First topic message reminder :

10th man

Today I killed, he was just a boy
Eight before him, I knew them all
In the fields a dying oath:
Id 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 aint my fight

Deliver me from this war
Its not for me its because of you
Devils 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 aint 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 cant take it anymore"

They wait for me far 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 rulers tool, a priests excuse, a tyrants delight...
I alone, the great white hunter
Ill 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 aint my fight

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 aint my fight

The Riddler Lyrics
Riddler Riddler ask me why
The birds fly free on a mackerel sky
Ask me whither goes the wind
Whence the endless tick-tick stream begins

Make me guess if the earth is flat or round
Set a guessing if fantasies are unbound
If tales aren`t just for children to see
That it`s peace if sleep walks with me

As you wish
For kingdom come
The one to know all the answers
You think you dwell in wisdoms sea
Still sweet ignorance is the key
To a poet`s paradise
Challenge the Riddler and you will see...

Riddler Riddler ask me why
All mothers beneath the Earth and sky
Hold their children`s hands for a while
Their hearts forever - yours and mine

Make me wonder what`s the meaning of life
What`s the use to be born and then die
Make me guess who`s the one
Behind the mask of Father and Son

As you wish...

For nature hates virginity
I wish to be touched
Not by the hands of where`s and why`s
But by the Oceans` minds

As you wish...

The Siren Lyrics
A lady with a violin,
Playing to the seals
Hearken to the sound of calling


Who tied my hands to the wheel?
The Zodiac turns over me!
Come to me...
Somewhere there my fate revealed...
I hear but how will I see?


I tied myself to the wheel
The winds talk to my sails, not me
Come to me...
Somewhere there my fate revealed...
I hear but how will I see?

The Wayfarer Lyrics
(Released on the single "Ever Dream" and the japanese version of "Century Child".)

I went into the wilderness with Uncle Walt
I discovered the wild
Learning to suck all the experience
Seeing the world through cradle`s bars

The wild blessed me with an errant mind
Showing the way for the ultimate lore
I went around the world, beyond the wild
Finding my home from an ocean shore

Wayfarer, hartlander
What if I only had
One more night to live

Home is where the way is
My road goes on forever
One more voyage to go

Wayfarer, hartlander
What if I only had
One more night to live

Dead to the world
Alive for the journey

Wayfarer, hartlander
What if I only had
One more night to one more night to live

Wayfarer, hartlander
What if I only had
One more night to live


Home is where the way is
My road goes on forever
One more voyage to one more voyage one more voyage to go

This Moment Is Eternity Lyrics
Day possesses no key here
Where moon sheds the cold twilight
This moment is eternity

Land of beauty
Cold and cruel
Fjeld chants echoing
Reflecting the melancholy

Trust the wind
Trust the fire
Call for the hermit
The hermit of the night

Land of raven
Land of bear
Land of eagle
And wolverine

Dismal are the mirrors of a wolf

Tutankhamen Lyrics
As the sun sets beyond the pyramid
To greet me with its rays
I place my hand on my forehead
To see your chariots` flames

Watch me kneel before you
Hear the cats meowing in the temple
They yearn for the milk you cascaded
As I yearn your promised treasure

Treasure of
Tutankhamen
I am the one it is
Take me with you
Through the stargate
To the valley of the kings

Sacrifice me
Tutankhamen
And let me be your queen
Take me
Tonight and always
We`ll breed to fill all earth

Three millenniums it took me to guard your rest
Your slumber in mighty Phoenix`s nest
But tonight the darkness in the tomb has perished
For Carter has come to free my beloved

Treasure of...

Sacrifice me...

Two for Tragedy Lyrics
Sleep Eden sleep
My fallen son
Slumber in peace

Cease the pain
Life`s just in vain
For us to gain
Nothing but all the same

No healing hand
For your disease
Drinking scorn like water
Cascading with my tears

Beneath the candle bed
Two saddened angels - in heaven, in death

Now let us lie
Sad we lived sad we die
Even in your pride
I never blamed you

A mother`s love
Is a sacrifice
Together sleeping
Keeping it all

No sympathy
No eternity
One light for each undeserved tear

Beneath the candle bed
Two souls with everything yet to be said

Walking in The Air (Live) Lyrics
We`re walking in the air
We`re floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly

I`m holding very tight
I`m riding in the midnight blue
I`m finding I can fly so high above with you

Far across the world
The villages go by like trees
The rivers and the hills
The forests and the streams

Children gaze open mouth
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below believes their eyes

We`re surfing in the air
We`re swimming in the frozen sky
We`re drifting over icy
Mountains floating by

Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep
Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep

We`re walking in the air
We`re floating in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

Wanderlust Lyrics
I want to see where the sirens sing
Hear how the wolves howl
Sail the dead calm waters of the Pacific

Dance in the fields of coral
Be blinded by the white
Discover the deepest jungle

I want to find The Secret Path
A bird delivered into my heart

It`s not the end
Not the kingdom come
It is the journey that matters, the distant wanderer
Call of the wild
In me forever and ever and ever forever
Wanderlust

I want to love by the Blue Lagoon
Kiss under the waning moon
Straying, claiming my place in this mortal coil

Riding the dolphins
Asking the mountains
Dreaming Alaska
The Earth can have but Earth

I want to find...

It`s not the end...

Drown into my eyes and see the wanderer
See the mirrors of a wolf behold the pathfinder

Where Were You Last Night Lyrics
Still
Spinning round in my head
How I regret everything that I said
Why did I tell you to go
Saving my pride but losing my soul

I`m here all alone
Still wait by the phone
The hours go by
What else could I do but to cry

I call and I call
Just to make things right
Have I lost the fight
Where were you last night

I beg and I cry
I keep asking why
Where were you last night
Where were you last night

Lost
In the dark and my fears
If only you saw the tracks of my tears
I think I`m losing my mind
Where did you go and what did you find

I`m here all alone
Still wait by the phone
The hours go by
What else could I do but to cry

I call and I call
Just to make things right
Have I lost the fight
Where were you last night

I beg and I cry
I keep asking why
Where were you last night
Where were you last night

I call and I call
Just to make things right
have I lost the fight
Where were you last night

I beg and I cry
I keep asking why
Where were you last night
Where were you last night

[synth solo]

I`m here all alone
Still wait by the phone
the hours go by
what else could I do but to cry

I call and I call
just to make things right
have I lost the fight
Where were you last night

I beg and I cry

I call and I call
just to make things right
have I lost the fight
Where were you last night

I beg and I cry
I keep asking why
Where were you last night
Where were you last night

Where were you last night
Where were you last night

Nightwish While Your Lips Are Still Red lyrics


Sweet little words made for silence
Not talk
Young heart for love
Not heartache
Dark hair for catching the wind
Not to veil the sight of a cold world

Kiss while your lips are still red
While he`s still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand`s still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they`re still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn

First day of love never comes back
A passionate hour`s never a wasted one
The violin, the poet`s hand,
Every thawing heart plays your theme with care

Kiss while your lips are still red
While he`s still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand`s still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they`re still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn X2

White Night Fantasy Lyrics
White Night Fantasy (Once)

Enchantress came to me and said:
Meet me at the lake tonight

I hummed this song to the white
Through the shroud of snow I saw
Paradise
Peace
No more lies

Crestfallen soul
Rest for this night
Love is here
Right here under my wings

I dream of wolves with them I run
For me she lengthened the night
I am home
I am in peace

Crestfallen soul
Rest for this night
Love is here
Right here under my wings

(Bonus track)

Whoever Brings The Night Lyrics
We seduce the dark with pain and rapture
Like two ships that pass in the night
You and I, a whore and a bashful sailor
Welcome to a sunrise of a dirty mind

All you love is a lie
You one-night butterfly
Hurt me, be the one
Whoever brings the night

The Dark, created to hide the innocent white, the lust of night
Eyes so bright, seductive lies
Crimson masquerade where I merely played my part
Poison dart of desire

All you love is a lie
You one-night butterfly
Hurt me, be the one
Whoever brings the night

Choose a bride tonight
A fantasy for a zombie
Hurt me, I love to suffer
Your harem`s a dream for free

Enter
Suck from us and live forever
Rotten beauty
Will haunt you for a lifetime

Come with me underwater
And drown to despise me no more
Unholy, unworthy
My night is a dream for free

All you love is a lie
You one-night butterfly
Hurt me, be the one
Whoever brings the night

Wish You Were Here Lyrics
Wish you were here
Me oh my country man
wish you were here

I wish you were here
Don`t you know the snow is getting colder?
And I miss you like hell
And I`m feeling blue

Wish you were here
Me oh my country man
wish you were here
(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here
Don`t you know the snow is getting colder?
And I miss you like hell
And I`m feeling blue

I`ve got feelings for you
Do you still feel the same?
From the first time I laid my eyes on you
Felt the joy of living
I saw heaven in your eyes
In your eyes

Wish you were here
Me oh my country man
Wish you were here
(Wish you here)

I wish you were here
Don`t you know the snow is getting colder?
And I miss you like hell
And I`m feeling blue

I miss your laugh
I miss your smile
I miss everything about you
Every second is like a minute
Every minute`s like a day
When you`re far away

(The snow is getting colder and I wish you were here)
(A battlefield of love and fear, and I wish you were here)

I`ve got feelings for you
From the first time I laid my eyes on you

Wish you were here
Me oh my country man
Wish you were here
(Wish you were here)

I wish you were here
Don`t you know the snow is getting colder?
And I miss you like hell
And I`m feeling blue

(Wish you were here)
(I wish you were here)
