Tracks



01. The Time (Go Back Through Ages)

Will you come and have a listen
To the story of a legend come true

Will you come and have listen
To the story of a suffering unbearable
Legend untold
Injustice unforgiven
Kingdom forgotten
And king forever damned

02. The Legend (Reign Of The Wicked)

Have you heard of that famous nation
Who had won back their freedom and pride
Have you heard of imposing heroes
Winning the wars

Many good times have passed since those battles
Now the bad years have taken their toll
Only few remember the glory
Ages of poverty have come

Evil-doer king ruins the country
Victorious spirit has died
Search for consolation in legends
If you cannot fight
If you cannot fight him back

With this king the nation has got suppressed
Robbed of all their riches and rights
Frightened are once respected nobles
Lifeless are towns

Think of the legend, remember well
Reckoning is coming, you will hear the voice
Leading the armies bringing them back
Carefully listen, hear the storming voice
Think of the legend, remember well
That day is coming, you will hear the voice
Relentless powers bringing us help
Immortal army, hear the storming voice

They shall drive evil out of the land
Reckoning is coming, listen, hear that voice
Restless are powers bringing us hope
Immortal army, cannot you hear the voice
Cannot you hear that voice

03. The Silence (Comes Before A Storm)

Instrumental

04. The Toady (All Hope Abandon)

Hope for resurrection
That inspired your nation
Dreaming their eternal dream

Now go, join the armies
Kill those who are not willing
Spread our fame, hail the king

Hail your king
Praise his wealthy realm
He is the one who rules your days

Time has come
Win him this war
Glorified be those who will fight

Pray for life in favor
Of your mighty ruler
Never face his angry self

I know you may think of
Forces strange and evil
Raging, screaming night or day...

Hail your king
Praise his wealthy realm
He is the one who rules your days

Time has come
Win him this war
Glorified be those who will fight

05. The Lover (A Kiss Goodbye)

If I could have more
Of these moments, please
The little moments
I am with you

I have never thought that
We might part this way
I have never feared that
I would be gone
Now I see ...

... It may be getting too late
There is not too much
That I could do
I do not want to live like that
No love, no mercy
No sense to my life

I have never thought that
I would leave so soon
This is frightening
You know why ...

I have never thought that
We might part this way
But now I do fear
I will be gone
Cannot you see...

... It may be getting too late
There is not too much
That I could do
I do not want to live like that
No love, no mercy
No sense to my life

06. The King (Skarremar's Pride)

Come tell me of how many
More countries cringe at me
Hey, do they send gifts to me
To show the respect to my might

Do not tell me of how many
Brave soldiers had to die
There will be great more needed
Before I say to rest awhile
Rest awhile

Let me be the one to be feared most
I do not care for the enslaved race
I have been chosen to remind you
Of how fragile are your lives
... Humble lives

I am the one ...
Let me be the one to be feared most
I do not care for the enslaved race
I have been chosen to remind you
Of how easy it is to die
You will die

07. The Army (Dead End Battles)

We are marching in silence
None is turning back
How shall we know
What will come next
Nothing can stop us
Lead us astray
Sealed is their fortune and fate

Sealed is their fate
Lost is their game
There is no other possible way
We all are too far away
We have gone too far from our home
Too far away gone

Guardians will never fail ...
... Guardians will never fail
Shield and sword, spike and blade ...
... Shield and sword, spike and blade

The fields in blood, the battlecry fear
The scars of war so painful to feel

We were beaten, now they will pay
Cowardly weaklings run away

Once beaten army has stormed
Through enemies' homes

08. The Singer (Remember The Legend)

I cannot believe what is going on
With all the people of our land
I wish they had been not treated like
Mere tools and soldiers doomed to die

Why should we suffer evil will
Of cruel magician Skarremar
He is not a king worth sacrifice
Of hundreds soldiers, thousands men

Here comes our vengeance day
Bad powers will not reverse
The fate that is written down in our hearts

Their might will soon be gone
Our men will come back home
And peace will reign over our land

Our vengeance day will soon be
We know the prophecy
We know the way which the legend goes

Dark powers will dissolve
In flash of mighty sword
Held by the courageous, chosen one

09. The Traitor (Roads To Hell)

We are the lonely, we are the damned
Why keep on fighting I do not understand
Because this war is heading nowhere

You gotta see that we are left alone
We will gain nothing by going on
Because this war leads to burning hell
Burning burning hell, white hot burning hell

No one will help us survive this war
We have been forgotten, left on our own
Because this war is heading nowhere

Scared to death I feel strong urge to cry
I want to say that I am through with king
Because this war leads to burning hell
Burning burning hell, white hot burning hell

You sold the nation, gave out our souls

Oh my only lord
No more crazy fighting
Hear me, oh my lord
No more senseless dying

We are the lonely, we are the damned
Why keep on fighting I do not understand
Because this war is heading nowhere

You gotta see that we are left alone
We will gain nothing by going on
Because this war leads to burning hell
Burning burning hell, white hot burning hell

Oh my only lord
No more crazy fighting
Hear me, oh my lord
No more senseless dying

10. The Coward (Hail the King)

Why should I listen to
What you are narrating
No one will come to help
Nation gone blind

Nation gone deaf and blind
To what is taking place
In this exhausted land
Cowardly numb

I do not want to know the legend
Your hopes are just vanity's play
Give up all the dangerous dreams
If you wanna survive

Hail the king
If you know what is precious
Hail the king
If you hope for a future
Hail the king
I do not mind being humbled
Hail the king
Cowardly toady the king
Hail the king
If you know what is precious
Hail the king
If you hope for a future
Hail the king
I do not mind being humbled
Hail the king
Cowardly toady the king

I will never understand
What makes you so sure of
Your sudden salvation
By a brave old one

That legendary one
Should fight against evil
He will fight and release
All enslaved ones

Hail the king
If you know what is precious
Hail the king
If you hope for a future
Hail the king
I do not mind being humbled
Hail the king
You can call me a coward
Hail the king
If you know what is precious
Hail the king
If you hope for a future
Hail the king
I do not mind being humbled
Hail the king
Cowardly toady the king
Hail the king

11. The Dead (Cantata Oscura (Silent Memory II))

Thou shall hear me coming
Breaking all doors in way
Thou shall feel my anger
Falling upon your head

My winter is over
My wounds stopped bleeding
Though they might never heal
My cold sleep is over
Eyes stare wide open
Frost in my heart remains

Here I am coming back
I am what you have prayed for
Do not try to run away
In this mystical hour

I am your death, thou shall not run away
Thou shall not escape your fate
Thou shall not hide from ghosts of the dead
I am the one at their head

Our winter is over
Our wounds stopped bleeding
Though they might never heal
Our cold sleep is over
Eyes stare wide open
Frost in our hearts remains

We are coming back
From the dark side of nowhere
Nobody can make
Us stray from our aim

We are coming back
We are what you have prayed for
Do not try to run away
In this mystical hour

12. The Coming (Mindnight Creatures)

Instrumental

13. The Revenge (Legends Come True)

Coming back feels so strange
I do not recognize the places
The castle has never looked sinister

My task here is simple
Though it may break the evil
Which cannot fight against my sword

I am coming to the palace, breaking its gates
No one will stop me from my aim
Do not you dare step me in the doorway
I shall waste whoever tries to defend Skarremar

His magic has weakened
By powers of hope growing
In pure hearts of the virtuous

Their wish has lead my steps
Out of the land of shadows
I shall turn the evil reign

I am approaching him, his face expresses nothing
But the ultimate fear of his painful end
My sword be hopes' incarnation
Then there will no longer be fear to feed his might
Here comes the change to liberation
King lost his might in glow of my sword

Hear the message
His magic shall not hurt anymore
Now stand up and fight
Stand up and fight
For what is dearest to you
It is your turn to win back your dignity

Do not you dare step me in the doorway
I shall waste whoever tries to defend Skarremar
Here comes the change to liberation
King lost his might in glow of my sword

14. The End (Freedom's Won Back)

Hope that break of day
Has driven away
The way this land had lived by now
Praise that lovely day
Pride is here to stay
And cheer up spirits of our minds

One clash of sword lit castle
And all the town in shine
The evil and its servants
Shall not hide from
Tremendous anger of men
Who have been fortified
By fights and bloody battles
Now stand up and fight

Dark powers are now helpless
Cannot face the pride and light
They will not resist the nation's
Decision
To win back all the glory
Of people brave and bright
Back is the legendary
Fair kingdom

This army is winning, defeating past lords
The guardians are winning us back what seemed lost

By the break of day
Evil has run away
From all the resoluted ones
Praise that lovely day
Pride is here to stay
And cheer up spirits of our minds

One clash of sword lit castle
And all the town in shine
The evil and its servants
Shall not hide from
Tremendous anger of men
Who had been fortified
By fights and bloody battles


By the break of day
Evil has run away
From all the resoluted ones
Praise that lovely day
Pride is here to stay
And cheer up spirits of our minds

This army is winning, defeating past lords
The guardians are winning us back what seemed lost
This kingdom has risen from ashes and dark
Our kingdom has risen to freedom and life

By the break of day
Evil has run away
From all the resoluted ones
Praise that lovely day
Pride is here to stay
And cheer up spirits of our minds

By the break of day
Evil has run away
From all the resoluted ones
Praise that lovely day
Pride is here to stay
And cheer our minds

15. The Beginning
