Song lyrics[edit]

Follow the blind
Your journey, your last hope,
it can begin
These passing dreams were real
no fantasy
There are more things than we know
Come take my hand

All lyrics written by Hansi Kürsch.

Battalions of Fear (1988)[edit]

  • Come to it's world following the sign
    Guardian, guardian, guardian of the blind
    Give us the help, we're waiting for your sign
    Guardian, guardian, guardian of the blind
    • Guardian of the Blind

Follow the Blind (1989)[edit]

  • Follow the blind
    Your journey, your last hope, it can begin
    These passing dreams were real no fantasy
    There are more things than we know
    Come take my hand
    • Follow the Blind
  • Valhalla - Deliverance
    Why've you ever forgotten me?
    • Valhalla

Tales from the Twilight World (1990)[edit]

  • Too much, too much
    you cannot pay with your silver and your gold
    there's just a little chance to save the wizard's life
    there's just a little chance for all you fools
    now pay
    • The Last Candle

Somewhere Far Beyond (1992)[edit]

  • I am lost in the black chamber
    There's no way to turn back
    It takes me down forevermore
    And death would be so sweet
    I'm possessed by the old creature
    Who has planned all
    To take my soul
    Too late for me
    In my hands
    It lies I thought
    But I failed
    Now he's in me

    My soul is lost
    In his black chamber

    I'm gone

    • Black Chamber
In my thoughts and in my dreams
They're always in my mind
These songs of hobbits,
dwarfs and men and elves
Come close your eyes
You can see them too
  • In my thoughts and in my dreams
    They're always in my mind
    These songs of hobbits, dwarfs and men
    And elves
    Come close your eyes
    You can see them too
    • The Bard's Song (In the Forest)

Imaginations from the Other Side (1995)[edit]

  • Do you know if Merlin did exist
    Or Frodo wore the ring
    Did Corum kill the gods
    Or where's the wonderland
    Which young Alice had seen
    Or was it just a dream
    I knew the answers
    Now they're lost for me
    • Imaginations from the Other Side
  • I hope there is a way back
    With my talisman
    So I look into myself
    Into the days when I was just a child
    Come follow me to wonderland
    And see the tale that never ends
    Don't fear the lion nor the witch
    I can't come back
    I'm lost but still I know
    There is another world
    • Imaginations from the Other Side
  • Listen crowd
    I'll tell you everything
    Though I have to say
    I don't know much
    Talking about a past
    And future secret
    Most call him once
    And future king
    Far back in the past
    I saw his ending
    Long before it started
    I knew his name
    He's the one who took the sword
    Out of the stone
    It's how that ancient tale began
    I hear it in the cold winds
  • 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!!
    • The Script for My Requiem
I'm not a king
I'm just a bard
How can I trust
If there is good and bad
The wounds of life
They will remain
At least I found a friend
  • I'm not a king
    I'm just a bard
    How can I trust
    If there is good and bad
    The wounds of life
    They will remain
    At least I found a friend
    • And the Story Ends

Nightfall in Middle-Earth (1998)[edit]

  • I had a part in everything
    Twice I destroyed the light and twice I failed
    I left ruin behind me when I returned
    But I also carried ruin with me
    She, the mistress of her own lust
    • War of Wrath
  • Nightfall
    Quietly it crept in and changed us all.
    • Nightfall
  • How long shall we mourn in the dark?
    The bliss and the beauty will not return
    Say farewell to sadness and grief
    Though long and hard the road may be
    • Nightfall
  • So I stand still
    In front of the crowd
    Excited faces
    What will be next?
    I still don't have a clue
    • The Minstrel
  • I've heard the warning!
    Well curse my name
    I'll keep on laughing
    No regret
    No regret
    • The Curse of Fëanor
  • The moon, the sign of hope
    It appeared when we left the pain of the ice-desert behind
    We faced up to the curse and endured misery
    Condemned we are
    We brought hope, but also lies, and treachery
    • Face the Truth
  • Oh lord here I stand
    Suddenly everything's gone
    For all Noldor
    From now on my life
    Is my gift to you
    Just lead my fate
    To the victory
    Of elves
    • Battle of Sudden Flame
Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord
  • Lord of all Noldor
    A star in the night
    And a bearer of hope
    He rides into his glorious battle alone
    Farewell to the valiant warlord
    • Time Stands Still (At the Iron Hill)
  • High's the fee
    Soon my spirit will return
    Welcome dawn
    Your light will take me home
    • The Eldar
  • Thus he died
    Nom the Wise
    Lord of the caves and friend of man
    Fair, and noble
    Most beloved of the Noldor race
    Paid the price, he redeemed the oath
    Farewell my friend, farewell
    • Nom the Wise
  • Out on the water
    The island of the dead that live
    There they dwelt
    Until they left the world and
    Still their deeds live forth in songs
    • Out on the Water
  • Now truly I am king of the world
    Master of fate
    Damned shall thy house be
    Thou shall not question my power
    Nor shall thou defy me further
    • The Steadfast
  • Thus ends the fifth battle
    By the treachery of men the field is lost
    The night falls and great is the triumph of evil
    The league is broken
    The last vestige of hope lives in the hidden king
    Only he troubles the dark one's mind
    Only he could bring ruin to the black foe
    Though the land lies down in agony and the curse lives on
    A new star shall arise
    And a new day shall come, again
    • Final Chapter (Thus Ends...)

A Night at the Opera (2002)[edit]

  • I turn to you oh my precious Jerusalem
    Deny your prophets their passion and treat them like fools
    I turn to you oh my poor old Jerusalem
    Deny my love but you can't change fate
    • Precious Jerusalem
Proudly it stands
Until the world's end
The victorious banner of love
  • Proudly it stands
    Until the world's end
    The victorious banner of love
    • The Maiden and the Minstrel Knight
  • Day after day we've been fixed in this bowl for so long
    For ages we're captured in shells and crystallized walls
    • Age of False Innocence
  • Well we all know there's no other side
    It's good and evil
    I know right between, there's no borderline
    This is the punishment divine
    • Punishment Divine
  • Still the wind blows
    Calm and silent
    Carries news from a distant shore
    • And Then There Was Silence

A Twist in the Myth (2006)[edit]

  • And from the sea you'll feel me
    And then you'll breathe out gently:
    Leave me
    • Lionheart
  • Your soul's like water but
    Your fate is like the wind
    • The New Order

At The Edge of Time (2010)[edit]

  • Let them curse my name
    On these bloodstained pages of misery
    Let them call me a tyrant so cruel
    Let them curse my name but remember the truth
    • Curse My Name
