Into Oblivion
06:43
|
|||
Rebirth thrust onto me once more
Can’t tell what world is real only
The screams in my head
Blinded by the force of sight again
Time! Time is the enemy
The crippling chains that bind us will break us down
This world is a force that can’t heal
Without a push away from the dark
To punish those who have chaos in their veins
Sever the souls and send them down into Oblivion
A champion now tasked by the Gods
But trapped and isolated in my cage
A servant I’ll be
The Dark shall not avail me here, not now
For I am the Seer of all
The timelines are my right
Time! Time is the enemy
From one seed of doubt corruption will reign in our hearts
Solo – D. Connolly
Solo – M. Snow
Time! Time’s not the enemy
That one seed of doubt has taken up root in our hearts
I have witnessed the heartless be destroyed
By the compassion of man
We have seen the end and yet we show no fear
As we plunge with zeal Into Oblivion

Calamitas
04:26
|
|||
I hide in morbid thought
The worm that feeds on doubt
Your confessions give rise to my claim
A realm of chaos bought
I fell in aeons past
In scripture and prophecy lies my name
Your praying is in vain
The time has come to ask
Why have you been forsaken again?
A life of servitude
Boiled down to regrets
Give yourself to me
Forgive me father for I have sinned
The price I paid for your love (was answered in pain)
Calamitas
The fallen ruin from the sky (Vae Victis)
Wherever your sins may lead you
I will be there to feed on your desires
I dared to speak my mind
Cast out to hide the truth
With one hand he gave then took away
Poisoned for all time
Used for Chastisement
Flawless forgiveness was just a lie
I hate you father and I will lead the charge
I’ll turn them all on you (as was done to me)
Solo – M.Snow
I am Apocalypse
Forgive me father for my sin
I must tear down your paradise

Legion
05:06
|
|||
Voices raised high. One united until the end
Defiance is in our blood. We will not falter we are legion
Hear the call to arms that echoes in your mind
Rattle the chains of rebellion and join those of our kind
Bloody banners striking fear inside weak hearts
Now is the time my friends and this is where it starts
Standing as one together
We shall rule the night forever
Spit in the eyes of those who stand opposed to us
Voices raised high. One united until the end
Defiance is in our blood. We will not falter we are legion
Spirits carry on. Lines unbroken gather strength yet
Bring down the mountainside. This time we’ll take what’s truly ours
Look to the sky see the coming of a new dawn
We left the ones behind who only dragged us down
A single ideal leads us through this battleground
We may be beaten but my friends we’ll never bow
Clench your fists embrace the truth
We were not born to be ruled
We are the hammer that beats upon the anvil
Solo – M. Snow
Solo – D. Connolly
Together we cannot fail
A fire burns inside us
No power on earth can control
The hearts of those pure of mind

I don’t want to believe. I refuse to accept this
A part of my soul has been torn away tonight
A void of silence screams within
Where you used to live. Where you won’t return
I feel this pain I hold inside will tear me apart
The nightmare has to end. A twisted dream is all this is
I’ll awake and see your eyes again
What evil trick has been played? What kind of hell am I in?
A numbness creeps upon my heart
I was told to have a heart of ice but fire’s what I need
The void it twists and cries it sunders my very core
Don’t talk to me of fate or fucking plans from high above
All I once had was taken but I would give it all again
To have one final look to steal one final memory
If grief is the price of love I’m not sure it’s worth the cost
I’ve learned to watch the endless bittersweet days
One thousand smiling faces betrayed by emptiness inside
Life is a cancer dragging us down
Into a famine of thought a drought of empathy
A vision comes of pleasure before becoming apathy
Alone I waste away to save myself from further pain
No tears remain. Deception of self has taken root
My choice was stolen from me. Lifeless eyes will never see
Made of stone I will wait until the end of my days

King Forevermore
04:12
|
|||
Solo - M. Snow
I ascend from the realm of death to watch your precious cities burn
From a far end time with the knowledge of the worlds
A dark crusade to purge the light of heaven’s eyes
A pantheon of fools to be cast down
To be crowned by the hammer
To be humbled by the axe
I am the King of pain forevermore
My reign shall last until the sun fades away
As death incarnate my word shall be law
A kingdom of loss. A kingdom of scars
A world of black and white I’m the moral grey between
Striving to hold the keys of balance in my hands
A mother’s gift, curse and burden all the same
Perverse intoxication forced upon a soul
Why can’t you see and pray?
Don’t weep for your last day
Solo – M. Snow
I felt my very soul be stripped from me
Did all you asked just to be cast aside
Nothing but a puppet with cut strings
I am now free and I will never kneel again
Solo – D. Connolly
I see it so clearly now. No Vision could have prepared me for this.
Another is born to take my place. No! Never! I am.
To rule a barren world or destroy all I see
A mirror image of the path set for me
No longer the plaything of Gods and their schemes
A new gift granted
The freedom (kingdom)
My freedom (kingdom)
Our freedom (Kingdom) from chains.

Banshee
05:10
|
|||
A keening wail mournful and despairing
Eyes stained red from torment never ending
A form so graceful of virgin pure or pale faced women with ruby hair
Unknown powers from beyond have set her on the morbid path
Come guide their souls tonight
Witness the Banshee’s rite
Don’t fear the woman of the fairy mound
Bearer to the afterlife
Wanders where death resides
The harbinger of doom to mortal kindred
Three nights to lament and cry
A warning sign for those soon to die
By the ford she waits with clothes stained red
Singing a sombre dirge to herald coming dead
Forever to wash away the blood until her preordained time
Hold your tongue be silent still you might escape your fate
Three days to lament and cry
A warning sign for those soon to die
Weaved through tales of ancient folklore
A being that walks unseen
She will protect from death
She’ll turn you away with a baleful scream
A chance now to flee
Saved by the cries, the cries.
Solo – M. Snow

Karaethon
06:25
|
|||
Fingers of shadow creep across a blackened age
As nations fall from fear and blade
Redemption brought upon the fires of the sun
A babe of prophecy to come
Salvation and burning follow in his wake
Ashes and deliverance when the earth will shake
To wield the sword born of the dawn
Here rides the Dragon Reborn
From the pattern he’s spun into the world
Twice to live twice to die
Madness lives inside his mind
Forever marked to be hunted by the dark
A pristine tower bent and buckled to his whim
Binding the moons to serve his cause
An ancient people slaughtered by prospects of peace
To follow the way of the leaf
Holding the blade of light that belongs in his hand
Indomitable stone brought down by the Car’a’carn
Let the dragon ride again on the winds of time
The hope for all the light
May a soul of flame find love heart of stone find tears
Remembering the past
Let the dragon ride again on the winds of time
The bane to dark shadow
Breaking chains and forging more bind them to his will
To force the proud to kneel on the fields of barren earth
He is born again! I feel him!
The Dragon takes his first breath on the slopes of Dragonmount!
He is coming! He is coming! Light help us! Light help the world!
He lies in the snow and cries like the thunder! He burns like the sun!
Solo – M. Snow
Solo – D. Connolly
To heal the world of madness claiming all men’s lives
To shield their minds from blackened taint
The seals that bind the evil weakened in their state
The dragon will shatter and break
Blood upon the slopes of the black mountain
Sweep away the dark for a new world to come

Augury of Vengeance
05:57
|
|||
Endless names cascade like leaves on the breeze
Whispering silent laments of time not yet complete
Mortal shells are cast aside without a care
And yet we still kneel down in prayer
I know I won’t walk alone
In the twilight of my dreams
I am the Augury of Vengeance nigh
Your belief and being will be mine
Forever to live in fear of what comes
When the faithful fail
Strike down a God naught with blood but with words
Devotion falters when all truths are destroyed
You’ll forever walk alone
As the voices fall as one
Burn on the cross of divine hubris
Languish in slow death
To walk the streets of burnt effigies
Ashes scattered in the wake of a dream
Take a look at the failed world you wrought with your pride
Your Divinity caused this divide
