A black swan
Is born that night
The misty pond
(Has) got a new king
Got a new king
So what can we do
With our lives
When it all begins
It´s hard and
It´s cruel
Will grace die in pain?
Will light ever rise again?

I´m trapped in darkness
Still I reach out for the stars
I´m moving in silence
I leave it all far behind

[chorus:]
Oh at dawn
I´ll face the edge of thorns
Oh at dawn
I´ll pray at the edge of thorns
Oh at dawn
I´ll face the edge of thorns

Let us march on
To the fields of sacrifice
(I´m) wondering why
I´ll carry on
Will I betray myself
To rise

In the silence
It´s time to explain
(And)
Search for truth in lies
Useful lies
Needless love´s damned

What can we do with our lives
When it all begins

[chorus]

Come follow me
And you will see
How it will be
When all the pain is gone away

[chorus]

Let us march on
Though there´s no hope at our side
Let us be brave
Though by glory we are denied
But
Don´t you think
It´s time for us
To bring to an end
Come play the song of death
The wisdom in us both
Will make it
Special guaranteed
Play the song of death

I´m lost in the depths of his eyes
I can´t flee
Inner pain caused insanity
It´s deep within
The fear and the hunger
Enslaved and denied
By my love and my enemies
I´m the illgotten son

[chorus]
