01. Breathe (Until We Are No More)

Music & lyrics by Moonspell
Breathe in
Breathe out
You reached the top of the chain
Inhale
Exhale
You made it till the end of days

Every man is a sinner
Every man is a liar
Life's a slow procession
Into the fire

Carry the weight
Or crush under it
Carry the weight
Or crush

Every man is a sinner
In the name of the father
History's repeating
Into the fire

Carry the weight
Or crush under it
Carry the weight
Or crush

We started wanting
To be ourselves
Until we are no more

Breathe in
Breathe out
You reached the top of the chain
Inhale
Exhale
You made it till the end of days

Every man is a leader
Every man is a martyr
Every man is in trouble
Caught in your fire

Carry the weight
Or crush under it
Carry the weight
Or crush

We started wanting
To be ourselves
To live our lives

We went too far perhaps
Beyond control
Until we are no more

Breathe in
Breathe out
You reached the top of the chain
Inhale
Exhale
You made it till the end of days

Breathe in
Breathe out
You reached the top of the chain
Inhale
Exhale
You made it till the end of days

Breathe in
Breathe out
You reached the top of the chain
Inhale
Exhale
You made it till the end of days

02. Extinct

(Watch them)
(Watch them)
(Watch them)
(Watch them)

(Watch them)
(Watch them)
(Watch them)
(Watch them)

In each other's arms
At each other's throats
In the time out of mind
We buried our love

No moon to guide us tonight
No light to see us through

Let's pray for the waters
To come
Let's pray

I pray, time stops
While you rot
I pray, time stops

Before the lights go out
Before our time is gone
A taste of your lips
Before we go extinct

Before the lights go out
Before our time is gone
A taste of your lips
Before we go extinct

Without control
The ark took sail
To the far beyond
Through the limits of time

No moon to guide us
Just the star of death
To lead our way

Let's pray for the waters
To come
Let's pray

I pray, time stops
While you rot
I pray, time stops

Before the lights go out
Before our time is gone
The taste of your lips
Before we go extinct

Before the lights go out
Before our time is gone
Just one taste of your lips
Before we go extinct

Before the lights go out
Before our time is gone
A taste of your lips
Before we go extinct

Before the lights go out
Before our time is gone
A taste of your lips
Before we go extinct

03. Medusalem

Two white feathers sewn
On the angel black
Be mine just for another
Thousand nights

Or leave me to rot
To the gods of the sun
Just for a thousand lives
Two white feathers sewn
To the angel's back

In Medusalem
In Medusalem

Drive a needle through
Through the camel's eye
The heart is a ticking time bomb
Ready to explode

Or leave me to smoke
With the assassins tonight
Together we ride
Two white feathers sewn
To the angel's back

To Medusalem
To Medusalem

It's the land of honey, the land of pain
The city falls under its weight
The golden sands were painted red
And we shall free you
The golden sands
Were painted red
And we shall free you
And we shall free you from your chains

Two white feathers sewn
On the angel black
Just open the gates
Let there be light
Or leave me to be
With Morgana tonight

To the land of Cain
Come together, we'll ride
Two more feathers sewn
To the angel's back

To Medusalem
To Medusalem

It's the land of honey, the land of pain
The city falls under its weight
The golden sands were painted red
And we shall free you
The golden sands
Were painted red
And we shall free you
And we shall free you from your chains

[Arabic part]

To Medusalem
To Medusalem

It's the land of honey, the land of pain
The city falls under its weight
The golden sands were painted red
And we shall free you

It's the land of honey, the land of pain
The city walls give in to faith
The golden sands were painted red
And we shall free you
The golden sands
Were painted red
And we shall free you
And we shall free you from your chains

04. Domina

Your veil came down
For Judgment Day
What took to the skies?
What took you away?
Tears ran fast
And so did blood
But nothing could break
Through your ice
Break through your ice

We're always close
But never there
What came from the skies
To take you away?
Our children grew
Left us behind
But no one should pay
Such a price

Just another day
And they're all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

Just another day
And it's all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next
(Domina)

(Watched us fall)
(In a silent dive)
(Watch our love die)

Just another day
And they're all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

Just another day
And it's all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

(La, la-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
In this world or the next
(La, la-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
In this world or the next
(La, la-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
In this world or the next
(La, la-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
(La-ra-ra)
In this world or the next

05. The Last Of Us

Let me guide you to where it's silent
Across the limit of survivors' guilt
The crowds are waiting, their sight was taken
By the burning sun
We're moving on a straight line
Into depths unknown

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
My terms of surrender (surrender)
Nothing but eternity

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
No chance of surrender (surrender)
Before we fight our destiny

Let me touch you where it's forbidden
And test the limit of your sanctity
The crowd suspended, they have stripped naked
For the lust of God
The fire burns as if there's no tomorrow
No tomorrow

You know my heart will fail
You know my back will break
And again and again
It won't hurt just for you
To reveal my pain

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
My terms of surrender (surrender)
Nothing but eternity

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
No chance of surrender (surrender)
Before we fight our destiny

Black magic, unconditional love
Black magic unconditional
Black magic, unconditional lust
Black magic irresistible

Black magic, unconditional love
Black magic unconditional
Black magic, unconditional lust
Black magic irresistible

06. Funeral Bloom

Through the light and thunder
When it's night and day
Darkness, take my hand now
Take me anywhere

I could take shelter (shelter)
I could pretend
I could run against it
Wouldn't stop the wind

(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
To pick up a rose
From the mouth of the dragon
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
Bring you down from your tower
Start a chain reaction
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
Time to lay her down
Ashes to ashes
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
(Oh, it's time)
Time to cover the world
In funeral bloom

Through the age of light
(Aquarius)
When it's night and day
Follow the blind man through the fire
They always know their way

I could take cover
No use for protection
I could smash your other cheek
Blood out in the wind

Oh, it's time
Time to lay her down
Ashes to ashes
Oh, it's time
Time to cover the world
In funeral bloom
Oh, it's time
Oh, it's time
Time to lay her down
Ashes to ashes
Now it's time
Yeah, it's time
No other colors
But funeral bloom

We rise, we fall
Without control
We crash and burn
So damn our souls
I show you no remorse
Oh, no remorse
Ergo sum peccatore

"For he was a good man
A supplicant
And disaster was his god
Now devoid of earthly lust
I command him to the skies
Where everyone is just
And everything will be fine
Where everyone is just
And everything will be fine"

Now it's time
Time to lay her down
Ashes to ashes
Oh, it's time
Time to cover the world
In funeral bloom
Oh, it's time
Oh, it's time
Time to lay her down
Ashes to ashes
Now it's time
Yeah, it's time
No choice of color
But funeral bloom

We rise, we fall
Without control
We crash and burn
So damn our souls
I'll show you no remorse
Oh, no remorse
I'm but a sinner, a liar
A man who lost his course
Ergo sum peccatore

07. A Dying Breed

Can't you see that the curtain
Has fallen between us?
And that the statues of leaders
Keep smashing on the burning floor?

The sunset is rolling behind
The mountain's dying peak
Our life has no meaning
The world forgot about me

We're dying, we're falling
We're crawling, we're disappearing
We're trying, defining
Our sense of right and wrong
As a dying breed
As a thing from the past
We're a dying breed

Can't you see that the magic is over?
Has it ever started?
And how the music we listened keeps fading?
She's lost control (lost control)

The new tribes, they gather around
The Earth's dying core
The new ways are winning
No place for me anymore

We're dying, we're falling
We're crawling, we're disappearing
We're trying, defining
Our place in the natural order
As a dying breed
Just a dying breed
We're a dying breed
We're a thing from the past
Just a dying breed

We're dying, we're falling
We're crawling, we're disappearing
We're trying, defining
Our sense of right and wrong
We're dying, escaping
Still falling, we're disappearing
We're trying, defining
Our place in the natural order
As a dying breed
Just a dying breed
We're a dying breed
We're a thing from the past
We're a dying breed
Just a dying breed
Just a dying breed

08. Malignia

The quick spider weaving
Keeping the web
Alive and well
Like the black widow male
Just another victim
To a love so rare

I saw no light in your eyes
I know that others have tried

I thought I was the one
But you turned me into stone
And when you look back at people
You turn them into dust

I thought I was the one
But you turned me into stone
And when you look back at people
You turn them into dust

I count the snakes in your hair
Growing stronger
With every breath
I'll be the one who waits
Picking up the pieces
Until you come again

I saw no light in your eyes
I know that others have tried
I heard your tears sold like gold
One more of your lies unfold

I thought I was the one
But you turned me into stone
And when you look back at people
You turn them into dust

I thought I was the one
But you turned me into stone
And when you look back at people
You turn them into dust

I thought I was the one
But you turned me into stone
And when you look back at people
You turn them into dust

(Malignia)

I thought I was the one
I thought I was the one
I thought I was the one

09. The Future Is Dark

Music & lyrics by Moonspell
Oh, my son
Too young
To understand
That life is dark
Sometimes
There is just not enough light

And you
You broke me
Every day
But I fought you back
I think
I could die
In the next room
Without you noticing

Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
And where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
What will happen to us?

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
The future is vile
Without you
There's no tomorrow

We
We die
Alone
And we live without
And yes
It hurts me so
To realize
That death won't do us
Won't do us part
But something
Something else might

Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
And where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
What happened to us?

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
The future is vile
Without you
There's no tomorrow

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
But it's all that we've got
Without you
There's no tomorrow

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
The future is vile
Without you
There's no tomorrow

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
But it's all that we've got
Without you
There's no tomorrow

10. La Baphomette

Regardez
Elle s'agite
La Baphomette

Regardez
Elle s'embête
La Baphomette

Le vol
Le ciel
Un homme
Une femme
Oh, la Baphomette

Le vol
Le ciel
Un dieu
Une bête
Oh, la Baphomette

Regardez
Elle s'ennuie
La Baphomette

La-la-ra
La-ra, la-ra
La Baphomette

La-la-ra
La-ra, la-ra
La Baphomette

Regardez
Elle est belle

12. Doomina

Your veil came down
For Judgment Day
What took to the skies?
What took you away?
Tears ran fast
And so did blood
But nothing could break
Through your ice
Break through your ice

We're always close
But never there
What came from the skies
To take you away?
Our children grew
Left us behind
But no one should pay
Such a price

Just another day
And they're all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

Just another day
And it's all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

(Watched us fall)
(In a silent dive)
(Watch our love die)

Just another day
And they're all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

Just another day
And it's all the same
In this world or the next
You bring me down
And I resurrect
In this world or the next

(La, la-ra-ra)

13. Last Of Them

(Black, black, black)
(Black, black, black)
(Black, black, black, black, black, black, black)

Let me guide you to where it's silent
Across the limit of survivors' guilt
The crowds are waiting, their sight was taken
By the burning sun
We're moving on a straight line
Into depths unknown

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
My terms of surrender (surrender)
Nothing but eternity

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
No chance of surrender (surrender)
Before we fight our destiny

Black magic, unconditional love
Black magic unconditional
Black magic, unconditional lust
Black magic irresistible

Let me touch you where it's forbidden
And test the limit of your sanctity
The crowd suspended, they have stripped naked
For the lust of God
The fire burns as if there's no tomorrow
No tomorrow

You know my heart will fail
You know my back will break
And again and again
It won't hurt just for you
To reveal my pain

My curse is to love you (love you)
Until we see the last of us
No chance of surrender (surrender)
Before we fight our destiny

(Black, black, black)
(Black, black, black)
(Black, black, black, black, black, black, black)

You know my heart will fail
You know my back will break
Again and
You know my heart will fail
You know

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
My terms of surrender (surrender)
Nothing but eternity

My curse is to love you (to love you)
Until we see the last of us
No chance of surrender (surrender)
Before we fight our destiny

Black magic, unconditional love
Black magic unconditional
Black magic, unconditional lust
Black magic irresistible

Black magic, unconditional love
Black magic unconditional
Black magic, unconditional lust
Black magic irresistible

14. The Past Is Darker

Without you
There's no tomorrow
Without you
Without you
There's no tomorrow

Oh, my son
Too young
To understand
That life is dark
Sometimes
There is just not enough light

And you
You broke me
Everyday
But I fought you back
I think
I could die
In the next room
Without you noticing

Without you noticing

Life is dark everyday
You die everyday

And yes
It hurts me so
To realize
That death won't do us
Won't do us part
But something
Something else might

We
We die
Alone
And we live without
And yes
It hurts me so
Without you noticing

Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
And where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
What will happen to us?

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
The future is vile
Without you
There's no tomorrow

Without you
There's no tomorrow

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
The future is vile
Without you
There's no tomorrow

(Gotta breathe in)
(Gotta breathe out)
(Oh)
Without you
There's no tomorrow

Gotta breathe in
Gotta breathe out
Up on your feet
Gotta think twice
The future is dark
The future is vile
Without you
There's no tomorrow

(Gotta breathe in)
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
(Gotta breathe out)
And where do we go?
(Oh)
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
What will happen to us?

(Gotta breathe in)
(Gotta breathe out)
(Oh)
Without you
There's no tomorrow
