The script for my requiem

Hallowed be the fatherland
God he knows
How long I´d been away
From here I did start for the search so
Full of disease
I still hear my cry outs
From the old cellar´s inside
Born in the days of medieval
My inner voice
Is always asking why
I came from nowhere
Without a task, without a name
Don´t fear my evil
Fate, so god please lead me through
Forgotten realms
Mysterious dreams
In sunless rooms I´d sworn
I´ll finish what I started, once
I´ll find the holy grail
In the holy land
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
The jester´s tears
They are inside me
Agony´s the script for my requiem
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
Is the script already written
Jester´s tears I cry
Yes, I cry
I went out of my mind
In desert lands
Insanity´s pawn
Out of control
Much too long I´ve been isolated
From my thoughts
Enclosed by the leader´s spell
Bewildered to march
As a glory knight
And I tried
Still I hear the scream of thousands:
"Crucify, crucify!!!
Take it all
Our gold, our homes, our life,
But we didn´t kill your Christ!!
Reach out for your holy grail
Enslave us and make us
Your god´s sacrifice!!
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
The jester´s tears
They are inside me
Agony´s the script for my requiem
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
Is the script already written
Jester´s tears I cry
Yes, I cry
[SOLO]
Still I´m confused
If I was dreaming
Too late I realized
I´d been another fool
I pay the price,
I pay the price.
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
The jester´s tears
They are inside me
Agony´s the script for my requiem
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
Is the script already written
Jester´s tears I cry
God he knows
How long I´d been away
From here I did start for the search so
Full of disease
I still hear my cry outs
From the old cellar´s inside
Born in the days of medieval
My inner voice
Is always asking why
I came from nowhere
Without a task, without a name
Don´t fear my evil
Fate, so god please lead me through
Forgotten realms
Mysterious dreams
In sunless rooms I´d sworn
I´ll finish what I started, once
I´ll find the holy grail
In the holy land
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
The jester´s tears
They are inside me
Agony´s the script for my requiem
Returning of the miracles
It´s my own requiem
