Knowledge and power
Two sides of the same coin
Acquired on a journey of

Many lifetimes
A promise not fulfilled
(A promise not fulfilled)
Until the final embrace

Restless dreams now fade
One by one in the veil of every night
Only to be greeted by day
Bright red dawn of a magical spring

A spark ignites a fire
That lights up inside

It's destiny to burn
Until the end of each life

Ancestral guidance stems from inside
A spirit of old lies deep within
His might and his power always at hand
The will of a thousand gods

Deep inside the temple
Where the spirit resides
There is a lake so calm
Its waters cannot be disturbed

Restless dreams now fade
One by one in the veil of every night
Only to be greeted by day
Bright red dawn of a magical spring
Bright red dawn of a magical spring

The mind travels to the edge of the world
Finding peace only inside a dream

Now the spirit's gone
Left this body behind
The temple lies sealed
And the water has dried

The gates cannot open
The heart can't be reached
Closing the eyes
A final and silent

Wish of
Wish of autumn
Wish of autumn twilight

Wish of autumn
Wish of autumn twilight

It all began
When it wondered about itself
Then the first true son of Saturn
Separated from the whole

The mind stuck in patterns
In a game that you don't get the rules
Struggling so hard
To stay in the board a little more
Break the bond

A race with no price
Bleed for your demise
Pain and suffering
Have no place for life
Dark earth
Reflecting back to us
When the choice is slumber
Everything shall end

Glorified worship of death
Stained with fear
Hollowed
We never see it all

We place our lives
In the hands of fake personas
But still don't trust
The real ones beside us
Remake the bonds

A race with no price
Bleed for your demise
Pain and suffering
Have no place for life
Dark earth
Reflecting back to us
When the choice is slumber
Everything shall end

Ah

Reason now forgotten
Still we seek far away
Forsaken, disconnected
Still we march 'til the end

Even with the warning signs
Right before our eyes
Yet again we close them
And accept the same old fate

To your grave, walk
To your grave, walk

The shroud
Begins to dissolve
Retrieving all trace
Of organic life
Opened the eye
To feel the touch of divine
Never looked away

But from the depths
I have felt his presence
His eyes two black holes

He said to me:
"I am the truth you seek
Embody me
I am the one true god
You searched
I came for you"

Floating
On the realms above
To taste forbidden fruits
Blessed with clarity
The plains were haunted
By a shadow pulling the strings
A part of it inside me
Drawing power from my sorrow

You want to see me kneel
Under the weight of my burden
You are not the truth I seek
You don't belong in me

You want to see me kneel
Under the weight of my burden
You are not the truth I seek
You don't belong in me

Floating
On the realms above
To taste forbidden fruits
Blessed with clarity
The plains were haunted
By a shadow pulling the strings
A part of it inside me
Drawing power from my sorrow

This constant sorrow
Is driving me insane
Survive past the shadows
To reach what lies beyond the veil

Onwards
To explore the seas
That no one else ever dared
On top of the mast
A black flag dances softly
With the wind
From oak and pine
A ship floating
On deep dark blue

A storm strikes from the north
With force my journey to end
Towering waves
And terrifying winds

Strength of two elements
Combined
With a flash of lightning
The fear is no more

When I sail
On a ship
With black flag
Black sails
Black flag
Black sails

Journey
Under boundless skies
On a vessel carrying
My dreams and hopes

Never casting anchor again
Until my heart decides to rest
Or the endless ocean swallows me

No empire
Can set borders on the endless seas
No ruler
Can tame the wildest storms

When riding the waves
You choose your own path
When all doubt is withdrawn
You don't fear the unknown
Nor the eternity
That lies ahead

When I sail
On a ship
With black flag
Black sails
Black flag
Black sails

Like all stories
This one begins
From the time when balance
And serenity ruled the Earth

There was a time of war
Innocent lives were lost
Still they wondered
How all this began

How a man
Living a life of honor
Becomes a violent beast

Still I don't understand
How a man
Can curse the future
Of all generations to come

Once proud and free they roamed, deceived
They sealed their fate
Slaves to the dark, blindly consumed
The blood of demons

The tides of war
Have spread the seeds
Of pain and hatred
No soothing voice
To calm their lust
For mass destruction

Yeah

Once proud and free they roamed, deceived
They sealed their fate
Slaves to the dark, blindly consumed
The blood of demons

The tides of war
Have spread the seeds
Of pain and hatred
No soothing voice
To calm their lust
For mass destruction
Whoa
From the abyss
Ill crops will spring
A fated harvest

After years of war
The bloodlust never stopped
Corrupted souls
Tainted the Earth

Drained of all life
Forever doomed to search
For a homeland of their own
For a homeland of their own

They sit by the sun
Bathing in sunlight
Standing on top of us all
But never tasted true warmth
Climbing higher and higher

The flock in front of mirrors
That never reflect the truth
Abandonment
And the need to connect
Stabbing the self
Again and again
To stop the pain, no

Never tamed
Never contained
Hear the primal scream
Never tamed
Never contained
In tune with the Gaian mind

Forever untouched, unbroken
A sacred primordial dream
The fall of imperium
Archaic revival

When resting in the shade
And the peace of twilight
In contemplation

Through the cradle
Of nostalgia
A feeling
That something was lost

Never tamed
Never contained
Hear the primal scream
Never tamed
Never contained
In tune with the Gaian mind

Forever untouched, unbroken
A sacred primordial dream
The fall of imperium
Archaic revival

By the shade
By the shade of the sun
Preserving
In the realm of the dark

By the shade
By the shade of the sun
Preserving
In the realm of the dark

Instrumental

Yeah

Into each life some rain must fall
Some days must be dark and cold
The raindrops fall
At every gust of wind the dead leaves drop

Countless cleansing voices unite
And demonize
The dry and dusty plight
Left by days of brutal beating sun
Embrace the storm inside
Traces of roots forgotten
Blessed by the gods of rain

Since the days of yore
Its beauty fulfilling
The sun returns its warmth

Its beauty fulfilling
As your soul
As your soul journeys

I see the lightning in the storm
The tempest rage above
Yeah
Led by fury divine

And the morning
When the clouds scatter
(The sun returns its warmth)
From the soil life's born
Once again
The sun returns its warmth

Into each life some rain must fall
Some days must be dark and cold
The raindrops fall
At every gust of wind the dead leaves drop
Yeah (yeah) (yeah)

For long
I delved into the place
My darkness dwells
Still the mountains sing to me

When I hear them
Calling
No more
Living in the shadows

Out in the wild
I feel the magic inside
Spirit of the warrior
In a modern world

A forlorn past
I saw enough
Now I return to the path

A shout of freedom in the air

Out in the wild
I feel the magic inside
Spirit of the warrior
In a modern world

Out in the wild
Thoughts like clouds they pass
Spirit of the warrior
The world is my home

It's time
For the indigo
To lead the way
And the crystal child
To create

What is life
When you step aside from your dreams?
Letting them dry
And fade away
When you extinguish your flame
Instead of letting it burn
