01. On This Rock I Will Build My Church

On this rock I will build my church
On this rock I will kill my hurt

I hear the thunder calling
The law is carved in stone
All hopes and dreams in ardor
Nailed to a golden throne
My feet are sore and burning
I'm coming from afar
A million years divided
But still we're made of stars

We are still waiting while we're all fading
We are destroying what we're creating
On this rock

On this rock I will build my church
On this rock I will kill my hurt

Through all these years of crawling
I've grown an iron heart
Through all these times of falling
I've made rebirth my art
Here in this my own shelter
I've born each heavy stone
Compound the missing pieces
It's done, I am home

We are still waiting while we're all fading
We are destroying what we're creating
On this rock!

On this rock I will build my church
On this rock I will kill my hurt

We are still waiting while we're all fading
We are destroying what we're creating
On this rock

On this rock I will build my church
On this rock I will kill my hurt
On this rock - we are still waiting -
I will build my church - while we're all fading
On this rock I will kill my hurt
On this rock - we are destroying -
I will build my church - what we're creating
On this rock I will kill my hurt
On this rock

02. Loreley

She knows her grief is a beast
That kills from inside
She lifts the souls from their home
At aerial high tide

No moments alone, no sorrow to share
In search of a key you know is not there
Oh no, Lorelei

With arms to the sky
And dreams in the dirt
Being stronger than death
Does not heal the hurt

Lorelei Lorelei

Cry Lorelei, cry for Eden Lorelei

She's starved of light no respite
Each breath's a burden
Time can't reverse her grim curse
Of life eternal

No moments alone, no sorrow to share
In search of a key you know is not there
Oh no, Lorelei, oh no, Lorelei

Cry Lorelei, cry for Eden Lorelei
Scream for me

03. Black Halo

You've been told that I'm the devil
But my blood is your blood
In shame my, my blood stains your hands
You are the murderer of my fire and my sense

You threw me away
What should I do now
Black halo is given to me
You close your eyes
Now when I need you
This black halo will burn me alive
Burn me alive

You called me, you called me a sinner
You still talk forgiveness
But now your dreams are haunted by your guilt

You threw me away
What should I do now
Black halo is given to me
You close your eyes
Now when I need you
This black halo will burn me alive
Burn me alive

Tie the bind
Here forever we're entwined in dark and light
In shame my blood stains your hands

You threw me away
What should I do now
Black halo is given to me
You close your eyes
Now when I need you
This black halo will burn me alive
Burn me alive

Tie the bind
Here forever we're entwined and I will find you
Like they'll never ever find the way to heaven's light

04. In Our Hands

Our memory is all
We have left to feel alive
In the gloom we see
The night feeds lies to our eyes

We are the last ones awake

In our hands
It's in our hands
We beat the band
We can stop, we can stop searching
In the air
It's in the air, everywhere
We can stop, we can stop searching

Elevate, escape from the lot we have to share
In the doom combined
There's salvation everywhere

We are the last ones awake

In our hands
It's in our hands
We beat the band
We can stop, we can stop searching
In the air
It's in the air, everywhere
We can stop, we can stop searching

Drowned in fears, smote by life
We gave birth, but can't survive
Countless years trapped in scorn
We've deserved to be reborn

In our hands
It's in our hands
We beat the band
We can stop, we can stop searching
In the air
It's in the air, everywhere
We can stop, we can stop searching

In our hands
It's in our hands
We beat the band
We can stop, we can stop searching
In the air
It's in the air, everywhere
We can stop, we can stop searching

05. Morgana

Fate will echo between the worlds
Through the shores of the fallen souls
To this land that I served with pride
Visions clear in the fading light

And we walk through the shadows of pain
Come and walk with me, to the end!

All is condemned!
So, walk to the end!
Free from regret!
Yet, will I ascend to her?

Will I meet Morgana soon?

Bodies wilt but the mind's serene
For a life worthy of her grace
My desire as I depart
Give my piece back to her
Lone heart, to the end!

All is condemned!
So, walk to the end!
Free from regret!
Yet, will I ascend to her?

Will I meet Morgana soon?

I have to run through
The shadows of hate
To be hers again, to the end!

All is condemned!
So, walk to the end!
Free from regret!
Yet, will I ascend to her?

Will I meet Morgana soon?

06. Haythor

Goddess of the void

Down here in the pit
Where only blind eyes see
My compass is the heart
And sheer brutality

It's the primitive in man
That is taking control
In the season of the Haythor
Reversal of the pole

Darling, your eyes were full of darkness
Now someone else holds what was mine
Darling, your womb gave birth to stars and light
Now there is hollowness inside
And emptiness behind

Goddess of the void

Out here in the fields
Where only instincts dwell
On the quest to find my fellow
I'm sensating your smell

Through the forest of the coming
And the planes of the before
In the night of the apocalypse
We reunite the core

Darling, your eyes were full of darkness
Now someone else holds what was mine
Darling, your womb gave birth to stars and light
Now there is hollowness inside
And emptiness behind

Goddess of the void

Through the forest of the coming
And the planes of the before
In the night of the apocalypse
We reunite the core

Through the forest of the coming
And the planes of the before
In the night of the apocalypse
We reunite, reunite the core

Darling, your eyes were full of darkness
Now someone else holds what was mine
Darling, your womb gave birth to stars and light
Now there is hollowness inside
And emptiness behind

Darling, your eyes were full of darkness
Now someone else holds what was mine
Darling, your womb gave birth to stars and light
Now there is hollowness inside
And emptiness behind

Goddess of the void

07. Naxxar

Born a child of the night and that stain taints forever
Black of heart and the dark is the one place you treasure
There is not one legend who has wasted life
Wishing worth beyond earth is absurd in the never, death won't die

So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust

He will creep as you sleep, take your dreams and debase them
Traumatized, your demise is his prize when awakened
There is not one legend who'd not realized
The deceased find no peace in the place where he takes them

So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust

The wind's an omen, one soul is stolen
The wind's an omen, one soul is gone

So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust
So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust

Dragging down is effortless, lifting up takes love
Dragging down is effortless. welcome to the dust

08. Cut Me Out

How can I retake you when you turn your back on me
You left me alone in the darkest hour - the darkest hour
Is there a place where we could find, find our love again
It's beaten and bruised, but the only thing given to us

Powerless, naked, on my knees
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out

Too much, too soon, too high on fire
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out

Forgive me, forgive me
Let the tears fall down like rain
Forgive me, forgive me
And I love you till the end

Fear casts the longest shadow
Turning your heart into glass
No, don't you move or we both will break

We can't go on in this thunderstorm
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out

No chance for us we're too high on fire
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out

Forgive me, forgive me
Let the tears fall down like rain
Forgive me, forgive me
And I love you till the end

We can't go on, a last kiss in the storm
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out

One day reborn, one star and one thorn
Don't cut me, cut me, cut me out

Let the tears down like rain

Forgive me, forgive me
Let the tears fall down like rain
Forgive me, forgive me
And I love you till the end

09. The Mortarian

Through skies we glide, creatures of combat
Beliefs collide to serve the bombast
Victims of none, peace is a weapon
We fight as one without confession

Fly so high through disharmony
First to die but the're calling me, is this glory?

I was born to die this way
I have sworn to fight my fate

Woes cast aside to face the menace
We've sacrificed, seen comrades perish
Inflict our will, imposed repression
We have no guilt, free from. transgression

Is this glory?

I was born to die this way
I have sworn to fight my fate
I was born to die this way
I have sworn to fight my fate

We've taught to conform to the Mortarian code
I wonder if there's another home, is this glory?

10. Under The Sun

We long for redemption
A natural discipline
Her prestige - our purpose
But passions do lurk within

Am I weak and given to lust?
Am I strong to do what I must?

Morgana, forgive!
Oh, Morgana, forgive!

Under the sun we all share the glow
But some of us feel the black heat of true low

Falling free from the orbit of lies
Loveless dreams when I close my eyes
Under the sun

There's a point before the deed to which you can't return
When thoughts bleed into action
Guilt finds a heart to burn

Am I weak and given to lust?
Am I strong to do what I must?

Under the sun we all share the glow
But some of us feel the black heat of true low

Falling free from the orbit of lies
Loveless dreams when I close my eyes
Under the sun

Morgana, forgive!
Oh, Morgana, forgive!

Under the sun we all share the glow
But some of us feel the black heat of true low

Falling free from the orbit of lies
Loveless dreams when I close my eyes
Under the sun

11. In Darkness, In Light

Thrown in icy waters
Underneath the waves
Sinking mesmerized

I'm your heavy anchor
Where the light can't conquer
Oh, we were meant to drown

I am, I'm your enemy
When you're powerless
I'm your enemy

In darkness, in light

I hold all your secrets
Underneath my skin
Faith is hope in bleakness

I am, I'm your enemy
When you're powerless
I'm your enemy

In darkness, in light

12. Forevermore

We left so many lives behind
That grow like shadows in the past
We hoped for many flames, but saw them turn to ash
We've been born so many times
And died so many more
We went through misery
Is this what we are living for?

Forevermore we're in this together
Forever day and night
And we could reign forever
Forevermore making history together
Forever dark and light
Like this is the last day of our life
Forevermore

We survived so many fights
We were led astray
And yet, we're still alive
No deadlock we can't break
Will you be carried by the flames
When it's time to end the woe?
Or will you go with the ashes in the grey?

Forevermore we're in this together
Forever day and night
And we could reign forever
Forevermore making history together
Forever dark and light
Like this is the last day of our life
Forevermore

We'll be writing history with our visionary strength
We'll be writing history as peace will come at length
We'll be writing history with Utopian ideas
We'll be writing history, we'll be living without fear

Forevermore we're in this together
Forever day and night
And we could reign forever
Forevermore making history together
Forever dark and light
Like this is the last day of our life
Forevermore

Like this is the last day of our life
Forevermore

13. Ruins

They walked this withered wasteland
The taste of ash in every breath
A violent past forsaken
The creeds did breed contempt

Seeking grace and beauty in the wreckage
Pure wisdom hides away in the decay
The shadowed truth foretold the message
The darkest heart can lead the right way

Here in ruins life still grows
Here in ruins, a blooming rose
Here in ruins love remains
We will rise again

So don't let your downfall be destiny
Don't blame the stars
So don't let your downfall be destiny
The moment is ours

All monuments now remnants
The grandiose reduced to dust
Those sacred names abolished
This future we must trust

It is our duty to replenish
Envisage life eclipsing death and fate
From sallow youth to the decrepit
The tarnished start to reason faith

So don't let your downfall be destiny
Don't blame the stars
So don't let your downfall be destiny
The moment is ours

Here in ruins life still grows
Here in ruins, a blooming rose
Here in ruins love remains
We will rise again

Hope is here, so near
Hope is here, a new life
Hope is here, so near
Hope is here, a new life

So don't let your downfall be destiny
Don't blame the stars
So don't let your downfall be destiny
The moment is ours

I walk this withered wasteland
A sense of purpose in each step
Wherever this path takes us
We'll tread with pure intent
