And Then There Was Silence lyrics

Turn your head and see the fields of flames

(Don't move along)

He carries along

(Cause things they will go wrong)

From a distant place

(The end is getting closer)

He's on his way

(Day by day)

He'll bring decay

In shades of grey

We're doomed to face the night

Light's out of sight

Since we've reached the point of no return

We pray for the starlight we wait for the Moon

The sky is empty, alone in the unknown

we're getting nowhere

We have been betrayed by the wind and the rain

The sacred hall's empty and cold

The sacrifice made should not be done in vain

Revenge will be taken by Rome

We live a lie

Under the dying moon

Pale-faced laughs doom

Indulges in delight

It's getting out of hand

The final curtain will fall

Hear my voice

There is no choice

There's no way out

You'll find out

We don't regret it

So many men have failed but now he's (gone)

Go out and get it

The madman's head it shall be thine

We don't regret it

That someone else dies hidden in (disguise)

Go out and get it

Orion's hound shines bright

Don't you think it's time to stop the chase

Around the ring

Just stop running, running

Round the ring

Don't you know that fate has been decided

By the gods

Feel the distance, distance

Out of reach

Welcome to the end

Watch your step, Cassandra, you may fall

As I've stumbled on the field

Find myself in darkest places

(Sister mine)

Find myself drifting away

(Death's a certain thing)

And the other world

The other world appears

Find myself she dies in vain

I cannot be freed, I'm falling down

As time runs faster, moves towards disaster

The ferryman will wait for you, my dear

And then there was silence

Just a voice from the other world

Like a leaf in an icy world

Memories will fade

Misty tales and Poems lost

All the bliss and beauty

Will be gone

Will my weary soul find release for a while

At the moment of death I will smile

It's the triumph of shame and disease

In the end (Iliad)

Raise my hands and praise the day

Break the spell show me the (way)

In decay

The flame of Troy will shine bright

The newborn child will carry ruin to the hall

The newborn's death would be a blessing to us all

Good choice?

Bad choice?

Out of three you've chosen misery

Power and wisdom you deny

(Bad choice, bad choice)

War is the only answer when Love will conquer fear

So the judgement's been made

To the fairest the graceful says

Badly he fails

(Warning)

Fear the heat of passion, father king

(Don't let him in

Don't let her in)

Desire, lust, obsession

Death they'll bring

(We can't get out

Once they are in)

She's like the sunrise

Outshines the Moon at night

Precious like starlight

She will bring in a murderous price

(In darkness grows the seed of man's defeat)

Jealousy

(I can clearly see the end now)

I can clearly see the end now

I can clearly see the end now

(The thread of life is spun)

The coin's been placed below my tongue

Never give up

Never give in

Be on our side so we can win

Never give up

Never give in

Be on our side

(Old moon's time) is soon to come

Nowhere to run

Nowhere to hide

Nothing to lose like one we'll stand

We'll face the storm

Created by a man

Roar Roar Roar Roar

Troy (Troy Troy Troy)

And as the lion slaughters man

I am the wolf and you're the lamb

(Hallowed) Troy will fall round the walls

Faith is shattered, bodies fall

Nowhere to run

Nowhere to hide

Nothing to lose like one we'll stand

It's all for one and one for all

We live for will be wiped out

I feel that something's (wrong)

Surprise, surprise they're gone

Full moon your time goes by

And new moon's still kept out of sight

We live

Misty tales and Poems lost

(We die)

All the bliss and beauty will be gone

Will my weary soul find release for a while

At the moment of death I will smile

It's the triumph of shame and disease

In the end (Iliad)

Raise my hands and praise the day

Break the spell show me the (way)

In decay

The flame of Troy will shine bright

Roam in darkness

(Spread the vision)

Roam in darkness

(Spread the vision)

Roam in darkness

(Spread the vision)

Roam in darkness

(Spread the vision)

(Roam in darkness)

(We will be lost if you truly believe)

(Roam in darkness)

Troy in darkness

(There's a cold emptiness in our hearts)

That they've gone away

(And) won't come back

They'll tear down the wall to bring it in

They'll truly believe in the lie

Lie, lie

With blossoms they'll welcome the old foe

The vision's so clear

When day and dream unite the end is near

You better be prepared

The nightmare shall be over now, there's nothing more to fear

Come join in our singing and dance with us now

The nightmare shall be over now, there's nothing more to fear

The war it is over forevermore

No hope

The blind leads the blind

Carry on

Though future's denied

Mare or stallion

There's far more inside

We are in at the kill we'll cheerfully die

Misty tales and Poems lost

All the bliss and beauty

Will be gone

(Will) my weary soul find release for a while

At the moment of death I will smile

It's the triumph of shame and disease

In the end (Iliad)

Raise my hands and praise the day

Break the spell show me the (way)

In decay

The flame of Troy will shine bright

Holy light shines on

So the judgement's been made

We're condemned though the trial's far ahead

The crack of doom, Father

Your handsome son is heading home

Still the wind blows, calm and silent

Carries news from a distant shore

Still the wind blows, calm and silent

Carries news from a distant shore

Still the wind blows, calm and silent

(Out of mind)

Carries news from a distant shore

(Can't get it)

(Still the wind blows, calm and silent)

(Out of mind)

(Carries news from a distant shore)

(Can't get it out of my head)

(Can't get it)

(Out of mind)

(Can't get it out of my head)

Sorrow and defeat

Sorrow and defeat
