01. Ravenheart

 Come to me, Ravenheart
 Messenger of evil
 Come to me. What´s the news?
 Here I´m still left lonely

 You shadow of forgotten dreams
 You come to take away 
 My hope on your black wings

 Of love & hate the singers tell
 But I feel more, more of both,
 More than heaven & hell.
 I take a bow to destiny
 Now I have really learnt my part
 Once loving him, now hating love
 I´ve made mistakes, my Ravenheart

 Will I get back who I adore?
 Thus spoke the raven: nevermore.

02. The Lioness

 Cerulean sky over desert fields and sand veils
 And underneath a lioness is stalking narrowing rings
 Feel her coming near, she smells the blood, her prey is near
 So see her, hear her, feel her, be her

 The Lioness is hunting us
 So beautiful and dangerous
 Her embrace is murderous
 Beware of the Lioness

 Do you feel her gentle touch
 Her sweet caress hurts just as much
 So take care, take care of her
 The lioness will win

 So close you hear her purring
 So close she smells your fear
 Not close enough to lose yourself
 Beware – the lioness is near 

03. Back To The River

 I can recall my name – but I was not the same
 I fear I´d gone astray – I've almost gone insane

 Sometimes I still can hear – echoes of silent fears
 But on that winter´s day – you swept them all away

 These were the times when I longed for the river
 And I closed my eyes and you laid your hands down on me

 Not just a burning sin – a candle in the wind
 It was so much more – I want to thank you for

 I can see you, still my friend
 Still so deep inside of me

 You filled my void, you let me fly
 You broke my chains, you showed me life
 You set me up, you made me true
 I was back at the river with you

04. Eversleeping

 Once I travelled 7 seas to find my love
 And once I sang 700 songs 
 Well, maybe I still have to walk 7000 miles
 Until I find the one that I belong 

 Once I crossed 7 rivers to find my love
 And once, for 7 years, I forgot my name
 Well, if I have to I will die 7 deaths just to lie
 In the arms of my eversleeping aim

 I will rest my head side by side
 To the one that stays in the night
 I will lose my breath in my last words of sorrow
 And whatever comes will come soon
 Dying I will pray to the moon
 That there once will be a better tomorrow

 I dreamt last night that he came to me
 He said: "My love, why do you cry?
 For now it won´t be long any more
 Until in my cold grave we will lie"

05. Fire Of Universe

 I clench my fist and break my chains
 Destroy the mirror of tears
 I force the night to smash you down
 And lose my innocence (I´m)

 Blinded by the fire of universe
 I´m falling down, no reverse

 I can´t rewind my life to then
 When I was dreaming of warmth
 You took away the child I´ve been
 And left me frozen (and)

 Rewind rewind to then…

 I´m an angel
 Born from the breath of life
 An Ikarus 
 Burning and falling down

06. Some Like It Cold

 Glamourous stars darken the day
 The shadows of night lighten their way
 The wisdom of fools is not easy to learn
 So go one step ahead and two in return

 I am the sense in all of your tears
 I am the reason of all of your fears

 I am praised for my sadness
 I am praised for my faults
 I am praised for my madness
 Cause some like it hot
 And some like it cold

 Evening calls the sunset to rise
 I am a liar so take my advice
 The wheel of fortune always goes round
 Whatever goes up must always come down

07. Answer

 We fought the truth 
 As long as we lived our love
 Fearing all the solutions we found
 We drowned ourselves
 In the lake of tears that we cried
 'Til we found out that love is its ground

 Call me a fool, but I´m not
 Our love changed – and love changed me

 I kept waiting for your answer
 Then I found out the answer was you
 No more riddles of my longings
 Now I know that the answer is you

 I want to thank you, my creator
 I still wouldn´t live my life without you

08. My Scarlet Name

 Take my life and paint it black
 Until I´m sleeping
 And my promise, I take it back
 So please stop creeping

 I don´t call your heart my own
 Where I rest my head I´m home
 You are here to please me

 You know my name
 I don´t know yours

 Stay until the curfew calls
 And kiss your idol
 Beneath your black-hair waterfalls
 You look so bridal

 You know my name
 You don't know …me

09. Snow-White

 Once upon an ancient time
 Beauty was born in a someone
 She was the Snow-White of mine
 And if you´re no copy, my darling, become one

 Snow-white skin, Ebony hair
 And lips as red as blood

 Bite my apple, choke on my kiss
 Gasp for breath in my embrace
 Vanity is a bliss of amazing grace
 Snow-White, untouchable
 Innocent whore, you´re the best of them all

 You are the best, yes I adore
 My bloodred, snow-white, ebony whore
 Your innocence moves me to tears
 I want to protect you and hurt you my dear

10. Black Flame

 Incinerate my skin
 And touch me far far beyond
 Burn me out, my sin
 And take me deeper underground
 I know it´s way too late
 When this dance has begun
 So put on the heat
 And let the fire run

 Take me away, my black flame

 Immaculate you are
 In your tender violence
 And when you touch my heart
 I´ll always lower my defense
 Don´t let me wait too long
 Cause I don’t like to be save
 We know we can´t go wrong
 On our way through time and space

 Take me away, my black flame

11. Too Close To Breathe

 We played with fire
 Burning souls in the flames
 Call me a liar
 But now it´s not the same
 Silently creeping
 Soon we were torn apart
 By what once was sleeping
 In the shadows of my heart
 - forgive me – 

 Too close to breathe he came to me
 Under my skin, making me high
 I didn´t look for what I see
 To less to live too much to die
 - of love

 Heart, don´t believe
 You don´t remind me of 
 Joy & grief
 Though both they´re gone
 You left me grey and without a core inside
 And I left myself by leaving you angry this night
12. Keep My Secret Well

 Keep my secret well
 Like my eyes keep their tears
 It´s raindrops on my face
 A thunderstorm has led me here

 Keep my secret well
 Like my lungs keep on breathing
 Until I close my eyes
 The last time it´s beneath me

 For in the case all is past and gone
 I´ll keep my smile and carry on
 Don´t ask for more

 Keep my secret well
 See how deep I fell
 Keep my secret well
 And I won´t ask you for more

 Keep my secret well
 Like my veins keep my blood
 No wound can be as deep
 As the love that I had
