The Holy Grail

We, together, change the world forever
What a cheerful sound
Synchronize me, supervise me, mother
No more fooling ‘round

Whatever may come it shall be from the ashes
He shall rise, I know

And though it hurts me
Don’t be surprised, dear mother
Longing to see its end

Don’t call it hopelessly insane (oh...)
I go and grasp the grail (oh...)
But in a graceful way (oh...)
Illegally, my aim
The grail will cross the border now

(Don’t tell me that you’re innocent)
(Don’t tell me it’s) divinely ordained by the saints
My demons, my saviors
I weep for (all of them suffered in vain)

My wayward son, you might disturb me
(Carry the flame...)
Till dying embers will stop gleaming
(Carry the flame...)

There on the battlefield she sings – praise, hallelujah
The Holy Grail’s on its way now
(Magna eterna, magna eterna sings)
(Your journey’s over)
(The Holy Grail’s on its way now)

Do as it’s foreseen
Come and meet the king
There’s no choice
For the word it must be real
My righteous brother
Fear you soon will know

So, on the fourteenth day pass over
He took the firstborn sons
Execute him and now act as Judas, the chosen one

So after all, in vain (oh...)
I’ve met him and found the grail (oh...)
Cause in a skillful way (oh...)
I’ll change to keep alive
Eternal lie, I’ll be the one

Key to life, be the eclipse
Voices from the river Styx come to be the Nemesis
Kiss of death
Crucifix and the grail

I’ve traveled far on hidden pathways
(The Holy Grail...)
Who would have thought that I will hold it
(The Holy Grail...)

There on the battlefield she sings – praise, hallelujah
The Holy Grail’s on its way now
(Magna eterna, magna eterna sings)
(Your journey’s over)
(The Holy Grail’s on its way now)

(Don’t tell me that you’re innocent)
(Don’t tell me that) there is a chance to be free
The grail’s sent, my way ends
I creep along with the shadows and resurrected
He comes marching in
There he is – good lord forgive my sins

Once I’ve crossed the river Styx at Sheol’s gate, I know
Key to the apocalypse
I have sealed it with a kiss
Nothing that I want to do
Hades is calling
Wake the witch, who’ll be the brave one?
Don’t say what he’s like
Full of voices comes the ninth wave
Don’t say what it’s like
Beyond the door

There on the battlefield she sings – praise, hallelujah
The Holy Grail’s on its way now
(Magna eterna, magna eterna sings)
(Your journey’s over)
(The Holy Grail’s on its way now)

(Norns are howling)
(Norns are prowling)
