The Forgotten Commandment

The seventh seal
has been broken
cold winter winds
blow over dying lands

On the battlefield
you lie awoken
there - pale and grim
the reaper stands

He speaks to thee
with words unspoken
are you truly free?
and a lucky man?

So its written in stone
The forgotten Commandment
for were not alone
we are not alone
and so its written in stone

From holy lands
ancient callings
divine demands
on holy stones

God is dead
his angels fallen
hear my command:
I shall rule alone!

So its written in stone
The forgotten Commandment
for were not alone
we are not alone
so its written in stone
The forgotten Commandment
and we shall live like
kings on our Throne
and so its written in stone

That is not dead
which can eternal lie,
and with strange aeons
even death may die

So its written in stone
The forgotten Commandment
for were not alone
we are not alone
so its written in stone
The forgotten Commandment
and we shall live like
kings on our Throne
and so its written in stone"

[Verse 1]
The seventh seal
Has been broken
Cold winter winds
Blow over dying lands

On the battlefield
You lie awoken
There pale and grim
The reaper stands

He speaks to thee
With words unspoken
Are you truly free?
And a lucky man?

[Chorus]
So it's written in stone
The forgotten commandment
For we are not alone
We are not alone
And so it's written in stone

[Verse 2]
From holy lands
Ancient callings
Divine demands
On holy stones

God is dead
His angels fallen
Hеar my command:
I shall rule alone!

[Chorus]
So its written in stonе
The forgotten Commandment
For were not alone
We are not alone

So it's written in stone
The forgotten commandment
And we shall live like
Kings on our throne

And so it's written in stone
It's written in stone

[Bridge]
That is not dead
Which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons
Even death may die

[Chorus]
So it's written in stone
The forgotten commandment
For we are not alone
We are not alone

You're not alone
You're not alone

So it's written in stone
The forgotten commandment
And we shall live like
Kings on our throne

And so it's written in stone

[Songtext zu „Das Elfte Gebot“]

[Strophe 1]
Die letzte Schlacht ist geschlagen
Bleigrauer Dunst zieht über ödes Land
Schon liegst du da auf einer Barre
Neben dir grinst der Sensenmann
Er spricht zu dir, fragt nach der Wahrheit
Wie's dir so geht und ob du glücklich bist

[Refrain 1]
Denn das Elfte Gebot gebietet zu leben
Als wartet morgen der Tod, morgen schon der Tod
Ja so steht's im Elften Gebot

[Strophe 2]
Der Gebote zehn, in Stein geschrieben
Der Gevatter spricht sein Strafgericht
Gott ist tot, nur ich bin geblieben
Und mein Gebot das Elfte ist

[Refrain 2]
Denn das Elfte Gebot gebietet zu leben
Als wartet morgen der Tod, morgen schon der Tod
Ja, das Elfte Gebot gebietet zu lieben
Und zu verglüh'n in Flammen lichterloh
Ja so steht's im Elften Gebot
Das Elfte Gebot

[Bridge]
Es ist nicht tot, was ewig liegt
Bis dass die Zeit den Tod besiegt

[Refrain 3]
Denn das Elfte Gebot gebietet zu leben
Als wartet morgen der Tod, morgen schon der Tod
Schon morgen der Tod
Schon morgen der Tod
Ja, das Elfte Gebot gebietet zu lieben
Und zu verglüh'n in Flammen lichterloh
So steht's im Elften Gebot
