Tracks



01. Free Born

In the age of darkness
The shadows of the cowards fall
Evil thoughts try to stop us
and kill me

Angel of destruction
Sweep the filth away
Erase corruption
And make me free

The beginning of the battle to
Defend our ideals,
In the mighty clash of army
We'll survive again

Fire!
Burn in the
Battlefield!
Purify our souls
Before the Chasm
The magic song is my guide

We are freeborn against the world
Fighting forever the Dark Mighty Lord
We are soldiers of twilight
Standing together against our Fate

For your acts, your name will survive again
Another sacrifice was made for sacred cause
Time has come for all to raise the heads and fight
After the fall of grace, our scream resounds tonight

Hundreds thousands of phantoms
are storming my mind
Madness tries to tame me
but my soul is too strong

We are freeborn against the world
Fighting forever the Dark Mighty Lord
We are soldiers of twilight
Standing together against our Fate

02. Lord Of Terror

I'm the one
The King of the Gods
Guardian of Mankind remember my name
Lost in a dark abyss for thousand years
I have returned to destroy your life

I am here
Legend's back for eternity
You'll be my slaves
This world now lacks the holy force

Mortal man you've signed your own
death warrant
In this vision, look at your damned fate:

Deadland and destruction
Around your blind eyes
Screams of sorrow
Will hurt your mind
Horror will come
With its dark wings
I'm the Darkness
Master of the Night.

I'm the only one
King of Terror, lord of Filth
I'm the only one
In my hands, your life will burn

"Fool creature of the night
Your reign is just sand"

Fantasy!
Nobody else can fight against me
Agony!
Is the only way that you will cross
My kingdom will be your

Deadland, wasteland
Your time has come and
Now, my fury will
Disrupt your soul
The wind will breaks your damned
life like
A slight branch swept by the storm

I'm the only one
King of Terror, lord of Filth
I'm the only one
In my hands, your life will burn

03. The Ancient Curse

They come from the sea
From far beyond
Their ships bite the rumbling
Waves of none

Like a tide that hurls
against the rocks
like an eagle on it's prey
They're marching on

Allies are now distant from here
And the battle's coming as a plague
From the top of this fortress
We're screaming again

Sons of evil we'll never surrender
with courage we will break
This ancient curse
From houses to temples
Surrounded by terror that's
Creeping inside
But the remains
will recall our Fate
They'll bring our fate back

16.000 come to die
In nine days of bloody
Odd resistance made in vain
We sing about an age's end

Mother! Take me home
Death! Take me away

Allies are now distant from here
And the battle's coming as a plague
From the top of this fortress
We're screaming again

Sons of evil we'll never surrender
with courage we will break
This ancient curse
From houses to temples
Surrounded by terror that's
Creeping inside
But the remains
will recall our Fate
They'll bring our fate back

04. Sanctuary Of The Kings

At the end of time I feel the whispers of divine
Maybe I'm not prepared, but ancient
towers tell me:
"welcome to the sanctuary of the kings"
Here is carved an hold prophecy

"only a warrior pure in his heart
May stop the fate that's written on the dust"

Another holy war
I am fighting for me and for all of us
And we'll never give up
Another holy war
These words will be my glory
Or the script for my requiem

Faster than light
We are creatures of time
We are just at the beginning
Open your mind
Look inside you the legend
Of kings of the immortal
They live in you and
I'll be your guide
Between your roots
You're child of this strain

Inside the darkness we stand
And we seek our life
Beyond this gate
There begins
The quest for Truth
We're fighting for the Kings

Another holy war
I am fighting for me and for all of us
And we'll never give up
Another holy war
These words will be my glory
Or the script for my requiem

Another holy war
I am fighting for me and for all of us
And we'll never give up
Another holy war

05. Achille's Fury (In Hector's Death)

Zeus, the Right, is on my side
His thunderbolt's burning bright
Revenge comes here
To fill you with fear
Death calls death, I take my oath:
I will see, when you are blind!

Innocent blood was spilled on the field
Giving you a new damned day
Would you celebrate
Achilles' end?
You are guilty and the sentence is death
Into the dark, fall into the dark!

Forevermore, your soul will scream in the Hades
And with the damned, the Stygian travel's just
begun

"The end of this endless war,
I know,
It's coming as fast as the hourglass sand runs
I swear you will never go over these doors
You desecrate his body but not his heart"

Shadows on the walls
Blood is flowing away
Mourning for your strain
When ravens eat your body mixed with sand
Gods are laughing
For this sacrifice
You'll never rest in peace

You will see when you are blind
fall into the dark!

Forevermore, you will enter
the silence of Hades
Without rest
Full of pain
Forgotten for all time

"The end of this endless war,
I know,
It's coming as fast as the hourglass sand runs
I swear you will never go over these doors
You desecrate his body but not his heart"

Shadows on the walls
Blood is flowing away
Mourning for your strain
When ravens eat your body mixed with sand
Gods are laughing
For this sacrifice
You'll never rest in peace

06. Time Has Gone By

Look at a new dawn
The rime hurts our faces
Today, our paths lead us in different places
The way of sorrow, we've crossed for a while,
Will prosecute only deep inside my mind
I relive
What I once lived forever

At the end of the night, the sun shines again
And the shadows hide themselves
Keep the memory in your heart as a fairytale
Remember your name and honour it
Until we meet again
In this land

Over the hills
At the end of the storm
Hear and preserve all these magical words
It's time to believe
It's time to forget
Fulfil your destiny, you must have no regrets

Even though you'll climb
The highest mountain
Do not look behind
Show no fear
Carry on with pride
Let this learning be carved inside your heart
All the things you'll find
Keep 'em inside you
As a silver line which you must follow
Live everyday
As if it was the last one

Over the hills
At the end of the storm
Hear and preserve all these magical words
It's time to believe
It's time to forget
Fulfil your destiny, you must have no regrets

07. Jalwink's Fall

Now the sun has risen
The dark assault has started
They are unfinished
They are the fear of man

Look behind
I can't see the end
Hear my oath
We'll never lose
Victory or Death

Pain becomes my breath
My ultimate life's reason
I say don't be afraid
Justice is with us

In the sky
The sun lights the day
In my eyes
A fire burns again

See the Prince of Death
On the Iron Hills
Only blood and brutal madness
Evil fury comes
Theater of pain
Lies before my eyes
The sun is dark, the fields are blood
It's the Hell on earth

My steel was never defeated
My mind was never corrupted

Now a messenger of death
Flies up into the sky

And while I'm fighting
Jalwink stands proud
Now a messenger of death
Destroys the life of men
And while I'm dying
Jalwink's falling down

My steel was never defeated
My mind was never corrupted

Now a messenger of death
Flies up into the sky

08. The Walls Of Troy

During the night the truth is revealed
After a long wait
The prophecy comes true
The gods are playing with our destiny
And The screams of Cassandra resound
in the air

Ten years ago
We did not believe in our Fate
The flames now say it's too late
Today my house's walls are shining bright

The smell of victory and peace makes us foolish
And now the dawn brings a gift full of hate
and decay

Nowhere and nowhere you can hide your fear
But the fire of betrayal surrounds all the night
and the deep dark
will lead us to the end

We're rising from a flame
From ashes as a phoenix
There's a new beginning
We're roving over seas
The tears of my sorrow are not
shed in vain

We rise from here
From the screams of the slain
Betrayed by the gods

Creeping on tonight, we escape from
the light that
Corrodes our past lives
Faster, much faster we go to the stormy sea
Don't turn your head to look back
Forget your memories they're turned into dust
The age of my people has gone by

Nowhere and nowhere you can hide your fear
But the fire of betrayal surrounds all the night
and the deep dark
will lead us to the end

We're rising from a flame
From ashes as a phoenix
There's a new beginning
We're roving over seas
The tears of my sorrow are not
shed in vain

We're rising from a flame
Rising to begin
From nowhere beyond the seas
We're rising from a flame
Waiting for a time
When shame is avenged by the glory of Rome

09. Eleanore Rigby

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from ?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong ?

Father mckenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working. darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Eleanor rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father mckenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
