01. A Dream Within A Dream

Memories passing through,
Through my mind...
If I ask, could you tell me
Even more, I wonder if you should.

Real dreams or a dream like reality?
All the things that we are living,
Could it be another dream?
If all the things are in a dream,
Where would be the truth?
Could all we see or seem be
A dream within a dream?

Could the truth be reached from a dream?
Or a dream will come from here?

Real dreams or a dream like reality?
Yet if hope has flown away,
At night or dawn day
In a vision or in none
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

Real dreams or a dream like reality?
All the things that we are living,
Could it be another dream?

If all the things are in a dream,
Where would be the truth?
Could all we see or seem be
A dream within a dream


In a vision or in none
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
A dream within a dream

02. Losing Control

Looking through the pages of my fantasies
I am the next act waiting
From this role I could never run away

The air feels heavy
You were never ready for the lies
So break me into small parts
Let me go away in small doses.

Please, I want to take a breath that is true, I want!
I cannot stand your cheatin' heart
Sweet words don't raise me up.

Waitin' for a sign from you,
Lonely and so untrue
Violets dying in my hands
The distance makes the heart grow weaker and weaker.
Sweet words don't raise me up

Waitin' for a sign from you
I don't wanna be a fool superstar on my private movie.
So tell me... dear...
Are you lonesome tonight?
Is your heart filled with pain?

Feelings of loss blame and agony
You walk alone
This will never end.

If the chance was given would you return?
But it's too late...
There's no one waiting for you

03. Falls Of Mankind

Vanity and passion of few
Sentenced the world
To walk step by step in darkness.

For the legacy of angels and of demons I call
For justice and revenge,
Steel and blood will meet again soon.

Dark is sky for humans
Weak was the mankind
Men have caused their own nasty fall
They built their own doom
Yearning to be the lord of time
Above all things and beings.

Pestilence... war... famine and death

For the legacy of angels and of demons I call
For justice and revenge,
Steel and blood will meet again soon.

04. Lethargic Dreams

I hear steps walking up the stairs
Jump out of the window
I find myself running on the green grass
Of the city square.

Suddenly the night falls down,
The moon is bloody red
And the stars are falling from the skies against our heads.

I see floating eyes in the darkness
Hands rise from the floor
Pushing me down.

Do you live another life with lethargic dreams?
Or do you live a lie
In a deep sleep at nightfall.

I see a river of blood,
And limbs everywhere.
Skulls smiling and crying for me
I scream out and I hear no voice.
No humming sound can be heard,
As I run I just don't move.
I look behind it's getting closer.
Something is trying to catch me.
I don't know what it is,
But I'm scared,
And I wish I could cry for help,
Or could cry for mercy.
I just can't believe it's not reality.

The siren song, is calling for you.
The reaper is coming here to take your soul away.

I am the reaper, your judge and executioner.
The one who'll lead you to your final rest or eternal pain.

I see floating eyes in the darkness
Hands rise from the floor
Pushing me down.

Do you live another life with lethargic dreams?
Or do you live a lie
In a deep sleep at nightfall.

05. Cry Of A Fallen

When we were all created
When the one became the world.

We were filled with the ever burning flame
But the wisdom and knowledge
Of good and evil were given
By a poisonous mind.

And we have fallen
And we are still falling
We lost the path and the key
To go beyond the flaming sword

And we have fallen
And we are still fallen

But we can't find It again
If we don't want it
And work on the rough stone
Which is known as us...

06. October 13th

In the squares of Christian cities
We heard the voices of pagan
Brothers, sisters screaming
Damned for knowing what's denied
Consumed by flames of liers because...

They heard the call
They've burned
In the name of God, they've burned
They heard the call
They've burned and they've died.

In the holy flames we lost
The path to the truth
In the name of God

Within one year,
I summon you to a tribunal
Before the Judgment seat of God
Have mercy! Please mercy!
Compassion of our souls.

In the holy flames we lost
The path to the truth
In the name of God.
Where you will get the payment you deserve!
All is damned until the thirteenth generation of your races
Have mercy! Please mercy!
Compassion of our souls
In the name of God.

In the squares of Christian cities
We heard the voices of pagans,
Brothers, sisters screaming!
For the knowledge of truth
Be hidden for saecula seculorum.

07. The Fool

Long is the night to the awaken one
Really long...
Long are the miles to the tired...
Really long is the walk.

Long is the cycle of birth and death
To a fool who does not know the true path.

The fool who knows his folly is almost wise
The fool who thinks he's wise is just a fool.

Wrong action, like newly drawn milk, does not turn soon.
Smoldering, like fire covered by ashes,
It follows the fool.

When the wrong action becomes known
Turns to sorrow and
Destroys one's brightness and splits the head of...

The fool who knows his folly is almost wise
The fool who thinks he's wise is just a fool.


Increase desire and pride are wishes of the fool

These sons belong to me, and this wealth belongs to me
With such thoughts a fool tormented

One does not belong to oneself
How much less sons and wealth

The fool who knows his folly is almost wise
The fool who thinks he's wise is just a fool.

08. Tactile Coma

My tragedies are oppressed
No surprises in my cell
Don't leave me high
Let me drown
You'll only see my reflection.

Remember all the engraved beauty
Dream fades away
I cannot explain
Dirty feelings
Are inside of me...

Sealed with lies
Lost from nowhere
Open your fearful eyes
And face your real life
Isn't something missing?
Something like a judgement
In imperfect tenses of frailty
Why do you fear?


Show me a sin...
For having lost the creed in myself
With ephemeral thoughts
I am looking for the key to take my everlasting rest.

Here I am
The real you
Could I help you?
Why did you deny me?
Deceitful memories are reality
Which seduces you
I feel your pain in vain
It is so tactile...
So vulnerable...

Sealed with lies
Lost from nowhere
Open your fearful eyes
And face your real life
Isn't something missing?
Something like a judgement
In imperfect tenses of frailty
Why do you fear?

09. To Ruin Or To Reign

I feel my path, and see the way
I keep on walking through night and day, night and day...
What is this quest that I cannot wait?
Will it guide me to ruin or to reign?

I just can't tell you if it's all in vain,
Or if all these chances will be given again
To me it doesn't matter if outside is sun or rain,
I want to be fair instead of smart.

As answers fail to reach my heart,
But the will to win doesn't make me fall apart.
If I can't even tell you where was the start,
How could I choose to go or to stay?

I feel my path and I see the way,
So I keep on walking through night and day.
What is this quest that I cannot wait?
Will it guide me to ruin or to reign?

Am I the inspiration of an ugly paint?
Or just a rat in the pocket of a saint?
Could my way lead to the light or am I faint glow?
But I'll keep on walking...
I'll keep on and I'll keep on...

Each Knowledge comes with a question
But is not that kind solved by an old book's summon?
Is it sweet as sugar or sour as lemon?
I'll find out in the end or in a new start?

As answers fail to reach my heart,
But the will to win doesn't make me fall apart.
If I can't even tell you where was the start,
How could I choose to go or to stay?

I feel my path and see the way
So I keep on walking through night and day.
What is this quest that I cannot wait?
Will it guide me to ruin or to reign?
