about

"The Great Fairyland" tells the story of two siblings lost and lonely in a destroyed world of war. (for more: read lyrics and think for yourself!)

By the way / "As the attentive listener might have noticed":
The "Fairyland" story is loosely connected to the setting of "Strafplanet Erde", "IRA" and "Desertification, as well as to the characters of "Beautiful world".
We might encounter the girl of "SEPLCRETUM" here as well.
Can you find all links and references between the lyrics... =)

lyrics

The great Fairyland

Text: Stefanie
Musikalische Idee: Stefanie

In the wideness of dreary wasteland
Distant from bomb-shattered huts
A litte boy walked towards the dark sky
With his sweet sister holding his hand
All the child had was his brotherly love
And his life, overshadowed with pain
And while he moved on towards a Fairyland
He cried out and released his complaint:

War has damaged our world
All for their greed for money and might and power
Searching for hope, for a sense
We set out for the great Fairyland!

Once when his parents still were alive
They told him a story for hope:
After our life on this earth we will go
To a village behind the dark clouds
There is a friendly, great Fairyland
Where everybody is glad

Smiling warm like the sun
We will live there hand in hand

War has damaged our world
All for their greed for money and might and power
Searching for hope, for a sense
We set out for the great Fairyland
Let us flee together, peacefully
Let us escape from this world of war!
Life is giving death and death gives life
Oh death, please set me free!
