A shadow from beyond, too frail to stand the sun
and life and death are all the same (to me)
The full moon in the sky may help me for a while
but it’s a dream from where you can’t awake
When sun is on its climb there’s horror in my mind
I fear the light above the mound
I need a hiding place enslaved by evil fate
If I don’t flee my flesh will turn to dust
My face is white as snow, pale as the dead below
but then my eyes are burning red
I caught you by the smell of lifeblood in your veins
Now here’s the kiss of death upon your neck
You have no time to scream or to repent your sins
No absolution, It’s too late
You won’t stay in your tomb, I know that very soon
You’ll share my destiny, you’ll share my hate
(Guitar-solo – Frank, Peter, Frank, Peter)
One night I hear a sound while to my sleep I’m bound
An exhumation is prepared
The father from the church has come to end the curse
He’ll pierce a wooden stake into my heart
But as he’s taking aim the moon is out again
Then even prayers cannot save
‘Cause from the chains of death I am set free again
to haunt you as a shadow from the grave
(Guitar-solo – Frank, Peter, Frank, Peter)
