4. Keeper Of Time - Ethernal Champion (2002- Hypeion)
["In love and dreams she comes to me... The Keeper of Time"]
Life as a soldier was all to easy for me - To eradicate and annihilate fit my identity Raised as a fighting machine, to destroy the enemy threat Suddenly and with no sense you came with the bloodshed
Sons and daughters of war, I have witnessed a creature I can't control anymore Fell in love with a girl of the future, now talk to me, teach me... war lovers we will be!
You made a difference in the chaos I saw - You gave me a reason not to fight anymore In between rage and sudden death - You gave me hope - you stole my breath
Brainwashed in the art of war I've got the will to fight on - All sense of humanity is a history -long gone Following the orders - no remorse or no fear - You appeared to me Like a mad dream here
Then you came from a distant unknown, between dream and reality Fighting together from time to time, now talk to me, teach me... war lovers we will be!
I met you in your past, but in my future in a meeting still to come And listened to your whispers, you had a voice that made me numb Your eyes blazed like jewels in the sun as you whispered in my ear I'll take care of you my love - you've got nothing to fear
When morning came, we kept each other perfectly warm in the chilling breeze Constantly sand or snow tore at naked walls Your voice burred with the hint of an accent unknown Constantly sand or snow tore at naked walls
In a time of passion I close my eyes....... And see : Bodies burning in the solid laser light Heat of plasma explosions as I try to survive the night Fireballs enlarging as I lie among the dead More dead to come as suns explode in ruby red
THE DYING WORLDS!!!
Star systems, extinct in spasms of deadly fire Thickened air itself aflame as I can't control my desire Seas of superheated air rise in vast pulses of flame Blazing in mad heat - you brought a war from where you came
