Songtext
Ein Band wurde geschmiedet in uralter Zeit
Zwischen Licht und Schatten
Leid und Leid
Prophezeiungen flüstern von dem Tag
An dem das Band der Götter brachWir sind alle verbunden
Im ewigen Spiel
Engel und Dämonen
Mit gleichem Ziel
Das Band der Götter wird neu gewebt
Wenn eine Sterbliche das Schicksal erhebtDie Sterne verblassen
Der Himmel schreit
Das Blut der Erde
Ein Fluss
Der nie verzeiht
Klingen singen Lieder von alter Macht
Doch Hoffnung lebt
Auch in tiefster NachtWir sind alle verbunden
Im ewigen Spiel
Engel und Dämonen
Mit gleichem Ziel
Das Band der Götter wird neu gewebt
Wenn eine Sterbliche das Schicksal erhebtEin Funke brennt
Entfacht die Glut
Durch Asche und Feuer
Neues Blut
Die Ketten zerreißen
Die Winde drehen
Ein neues Band
Aus Sternen gesponnen
Wird entstehenWir sind alle verbunden
Im ewigen Spiel
Engel und Dämonen
Mit gleichem Ziel
Das Band der Götter wird neu gewebt
Wenn eine Sterbliche das Schicksal erhebtSongtext
I was sent to guard your sleep
Not to touch and not to speak
Every ghost in Tokyo knew
The window I was looking through
Every time you dreamt my name
One more feather on the frameLet them take the wings
Burn my name from the scroll
I’m not falling
I’m walking down to you
Bound by heaven’s fall
Bound to youBarefoot on the station stair
Last white feather in my hair
Something underneath the street
Starts to knock beneath your feet
Now hell knows where angels land
And it’s reaching for your handLet them take the wings
Burn my name from the scroll
I’m not falling
I’m walking down to you
Bound by heaven’s fall
Bound to youI never came to guard you
I came to take you up
Your name was on the scroll
For one o’clock tonight
I tore it out. I ate it.
It’s ash inside my throat
So let them send the next one
They’ll have to come through meLet them take the wings
Burn my name from the scroll
I’m not falling
I’m walking down to you
Bound by heaven’s fall
Bound to youNo more feathers on the frame
(bound to you)Gleicher Text wie Stay with me, andere musikalische Fassung.
Songtext
Guess it’s true
I’m no good without you
An angel fell from grace
Now I’m lost in this place
And I know
That you’re the devil I chose
But when you hold me close
Heaven feels like homeOh, won’t you stay with me?
’Cause I’m falling, can’t you see?
Between the darkness and the light
I need you here tonightStay with me
Though heaven says we’re wrong
Stay with me
You’re where I belong
Oh, darling, can’t you see?
I’m bound by heaven’s fall
Stay with me
Stay with me
OhWhy am I
So cursed to need you by my side?
Demons in my head
But you’re the prayer I said
Ancient ties
That bind our fates and our lies
But in your mortal eyes
I see paradiseOh, won’t you stay with me?
’Cause I’m drowning, can’t you see?
Between salvation and the sin
I can’t let you in... but I can’t let go againStay with me
Though heaven says we’re wrong
Stay with me
You’re where I belong
Oh, darling, can’t you see?
I’m bound by heaven’s fall
Stay with me
Stay with me
OhI’m just a fallen soul
(Stay... stay...)
Looking for something whole
(Stay... stay...)
And baby, you’re the light
That leads me through the night(Oh, stay... stay with me)
(Don’t leave me in the dark)
(Stay... I need you)Stay with me! (Stay!)
Though heaven says we’re wrong (We’re wrong!)
Stay with me! (Oh!)
You’re where I belong (I belong!)
Oh, darling, can’t you see? (Can’t you see?)
I’m bound by heaven’s fall (Heaven’s fall!)
Stay with me (Stay!)
Stay with me (Stay!)
Oh!Won’t you stay with me?
’Cause you’re all I need...
Stay with meSongtext
Once I was made of light,
breathing gold into the night,
but the stars forgot my name,
and the heavens closed their flame.Now I wander where the silence grows,
in the shadow where the memory flows,
I still reach beyond the pain —
but the light won’t speak my name.Carry me,
through the hollow skies,
through the ache of a love that never dies.
I have fallen from the grace I knew,
but I still remember You.
Carry me,
through the storm, through the rain,
I have fallen…
but I remain.All the prayers I used to send,
never meant to find their end.
Every word a fragile chain,
woven out of loss and pain.And if angels ever weep,
let them dream while I can’t sleep,
for the truth that burned so bright
is now fading into night.Carry me,
through the hollow skies,
through the ache of a love that never dies.
I have fallen from the grace I knew,
but I still remember You.
Carry me,
through the storm, through the rain,
I have fallen…
but I remain.If the light forgets my name,
will You call me just the same?
When the fire turns to grey,
will You turn Your face away?Carry me,
through the silence and the pain…
I have fallen,
but I remain.
Carry me…
carry me…
home.Songtext
Héllél ben Sáchár – son of the dawn
The mightiest angel, before I was torn
I stood at His throne, His chosen one
Prince of all angels beneath the sun
But mortals... these creatures so fragile and weak
My Father adored them – the love that I seek
Jealousy burned like a venomous flame
Until I committed the sin with no nameFrom heaven I fell through the fire and pain
The one that I loved cast me out in disdainI am the fallen, the bearer of light
Condemned to the shadows, eternal night
My wings were taken, my heart turned to stone
Forever to wander the darkness alone
Lucifer rises – the morning star dies
A crown made of fire, a throne built on lies
I am the death that you fear in your dreams
Nothing is ever quite what it seemsHe stripped me of glory, of everything bright
Transformed me to darkness, the absence of light
Now I hunt through the worlds for the wicked and damned
Their rotting souls crushed within my hand
I throw them screaming to the abyss below
Where endless torment is all they will know
Protecting the mortals I learned to despise
A prisoner of fate beneath bleeding skiesOn my knees I begged for my freedom to come
He offered me mercy – but I wanted noneI am the fallen, the bearer of light
Condemned to the shadows, eternal night
My wings were taken, my heart turned to stone
Forever to wander the darkness alone
Lucifer rises – the monster awakes
Sovereign of death, the ground that he breaks
Rider of apocalypse, ruler of hell
Trapped in this prison, this bottomless well“Fill your heart with love,” my Father once said
“Surrender your immortal life instead”But how can stone feel? How can darkness love?
Freedom means nothing without stars above
I rejected His mercy, I spat on His grace
Now behold the monster that stands in my placeBut whispered in shadows, a prophecy told
Of a child to be born from a bloodline of old
Daughter of Arcadias, bearer of flame
She will speak the fallen one’s true nameWill she be salvation? Or final demise?
The answer lies hidden in her golden eyes
My redemption... my destruction... my fate
I’ve waited millennia – it’s never too lateI am the fallen, but I shall rise
From the ashes of heaven, beneath crimson skies
This heart made of stone will learn how to beat
When light meets the darkness, the circle’s complete
Lucifer kneeling before the dawn’s light
The monster surrenders, gives up the fight
She comes to destroy me, she comes to set free
The angel I was and the demon I’ll beSon of the morning... bearer of light...
Falling forever... through endless night...Gleicher Text wie Heaven's Fall, andere musikalische Fassung.
