1. SOL

(Instrumental)


2. ARCHAEA

[Verse I]
Freezing cold - boiling heat - corrosive acid,
All of these we have survived
Through the ages we cannot be harmed
Or be broken, alone we stand watching the weak fall!

[Prechorus]
Because - We are Archaea
Yes - We are Archaea
Bow before Archaea!

Now see and know what we are

[Chorus]
We are extremists of life
Untouched by nature, biding time in
Wait - for the day when we will rise
And claim our place above

Just wait and see...

[Verse II]
In the face of heat and cold we grow
Building knowledge - building might
Every day we near our goal
And soon all will know and fear our name!

[Prechorus]
Because - We are Archaea
Yes - We are Archaea
Stand down for Archaea!

Now see and know what we are

[Chorus]
We are extremists of life
Untouched by nature, biding time in
Wait - for the day when we will rise
And claim our place above

Just wait and see - the future!

[Chorus]
We are extremists of life
Untouched by nature, biding time in
Wait - for the day when we will rise
And claim our place above
Just wait and see...


3.INTO THE ABYSS

[Verse I]
Dragging onwards but not making ground
No forward motion but downwards spiral
No true home and no true kin
In solitude ever falling further down

[Bridge]
Without anything to hold onto in life
Out of work and only booze to keep me company
So I have found my way of life
And it takes med own into the deepest insanity

[Chorus]
Down into the abyss
One step at a time
Into the abyss, day after day and night
Behind me waning light, before me darkness falls...

[Verse II]
...upon the path I now seem to walk
Can't recall ever coming to this
Infernal land, lined with brimstone
Unreal I walk, start to question my own mind

[Bridge]
The line that keeps what's real and not apart is fading
And it's the line that I walk today
Descending into the darkness of my being
Death is calling me and I am on my way
Down!

[Stick]
My naked feet walk this razored path
My flesh is ripped by needles and thorns
Every step racks my nerves,
Every cell screams "go back"
But my pace unhindered I walk ever on

Through streams of lava I wade
My flesh searing off my bones
On skeletal limbs I keep going forward
Nothing can stop me on my way down the abyss!

[Chorus]
Down into the abyss
One step at a time
Into the abyss, leaving all behind
Nothing left on my mind but darkest
Oblivion!


4. SYMPHONY OF RAIN

[Verse 1]
The battle is won, but am I a victor?
My brothers lie dead at my feet
Friend or foe - none remain
I'm alone in a silent dark battlefield

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm bleeding a wound too fatal to live through
I am the last here to be claimed by death
Wishing for naught but quenching my thirst of
water, I send my plea to the gods:
“Oh, hear me heavenlords, I call to you!”

[Chorus 1]
“My masters, for you I have fought
and my death is in your name
Now open your doors of water and wind
and grant my last wish, the Symphony of Rain!”

“In life I have no regret; in death I have no fear
Reward me for my faith now then my end draws near
Gods, let me taste life in my hour of death
Singing thy names, in the Symphony of Rain!”

[Verse 2]
I hear thunder roaring at my words
And with no doubt in weary heart know I have been heard!
My gaze upon the heavy sky
I fall down to my knees and raise my arms towards the lightning!

[Pre-Chorus 2]
The sky opens wide by the hand my gods and
bleeds purest water as I've bled my blood
Drinking my payment and from the depth of my soul
I thank them, those I lived and died for:
“Gods, hear my full devotion as I drink my last fill before I die!”

[Chorus 2]
“The rays of water that fall unto me
Is a gift greater than gold!
I lift my arms high in wonder and awe
You've granted my last wish, the Symphony of Rain!”

“My thirst has been quenched, my life is complete
I now have my brothers and gods to meet
We will rally there among the grey clouds
My last breath be sung, in the Symphony of Rain!”


5. PYROCHRYSALIS

[Verse I]
I've come from a distant sphere
From this, yet another world
Different from all you've seen
Kinless and nigh unreal

Know I can't be defined
By your inferior minds
What your senses tell you
Isn't reality

[Verse II]
Bred by terror and hatred, carnally defined
Nurtured by a sea of flames ‘neath sulphurous skies
Cradled by death in a fire cocoon
Carrying the inferno, bringing our doom

[Chorus]
Born of fire, grown with hate
Meant to be the bane of all in hellborn flame
My purpose is my soul
From pyrochrysalis come to stop the flow of time

[Verse III]
Magma flowing veins fuel my dark intent
I bring my poison, my pain, my searing death
The earth ruptures as I practise my art
And all will succumb as the apocalypse starts!

[Chorus]
Born of fire, grown with hate
Meant to be the bane of all in hellborn flame
My purpose is my soul
From pyrochrysalis come to halt the flow of life
Slow burn!
