Tracks



01. Blood On The Milky Way

In the days of tragedy and pain
When blood was shed on our land
A great rumble was heard from above
They came to save our motherland
The night of pride this is at the dawn of a bright future
Dare to dream
And behold the unforeseen

Hooves sparkle on the night sky
Millions of stars are born tonight

The inevitability of doom
In front of our eyes
But the captures of our instincts we are
And we won't surrender

This is a miracle in the night
The great black sky opens wide
And the hooves thundering draws near
We can't lose, we must win

Trust in your visions, follow the sign
Beyond the wall of dreams truth you will find
Ancient wisdom of our forefathers
Endless stream of knowledge
A prophetic revelation

Thousands of flaming arrows like falling stars
Hear their screams before they hit the ground
There is no place to hide in the dark
This is the last night of our enemies
And a glorious dawn for us

It's written in the stars
Carved in the dreams
For generations to come

02. A Deathly Illusion

Walk the forbidden path
Sail the seas of wrath
You are what you hide inside
In the most sombre corner of your heart

Darkness gives you a sense of wonder
A calm eternal
Awakening of feelings unknown
Your mind changes, your soul turns to stone
You are stigmatized

You will have to take a long journey
To understand darkness is not invading
But embrace you with its wrath

On the last days of your life
At your funeral will you comprehend
You are a victim of a fatal illusion

When you dive into the depths of sorrow
Where light fears to enter
You will find the truth you have always scared of

On the last day of your life
explore the edges of your soul and mind
No one wins at this game
But you will be relieved

03. Lost And Not Found

Welcome to my dreams
A fragile place with fragile thrills
Shadows that hide
In the loneliest part of my mind

A spirit lost and found
In the forest of eternal entirety
Rise of an untamed soul
The fire that burns within
Gives me the will to live

But the shreds of past haunt me still
Like blackest clouds they cover me
There is no place to hide from myself
I feel lost, I'm cursed

The blood slowing down in my veins
Whenever I look back I see nothing but hate

Whatever I try to hide or pretend
I'll always be who I am
Gaze into my eyes, what you see is a shadow in the blackest forest
Someone who fears to touch the light

04. Thorns Of Deception

I saw it with my mind's eye
And sensed the growing serenity
The divine order of a higher being
Procreation of an unknown breed

A menace in disguise
A dagger behind symphaty's back
Welcome to fools paradise
The snake coiling around your neck
I see a future that is black and white
Thorns of my skin restricts me to find
My peace of mind

The birth of something new and sinister
Wrapped in deception's cloth
On the fields of glamour
Our feet will not tread

In a senseless peace of mind
Eliminated we are from the circle of happiness and delight

These words repeating in my head again and again
Sometimes love is the key that unlocks hate

A menace in disguise
A dagger behind sympathy's back
Welcome to fools paradise
The snake coiling around your neck
I see a future that is black and white
Thorns on your skin restricts me to find
The calm in you

05. The Venomous Grace

Locked inside the serpent's den
We are depraved and possessed
By a temptation we can't explain
The venomous grace flowing through our veins

Everything we see cannot be real
The infinite flow of tears, an ocean of sorrow
Emotions departed
You are deceived by some illfated vision
Which cannot be erased from your brain

Behold the flames arising
Let the beast control your body

Let the poison work in your veins
Infinite lust and hunger I feel
The earth will crumble
When I oppress what should be released

A wondering soul
Never finds its home in this world
Never finds rest in this slumber

Behold the flames arising
Let the beast control your body

Everything we see vannot be real
The infinite flow of tears, an ocean of sorrow
Emotions departed
You are deceived by some illfated vision
Which cannot be erased from your brain

06. Omen Of Doom

Prelude to disorder
Loosing the sense of time
A fatal interruption in continuity
The guilt, a subtle addiction
An endless river that falls into nowhere

Hoping for better days to come
To replace the years of woe
A higher sense to fear
Turns us to someone we are not

The arms of destiny fondling me
Caressing but then choking
A cold touch of thousands hands around my neck

Waiting for my final breath
Misshaper illusion
Like a mirror that always fakes
The pain that time does not heal
The worst nightmare from which you'll never wake
This is surely an omen of doom

We all try to comprehend
The deepest fears of life and death
But we always fail in this game

You believe in eternity
When tomorrow is uncertain
A false idol you follow
Welcome to cold reality

I don't know reasons
All the questions unanswered
Only sorrow and despair remain
The bells toll, this ain't worth a tear
The doors begin to close and we all disappear

07. Somewhere

The arcane path we walk
Our consciousness is clear and our heart is cold
Through the valley of shadows
A journey that lasts a lifetime

The memories of yesterdays with us on this lonely road
In between shackles and deadly traps
Would you sacrifice your soul?

Striving and fighting till death
We are the legion of the damned

These wounds will heal in our soul
Through nightmarish visions
Our hearts are filled with blackest woe

Stormclouds gather wherever both we roam
You'll never know when this journey ends
Or if it will ever end at all

The seeds of joy planted into barren soil
Sorrow embraces both of us anywhere we go

08. Path To The Motherland

Path to the divine ground
Where sacred blood flowed to feed the soil
And the flowers of glory blossomed

Though our path is full of tragedies and obstacles
The roots are deep beneath the ground

Carry on the heritage of our forefathers
And follow the path to the motherland

Path to divine ground
Where sacred blood flowed to feed the soil

Torches shine in the dark
Our sword is drawn
In our soul and our arrows we trust

We march through the nightsky
Our hearts filled with joy and pride
Our anger will strike down from above
To help our brothers and fight by their side

To find a way to your soul
Is to find the path to the motherland

Torches shine in the dark
Our sword is drawn
On our soul and our arrows we trust
