Текст песни Animus - Storyteller

Life is my picture book
Only there are no pictures in it.
I'm always fighting
But the shadow kills the light.

I am the naked emperor
Steadfast soldier on duty
Sad improviser
Black cat on the bridge.

My book is mute
Will tell you a fairy tale.
Not understanding a word,
Read everything on the lips.

Look into my eyes
Let the nightingale sing to you:
How you don't want it,
But God will never die.

[Chorus]
Ida, child, you see - the flowers are dancing.
How long is the century of their beauty

I fall asleep under the willow.
And after a thousand years
You will be just as beautiful.
But the shadow kills the light.

You will be a gentle mermaid
To wait for the prince by the shore
Or the queen of the snow
Suffer about your Kai.

Finger matches burn out.
It is impossible to love me.
I humble myself and understand -
I can only be a brother.

The thorny path of glory is hard.
But none of the virgins
A cup of sweet poison
Will not drink with me to the bottom.

[Chorus]
