LYRICS:

"Demetrius"

In a circle of fire
On a cold winter night
I spoke out my desire
Made a promise I couldn't hide ,no

In a dream 
he came along and told me
Your time has come
Your mind belongs to me

It's the time of the oath
The time of the oath
My sweetest memories 
Die in the cold
It's the time of the oath

See me covered with sadness
And I'll soon wish to die
When the overcomming madness
Is eating up mind mind ,oh

Here and now
I know that had a good time
No more lies
I slowly say goodbye

It's the time of the oath
The time of the oath
My sweetest memories 
Die in the cold
It's the time of the oath

Yeah, yeah

In a dream 
he came along and told me
Your time has come
Just slowly say goodbye

It's the time of the oath
The time of the oath
My sweetest memories 
Die in the cold
It's the time of the oath
The time of the oath ,yeah
My sweetest memories 
Die in the cold
It's the time of the oath
