Blind Guardian - Grand Parade

Let the games begin
Watch, my children
Watch them
They all have to die
For this battle is lost

Lost
Losing their minds
Losing their souls
Hush, now hush

We don't talk
We don't care anymore
Would he enter the door
We don't care anymore
There's no more Asylum
There is no Asylum
I would Break through
Now let me through
Try to break free
When you lose, it's gone forever
When you lose, it's gone forever

There's no harm
I will face my demons
Fear is not real
My will is strong
Walk on through
I face the tyrant
Stay where you are
Til the sealing is over

Say goodbye, my friend
Here's your promised end
Be a part of the Grand Parade
Along we're driven
On and on
It's a Grand Parade
We're one
We're so sorry to say
It's all the same, you will see
On this Grand Parade
Damnation
Now join the grand parade

All traps are set
There is only one more
Even time stands still
Just one more door
How could you forget what you came for
There is only one door
Whatever they've offered resist it and enter the door

Now don't look down
It's all going down
The judges frown
Though nobody sounds
Mark the end
The new life will grow
You may cross the end
You should know

No more tears
It's done and it's over
The other one
The other one
The other one will come

Without a sound
It all will go down
All hail to the one

He shall better fail
He shall better fail
He shall better fail
Here again

Oh hail to the one
The one
Along with the shadows
They finally come

We are one
We're the nine

You're the last
The circle's now close here

Things may change
But stay the same
Welcome back
Ignore our warning
Stay where you are
Til the sealing is over

Say goodbye, my friend
Here's your promised end
Be a part of the Grand Parade
Along we're driven
On and on
It's a Grand Parade
We're one
We're so sorry to say
It's all the same, you will see
On this Grand Parade
Damnation
Now join the Grand Parade

Now it all must burn
We have reached the end

Reach the end
Reach the end

Face the end

Sounds like a sermon no more
There is nothing as real as the end

I'm not real I'm a shadow
What you fear is a shadow
A shadow on the wall
Writhing proudly, I'm calling
Bring him down

Here comes the sun

Will we ever see
Will we ever see
Will we ever see with the damned

We are the ones
The chosen one
No Holy son

I'm all there is
There's nothing more
And I hold praise with every dying breath

There on the river Styx
You'll see, my friend
There on the river Styx
You'll see
They've fooled you
To take it away

So what is this
One more twist
It's getting out of hand
And there is nothing we can do

You've solved this riddle but forevermore
You've murdered innocence
There's nothing left you'll see

There is no truth

It's life turned wicked and cruel
You'll be alone

Say goodbye, my friend
Here's your promised end
Be a part of the Grand Parade
Along we're driven
On and on
It's a Grand Parade
We're one
We're so sorry to say
It's all the same, you will see
On this Grand Parade
Damnation
Now join the Grand Parade

Drown one more time
While we all will say goodbye
Bright it shines bright
Let us carry on the lie
No more lies, No more lies
No more lies, No more lies
One more lie
