Fomorian lord ruled with an iron hand
Piracy maintained by this darkened god Tyrannical reign, o'er Eireann's sons Starve and shame, into submission one and all Disciples of chaos - disrupting Destroyer of order - dominating Tipping the balance - oblivion Extinguishing light - darkness Dominate de Danann, strip away then pride Threat them like tenants, there's no place to hide A tribute collected, heads hung in disgrace Hollow eyes of defeat, proud race losing face. Balor - Evil Eye One look - you will die Balor - Evil Eye Unleashed - strangled cry. There's one spark amongst the dying embers Born to ignite red passions raging Lugh Samildeanach, true inspiration Equilibrium by sword and sorcery. Chaos king meets prince of light Fulfilling omens of foresight 'Twas written blood must slay blood Symbolic duel, redress the balance. Sword of Light Quell the darkness Shield of order Vanquish the chaos 02. Anú's Retribution
Manipulating Earth's magic without giving in return
Consequences most dire, making even powerful men squirm Mankind is forever the vermin infesting this world Feel the sheer rage of Anu's retribution unfurled. Eruption in the air - water cascading Tilting of the land - mountains toppling Winds whipping and lashing - hurricane Screaming and raging - pouring rain Rivers rising and rustling - tidal wave Drowned bodies strewn - unmarked grave Slowly suffocate the Goddess Have you no conscience at all? Doomsday bells are chiming Anu regenerates, mankind falls Global destruction, unprecedented scales Disasters as natural as lady Anu's reign Man has sown seeds of poison everywhere Time for Anu to reap is now close at hand. Cleansing her domain to prepare for millenniums new Survival solution, all diseases must be cured The elements always harken to Anu's call Vengeance belongs to Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire 03. The Light The Dark And The Endless Knot
The light and the dark, a marriage eternal
Sundrenched, exultant, darkclad yet infernal Chaos or order, evil or good Definitions abound, clear cut yet confusing. Birth, youth, maturity, and death Wheel of life keeps turning Immortal species spiralling forever Can never unravel the endless knot. Perceptions - one man's dream Perceptions - another man's nightmare Perceptions - follow your own path Perceptions - countless possibilities Give way to instinctive urges Alter ego wells within Reaction to the conscience A force too powerful to deny Try to pacify the rage Darker side is part of you A device for your survival Essential, not altogether evil. Ofttimes I dance in the light On occasion I stalk the dark Light and dark, day and night My soul enshrined, dual delight. Who can say what is light and what is dark? Mankind perceives life to satisfy his own desires Yet, the wheel turns, the seasons fall And unabated the knot continues its endless journey Of life and death. 04. To Rule Was Preordained
Responsibility is the last thing on his mind
Identity crisis enforced by his peers Got to run away to save freedom of choice Cheating destiny to alleviate leadership fears. Wasting time to sate his selfish desires Disconnecting all ties with what has went before Not one man will die under his command Constant dilemma, chilling to the core. And by an amazing twist of fate All paths lead to destiny Irreversible situation arising No honourable man would flee. He was birthed beneath a waxing moon Beltaine's festival of fire the time The wise and holy men proclaimed That all the signs were prophecied To rule was preordained Written in the stars To rule was preordained Magic in the air To rule was preordained Born to reign To rule was preordained Born to rule Enforced training from his youth Time to face inevitable truth To be the fire attracting the flies His enemies come and many will die 05. Morrigan's Domain
Black id the Morrigan on this plain
Dark is her aspect, no remorse or shame Washer at the ford for those who can see The crone and the hag, goddess trinity. Goddess of war, denizen of death Seeker of souls, She awaits your last breath... Nightmare visions, choked with the bodies of the slain Rivers run red, ravens alight on mounds of lifeless forms Feasting horribly on carrion and broken bones, Once proud men, someone's sons and brothers all. Where now is the glory in your war No glory in your war No glory in the grave Hear the shriek of the Morrigan As she circles preparing to dine, To dine upon the slaughtered souls To feast on fresh dead flesh Triumphant scream of ecstasy Exultant in the misery Wallow in the pain Putrid stench of entrails and emptied bowels Morrigan's minions glut on unseeing eyes A picture painted in detail so obscene Morrigan greets all those souls who die. Eternal war she craves Battles unceasing Combatants increasing Sweet stench of blood on the wind Dishevelled warriors, expressions grotesque Dismembered bodies, expressions grotesque Her in her glory, goddess of war Her in her glory, Morrigan's domain. 06. After The Fall
Chaos - signs in the sky
Ruins - seas will rise Drowning - a watery grave Demise - immortals to die After the fall Atlantis sunk not killing them all After the fall Lords of foresight did flee After the fall Knowledge gathered aeons old After the fall Preserve all illuminated lore On crafts of mystic arts they came Borne by the wind On the crest of a wave they rode Children of the sun Across the oceans East and West Seeking chosen lands To be guide to the race of man Welcome magical fleet Be they of the Heavens Be they of the Earth Be they sons of demons Be they sons of man Wherever they go, civilization will grow Enlightened thoughts, pupils to be taught Figures of awe, deities to be Chosen emerald shore, De Danann roar!! 07. Release The Spirit Within
Come sit with me
In this circle of stones And dream Journey with me. Hear the leaves they rustle See but cannot really see A presence in a dependent slumber Alike a door without a key. Seeking, searching Doubt an emotion I now leave behind Seeking, searching Fear an emotion I no longer comprehend. Music primal and soaring Drumbeat of the universe Eerie cosmic winds singing The sighing of unborn stars. Focused to the ultimate point of trance I march to the tune of eternity's dance. I navigate my own flight Engrained thoughts, my insight To leave behind my earthly shell Delve deep within my depthless well. Flying through the astral plain Unsure if you're insane Echoes from the world of man Dizzying distortions of space and time Time has no meaning anymore Begin to forget from whence you've come Allow true power of thought to create That which is reflected in your hear I was the seeker MAny paths I have thread I know now reality Not what I've read. I am the master of my own mind I am the master of my own destiny. 08. Plague Of Ages
There are many nations in this wide wide world
There are many religions in this wide wide world Some people they worship, and others they do not Some worship in private, others ram it down your throat!! The waste is so terrible which has eaten at our hearts The land has been tarnished, old beliefs have been robbed Religions of past millennium, mythomania and fear Replacing ancient deities, with their false gods. A thousand witches died So they burnt ten thousand more Heretics become fair game Anointed in their own blood No rhyme or no reason For their self obsessive beliefs Utter contempt to their faith We'll neither forgive nor forget. They spread their disease throughout many a nation With their silvery tongues, they established their lies The life that was noble, so fierce and so proud Has been stolen from us, truth and honour denied. Brainwashed of the Nazarene, zealots of Islam Believe or be damned, obey the great scam Plague of the Ages, decaying man's soul Eternal stagnation, their selfish goal Are you the one to obey the great scam?? |
