01. Intro

[Instrumentale]


02. The Raven's Cry
The raven's cry is a siren
That echoes on the earth
That you should enter here
The path you dare not walk
The path of stone still winding
Through lands unknown by ma

He beckons from the horizon
He beckons from the sea
From the full moon rising
The raven calls to me

Stone
Wind
Fire

Corridors
Of Life
And Desire

The air
Does
Breathe

With voice
That
Haunts

The wolf's howl is of triumph
That filters through the trees
A path of life and death
Of whispers on the breeze
The two cries meet together
In nature's synergy


03. In The Deepest Forest

In the deepest forest
No-one is reborn
In the deepest forest
Evil takes its form

In the deepest forest
Flesh is sealed with fate
In the deepest forest
Life mingles with hate

Every path you wander
Leads to haunting lies
Every path you wander
Is the place where everyone dies

And you hate

Fight lies and fight life
Fight every fear
Light fires that burn bright
For the end is near

Life is what life breeds
The forest is the womb
No sight for our deeds
The forest is our tomb

In the deepest forest
No-one hears you scream
In the deepest forest
They only haunt your dreams

In the deepest forest
Your words are not your own
In the deepest forest
Lives are sent to roam

Every path you wander
Leads to your demise
Every path you wander
Swallowed by your cries


04. Broken Burial

Underground in the roots of the earth
They lie under rock and tree
The spirits of the cursèd ones
Will never be free

Sepulchral forests
Haunted yet so pure
The altars are mountains
Steady and so sure

Neither living nor dead
The cursed linger forever
The place where mortals dread
Escaping the
Broken Burial!

Alone I see so many
Ethereal products of old
Never returning back
Cursed, for their souls are sold

Lucid dreams, yet so real
Living one they'll never find
Existing, not living
The curse is ever present

The underworld has taken them
To where the evil souls are kept
And only he who knows the way
Can enter lest be turned away

In search of answers enter here
The door is lost for those who fear
Those kept beneath the mountain range
Burial broken, not this age


05. The High Pass

The forest trees are speaking
Amidst wind's blow
The path they walk on is of snow

Ten thousand fearsome creatures
Their time to fight
Black evil marching through the night

The visitor leaves no trace
Of the path behind him
They march with demonic pace
Over the high pass

The wolf-mount ahead to guide them
The safest of roads
With machines of death behind them
Over the high pass

Great beasts are hauling
Machines of war
Named of ancient battles, long before

Legions are marching
Above the fields
Beating the iron on their shields

The visitor leaves no trace
Of the path behind him
They march with demonic pace
Over the high pass

The wolf-mount ahead to guide them
The safest of roads
With machines of death behind them
Over the high pass


06. For The Crows

FOR! THE! CROWS!
For the men who hang from the blades of the mill
The wind they ride long after the kill
Carrion birds will feast on the flesh
Atop the evil, cursèd hill

The beaks of scavengers pierce the eyes
As the opened wounds are filled with flies
Life is tapped from the bodily mess
Feasting on the beast of death

Ride, ride the wings
To escape the bitter beings
The crows… reflect
Their faces scarred with yours


Fly!
Fly!
Far
From here

Rise!
Rise!
Or hang
For the sport of the CARRION

They are scavenging pain from rotting dreams
The wind of the mill would silence your screams
Pecking out chances of second birth
The sound of wings shall cover the earth

Apocalypse comes not with fire and ice
But as human, carrion, feeding off life
Some sit back, what can be done?
Others still wait: thy kingdom come

Humankind is a brutal carrion race
Pecking out the eyes of the deformed face
Shallow words come from those who starve
Torment and evil ride the scars
Capitalize on the bill of sin
As weakened minds they shuffle in
The crow, the dead and the hangman too
Are inside every one of you


07. Cold Winds Blow

The time that I had known
It chilled me to the bone
That time it was my own...

The forest seemed to speak
And all I knew was real
Was thrown to disbelief

So won't you recall
Nothing at all

Cold winds blow
Falling snow


Triumph in the cold
Enter my old

Sorrow in the trees
That you have seen


Forgive my wanderings
Forgive the dark they bring
It is a human thing

Stray off into the blind
The snowfall in your eyes
The desert of the mind


I am prepared to go
Out in the driving snow
I go there on my own


I go without goodbye
It's something I must try
I know that I might die


The story has been told
As now the young are old
Or strayed into the cold

For those who cannot see
This is a purity
This is the way to be

So won't you recall
Nothing at all

Cold winds blow
Falling snow


08. The Sun Has Had Its Day

When you think it's lost
When you think it's through
When you think there's nothing
Left of you

When the forest trees
Shine with summer's light
When the moon is red
Like fire in the night

The sun has had its day
The moon has had its night
And all is red
Like fire in the night

Horizons rise and fall
With the summer wind
And all that's left
Is to give in

When the will to give
Is falling with the leaves
When the rays of light
Are not seen by the trees

When the forest floor
Ceases to be
All that's left
Is a bed of memories
