1. AT THE GATES OF DAWN

(INSTRUMENTAL)


2. THE ENDLESS QUEST

I've gone through the desert plains
Through the swamps and rain
Left all my friends behind me
I'm my own enemy

Lord, my journey is so vain
Am I going insane
I fear my faith may not be
Strong enough for thee

What do we have left
When our certainties go down
Things I've lost I had once found

My endless quest is my way to survive
My only aim is to enter the shrine
Do I live for the crown and my king
Or to ignore I believe in nothing... My lord

So vast are the desert plains
So cold is the rain
My armour's an empty shell
Despite it I'm so frail

My journey comes to an end
Give me a helping hand
I have found the holy shrine
I'm not sure it's divine


3. CRIMSON EYES

And your eyes have seen the end of sins
A glimpse of the great deceiver's rebirth
And hearts will be no more filled with pain
As long as you take care onto this world

Before the dawn
Let the blood wedding begin
In your heart find the strengh
To bring back the crown
That takes all our pain away

Open your crimson eyes on the world
Bless all the damned who died by the sword
Don't fear to wear this shadow crown
Cos'your new order is now here to come

And we have buried the crown under
The dust of hundreds desperate dreams
Don't you scratch those rusted wings you spread
With the iron thorns of our own beliefs

Now are bleeding the seven signs
With a ray of healing light
Open your crimson eyes
And let us see beyond the sight


4. A WAY TO FOLLOW

Tired of this world of terror
Where all dreams have disappeared
I can't see my face in the mirror
Falling in a river of tears

Voices are calling me
Like whispers in my ears
I thought that I could stay
But it's time for me to leave

Here we are men with our faith
Here with god we are all friends
No vanity and no fame
So that's why I have to go. I'm sure you already know
I have found a way to follow

You'll never understand the price of time and life
You'll never realize our life was just a lie
Those men so wise and erudite have eased my mind
That's why today I leave you 'till the end of time

Rescued from this world of terror
My dreams have not disappeared
At last I know what I live for
I am free from hatred and fear


5. TWO OF A KIND

I do believe in Wisdom. My sword's here to defend
Bring me wrath, fire and hate. I pray for war and flames
We're sons of a dying king, guardians at the gates of dawn
Our elders' legacy is the great shadow realm
The crown now belongs to me. Father, I'll deserve it
I'm the one you believe in. Mother, be proud of me
Until the end of time we shall forever roam
No victory despite the battle's raging
Time has come for changes. Peace is no more
All the soldiers who kissed my ring raise up your swords
Until we fight tomorrow, both of us will feel the sorrow
To hate that much one's brother. Death will last forever
One of us must die tomorrow
We will never share the same throne
To rule the kingdom of shadows
All we have : a brotherhood of hate
Brother - I am your dark side. Anger burns in my veins
Brother - I am the god's pride. You'll surely never reign
We are two for one destiny, fate's marching on
Dear brother, be prepared I am on the run
Through time - blood, pain and fire, our fight will always last
Our hate - is getting higher, feeding scars from the past
Until the end of time we shall forever roam
No victory despite the battle's raging
Same blood but so different minds. Anger leads us so blind
We've hidden our love behind. The mask of our pride
But until the end of time. We're just two of a kind
Every man take the path of good and evil
History loves those who end their travel
I came for the crown to rule this kingdom of shadows
Warfield is our home. Our tale will be told forever now


6. REMEMBER

Face on the cold floor
Hear them through the door
Slowly open eyes. Also hear the cries
Why am I here ? Surrounded by fear
Treat me like a beast
Journey through the mist

Pictures from the past
Collide with my last memory
Madness comes and goes
You're all welcome to the show

What a perfect life with you
Memories and love go through My insanity
Did I really take your lives ?

What a beautiful nightmare
Until I felt so scared
I've lost all I've ever had
Since I've gone completely mad

I remember pride. I remember child
Blood is on my hads. Spreads into the sand
I remember wife. I remember knife
I loved them so much. I can't get enough


7. SHADOW REALM - PART 1: THE SHADOW CROWN

(INSTRUMENTAL)


8. SHADOW REALM PART 2: THE CITADEL

I made cities rising out of the sands
Forged the shadow crown from the sins of men

My fate was to be lonely until the end
Don't betray me or I'll turn you into sand

Wicked winds took you away on this endless quest
Your journey back lays within my hands

Trust in my holy sight
I'll take your hand at night
As we cross the wide shadow realms

return from your exile
Begin your long way back
As the gates of dawn are closing
For eternity


9. FADING AWAY

I haven't thought about you for a while
It seems so strange to me. I wonder why
Your voice, your smell are fading away
Despite my efforts in vain. All seems so vai

Tight heart is harder now. On this new way
Darkness is stronger than me. It increases everyday

Memories are running fast
Can't keep them from the first one to the last

Your emptiness is filling me. As I remind your agony
But things won't stop changing. Dawn's still coming

The pain I feed is draining me.
Can't stop the will fleeing from me
But life won't stop raging
Tears stop falling down

Oh dear forgive me. I feel guilty so much
My memories slowly turn into dust
Your voice, your smell are fading away
Despite my efforts in vain. All seems so vain

Don't cry for the ones you love. It is too late
Be glad their paths have crossed yours
Some of us call it fate


10. END OF LINE

Meta fortress is approaching
To erase all you believe in
I come, I defeat
I'm God

Born of a warlord family
I show no mercy, no mercy
I hate. So I am
I'm God

Great ancient ones
Some cruel some wise
You didn't know in your lifetime
That I would be the end of the line
Your pride made you so blind

But in the end
You'll understand
My life my purpose and my aim
To have no son and no love to find
I'm the end of the line

Love and peace I will never know
But for me no guilt or sorrow
No friends. No son by
My side


11. SILENT CRIES

No turning back, frozen to the core
No coming back, won't breath anymore
My time has come, I've already closed my eyes
And I'm released, at last I can die

Don't shed a tear, pain you cannot hide
Death takes my hand with a brand bright smile
No healing light, no peacefull sanctuary
I go alone, noone waits for me

When all seems so close to the end
I've got nothing to regret
Nothing more but all that pain

Don't wake me anymore
Let me sleep alone in the cold
There's nothing more out there to fear
But your flowless silent tears

Bring me down to the earth
Lay me down in her arms of dust
I leave two thousand years of lies
And this world of silent cries

Don't pray for me, I don't deserve it
Remember me, I face eternity
Please forgive me, but I have to leave
Deliver me, from chains of slavery


12. WORLD'S CLOSING CHAPTER

We've built a world. You'll never know
In a time of blood, pain and sorrow
Almighty gods. Upon their thrones
But for us now there's no tomorrow

How could we die ? Our world's vanish ?
Rotten by hate, vengeance and anguish
We came to earth from thousands suns away

I have to decide. Now it's do or die
Pilgrims of mankind

We dreamt of spreading life across the universe
Humans and gods will finally rise together
Sowed life on so many worlds we just can't remember them all
But I remind the ones for that we had to crush

Pain. Is it all in vain ?
Brave the astral wind. Future was our aim

But our end is near. Ourselves we shall fear
We, people are lost. Our legacy will burst

Warships are gone in every world we created
I realize we have been blinded by our pride
Knowledge opened our eyes about chaos of life, death and pain
We know there is no judgement for us in the end
