1. OMEN

Follow the road
Eastward i’ll go
Flames are rising like
Devils at my back.
The sand and sea,
They beckon me;
Can you feel it now,
World's goin’ black

Carry our defeat
Seek out the wise
For sword, for war, for fear,
In hope that I should find...

Rise, and echo far and wide
For few are left alive
To save the souls of
Those who stand upright.
Let the call resound,
A savior must be found
To put to end this
Hollow ceaseless strife.

I’ll serve the tale
When words have failed.
The dust is rising
Like ash on the air.
Dunes meeting sky,
Rising so high;
Can you sense it now?
There’s poison everywhere.

Carry our defeat
Seek out the wise
For sword, for war, for fear,
In hope that I should find...

Rise, and echo far and wide
For few are left alive
To save the souls of
Those who stand upright.
Let the call resound,
A savior must be found
To put to end this
Hollow ceaseless strife.


2. CURSED

I used to dwell in light,
A child of peace and love
But love betrayed me as it will;
She wove a spell of night,
Seductive words, ensnared,
Casting, condemning me to hell

Crawling inside this skin,
I don’t know where I have been.
Wake me, I cannot dream,
For all I hear are screams.

Fell to my knees and begged
To spare my tortured heart
But no mercy could she find;
And so the curse took hold,
Thirst for the blood and gold,
Into the beast I was confined.

Crawling inside this skin,
I don’t know where I have been.
Wake me, I cannot dream,
For all I hear are screams.

Am I a beast or man?
Are these daggers or hands?
I feel the change coming again.

Now, you may see me fly,
A fury of the skies!
Tremble before my cry
For all opposing will die.


3. NEVER STOP

Up, never stop,
Never give your spirit up
Even when fire surrounds you -

Get up now, face the fight,
With the enemy in sight -
You can’t go back to where you have been
Never stop,
Never let the devil win
Even when hell surrounds you.

I’ve fallen in a place so deep,
Am I awake or am I asleep?
This nightmare reigns (like a monster in my mind)
It’s pulled me down (leaving all my dreams behind)

Up, never stop,
Never give your spirit up
Even when fire surrounds
Get up now, face the fight,
With the enemy in sight
Even when hell surrounds you.

I’m trapped inside an iron cage
With frightened tears and fists of rage
The ashes fall (burn away the truths I’ve found)
The toxic air (drowns my soul without a sound)

Up, never stop,
Never give your spirit up
Even when fire surrounds
Get up now, face the fight,
With the enemy in sight
Even when hell surrounds you.

Stand up, I’m facing my foe,
No place left for me to go.
Stand up, I’m facing my foe,
No place left for me to go.

Up, never stop,
Never give your spirit up
Even when fire surrounds
Get up now, face the fight,
With the enemy in sight
Even when hell surrounds you.


4. LEAVING YOU BEHIND

How did we end up here
Illuminated by recollections
Of a better time and place.
We ask the difficult questions.

I put it all behind me,
Still the shadows remind me
How your touch was bliss.
Reflections fade and time stands still.
How, oh, how did it come to this?

Every dream and every word we shared
Are running through my mind.
Every moment, every promise;
Leaving all those thoughts behind.

All that remains
Are the shadows floating on the dawn.
Memories haunt the sun
And ask how everything
Had gone so wrong.

All the times I should have let you
Leave me wanting with a kiss.
How could we so knowingly
Have let it end like this?

Every dream and every word we shared
Are running through my mind.
Every moment, every promise;
Leaving all those thoughts behind.

Will you ever be more than memory?

Every dream and every word we shared
Are running through my mind.
Every moment, every promise;
Leaving all those thoughts behind.


5. WAITING FOR THE NIGHT

Waiting for the night
To fall upon the day
Washing all the pain
And the guilt away
Waiting for the moon
To eclipse the sky again
Break apart this curse
So the war can end.
Waiting for the night...

What more can i regret
When all my sins
Have left me in shame
Wasting in loneliness
Abandoning every claim?

Waiting for the night
To fall upon the day
Washing all the pain
And the guilt away
Waiting for the moon
To eclipse the sky again
Break apart this curse
So the war can end.
Waiting for the night...

I will rise once i’ve found you.

What more can I submit
As payment for
The destruction i've caused?
This, no, this is it!
I will be a demon no more.

Waiting for the night
To fall upon the day
Washing all the pain
And the guilt away
Waiting for the moon
To eclipse the sky again
Break apart this curse
So the war can end.
Waiting for the night...


6. EXSILIUM

One night, the stars bright, extinguished
By rising flames, smoke, hate and anguish;
The ground shook, the walls cracked, the fire in air,
A hurricane of pain and sudden black despair.

Blame your sin,
Let the darkness in.
Caught within,
The light has reached its end.
Blame your sin.
Let the night fall in;
Lost within,
Now at our end.

The paradox claims its paramore
Drunk on the prospect of evermore
Caverns fold into unfeeling bliss
The angry gods roar, burn, and unleash their fists.

Blame your sin,
Let the darkness in.
Caught within,
The light has reached its end.
Blame your sin.
Let the night fall in;
Lost within,
Now at our end.


7. SACRILEGE

Darkness,
Cold and alone,
Not a tear to shed, forgotten.
The icy sheet of apathy
Has brought my soul
To certain dread.

Something broke through.
Changing everything I knew.
Lost in myself
Just trying to hold true.
Someone broke in,
Tried to change me deep within.
What’s the price of sin?
Of letting chaos win?

Shredded,
Embrace what I believe.
Screaming for someone
To save me.
The nights go on,
The lights turn out
Bringing me to destiny.

Something broke through.
Changing everything I knew.
Lost in myself
Just trying to hold true.
Someone broke in,
Tried to change me deep within.
What’s the price of sin?
Of letting chaos win?


8. JOURNEYS DO NOT END

I followed the storm
Through the desert
Where it dried up in the sun
And you were walking in the haze;
I knew you were the one.

You marched through sand,
Across barren wasteland,
Not faltering in the heat
And reaching for my hand.

Journeys do not end,
They simply renew;
The path I walked in darkness
Somehow led to you.
The skies cannot end,
The stars limitless.
This path I walked in darkness
Somehow led to this.

You followed the sun
To the the mountain
Where it set into the sky
And I was walking through the rain
Until I saw your eyes.

I reveled in the voices
Singing in the trees
Not faltering in sight of death
But falling to my knees.

Journeys do not end,
They simply renew;
The path I walked in darkness
Somehow led to you.
The skies cannot end,
The stars limitless.
This path I walked in darkness
Somehow led to this.

Were you an exile, too,
Or a hero of your own design?
Coming forth to save the reckless
While leaving the wreckage behind?

Journeys do not end,
They simply renew;
The path I walked in darkness
Somehow led to you.


9. LEVEL UP

No more do we walk in shadow,
No more do we walk in fear,
No more do we cling to our hope,
For death is surely near.

The game is set, the pieces are in play
Time to fight, time to even the odds,
Let the fires rain, smoke rolling away
The final play cast, and we paid the cost

No more do we walk in shadow,
No more do we walk in fear,
No more do we cling to our hope,
For death is surely near.

Into the wreckage, headlong we plunge,
Our banners waving tattered and high
Ripped and stained with our warriors’ blood
Battle shouts are filling the skies!

No more do we walk in shadow,
No more do we walk in fear,
No more do we cling to our hope,
For death is surely near.

No turning back, no running home
It's time to level the field
Let the stones fall, let the ground quake,
We shall not yield.
No turning back, no running home,
It’s time!
Let stones fall, let ground quake,
We shall not yield!


10. HAUNTED

I walk these empty halls.
Somehow, the light has dimmed.
The sun has grown cold.
All I hear is distant wind.

Gone, but not your memory
Chiseled in these walls.
Taken but not lost to me,
I can't escape your calls

You were everything,
My torch to light the way,
My angel in a sea
Of devils darkening day.
Your whisper lingers still;
Your soul upon the night.
But I cannot follow through,
Haunted by the ghost of you.

I speak my empty words,
No comfort to my soul.
The skies have grown dark
And I hear the bell toll.

Gone, but not from memory,
Still clinging to your smile;
Taken far away from me,
Trapped in my exile

You were everything,
My torch to light the way,
My angel in a sea
Of devils darkening day.
Your whisper lingers still;
Your soul upon the night.
But I cannot follow through,
Haunted by the ghost of you.

My dawn, my evening star.
My Eve, my dawn,
All that i’ve lost, all that is gone.

You were everything,
My torch to light the way,
My angel in a sea
Of devils darkening day.
Your whisper lingers still;
Your soul upon the night.
But I cannot follow through,
Haunted by the ghost of you.


11. HAIL TO YOUR QUEEN

I have traveled beyond ocean depths
In search of horizons, instead finding death.
I have battled with man and with beast
In searching for gold, a lust never ceased.

Yo, ho, the winner takes all.
Yo, ho, if you'll heed the call.
Yo, ho, the winner takes all.
Yo, ho, if you'll heed the call!

Across the sea,
They're coming for me,
They're brigands and thieves
Murderous and free.
Across the sea,
They're coming for me;
No quarter i’ll give!
Hail to your, Hail to your, Hail to your Queen!

I have conquered the darkest of seas
In search of belonging and black destinies.
I have taken the treasure you seek.
Come bargain with death and listen to me.

Yo, ho, the winner takes all.
Yo, ho, if you'll heed the call.
Yo, ho, the winner takes all.
Yo, ho, if you'll heed the call!

Across the sea,
They're coming for me,
They're brigands and thieves
Murderous and free.
Across the sea,
They're coming for me;
No quarter i’ll give!
Hail to your, Hail to your, Hail to your Queen!

Yo ho, will you heed the call?
Yo ho, i’ll see that you fall!

Across the sea,
They're coming for me,
They're brigands and thieves
Murderous and free.
Across the sea,
They're coming for me;
No quarter i’ll give!
Hail to your, Hail to your, Hail to your Queen!


12. SANDS OF TIME

I ache for
This city of lost dying souls
Which call and weep in the night
So broken and tormented by
Death and agony!

Something must come to an end,
The war cries are raging again!

I come to you on the sands of time
To drown the fires and turn the tide.
Open your eyes to the sands of time.
Leave all your pain and sorrow behind.

I thirst for
The writing so deep on the walls
Which quiver like reeds on the shore,
But the sea lies between me
And savage destiny.

Something is bound to begin
The war cries are raging again

I come to you on the sands of time
To drown the fires and turn the tide.
Open your eyes to the sands of time.
Leave all your pain and sorrow behind.

I hunger,
The bloodlust within me still beating
For solace amidst all this screaming.
If this will be the night,
Carry me upon the sands--

Something is begging within
The war cries are raging again.

I come to you on the sands of time
To drown the fires and turn the tide.
Open your eyes to the sands of time.
Leave all your pain and sorrow behind.


13. SKINWALKER

I flew the skies and endless night.
I walked the seas and sands of time,
Walked in your skin and known your pain.
It was all nothing and nothing can change.

I am here, existing beyond.
Your concept of time has all but gone.
I’ve always been here in your heart all along,
Your journey to the end game,
Your search to belong,
To belong.

Let them come, let them try to end me.
There is nothing here to die.
Let them come, try to cut me down;
Death has already taken this life.


14. BOSS FIGHT

What laid waste to dreaming.

Lonely World could be
(Stand up)
Hold on to the hope of
(Achieving)
Our only destiny.


15. SWEET PRINCE

Sweet lullaby,
Sing away terrors of this night;
The words etched in steel
For flame and sacrifice.

Dark mystery,
Salvation in death's embrace!
When all has gone to ruin
And the ruin’s gone to waste.

We write the words
That endure for years to come
We sing the songs
That stir our generation.

Sweet prince of mine,
What specters we have become!
Trading soul for spectacle,
It's no wonder we're undone.

Devil of my heart,
I came to save but fell.
The words we sang for heaven
Brought us through this hell.

We write the words
That endure for years to come
We sing the songs
That stir our generation.

Angel of death,
May you find rest
When wings have failed,
I cast you out,
I take you in,
We sing again
Until we meet our end.
