1. AB EXILIO (PROLOGUE)

(Instrumental)


2. THE OPHIDIAN'S TONGUE

Minds have been so easily
Decieved through centuries
The serpent's tongue inflicts your mind
He takes your entity

Indoctrinated by whispers of hatred
Left without reason, left on your own
Here you are, but still so far from
Achieving what your life could have...

Been with your freedom
Now your forgotten, lost to belief
Why did you take it for granted
You bit the apple with withered leaves

[Growls]
I am the true path
I am the messenger of righteousness
Let me enchant you
Let me show you truth
I am the true God
I am the messenger of righteousness
Let me enhance you
Let me show you truth

In realms of captive fear
Your soul will always be

Feed the flames of freedom
The sparkling fire, a will so supreme
Don't let your dreams be enchanted
Fullfill your faith now, fullfill your means

In realms of captive fear
Your soul will always be
Eluded in the vision bleak
For all eternity


3. ROSE OF MELANCHOLY

The dreams that I desire
Is all that I require
A scent from scarlet leaves within
From the roses bloodred chin

Why do we stray to find our way
Why did this God leave us to infinity

[Growls]
Dedication, desperation
An arena with slight ovation
I feel so left out in the cold
I surrender to my inner will
I've become what I've always wished to be
I give my life to you

No matter how I'm trying
I know that I am dying
No path can lead me far away
From my own masquerade

In memory of every hour
That I have shared with grief
In memory of all the hours
Faith I tried to retrieve

Life is the price that we pay...


4. GJENNOM TIDEN

Bak lengsel jeg hadde mine minner gjemt
Det som en gang var og det som er glemt
Når jeg fylles av minner om alt som var vel
Alt slik det var og alt ved meg selv

Da minnes jeg for lenge siden
Om livets glød gjennom tiden

Tiden glir sakte, men sikkert forbi
Fra jord har jeg kommet, til jord skal jeg bli
Jeg ønsker at noen vil minnes om meg
Slik som jeg var og slik jeg var ei

Da minnes en for lenge siden
Mitt livs glød gjennom tiden


5. OF A CAPTIVE MIND

Save me from myself
Free me from this hell
Devouring whats left of me
Why can't it leave me be

We will never be entirely set free
From unwritten rules of society

[Growls]
Demanding laws will keep us down
Feelings we will have to drown
Boundaries we cannot see
Creates what you will come to be

Many a thought conceives in secrecy and
Only pure heart makes us reveal and let it be

[Growls]
Oh how I wish I was supreme
Creator of every dream
A slave of moral I am now
Saviour please where are you

[Growls]
All my principles does define
Results of my actions and your weakness of mind
Attempts of trying to really see
The strive for your fake personality
You're worthless!
