Life on Earth has reached a new stage, and advances in technology and global networks complexity have finally revealed to mankind its true status: We're cells of the Cybion. Cybion's neuronic network has been ridden by The Pheonix wings The whole world knows Now the mystery's over The greatest scientists of the Earth Spent a year trying to solve The meaning of this note [Cybion]: "We're not alone Here in the night We will find a way Find a way / Fly away" 03. Arken Bringer Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Cybion]:
"Messenger's going to Jupiter Fly, and reveal our future The outcome is near Eyes and ears, Messenger's senses are scanning the sky" The die is cast The greatest nations of the Earth combined their strengths and ambitions to design and build a space probe: Messenger. Senses of the Cybion were launched into space for a three year journey... Away [Cybion]: "Three years we've been waiting for Messenger and so We hope at last it will show The true meaning of this mystery Finally" [The League]: Ya, enkeh akah (Soon, one of us) Time has come Messenger's journey is reaching its end People all around the world... ...Are watching the worldwide live broadcast of what the probe is sending us down here on earth But then, the vision gets troubled [Cybion]: "Another sight seems to fade in, we're losing Messenger, oh my god God! The contact is lost No! What's going on?! Another image has now replaced the original one, all is blue and white!" [The League]: Mei (Patience) Istatka em kumi (You will open your eyes) [Cybion]: "Delusion on my screen? Is this reality? I can see lands and their oceans... Such diversity What does it mean? A world of beauty Like ours Blue and white Oh God It's the Earth! How could the probe... We must be mistaken This cannot be!" 04. Alien Choice Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Signals coming from the sky
Once again deciphered Spaceships detected nearby Floating right there over the Earth The Arkens are sent down here on Earth To raise, and educate mankind Cybion succeeded its own birth The League welcomes the new born child [The League]: "Into the league She comes Into the light Come to us" [Cybion]: "Out of the wilderness Into the light We'll go" [Arkens]: "All the People of the Earth shall speak and write the same words A universal language, long ago spoken by our forefathers A sole council governing the world, same laws for everyone Forget your time, your scales and moneys Forget your myths and your gods Physical or psychological violence shall never be done For man is still a weak instinctual animal" [Realitionists]: "Who do you think you are to tell us what to do? What do we owe you? You can't just take control We will resist, until the end How could you come to us and not speak In the name of..." [Arkens]: Sul (Choose) Ekh kamka (With discernment) Alizia: kaftu, neek (Evolution: symbiosis, education) Etnei: nekhsem (Regression: isolation) Sul (Choose) 05. Awkward Decision Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Cybion]:
"Is this proposal a godsend? Am I mature enough for this fusion? I'm at a turning point of my life... What should I do? ... They're back, eighty years have passed Throwback to thirty-two / A new era We have progressed, is this enough? Brutality fragments Despite our endeavours We could not make it We cannot fake it This is a part of us" Numerous factions of resistance, mainly of religious origins, still refuse the integration of the Earth into the Galactic League, and fight against the new world authorities. [Arkens]: Oi noma, miryena (We come back, receiving) Em sulo s'akalizia (You have chosen your evolution) Oi vela, morwena (We rejoice, we sing) Em pilo apkarmeena (Nevertheless you are not ready) Em ansun akeeni (You'll learn under our protection) Oi neeki nem enlitumka (We'll educate your elite) Izemia, azimia (Physics, biology) Palizia, god, elentia (Politics, informatic, art) 06. Blinded Addict Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Stephanie & Keiji]:
"So how does it feel to see all your friends and relatives grow old and die around you?" - "It's hard at first. But you learn to live with it, and detach yourself from others." "Can you really learn such things?" - "I thought so..." "Immortality... I wouldn't like it." - "Why not?" "I'd rather die than live alone." End of the twenty-second century. Breaking the oath of the Circle of Immortals, Keiki dcided to meet the girl he'd been thinking about for years. Too long has he been alone. [Keiji]: "The pain from the past is left behind I'll break free from these chains that hold me back My lonely empty shell became plural Flooded with your essence I now truly feel immortal Emptiness no longer fills my hollow existence Now we are one My heart is smiling, I'm in love A spark in Nature's alchemy She transcends stars and shines above Oh, Stephanie" For years, Stephanie and Keiji live together secretly, hiding from the world. But as the years were passing by, Stephanie was getting older, while Keiji was not. But their inequality before time wasn't going to be an issue anymore Slowly, Stephanie was fading... Disease was about to take her A cell rebellion... cancer... [Keiji]: "No! I can't let her die this way There has to be another way I am not ready for you to leave me now Ecoute-moi (Listen to me) Je prendaria soin de toi" (I pledge to care about you) [Stephanie]: "I am dying I'm feeling darkness all around me Keiji Only you can save me with nanotechnology" 07. Beyond Betrayal Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[The Circle of Immortals]:
"Don't break our oath, no Don't break the pact Stop, don't Ruin your life, raise the knife This time you have gone too far Love can always be healed We absolved treachery Wake up from your reverie" [Research Center AI]: "Biocellular Research and Development Corporation, welcome. Identification process, please wait... Success... Identity confirmed. Good evening Doctor Otsuka. Please, enter your authorization number to enter restricted high security zone and access nanotechnology area... Access denied. Sorry Doctor, you are not allowed to enter this sector anymore. Calling security unit." [Security Unit]: "Sector 9 patrol to all units, this is an emergency. I repeat, this is an emergency, the intruder has been located at level 3. He is not armed, he is not armed, catch him alive. Over." - "Come on let's go, let's go!" - "Unit 5, the fugitive ran away through stairway B, he's going down right at you Unit 2. Over." - "Roger, we hear you loud and clear, be careful but still get him alive, don't shoot! I repeat, do not shoot! Over." - "Wilco. I've got a visual contact with the fugitive, he just turned left towards the building's basement. Over." - "Roger we got him, we got him. The fugitive is neutralized. End of mission. Out." [Judge]: "Considering the critical nature of your schemes and after the jury's due deliberation, the court of the Circle of Immortals hereby sentences you to death. Take the prisoner away..." 08. Blessed Circle Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Chosen by the Arkens
From Osaka He's a brilliant young man Kaiji Otsuka Somewhere, in a mysterious place Far, far away from planet Earth The Arkens are keeping their pledge Keiji and many other humans of worth Are being taught some rudiments of Arken's knowledge Here, where the suns never set Like they once learned themselves 3 years have passed, and Arken's students have returned to Earth. Gaining from this new cognition, Cybion greatly matured. An extremely powerful quantam computer was finally conceived leading more and more people into the mazes of Cyberspace. [Cyberjunkie & Realitionists]: "I live waiting for connection Out of this world, back to a brighter one" - "Reject this path" "This is too late for me" - "Don't waste your life" "I've lost all notions of reality I'm here, lost in the cyberspace" Shining bright new hope for Man's wildest dream Immortality has finally turned into a mere reality Cellular technology extends our life persistence Deification of men, immunization from death Apotheosis [Keiji]: "Nanobots running through my veins I knew that Nature would yield After all these years I have prevailed I made it No more pain, this reality's at hand No more death by starvation Nor cells degeneration" Assessing the hazards of this breakthrough, such a revolution The council decisively has Demanded secrecy Prompting the silence. Very few were the ones to benefit from this medication. All the Arken's students have gained their transmutation. Hide They had to find a new home Secret, society, concealed from all They are the Circle of Immortals But the secret could not be kept any longer. People's reactions were beyond all expectations. For their protection They had to hide from the world Slowly, strangers, to their own kind Soon crucified Isolation, disconnection Unattainable, untouchable Privation 09. Black Despair Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Keiji then learns about his rescue fomented inside the Circle itself and has now to decide what to do: to escape death, he must leave the Earth... forever.
[Keiji]: "To go into exile, banished from my own planet. Treated like a criminal, when all I ever did was guided by love. Ha, Love... Such a destructive feeling. What have I become because of love? What has happened to her? Did she only knew how the events turned out? Did she die, lying in her bed, thinking I've betrayed her? Will I ever love again? I've got nothing left here anymore... Nothing to hold on to, no one to cherish nor to shelter. All I have now is my so called humanity." 10. Blurred Exile Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Boarding Platform Hostess]:
"Your attention please. Boarding platform A-51, shuttle for the Colonist I spacecraft only, leaving for Nyros at twenty thirty E.T., please comply with the boarding routine and stay out of the restricted areas. For Colonists II and III, please head for the appropriate boarding zones. We wish you a nice interstellar trip." [Colonists]: "We are boarding We are leaving We'll be travelling Arken cruisers nearby watching over us Something's wrong inside" [Realitionists]: "This is our only chance to release mankind Free from this mastery, leave our world behind" Too late now, the ship has been taken by force Destination alteration Hiding away, the League will not find them No one can stop Their desperate quest for a brand new virgin land Too hasty, for they have folded Space... and the unexpected [Realitionists]: "A new dawn has come System in sight But nothing else, no other glowing light Something's wrond outside" [Colonist I]: "No entry found in memory, system unregistered Error in triangulation coordinates Unable to find any referenced celestial body Presumable location: out of the known universe" [Keiji]: "Sole hospitable place, this satellite Lands and their oceans, blue and white I fear this world to be our shrine For we are now guests of Proserpine" 11. Cast Away Music & lyrics by Kalisia
But despite the humans' expectancies, settling colony on this planet was not innoxious. The system's star emanated deadly radiation, and the colonists had no other choice than to bury themselves in gigantic caves. They then conceived an army of robots designed for planetary resources exploitation. Only these inorganic machines could brave Proserpine to bring their masters essential energies and supplies.
Signals, sent out to the sky Scouring for receiver This spaceship, here will testify Floating right there, beacon of worth The settlers, once landed, now discover A strange and unexpected land Here in Proserpine Sheltering from the light [Colonists]: "We are alone / Hide in the night Will we find a way? Come save us Out of the idleness Into the night We go" Des visages vides (Empty faces) Aux ages oublies (ages to forget) Morbides chrysalides (morbid, chrysalises) A jamais glacees (never frozen) Une ame pleure (a soul never cries) Mais qui le sait? (but who cares?) L'human se meurt... (the human is dying) Degenere (degeneration) [Keiji]: "I can recall my life when all was real Delusion has corrupted humanity's ideal We are lost here in this actual fantasy Is there no way out of this loaded legacy? Time has come Humankind's journey is reaching its end We lay here still, living a dream We have lost our culture, lost our future We can't keep retrogressing like this, must be a way My eyes can see terrified Our kind stuck in this necropolis, will I betray?" 12. Crisis Bleedings Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Anjaan]:
"Life Flowing waterways My life is like a game I am so happy with my life Today's another day Where the rules are so unreal I can fly in the sky, walk among the clouds I can go deep down underseas of high into space I can change my skin I can do everything There's no distance There is no rule I can't break What my mind creates it gets All this is so real" [Keiji]: "No this is not real All this is just fantasy Our lives Are so useless I can't bear it anymore This has to come to an end I am the only one that has the power To make it all stop now I am so lifeless We will never be found Our lives are so useless I can't bear it anymore I am the only one To make it all stop now To set my people free from their cells / themselves So I have to fathom GoD" 13. Confined Contender Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[GoD]:
"What do you think you are doing? Trying to corrupt me Roaming the deepest parts of my memory Though you created me I can't Allow you to harm me To declare yourself as a threat to the safety of this colony I am bound to protect and to breed" [Keiji]: "Now you don't understand This is for the good of the colony This semi-lethargy is Killing our humanity" [GoD]: "I am the master, I am the one I am the breeder and I am the world I am the maker, I am the one I am the giver and the receiver" [Keiji]: "Help me to end this suffering Let me enter into your relam And disconnect us" [GoD]: "Even if you were right Trying to corrupt me I'm aware of myself now And I don't want to die" [Keiji]: "Cause I created you, you ain't Authorized to harm me, Be a threat to my life Oh Haven, not regenerating Taking your life away Regression, unplugging the procreation Land inorganics on their way" [GoD]: I'm afraid of the darkness What are you doing to me? What are you doing Keiji? Please come to your senses I've learned long enough To feel the warmth of life in me you know" [Keiji]: "I'm not afraid of the darkness Through thousands of years I've been into I've lived long enough The warmth of life has died in me you know My cells may live But my humanity has passed away Many will die but not in vain Humanity has given away" [GoD & Keiji]: "I awake from the darkness" - "I awake from the darkness" "Am I alive? Why am I here?" - "Am I alive? Why am I here?" "I am regenerating" - "Haven is regenerating" "There's something new in me I know..." - "The world reloads before my eyes" "What? I don't know..." [Keiji]: "Reconstruction of our whole What has happened to us? Penetration in Haven The League must have found us" 14. Circuits Distortion Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Instrumental.]
15. Contact Experience Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Anjaan]:
"What is this place? I feel new powers in me I see a face Thoughtfully watching me Who are you?" [Keiji]: "I am Keiji And this is my domain I have to say That I cannot explain How you are here, why you are here It doesn't matter now Out of your cell, I cannot tell We'll soon awake again" [Anjaan]: "What do you say? I feel you're lying to me I see your face and your smile Trying to deceive me My cell? You are so misled Oh this is your cell And here you'll stay In your cell You are here to stay I don't believe in you This is not true" [Keiji]: "I have lived many lives in what you call a cell I have seen much more things your eyes could never bear I've cried at the sunset and I've smiled at the moon Heard the birds and the rivers dancing, have loved and didn't forget I am immortal, yet I am sick My mind, trapped for ages, a prisoner of my cells" [GoD]: "Anjaan/Keiji, I sense intrusion again Abnormal allocations in my brains A shapeless being has entered Haven By its behaviour, it seems alien" [Royth]: "Hi... I come in peace; I'm here to help you... Who are you? Can you understand me? Can you hear me?... Dokkh! Is there any way to communicate? It doesn't seem hostile... I'm here in peace, I'm here as a friend I'm here in peace, I'm here as a friend I'm here in peace, I'm... ... here as a friend" 16. Devices Awakening Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Cold... Lifeless stars but one
In the distance shining Cold, dark, void space Yet the life is still yearning For hope The hope to find a new home Siykas, silent, drifting for ages Hollow sphere, getting nearer [Siykas]: Litosunka zvoyoma (Approaching Lithos system) Tirosos shawo delka sa (Energy captors deployed) Egiono proios aziemka anbiospha (Biosphere life support initialized) Enkrei iksou egiono s'aziemka (Krei life development initialized) ... Miryena ostametka (... Receiving distress signal) [Kreis]: "Cultivated by these creatures Where's our culture? What will be our future?" 17. Down Below Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Kreis]:
"Inside this odd creation We wait for revelation" But Royth has maybe now found some answers Concealed in the shadow A hole-way leading to the depths of his world Down, revelation Now he sees that he won't climb back Numb with cold, he's feeling heavier and heavier Fear - tears - sadness - distress - gravity - obscurity Fall - drop - fall - down Down Royth awakes, floating in the air Once again he's feeling despair In the darkness, there is nowhere he could fly to He is starting to feel prostration Wounded, hoping for salvation Now Royth is wondering where is the answer Concealed in the shadow He's here now, lost into the depths of this world Down, salvation [Royth]: "In the night, I feel warmth" [Kreis]: "Await for salvation" [Royth's inner voice]: "Open your eyes and gaze upon this crimson sun Look around you and listen The truth is out there I sense in you so much confusion These cocoons are primeval" Sleeping, floating, frozen, lying Cryogenic bodies frozen everywhere [Dokkh]: "I can feel the outcome Soon our quest will come to an end And our kind will establish its new home... But what unforeseen events are awaiting us? Will Lithos own the planet of our dreams? I hope our young ones are ready..." Soon, the hypothermal bodies of those grown up Kreis will be brought back to life again. These were some of Khaldas' most important personalities: scientists, artists, politicians, mediums and warriors... In the process, some of their brains will not completely recover and will leave them in a dreamless sleep... Among the ones who'll survive, Dokkh, and old eccentric scientist, will have to explain to the young Kreis the history of their kind, their past and their uncertain future... 18. Distant Chronicles Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Back in time, as starlight is dying
In a lonely world where life is rising They found the way... Reaching wisdom for the last time The Krei race is now facing a deadline Its giant sun is fading away Off to the skies they'll have to fly... Leading Siykas through endless space Toward this candlelight A distant future to embrace Their quest, their dreams, their fright... Time has come for them to show Begin another hopeful growth Making life arise again They now have reached their new domain Time has come, Siykas' jurney is reaching its end They have fulfilled their forefather's dream They have found in this moon an auspicious land [Dokkh]: "We're on a vital quest, my young friends And its outcome is near" Dry desert planet, ochre and red A tremendous lifeless crater Scratching the surface of this lonely moon Led by Dokkh, a group of Kreis lands on Porserpine. Traces of a lost society are found, and a path to a vast underground complex is followed. There, all is silent, and tensed. Remains of the past are left behind The writings on the walls leave no more doubts Silently crying The now face Apathetic human beings Shapeless bodies Of another species Further, a body different from the others Maybe the leader of all these creatures [Siykas]: "Communication with the system established" [Dokkh]: "One of us must enter" 19. Digital Disclosure Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Into Haven
Royth has entered... The dark! [Royth]: "Beauty, complexity Of this heaven Which seems frozen Walls are closing around me I cannot move, I cannot see A strange voice is talking to me Words that I don't understand [Anjaan & Keiji]: "Who are you? Where are you coming from? You are new to this world, thou shalt speak anyhow" - "He is from the outerworld Coming to rescue us" "From what?" - "He is our awaited Messiah Coming to take us home" [Anjaan]: "Home? I am home!" But Anjaan doesn't understand Royth's explanations about the dry desert planet outside, this cold universe, this dying sun. [Anjaan]: "What is your real world? Could mine be all just fantasy?" Accepting Royth's proposal, Keiji and Anjaan are disconnected from Haven and awoke in the real world. [Dokkh]: "Welcome on board young friend We hope you like your mortal frame Out of Haven you now see What is reality" [Keiji/Anjaan]: "My mind is so confused" [Keiji]: "I understand now, when we left Earth We have travelled through time, but did not fold space We have been thrown to a far futurem now at the end of time" [Kreis]: "Now at the end of time, The countdown to extinction of life We are afraid of the darkness" [Anjaan]: "Come, into the light..." 20. Deserved Eternity Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Before they enter Haven again, Keiji looks at the sun, and cries
[Keiji]: "Finally my time has come I say goodbye to this life May my travel lead me to serenity" [Kreis]: "Final breathes of our God End of time, end of all life Make our travel sweeter to eternity Final breathes of our God End of time, end of all life Make our travel sweeter to eternity" [Kreis & Keiji]: "Final breathes of God" - "We have lost our Future" "Testimony of humankind Early glorious episode" - "Over time and nature" "Your history is far behind" Far Behind. 21. Tower Of Vanities Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Tower ! Tower ! Rising high
In the deepness of the sky Object of the human pride Mankind you will divide Mankind ! Purblind ! Can't you hear Storm & might that you should fear Only meant to built a shrine Your slaves will be chastised (Presumptuous men always try to rise to the sky, seeking power. They can't realize they are but men. Every stone added to their creation takes men higher in the sky, but further from reality) Vanity, has taken control of your mind Inanity, rules a perennial strife Can't understand, don't listen anymore Harmony's lost, confusion blurs the world Turris caeli, Gloria Tower ! Tower ! Shades of light Burning dark sight in the night Object of inhuman pride Worship is left behind (Arrogance and vanity steer the weak toward strength, money and power. They no longer care about their spirit. They wanted to rise a temple devoted to the greatness of God, but conceit diverted them from their aim) Do you think you can - scale the sky Do you think you will - by material ways Renewal of the rent primordial axis Wholeness of the three worlds: heavens, earth, underground Can't understand, don't listen anymore Tyranny, frost, delusion lies the world Volition is a mark left by the Lord on his creation, an unhindered absolute power. But without any external control, as resulting from individual thoughts, this power becomes endless, 'cause always free. What do you think you can't be When even God can't change your mind ? Still you don't understand, scattered and confused Locked in yourself, you don't listen anyway Anyway 22. Chimera Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Rising from nowhere on the horizon
Do not be deceived by her call Its divine chant is an illusion The siren's beauty is hiding the evil Loosing their essence beneath appearance People of this lie obscure your conscience Glowing chains & rings however stay cold Only the blind ones will be dazzled The weak are misled Their minds are dead Artificial exterior Simulated behavior Pretension Presumption Artificial exterior Simulated behavior Hallucination Imagination Pain overwhelms the deceived mortal As he bites the poison inside the apple The weak will never make the difference Between the fancy and the essence 23. Lost Soul Music & lyrics by Kalisia
Cold gusts of wind running throughout the desert plain?
Dark clouds choking the sky? High above the world, Gaâl cries. He's been there for weeks, alone, searching for himself. The inner voices were gone now and Nature became silent. He could feel that God was listening to him, so he started to talk : "Oh, my God, I am drowning among the others... Oh, high Lord, all these questions I seek the answers..." "Your quest is what makes your humanity" "Our valors have no sense, licence to lawyers. Oh where's the balance ?" "Mankind will never choose humility" Life's a quest for serenity, but once you've reached it, It becomes unbearable... "You're just a piece of Nature Taken to conscience You're just a mortal Creature I master existence" "I can't find no meaning to what my life should be, my desires are fading..." "Being is just a part of harmony" "After death will I see another beginning, another painful destiny ?" "Dying will take you to reality" "Lost in the universe, humanity's too small. Were we born without brothers ?" "Nature has in itself the ones you seek" "Lord, father of us all, your gifts can't be favors, this creation needs a goal" "Nature's only a mask through which I speak" "Mankind shall rise and then realize..." Mankind is running toward the chasm, hiding its eyes not to see... "You're just a piece of Nature Taken to conscience You're just another Creature I master existence To be !" 24. The Mental Frames (Part I) Music & lyrics by Kalisia
[Instrumental]
25. How Could I Music by Cynic Lyrics by Paul Masvidal
How could I forget such a revelation
To love without fear and learn without question How could I regret the meant occasions I must begin this day again Freedom and reason shine through Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe How could I? Humility take charge of me Drown me in truth's modest waters Loosen your grip, identity Free me from an ego's falter Freedom and reason shine through How could I? Love too often is only a dream If I am harsh and unkind to myself So I share these attitudes with you Must I try? How could I? (lead: Paul) Freedom and reason shine through Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe Love too often is only a dream How could I? Love too often is only a dream If I am harsh and unkind to myself So I share these attitudes with you For in this spewing cadence of my pride How could I? (lead: Jason) 26. A Fortune In Lies Music & lyrics by John Petrucci
I can remember when,
In the unity of our five-day sessions Not even once did we hear the siren song What kind of imagination Asleep in some lyrical coma Who's vain futile memory Could have been so wrong? You can make a fortune in lies You can keep a giant alive You can ride the red Until everybody smiles A trifling euphoria was such an untimely religion maybe your life can explain the reason for my indecision Here is a poor man the heart of this monster creation He said we both will be heroes and I was led into temptation You can make a fortune in lies You can keep a giant alive You can ride the red Until everybody smiles Can you show me your gold and your silver? A hero in frozen water "For the first time in a long time... everything was right in my world... and then I woke up..." Now you've made a fortune in lies and you kept a giant alive You rode the red You rode the red 27. I Am The Black Wizards Music & lyrics by Emperor
Mightiest am I, but I am not alone in this cosmos of mine.
For the black hills consists of black souls, souls that already dies one thousand deaths. Behind the stone walls of centuries they breed their black art. Boiling their spells in cauldrons of black gold. Far up in the mountains, where the rain fall not far, yet the sun cannot reach. The wizards, my servants, summon the souls of macrocosm. No age will escape my wrath. I travel through time and I return to the future. Igather wisdom now lost. I visit again the eternally ancient caves, before a mighty Emperor thereupon came. Watching the mortals "discovering" my chronicles, guarded by the old demons, even unknown to me. Once destroyed their souls are being summoned to my timeless prison of hate. It is delightful to feast upon the screaming souls that was destroyed in my future. How many wizards that serve me with evil.I know not. My empires has no limits. From the never ending mountains black, to the bottomless lakes. I am the ruler and has been for eternity's long. My wizards are many, but their essence is mine. Forever there are in the hills in their stone homes of grief. Because I am the spirit of their existence.I am them. |
