1. ARCANOS

Shiver in the night,
from the depths of your unconscious mind.
Deceased but not the walking dead.
Have we become the sunlight in their heads.
So summon forth the spirit of un-death.
For destiny is all that we see,
Elation,
Cast the rite of light beneath the heavens.

Unseen,
As we left them far behind,
As you see them, on the morning that they leave.
And I wont see you start a war in heaven,
This cry for help has left us deaf forever.

In this dream,
The scent of life presents this mortal blind forget,
Not the chimes of dread or doom,
For we live forever,
We live for never,
In all that you see and all that dream.

Arise,
You see the never,
Indeed,
Forever's in our midst,
This rage of angels,
And we are left to bleed,
And keep,
The Earth,
Asleep.

They have no home no resting place,
To need constantly,
To see his eyes,
of the Holy Son,
Cause I need,
And I bleed forever,
I bleed constantly.
I need Forever.

For all posses the secrets,
Of Arcanos.


2. AWAKENINGS

Waken to the tides,
Thrust Earth above the seas of fate.
For we are the last of our kind,
And we are the last of our line.
And you'll flee,
For the songs of the angels,
Right through me.
For death has its mountain to climb,
For fear has its reasons,
Its rhymes to taunt the mortals.

Through thoroughfares of mist,
Stone faces on the walls,
Haunted heroes cast their glances before the storm…

Come call on me,
The first seasons of ecstasy,
Clash mouths of change,
So far…
And it's needless to say,
That our world is dying and grey.
So come home,
You'll never be alone,
As cold as stone,
And you'll walk beside your son,
But a man is all you are,
You'll turn from us and run,
Why wont you feel.
To have all that you despise,
The path followed by the wise?

So come and stand uncut,
Uncoloured by your hate,
Loves a landslide become,
The torn mother of your fate.
For a handsome point of truth.
Shadows,
For the love of your home,
In another point of truth.

So come and see your dreams…


3. LOOK AT THEM

Follow me,
Up the back street of the handshake unseen.
They'll take you,
They'll make you,
Then leave.
They'll help you forget all you've been.
And now sleep is all you need.
Cold sharp intrigue,
They've left you here to bleed,
And all they want,
Is greed.

If only to taste one more life of this,
An empty kiss,
Torn in me,
This horrid bliss.
Coveted idol of peace,
Touched only by these,
Now.

Here is the sun.
Here,
Here indeed is the sun.
You're holding,
Needing,
Dreaming,
Of what has been.

Have you decided,
To speak to me or am I too inane.
Swollen ego's,
Of the darkened change.
Skeletal maidens of sleaze,
Touched only by these,

So take me away,
I don't belong here with these humans,
With their idle disease.
Touched by their hatred,
And lost to their pain.
So just hold me and take me away from this dream.

Here.
Is the sun.
Here,
Here indeed is the sun.

For here,
Is not home…


4. MARTYR DREAM

Faceless,
In the darkened safe of me again.
Is there any form or place that's made for three?
So they tell me,

To feast,
apon the skin apon the life,
Of this living scene.
The martyr's dream is shattered by his mirror,
By his faith.
And if you seek to leave this world,
You will be forgotten,
Just lay there rotten.
These Watchers help us if we're wrong.

This Hollow, Hollow me.

See this war,
And see this man,
as he leaves this world,
in his dreams.
The wind becomes the call of my name.
They fail to see the sunlight through the rain.

This Hollow, Hollow me.

Sacred Age so ancient, entombed.
From the ashes of angels,
Come sleepers with the masks of men.
Sacred Age they're waiting for you;
Again.

I don't believe in you,
Anymore,
Remember the days, the war torn winds,
When I was yours.
But now there is no more time,
For theses ideals to be alive.
And can they see us,
They don't believe us.
And they're waiting for us to fail.
As I stand here,
On my own again.
But they don't hear.
They don't hear this call.

Sacred Age you're ancient, entombed.
From the ashes of angels come sleepers in the masks of men.
Sacred age,
They're waiting for you,
Again…


5. LEVANAH

In these tales of Absolom,
As white crystal fills the air,
With the sound of distant drumming,
Stands a mournful silhouette.
And I'll redefine his choices,
Black madness in the air.
Come Cradle me,
Come sing with me,
And we'll flee from the dream,
Come lay with me,
And we'll flee.

Screaming for the answers,
In sorrows vines entwined.
The morning calls and tells,
That the Games about,
That the pains about to begin.
And the spirits rise,
No where nearer,
It's so much clearer,
We're here to stay.
Oh, I want peace on the other side.

And in your dreams,
I will come to you,
To see you crying for a chance to heal these bloodied wounds,
Into me.

Intrigued,
A hate for a lust without regret,
This fallen crown,
It bears a weight,
And I can only fear for all that I am.

And I'll redefine his choices,
Black madness in the air.
They're calling me,
Stop calling me,
Stop following me down.
They're calling me,
As we die.

And in your sleep,
I will come to you.
To see you crying for a chance to heal these bloodied wounds,
Into me,
As we belong.

And I'll redefine his love,
And I'll see the sun through your eyes.


6. POSSESSION

Silence runs,
It calls the daemons through the rain.
Ragging minds implode,
Come forward to the lesser day.
Mists of the abyss,
My angels running wild,
They hang alone,
Silence in the catacombs,
Reasons to defy,
Sweet poison breaks away.

For you,
Knew they were endless,
Covered by your designs,
Confusion, Hatred,
In your hell alone,
Bleeding endlessly,

The Rage of Angels.
Come in.
These brazen souls of lavish mists,
My Pain.
This living nightmare,
Fear is yours divine,
Complete insanity,
Repeats, repels,
This mindless screaming,
Voices in your head.

And your reasons,
They will not,
Escape,
This treason.
Possession, in your mind.

And your loneliness,
Is carried by tragedy,
Your only seventeen.
The answers to your questions,
We will see.
The black winds corrode,
Your only a foot step in the grave.
Cast out,
These creatures of the night.
Light fires.
Beware,
Possession.

Once you saw the angel.
Once you saw the angels eyes in me.

And your mind is all you have,
And it's slipping away,
You're not living now,
You're insane.
Oh the pain wont go away,
Tearing at your eyes,
There's a devil in disguise.
Possession.
Of your mind…


7. SUMMONING THE ANCIENTS

Have you seen inside?
Have you scraped the surface of this effigy with eyes unseen,
A gentle face,
And are you awakened.
I fall to my knees,
When I see you alone,
In this private mind,
As you give her what you've taken.
Falling expanses,
Carve lines in the answers,
As you call unto thee,
The sage of the Ancients,
Right through me.

Have you left these?
But please leave me as I be,
Just to see you lay as you sleep.
And I keep you hanging on,
Just to leave you alive,
And I see you waiting for your return,
In me.

It's taken me a lifetime,
To redefine,
To exercise the Will,
Of this shrine.
So sleep in me and dream,
Will you suffer…

The indecency of entropy,
You're touched by beliefs of men,
Raised from their peace to walk again.
And you see her caged away,
Unspoken to the slave,
And you I see you,
Wasting away…

Fallen from grace,
Masterminded solitude,
Of some secluded race,
To rise forth and demonise,
The destiny of hate,
The brave inferno speaks of his old deceit,
So summon forth the ancients,
Of thee…

And she's waiting alone in thee.
For they take her and they make her,
Still torn in me.
And you see her caged away,
Unspoken to the slave,
For they see you,
In all that you've made.
Beware the shapeless sage…


8. EMPYREAN

Die for me.
Is all they say.
I'm so tired of weeping alone,
And so you die for me,
Is all we hear,
Where are you,
Where is this freedom,
Of which you speak.
For we are weak.
You fear this burning here,
More than you fear,
To live…


9. FIRE

This flame here,
It seethes here,
It breaths here in me,
There's no doubt!

The fire burns,
It has to know my name,
For it sees you,
It is you.
In all that we are,
The memory of God,
Sanctuary of the inner.

Judgement of us,
Makes the dream son,
The face of the man,
Is covered by the stars of a universe expanse,
No hallowed hatred state.

These angels,
We need you.
These daemons,
We need you.

I will not need you asking me,
If I have seen the fire within,
The dark has cradled me for my return to earth,
As man of Fire.
Fire.

Witness the creation of the universe,
Before your very eyes.

Age of sickness,
Fear this our name,
Of Fire.

Sins of the father not in me,
The handshake of Gehe,
Not left the manner,
Of evil.

And these angels,
We need you.
These daemons,
We need you.
These angels,
Of Fire…


10. LAMENTATIONS OF THE LAST BIRDMAN

When we walked the earth
we delivered silence,
When we witnessed your birth,
we discovered ours.
And there were those who called out to the moons,
A fear in their hearts lest our doom...

For we were sorrow and our day was nearly done,
Like winter, the season of sleep

I dream...
Of wings,
Of hope,
now we must leave...

When you were children you called our names,
Like fire we came,
Summoned in pity's name.
And those who called out to the moons
bled tears of old for the new.

Into the wilderlands travelled but few,
To speak out the secrets of which you not knew...

Now these my kin did leave for you
The gifts of life and solitude,
Now learn them anew,
For I, like the land, am alone too...
