Wonder I’ve been caught,
Facing the world’s mysteries
and things I can’t
I can't believe
In a valley I was brought by Saint John
Where things lost on earth
Can be found, here again
The cart was pushed to the sky by mighty horses rode
The earth from the moon high was only a far glow
What we lose on earth we can find here:
prayers, glory fame and tears,
sad old loves are golden worn out bows
I saw every kind of feeling, only madness was far hidden
'cause madness you can find only on earth
Sufferings and tears, unkept preyers,
Twigs like evergreen, golden hooks for the Queen
Broken bottles, wasted time,
You can find on the moon so high
On winged beasts I ride to the reign of the moon
To find what your love had stolen from your mind
For you I traveled here to the reign of the moon
Looking for wits that were stolen from your mind
And then I found them finally a lot of bottles closed indeed
Containing fluid like-vanishing men's wits
The biggest one had an old engraving
Heavy and dirty i had to clean it
“Wits of Roland" it is declaimed, I brought with me
I ran quickly to the cart, and the cart ran to the Earth
And than i run to you, mad man
Sufferings and tears, unkept preyers,
Twigs like evergreen, golden hooks for the Queen
Broken bottles, wasted time,
You can find on the moon so high
