Castle
In Purple Visions (demo)
1. The Emperor's Children
Children on their way
Travelling through lands of snow
They are on a mission
Five, so they say
Exposure... long ago
Causing... purple visions
Consumed by innocence
When clouds of the lords collide, I did collapse too
Swarms of (f)lies... enter our void
Rearranging every kind of humanoid
There is no-one to recreate our lost minds
Petrified eyes, perceiving nothing, no one finds
Walls of ice - exist no longer - we're exposed
Remaining lies - growin' stronger - heaven's closed
Children on their way
Travelling through lands of snow
They are on a mission
Five, so they say
Exposure... long ago
Causing... black collisions
There is no God but Man, he's the Emperor
2. Exposed...
Since long... been floating... through oceans... alone...
Big walls of ice protect me for the outside
It's cold inside, a neverending grey night
Despite the safety, I dream and moan
They're always about the same they're warm
But warmth becomes heat, it's growin': a red storm
A long time ago, I did, trust a young God
He did gave me warmth, he did care a lot!
But as true Gods do, he faded, disappeared in the air
Left me with my solitude, life isn't fair
I did shape my wall
Wrote my youth on a scroll
Gods don't care after all
The time consumer ate my life
Benefiting from my age of strife
Now warmth is kept away
And everyday is the same day
[Guitar solo: Ilja]
[Keyboard solo: Richard]
My eyes they stare through tunnels of glass...
Slowly the second sunrise appears
It's purple rays, they melt, come near
Memories dripping, I remember how it was
But it wasn't worth it for an innocent mermaiden
I've lost his feelings and lost his faith.
A long time ago, I did, trust a young God
He did gave me warmth, he did care a lot!
But as true Gods do, he faded, disappeared in the air
Left me with my solitude, life isn't fair
I did shape my wall
Wrote my youth on a scroll
Gods don't care after all
The time consumer ate my life
Benefiting from my age of strife
Now warmth is kept away
And everyday is the same day
I now do have an alternative
I have the choice to stay or to live
Once I loved. It hurts a lot
Where is he?
Where is he now, your Son of God
3. The Lake
Mesmerizing depths - My soul jarred
Overwhelming isles - Grabbing my eyes
Darkened water - She's Acheron's daughter
A siren's whisper - Telling old lies
Ancient beauty - Deceiving duty
In this lake - Innocence dies
For years and years I swam, there's no border
My thoughts so cold, I can't think any further
Grappling lies, there just - Disorder...
Chilling winds, crushing cold, my warmth is sold
I'm so tired, endurance left, my broken brains
She did use my young flesh, until it crashed
No more colours. All there's left, are my inner pains
I'd still could dive and swim
My fire is burning, it isn't frozen yet
The past, it's bleeding, it's awfully looking grim
Yellow roses, slowly we're turned from red
I'm drowning inside, the pain I can't hide
I'm obliged to change my life, I won't survive my last dive
I'm drowning inside, the pain I can't hide.
Lies!!!
[Solos: Ilja, Richard, Ilja, Richard]
Slowly realizing I wasn't dead
No more drowning inside my head
My meaning of life, converted to sin
My dreams they are perverted to what I've been
Whisper's lose their breath
Dying their own death
Sunlight burning me blue
I denied because of you
4. Unicorns I Have Known
In puffs of balm, the night air blows
The perfume which, they day foregoes
Watching the liquid sky above the hill
Yearning - the fields are still
In the midnight forest the dark oak trees don't move
(As if I had the silence itself to prove)
Suddenly he appears, a milk white creature
With the proud form of a horse
He moves his head, I recognize my saviour
My future foretold did change it's course
The silver moonlight running like sea water
Along the pearly spiral of his horn
Am I his daughter?
Deserving his scorn
And on the pure fading horizon far,
See pulsing with the firstborn star.
The Unicorn I have known, the fear I've shown
Watching the liquid sky above the hill
The evening it comes slowly, the fields are still
In the midnight forest the dark oak trees don't move
As if they had the silence itself to prove
And on the pure fading horizon far,
See pulsing with the firstborn star.
The Unicorn I have known, the fear I've shown
[Solo: Richard]
