Conquest Is Over Lyrics

[Nicolas:]
My love

[Magdalena:]
Nicolas
How joyous
How long have I been dreaming?

[Nicolas:]
Not long my love
But think of it no longer

[The Queen of the South:]
Did you find it?
That heart of mine?

[Nicolas:]
What is this foul whispering?

[The Queen of the South:]
Still kept a secret eye upon you
It has been safe
Inside the tower's chamber

[Nicolas:]
This is not you speaking
It can't be
I mistook your passion for love

[The Queen of the South:]
I fear you did
However
The conquest is over
For I love thee not

[The Golden King:]
He is a dreamer
Let him be

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Conquest Is Over lyrics by Blind Guardian

by TheRealLumos

6y ago

From the liner notes by Markus Heitz (author of "The Dark Lands"):

"CONQUEST IS OVER" While he roams the tower of the Red Dwarf looking for his friends, he unexpectedly finds Magdalena -- and she is sleeping! Her death was only a delusion by the dwarf. But right next to her the Golden King stands. The masks come off.
