O me! what eyes hath Love put in my head, Which have no correspondence with true sight; Or, if they have, where is my judgment fled, That censures falsely what they see aright? If that be fair whereon my false eyes dote, What means the world to say it is not so? If it be not, then love doth well denote Love's eye is not so true as all men's: no, How can it? O! how can Love's eye be true, That is so vexed with watching and with tears? No marvel then, though I mistake my view; The sun itself sees not, till heaven clears. O cunning Love! with tears thou keep'st me blind, Lest eyes well-seeing thy foul faults should find. No saviour by my side I feel the utter darkness No phoenix from the ashes The failure of my life Saviour of myself My frame of life is shattered Another sun is rising But solutions out of sight She's entering my mind My face in frozen darkness Would love to touch her cheeks but She's still so far away Hoping for a sign A view with no horizon My cross under the moonlight I'll die here with no sun Love is too young to know what conscience is, Yet who knows not conscience is born of love? Then, gentle cheater, urge not my amiss, Lest guilty of my faults thy sweet self prove: For, thou betraying me, I do betray My nobler part to my gross body's treason; My soul doth tell my body that he may Triumph in love; flesh stays no farther reason, But rising at thy name doth point out thee, As his triumphant prize. Proud of this pride, He is contented thy poor drudge to be, To stand in thy affairs, fall by thy side. No want of conscience hold it that I call Her love, for whose dear love I rise and fall. (additional lyrics from "The dark lady" by William Shakespeare)

Incomplete 07:03
Awakening the lies In front of a thousand faces Depend on winds of time And seek for yourself While all your sins go by But everything's alright Painful in fading memories For hours in her hands Still the vision's incomplete On every single day Far away You're the one to suffer Counting days With all these fears But you love her Awakening the cries Surrounded by watching faces You stare into the night So weak and full of fright The infinity breaks in And everything's alright Caught in the whirl of memories Give hours in her hands I'm a sad man Incomplete is every single way

Black lips, black tears What do you want from me? Black lips and the wrong fears What do you want from me? Black lips and black tears What do you want from me? Black leaves on black trees What do you want from me? Hide away inside myself The whole world burns in my head Cold winds in my face The cold wind is all I feel My hope and the sweet dreams are gone Is it my blood that warms my skin? She will release me from this I feel her she's so near Black lips, black tears What do you want from me? Black lips and the wrong fears What do you want from me? Black lips and black tears What do you want from me? Black leaves on black trees What do you want from me? Hide away inside my fears A whole way ends in my mind Colours are fading away Cold winds in my face Like cold lips on my skin Black tears in my hands I know she does it for love See it so clear Black lips, black tears What do you want from me? Black lips and the wrong fears What do you want from me? Black lips and black tears What do you want from me? Black leaves on black trees What do you want from me? When the lights hurt your shadow Hold up your fears to the light A closer impact of her arrow And your black dreams come alive When the lights hurt your shadow Hold up your fears to the light The sweetest impact of her arrow And all black dreams come alive

Infinity 05:20
Watch him fading so far from here Got no hope, no broken spell Lost A silent fade away Beside the Moon A trap in space Can I fade? Will I fade from here? Can I fade under moonlight Fading here Can I fade? When will I fade from here? Can I fade? The moonlight fades from here Watch the spaceships So far from here Still they're burning - unbroken chains Lost in silence Fade away A lonely sign You see the same Can you break Can you take it from me Can I escape or will I die right here Blind I follow this love I fear Infinity, take my embrace!

Another entrance A different place A bleak garden And a path with no name Don't know what happened Don't know where I am Don't know the stories Don't know where nor when Caught in dark history Bright eyes are searching Following me Caught in the lifetime that she had A lifetime I had passed And everything I'd lost here Has been collected by the stars See the stars I'm feeling lonely I fall in love With silver angels Come shine on me With your ancient wisdom And there'll come a day I'll be crowned, not lonely Should I be free now? But where is she? There are no shackles So what happened to me? Don't know her secrets Do I know who I am? I'm feeling haunted But there's nothing to see Comforting That the stars are there I'm in a maze now But this could be a dream See the stars I'm feeling lonely I fall in love With silver angels Come shine on me With your ancient wisdom And there'll come a day I'll be crowned, not lonely

And she is leading every scene with light So clear in your mind It's cold out in the night And it's creeping through the darkness here From the sewers in the garden And it's cold inside It is cold out in the night It's cold out in the night It's cold out in the night here And it's standing there The ghost in the labyrinth A ghost in the labyrinth A ghost in the night A ghost here in the labyrinth A ghost in the night A ghost in the labyrinth A ghost in the night Fears come over with a yell Somewhere from the garden's magic well Straying through the garden of your dreams The hedges leaving thorns on your skin The way is somehow easier to keep No sounds, no birds, no relief She cries over and again Reaching a pale statue with no name And she is filling every scene with light So clear in your mind It's cold out in the night And it's creeping through the darkness here From the sewers in the garden And it's cold inside She's colder than the night It's cold out in the night It's cold out in the night here And it's standing there The ghost in the labyrinth Fears come over with a yell Somewhere from the garden's magic well Straying through the garden of your dreams The hedges leaving thorns on your skin The way is somehow easier to keep No sounds, no birds, no relief She cries over and again Reaching a pale statue with no name A ghost in the labyrinth A ghost in the night A ghost here in the labyrinth A ghost in the night A ghost in the labyrinth A ghost in the night

Morning comes with frost on snow-white skin Be my lover Be my saviour ...and she steps off her pedestal... With the skin and the beauty of a human being

Blackpool 05:20
You are falling into nothing Through a lightless deep black hole An endless journey through the night A tunnel filled with nightmares But her presence in the storm Is like a fire in the dark You feel that you are drowning In flickering neon lights With her hands on your skin Only in dreams you have been so near Her hair in your face And you're craving for more You are drowning in a blackpool You're falling deep Bones are forming forests In her fragrancy Reaching for the sun But it's far away Hours in her grace Into deeper grey The nothingness surrounds you Tempting with sunny days But indifferent for you The darkness has its sunlight And it's shining through the storm Beyond the colours of your life Welcome a sudden ending In a room you know so well With feet down on the ground Now all is full of light here Caught in her gaze Still you're craving for more You are drowning in a blackpool You're falling deep Bones are forming forests In her fragrancy Reaching for the sun But it's far away Hours in her grace Into deeper grey You are falling into nothing Through a lightless deep black hole An endless journey through the night

Fallen race 04:17
My beloved, come and comfort me I'm overwhelmed by reality Will you invite me to your galaxy? My queen of a fallen race I love these eyes, they don't come frome here So many souls have disappeared Like a war but she comes so clear She's queen of a fallen race She says: I don't come from here Follow me and I will kill your fears Even darkness can give hope to you My queen of a fallen race - I'm coming home - My sweet queen, baby come to me Can you feel what that means to me? Cover my soul with eternity My queen of a fallen race Like a storm, feelings come to me My past has been cut off from me Finally escaped from this agony She's queen of a fallen race Show me the throne of your galaxy Your solar system's where I long to be Please free me from this agony My queen of a fallen race My beloved, come and comfort me I'm overwhelmed by reality Will you invite me to your galaxy? My queen of a fallen race She's the queen of a fallen race Souls cry out her name It seems that there are stars now crying For her fallen reign

King 03:58
She whispers: You could be king Ruler for the moments Master of time And the stars will be you're kingdom Not only for a moment in the night And your crown is for a lifetime A key to your lost ocean and every time If your decision is to be king You'll be able to make moments Last a long time She whispers: You could be king An alliance for a moment To see the light The black tower will be enlighted Unsealed to be your home now In candlelight A whisper for a weak man A 'Yes' just for a romance That's not alive She whispers: You could be king Awaiting your decision Unleash the night

A nightwalk 03:52
The city sleeps Empty streets The wind is playing a symphony I leave the city In the evening glow Won't you take a walk with me tonight? The bright Moon I'm feeling free now The trees move gently in the wind These fields Outside the city They are meaning so much to me Lovely air Is carrying me now My flight over the open sea I feel alive Open minded I feel a kind of sympathy for me Will you take a walk with me tonight? Red wine I taste the starlight And I hike through the open fields Moonlight Illumination The glow of the passing clouds Pleasant warmth Is filling my ocean No worries, no sorrow on my way Gentle darkness No black fears I could go on like this forever Will you take a walk with me tonight? Will you take a walk with me tonight? Come on go for a walk with me tonight Will you take a walk with me tonight? I can't remember when I closed my eyes

Once I saw her on a plain Summer feeling was awaiting Like an angel without a name It was a distant separation You were calling with no voice Time was swirling with no meaning Now I'm drifting through the space Everything's so different to me now Now we're back here on the plain Summer feeling spreads its wings here She's an angel and my queen Just a perfect combination I'm enchanted by her voice Time is swirling with no meaning On our journey through the space Everything's different to me now Why me? Cannot reach what's inside of me Why Do I sleep? Under a veil and your silver wings I see You're a chance for the light in me Alone I seek Oh angel come to me On the shores of love and pain There's a boat for kings and queens now To the halls of hopes and dreams Beyond the depth of deepest oceans There's a castle and a queen And the king is on his way now He is drifting through the space On his way to his big change Why me? Cannot reach what's inside of me Why Do I sleep? Under a veil and your silver wings I see You're a chance for the light in me Alone I seek Oh angel come to me

about

Caught. Suspended. In a weightless room in the light of the Moon, the protagonist is again plagued by travel and dreams, while his senses disappear.
The mysterious Julia is always present, even if she is not physically there.
The trips and this type of torture make it clear to him that he is actually part of something bigger.
Still, he somehow feels incomplete. He has no idea what his Black Tower is and how he can get there.
After many nightmares and knowledge of the infinity in which he is stuck, he finds himself in a garden. Stars seem to light up everything, although it doesn't seem to be night here.
A maze of hedges stretches in front of him, seems to attract him. Guided by an invisible force, he is drawn to the center of the labyrinth.
A spirit, the reflection of himself, encounters it and rekindles its painfully suppressed, constant fear.
Amazingly easy, he makes his way into the center of the labyrinth.
There is a fountain and a statue of a young woman made of white marble. Wearing a tiara on the head.
The statue comes to life and rises from its pedestal. It takes on human form.
It is Julia who rushes towards him and throws herself into the well with him.
There follows an almost endless fall through the darkness and through many universes.Voices, nightmares, monsters pass by.
Still, this is more bearable than torture in the moonlit weightlessness because Julia's presence calms him down.
As he falls, he feels her fleeting touches.
He also realizes through various visions, probably wanted by Julia, that she is the last individual of a fallen race. Their queen.
When both finally reach the apparent bottom of the fountain, the protagonist lies exhausted on the ground.
Julia seems to hover over him, approaches and whispers
in his ear: "Do you want to be my king?"
For him there seems to be no other answer than "yes". The word shoots through his head a thousand times. Julia, whom he has been addicted to for so long, makes him such an offer?
Then why this torture?
Why the sheer endless suffering on the trip here?
None of this seems to bother him at this golden moment.
Deprived of his powers and objective clarity, he agrees.
Was it just a nightwalk through the quiet, softly illuminated streets of the city where he once felt at home?
He found his ocean again.
At least for that moment.
