1. CRUCIFIXION OF FAITH

"Thousand years ago, a tear fell from God's eyes.
Into the most peaceful ocean it fell from heaven,
And blue waters turned into black"

The eyes of God are full of tears,
A black velvet sea of grief.
What is left for us to create?
Inside a world without mercy

Another prayer to the moon,
Another wish for heaven
Upon the cross our faith,
Clouds of guilt gathered upon us.

Whose eyes can see the truth?
Our souls can not touch the light.
Bloody lives, rotten lies…
Is all that's left for us to cry?
What is left for us to create?
Inside a world without mercy…
Upon the cross our faith,
And we suffer in the dark.

Another hope is all we longing for.
Another world is all we pray for.
To turn the darkness into light,
To clear the truth from all the lies.

Another prayer to the moon,
Another wish for heaven
Upon the cross our faith,
Clouds of guilt gathered upon us.

"Despair became the vanity of our acts.
An ocean of sins drowns our mire land.
Only pain walks inside our hearts."


2. THORNS OF PUNISHMENT

We are the gods!
We are the gods!
We are the angels!
We are the angels!
We are the gods!
…of all sinful lusts
We are the angels!
…Covered with blood


The pale sadness falls
And the eyes are closed
All sinners cry now
Pray for your pitiful souls!

Nothing innocent comes from temptation.
Nothing precious comes from filthy souls.
Bloody are the hands that asking for salvation.
And tears are falling ceaseless from the eyes
A bloody moon upon the sky,
And the beasts are coming
I will not pray for my soul to be saved.
I won't forgive those who gave me pain…

Per me si va ne la città dolente,
per me si va ne l'etterno dolore,
per me si va tra la perduta gente.
Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate.

Upon the thorns of punishment
Without hope we walk
The pain in our hearts reigns
As we gaze our lies

Nothing innocent comes from temptation.
Nothing precious comes from filthy souls.
Bloody are the hands that asking for salvation.
And tears are falling ceaseless from the eyes
A bloody moon upon the sky,
And the beasts are coming
I will not pray for my soul to be saved.
I won't forgive those who gave me pain.

Follow the shadows through the never-ending path


3. THE NEWBORN HOPE

Every step, another wound,
Every tear, another pain.
Upon the ruins of our world,
Falls the dust of our fate

Don't pray for oblivion,
To drown the memories of the past.
Pray for remembrance,
To give you the wisdom of God!

Lux Aeterna luceat eis!

The most deceitful view,
Is the one of your own mirror!
The most sacred light,
Is hiding within you

Psalms resounding from high above.
Preparing us to face the new dawn!
Praise the newborn hope
And bit farewell to your sorrow!

I have seen the truth that no man sees!
I carry the cross of a sinner without sins!

"He who binds to himself a joy,
Does the winged life destroy
But he who kisses the joy as it flies,
Lives in eternity's sunrise!"

Lux Aeterna luceat eis!

The most deceitful view,
Is the one of your own mirror!
The most sacred light,
Is hiding within you

Psalms resounding from high above,
Preparing us to face the new dawn!
Praise the newborn hope
And bit farewell to your sorrow!

Credo quia absurdum non credere!


4. REFLECTIONS & ILLUSIONS

You are the puppet in the hands of God.
You are the clown of your insignificant world.

It is time for you to wake up.
Break the walls of insanity,
Clear the illusions from your mind.
Break the chains of reality.
The mirror of lies… the mirror of life!

A drop into a silent sea,
Is all I ever wished to be!
Nothing more but a dream…
A bird without its wings,
A star without its gleam,
I am alone and I weep

You are the puppet in the hands of God.
You are the clown of your insignificant world.

Sadness and loneliness,
The dying words of a poet
Shadows and whispers,
The reflections of a dream
Shall I ever be released?
Are you still afraid to die?

I cannot see, I cannot breathe,
I have no voice, I cannot scream
I am the puppet in the hands of God.
I am the clown of my imaginary world!


5. WATERS OF OBLIVION

Let me taste the waters of oblivion
And heal the scars upon my heart.
Embrace me velvet sea, and wash my sins
Come sweet night and take my pain

Everywhere around us, betrayal
Everywhere inside of us, pain
And we try to keep the flame
That show us our way

Lost into the limbo of our hearts,
There is no Heaven beyond our sky
There is no Hell beneath our sins
Alone we walk, alone we die.
Like statues in the garden of silence,
We cry out for a little sympathy.
Forsaken by angels and God,
We cannot escape from the past…

Which is the greatest fear of all?
Is it the fear of dying all alone?
Is it the fear of loosing your soul?
Who holds the key to the greater wisdom?

There is no hope, there is no time!
There is no heaven beyond our sky

Let me taste the waters of oblivion
And heal the scars upon my heart.
Tomorrow fades within my memories.
And I keep staring the shadows of my past.

Endless sleep, come and rest me in peace!
Close my eyes and bring me in front of the light!

I deny you my heart
For the desires I will never taste!
And I betrayed you, my soul
For the lust that burns me away!


6. INNER SCREAM

I know, you'll never understand,
Why my eyes are filled with tears.
There are no words to explain why,
There are no answers,
When your soul is desperate.

Please stay away from me.
Your hands are too weak to touch my pain.
Please stay away…
Your eyes have never faced the horror I live in.

I am not who you think I am,
There is no peace inside of me.
Listen to the echo of my inner screams.
There is no salvation for me.

Please stay away from me…
Your hands are too weak to touch my pain.
Please stay away
Your eyes have never faced the horror I live in.

You can not release me.
You can not understand.
Please don't try to make me speak,
The walls of my grief shall never break.

I am a sinner without sins,
I am the one without dreams!

Please stay away from me…
Your hands are too weak to touch my pain.
Please stay away…
Your eyes have never faced the horror I live in.


7. REVELATIONS OF A MADMAN

Wild waves of thinking brought me to the death of life.
Forgotten dreams, turned into feelings of rage.
The dislocation of a logic mind,
The interpretation of my insanity.

A desperate scream travels into perpetual time.
Pieces of a false reality erase my footsteps from the sky.
I tumble into the vacuum of a wounded society
And I create Gods from your unfaithful hearts.

I create gods from your unfaithful hearts!

I seem to be the madman,
Who reveals the sadness?

Parasite hopes, fighting the age of truth!
Revelations forlorn, reigning upon the scorn!

Pride, against humility!
Envy, against kindness!
Gluttony, against abstinence!
Lust, against chastity!
Anger, against patience!
Greed, against liberality!
Sloth, against diligence!

Seven deadly sins!
Seven contrary virtues!

Blind my eyes to all the things you control
And let me see to whom I belong
Lock me into the cage of humanity
And let me paint my own sky

I seem to be the madman
Into the world of fragments
I seem to be the madman,
Who reveals the sadness?

"Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, And keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand."

"I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, and have the keys of hell and of death."


8. INTO THE VORTEX

Define yourself!
Define your enemy!

Into the vortex of time
The past, the present, the future.
The alchemy of life,
Disguised truths and lies!

Behind the mask of boldness
You try to hide your defeat.
Fearless eyes full of pride,
Lost into the vortex of time!

The clock is ticking!
Your soul is bleeding!

Again and again.

Fight with the nightmare
Against the cosmic powers!
Within the dimensions of fear
Die with your sins fulfilled!
Within the dimensions of fear
Die with your sins fulfilled!

Into the vortex of time
The past, the present, the future.
The alchemy of life,
Disguised truths and lies!

My wisdom is my shield,
Humility reigns upon the fear.

Behind the mask of boldness
You try to hide your defeat.
Fearless eyes full of pride,
Lost into the vortex of time!
Define yourself, define your enemy.
Find the virtue in your tears!
Fearless eyes full of pride,
Lost into the vortex of time!

The clock is ticking!
Your soul is bleeding!


9. BLACK OPERA (OPUS IX)

"All the truths and all the lies…. The dead wishes of a child. Written upon the grave of life. Secret desires of my heart, deadly sins of my soul… here, shall all be performed!
Tears of blood shall drown the past, shadows and lust and mire lands…. Agonies and pain, my sorrowful fate. No one will ever see, beyond the veil of my dream."

Behold!
Behold!
The kingdom of my soul!

Worship the land of the broken hearts,
Embrace the silence of the fallen ones!

Behold… the tears of heaven.
The days of the darkest skies have come!
The cruel beasts of mankind shall rise
And the night will fill with hollow beauties
Here is the bloody end of all hopes.
Here lies the faith of those who have sinned
Behold the kingdom of my soul!

Sing thy woe!
Find words that make you cry
Paint thy sky!
Choose colors that make you fly

Now the dawn conquers my soul
And I rise from the twilight of gods!
Now the wind embraces my sins
And the fire burns me no more!

Audi, vide, tace, si tu vis vivere in pace!
Hear, see, be silent, if you wish to live in peace
Aut disce aut discede…
Either learn or leave
Sol est fons lucis illuminans omnia!
The sun is fountain of light illuminates everything
Tempora si fuerint nubile, solus eris.
When the clouds come, you will be alone

Pulvis et umbra sumus
We are dust and shadow
Hora incerta, mors certa
Hour is uncertain, death is certain
Nihil lacrima citius arescit
Nothing dries more quickly than a tear
Acta est fabula
End of the Story
