Aeternitas
Haunted Minds



1. Destiny

Strong is your insatiable desire
To reach out for the promised destiny
Major goals are always in the distance
Hard to find and clearly far away

Lost in time throughout the endless journey
Lost in time in pain and deprivation

Lost in time – it's truly a high price you have to pay
To obtain all your dreams

Over mountains you climbed
Over oceans you sailed
On the quest for your high destiny
In the deep hidden sites
And in dangerous heights
You have found only vast misery

Weakened – the original desire
Faded is the longing destiny

Painful is this miserable ending
This world is not the place you're looking for

Wasted years you've spent with pointless wandering
Wasted years alone in mental darkness

Wasted years have passed but for your sake it's not too late
To awake from your dream

Over mountains you climbed
Over oceans you sailed
On the quest for your high destiny
In the deep hidden sites
And in dangerous heights
You have found only vast misery

Over mountains you climbed
Over oceans you sailed
On the quest for your high destiny
In the deep hidden sites
And in dangerous heights
You have found only vast

Over mountains you climbed
Over oceans you sailed
Though your quest hasn't come to an end
But the true destiny
Lies too close to be seen
You will find it deep inside of your heart


2. Fountain of Youth

The flowers of roses bloom nevermore again
The flowers of roses bloom only for a day
Everything is easy in the spring of life
Questions of the future (are) far away
But the looming winter comes relentlessly
Longing for lost youth grows on and on
Of no avail!
Riding on a journey now for centuries
Searching for a hope for all mankind
Promised is the water of deliverance
Still the secret fountain is concealed
And it will stay!

Rise up high into the glowing sky
The promises unbroken
Rise and fall into oblivion
The doubts remain unspoken

Decades full of wisdom and experience
Memories for one's entire life
Blown away in seconds like an autumn leaf
When they heed the great seducer's call
You stupid fools!

Rise up high into the glowing sky
The promises unbroken
Rise and fall into oblivion
The doubts remain unspoken

Youth is only an illusion
No escape from Father Time
Youthful vigour and attraction
None of this is worth a dime
The flowers of roses bloom nevermore again
The flowers of roses bloom only for a ...
The flowers of roses bloom nevermore again
The flowers of roses bloom only for a day
Rise up high into the glowing sky
The promises unbroken
Rise and fall into oblivion
The doubts remain unspoken


3. The Unforgivable Sin

Where the truth is bigger than lies
You will find deception within
Where the care is only disguise
Lies the unconceivable sin

Never bound to the rules
Never stopped by a bad conscience

Take me away from my sinful existence
Take me away and deliver the world from me

Where the shades glow stronger than light
You'll find only darkness within
Where the Good and Evil unite
Lies the unforgivable sin

Never felt the remorse
Never served a divine order

Take me away from my sinful existence
Take me away and deliver the world from me

I found the abomination
Inside of my wicked soul
In God's self-denying absence
I sinned under my control

Take me away from my sinful existence
Take me away and deliver the world
Take me away from my sinful existence
Take me away and deliver the world from me


4. The Birthmark

Mors ultima linea rerum est
Mors ultima linea rerum est
Mors ultima linea rerum est

A dire shadow has captured my ego
It started harming my confidence
I never doubted my decent appearance
But now I see every single flaw

Merciless attitudes of society take control

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me what you see
All the years gone by I lived cluelessly
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Don't you speak to me?
I can bear the pain and the verity

Mors ultima linea rerum est
Mors ultima linea rerum est

The imperfection has taken my being
Infected even my heart and soul
The inner voices they tell me to counter
And cut the flaws out of my disguise

No remorse, no regret – for the perfect life – perfection

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me what you see
All the years gone by I lived cluelessly
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Don't you speak to me?
I can bear the pain and the verity

The perfect future lies in the present day
We failed to look beyond the clouded scope of time

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me what you see
Your picture is concealed and also shadowy
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Don't you speak to me?
The only voice I hear is insanity

Mors ultima linea rerum est
Mors ultima linea rerum est


5. Castles in the Air

Wide is the mind of the dreamers
Narrow the one of the fools
Stupidity or insanity
Makes no difference from most points of view

What makes a man a believer?
What makes a man just a freak?
If you stand in the row and you go with the flow
You can shelter your madness for good

Higher and higher the endless desire is rising
Higher and higher the venomous fire is burning

Hidden dreams and hidden treasures
Hidden secrets everywhere
In the end you're building castles in the air
Broken hopes and broken pleasures
Broken chances everywhere
In the end you're building castles in the air

Deaf to all serious warnings
Totally blind to the truth
And with every attack there is no turning back
You will tear down the walls of the past

Trapped in a self-made obsession
Of an illusory world
What you tried to achieve was a cruel misbelieve
But you never accepted your fault

Higher and higher the endless desire is rising
Higher and higher the venomous fire is burning

Hidden dreams and hidden treasures
Hidden secrets everywhere
In the end you're building castles in the air
Broken hopes and broken pleasures
Broken chances everywhere
In the end you're building castles in the air

All desires will burst in disorder of ashes and dust
Blinded by greed and evil success
Illusions will fail and fall into the void

Hidden dreams and hidden treasures
Hidden secrets everywhere
In the end you're building castles in the air
Broken hopes and broken pleasures
Broken chances everywhere
In the end you're building castles in the air

The castles are taken down!
The castles are taken down!


6. Fallen Innocence

Behind the mask of a ragged and unsightly creature
Lies a soft nature of kindness and virginity
Physically strong but inside only anxious and fragile
Left to himself in a heartless and ignorant world

What is truth – what illusion?
What is life – in conclusion?
What is love – without heart beat?
What is humanity?

Lively and bright – shimmering flame that is burning inside
Dark as the night – that is the image, the mirror replied
You are safe with the lack of the knowledge of your entity
There is no way to turn back if the innocence will fall from thee

Millions of frauds in the world – arrogant and complacent
Never they see themselves truthfully for what they are

What is truth – an illusion?
What is life – the conclusion?
What is love – without heart beat?
Just inhumanity!

Lively and bright – shimmering flame that is burning inside
Dark as the night – that is the image, the mirror replied
You are safe with the lack of the knowledge of your entity
There is no way to turn back if the innocence will fall from thee

Lively and bright – shimmering flame that is burning inside
Dark as the night – that is the image, the mirror replied
You were safe with the lack of the knowledge of your entity
There was no way to turn back
Once the innocence (had) fallen from thee


7. The Ring

This is a never-ending story
But no fair maiden and no king
Only the jealous human nature
This is the story of the Ring

The Ring was forged in pure affection
But led to pain and broken faith
And here began the long misfortune
The Ring has fallen in disgrace

A pledge of deceit between fellow man
Symbol of faith and betrayal
Used as seduction in every plan
The ancient Ring is still shining...

Bright as a star – red glowing fire
Only the hearts burn in the flames of the Ring

The Ring was strict and unrelenting
And turning passion into hate
As long as man won't stop the craving
The Ring fulfills its given fate

Acts of abuse and adultery
Long is the list of offences
Sinister fortune and misery
The ancient Ring is still shining...

Bright as a star – red glowing fire
Only the hearts burn in the flames of the Ring

Just a deed of charity
Can reverse the sorcery
And the dark infernal red
Turns to pure and sparkling white instead

Bright as a star – white glowing fire
Innocent hearts rise in the shining

Bright as a star – white glowing fire
Innocent hearts rise in the shine of the Ring


8. Another Day

Disappointing failures – painful mistakes
I really tried to stay strong
Visions of the future – confident hope
All my intentions were wrong

Up and down
Round and round
Hit me to the ground

Rise and fall
Through it all
I remain standing tall

Life is only a misery
Wake me up – from reality
Faith and hope, they have gone astray
Wake me up – I can't stand this day

Endless heavy suffering – continuous pain
I can no longer pretend
No apparent reasons – simply bad fate
I really long for the end

Day and night
Keep the fight
It will be alright

Tell me how
Tell me why
I believed this shameless lie

Life is only a misery
Wake me up – from reality
Faith and hope, they have gone astray
Wake me up – I can't stand this day

In the deepest dark the shadows cannot rise

The flame of hope glows hidden to the eyes

Life is only a misery
Wake me up – from reality
Faith and hope, they have gone astray
Wake me up – I can't stand this day

Life is only a misery
Wake me up – from reality
Faith and hope haven't gone astray
Wake me up – on another day


9. The Beautiful

Don't you see the stunning work of art?
Don't you see the beauty in your heart?
Simple are the minds of all the fools
Limited their skills and mental tools

Don't you see the full, entire sense?
Don't you see the touch of innocence?

Narrow minded whiners with their doubts
Unable to be equal to break out

They don't own the power to create
For only the art's sake
The power to create the Beautiful
The art will turn the scales
And lift the hidden veils
The art will turn into the Beautiful

Blessed are the meek with open minds
Blessed are all of those who see the signs

Cast away the limiting control
Free are only the creative souls

Cause they own the power to create
For only the art's sake
The power to create the Beautiful
The art will turn the scales
And lift the hidden veils
The art will turn into the Beautiful

Art is complete
True masterpiece
Beauty revealed
Spirit released

Cause we own the power to create
For only the art's sake
The power to create the Beautiful
The art will turn the scales
And lift the hidden veils
The art will turn into the Beautiful


10. The Final Path

When the shadows appear on the distant horizon
Clouds darken the sky yet still far away
It's a matter of time 'til you're facing the morrow
Try to run faster but there's no escape

Time has no key
Cast is the given lifetime

The broken steps into the darkness
The final path you walked alone
No calming words, no parting glances
Just find your peace where you may roam – all alone

The last fight that we fight it is always the hardest
Never easy but sometimes even unfair
When you notice that winning was never an option
It is mostly too late to break out of the game

Life is the key
Unlock the truthful meaning

The broken steps into the darkness
The final path you walked alone
No calming words, no parting glances
Just find your peace where you may roam – all alone

The broken steps into the darkness
The final path you walked alone
No calming words, no parting glances
Just find your peace where you may roam
The broken steps into the darkness
The final path you walked alone
No calming words, no parting glances
Just find your peace where you may roam – all alone


11. My Haunted Mind

Silence falls from the darkness of the night
I am caught in this moment until dawn's early light
Yesterday's heavy burdens fall asleep
I am bound to the memories that I try to keep

Over and over again

Under the moon
Under the stars
We cannot hide from who we are
Yet darkest dreams let all the demons rise and haunt me

Deep in the heart
Deep in the mind
We cannot leave our fears behind
Yet darkest dreams let all the demons rise and haunt me
My haunted mind

Primal fears are beginning to take shape
I am lost in the moonlight with no chance to escape

Over and over again

Under the moon
Under the stars
We cannot hide from who we are
Yet darkest dreams let all the demons rise and haunt me

Deep in the heart
Deep in the mind
We cannot leave our fears behind
Yet darkest dreams let all the demons rise and haunt me

Out of the darkness
Shadows awake
Shadows escape from
Out of my darkness
Into the night
Darken my light

Under the moon
Under the stars
We cannot hide from who we are
Yet darkest dreams let all the demons rise and haunt me

Deep in the heart
Deep in the mind
We cannot leave our fears behind
Yet darkest dreams let all the demons rise and haunt me
My haunted mind
