Tracks



01. Canopus Three

They will know my rage
The sleeper is awake
I saw my future and my fate
In a strange and dreamlike state
My old life is left far behind

Lines of time
In my visions
I can see them all
Unified
But the prophecy still insecure
I'll realize the future

Enlightened with a different name
Given by the second moon
Leader of the native tribes of Dune

(As foretold...)
The seas of sand are now my home
(... in days of old)
Nevermore I walk alone
(Know thy fate...)
The meaning of my dreams now clear
(...legions wait)
And revolution's here

Father, the sleeper has awaked!

(As foretold...)
The seas of sand are now my home
(... in days of old)
Nevermore I walk alone
(Know thy fate...)
The meaning of my dreams now clear
(...legions wait)
And revolution's here

02. Thriven

I sit here all alone, watch the sun go down, leaving fiery ranges
My soul is set aflame, the daily fight is on, still pain ain't gone

A thriving land is what I see
No virgin wilderness could be
A home to us, some fertile ground is all we're asking for
We give our pain, twice our blood
One with the soil, one with the gods
Strongest faith is needed here, so fail the weak

Work to live. Another tear, another bleeding
Every day another price to pay. I pay and bleed
Therefore I consider leaving. But this land forces me to stay
Creating

The land has changed, the tribe has too
It's new gained wealth means loss of faith
That formed life, that was a guide to generations
Although the mountains still stand strong
The threat is here, it's been too long
We haven't thought this land could wither, could wither slowly

Work to live. Another tear, another bleeding
Every day another price to pay. I pay and bleed
Therefore I consider leaving. But this land forces me to stay
Creating

Creating thriven land
Nothing will be the same, can we rebuild this land again
Creating thriven land
Shining like a star, shining bright so far?

Work to live.
Another tear, another bleeding Every day another price to pay.
I pay and bleed. Therefore I consider leaving.
But this land forces me to stay. Infinite greed
Another heart, a different beating.
That left the anguish of the past behind
Beloved lands. Now upon them vultures feeding
Not even one worth to be elder's heir
Creating

03. Dreams Unlived

[Instrumental]

04. Reduced To Nothingness

I've just found my Tanelorn
My task is done, my quest complete
But some things seem strange, unreal
Dearest wish and clearest vision
Form the sea I navigate
I shun the cliffs of consciousness

In the deep where fire leaps up to become the shape
Of all that you fear
Know the gate to glorious fates never seen in this life.
So I fall?

?in other worlds on deeper plains
I'm coming through again
Forlorn in the never
When I rise (to awake)
And regain consciousness
Then all is reduced to nothingness

There are times I can't believe
I crossed the line because I see
These dreams of despair they are real

In the deep where fire leaps up to become the shape
Of all that you fear
Know the gate to glorious fates never seen in this life.
So I fall?

?in other worlds on deeper plains
I'm coming through again
Forlorn in the never
When I rise (to awake)
And regain consciousness
Then all is reduced to nothingness

Caught in the gravity of the non-dreaming world
I suffer from the incapacity to create a future that never was

Someone in the multiverse is dreaming your reality
Imagine he could be the one who lives your dreams.
Connecting, interacting on the field of possibilities
Figments of the mind behold divinity.

Someone in the multiverse is dreaming your reality
Imagine he could be the one who lives your dreams.
Connecting, interacting on the field of possibilities
Figments of the mind behold divinity.

So I fall, unknown fates I see again

?in other worlds on deeper plains
I'm coming through again
Forlorn in the never
When I rise (to awake)
And regain consciousness
Then all is reduced to nothingness

?in other worlds on deeper plains
I'm coming through again
Forlorn in the never
When I rise (to awake)
And regain consciousness
Then all is reduced to nothingness

05. Forever

Far away you fly
Your soul is in the sky
There's nothing left that brings you back to me
You've reached out my mind
You've lost a painful fight
Now follow him into the underworld

I'm sad and down
Tears running down my face
I miss your touch and the sweet taste of your lips

I'm waiting every day but I know you'll never come
Forever your eyes will be closed
The endless fear has gone, after darkness comes the sun
Forever salvation has come
Forever you'll be gone

Afraid to call your name
I feel an endless pain
Together we were strong and full of pride
The snow is falling down
I've lost my golden crown
My kingdom is empty, dark and cold

I'm sad and down
Tears running down my face
I miss your touch and the sweet taste of your lips

I'm waiting every day but I know you'll never come
Forever your eyes will be closed
The endless fear has gone, after darkness comes the sun
Forever salvation has come
Forever you'll be gone

Standing at your grave on a sleeping bed of roses
Waiting for a little sign
I close my eyes, remember all the feelings
That I had lying in your arms

I'm sad and down
Tears running down my face
I miss your touch and the sweet taste of your lips

I'm waiting every day but I know you'll never come
Forever your eyes will be closed
The endless fear has gone, after darkness comes the sun
Forever salvation has come
Forever you'll be gone

06. Dead Man Walking

Good morning friend, today is the day
A sleepless night is over now
The tower bells toll majestically
Strangle my fear, cold hands on my neck

Time's running out, it's all in vain
I can feel the pain

Here is the day I'll end
Blood is still on my hand
Remains from the shades of the past
God doesn't see me now
You cannot take this vow
There's only one thing I request
Walk my last way to its bitter end
Help me to die

I raise my head towards the threatened sky
Thank you my friend, my companion in life
I'm caught between hope and despair
I think today is a good day to die

Time's running out, it's all in vain
Think I go insane

Here is the day I'll end
Blood is still on my hand
Remains from the shades of the past
God doesn't see me now
You cannot take this vow
There's only one thing I request
Walk my last way to its bitter end
Help me to die

Now it's over, now it's done
No chance to repent all my lies
In my memories I can see the signs
The sign of pain and agony
The sign of might and glory

Time's running out, it's all in vain
Think I go insane

Here is the day I'll end
Blood is still on my hand
Remains from the shades of the past
God doesn't see me now
You cannot take this vow
There's only one thing I request
Walk my last way to its bitter end
Help me to die

07. From Where the Dark Is Born

Here I stand
A fallen creature all alone
Never meant to rise again
Here I stand
Scarred by iron, fang and thorn
Can't believe that I returned
From where the dark is born

I've been roaming the ages
Have seen forces collide
Have been fighting on any side I know
The turning of pages
As many times as I've changed my name
Just left anything the same

From where I come is where I go
The game of life and death will lead my way
More scars to gain, more pain to grow
And I will walk again where the dark is born

A land lying in ashes
In a battle where dark light shone
I cannot say if lost or won
Sounding like lashes
Thousand killing machines marched on
Granting mercy to no one

From where I come is where I go
The game of life and death will lead my way
More scars to gain, more pain to grow
And I will walk again where the dark is born

See the space of time
That I thought was mine
I have given birth
a self made underworld
To where I come down once again
All time I was bearing the same
There is no escape, no relief till the end

From where I come is where I go
The game of life and death will lead my way
More scars to gain, more pain to grow
And I will walk again where the dark is born

From where I come is where I go
The game of life and death will lead my way
More scars to gain, more pain to grow
And I will walk again where the dark is born

08. Words Untold

[Instrumental]

09. Circle Of My Second Life

Leave me alone, I won't give your any answers
Your poisoned words will not serve you anyway
Know this well, a twisted soul without a shelter
Is about to fail with a body only borrowed

Ways to go I know you'll never find
A heart that beats for me alone
My empty space a target for your lies
A part of me that slowly dies

Pain in my head, cut it out, I cannot stand it
Just take my blood, wash it clean, is this the cure
There's no blade that reaches deep enough
And my sanity just remains an illusion

Ways to go I know you'll never find
A heart that beats for me alone
My empty space a target for your lies
A part of me that slowly dies

What are the reasons for these unfair awful words you say to me
I'm nothing evil, I'm the helpful counter current in your veins
(United both in flesh and veins)
So many skills that you were gifted
Would they be yours without my command
I know, therefore I want you to go?
You will not stop me to flow

Ways to go I know you'll never find
A heart that beats for me alone
My empty space a target for your lies
A part of me that slowly dies

10. Engraved Within

I wake you softly
Deep in your dreams lying here alone
Waiting for another day
Here I go now
Just find my choice in every word you say
Following the game we play

Time stands still when you touch my face again
The broken clouds become complete
(We will meet again)

Not only the image has remained, It's carved within my soul
There's a fire in you that glows just somewhere in the dark
A guiding light that will not cease until my dying day
A living shadow with your face engraved in lines of light

Through times you had been
Nothing less that the sense of life to me
And some things never change
Still you are here
From somewhere deep inside you speak to me
Using words that tear my heart

Time stands still when you touch my face again
The broken clouds become complete
(We will meet again)

Not only the image has remained, It's carved within my soul
There's a fire in you that glows just somewhere in the dark
A guiding light that will not cease until my dying day
A living shadow with your face engraved in lines of light
