Trying to defy
The pillars of creation
What may seem like a gift, are tears of mankind
Bloodstained throne
Real wealth is not material
Fascinated by treachery hiding the lies
Embrace your own delusion, might god forgive the sinners?
The arcane force can't be confined
Soul of the alchemist
It keeps the purest fire
Soul of the alchemist
Dead is your slave
Dark desires
The ambition is deliverance
For those who idolize silver and gold
The weakest hearts
Succumb to desperation
Agonizing for being simple servants of time
Embrace your own delusion, might god forgive the sinners?
The arcane force can't be confined
Soul of the alchemist
It keeps the purest fire
Soul of the alchemist
Dead is your slave
The gloom spreads its mantle, your dreams reveal this precious gift.
An enigmatic honour, someday you will understand, again...
Why me? What are the answers?
This cage will stay forever
Why me? Why am I special?
My great journey has begun
Soul of the alchemist
It keeps the purest fire
Soul of the alchemist
Dead is your slave
Soul of the alchemist
It keeps the purest fire
Soul of the alchemist
Dead is your slave

Black Death Sonata
04:24
|

|
These notes are so familiar
I'm getting closer to insanity
My time has gone forever
I am a shadow of what I could have been
She paid the highest price
I was obsessed with my delirium
Unsparing bane of human frailty
Eternity will be denied
Will be denied
Stubbornness becomes demise
My withered ego induced my downfall
Overwhelmed by execration
I loathed myself in vain to purge my deeds
My aspirations concealed the truth
The past remain undignified
Unsparing bane of human frailty
Eternity will be denied
Will be denied
What have I done?
Sorrow lasts forevermore
Why have you gone?
Now it's too late
I could never tell you how I miss you
I was always by your side
Madness sometimes blurred my thoughts
My grief will last forever
Could you please take me with you?
My soul is trapped
I'm waiting for you
I can't walk this path alone
Because I need you
We should be together
I forgive you
Take my hands
I could never tell you how I miss you
I was always by your side
Madness sometimes blurred my thoughts
My grief will last forever
Could you please take me with you?
Take me with you!!

Chaos Brings Order

These walls are beyond the fall
This massacre bodes disaster
For those whom death awaits
Histeria
They cry, it's the end of the traitors
She turns away to face her fate
In this reign of terror
Death resonates
Her love is consumed by shame
Eons pass as seconds wait
There's no redemption
Behold your disgrace
Chaos rules over this land and brings order
Tyranny drowns in a sea of lies
Liberty, equality, fraternity, serenity
Shattered lives, they will rise!
Liberty, equality, fraternity, serenity
Shattered lives, they will rise!
War becomes desire!
She holds her breath to die alone
Why must i face these lies
Fate wants to unveil my broken dreams
All is lost in this world forlorn,
Tortured souls condemned to die alone
All is lost in this world forlorn,
Tortured souls condemned to die alone
Chaos brings order!

A Train to Nowhere

Dreadful crimes disturb my dreams
I hear echoes of my direful sins
What could i have done?
And now my weak heart bleeds
When the last of them is gone
Then the faith will be reborn
Where could i have run?
And now is too late
There's no sight
Of other ways
I shall keep up this masquerade
There's no light
No escape
I must keep up this masquerade
Anguish haunts me from within
Life obscures the core of suffering
How could i be blamed?
If now their souls fly free
When the last of them is gone
Then the faith will be reborn
Where could i have run?
And now it's too late
My distress becomes pleasure
It's too late for regrets
There's no sight
Of other ways
I shall keep up this masquerade
There's no light
No escape
I must keep up this masquerade
"When we look at the fence separating us from the rest of the world, our souls, like birds in a cage, yearn to be free. ... Will i ever live in better times?"
I admit my faults
Could you forgive me?
I lost my soul
Could you forgive me?
I admit my fault
Could you forgive me?
I lost my soul
Could you forgive me?
In the silence lie our hopes
When your time comes you'll hear our moans
All our dreams forever lost
In a train to nowhere

Nuclear Afterglow
05:10
|
|||
|
The grey sky hides the sun
Where desolation reigns in silence
The poisoned soil evokes the signs
Of lacerated skies
Forgotten thoughts came to me
Revealing cries of desperation
An underserved curse occurred
Among these collapsing walls
Cold and distant
Are the memories
Of those who didn't know to whom they belonged
A crown of misery
Reminiscence
Of those who lived a nuclear afterglow
Alone, drowned in the past, frightening scenes rewind in my mind
Surrounded by dust and ruins
Breathing loneliness and sorrow
Overshadowed by solitude
In the realms of decay
I'm leaving now the shrine of guilt
The further threats await in silence
Spectral shades before my eyes
And nature takes control
Cold and distant
Are the memories
Of those who didn't know to whom they belonged
A crown of misery
Reminiscence
Of those who lived a nuclear afterglow

Comfort Zone
06:34
|

|
All these years have been left behind
In this lonely cell the ambitions have passed by
And my hopes are now confined
The whole globe has been defiled
As a part of the involution of mankind
Where our lives have gone by fast
And when you think it's over
My dreams revive again
It's time to leave my enclosure
It's time to flow
I forsake this world
My heart is undefiled
Despised innocence
I assume my fault
I'm facing horizons beyond my control
The echoes of silence tear my heart
I always knew that I'd die alone
Whilst I'm forgetting my comfort zone
Darkness enshrouds my wrath
And the void keeps me away from poisoned thorns
From the place where I belong
Ahead an uncertain fate
What's the path that I should take to avoid the pain?
I'm imprisoned in this maze
And when you think it's over
My dreams revive again
It's time to leave my enclosure
It's time to flow
I'm facing horizons beyond my control
The echoes of silence tear my heart
I always knew that I'd die alone
Whilst I'm forgetting my comfort zone
I forsake this world
My heart is undefiled
Despised innocence
I assume my fault

We're made of ashes
Born of the same soul
A glimpse of remembrance
Haunts your thoughts
You belong to me
I'm coming for you
Close your eyes again and sleep
I belong to you
To this world of glass
It's now when everything turns black
We're made of ashes
Born of the same soul
You belong to me
I'm coming for you
Close your eyes again and sleep
I belong to you
To this world of glass
It's now when everything turns black

Feeling trapped in a plastic world
Where despair keeps me awake
Earth shatters beneath our feet
Her precious gift brings the salvation
Countdown to misery
Faceless shadows perturb her peace
I feel ethereal,
Witness of my own fall
Dazed by illusions
Through immemorial times
Haunted by unknown spectres
Visions of so many lives
Have I lived the same before?
Could our paths will cross again?
Earth shatters beneath our feet
Her precious gift brings the salvation
Countdown to misery
Faceless shadows perturb her peace
A furious blaze plagues my memories
Warfare wraiths announce the end
You succumbed to fire
A tragedy that now revives in me
How can we be tied?
Behold my curse
When darkness claims the sun
I'm not afraid, it's time to release the pain
I won't reborn
Feel my embrace, I hope it's not too late
To cease the curse
I challenged death and lost my chances
Mayhem led the rebellion's growth
Humanity showed me the horror
I've transcended beyond the space
And I saw you burn!
I saw you burn!
