A species of violence. Has landed ashore our hemisphere. They're crossing the borders. Their mercyless killers are everywhere. But we're not defenseless.
From a fireball we came crossed sea and mountain. We were drinking beauty with our eyes. We were given all to make our own let us be left alone. Laid the tasks and paid the price, everything survives.
Rays of the sun. Painting the heavens in gold. The killing is over. The knights are heading back. From the cold. A tribute to all those courageous men.
I'm drifting away my systems are failing. I will not return back to my home. To ones I love. I'm fading away. My hopes and my dreams. They will never come true.
[Music by Kustner, Lyrics by Sielck]. . In a forgotten land. where evil is enthroned. the forces gathering. to retake what they have owned. 10.000 men are standing side by side.
Bound to the stars, bound to a land. Unspoiled and virgin. This journey has to end. Out in the cold, lonely we feel. Outcast and homeless. In coffins made of steel.
[Music by Kustner/Sielck, Lyrics by Sielck]. . Up in the skies. the stars are shining bright. on what is called the human kind. in silent majesty. they're watching from up there.
Dream the dream of a distant place. Sheltered and hidden from the human race. Long ago leaving everything behind. Out in the coldness to find peace of mind.
[Beyond the gate lies a universe of darkness and decay. In millions of years the Shadow has extincted and exploited this entity almost completely, and so they are questing for new hunting grounds. It is necessary to find and dis-able the gate, so the mission is to seek and destroy.].
[OK... We could make up a weird explanation of how the lyrics fit into the concept. Fact is they just don't! But we liked the particular sound of the words so much, that we decided to keep them like this anyway...].
I came from far beyond the time. This is my manor. I'm reaching for the crown. And now it shall be mine. This is my realm. From far beyond the time. Out in the vast.
[Music and Lyrics by Sielck]. . Sometimes I dream. of a place to forget. where I would find some peace of mind. but the world just ain't like that. holy wars - armies are marching.
[Hey you shadow bastards! We'll blow your asses out of space and time! Understand?]. . They came to take our land and lifes. To terminate our race. All across the galaxy.
Have I returned from the dead. A lightning was striking my head. Clarity's filling my mind. I am refined. . Unlock the gate to reality. Leaving the maze to be free.
From an ancient past I will bring you the law. To protect and to serve I was made for. My creators have vanished lost in space and in time. I'm the savior device now their battle is mine.
[Like the Jaws of Hell the burning gate glows in unholy light. What horror lies beyond this rip in the continuum? The crewmen know that it is not likely to return, but never say die...].
Hear the stories - of the old. of right and wrong - of bad and good. of bravery - courageous knights. and victory. Men of honor - in brotherhood. true and loyal - sworn in blood.
A pale moon is rising. In silverless grey. It shines on the world. Enlightining the decay. A dead eye that stares at the night. Tainting the skies in unholy light.
Am I alive, do I exist. Am I the goddess of justice. A body of metal, a mind made of circuits. Although I think and I'm conscious. What is my species, where is my soul.
