01. Castle Of Exile

This war is useless
and you know that
but you're such a fool,
my rage will haunt you

This castle will be your grave,
you will be slain
like everyone you killed

Surrender and kneel to my sword,
the justice and light will blind your soul,
your reign of blood
has come to an end,
tomorrow I'll see a new dawn

The sun will shine in the sky,
I will soar with the wind,
like a bird I will fly,
I'll be free from your curse

Stand your ground!
I'm not as weak as you think,
I'll have no mercy nor regrets.
Will you forget your loyalty?
Will you lose your honor?
Will you fight beside the humankind?

I fight for the truth in my heart,
all this time I've been controlled
by your sinister hand
and the long line of blood
I carry in my veins

I won't be exiled like you,
I'll survive the oblivion,
this night all my rage
will destroy your sins,
your evil soul will fade away

Forever fade away...

Look at you,
the thirst is driving you mad.
Why should you care about their fate?
They will never understand,
they're all dead already,
no one wants to see your face around here

Surrender and kneel to my sword,
the justice and light will blind your soul,
your reign of blood
has come to an end,
tomorrow I'll see a new dawn

The sun will shine in the sky,
I will soar with the wind,
like a bird I will fly,
I'll be free from your curse

02. Unstable Mind

So many thoughts about so many things
Will my mind control my feelings?
Will my feelings drive me to madness?
Lost in a sea of incoherency

All I want is to be free of doubt
All I want is to take the right path
All I want is to be able to believe
To guide this heart with my unstable mind

I can't feel without thinking why
I can't think without feeling lost

Touch my hand, doesn't it help?
Just look in my eyes, you'll see what I feel
Let's be together!
Don't you realize...
Trust the love that exists deep inside

Are you a fool who can't see?
What is in front of your eyes?
Don't be blind and naive from desire
Follow my path, which is safe from distress

I can't feel without thinking why
I can't think without feeling lost
I can't feel without thinking why
I want to break this insane dichotomy

So many thoughts about so many things
Will my mind control my feelings?
Will my feelings drive me to madness?
Lost in a sea of incoherency

All I want is to be free of doubt
All I want is to take the right path
All I want is to be able to believe
To guide this heart with my unstable mind

03. Dark Delusion

Dying... lost in lies
Just a soul that wanders all alone
Delusion... false and faded
Just a vision surrounds me everyday

I thought that your words were true
As day gives into the night
I hide within my disgrace
Betrayed by your words

This silence that locks me
Inside of this prison
The lie that condemns me
To walk in this place

Revenge... poisons my soul, haunting me everyday
I feel sorrow inside my heart
All this time i've been... lurking in the shadows
Waiting for the day to unchain my rage

I thought that your words were true
As day gives into the night
I hide within my disgrace
Betrayed by your words

The truth will unlock me
Out of my prison
I search for the light
To unleash my soul

04. Ancient Guardian

Inside the ocean
I've seen him,
the guardian that keeps all the secrets
that mankind and mortals can't see.

He gave me answers
of hope and faith
and brought me the wisdom of ages,
the wisdom that makes us all free.

It's time to hold our hands
and reach up to the stars,
and then together
we will find the holy light
that keeps us alive.

I've been waiting here
for this to come
I lived with all creatures of nature,
the creatures that mankind has slain.

It's not too late now
to change our fate,
to hear the cries of the elders
and save them for ages to come.

It's time to hold our hands
and reach up to the stars,
and then together
we will find the holy light
that keeps us alive.

Dive into the eternal ocean,
fly into the endless blue,
walk within the tidal waves,
you will dream forevermore!

05. Change

Don't you feel this season of change
As you pain drifts away
As a sea full of sadness
Which lives in your heart
Disappears when you cry

You fall on your knees
Waiting for tears
To fill up your eyes
And you just try to feel
Warm inside
The cold winter night

As the time passes by
All these feelings inside
Keep me standing in front of the storm
I release all the waves
And they rush over me
Washing all of my sorrows away

Give me wings
They're all I need
To set me free
My wounds, they heal
As you're standing by my side

As the time passes by
All these feelings inside
Keep me standing in front of the storm
I release all the waves
And they rush over me
Washing all of my sorrows away

06. Love Remains

Cathy:
My sweet love
Close your eyes
I am here
Let me in

Heathcliff:
In the cold breeze of this moonlit night
The shroud of darkness seems to disappear
Again your face comes back to me
My only love, I hear your voice

Cathy:
Ah ah
Cruel love, open your door

Heathcliff:
Why can't you see the hell that I've been through?
Without you, I can't find the air to breathe
But my love wasn't good enough for you
You took my heart away

(Without my life)
How can I live without my life?
(Without my soul)
How can I live without my soul?
(Betrayed your heart)
Why did you betray your own heart?
(Leaving me)
What right had you to leave me?

Forevermore
My love will stay with you
Until my dying breath
Nothing that god
Or satan could inflict
Would break my faith in you

Cathy:
All my great miseries in this world have been yours
And I watched and I felt each one of them
Like the eternal rocks beneath, I'm bounded to you
Can't you see that I am you

If I did wrong my life's the price I pay
Can you forgive me now as I forgive you
My murderer, my sweet love, I'm coming home

Forevermore
My love will stay with you
Until my dying breath
Nothing that god
Or satan could inflict
Would break my faith in you

Heathcliff:
May she wake in torment
I pray one prayer
I repeat it 'til my tongue stiffens
May you not rest as long as I am living
You said I killed you
Haunt me then
Be with me always
Take any form
Drive me mad
Only do not leave me
In this abyss where I cannot find you

Forevermore
My love will stay with you
Until my dying breath
Nothing that god
Or satan could inflict
Would break my faith in you

07. The Lamp

Fantastic worlds are calling me
Guiding me beyond
Beyond my dreams, beyond my soul
Back where I belong

What is this light I see
Everything seem so clear
The visions of my past, my life
Myself

Don't stop me now
I'm leaving this old life
I know there's so much more
I'm looking through
The glass just for a while
To see my demons run away

What is this change I'm feeling now
I'm not sure what's real
Cause suddenly my walls turned to dust
What ancient past lies here.

Iniside this buried realm
The echoes of the ones
Whose souls are lost
Are calling me

Don't stop me now
I'm leaving this old life
I know there's so much more
I'm looking through
The glass just for a while
To see my demons run away

Please don't be afraid
Just mark my words
Now that I am gone
I will be free

Don't stop me now
I'm leaving this old life
I know there's so much more
I'm looking through
The glass just for a while
To see my demons run away

08. Sarah Deserves To Rest

Hundreds of denials taking me over
Questions to myself, so hard to understand
It doesn't seem to be a dream, is it a vision?
When did I pronounce my dying words?

My wandering spirit has been deceived
I've just seen what I thought was real
I've remembered all things that suits me
I've felt what I wanted to feel

Now that my crying is not being heard
And my blood is getting dry
I can't turn around and look back
I know it's too late for me
Now that my mind understands it
And my eyes see it clear
Who can help me to deal with
My new reality?

I'm dead!!!
Can I expect
The keys to heaven
Or the doors to hell?
I'm so scared
In this dark place
Someone help me to escape...
Help me to rest!

No road to find, here between life and death
Absence of light, eternal shadows blind my shattered fate
Nowhere to hide, somber labyrinths break my breath
Damnation, redemption, fear or faith?

Does it make sense to break the silence?
Or to drown, drown in tears?
Why can't I stop this nightmare?
Will my soul rest in peace?
Who can tell me where I am?
Who can tell why I'm here?
Who can help me escape from
This sad reality?

Now that my crying is not being heard
And my blood is getting dry
I can't turn around and look back
I know it's too late for me
Now that my mind understands it
And my eyes see it clear
Who can help me to deal with
My new reality?

I'm dead!!!
Can I expect
The keys to heaven
Or the doors to hell?
I'm so scared
In this dark place
Someone help me to escape...
Help me to rest!

09. Falling Of The Empire

Some years ago, a rebel town
fought for its freedom.
Thousands of lives were paid
to cut ties with the eastern king,
glory and honor led them
to a royal list of rights:
"Life, liberty, pursuit of happiness".

New kingdom started,
those who were servants
felt freedom's call.
They lit the world with hope
and they reformed the world,
a hidden shadow
of bloody warfare.

Grand were those days
when justice was with them.
"Those who once saved us
now lead with tyranny."

Falling of the empire,
all the world is calling.
Falling of the empire,
rise of rebel force.

The shell of madness,
they helped to build unseen
creations for the world,
masses must be their slaves,
a cruel hypocrisy.
They now command them,
they now control them...

Grand were those days
when justice was with them.
"Those who once saved us
now lead with tyranny."

Falling of the empire,
all the world is calling.
Falling of the empire,
rise of rebel force.

Democracy
used as a disguise,
hiding your will
of domination.
Global disarm,
what does this mean?
A pacific trend,
or another fake?

Falling of the empire,
all the world is calling.
Falling of the empire,
rise of rebel force.

10. Wisdom Hunter

Beyond the limits of history,
where uniqueness is all that remains,
you walk the path of humanity
but living outside its causality.

When you feel coincidence,
he sees consequence.

Swimming inside the society,
you learn to float into normality.
Let mystery walk by your side,
nothing to fear, nothing to hide,
it's time to face your wild side.

Living, feeling, dreaming emotions,
trying to find the truth
behind your elusive behavior,
looking for true knowledge
to make sense of this dimension,
fighting for ideals,
the lonely path of the wisdom hunter.

Hard is the way of keeping your own words,
no one will care if you do it or not.
Sooner or later you will realize
that to understand your mind
is to understand the world.

When you see faith,
he feels doubt.

Living, feeling, dreaming emotions,
trying to find the truth
behind your elusive behavior,
looking for true knowledge
to make sense of this dimension,
fighting for ideals,
the lonely path of the wisdom hunter.

Seeker of dreams
timeless shadow
who lives by his will
Seed of beliefs
fearless soul
who can see through your sins

Information is not Knowledge
Knowledge is not Wisdom
Wisdom is not Truth
Truth is not Beauty
Beauty is not Love
Love is not Music
Music is...

Seeker of dreams
timeless shadow
who lives by his will
Seed of beliefs
fearless soul
who can see through your sins
