Lyrics

Alone in the darkness
I hide from the light
The dark is my fortress
So cold... the night
I've kept the tradition
My fathers held-high
The past is my prison
'Till the day I die

So indicated, and yet - so obscure
Is everything fated ?
How can I be sure ?
Fear's been my kingdom
And hate's been my course
I followed a blind-path;
Blood-stained, with no remorse

I see shadows! are they..
Faces of the past ?
I hear voices ! are they..
Calling from the past ?

Alone with conscience
I ask myself; why...?
But answers are hard to find
I can't break-away from my pride
I only did, what I was taught to be right
As my father would have done
Let "history" be my judge
When I'm long-dead, and gone

I see shadows! are they..
Faces of the past ?
I hear voices ! are they..
Calling from the past ?

Father! it's turned so cold
I see shadows! are they..
Faces of the past ?
I hear voices ! are they..
Calling from the past ?
