The King for a 1000 Years Lyrics


"Forgotten in his reich of shadows - banned forever, one thought -

the lord of evil was given name and place

of the seventh sea, shelter of the seventh key.

Who was betraying us? I guess you know!

There would be more than one name to name!

Now he, whose name is Many, searches for the one...

The one strong enough to survive as his terrestrial hand.

Enticement and promise will crown a king -

A puppet on a string - for a 1000 years... so they sing..."

Wouldn't it be nice to plunder with your eyes

Whatever there's for you to see is yours to be

Let me be there, just tell me you don't care

Just say you pay me after life, however high the price

I know your secrets, I know it all!!!

I know your secrets, I see the hidden without light

I am your sickness biting you right behind your eyes

Don't try to kill me - I cannot die a death you know

You and I will be heaven above and hell below

Brother...

| Believe me

Father...

| Conceive me

Brother...

| Believe me, perceive me

Time will be a turning wheel we shove or retard

Time will be a toy, time we will enjoy

Say you want to live forever minus one day

Say you will obey and I...

I will show, I will show

I will show your reich of gold

And I will show, I will show

I will show you friend and foe

Wouldn't it be nice to reign and to decide

Whatever there's attracting you - will give its due to you

Let me be there, just say you want to share

A power no one will understand - just be my human hand

I know your secrets, I know it all!!!

I will show, I will show

I will show your reich of gold

And I will show, I will show

I will show you friend and foe

| No believers - all deceivers

| No illusions - executions

| Alienation - elimination

| Chaos - no exoneration

| No believers - all deceivers

| No illusions...

-- Executions

We are king for a 1000 years; we are king of a million tears

We're the ones who bring desire blinding their greed and fears

We are king of fallen men

We are keepers of the damned turning hope into obsession

We are the king; we are the king for a 1000 years

Ages of fire - aeon of darkness, fear and hate

Wake up my creatures, stand up you bringers of man's fate

No one can kill us, we cannot die a death one knows

Mankind is sleeping - my victory near, their end so close

I know your secrets, I know it all!!!

| Goodbye, sorrows

Borrow me your hand to turn the key

| Release me, believe me

| Goodbye, sorrows

Never more you have to fear futurity

| Goodbye, sorrows

Borrow me your hand to turn the key

| Conceive me

Time will be a turning wheel we shove or retard

Time will be a toy, time we will enjoy

Say you want to live forever minus one day

Say you will obey and I...

I will show, I will show

I will show your reich of gold

And I will show, I will show

I will show you friend and foe

We are king for a 1000 years; we are king of a million tears

We're the ones who bring desire blinding their greed and fears

We are king of fallen men

We are keepers of the damned turning hope into obsession

We are the king; we are the king, the king for a 1000 years

The king for a 1000 years!!!
