Keeper of Time - Eternal Champion Songtext
von Manticora

Life as a soldier was all too easy for me
To eradicate and annihilate fit my identity
Raised as a fighting machine, to destroy the enemy threat
Suddenly and with no sense you came with the bloodshed

Sons and daughters of war, I have witnessed the creature
I can′t control anymore
Fell in love with a girl of the future
Now talk to me, teach me
War lovers we will be!

You made a difference in the chaos I saw
You gave me a reason not to fight anymore
In between rage and sudden death
You gave me hope - you stole my breath

Brainwashed in the art of war I've got the will to fight on
All sense of humanity is a history long gone
Following the orders - no remorse or no fear
You appeared to me
Like a mad dream here


Then you came from a distant unknown
In between dream and reality
Fighting together from time to time
Now talk to me, teach me
War lovers we will be!

You made a difference in the chaos I saw
You gave me a reason not to fight anymore
In between rage and sudden death
You gave me hope - you stole my breath

I met you in your past but in my future in a meeting still to come
And listened to your whispers
You had a voice that made me numb

Your eyes blazed like jewels in the sun
As you whispered in my ear
"I′ll take care of you my love
You've got nothing to fear"

When morning came (morning)
We kept each other perfectly warm in the chilling breeze (sand)
Constantly sand or snow tore at naked walls
Your voice burred with the hint of an accent unknown (unknown)
Constantly sand or snow tore at naked walls (sand or snow)
In a time of passion I close my eyes and see (passion)


Bodies burning in the solid laser light
Heat of plasma explosions as I try to survive the night
Fireballs enlarging as I lie among the dead
More dead to come as suns explode in ruby red (the dying worlds!)

Star systems, extinct in spasms of deadly fire
Thickened air itself aflame as I can't control my desire
Seas of superheated air rise in vast pulses of flame
Blazing in mad heat - you brought a war
From where you came (the dying worlds!)

You made a difference in the chaos I saw
You gave me a reason not to fight anymore
In between rage and sudden death
You gave me hope - you stole my breath
