Across the sea they live, plotting against us all
A constant shade laid over our empire A rusty nail into the eternal city's crown Now it's time to wield the deadly iron and to sail on A thousand ships, the Roman pride, By Scipio's hand they're led to war Rise, rise, let Carthago pay Sail, sail, across the sea Rise, rise, let Carthago fall Fight, fight, 'till the end The Cato's words burn in the heart of every man The salt must be spread on the ruins, nothing will remain Oh mighty lord of shadows, Hades, we're calling you Come witness our triumph Carthago delenda est Neither gods must dare Roma, On your knees or die And once again the eagle hammered on these wasted land Will show the power of Roman soldier's steel Rise, rise, let Carthago pay Sail, sail, across the sea Rise, rise, let Carthago fall Fight, fight, 'till the end. 02. Neon Karma Music & lyrics by Stormlord
Machines are treading on our ruins,
By human hands they were built to serve us all Face the evolution, time to leave our thrones behind This is the day when the robots walk the earth No flesh, no races in the age of Cyber Christ No blood through the bodies, Neon Karma is closing in No room for weak emotions, pain or tears The mankind spawn, watching us through metal eyes Welcome my sons My new messiah Staring at the clouds where laser angels fly Future looks so bright Gaze into a moon whose circuits light the night Gleaming through the rain We celebrate our end One mind to rule the nations Mankind: inferior breed One doom: annihilation Mankind: evolution's prey Let us burn No flesh, no races in the age of Cyber Christ No blood through the bodies, Neon Karma is closing in Neon Karma is closing in, let your kingdom come... 03. Legacy Of The Snake Music & lyrics by Stormlord
Stones on the altars are the icons where you live,
The only way for the disciples to sanctify the snakes You keep many treasures, The foundations of your realm are made of gold Bhogavati, where dreams chase reality Ananta, the snake, where the master sleep Kaliya, the king, slave to Krisna's dance By water, by fire, the underworld they rule By water, by fire, by fire, by fire ...All enslaved by Shiva's grace Gods, watch upon us, Let us reach the Shakti and leave all this pain Called existence, let us be one with you Bowls are now empty, We deprive our bodies of all of the food for you glory Great Naga come free us all, at last free us all, now Kadru Rise, ancient gods of Nirvana from above they stare Cosmic lights drop on the earth from the lord Ganesh sacred eyes Come worship, come worship the Naga's flame Their karma, their karma lives on We bow down, we bow down to Naga's faith, praying the gods Stones on the altars are the icons where you live, The only way for the disciples to sanctify the snakes You keep many treasures, The foundations of your realm are made of gold Sacred Naga let us reach your splendour Ananta, the snake, where the master sleep Kaliya, the king, slave to Krisna's dance By water, by fire, the underworld they rule By water, by fire, by fire, by fire... 04. Emet Music & lyrics by Stormlord
I am the soulless muddy giant
From the water and the earth I was born Yes, I am a creature of the rabbi, To protect the walls of the ghetto I live Son of holy writings, where magic and pure faith become as one I am Yossel See my body growing, I'm changing my stature day by day I am the golem To serve you all This is my mission I'll serve you all No, I don't want the shem to be torn asunder Restless and obedient, the guardian of the synagogue I'll be forever Even when my body will return to ashes and to dust I'll be there Ritual has begun Emet! Spell all the letters of the name divine, The sacred mystery of god With the clay of the moldava Creation and denial must be engraved on my forehead The menorah's burning, the ritual begins, In circles he walks around me while praying My lord, I'm breathing! I am the soulless muddy giant From the water and the earth I was born Yes, I am a creature of the rabbi, My mind is empty, to live I need commands Emet As my existence come from the power of a word, My end is tied to only one letter whose presence changes Into my death Emet, Emet is the word! 05. The Castaway Music & lyrics by Stormlord
The boat lays destroyed on the rocks
There is no sign of my bride The sea now it's peaceful and quiet Am I alone on this island? Am I alone in this hell? As foaming waters are chanting their songs Sands are the clothes that I wear As waves caress my empire made of wood, Salt is the crown on my head Emperor among these wastelands, The clouds are my roof, Time is frozen at my desert court Stones are slowly becoming the throne of a god On dead leaves I walk like a king I am the castaway These shores are now my kingdom As foaming waters are chanting their songs Sands are the clothes that I wear As waves caress my empire made of wood, Salt is the crown on my head Here, lost in sorrow, I start questioning 'bout myself Am I still the same man When morality looses all its chains? Isn't ethics just a cape that we wear To hide the beast that we are? Loneliness is like a mirror to us, It reveals nature of all mankind I cannot remember my real name, The past fades away, And sometimes I stare at the far Skyline of water and fire, but I don't know why It's too late, I've found the real me The castaway... 06. Scorn Music & lyrics by Stormlord
Brother on the bloodfields, father of all wars
I cross the heart of every human being Don't trust if they are weeping, The enemies are wolves among the sheep Empathy it's a lie And my face you'll see at the end of every weapon Steal another life, the scorn you must embrace And my call you'll hear while searching deep inside where Breeds the will to kill the scorn, the scorn you must embrace The scorn you shall not fear Blood is running faster, pumping all the adrenaline There's no time to think before the final rush The leaders are now screaming the commands, Honour, valour, and obedience blind your mind And choose your faith... Now take my hand Soon this blood red ground you'll walk Can't you hear? It's the call of the battle, In the name of scorn you'll fight So trust your fury, I will justify your sins When the day it's over, thousand bodies lie, The victory is tasting not so sweet Just call me primal instinct or call me the way you like the most Since I belong to yourself And my face you'll see at the end of every weapon Steal another life, the scorn you must embrace And my call you'll hear, while searching deep inside where Breeds the will to kill, the scorn, the scorn you must embrace The scorn you must embrace... 07. And The Wind Shall Scream My Name Music & lyrics by Stormlord
Ithaca is hidden far,
Beyond the horizon eternity awaits I feel burning desire To go where no man has gone before This is the curse upon me A madness whose name is love for knowledge Volta la nostra poppa al mattino Dei remi facem ali al folle volo Raging waters are shaking the ship And the sailors are too old Wrinkled are the hands holding the oars, They surrender to punishment divine Sail for one last time Della nova terra un turbo nacque E percorse del legno il primo canto Tre volte il girar con tutte l'acque Alla quarta levar la poppa in suso E la prora ire in com'altrui piacque Infin che'l mar fu sopra noi richiuso ...And the wind shall scream my name Forever in time The memories will live on ...And the wind shall scream my name As water steals my words left unspoken I see my friends going down In the afterlife maybe I will find some new shores Hercules columns Their silhouette shall seal my cold grave The sea, my only lover, Will tell the world Ulysses' story Sail for one last time... 08. Dimension: Hate Music & lyrics by Stormlord
These painful days now left behind engraved our souls,
Frustration and anger paved the path to our rebirth Never forgive, never forget, again we rise As you can see, betrayals, once again we're standing tall Among the ruins fire burns, stronger than fate When sorrow ends, it comes the time to face our weakness Let the doors open wide to the Dimension: Hate Erase the past The scum will face its doom The scum will laid to rest Drowned in blood Embers below the ashes can burn the toughest skin So beware, you liars, vengeance is a hidden blade Catartica all the ideals fall Catartica in the end, mercy lies buried in dust My soul hides a song of melancholy, a tune from the times When the gold at the end of the rainbow was kept just a whisper away Collect the suffering and channel it inside A new light will crawl through the night and shine brighter than sun Hypocrisy infects this earth like pestilence The darkest sin of mankind, emptiness of mind, Is turning humans into cold machines And like machines of iron, they will leave nothing behind Among the ruins fire burns, stronger than fate When sorrow ends, will come the time to face our weakness Let the rage led us to the Dimension: Hate Erase the past The scum will face its doom The scum will laid to rest Drowned in blood... 09. Stormlord Music & lyrics by Stormlord
When the light vanishes behind the clouds
We raise in sign of victory our weapons to the sky As he comes the heavens are trembling Under the mark of glory he was baptized in blood From the darkness of the night skies The Stormlord will ride, ride again We kneel before you, bringer of fear and pain Lord of the rain and lightning, hallowed be thy name Raised by fire and thunder, immortal he became From the darkness of the night skies The Stormlord will ride, ride again And when the battle is raging his fist will lead All of us to the sacrifice On this day, we will fight 'till death Soldier we are glorybound, the storm is on our side Resound the horns louder, Stormlord will be our guide Burying in dust all the enemies' corpses, grass is bloodlike red Some cowards try to run away, but noone must survive All the omens tell our victory, no mercy And the hostile steel we shall not fear, We head for a doom of triumph... |
