Before Eden - The Legacy Of Gaia lyrics



Tracks



01. Nomad Soul

Spirit that walks alone
Seek and you shall find
In this endless road
Lights blind and hold the night
Lost knowledges
Ghosts in a wide world
They dance around me, temptating me
Calling me, daring me, facing me, yeah
Waiting to be a part of my being
Everywhere I go
A brand world brings me a new horizon

Spirit that feels so cold
Lies, under the heart of the frozen storm
Flashes blind across the sky
Lightnings reflecting, in my closed eyes
They draw all my fears
Inside my mind, while I sleep
In my dreams, now I scream, yeah, trying
To awake from this choice I made
This pouring rain
Makes reality arise out from the shadows

I see the tragic way it goes
The choice was made without remorse
Far from home, the fatalities of been alone
But I must face my destiny
Put my soul of from misery
This strange feeling
That is leading me to the unknown

The Nomad Soul
You know my soul!

02. Wizard Of The South

Some time ago
He was born
Angel or Demon
He was certainly a genius
Since his childhood, victory follows him
His Masters had nothing more to teach
Many challenges he overcame
And rewards received
Around him
An aura of satanism and magic
Involved in an atmosphere
Supernatural geniality

The young causes fright
His fame grows and everybody wants to see
The Wizard of the South
Of undecipherable smile

Like in a dream, a demon with horns
Tail and shells
Playing violin, a diabolical sonata
The bookstand and the partiturs
Were burning in flames
I have never seen or heard something like it in my life
People that used to cross the cemetery said
That they had seen, hovering over the graves...
A thin and old man playing his violin

The young causes fright
His fame grows and everybody wants to see
The Wizard of the South
Of undecipherable smile

He is dead, but not his legend, neither his opus

03. Essence

Can you see the twilight over you
Can you hear the voice of the truth
Can you smell the absinth of your soul
Can you feel the energy flows

Can this be a dream or a nightmare
Can this be just a state of mind
Can you show answers
For all your doubts
Can you feel the meaning of life
What's to find

Essence inside out
Turns into a call
Brings the destiny shining the ways around
Years passed by
Tries hazed so many lies
Time to realize
If all your acts were right

Use your might, deep insight
Clear and bright

Time flows, life goes, mind grows
But only your essence knows

How invite, what's inside
To meet the outside

Essence inside out
Turns into a call
Brings the destiny shining the ways around
Years passed by
Tries hazed so many lies
Time to realize
If all your acts were right

04. The Legacy Of Gaia

I. Earth Cry

[Instrumental]

II. Enemy Eve

Leave us Father away from men's anxiety
Their eyes have burned the skies
Lands are drowned with tears
Children crying with fear

Leave this world away
from nightmares we live today
We've heard whispers of a cruel way
Cold voices are echoing again
Men planning in vain

God grant us the force
To leave the chaos away from here
Blow us the key to open the minds
Of all humanity
They just can't see that the enemy
Is the will of what they want to be
War is the seed of evolution dreams
Full of grandiosity, supremacy, insanity

Eve of extinction is here
A virus that consume without perspective
And the future lies in the hands of this parasite
That breaths all fluxe of life
Living forms fade
Material things arise
Fruits of vanity of a mind
That draws his final sight
Hear our mother cry, the cry of Gaia

Leave us father, away from men's sorcery
Leave this world away
From nightmares we live today

See the final lead
Men with an ego to feed
Glorious dreams come true
In place of the dead green
Dark in the sea
A brand new breeze, gray in the sky
The world falls into a new? new kind of time
Awaiting to sleep and die
Is this the end?

III. Toast Of Mankind

Skies, falling around
Colors unbound do the dance, tragic dawn
They meet the souls and flesh, on the ground
Billions of lives
Won't survive to men's design

(Don't lie, justify)
Why, we feed in our minds
With trivial needs
Compulsive greed, deadly seeds

(Don't Hide, intensify)
Cry, hate for the human kind
An insane mind
Extremely blind, released this hell

Human Nation

Burning Cells

The end has come, the wasting dome
Can't be undone,
This vision brings, regret within
What could be done???

We had foreseen, the war itself
Man was born to be extinguished...

"Space Station Nova"
From here we see...
The distortion...
From here we hear...
Mass destruction....
For the last time
Say goodbye

As we rise far beyond from the skies
Leaving earth behind, in toast of mankind

Extermination

From here we see...
The extinction...
From here we feel...
The affliction ...

For endless time
The planet dies

Fly, away from revolution, it's evolution
This wise solution by an institution
Institution of men, supreme, the rational being
A hurt ego to feed
War was the seed for this sad conclusion

(Don't lie, justify)
Why, we feed in our minds
With trivial needs
Compulsive greed, deadly seeds

(Don't Hide, intensify)
Cry, hate for the human kind
An insane mind
Extremely blind, released this hell

Termination

The Curtain fell!

IV. Nova

Taking Place, moving through the space
Illuminated by the third sun, look my son...
There was one like that from where we come

Side by side with the mother, an endless ring
They used to give the energy for the living things...
Above and below, the mystic sources
For the human beings...

Taking place, sailing through the space
Following the dust of the stars
Never had been so far....
Always witnessing, a new touch in the infinity

As the unknown around embrace
NOVA carries the hope of an afflicted race
Searching for a new chance just to start again
Will it all, be in vain????

Immensely, indeed, so far, so deep, infinity
All that we see, has no end
In this tireless journey to find a new land

Every child that is to be born
A new hope to keep fighting on and on....
Crossing the years
Will we find a new home...

Children of tomorrow
From the belly of our dears...
Slayers of the sorrow
Keeping on, our dreams so clear....

But so, they came to life
Static bodies with no signs
All these fruits of love
Are lacked of a soul...

"She used to give a part of Gaia
For the living things"
We killed her, the source, the essence

Taking place, driving through the space
Facing the will of the Gods
Will humans never stop...
Never change, to destroy and to rearrange

As the unknown around embrace
Nova carries the hope of an afflicted race
The last generation, final invitation
To face this hole creation

Immensely, indeed, so far, so deep, infinity
All that we see, has no end
In this tireless journey to find a new land

The breath of life has ceased
Existence extinguished
Could a new "Earth"
Conceive us the essence of life?
And we shall not fear the end
We are searching for the Everland

V. Tomorrow's Gone

Where is the land, the hope of man
Will still remain, will I feel all right to say
That is the end, for those that I love...

Many years have gone
Dust drew our way
Through endless stars
But now what is born, is born without soul

Tomorrow's Gone
Can't you see all that was done
Tomorrow's Gone
All in vain... who will remain
Tomorrow's gone
They can't breath no soul to give
Tomorrow's gone
Life can't be conceived indeed

Will I feel all right?

Time is closing near
Deep inside we hold our fears
Where is the land that will dry our tears

Tomorrow's Gone
Can't you see all that was done
Tomorrow's Gone
All in vain... who will remain
Tomorrow's gone
They can't breath no soul to give
Tomorrow's gone
Life can't be conceived indeed

I'll be waiting
For the End

VI. Everland

Every single tear I cry, fades each try...
Don't let it die...
Awake your hope again
Invite your soul and keep the search
For the EverLand.

There's no such place in our lifetime
It lies in human mind....
Dreamy kind...
There's always hope in life
The evident truth while love
And dreams are still alive
Cold and fear embrace my mind...
I'm getting blind....
Lonely mind...
Look to the shameful past
The things we've done
And now the ones who last
Time fading fast, the future rests?

In the hands of an Empty
Selfish heart and dying soul
Evidence of a kind that loses
Its own control

Remember, the presence of this evil mind
Searching, in the endless of time

Listen to the deep voice
Of your asleep angel of life
And you'll see, the beauty we left behind

Never, a blind mind shall rule again
And forever, our kind will in peace remain

Hurry, all the dreams shall now be cast
Ending this unavoidable quest

For the EverLand

05. Reality

What is real?
I can't see it clearly...
Shadows on my eyes, low noises are heard
I feel the cold beneath my feet
And my senses now are lost

Have I been corrupted?

It seems like a punishment
someone is trying to tell me something
I can't distinguish what is real... I agonize...
In a twisted pain
A storm raises in my head

I'm losing myself
I'm losing myself
I'm losing myself
It's time to free yourself - In this hell
It's time to feel yourself - In this hell
It's time to free yourself - From this hell

Suddenly I'm waking... "strange places..."
Surrounded by unknown things...
It is a puzzle?
What am I doing here "is it real?"
Questions without answers tormenting me...

Closing my eyes I finally see
There's an answer that no one has told
I feel the fire that burns my flesh
And my skin are now being ripped
Freedom to my dammed angel
Unleash my demon so I can beat him
Releasing my soul, forces around us
From the shadows and light they arise

We must balance the forces of life
Good and evil, wrong or right
Let the demons and angels fight
To protect the free will
Cause we have the right of choice
Choose what is right, I'm choosing life

I'm losing myself
I'm losing myself
I'm losing myself
It's time to free yourself - In this hell
It's time to feel yourself - In this hell
It's time to free yourself - From this hell

"I forgive you my demon
But now it's time for you to leave me..."
