Krabat Liederreihe 1 (Krabat Songset 1) Songtext / Lyric

Obey the voice
the master?s [voice], obey it
Obey the voice
the master?s, obey it I followed the master?s call
The voice magically allured me
the hoarse call in the night
in dream he put me under his spell
finally, I open, with clammy
sweaty hands, the door
to the secret black chamber
and the master speaks to me
he asks me ?what shall I teach you??
?milling [->miller?s work], as well as the other things??
He offers me his left hand
I shake it, as it?s the rite So I grow crow quills
and I fly, anonymous
beyond borders, into life
like the wind across the land
and I break all rules
to be with you tonight
Feel my raven?s heart, it beats so
fast and just for you, for you alone

Give you a raven?s feather
Our love?s pledge
Remember me, I will come back
Remember me, when you hold it[the feather] in your hand

Obey the voice
the master?s, obey it
Obey the voice
the master?s, obey it
Obey the voice
the master?s, obey it
Obey the voice
the master?s, obey it

He says: ?Yes, now you are mine?
?With neck and crop, you are mine?
I wanted to flee, in fear
His gaze sets my teeth on edge
With one eye now he detects
you, you want to die, in fear
The other [eye] covered by a plaster
Black, still able to see everything
I feel so terribly naked

Spell and more spells
he keeps reading from the Koraktor (->book of dark magic)
White writing on black papers

So I grow crow quills
and I fly, anonymous
beyond borders, into life
like the wind across the land
and I break all rules
to be with you tonight
Feel my raven?s heart, it beats so
fast and just for you, for you alone

Give you a raven?s feather
Our love?s pledge
Remember me, I will come back
Remember me, when you hold it in your hand

Where did you fly?
His gaze keeps searching for you everywhere
I draw the circle around us
But it pulls me back again
Listen to your master?s voice
Obey, he catches you anyway
He will find you and you know it
Only my heart cries louder
for you

So I grow crow quills
and I fly, anonymous
beyond borders, into life
like the wind across the land
and I break all rules
to be with you tonight
Feel my raven?s heart, it beats so
fast and just for you, for you alone
Give you a raven?s feather
Our love?s pledge

Remember me, I will come back
Remember me, when you hold it in your hand
Remember me, I will come back
Remember me, when you hold it in your hand

Remember me, when you hold it in your hand
