in need

Home was a shelter, now you are displaced
Tools of order that hunt you and chase
Bring the storm for those in disgrace

Now starts the game
And the scene is drowned in grey
Where fate decides who is hunter, who is prey

Our hands were joined, in unity we knelt still
But as a trenchant blade is the world surreal
Our reconciliation burning in my heart
Is now torn apart, like Judas I feel

It's not my will what must be done
I'm not the only one
Oath is the bound that holds me down
A wheel of time signs "the die is cast"
Grinds men into dust
And you shall burn in stake at last

In my wild dreams I hear breaking ice
Water's arms do embrace, baptize
Tongues of fire devour your cries

Life for a life, but its path becomes now vain
Who will hear my pray
Redeemer twice betrayed?

Our hands were joined, in unity we knelt still
But as a trenchant blade is the world surreal
Our reconciliation burning in my heart
Is now torn apart, like Judas I feel

GATES OF FANTASY

Music: Libor Krivak
Lyrics: Petr Kratochvil
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
Falling again into the void and the dark
You’re loosing your dreams,
leaving your longing far behind

Pain! Your heart in flames, your mind in chains
The walls of stone are closing in
Defining all your life

True is what you see, no fear no dreams
Left in the world so grey and mean
Caught in the cage of gold and steel

Fly! Open your mind!
Search for the cure for your imprisoned heart
Keep for you the key
And open wide the gates of fantasy
Live your dreams!

Riding the wind, Wonderland's waiting for you
You walk in your way through the desert of planet Dune

Now your mind is free
To face your fear
To break the chains of slavery
To walk against the stream

All the things you see cannot be real
You’ve got the right to imagine
To dream and follow your dreams

Fly! Open your mind!
Search for the cure for your imprisoned heart
Keep for you the key
And open wide the gates of fantasy
Live your dreams!

Pain! Your heart in flames
Your mind in chains
The walls of stone are closing in
Defining all your life

All the things you see cannot be real
You’ve got the right to imagine
To dream and follow your dreams


BRING US THE LIGHT

Music: Libor Krivak
Lyrics: Olaf Hayer
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
In the ruins of our lives, lost the sense of it all
We have left our dreams far behind
Just awaiting your call
Through destruction and pain we have gone
Always one more step down
Now we see that the time has come
To stop and turn around

The glory of paradise
We’ve already had in our hands
But everything turned to dust
Now look at us where we stand

Give us a sign bring us the light
Give us the answer to all our cries
Take us away far from this live
To different spaces and different times

Don’t leave us here with questions in mind
Bring us salvation and save us from crime
Show us the way out of the night
Save our souls from the beast deep inside

See the cold fear in our eyes
Once our future so bright
Running restless through this time
Our own enemy to fight

The glory of paradise
We’ve already had in our hands
But everything turned to dust
Now look at us where we stand

Give us a sign bring us the light
Give us the answer to all our cries
Take us away far from this live
To different spaces and different times

Don’t leave us here with questions in mind
Bring us salvation and save us from crime
Show us the way out of the night
Save our souls from the beast deep inside


SALVATION DANCE

Music: Libor Krivak
Lyrics: Petr Vyslouzil
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
The signs of running time
Are hollowing your scars
You see an approaching deadline
Things have come too far
Living lane is drowning in grey
Where's the Lord to obey?

In hunger for redemption, saviour you deify
A mirror of reflection, veiling true and lie
You feel great embracing your fate
No more torture untamed

Here marching through time, pied piper arrives
Hear his tune that rules your mind
Salvation in eyes, too late (to) realize
Your life has been sealed by his crime

See rats behind the leader, leaving all estate
It's the nature of a believer, conform to the faith

With fury unbound (you) can't hear the flute's sound
Heading for a rock and fall down

Here marching through time, pied piper arrives
Hear his tune that rules your mind
Salvation in eyes, too late (to) realize
Your life has been sealed by his crime


THE SILENCE - IN SILENCE FORSAKEN (PART II)

Music: Libor Krivak
Lyrics: Tommy König
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
Snowy streets I walk alone, thinking of the past
Now the silence comes to me at last
Washing white the core of me
All the dusk that used to be
Filling up my mind for so long

Snowy streets I walk alone, Thinking of you
What I know is that my heart is true
There's no shadow over me
There is nothing I won't see
Won't live for the past, no!

In silence forsaken... awaken
Hearing echoes of my soul
Retrieving, receiving the meaning
There's an answer once for all

It's not fate that I would fear, not any more
There are thousand reasons to live for
Silence conquers emptiness
He's the Healer, nothing less
Guides me through my way home

In silence forsaken... awaken
Hearing echoes of my soul
Retrieving, receiving the meaning
There's an answer once for all


THE SILENCE - RELIEF REVERIE (PART III)

Music: Ivo Hofmann
Lyrics: Tommy König
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
Then there was a silence,
Broken only by the sound
Of the wind in the streets
And all the pain seemed to be
Drifting away on its wings...


SEARCHING YOU

Music: Libor Krivak and Olaf Hayer
Lyrics: Olaf Hayer
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
And then you walked away just slowly dissapeared
For the rest of my live I'm searching you

Eyes of fire – lips of a queen
Hot desire came over me
I saw you walking down the avenue
And I saw my dreams come true.

You’re the queen of beauty
You’re the sunlight for me
I can only think of you

And then you walked away just slowly dissapeared
And all your traces have been smeared
Now I know definitely what I am gonna do
For the rest of my live I'm searching you

Every morning you’re my first thought
The smell of your hair still fills the air
I see your picture every day,
Every night to God I pray

Will I ever find you?
Will my dreams all come true?
Will this journey ever end?

And then you walked away just slowly dissapeared
And all your traces have been smeared
Now I know definitely what I am gonna do
For the rest of my live I'm sea


EVENING STAR

Music: Libor Krivak
Lyrics: Tommy König
From CD: Voice From The Silence (2008)
I see the light, piercing the night
The evening star, a dark horizon
Oh, it’s so clear, still it’s not near
Shines so far away...

I see the light, burning, so bright
But this time there’s no space for wonders
Yes, it’s all clear, no hope, not near
Lies so far away...

I’ve been counting those passing years, time goes by
Am I foredoomed to loneliness? Won’t you tell me?
I’ve been drowning in my own tears, still I cry,
Feel the presence of weariness… won’t you heal me?

Time goes by mending our hearts
And soothing our minds
Giving us hope that we shall meet
Someday, somewhere

I've been gazing at the stars tonight
Can not reach you there, but still can see your light
My heart is beating, yearning and bleeding
But I know that it's not true I'm forever lost to you

I see the light, burning so bright
A lonely star, a dark horizon
Watching alone, turning to stone
Silent words, I pray

Where is the way? needless to say
That this one only leads to dreaming
When it’s all clear, plain and sincere
You’re so far away...

I’ve been counting those passing years, time goes by
Am I foredoomed to loneliness? Won’t you tell me?
I’ve been drowning in my own tears, still I cry,
Feel the presence of weariness… won’t you heal me?

Time goes by mending our hearts
And soothing our minds
Giving us hope that we shall meet
Someday, somewhere

I've been gazing at the stars tonight
Can not reach you there, but still can see your light
My heart is beating, yearning and bleeding
But I know that it's not true I'm forever lost to you

I’ve been counting those passing years, time goes by
Am I foredoomed to loneliness? Won’t you tell me?
I’ve been drowning in my own tears, still I cry,
Feel the presence of weariness… won’t you heal me?

Time goes by mending our hearts
And soothing our minds
Giving us hope that we shall meet
Someday, somewhere

I've been gazing at the stars tonight
Can not reach you there, but still can see your light
My heart is beating, yearning and bleeding
But I know that it's not true I'm forever lost to you
