Epica (NL) : The Last Crusade in Hirson

Les paroles
1. HUNAB K'U
Numquam Remotiores ab origine
Media parte mundi
Funditus aberramus
Ultimum excidium sui
2. DANCE OF FATE
When darkness will reign and blind us all
When darkness will reign and blind us all
Allegiance will blind us if we do not fall
We cannot tell when morning comes
Is there a choice to live another day?
It’s hard to find a new direction in your fragile life
The precious time of your existence is now to come
Don’t throw your life away by cheating time
Sugared placebos only fool your mind
[Chorus]
Now I want the water to wash away all my sins
The wind to blow away my thoughts without meaning
The fire to burn away my thickened skin
When darkness will reign and blind us all
Allegiance will blind us if we do not fall
Novas portas pandimus
What is the space - The type of dance?
I cannot tell which steps I have to take
I’d like to leave - Just run away
My feet are tangled up
So hard to face the pace of the clock
What do you think? - Will it ever stop?
So - Will I fall and not get up?
I take it all in stride
[Chorus]
Everything has a reason for its happening
Can’t you tell it’s your own spell? - And
Everyone has to dance his dance like anyone
Can’t break free of destiny?
We should open new doors
And close the ones that we’ve left behind
[Chorus]
When darkness will reign and blind us all
Allegiance will blind us if we do not fall
Novas portas pandimus
Et post nos occludimus
3. THE LAST CRUSADE
(x2)
Magna culpa nostra
Poena danda nobis
Usque ad finem erit dierum
Ad finem temporum
You can't force yourself upon me
And you never will
You can't keep digging in
Desecrated graves
No more innocence left to spill
[Chorus]
Don't be afraid - Participate and
Just give us all your trust
Your soul will be saved
Just honour me - I'll set you free so
Get ready to join the
Very last crusade
Ad finem temporum
You can't get away with your crimes
And you never will
For you'll have to pay the price
And the time is near
No more innocence left to kill
[Chorus]
Magna culpa nostra
Poena danda nobis
Usque ad finem erit dierum
Ad finem temporum
[Chorus] (x2)
Get ready to taste the
Final victory
Ad finem temporum
4. BLANK INFINITY
Trying to keep myself afloat upon this stream
But a thought is pulling me down
Pulling me all the way down
[Pre-Chorus]
We are wandering towards a blank infinity
And extinguishing will now be the only way
To diminish your sins
This vortex can't be filled up again
A hole in space and time
Do you cry to the heaven's high
When you're confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder why
These leaden tears will never dry?
They'll leave behind so many shadows in my mind
High in the sky - All of the clouds are passing by
Wait for the storm - Wait for the rain
Wait for the tears to fall down on me
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you cry to the heaven's high
When you're confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder why
These leaden tears will never dry?
They'll leave behind so many shadows
Living in me - Living in all the memories - In my life
Do you wonder why
These tears never dry?
Time forced into life
Living in my mind
Can we ever find a way in this labyrinth without end?
Labyrinth has no end
Which turn should I take?
Left or right?
Should I stay?
Should I be the one?
Do you cry to the heaven's high
When you're confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder why
These leaden tears will never dry?
They'll leave behind so many shadows
This substance in time forced into life
But still exists because it's here
Living in me - Living in all the memories - In my life
Lost inside blank infinity
5. ILLUSIVE CONSENSUS
So sweet caress - Never long to last
You entered my soul and gave hope to my life
So sweet caress - Never long to last
You left me behind all alone and aghast
Captured inside such an austere Elysium
[Chorus]
Imperfect feelings - Futile grief
Love a device against all solitude
As it all went on - The love became
A field in a dream that once had been real
So sweet caress - Never long to last
Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate
Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry
[Chorus]
Primo somniare videbamur
Deinde veritas se praecipitavit
[Bridge]
I secretly longed for something
Which had never existed
First I thought it was a dream
But then it smashed into reality
Beautiful on the outside - Decayed deeply within
[Bridge]
Devoted to a body without a soul
Numquam non tibi diffidam
6. SEIF AL DIN
The origin of a dogma
Placed in a new millennium
Vilified demons have been embraced
And given a warm - Warm welcome
The Seif al Din
Hasn't got the ghost of a chance to rust
Because it has always been kept in shape
In serving the one Almighty
The rudiments have always been misinterpreted during
history, despite the good intentions of many disciples
who's faithful believe was strong and unswayed.
Most leaders interpret the old words to their
advantage in the attempt of gaining leadership and power
over those unfortunate enough to fall under their maliciousness
and manipulative ways. This misuse of trust will
forever stain the pages of history, echoing the exploitation
and the frailty of decent
men carried away by nurtured rancour
Perpetual distrust fed by a belief
In the malevolence of the others
When the beautiful unreality holds out its hand
It's better not to lose yourself in blind faith
La Illah Illallah, Mohammed rasul Allah
7. FACADE OF REALITY
Sanguis meus tibi non iam perbibendus sit
Macula aeternitatis
Numquam detergenda
Quisnam surget et deteget
Imaginem veritatis?
People created religious inventions
To give their lives a glimmer of hope
And to ease their fear of dying
And people created religious intentions
Only to feel superior and to have a license to kill
[Chorus 1]
Our desire to die is stronger
Than all your desire for life
There is no getting away from it now
Only true faith survives
People created religious inventions
To give their lives a glimmer of hope
And to ease their fear of dying
And people created religious ascensions
To subject the others and to enslave
Just to further enrich themselves
[Chorus 1] (x2)
This mass terrorism is the new evil in our world today
It doesn't matter where we die
It doesn't matter that you cry
We will take you with us
It doesn't matter where we die
It doesn't matter that you cry
Those people who lost their lives on the 11th of September
And those that mourn them
Now is the time for the strength to build that community
Let that be their memorial
A disgrace on the beyond
O servator, sempiterne
Te grati coluimus
Odor atrox quo nos superfundis intolerabilis est
[Chorus 2]
Deceive yourself by yielding
To soft words that cause no pain
Enrich yourself with different views
Learned without disdain
A disgrace on the beyond
That can never be undone
Who shall rise and unveil
The Façade of Reality?
[Chorus 2]
Is there still room for new dents in old wrecks?
A disgrace on the beyond that can never be undone
Deceive yourself by yielding to soft words
Enrich yourself by making up your own mind
Sanguis meus tibi non iam perbibendus sit
8. QUIETUS
The culprit - You act before thinking
Caught in your ignorant sin
And lying to your own reflection
You thought you could hide
Deprived of my own innocence - Denied
The infinity of recurring torment
Your comeuppance
See - Hear the torture inside
Devouring what was left of my pride
You thought it's not going to happen to you
Thought you could hide
Deprived of my own innocence - Denied
[Chorus]
The infinity of recurring torment
Your comeuppance
Dwelling in a mind - Mixed up and
Your regret has spread over the sea
Deprived of my own innocence - Denied
[Chorus]
9. MOTHER OF LIGHT
It always put me on the edge
To think of all the spoilt lives
Today I’m one step further
Not sure if I’ve survived myself
[Chorus]
Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
And I know it can’t be worse than this
So I prefer to sleep
I am searching - Without vision
For the answers in the dirt
I am waiting - Just for nothing
For the day that I’ll be heard
You’re the sea in which I’m floating
And I lose myself in you
I am feeling these sensations
I communicate with you
I am looking - Without vision
For a different kind of way
I am thinking - Just for nothing
About that specific day
You’re the night so you’re the dark side
Of the day you’ll never see
You’re the past but everlasting
Can you share one day with me?
You’re the hand that I rejected
But I can’t forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of - Even to die for
[Chorus]
Tomorrow - Don’t know where I’ll be
I need some place to go now
So do you know the way I feel?
Or shall I give up my belief?
You’re the lock I’ve never opened
‘Cause I threw away the key
I’m enclosed within my own thoughts
That will never set me free
You’re the hand that I rejected
But I can’t forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of - Even to die for
You’re the question to the answer
And without there’ll never be
Any thought in this direction
You’ve created this in me
You’re the hand that I rejected
But I can’t forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of - Even to die for
Serenity is taking over all I am - It gives me peace
And all I see are visions of my destiny
Why should I bleed and pay for the others’ greed?
We consciously sign our own sentence of death
How can you go on? - Did you forget?
What we have learnt from the past?
We can’t go on killing ourselves
And with us all the rest
Why can’t you see? - Don’t you regret?
[Chorus]
I am alone with all my thoughts
Alone without a hope and
I lost the thing I needed most
I feel I can’t survive this fall
10. CRY FOR THE MOON
[Chorus]
Follow your common sense
You cannot hide yourself
Behind a fairytale forever and ever
Only by revealing the whole truth can we disclose
The soul of this bulwark forever and ever
Forever and ever
Indoctrinated minds so very often
Contain sick thoughts
And commit most of the evil they preach against
Don't try to convince me with messages from God
You accuse us of sins committed by yourselves
It's easy to condemn without looking in the mirror
Behind the scenes
Behind the scenes opens reality
[Verse]
Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget
[Chorus]
Virginity has been stolen at very young ages
And the extinguisher loses its immunity
Morbid abuse of power in the garden of Eden
Where the apple
Where the apple gets a youthful
A youthful face
[Verse]
[Chorus]
Forever and ever
[Verse]
You can't go on hiding yourself
Behind old fashioned fairytales
And keep washing your hands in innocence
