1. EFFIGY OF AFTERMATH

I spent my nights with demons
I've spent some days with rage

To feel it
Conceive it
Fading in the land of conscience

Warmth crumbling in the darkness
I sense my heart grow strong

Believing
Deceiving
Fading courage leads me through the times

Times of plague
Times
Times of plague

The face I bear for you
Is the one you'd never fear
Connected through lost hope
Scavenger for your tears

My wide arms will hold you
In a grip that's damp and drear
Embracing, erasing
Scavenger for your tears

I've born the blood of warriors
I've sensed the strength of reign
A power
Within lords
Rising higher as the sun sets

Strong men have left their weaklings
Weaklings have gone to dust

I'm craving
This hunger
Fading courage leads me through the times

Times of plague

The face I bear for you
Is the one you'd never fear
Connected through lost hope
Scavenger for your tears

My wide arms will hold you
In a grip that's damp and drear
Embracing, erasing
Scavenger for your

Lights will guide you
Heed no warning
Find your rest here
Home is calling

Lights will guide you
Heed no warning
Find your rest here
Home is calling

Lights will guide you
Heed no warning
Find your rest here
Home is calling

The face I bear for you
Is the one you'd never fear
Connected through lost hope
Scavenger for your tears

My wide arms will hold you
In a grip that's damp and drear
Embracing, erasing
Scavenger for your

The face I bear for you
Is the one you'd never fear
Connected through lost hope
Scavenger for your tears

My wide arms will hold you
In a grip that's damp and drear
Embracing, erasing
Scavenger for your tears


2. FORETELLING

Modesty fails
Men without valor
Conquests without a king

In the heat we feast in madness
Through the blood we relish divine
Embrace both the dream and waking
Of a world uncompromised

Come get another round
Forget about the sounds
The boundary’s breaking
I’m foretelling your every evil

The fathers betraying
In brothers’ beds laying
Here there is forgiveness
Offered by these young gods

Unbroken
Still standing
We drink here
Worlds ending
Assaulted
In battle
We sing hymns
To earth’s grace

Come, join me here
And gather round me
The fire sizzles warm
I’ll feed your minds the
Thoughts that you need
In times of chaos
Diversions are here
To feast on

In the heat we feast in madness
Through the blood we relish divine
Embrace both the dream and waking
Of a world uncompromised

In the heat we feast in madness
Through the blood we relish divine
Embrace both the dream and waking
Of a world uncompromised

In the heat we feast in madness
Through the blood we relish divine
Embrace both the dream and waking
Of a world uncompromised

In the heat we feast in madness
Through the blood we relish divine
Embrace both the dream and waking
Of a world uncompromised


3. WILL UNBROKEN

Left
Out here healing in the darkest pales
I’ve fallen down again
But now and then
It’s great to see a world that’s crumbling

Mad
No one’s ever here to catch the tears
Whenever they are real
The crowds are stilled
A masquerade of envy when they can be thrilled

I shall remain
Will unbroken
Ever unscathed
Unconquered

Cry for me, cry for me
Do the magic thing
Laugh, make me laugh
Til the end of mercy

I’ll see you when we burn in hell
At the end of our days

Bye leman, bye
I don’t need no golden ring
King, no more king
Conclude your pity

My solace lies there
Where our struggle’s revealed

Warmth
Fading with the touch of entropy
Your body’s souvenir
Still to dear
A burn left at the place where ice was cleared

Jailed
In a story we claim ours to tell
Yet you know very well
In every cell
Each step you take away rings your death bells

I shall remain
Will unbroken
Ever unscathed
Unconquered

Cry for me, cry for me
Do the magic thing
Laugh, make me laugh
Til the end of mercy

I’ll see you when we burn in hell
At the end of our days

Bye leman, bye
I don’t need no golden ring
King, no more king
Conclude your pity

My solace lies there
Where our struggle’s revealed

Graves lie cold with lives unloved
Stones tell memoires still untouched
Afraid you won’t amount to much
Just to turn to ash and dirt

Made your choices, left your life
Up to the chances of the changing tides
Let the burns sear in your flesh
A hint of pain I will possess

See hell in your eyes
Feel hell through my fears

Cry for me, cry for me
Do the magic thing
Laugh, make me laugh
Til the end of mercy

I’ll see you when we burn in hell
At the end of our days

Bye leman, bye
I don’t need no golden ring
King, no more king
Conclude your pity

My solace lies there
Where our struggle’s revealed

The walls have fallen down
I think I’m stepping out again
Plunging into defeat

To dwindle in the past
Be stuck in frozen memories
Cast into time’s retreat


4. AMIDST GODS

All is fair but none have faith in love and war
Both leave bodies fading in unclear mists of time
Hear the trumpets blaring
Eternity's waiting
Drums are beating your last march to
Red fields of rest

I want to ask for too much
Need to fly higher
I have to seek for this glory
I'm going to reach for the stars
Amidst gods flying
Give me your life
All your reasons

Lost dreams and broken wishes fade to nothing
Comfort lies in your last breath and
You will never go
Back to your home

Face your own grotesque demise
Find in your small end greatness

I want to ask for too much
Need to fly higher
I have to seek for this glory
I'm going to reach for the stars
Amidst gods flying
Give me your life
All your reasons


5. THE MIRROR

The look of fear becomes you
Alarm engulfs your face

Don’t fight the guilt
Embrace the breaks
Hurt will find its place

We’re all our parents failings
Illusions amplified

But when you find
Goals are lost
You win your best fights

Oh mirror, mirror on the wall
Reflects the pain that no one sees
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Take some time to look at me

Hands, been touched by murder
This bosom’s mad with rage

To long again
Fight for one
I will know my face

Oh mirror, mirror on the wall
Reflects the loss that no one sees
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Take some time to face me

Oh mirror, mirror on the wall
Reflecting fake reality
Mirror mirror on the wall
Shall this face belong to me


6. GODDESS FALLACY

Each time I’m calling out their names
Each time I see each wretched face
They’re etched into my mind
They’re burned into eyes

Forever will slowly pass
Just like each day has done before
And now I call out their

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

Betrayed - in growing
Deceived - while loving
My crowd - disloyal
Self-worth - in shambles

The child - abandoned
Seductress - misguided
A leader - overthrown
The goal - crushed by their

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

The monarch - fake bloodlines
Prophecy - realigned
Old castles - would perish
True love - uncherished

Battlefields - growing red
My anger - expanding
The time that - still moves on
My head - filled with their

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

Names
They keep me here
Lock me forever and a day
I’m going mad
Going mad screaming

And when they called
They called for fire
Burned me down
Then stoned me, drowned me
Left to rot until forgotten

Here I stand
At the end of life
I won’t fight
There’s no one left here
Universe is mocking me

Everything that you have said I’d be
Has fallen down, broken feathers
All the choices have been made for me
Trapped inside the goddess

Everything that you have said I’d be
Has fallen down, broken feathers
All the choices have been made for me
Trapped inside the goddess fallacy

Everything that you have said I’d be
Has fallen down, broken feathers
All the choices have been made for me
Trapped inside the goddess fallacy

Conclusion
Condensing
Our fate is
One point now

Conclusion
Condensing
Your fate is
The end now

Time grows faster
We grow heavy
All together
One last calling

Everything that you have said I’d be
Has fallen down, broken feathers
All the choices have been made for me
Trapped inside the goddess

Everything that you have said I’d be
Has fallen down, broken feathers
All the choices have been made for me
Trapped inside the goddess

(Times grow faster)
Everything that you have said I’d be
(We grow heavy)
Has fallen down, broken feathers
(All together)
All the choices have been made for me
(One last calling)
Trapped inside the goddess fallacy
