Precious Jerusalem

No doubt, doubt

No longer need to hide it
I've found out who I am
I moved around in circles
I rise and fall again

I know it well, every word I tell
Seems to make no sense at all

Words will heal it
Love will conquer
The hearts of the hopeless
The almighty is still alive

Rising up from the heart of the desert
Rising up for Jerusalem
Rising up from the heart of the desert
Building up old Jerusalem

Rising up from the heart of the desert
Rising up for Jerusalem
Rising up from the heart of the desert
Building up old Jerusalem

I've gone beyond but there's no life
And there is nothing how it seems
I've gone beyond but there's no life
There is no healing rain in Eden

The empty barren wasted paradise
Let's celebrate the dawning of the son

I turn to you, oh, my precious Jerusalem
Deny your prophets, their passion and treat them like fools
I turn to you, oh, my precious Jerusalem
Deny my love but you can change fate

Son of man
You truly are mine

Can't stand the pain
No more grief and misery
It goes on and on and on and on
And on and on and on

Father, stop it now
We must stop it now

You really think you are half way up?
I would not mind if you were right, it's not sure
I'd rather say you are half way down
So I am going to help you if I can

I've been caught in wilderness
In wilderness, I've got out well
I found myself in desert lands
In desert lands but you've been on my mind

I turn to you, oh, my precious Jerusalem
Deny your prophets, their passion and treat them like fools
I turn to you, oh, my precious Jerusalem
Deny my love but you can change truth

Rise up and follow me
'Cause I will bring the light
Rise up and follow me
Wake up and clear your mind

I try to bring it back the seed of life
I try to bring it back the seal of light

So if you say there's no faith in man
You better keep in mind
That I can read between the lines
My heavy burden brings eyesight to the blind

I've been caught in wilderness
In wilderness, I've got out well
I found myself in desert lands
In desert lands but you've been on my mind

I turn to you, oh, my precious Jerusalem
Deny your prophets, their passion and treat them like fools
I turn to you, oh, my precious Jerusalem
Deny my love but you can change me

Battlefield

It cannot be seen
But there's blood on the green
Only god knows I'm innocent
Take me, take me home

A dark seed reigns in me
Like the storm rules over the sea
I challenge thee
Do not cross this bridge alone

Don't dare me now
The threatening shadows will pass by
There're getting closer now
Open your eyes

Wake up, my dear young friend
And hate shall fade away
I will not move yet
I'll stand still instead

There on the battlefield he stands
Down on the battlefield he's lost
And on the battlefield it ends

War and anger shall reign
The clash of iron can be heard
By blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief

Sorrow won't wane 'till you die
A shattered body deeply hurt
And darkness will cover the light
It's gone forevermore

The field's been left in sorrow
The father and the son, they're gone

The sun shines bright and anger rises
Lorn and lonely torn apart
Don't you think it's time to stop now?
We were charmed and fooled by the old serpent's kiss

Let's pray that heaven is on our side
Through violence and horror shall honour arise
So let's pray and blessed shall be our leader
We follow the noble and bright

Don't you hear me crying? Crying
Come take me away, I hallow thy name

There on the battlefield he stands
Down on the battlefield he's lost
And on the battlefield it ends

War and anger shall reign
The clash of iron can be heard
By blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief

Sorrow won't wane 'till you die
A shattered body deeply hurt
And darkness will cover the light
It's gone forevermore

That's what minstrel sing
Join in the horrible screams
Take part in murderous deeds
Renowned be the lion hearted

Join in the minstrelsy
Wailing in endless grief
It eagerly longs for more
Broken bodies lay down on the ground

Blood sheds all over the place
The green will be stained forever
And hate reigns all over the field
They keep struggling on in anger

Fiercely intense, outrageous, too blind to see
And in pain they keep on singing
We claim the land for the highlord
God bless the land and our highlord

War and anger shall reign
The clash of iron can be heard
By blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief

Sorrow won't wane 'till you die
A shattered body deeply hurt
And darkness will cover the light
It's gone forevermore

Under the ice

Run 'till you find the answer
Time out for our poor Cassandra
She's fairy safe inside the fire

Inside the fire
Awakes desire
Cruelly admired

They'll torture her soul
And they'll torment her heart
But won't change her mind

Would you like to see me
How I'll cut off her head?
Life's a game
A lesson to learn

Don't be shy, just blame me
Well, there is no need to feel ashamed
Remember the oath
Remember the oath

Wake up, it's time to cross the border
Is it true what they say
About the part you've played?

Enjoy your stay here
Welcome to the slaughter house
Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods

Under the ice you will believe
Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods

Please, understand
It's not in our hands
Barren the land
It's all dead and gone

And still the tyrant's face is red
So witness my glory
My triumph, my fame
It's the sweetest taste

King of terror
Just stop wining, hold your breath
It won't take long
Realize, this is your judgement day

In between the killing carry on

There are no rules here
Welcome to the slaughter house
Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods

Under the ice you will believe
Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods

Try to understand

You're the artificial enemy
An illusion we all need
For our sake
For our sake

We're not allowed to see
Beyond that's your skill
Will we ever learn the lesson?
We can't fly with broken wings

Break the chains
Time to change

I'm afraid to say
But you won't play a part

It's been nice
We now get to the climax
Your destination's unknown
Just get out of my way

Don't mind the blood here
Welcome to the slaughter house
Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods

Under the ice you will believe
Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods

Try to understand

Under the ice you will be free
Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain and no more gods
And no more gods

I'm afraid to say
But you won't play a part

Sadly sings destiny

A wooden cup and a crown of thorns
Will set up the stage for the cross
I rent a room next door, there is nothing more
No further voices to hear, I'll be free

It doesn't matter anymore
That someone's knocking at my door
I've known it long before
The Galilean's on the floor

Shame on me, shame on me
I'm a tool and nothing more

I can feel it's getting nearer
Images, they'll turn out clearer
Creeps in and out of your mind
I'm destiny personified

I know there's something more behind
But is it really justified?
To sacrifice, to crucify
The rescue of the human kind

Sadly sings destiny
Sadly sings destiny
For ages I've been waiting
Now spring is in the air, let it in

Sadly sings destiny
Sadly sings destiny
For ages I've been waiting
Now spring is in the air, let it in

I hear them howling, hear them scream
The raging mob turns mad it seems
The king's in town, we need a crown
I think we all know how it ends

So we're not going take it longer
So all I know is I don't care
Sp we're not going take it longer
Now we are aware

I can feel it's getting nearer
Images, they'll turn out clearer
Creeps in and out of your mind
I'm destiny personified

I know there's something more behind
But is it really justified?
To sacrifice, to crucify
The rescue of the human kind

Sadly sings destiny
Sadly sings destiny
For ages I've been waiting
Now spring is in the air, let it in

Sadly sings destiny
Sadly sings destiny
For ages I've been waiting
Now spring is in the air, let it in

There I tie the ass
There I tie the colt
Begging for a last chance

I hear the voices say:
"We get him home tonight
And that's all you need to know"
I'm alone

So I can't stand it any longer
And I don't want to see it all
Nazarene, your vision will come true
Will come true, they'll get you

I can feel it's getting nearer
Images, they'll turn out clearer
Creeps in and out of your mind
I'm destiny personified

I know there's something more behind
But is it really justified?
To sacrifice, to crucif
