We behold the gates of Heaven bathed in the glory of the mystery We will rejoice together but suddenly the gates were shut What a very strong expression of an uncommonly and hearty welcome ONE OF YOU IS FLESH OF THE DEVIL said the man at the head of the stairs GOD GIVE US YOUR GLORY WE ARE WEAK AND THIN AND PALLID YOU HAVE NO BOUNDS But for many days the sun rose and sunk and rose and sunk again and when the men started to despair… the sound of footsteps of the stairs made them cry, made them laugh, made them stare into the sun Hail to the King, hail to the light , there was that merry old gentleman IN HORA MORTIS – MEDICUS! ORA PRONOBIS – SUUS NON AGNUS LIBERANOS SEMPER – NON EST DEUS VIRGO GLORIOSA – AB INFERNO ANIMA MUNDI – ET PECATORUM FLESH OF THE DEVIL – AD INFEROS

Alone with my sadness , enclosed to the pain You gave me the sunshine when I only have rain So cold , fallen apart You have been my only will to live A tree that looks at god all day Branches rising high to pray Will anybody speak of this the way the flowers would? Our paths once were broken and you had to leave My eyes are wide open and look at the sea When I told you goodbye I sent my own heart to die Loved you once (I always will) I love you dear (my heart still bleeds) Love is just a gentle embrace (forever in my heart you will always be) When I hear the angels sing you are here In this time of the season the sky was blue My rose garden looks like cristalbelle Those echoes of Winter, they are warning you (3) The sun through curtains glows Are you in that distant spot my love? Mountain snow (freezing me) I dont think (you would ever feel) The pain that I feel for you (and still I would choose you in a hundred lifetimes) In this time of the season the sky was blue Where shall we go when its just us two? Those echoes of Winter, they are warning you (4)

Kids: Help us find the man, Mr. Holmes, They never will Scothland Yard ignores this wound that never heals Mrs. Hudson: Beggars are not choosers but beggars also bleed Holmes: Love is for the ladies, pain is for the whores Irene: (from the door) How can you say that, Sherlock? Kids: Every second matters, Mr Holmes You are all we need Holmes: Nobody messes with the kids from Baker Street Kids: The main institutions see this as some kind of - divine - punishment. Mrs. Hudson: Mr. Holmes, would you hear? Kids: Before social services will tear brothers apart. One of us today, maybe one of yours tomorrow! We are your eyes and ears in the streets of London - 6 a week!!! Watson: Life is a mixture made of love and pain, my Friends. A futile warfare it seems to me, in this destiny we are united against one common enemy. All: Mr . Holmes!!!

A man swamped in intellect, wizardry thinker and a brain of the first order I always find myself surrounded by the people that can be manipulate In every conquest find a way to be victorious I have no reasons to be gross but I confess that I crave your skull I tell you falling is like flying but knowing where you go I´ll decline to end the world as long I get to ending yours Chorus: And that´s why all the king have horses I think it´s plain to see he who many horses has he would be seen as an equal to me that´s why all the kings have horses I find it plain to see he who many horses has he will be seen as an enemy to me You haven´t convinced me yet I have exhibited to you I thought I would Will you tell me whom you suspect The brutal murders lead to your address Click track: 70 (Guitar & keyboards solo) Mr Hyde (Jonas Hansson): Keep your story for yourself and get the rabbit on the run Sinister in the highest degree I confess you have touched my soul Antagonist – your intellectual equal You can´t teach a bird to fly Try your best with Dr Jeckyll I wasn´t born to hide!!! (Violin solo) Chorus: And that´s why all the king have horses I think it´s plain to see he who many horses has he would be seen as an equal to me that´s why all the kings have horses It´s very plain to see he who many horses has he will be seen as an enemy to me

Why is that that someone - can make your heart go wild? She just seemed to shine in all she did… Beautiful and funny - and gentle was the girl, She asked me to marry her… Chorus: It was the worst - sinking feeling - I had ever felt This time up there - I met the lady - who changed my mind forever… Coldness under pressure - always appeals to me But things didn´t quite go to plan… I have found my value - Deep into my soul And this is what - frightened you Chorus: You played with me - just like the wind does - with the autumn leaves All is not lost - when love, for me, - has never been enough So many times - I explored this feelings - trying to understand I know the dark - will always die - defeated by the dawn.

Intro: Walking in the shadows I try to leave the world behind I try to leave it all behind Hidden in disguises, oh Do you see me like a man? Do you treat me like a man? My name means nothing to you My mind will see the things through Beaten by a woman´s wit I was eclipse to your sun Just a bit undelicate Have you ever had anyone? When do you want us to leave? Dirty Word is puberty I was the model for this one Can you see the resemblance? Freud just wants to see me again But I am colly making plans That can be magnificent My name means nothing to you My mind will see it all through First Change: I wanna see you, just like an addict You never let me down I was then so innocent You gave my heart a shelter I am not an addict, I am an user Murder is my corpse You may speak in front of me I am always in my own Shell (Chereene solo) Second Change: Just like a child, I suddenly needed you, Trembling like a coward And, like a child, I started a battle, you told me from the start But I want get close to you, storm you through, Take your hands and leave it all behind Who is behind the mastermind? Solving crimes I am sure that we can pass the test of time Feel me… feel me… The Hall of Mirrors Section: I – surrender to your secrets I – surrender to the feeling Ah – would you come to me now? Ah – you know I am true Wich one it´s you? I – surrender to the secrets I – stop resisting to my feelings Ah – you look so close to me now I – can´t see through you Wich one it´s you? I – can see you inside the mirrors My – eyes - start feeling the dismorphia Ah – will you reach out for me? Ah – please, set me free Oh, set me free Finale: Walking in the shadows I try to leave my world behind.

I invite you to the shadows All that glitters is not gold Come and learn from our desire I cut through the same air as you As the night will turn electric aha Beneath a shattered gold sky aha Life is the night with dream visions Precious baby that you´ll ever see Have you ever gone outside at night And stared up into space? I refuse to live my life lightly aha Shadows were born from an angel (of light) Who got turned into darkness The crownless again shall be the King aha We stand in a timeless moment When the Winter nights are colder There is knowledge to be exchanged From this place that now we call home

Sherlock: Helpless child, - the night is closing in now, I tried to teach you – how to look inside yourself But all the time – your head is getting heavier The long day´s pleasure – but stil I´ll love you to stay… Watson: If I should have that courage – All that’s needed to stand tall Then things would be more easy - I would not be phased at all What if our choice is wrong and we should fail to make our stand Then everyone of us would feel the guilt of bloodied hands The brave man journeys straight and leaves the timid far behind As stalkers lie in shadows - wait to stab me in the spine There is no greater act for me but sacrifice my life I see the venom as it drips upon that deadly knife! Sherlock: Courage – is the will to live Cast: always inside of us Sherlock: wáter to a seed Sherlock: we know – two paths wait for us Cast: Success or dissaster Sherlock: you are here with me… Sherlock: There are – gatherings darkness Cast: let the light that we shine – dissolve it all Sherlock: Armed with a smile- I will fear no more Cast: Victory over dark – love instead of hate Sherlock: Our strenght pushes forward We are all given the right weapons We are the thinking machines Cast: (Here we come – here we are) Sherlock: lets resolve these gaslight crimes – our time is running out so fast We are what we want to be Cast: (Now´s the time and here we are) (Now´s the time and here we are) Sherlock: we are what we want to be! Cast: In this dark we bring a light that is brighter than the sun Into the hell we go Sherlock: (Bring a light so bright!!!) Cast: Into the dark we´ll shine a light that is brighter tan the sunlight Into the hell we go!!!! (Justice to be made

Through the mist and the silence Along this dark road we go Singing Deep in the sadness Happiness we´ve never known (we´ve never known) Nervious, trembling and stumbling Along this dark road we crawl We must blossom as men now But we are only sons (we are only sons) (we are only sons) Should we learn to kill before we learn to live? And strive to turn the streets of London into a safer place Into a safer place (a place to live) (a happier place) We are the flower of Britain just starting to breathe (Begin today a new tomorrow!) Face the brighter day! Forge a brighter fate! (a brighter fate!)

Farewell 00:42
Who sets up the morning that aprils warm air brings? Who teaches the song that the birds will learn to sing? Life is for the children the most beautiful play Let me say that my wish for you is: Love Stay safe Be well Be well
