Princess Of The Dawn Lyrics
A white frost on the moors
It's an epoch of eternity
Waters touch the holy shore
The world of unseen eyes
You can feel the shadow of a princess
She waits for you inside
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn
Young blood ran it's course
They fell to his blade
The knight Iron Horse
Disappearing in the haze
A chamber of vestal virgins
Twilight is her slave
Life for satan - dust to dust
Princess of the Dawn
The seventh moon was raging fire
Heaven cried for the sacrifice
The midnight sun was rising higher
Lies in her royal crypt
Her kiss is bitter sweet
Death upon her lips
Kings and bishops bow to grace
Princess of the Dawn
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn
A first sunbeam is killing the night
Once upon a time for ever more
The gloom with the spirit of that Lady in White
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn

Reminds me of some good old days, I have been looking for the lyrics for a while now, thanks!

Just my thoughts, but I think the song is about the battle between heaven and hell "It's a land of mystery The world of unseen eyes You can feel the shadow of a princess She waits for you inside "and maybe making a reference to satan being a female as the princess of the dawn. Like a pump up song before angels and demons go into the final battle of heaven and earth. The guardians of God play the pawns Beg for mercy, hail the queen Princess of the Dawn.
More like he is singing from the evil side and predicting a win in the battle.
@caloman88 I see the battle as a chess game and "heaven and hell" could be translated to "white and black" figures. :) See my comment

I think the majority of the lyrics are nonsense but I like to think the whole song as the duration of one night when the 'princess of the dawn' rules the land. The end comes when "a new day dawns...", and it happens on and on ("once upon a time, for ever more"), just like the monotonous beat of the song.
Goddamn, this must be a killer live song, ACCEPT 4ever folks :D !

I think it's a story about playing a chess game in the stereotypical castle because of many related terms, but I don't know that much chess to visualize such game and interpret the song. Maybe there exist a(n animated) movie with the same thematic.
