Violent Shadows (Wacken World Wide live performance) Songtext
von Blind Guardian

Don′t turn away
Don't close your eyes in false pride
Will you protect the light?
Reflect or shine, that′s your choice
We're heading straight into damnation
For an unknown God
It needs a lion heart
It needs a pure soul
Or we're condemned

I will not surrender, let it be
I will not surrender

Now bring me your sacraments
The dead will not complain about it
Time it makes no difference
No difference
That′s why we should never cross the water
We ride into the raging storm
Hatred′s never ending


Take us to break free
Skydancer
Down where the violent shadows breed
Hide in the underworld
Skydancer
Hide where the violent shadows creep

Drown your pride, young slave
Obey your master (master, master)
That's all I can teach
Obey your master

Now bring me your sacraments
The dead will not complain about it
Try, it makes no difference
No difference
Come out and believe it
Now bring your precious daughter
Get out
Reach out and believe it
Now listen and

Take us to break free
Skydancer
Down where the violent shadows breed
Hide in the underworld
Skydancer
Hide where the violent shadows creep


Now bring me your sacraments
The dead will not complain about it
Cry, it makes no difference
No difference
A bridgeman should never cross the border
Now come and face the raging storm
Hate it′s never ending

Take us to break free
Skydancer
Down where the violent shadows breed
Hide in the underworld
Skydancer
Hide where the violent shadows creep

In violent shadows we're all condemned
In violent shadows we′re all condemned
In violent shadows we're all condemned
In violent shadows
