Yet still we seek - new goals and dreams
Out new horizons – we seek to grow
No longer do – we sail for distant shores
Nor pillage treasures – as in days of yore
I call the beast - the Daughters Nine
Out of the glory, restore us again
The wave it cracks, the fire burns - it builds the pyre
When you call my name again
Build the pyre high, midsummer is upon us
Sunshine fills the sky tonight
Those distant tunes – remember them
Ancestors singing their ancient runes
Let’s join the song – the stories of the Gods
Aesir and Vanic glories – come praise the Lords
Let’s have our feast - come drink my friend
When you return – it’s dark again
The wave it cracks, the fire burns - it builds the pyre
When you call my name again
Build the pyre high, midsummer is upon us
Sunshine fills the sky tonight
The Wave it cracks, the fire burns - it builds the pyre
When you call my name again
Build the pyre high, midsummer is upon us
We dance the fire – dance it tonight

Let’s go
I saw my father – I saw his face
A look in the mirror – a look into my soul
I lost my eyesight – seven years ago
I heard him scream and cry – a fool was I to know
I lost my love – after I have lost my sight
my heart’s still beating – I want to go away
fleeting from the universe – look up to the sky
The shadow of truth has begun
as a blind man stares to the sun
but it’s dark – the shadow of truth has begun
you can’t see the light is all around me – he stares upon the sun
I saw the whole world – but I wasn’t there
saw your malicious grin – I could only guess
Hatred made me see again – hatred made me smile
bitter to the core, my hate – killed him with my mind
I lost my hate – after he has lost his life
my heart’s still beating – my power starts to grow
rising to the universe – look up to the sky
The shadow of truth has begun
as a blind man stares to the sun
but it’s dark – the shadow of truth has begun
you can’t see the light is all around me – he stares upon the sun
Sungazer – Lightbringer – I know he brings me home again
Sungazer – Lightbringer of hell – my power starts to grow
The shadow of truth has begun
as a blind man stares to the sun
but it’s dark – the shadow of truth has begun
you can’t see the light is all around me – he stares upon the sun
The shadow of truth has begun
as a blind man stares to the sun
but it’s dark – the shadow of truth has begun
you can’t see the light is all around me – he stares upon the sun
The shadow of truth has begun
as a blind man stares to the sun
but it’s dark – the shadow of truth has begun
you can’t see the light is all around me – he stares upon the sun

Listen to my voices – one of many of this world
Listen in this world of terror – be the mighty one
Listen to my voices – I am the only one
Listen to the freedom bell – you only have to come
Come to me – I am the truth of mankind
Come to me – live your freedom in my paradise
Look up to the sky – see the stars on world’s horizon
The planets eaten by the sun
Come to me – hahahahaha
Listen to our voices – the one and only verity
You live the only destruction – detach yourself from it
Listen to our voices – we are many – you are less
We are here to rule the world – our salvation is near
Come to us – we are the truth of mankind
Come to us – live your freedom in our paradise
Look up to the sky – see the stars on world’s horizon
The planets eaten by the sun
Look up to the moon – see the stars up in the firmament
We are nothing but a windflow
Oh come to me… I promise you delight
The hellish fire - feel it burn – together we can rule the world again
Look up to the sky – see the stars on world’s horizon
The planets eaten by the sun
Look down to the earth and see the grains of dust
We are nothing but a windflow
I told you – you should follow me
Now you are damned – forever

The Invisible Man
05:07
|
|||
Hear the sound of the echo – in the dark
Hear the scream of the old man – walking alone in the park
Hear the silence – is here all around me - hear there’s nothing but dark
The seclusion where I live is killing me - far away from peacefulness
The placidity is louder than an atom bomb – in my head the world explodes
Listen to the inner fears of men - the invisible man
listen to their voice again – listen to their sorrows
filling in the deepest of the heart
He’s walking alone - the invisible man
He lives the living dead - the invisible man
No fear of the dead – the immortal man - he lives the living hell
Crash – dreadful fright – a light comes towards me
a shock that tears my heart apart
I wake up, drenched in sweat – but still it’s cold
my vicinity – my living hell
He’s walking alone - the invisible man
He lives the living dead - the invisible man
No fear of the dead – the immortal man
He lives the living hell
He lives a world of freedom – surrounded by a pitch-black heart
He wants to live his life in peace
The inner restlessness eats him up
He’s walking alone - the invisible man
He lives the living dead - the invisible man
No fear of the dead – the immortal man
He lives the living hell
He’s walking alone - the invisible man
He lives the living dead - the invisible man
No fear of the dead – the immortal man
He lives the living hell
Can you hear a man’s screaming – all alone

Tyrant's Rule
04:26
|
|||
You don’t know what to do - You know you’re not alone
Cursed be you to face no light - The sun will never rise again
You don’t know what to do - Your soul is only black
It’s time to go home now - And finish what’s to be done
You are a fool – I know the answers to the question
A nameless ghoul – you know that I don’t care about
You are a freak – nobody can take you seriously
A dodgy geek – everyone avoids you
know the truth – you know the truth – you know the truth
I say the world cannot be part of us
In the heat of the dreadful night, you’re glorious
Cursed be you to face no light
You’ll find that in this life you’ll lose the fight
Ha ha – I want you dead
Unleash the storm – take the fall the night is ours
Bodies deformed – everyone gets scared when they see you
Have no control – you create your life with unnatural powers
The biggest goal – the Tyrant’s Rule
You wanted the truth - You wanted the truth - You wanted the truth
I say the world cannot be part of us
In the heat of the dreadful night, you’re glorious
Cursed be you to face no light
You’ll find that in this life you’ll lose the fight
You see it coming
You got the truth - You got the truth - You got the truth
I said the world it was not part of us
In the heat of this redemptive night, you were glorious
Cursed was you to face no light
And you see that in this life you’ll never win the fight

Nature's Legacy
05:02
|
|||
Have you always been intrigued by the occult?
Do you prefer night to day?
Does a storm stir in you – a sense of thrill?
Are you a sensualist?
Have you always felt different of those about you,
set apart and alone? Are you comfortable alone?
Are you indifferent to material possessions?
Words can heal – words can harm, my friend
Tongue is the killer – housed in the head
May my words – build and bless – illuminate
There is no church to join – no tribute to pay
Build a legacy – that prides even all the Gods
Go to nature and observe – victorious
Have you had a fleeting glimpse of former lives?
Human being or unnatural?
Watch the moon rise, feel the earth, soak up the energy
Drink the water, breathe the air
Words can heal – words can harm, my friend
light the sacred candle close to you
May my words – build and bless – illuminate
There is no church to join – no tribute to pay
Build a legacy – that prides even all the Gods
Go to nature and observe – victorious
There is a silence where hath been no sound
in the cold grave, where no sound may be…
No voice is hushed – no life treads silently
only black clouds – in the desolate walls
That never spoke – over the idle ground
in green ruins – their shadows wander free
May my words – build and bless – illuminate
There is no church to join – no tribute to pay
Build a legacy – that prides even all the Gods
Go to nature and observe – victorious
Go to hell – I lived the vision of the beast
Nature signs and evil spirit – under the deep sea
Or in wide desert where no life is found
Go to hell – your end will be victorious

Inner Self
04:11
|
|||
Can you hear me – I am your inner self
Can you hear me – whether you like it or not
Can you hear me – in your deep inside
Can you hear me – you can’t stop listen to me
I am always with you – more enemy than friend
I always try to touch you – I won’t leave you alone
Can you feel me – I am the emptiness
Can you feel me – the hole in your brain
Can you feel me – whether you feel it or not
Can you feel me – I touch you when I want
I am always with you – more enemy than friend
I always try to touch you – I won’t leave you alone
You are here – I’m here for even though you hate
You are here – You are the friend I never wanted by my side
You want me – to take possession of
You want me – don’t ever want to let me go
You want me – I am your property
You want me – but I don’t want you
You hear nothing – you think you won
But believe me – I will return
You are here – I’m here for even though you hate
You are here – You are the friend I never wanted by my side
You are here – I’m here for even though you hate
You are here – You are the friend I never wanted by my side

Live Your Dreams
04:39
|
|||
I’m sitting here and looking out the window
Think of all that has been
Crazy times as if it was yesterday
thy blur in my head for a unique memory
Then I saw your picture in a magazine
You made it and I’m here all alone
Live your dreams – you do the things I always wanted
you show me how it could have worked
You see what I only see at night
Live your dreams – you do the things I always wanted
I only see at night
All the things that will never shine – they will never shine for me
We imagined how it could be
What we’ve never experienced together
And would you recognize me on the street
Would you say “hello, nice to see you again”?
Then I saw your face there in the TV screen
you reached the top and I am down
Live your dreams – you do the things I always wanted
you show me how it could have worked
You see what I only see at night
Live your dreams – you do the things I always wanted
I only see at night
All the things that will never shine – they will never shine for me
I want it – I need it - I want to live your life
You wanted it - and you got it - you live our dream alone
Live your dreams – you do the things I always wanted
you show me how it could have worked
You see what I only see at night
Live your dreams – you do the things I always wanted
I only see at night
All the things that will never shine – they will never shine for me
I’m sitting here and looking out the window
Think of all that has been

The Drowned
04:25
|
|||
When she was drowned and swam - from the brooks into great rivers
The opal of heaven seemed very wondrous - as if to appease the corpse
Seaweed stayed with her - so that it slowly became much heavier
Cold was the fish, which swam at her body - plants weighed down her last ride
And in the evening – the sky drew dark as smoke
and the night held the light - in the balance with the stars
As her pale body rotted – away in the trench
It was slow as God – began to forget her
First her face starts to perish – then her hands and her hair
She became carrion – in the rivers which are running deep
The last parts of her body – they disappear
Now it’s time that God – finally forgot her
The last pieces are rotten – now are one with the earth
She became part of us – in the rivers which are running deep
And in the evening – the sky drew dark as smoke
and the night held the light in the balance with the stars
It was early – it was bright – birds were singing
Still give love and peace for her – in the morning and evening light

The Traveller
04:51
|
|||
I escape from daylight – ready to dive into a new world
What will I experience this time?
Will I want to go back or will I want to stay there forever?
Will I meet crazy creatures or people that I like?
Scary sceneries – in a valley of hell?
Death wish – or an undetected newborn courage to live?
How long will the journey go? World travel or short trip?
Reality of a madman – the only question is
Can I go? Can I stay? Will I be? Invincible?
Tell me – take my hand and immerse to your world
Tell me – all the fears disappear for a while
Tell me – what is hidden in the very depth of you
Tell me – close your eyes, let it go, drift away
And now the journey starts – I feel warm, cozy in the middle
Power trip – purple haze, sulphur smoke, toxic mist in my brain
How long does the voyage go – sense of time – I don’t care
My deep grudge like an undertow – my inner answer is
I can go – I can stay – I will be – Invincible
Tell me – take my hand and immerse to your world
Tell me – all the fears disappear for a while
Tell me – what is hidden in the very depth of you
Tell me – close your eyes, let it go, drift away
Tell me – take my hand and immerse to your world
Tell me – all the fears disappear for a while
Tell me – what is hidden in the very depth of you
Tell me – close your eyes, let it go, drift away
