Album: Savage Poetry (1995)

Frozen Candle


[music & lyrics: Tobias Sammet & Jens Ludwig]

Crying on the pyre, feelin' all so strange
When you took my mind to deteriorate, told
Me that you like me, atrocious and deterrent
Lies, you showed me how it is to suffer hate
Celebrate my funeral, vultures on my corpse
Ashes to ashes - me to hell, you think I could
Be dug alive, but you never knew, you're just
Too deaf to hear my forces yell

All your mind is full of hate, you hold the link
To seal my fate, I stare into the light
Now you'll try to burn me, inquisition in our
Time, but I'll tell you what I am

Burning like a frozen candle
Burning like a frozen candle
I can still remember when you called the reaper
Told him how to unlock my door, sleepers
Nights, evil dreams, faces in the window
Voices that I've never heard before
