[00:00:19] Now this is the right occasion

[00:00:23] For a private conversation

[00:00:28] You know me

[00:00:32] Yes you know me

[00:00:37] Since your childhood we're befriended

[00:00:42] And our friendship hasn't ended

[00:00:47] I promised not to leave you

[00:00:56] I call you in desperation

[00:01:01] Every time this nightmare haunts me

[00:01:06] When it feels like suffocation

[00:01:10] You need me here I am

[00:01:15] The shades of night are growing

[00:01:19] The future has been bought and sold

[00:01:24] The doomsday horns are blowing

[00:01:28] While they're dancing round a cup of gold

[00:01:33] The shades of night are growing

[00:01:38] It is five to twelve our time is getting old

[00:01:48] Have the gods ran out of kindness

[00:01:52] Our ship has lost direction

[00:01:57] Is the helmsman struck with blindness

[00:02:01] He does not even hear me

[00:02:11] On the black sky scarlet letters

[00:02:16] You can read they spell disaster

[00:02:20] Put your horse to waiting fetters

[00:02:25] It's driving me insane

[00:02:30] The shades of night are growing

[00:02:34] As man becomes a beast of prey

[00:02:39] We don't know where we're going

[00:02:43] But we're going faster every day

[00:02:48] The shades of night are growing

[00:02:53] It is five to twelve our chances melt away

[00:03:00] It's all up to you

[00:03:04] So do what you have to do

[00:03:09] Dare take heart to be a rebel

[00:03:14] Rebel

[00:03:16] The shades of night are growing

[00:03:20] One must try at last to turn the tide

[00:03:25] When good and bad are going

[00:03:29] Time is always on the devil's side

[00:03:34] The shades of night are growing

[00:03:38] So stand up and fight and reach out for the light
