Edguy - The Kingdom

Watching the eventide
The sun will hide and sleep
My heart's beat is slow.
I'm thinking about my belief
Rain washing over me
Cleaning up my brain
Till I question all my thoughts
And clean'em up from stains
Clean'em up from stains
Clean èm up from stains, yeah
Die free, yeah!

Welcome to the circle
Of those who know their way
Welcome to those
Who`ve realized their needs
Who don't need fear to pray and betray

But they don`t accept
Us living free
Believing what we need
Haven't heard anything about poetry
They only know their painful greed

Don't ever trust those
Who say they know
Those who show
And force you to bow
I've done no wrong
But to ask my brain
To be free from pain
Built up by those who reign

A mind in disguise, now I know
It's better to hide my belief
Than feeding the crow
A life on the run, now I know
The kingdom of disguise
Is the last place to go

In the eyes of the world
I'm a master of heresy
Swimming against the tide
Endangering democracy
I remember the day
When I was young and bold
When I thought that my mind was free
Until the time that I was told

Out in the night they laugh about me
And my knowledge and
Speak prayers
Our God don't want to hear, but listen
Wherever you are, I will get you!
Well, you don't know who I am?
I am the inquisition and I am your heretics
Barbarian end!

Beware and be silent and follow the sign
Keep the mission
As a secret of your mind
One out of a million
Is a friend of your line
Don`t forget there are evil eyes behind

Holding the candle
She was found in the rain
Bright eyes and blissful but they thought
That she went astray
Too late to escape
She seemed to be insane
She got imprisoned
Because she got her own way

Inquisitor: Now can`t you remember?
What have you done?
Accused: Believe me, I'm innocent. I've done no wrong!
Inquisitor: But you are strange! You are guilty I guess!
And after the torture you will confess
And burn!

Ending in the flames,
Burning down her fame
Prayers to the saints,
Their end of an evil game

Run to your last refuge
Maybe the silence of your voice
Lie but be true to yourself
Sometimes you`ve got no choice
Follow a king called silence
Live in his kingdom of disguise
There is a temple of shelter
Where God forgives you your lies.

I can see it bright here
In front of your eyes
The apparition never dies
Yes I see, yes, I feel
Yes, I know it all
