2. AWAITING THE CLOCK'S LAST TURN

Distorted perceptions
Arising from their minds
'Tis not my consciousness
'Tis their darkened souls

Wake up, I'm soaken in cold sweat
So messed up, I'm losing my mind
Reason seems so far-fetched
Demons, purge them away

End is near!

As legion echoes voices
They take a hold of me
There's nothing left to save us
How can it be?
Apocalyptic visions
They take control of me
There's nothing left to save us
How can this be?

Outnumbered by the malign
One nation chose to fall
Predicted, these are the signs
Destruction, the stars align

Stop screaming, I never said
We'd get out of here alive

Wake up, I'm soaken in cold sweat
So messed up, I'm losing my mind
Reason seems so far-fetched
Demons, purge them away

We're losing control!

As legion echoes voices
They take a hold of me
There's nothing left to save us
How can it be?
Apocalyptic visions
They take control of me
There's nothing left to save us
How can this be?

What have we done?
Skies are tainted red
Blood on our hands
Time's running out


3. ASHES

Endless reminder of my sins
Scarlet moon, shine so bright
Timeless searching for answers
Scarlet moon, burns me inside

The time has come, for a new beginning, born again.
Risen from ashes, to set the world on fire.
Once a jaded, and fearful creature.
A heart to waste, could lose my soul
So soon to realize...

...it dragged me down
There's a war inside my head
...it pulled me down
Emotional distress

Now your true self is revealed
Rising before the end
You'll be looking for the answer

Embarking a new journey
To lead astray all unwanted ghosts
Arising from this fire
I break free, enlightened,from this world!

Now your true self is revealed
Rising before the end
You'll be looking for the answer

The answer!

One by one
These chains come crashing down
One by one
These scars now fade away

I drag it down
Conquering my death
I pull it down
Spiritual warfare

Now your true self is revealed
Rising before the end
You'll be looking for the answer

In a world where judgment fails
I will not forget my name
Now the answer's clearer


4. THE LAST STAND

The lifeless bodies
Of the ones I tried to protect lay still
Feeding my spirit to avenge
And kill just to ease the pain

To fight for a fight
An eye for an eye
Redemption denied

Surrounded by the enemy
The reaper is getting closer

Now we will fight to the last stand
But as the battle rages on
In our hearts
We will fight within

Bloodthirsty wolves
Come to cease our land
Eradicate our souls
We stand before them
All for one and one for all

Against the wall your head will fall (x4)

Surrounded by the enemy
Death calls out our name
Surrounded by the enemy
We will never give in

Now we will fight to the last stand
But as the battle rages on
In our hearts
We will fight within


5. LIE FOR A LIE

The fall of thousand men
Won't be for now
They push it further
They made it harder

You warriors stand the line
That will break in pain
Before it all ends
It won't be the same

Behind their words they deceive
It's not as hard to perceive (x2)

They told me
I would go
But after all I've never been and never will be
Gave my life for it all
But all I've got was a lie for a lie

Gave my life
And now I'm doomed

Behind their words they deceive
It's not as hard to perceive (x2)

They told me
I would go
But after all I've never been and never will be
Gave my life for it all
But all I've got was a lie for a lie

Lie for a lie! (x2)

And now I'm doomed


6. THE TEMPEST

I cried for so long tonight,
Haunted by careless whispers
Embrassing winter's turmoil
This is my testimony

I have been swept into the tides of tribulation
I have been thrown into the arms of temptation

You begged forgivness,
Yet remain heartless to me
Your cruel intentions,
Distorted visions of love

I travelled the seven seas,
To see the world with my own eyes
I've witnessed wonders, I've witnessed horrors
Oh my!
I climbed the highest mountain to reach into eternity
I've witnessed wonders, I've witnessed horrors
Oh my!

Our vows have now been broken,
We did not succeed
My heart has now been taken,
We must now concede

I was suspended in disbelief
Countless nights spent in madness
How could you lead us into the waters
Our dreams submerged into the darkness

I travelled the seven seas,
To see the world with my own eyes
I've witnessed wonders, I've witnessed horrors
Oh my!
I climbed the highest mountain to reach into eternity
I've witnessed wonders, I've witnessed horrors
Oh my!

Our vows have now been broken
My heart has now been taken

I watch our world burn
I watch your world burn down

Our vows have now been broken,
We did not succeed
My heart has now been taken,
We must now concede
