1. ARISING ARMAMENT (INTRO)

(Instrumental)


2. SUPREME PAIN FOR THE TYRANT

[English version:]

Endless nightfall, swallow the sun

Void of silence, choking on the past's blood
Drowning in deception, taken by the black flood
Sea is rising, never feel or see again
Hypnotizing visage preaching of supreme pain

Searching for a sign
Guide my hands unto your will
Let me be the one
Watch the blood of martyrs spill

Light that flickers in the dark
Forge the way through blackest night
Strangled silence makes it's mark
Pierce the heart of tyrant's sight

With these hands I wash the blood clean
Watch it flow past visions obscene
Visions obscene

Endless nightfall, swallow the sun

Veil of madness, prison of the mind's eye
Falling in the vortex, stifling the last sigh
Poisoned cortex dooming flesh to weakened form
Bones are breaking, shattered by the last storm

Searching for a sign
Guide my hands unto your will
Let me be the one
Stand above the one I kill

Light that flickers in the dark
Forge the way through blackest night
Strangled silence makes its mark
Pierce the the heart of tyrant's sight

With these hands I wash the blood clean
Watch it flow past visions obscene

Let me stand up like a Taiwanese
Only justice will bring you peace


3. SAIL INTO THE SUNSET'S FIRE

[English version:]

Claim thine birthright freedom, unchained
Rapturous and unrestrained

Leave behind the past, the heartless wasteland cold
The sea, it calls, drawn to abyss untold
A void, a chance, damnation or a dream
These waves, lifeblood, to drink of things unseen

A heartless wasteland burns within my mind
The ocean's madness beckons us to find

Claim thine birthright freedom, unchained
Repturous and unrestrained

Depths abysmal speak infernal

The ghosts of old just shadows and dust
The steel that binds not more than rust
A new world pure, a resurrection call
A hero's death absolves

Ride the waves as a man unbroken
Bend the winds to my heart's desire
Live under the sky, and when it's time to die
I'll sail into the sunset's fire
Ride the waves as a man unbroken
Bend the winds to my heart's desire

Boundless as the sea, to live a life that's free
I'll throw myself upon hell's spire

Sail into the sunset's fire


4. NEXT REPUBLIC

[English version:]

Drowinig in sorrow, obscured in mist
Centuries torment, torture persist
Destiny'scold hand grasping in vain
Building new order from the past's pain

Republic born of pain
Nation will rise again

Master of the fate of millions battle ready for the fight
Never to retreat
Will to freedom rolling onward war machine of deadly might
Never will defeat

For our proud new nation we lay our souls to rest
For our sacred vision invaders lives we quell
For our sovereign country
we face the martyrs'test
For our piece of heaven
we storm the halls of hell

氣勢拼山河　石獅嘛喝振動
意志撼天地　虎爺嘛來護航
苗生衝雲頂　文毅鬥武藝
義理堂堂　天理昭昭　歷史明黑白

Drowning in poison, haunted by fear
Centuries torment, trauma severe
Destiny's cold hand reaching through time
Building new order from the past's crimes

Republic born of pain
Nation will rise again

Republic born of pain
Nation will rise again


5. RAGE OF MY SWORD

[English version:]

Blades, protect our land, we fight
To war, march into battle
Fight, we decimate our foes
With our lives we'll defend our shores

Swords, with steel we pierce their heart
To war, march into the fore
Kill, the heads of tyrants roll
Live forevermore

Rebel of the cause that is lost
Pound of flesh is the ultimate cost
Soldiers of the soverelgn ground
Cut their flesh, let their offal abound
Blood, our names written in red
To war, fly into battle
Die, the sanguine path it leads
Demon's black door

As above it shall be in our realm (in our realm)
The divine protect our helm (guide oru helm)
See the gods in their all-knowing rage (see their rage)
Watch the wrath of the violent sage (the violent sage)

Rule of my hand, law of my land
From the rivers might to the mountains high
With my blood and kin,where I choose to lie
Rule of my clan, make my last stand
As the war drums beat, and our emblem flies
We shall rise as one, and as one we die

Killing, burning, raping, maiming
Ripping, tearing, rampant desecrating

As above it shall be in our realm (in our realm)
The divine protect our helm (guide oru helm)
See the gods in their all-knowing rage (see their rage)
Watch the wrath of the violent sage (the violent sage)

Rule of my hand

From the rivers might to the mountains high
With my blood and kin, where I choose to lie
Rule of my clan, make mylast stand
As the war drums beat, andour emblem flies
We shall rise as one, and as one we die

Rule of my hand, law of my land
Rivers might to the mountains high
We rise as one and as one we shall die


6. BETWEEN SILENCE AND DEATH

[English version:]

Shadows closing in, echoes of the end surround
Footsteps drawing near, execution's breath unbound

Stalking nearer

Hear me now, Know my name, death I am, your soul I claim
Fear me now, feel my words, blessed the night, darkness and pain

Mountains high, streams so cold, water's edge, escape is told
Breath in chains, the cage swung wide, nature's womb a place to hide
Trees conspire, their words betray, footprints path to slow decay
Mind on fire, hallucinate, blinded by the fear and hate

Silence my olne guide, in time's thick haze Ieill reside
None by my side, trapped within and cast aside

On and on, down this hopeless road Itread
Caught between both life and death, purgatory's hold I dread

My time, no time, it's coming to an end
Your way, my way, we shall never meet again

Unseem terror

Hear me now, know my name, death I am, your soul Iclaim
Fear me now, feel my words, blessed the night, darkness and pain

Dim the glow within my eyes, primal fear, the self's demise
Hand to claw and arms to wings, animal from within springs
Through the branches, ripped and torn, from the earth a man reborn
Freedom calls, a nightmare's end, cruel fate's laugh, the rtap descends

Silence my long guide, in time's thick haze I will reside
None by my side, rtapped within and cast aside

None by my side, rtapped within and cast aside

On and on, down this hopeless road I tread
Caught between both life and death, purgatory's hold I dread

On and on, down this hopeless road I tread
As the undead


7. RESURRECTION PYRE

[English version:]

Silenced in a cage unseen
捍衛！公論！爭鳴！自由！
Darkest shadows reign supreme
獨立！先鋒！發展！民主！

戰鬪！新聞！開拓！天地！創新！台灣！寶島！
全元！新潮！發揚！人權！創造！進步！鄉土！

Field of battle, no graves
Memories not meant to save
Dawn of warfare, no tears
Victory find me here

Soldier not a glant
Standing tall, defiant
Warrior of wisdom
Sing our song of freedom

全元戰鬪！全元戰鬪！
Silenced in a cage unseen
捍衛！公論！爭鳴！自由！
Darkest shadows reign supreme
獨立！先鋒！發展！民主！

Warriors one and all
The soldiers war call

I control the sands of time
Freedom to defend what is mine

One day the tide will turn
The Phoenix burns
From the realm of worms
Forever Phoenix burns
Though the oceans may run dry
The Phoenix never dies
Though the mountains all may fall
Phoenix burns throughout it all

Field of battle, no graves
Memories not meant to save
Dawn of warfare, no tears
Victory find me here

Soldier not a giant
Standing tall, defiant
Warrior of wisdom
Sing our song of freedom

I control the sands of time
Freedom to defend what is mine

One day the tide will turn
The Phoenix burns
From the realm of worms

Forever Phoenix burns
Though the oceans may run dry
The Phoenix never dies
Though the mountains all may fall
Phoenix burns throughout it all

迎亂世狂風
做自由鳳凰
迎亂世狂風
做自由鳳凰


8. SET FIRE TO THE ISLAND

[English version:]

Trapped within where rays of light will not shine
Sanity a memory so unkind
Paralyzed by torture, broken and blind
Stand as one, we are but ghosts of time

Time has come to raise ourselves from the dead
Take the names forgotten back from silence cold
A sleeping beast awakened in us all
For blood and anguish now we will reclaim our souls

Battle cry! We raise our fists and fight
We defy! We are but slaves no more
Time to die! Watch it all burn to ash
Dead inside! Pure hatred rots the core

硝煙四起陣陣新性命
衝天地超越鐵網
規身軀的血 總會家己焦
雙手展開 戰勝驚惶

Shattered walls, the light of day is sublime
Lust for carnage dominates the mind
Disembowelment of the former dogma
Headlell torsos all that's left behind

Time has come to raise ourselves from the dead
Take the names forgotten back from silence cold
A sleeping beast awakened in us all
For blood and anguish now we will reclaim our souls

Battle cry! We raise our fists and fight
We defy! We are but slaves no more
Time to die! Watch it all burn to ash
Dead inside! Pure hatred rots the core

硝煙四起陣陣新性命
衝天地超越鐵網
規身軀的血 總會家己焦
雙手展開 戰勝驚惶

Remorseless fire we brave

規身軀的血 總會家己焦
雙手展開 戰勝驚惶

Death reclaimed
Cleansed by pain
Warrior's rain
Souls in flamed


9. DEFENDERS OF BU-TIK PALACE

Walls collapsing all around
Heads high face our own demise
Bolts of lightning strike the ground
Demons of the mind excise
Gunfire sounds the first attack
Brothers in arms to the end
Putrid bodies on their backs
Sacred symbols will defend

Who now stands before me like a ghost within a dream? (Within a dream)
When did come the day when things became not what they seem? (Not what they seem)
Outside of this palace where my loyalties to lie (Where do they lie?)
For the gods or demons with but one I choose to die

Bridges crashing to the ground
Heads high watch them as they fall
Tremble at the thunderous sound
Hear the siren's final call
Cannons ripping us to shreds
Brothers, where have you all gone?
Demons collecting the dead
Spirit's final breath is drawn

Who now stands before me like a ghost within a dream? (Within a dream)
When did come the day when things became not what they seem? (Not what they seem)
Outside of this palace where my loyalties to lie (Where do they lie?)
For the gods or demons with but one I choose to die (I choose to die)

Ghosts that I see, haunting my dreams
Surrounding me, what to believe?
Sunset decries, nightfall's demise

Mirror's reflection is blinding I cannot see
Timeless sentence
Sounds of the shackles grow louder, insanity
Timeless sentence
Timeless sentence
Timeless sentence
Timeless sentence
Timeless sentence

War of the ages, the violence returns
Immortal warriors escape from the urn
Hundreds of years and we pledge hundreds more
Infinite hatred for those at our door

千年也萬年
我孤魂已束縛佇遮...千年也萬年
生死簿的名字
目睭前一逝一逝...生死簿的名字

千年也萬年
生死簿的名字

War of the ages, the violence returns
Immortal warriors escape from the urn
Hundreds of years and we pledge hundreds more
Infinite hatred for those at our door

千年也萬年
Violence returns
生死簿的名字
Souls will not burn
Burst from the urn
Violence returns

千年也萬年？
