Excelsis - Before The Storm lyrics

If you think the forest is a mystic place for relaxing

then you are wrong... the forest of Koppigen...

I've been told... this story began on cloudy summernight...

the night before the storm

Before the storm began to break

I walked slowly through this place

leaves whispering in the clouds of trees

it's 1998 and lightning craks near

Before the storm... it's 1998 and I feel fear

[Chorus]

But now, I am struck by a bolt,

deep in my brain, deep in my memories

lost alone in the storm surrounded by lightning

caught in my body and my soul

I feel my body to decompose,

just a little angel pose

climbing plants grab me by the hands...

down in a hole - back in this time

[Chorus]

I wake up, I can't hear the sound of the freeway

where, where, where in God's name am I?

awake in a land filled with scents,

where the good old sagas have been told

from far away a rider comes to me

I think I know him... Kurt was his name

[Chorus]

back in 1298
