1. ORDERED INTO DARKNESS

'For years the journey had begun
Ordered into darkness to kill the last
Marching through cold into dust
Through the rain - the army starts to spread the pain

'Til I return - I won't forget
'Til I return - they must be dead
`Til I return - I won`t forget
`Til I return - I know

Where they conceal
We have to find out
Behind the enemy lines
In search for victory
Conduct my soldiers in bad conditions
Days - waiting in vain

'Til I return - I won't forget
'Til I return - they must be dead
`Til I return - I won`t forget
`Til I return - 'til I return

...And then
Suddenly - suspicious silence
The calm before the storm
Surrounded by the enemy troops
About surrender we never waste a thought

If we die - we pull 'em with us
Peaceful - we will not fall

We strike the enemy
'Til the last
Into death
As much as we can

So we walk the path of fate
Ordered into darkness to kill the last
Surrounded by the enemy troops
About surrender we never waste a thought

'Til I return - I won't forget
'Til I return - they must be dead
`Til I return - I won`t forget
`Til I return - will I return


2. ARCHAIC STORMS

Swaying through unexplored catacombs
Archaic lifeform once known as the old
Surviving all ages
Long before mankind desecrated the earth
They were creators - cosmic imperators
Living secretly until now

Satisfy your curious eye
See the vision
The nameless tear your mind
No illusion - all you fear

Below the sand and desert winds
Long forgotten realm
Dare to explore the hidden creation
That's never ever vanished

Temples and artworks always existed
In dust of aeons
Surviving all ages
Untold myths bizarre, dead language whisper
Awaken on the altair, no running from the storm

Soaring into the storm
The last experience before

Sacrifice to the old
To the archaic ones
They are the ones
One with the storm

Below the sand and desert winds
Long forgotten realm
Dare to explore the hidden creation
That's never ever vanished

Swaying through unexplored catacombs
Archaic lifeform once known as the old
Surviving all ages
Long before mankind desecrated the earth
They were creators - cosmic imperators
Living secretly until now

Satisfy your curious eye
See the vision
The nameless tear your mind
No illusion - all you fear


3. AS SHADOWS FADE TO BLACK

Aristocrates and jesters
The funniest are the sadest
Expectations and hopes decieve
Tied to the ground
Dust to breathe

Do shadows exist
Do shadows exist
Without a light

Is this the place
Where our shadows meet
Where no light dwells on
Where the dark exceeds

Without future - darkest age
Will we ever meet before we perish
Towers of cold stone - none ivory
Chains still hold me here

Do shadows exist
Do shadows exist
Without a light

Is this the place
Where our shadows meet
Where no light dwells on
Where the dark exceeds

Without future - darkest age
Will we ever meet before we perish
Towers of cold stone - none ivory
Chains still hold me here

As shadows fade to black
Betrayal and confession
In the end
