[Believers]

Fire falling from the sky

(Rage of God is coming down)

Armaggeddon's drawing nigh

(Sinner cry! Heathen die!)

Hear the toll of pain

(Gloria, gloria)

In the fiery rain

Fire falling from the sky

(Rage of God is coming down)

Armaggeddon's drawing nigh

(Sinner cry! Heathen die!)

Hear the toll of pain

(Gloria, gloria)

Now the time has come

The end's begun

And the only one

Will come

[Gabriel Laymann, the novice]

It has been foretold

By the visions of the old

And the madness in their eyes

Said his angel will arise

That's what they know

Holy Lord it's over, oh God

We have done no wrong

So we go where we belong

To the neverending dream

But for those who lived in sin

They claim to know

Holy Lord it's over, oh God

[Pope Clemens IIX]

Hey Angel, can you tell me?

Will you lead us to the place?

Full of heat, in the fire

For we only brought disgrace

[Lugaid Vandroiy, the druid]

He is not the one

If they only knew

[Johann Adam Von Bicken, the bishop]

Hey Angel, will you take us

To the judgement of his rage

Hey will we die?

For we couldn't close the gate

[Lugaid]

To the knowledge

As they have been told

[Gabriel]

I don't know how could I prove

Nothing but the cloven hoof

Reigning over them as well

While they keep on fighting hell

Babylon the scarlet whore has come

We are the seven

Judgement of heaven

Why don't we know

We are the angels

It's revelation

Soul castigation

Fire will burn us away

[Pope]

Redeemer, devastation

Hope it only has been meant

For the sin of the dreamer

Who broke the law you'd sent

[Lugaid]

He is not the one

If they only knew

[Jakob, the Dominican monk]

Hey, don't know but I wondered

When we lost the seal again?

Maybe stoned by the incense

Do we rise or just descent?

[Lugaid]

He is not the one

If they only knew

[Gabriel]

I don't know how could I prove

Nothing but the cloven hoof

Reigning over them as well

While they keep on fighting hell

Babylon the scarlet whore has come

We are the seven

Judgement of heaven

Why don't we know

We are the angels

It's revelation

Soul castigation

Fire will burn us away

[Voice of the tower]

Woe to you longing for the wisdom

Woe to you longing for the light

All my sons

Bring me back what is mine

Or you'll end

Burning in this night

[Gabriel]

Once I have been lost

In what they told me to believe

Until I felt in burning deep inside

To set my spirit free

And I escaped to another world

To help the little men

Who make me plunge into philosophy

To feel my mind again

No one left to hold me tight

On the real other side

But her in chains

I had been alone till

The madman come along

With the knowledge

And silver long beard

He was the first man ever

Teaching how I could be free

Helping me to find the mind and the soul

They've been trying to hide away

And he promised we'd help Anna

If I'd help him to go all the way

[Lugaid]

Go all the way

Into the world of minds

Open the gate and

Do not close behind

Prevent them from hiding the light away

Prevent them from tellin' us tales

Or the end of all they scare us

With will be a million empty brains

[Gabriel]

I could bring you what you told me

The seal they need

To close the gate forever

But still I haven't found a meaning

Anna will we ever be together?

[Regrin, the dwarf]

You've been fighting for your soul

And sometimes it takes a toll

Hope one day you'll understand

What it means to hold in hands

What they call a fantasy

It is nothing but a key

To the world that now you're in

That they call a wicked dream

[Elderane, the elf]

When you're walking on your own

When you're broken and alone

You may feel us from inside

From the other side of life

Ohohohoh

[Gabriel]

I've been fighting for my soul

And sometimes it takes a toll

Hope one day we'll understand

What it means to hold in hands

What we call a fantasy

But it's nothing but a key

To the world that now I'm in

That we call a wicked dream

Oh, walking on my own

When I'm broken and alone

I may feel you from inside

From the other side of life
