DISC 1
1. PRIEST
From a million drying lakes
I have cried the tears of none
Empty shivers calling
For my time far undone
I assume that there is no one
That can find my peace of mind
They assume that I am guilty
But guilt, I see none
Priest, Priest
I was born to be a traitor
Invidious to the core
I betray to be the saviour
In times to come and times of yore
The fallen traitor hiding
When all is said and done
A crown deserves its right king
In the shadow of the son
Hold on, hold on my love
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one owns your heart
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
Don't fall, don't follow blind
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one turns your mind
Break your Priest
Priest
I assume that there is no one
That can find my peace of mind
They assume that I am guilty
But guilt, I see none
The holy fist of justice
Became too tired to fight
And Jesus, he knows me
And he knows I am right
Hold on, hold on my love
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one owns your heart
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
Don't fall, don't follow blind
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one turns your mind
Break your Priest
Priest
Hold on, hold on my love
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one owns your heart
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
Don't fall, don't follow blind
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one turns your mind
Break your Priest

3. YOUR STAR HAS LED YOU ASTRAY
(Your star has led you astray)
Judgement awaits
On who you are
A mind depraved by sabotage
It matters not
Your chosen creed
Your given fate
Can be redeemed
I declare
You're the sinner in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Earn your words
From the headstone engraver
Not one more
Sanctimonious saviour
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
(Your star has led you astray)
If there's a bullet with your name on it
You could hold the gun, remember this
And point it where your conscience calls
Rechristening the last to fall
I declare
You're the sinner in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Earn your words
From the headstone engraver
Not one more
Sanctimonious saviour
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Scorned at birth
Sworn to hurt
Earn your words
From the headstone engraver
Not one more
Sanctimonious saviour
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
You conceal
All the light that's inside you
Just be real
And use it to guide you
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Your star has led you astray
Your star has led you astray
4. BORN WITH A BROKEN HEART
(Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo
Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo)
From the opening scream
That remains on your lips
Like the torment in your eyes
Left to carry the blame
For the rest of us
You were cast aside
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Saviour of all
But you always knew you would fall
'Cause in life and death you know you are
Born with a broken heart
(Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo)
As his blood washed away
And your soul was not clean
So we condemned you to life (Le-pu-fo)
Made the traitor to save
Every one of us
Your truth was denied (Le-pu-fo)
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Saviour of all
But you always knew you would fall
'Cause in life and death you know you are
Born with a broken heart
(Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo)
(Li-fel-ka) It hurts to stab in the back
(Da-shi-mo) When you knew that from birth
(Ti-fel-wa) You've been handed the knife (You've been handed the knife)
(Li-fel-ka) To the victim of fate
(Da-shi-mo) Once the torment has gone
(Ti-fel-wa) Your truth will survive (Your truth will survive)
(Le-pu-fo)
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Saviour of all
But you always knew you would fall
'Cause in life and death you know you are
Born with a broken heart
5. THE 13TH
An illusion I am
Remain unseen
An intrusion I am
Was born a ghost
Lived as a lie
Prey to my woes
I hail your words
But I'm unheard
I don't belong
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I bear your lies
Your words of pride
Despise your codes
Repent my oath
Resent and loathe
The one above
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
Why did I become the one here and now
Everything that you need is just a vow
Remain in silence, a broken alliance
A traitor to life, to love, to all that we know
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
6. IN THE FIELD OF BLOOD
In the field of blood
An elegy
For the person
That I claimed to be
In the field of blood
In agony
Ashamed of the villain
That I chose to be
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
Bury my conscience deeper
In the field of blood
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
I'll take the longest sleep here
In the field of blood
What is my God?
What is my God?
In the field of blood
The truth will flow
What's in my heart
Oh, I hate to know
In the field of blood
No tear bestowed
The tree in the distance
The end of my road
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
Bury my conscience deeper
In the field of blood
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
I'll take the longest sleep here
In the field of blood
What is my God?
What is my God?
And I'm dying on my own
I will see this through
And I'm dying here alone
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
Bury my conscience deeper
In the field of blood
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
I'll take the longest sleep here
In the field of blood
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God?
7. 2000 YEARS A PYRE
There is no blood inside a stone
I feel the cold seep through my bones
No pain for me left to condone
It's you, it's me, it's us
It's us against the flood
Just pins and needles at my feet
Don't roam in grief so endlessly
I'm drained of love, but I believe
It's you, it's me, it's us
It's us against the flood
2000 tears a pyre
2000 years on fire
2000 years a pyre
2000 years a liar
(On fire, a pyre)
My demons kneeling at my crown
I'll never be the one to bow
In tides of time I never drowned
It's you, it's me, it's us
It's us against the flood
2000 tears a pyre
2000 years on fire
2000 years a pyre
2000 years a liar
I fell from heaven straight to hell (On fire)
My kiss much more than a farewell (A pyre)
Forever restless, but you know (A liar)
Way back my story set in stone
2000 tears a pyre
2000 years on fire
2000 years a pyre
2000 years a liar
(Two thousand years) A liar, on fire, 2000 years a liar
(Two thousand years) A liar, on fire, 2000 years, oh
(Two thousand years) A liar, on fire, 2000 years a pyre
(Two thousand years) A liar, oh, a liar
8. DEATH IS JUST A KISS AWAY
If the longing for someone is measured
By the waves I am drowning tonight
Expect waves when you're crossing that river
Await red to become anthracite
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
Sell your love, 30 pieces of silver
Eat and drink yourself, your sangreal
Build your house on your own Aceldama
Every relish can be your last meal
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
Seeds we sow
But don't know what we grow
Make or mar
Sear flowers on our field of blood
Hope we seed
We water and we wait in need
With heaven's call
Unavoidably buying the fall
Now there's one sun and there is one moon, dear
And whichever God's the one for you
Just remember that the one you choose here
Makes enemies, no matter who
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
Death is just a kiss away
If the longing for someone is measured
By the waves I am drowning tonight
Expect waves when you're crossing that river
Await red to become anthracite
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
9. THE HEART IS A TRAITOR
Well I thought you'd be my closest ally
In wars of life and love
But you find deception so pulsating
To satiate your lusts
Craving desire
You want it, you need it, you know
And when you break
I'm left to ache
I'm falling apart
All alone in the dark
When you see me in trouble, you go
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
But it beats on
In a hate stained bed where I play dead
My instincts are dismissed
You could not care less for consequences
You twisted narcissist
Craving desire
You want it, you need it, you know
I'm forced to face
All your mistakes
The friends that you've crossed
And the years that I've lost
Still you see me in trouble, you go
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
But it beats on
In their eyes
Every time
I would lie
It's love
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
But it beats on
But it beats on
But it beats on
10. EUPHORIA
In this moment of final farewell what is left to do?
Losing my words, I'm bearing the curse, are you crying too?
Forever I searched for the silence
To fill my yearning heart
Why does envy taste bitter
Of being just as wrong as you?
I speak to you though, as a friend not a foe, would you care to hear
To your will I'll bow, but choose I can't now that the end is near
I feel like I have failed
My kiss leaves me bereft
Your solace turns into betrayal
Until there's nothing left
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need of euphoria
Follow I will, but I ask of you still to look back at me
No more in hate, but in praise of my fate that I gave to thee
Your words are the nails for the friend I once hailed
The only gift I have from you
Moving in twilight forever
Devoted to your name
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need of euphoria
Grasping for reason in love and in treason
My senses have all gone astray
Screaming for calmness in light and in darkness
But peace is the farthest away
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need of euphoria
Of euphoria
Of euphoria
Of euphoria
Of euphoria
11. BE STILL AND KNOW
(Instrumental)
12. THE DEATH OF ALL COLOURS
Son of God
Seen you in a dream
Heavens above
We are torn, in need
Truly you said
To all who came
To all who will stand
And invoke your name
My name has been carved
In generations of the stars
Trees I have grown
But it wasn't my own art
You seek my praise
But even I'm not without shame
I begged him to betray
So he's not the one to blame
The perdition of cosmos and chaos
Does the human spirit die
There's no solace in all of your prayers
No salvation in your sacrifice
Your kiss leads to the death of all colours
For your life will be all pallid too
Lift up your eyes
And look at the cloud
In the pale light
And the stars around
Son of God
Seen you in a dream
Heavens above
We are torn, in need
DISC 2
1. THE GOSPEL OF JUDAS
You fill this canvas yourself
(Judas, Judas)
You the draw the lines, no one else
(Judas, Judas)
When they abuse your name
(Judas, Judas)
You break your own frame
Father
All of these words are your own
(Judas, Judas)
You set your story in stone
(Judas, Judas)
But when your sculpture's defiled
(Judas, Judas)
You burn your own throne
You found your faith and turned on heaven
Your blame and shame all be gone
Judas, Judas
You found your faith when all was blackened
You're now where you, you belong
Judas, Judas
You write the music yourself
(Judas, Judas)
When with the devil you dance
(Judas, Judas)
But when your demons want more
(Judas, Judas)
You burn your own score
You found your faith and turned on heaven
Your blame and shame all be gone
Judas, Judas
You found your faith when all was blackened
You're now where you, you belong
Judas, Judas
(Judas)
(Judas)
They call you a traitor
(Judas)
But little do they know
They hallow the saviour
(Judas)
And nothing do they know
You found your faith and turned on heaven
Your blame and shame all be gone
Judas, Judas
You found your faith when all was blackened
You're now where you, you belong
Judas, Judas
(Judas, Judas)
(Judas, Judas)
2. VIVA VENDETTA
A light in the sorrow
A life beyond this death
Oh, give me a reason
A kill for the arrow
A heart behind this breath
Give me a purpose
A point for tomorrow
A cellar gate to shut
Oh, give me a reason
A Daimon to harrow
A vein that I may cut
You bleed, you cry
You're crucified
But never shall you die
Viva Vendetta
The redder, the better
A bleeding heart can't lie
Viva Vendetta
You're bleeding forever
I'll never let you die
Let you die
Give me a purpose
Some worth for the worthless
A downfall to enhance
Oh, give me a reason
To punish this treason
A revengeful romance
Witful intent
I won't relent
Good God, I'll take my time
You bleed, you cry
You're crucified
But never shall you die
Viva Vendetta
The redder, the better
A bleeding heart can't lie
Viva Vendetta
You're bleeding forever
I'll never let you die
Let you die
No!
No!
Thrown to the dogs
Cut right to the core
It's never enough anymore
Give me a purpose
A light in the sorrow
A life beyond this death
Viva Vendetta
The redder, the better
A bleeding heart can't lie
Viva Vendetta
You're bleeding forever
I'll never let you die
Let you die
Viva Vendetta
Viva Vendetta
Viva Vendetta
Viva Vendetta
I'll never let you die
3. ARGENT
To kneel and choke before the hive
I fall unto these hands
I call into the black
Are you out there?
Are you out there?
I suffer
Your thirteenth suffers
Are you out there?
I'm clinging to the dark
Are you out there?
My fallen counterpart
Betrayal burns
Like the silver in my heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
Now steal into oblivion
Beneath the true obsidian
I fall unto the heath
I call into the deep
Are you out there?
Are you out there?
I suffer
Your thirteenth suffers
Are you out there?
I'm clinging to the dark
Are you out there?
My fallen counterpart
Betrayal burns
Like the silver in my heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
The error of the stars
The error of the stars
A searing oath
In the circles of his heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
Are you out there?
I'm clinging to the dark
Are you out there?
My fallen counterpart
Betrayal burns
Like the silver in my heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
From fields of blood
To the furnace of his heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
4. THE HEARTBEAT OF THE DEVIL
My empire feeds on me
Worn out, I'm a ghost
What could I do to bring you closer?
Stand with me on the edge of the sky
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Deep eyes, dark diamonds
A desperate silent cry
What could I do to make you free me?
Teach me to satisfy your desires
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel me
Come here and see me
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
5. AND IT WAS IT NIGHT
Into the dusk you stray
In search of an escape
A thief in need of grace
No soul is immune to
The melancholic moon
And nature's tranquil tune
I want to feel
That reason's real
And face the profane
For faith to remain
So daemons be clear
That we know the fear
The truth is riding tonight
In peace we kill the lights
And it was darkness
And it was night
We dream with open eyes
And it was darkness
And it was night
Beneath the lustred stars
Discover who we are
In other's tainted hearts
The mysteries enthrall
As distant wisdoms call
To echo through us all
In peace we kill the lights
And it was darkness
And it was night
We dream with open eyes
And it was darkness
And it was night
I want to feel
That reason's real
And face the profane
For faith to remain
So daemons be clear
That we know the fear
The truth is riding tonight
In peace we kill the lights
And it was darkness
And it was night
We dream with open eyes
And it was darkness
And it was night
And it was night
No soul is immune to
The melancholic moon
But fate has come too soon
And it was night
6. MY CONSTELLATION
The horizon will weep
When it swallows you whole
I still feel your soul
While our god's still asleep
In celestial bliss
Breaths like ocean tides
When we run from the lights
The dreams we resist
I hold you close to my heart
You're my revelation
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
You're my constellation
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
Oh impossible mine
When you will be gone
Alone
A night will be a lifetime
Will our prayers come through?
When you're silent I'm lost
In love, star-crossed
I look up and see you
I hold you close to my heart
You're my revelation
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
You're my constellation
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
Two moons
Aligned
Invisible ties
Blamelessly in my arms fall asleep
In my arms fall asleep
Sinking in eternal sleep
I hold you close to my heart
You're my revelation
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
You're my constellation
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
I hold you close to my heart
(You're my revelation)
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
(You're my constellation)
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
7. THE ASHES OF FLOWERS
All in atonement are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All the abandoned are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
When will the great day of light
Dawn for the heirs of the night
All the believers are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All of the godless are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
When will the great day of light
Dawn for the heirs of the night
Where did you go
What did you do
When you left us
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All in atonement are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All the abandoned are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All the believers are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All of the godless are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
8. ISKARIOTH
I can forgive
An enemy
But not someone
So close to me
We held the gold
Not long ago
A faithful trust
A common goal
And it was night
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Cut by the stones
They threw my way
Back when I knew
We could not fall
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Sacrificed
All for one thing
Impure revenge
Oh, the bitter end
Of empathy
That putrefied
Your legacy
Your death bell tolls
My heart aglow
A fatal trust
A friendless foe
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Cut by the stones
They threw my way
Back when I knew
We could not fall
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Sacrificed
All for one thing
Impure revenge
Who's justified?
Who truly lied?
No discussing
Who played the part
With all their heart
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Cut by the stones
They threw my way
Back when I knew
We could not fall
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Sacrificed
All for one thing
Impure revenge
9. A WAR WITHIN
I tried to walk a noble course
But doom had loomed from when
They spoke of pride but forced remorse
In everyone but them
Then I fell, then I fell into despair
All of them, all of them left me there
Way too weak, way too weak, too bereft
In these lies, in this torment, in death
Then I fell, then I fell into despair
All of them, all of them left me there
Way too weak, way too weak, too bereft
Too weak
A war that's within
The lost never win
Grievous and grim
A war within, a war within
The birds that circle sense my hurt
And flesh to peck is nigh
A guilt that man does not deserve
Is pain you can't defy
Then I fell, then I fell into despair
All of them, all of them left me there
Way too weak, way too weak, too bereft
In death
A war that's within (The soul that's without)
The lost never win (Can't beat the devout)
Grievous and grim (Weak and worn out)
A war within, a war within
A war that's within (The soul that's without)
The lost never win (Can't beat the devout)
Grievous and grim (Weak and worn out)
A war within, a war within
(The soul that's without)
(Can't beat the devout)
(Weak and worn out)
(A war within)
I tried to walk a noble course
My face, disgraced, won't fit
My punishment is their reward
They need a hypocrite
10. A WORLD WHERE WE BELONG
Paving my way
On blood and bones
Nothing will stay
But love alone
A world where we belong
A world where we belong
Lighting the way
A fire
Bloom in decay
Faith abides
Burn the earth before your feet (A world where we belong)
All that you feel's a phantom of grief
Making your way to new breeding grounds (A world where we belong)
Leaving behind the ache all around
Bring me further
To skies above
Bring me closer to the stars
Bring me further
From all I've lost
Bring me closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
Drawing the lines
In the sand
Fate is divine
My pain relents
Burn the earth before your feet (A world where we belong)
All that you feel's a phantom of grief
Making your way to new breeding grounds (A world where we belong)
Leaving behind the ache all around
Bring me further
To skies above
Bring me closer to the stars
Bring me further
From all I've lost
Bring me closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
A world where we belong is calling
Hope is what we have won
Bring me further
To skies above
Bring me closer to the stars
Bring me further
From all I've lost
Bring me closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
(Where we belong)
Bring me closer to the stars
(A world where we belong)
Bring me closer to the stars
(A world where we belong)
(A world where we belong)
(A world where we belong)
(A world)
11. APOKATASTASIS
(Instrumental)
12. WORK OF SALVATION
Which no eye of an angel's ever seen
Where's no curse of any daemon's been
And it was
Bleak darkness
And it was night
He was our light
He shone so bright
He shone so bright
No thought of the heart ever comprehends
No feel of the spirit understands
And it was
Bleak darkness
And it was night
He was our light
He shone so bright
He shone so bright
He was our guide
Throughout the night
Throughout the night
We have seen it in visions and in dreams
What no eye of any angel's seen
He was our light
He shone so bright
He shone so bright
He was our guide
Throughout the night
Throughout the night
1. PRIEST
From a million drying lakes
I have cried the tears of none
Empty shivers calling
For my time far undone
I assume that there is no one
That can find my peace of mind
They assume that I am guilty
But guilt, I see none
Priest, Priest
I was born to be a traitor
Invidious to the core
I betray to be the saviour
In times to come and times of yore
The fallen traitor hiding
When all is said and done
A crown deserves its right king
In the shadow of the son
Hold on, hold on my love
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one owns your heart
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
Don't fall, don't follow blind
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one turns your mind
Break your Priest
Priest
I assume that there is no one
That can find my peace of mind
They assume that I am guilty
But guilt, I see none
The holy fist of justice
Became too tired to fight
And Jesus, he knows me
And he knows I am right
Hold on, hold on my love
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one owns your heart
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
Don't fall, don't follow blind
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one turns your mind
Break your Priest
Priest
Hold on, hold on my love
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one owns your heart
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
Don't fall, don't follow blind
We're all at, we're all at, we're all at fault
No one turns your mind
Break your Priest

3. YOUR STAR HAS LED YOU ASTRAY
(Your star has led you astray)
Judgement awaits
On who you are
A mind depraved by sabotage
It matters not
Your chosen creed
Your given fate
Can be redeemed
I declare
You're the sinner in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Earn your words
From the headstone engraver
Not one more
Sanctimonious saviour
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
(Your star has led you astray)
If there's a bullet with your name on it
You could hold the gun, remember this
And point it where your conscience calls
Rechristening the last to fall
I declare
You're the sinner in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Earn your words
From the headstone engraver
Not one more
Sanctimonious saviour
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Scorned at birth
Sworn to hurt
Earn your words
From the headstone engraver
Not one more
Sanctimonious saviour
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
You conceal
All the light that's inside you
Just be real
And use it to guide you
Truth is all
You're the sinner veiled in the saint
Your star has led you astray
Your star has led you astray
Your star has led you astray
4. BORN WITH A BROKEN HEART
(Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo
Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo)
From the opening scream
That remains on your lips
Like the torment in your eyes
Left to carry the blame
For the rest of us
You were cast aside
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Saviour of all
But you always knew you would fall
'Cause in life and death you know you are
Born with a broken heart
(Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo)
As his blood washed away
And your soul was not clean
So we condemned you to life (Le-pu-fo)
Made the traitor to save
Every one of us
Your truth was denied (Le-pu-fo)
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Saviour of all
But you always knew you would fall
'Cause in life and death you know you are
Born with a broken heart
(Li-fel-ka, da-shi-mo
Ti-fel-wa, le-pu-fo)
(Li-fel-ka) It hurts to stab in the back
(Da-shi-mo) When you knew that from birth
(Ti-fel-wa) You've been handed the knife (You've been handed the knife)
(Li-fel-ka) To the victim of fate
(Da-shi-mo) Once the torment has gone
(Ti-fel-wa) Your truth will survive (Your truth will survive)
(Le-pu-fo)
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Heaven is a place where you belong
You went down to Hell the lonely one
Saviour of all
But you always knew you would fall
'Cause in life and death you know you are
Born with a broken heart
5. THE 13TH
An illusion I am
Remain unseen
An intrusion I am
Was born a ghost
Lived as a lie
Prey to my woes
I hail your words
But I'm unheard
I don't belong
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I bear your lies
Your words of pride
Despise your codes
Repent my oath
Resent and loathe
The one above
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
Why did I become the one here and now
Everything that you need is just a vow
Remain in silence, a broken alliance
A traitor to life, to love, to all that we know
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
I don't know how to feel alive and
I don't know if I'll ever be home again
I don't know if you'll ever see me fall
6. IN THE FIELD OF BLOOD
In the field of blood
An elegy
For the person
That I claimed to be
In the field of blood
In agony
Ashamed of the villain
That I chose to be
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
Bury my conscience deeper
In the field of blood
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
I'll take the longest sleep here
In the field of blood
What is my God?
What is my God?
In the field of blood
The truth will flow
What's in my heart
Oh, I hate to know
In the field of blood
No tear bestowed
The tree in the distance
The end of my road
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
Bury my conscience deeper
In the field of blood
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
I'll take the longest sleep here
In the field of blood
What is my God?
What is my God?
And I'm dying on my own
I will see this through
And I'm dying here alone
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
Bury my conscience deeper
In the field of blood
Leave me to mourn for what I've done
I have no need for anyone
I'll take the longest sleep here
In the field of blood
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God? (And I'm dying on my own)
What is my God?
7. 2000 YEARS A PYRE
There is no blood inside a stone
I feel the cold seep through my bones
No pain for me left to condone
It's you, it's me, it's us
It's us against the flood
Just pins and needles at my feet
Don't roam in grief so endlessly
I'm drained of love, but I believe
It's you, it's me, it's us
It's us against the flood
2000 tears a pyre
2000 years on fire
2000 years a pyre
2000 years a liar
(On fire, a pyre)
My demons kneeling at my crown
I'll never be the one to bow
In tides of time I never drowned
It's you, it's me, it's us
It's us against the flood
2000 tears a pyre
2000 years on fire
2000 years a pyre
2000 years a liar
I fell from heaven straight to hell (On fire)
My kiss much more than a farewell (A pyre)
Forever restless, but you know (A liar)
Way back my story set in stone
2000 tears a pyre
2000 years on fire
2000 years a pyre
2000 years a liar
(Two thousand years) A liar, on fire, 2000 years a liar
(Two thousand years) A liar, on fire, 2000 years, oh
(Two thousand years) A liar, on fire, 2000 years a pyre
(Two thousand years) A liar, oh, a liar
8. DEATH IS JUST A KISS AWAY
If the longing for someone is measured
By the waves I am drowning tonight
Expect waves when you're crossing that river
Await red to become anthracite
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
Sell your love, 30 pieces of silver
Eat and drink yourself, your sangreal
Build your house on your own Aceldama
Every relish can be your last meal
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
Seeds we sow
But don't know what we grow
Make or mar
Sear flowers on our field of blood
Hope we seed
We water and we wait in need
With heaven's call
Unavoidably buying the fall
Now there's one sun and there is one moon, dear
And whichever God's the one for you
Just remember that the one you choose here
Makes enemies, no matter who
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
Death is just a kiss away
If the longing for someone is measured
By the waves I am drowning tonight
Expect waves when you're crossing that river
Await red to become anthracite
Oh well, love is here and so is hate
But mainly death is what dictates
Love is endless, immortal they say
So might be truth
Fair enough but be that as it may
Death is just a kiss away
9. THE HEART IS A TRAITOR
Well I thought you'd be my closest ally
In wars of life and love
But you find deception so pulsating
To satiate your lusts
Craving desire
You want it, you need it, you know
And when you break
I'm left to ache
I'm falling apart
All alone in the dark
When you see me in trouble, you go
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
But it beats on
In a hate stained bed where I play dead
My instincts are dismissed
You could not care less for consequences
You twisted narcissist
Craving desire
You want it, you need it, you know
I'm forced to face
All your mistakes
The friends that you've crossed
And the years that I've lost
Still you see me in trouble, you go
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
But it beats on
In their eyes
Every time
I would lie
It's love
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
The heart is a traitor
It hurts me the most
Delusion creator
My own secret ghost
But it beats on
But it beats on
But it beats on
10. EUPHORIA
In this moment of final farewell what is left to do?
Losing my words, I'm bearing the curse, are you crying too?
Forever I searched for the silence
To fill my yearning heart
Why does envy taste bitter
Of being just as wrong as you?
I speak to you though, as a friend not a foe, would you care to hear
To your will I'll bow, but choose I can't now that the end is near
I feel like I have failed
My kiss leaves me bereft
Your solace turns into betrayal
Until there's nothing left
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need of euphoria
Follow I will, but I ask of you still to look back at me
No more in hate, but in praise of my fate that I gave to thee
Your words are the nails for the friend I once hailed
The only gift I have from you
Moving in twilight forever
Devoted to your name
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need of euphoria
Grasping for reason in love and in treason
My senses have all gone astray
Screaming for calmness in light and in darkness
But peace is the farthest away
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need
Dream with me of euphoria
Drown in the starlight, no beautiful decay
Free, redeemed in Utopia
Forever in grief, desperate in need of euphoria
Of euphoria
Of euphoria
Of euphoria
Of euphoria
11. BE STILL AND KNOW
(Instrumental)
12. THE DEATH OF ALL COLOURS
Son of God
Seen you in a dream
Heavens above
We are torn, in need
Truly you said
To all who came
To all who will stand
And invoke your name
My name has been carved
In generations of the stars
Trees I have grown
But it wasn't my own art
You seek my praise
But even I'm not without shame
I begged him to betray
So he's not the one to blame
The perdition of cosmos and chaos
Does the human spirit die
There's no solace in all of your prayers
No salvation in your sacrifice
Your kiss leads to the death of all colours
For your life will be all pallid too
Lift up your eyes
And look at the cloud
In the pale light
And the stars around
Son of God
Seen you in a dream
Heavens above
We are torn, in need
DISC 2
1. THE GOSPEL OF JUDAS
You fill this canvas yourself
(Judas, Judas)
You the draw the lines, no one else
(Judas, Judas)
When they abuse your name
(Judas, Judas)
You break your own frame
Father
All of these words are your own
(Judas, Judas)
You set your story in stone
(Judas, Judas)
But when your sculpture's defiled
(Judas, Judas)
You burn your own throne
You found your faith and turned on heaven
Your blame and shame all be gone
Judas, Judas
You found your faith when all was blackened
You're now where you, you belong
Judas, Judas
You write the music yourself
(Judas, Judas)
When with the devil you dance
(Judas, Judas)
But when your demons want more
(Judas, Judas)
You burn your own score
You found your faith and turned on heaven
Your blame and shame all be gone
Judas, Judas
You found your faith when all was blackened
You're now where you, you belong
Judas, Judas
(Judas)
(Judas)
They call you a traitor
(Judas)
But little do they know
They hallow the saviour
(Judas)
And nothing do they know
You found your faith and turned on heaven
Your blame and shame all be gone
Judas, Judas
You found your faith when all was blackened
You're now where you, you belong
Judas, Judas
(Judas, Judas)
(Judas, Judas)
2. VIVA VENDETTA
A light in the sorrow
A life beyond this death
Oh, give me a reason
A kill for the arrow
A heart behind this breath
Give me a purpose
A point for tomorrow
A cellar gate to shut
Oh, give me a reason
A Daimon to harrow
A vein that I may cut
You bleed, you cry
You're crucified
But never shall you die
Viva Vendetta
The redder, the better
A bleeding heart can't lie
Viva Vendetta
You're bleeding forever
I'll never let you die
Let you die
Give me a purpose
Some worth for the worthless
A downfall to enhance
Oh, give me a reason
To punish this treason
A revengeful romance
Witful intent
I won't relent
Good God, I'll take my time
You bleed, you cry
You're crucified
But never shall you die
Viva Vendetta
The redder, the better
A bleeding heart can't lie
Viva Vendetta
You're bleeding forever
I'll never let you die
Let you die
No!
No!
Thrown to the dogs
Cut right to the core
It's never enough anymore
Give me a purpose
A light in the sorrow
A life beyond this death
Viva Vendetta
The redder, the better
A bleeding heart can't lie
Viva Vendetta
You're bleeding forever
I'll never let you die
Let you die
Viva Vendetta
Viva Vendetta
Viva Vendetta
Viva Vendetta
I'll never let you die
3. ARGENT
To kneel and choke before the hive
I fall unto these hands
I call into the black
Are you out there?
Are you out there?
I suffer
Your thirteenth suffers
Are you out there?
I'm clinging to the dark
Are you out there?
My fallen counterpart
Betrayal burns
Like the silver in my heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
Now steal into oblivion
Beneath the true obsidian
I fall unto the heath
I call into the deep
Are you out there?
Are you out there?
I suffer
Your thirteenth suffers
Are you out there?
I'm clinging to the dark
Are you out there?
My fallen counterpart
Betrayal burns
Like the silver in my heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
The error of the stars
The error of the stars
A searing oath
In the circles of his heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
Are you out there?
I'm clinging to the dark
Are you out there?
My fallen counterpart
Betrayal burns
Like the silver in my heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
From fields of blood
To the furnace of his heart
Are you out there?
The error of the stars
4. THE HEARTBEAT OF THE DEVIL
My empire feeds on me
Worn out, I'm a ghost
What could I do to bring you closer?
Stand with me on the edge of the sky
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Deep eyes, dark diamonds
A desperate silent cry
What could I do to make you free me?
Teach me to satisfy your desires
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel me
Come here and see me
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
5. AND IT WAS IT NIGHT
Into the dusk you stray
In search of an escape
A thief in need of grace
No soul is immune to
The melancholic moon
And nature's tranquil tune
I want to feel
That reason's real
And face the profane
For faith to remain
So daemons be clear
That we know the fear
The truth is riding tonight
In peace we kill the lights
And it was darkness
And it was night
We dream with open eyes
And it was darkness
And it was night
Beneath the lustred stars
Discover who we are
In other's tainted hearts
The mysteries enthrall
As distant wisdoms call
To echo through us all
In peace we kill the lights
And it was darkness
And it was night
We dream with open eyes
And it was darkness
And it was night
I want to feel
That reason's real
And face the profane
For faith to remain
So daemons be clear
That we know the fear
The truth is riding tonight
In peace we kill the lights
And it was darkness
And it was night
We dream with open eyes
And it was darkness
And it was night
And it was night
No soul is immune to
The melancholic moon
But fate has come too soon
And it was night
6. MY CONSTELLATION
The horizon will weep
When it swallows you whole
I still feel your soul
While our god's still asleep
In celestial bliss
Breaths like ocean tides
When we run from the lights
The dreams we resist
I hold you close to my heart
You're my revelation
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
You're my constellation
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
Oh impossible mine
When you will be gone
Alone
A night will be a lifetime
Will our prayers come through?
When you're silent I'm lost
In love, star-crossed
I look up and see you
I hold you close to my heart
You're my revelation
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
You're my constellation
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
Two moons
Aligned
Invisible ties
Blamelessly in my arms fall asleep
In my arms fall asleep
Sinking in eternal sleep
I hold you close to my heart
You're my revelation
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
You're my constellation
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
I hold you close to my heart
(You're my revelation)
You're my revelation
And my cross
I'll always follow your stars
(You're my constellation)
You're my constellation
When I'm lost
7. THE ASHES OF FLOWERS
All in atonement are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All the abandoned are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
When will the great day of light
Dawn for the heirs of the night
All the believers are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All of the godless are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
When will the great day of light
Dawn for the heirs of the night
Where did you go
What did you do
When you left us
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All in atonement are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All the abandoned are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All the believers are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
All of the godless are
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
Gone with the ashes of flowers
8. ISKARIOTH
I can forgive
An enemy
But not someone
So close to me
We held the gold
Not long ago
A faithful trust
A common goal
And it was night
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Cut by the stones
They threw my way
Back when I knew
We could not fall
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Sacrificed
All for one thing
Impure revenge
Oh, the bitter end
Of empathy
That putrefied
Your legacy
Your death bell tolls
My heart aglow
A fatal trust
A friendless foe
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Cut by the stones
They threw my way
Back when I knew
We could not fall
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Sacrificed
All for one thing
Impure revenge
Who's justified?
Who truly lied?
No discussing
Who played the part
With all their heart
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Cut by the stones
They threw my way
Back when I knew
We could not fall
Other than truth
I feared nothing
Suffered the cruel
Time and again
Sacrificed
All for one thing
Impure revenge
9. A WAR WITHIN
I tried to walk a noble course
But doom had loomed from when
They spoke of pride but forced remorse
In everyone but them
Then I fell, then I fell into despair
All of them, all of them left me there
Way too weak, way too weak, too bereft
In these lies, in this torment, in death
Then I fell, then I fell into despair
All of them, all of them left me there
Way too weak, way too weak, too bereft
Too weak
A war that's within
The lost never win
Grievous and grim
A war within, a war within
The birds that circle sense my hurt
And flesh to peck is nigh
A guilt that man does not deserve
Is pain you can't defy
Then I fell, then I fell into despair
All of them, all of them left me there
Way too weak, way too weak, too bereft
In death
A war that's within (The soul that's without)
The lost never win (Can't beat the devout)
Grievous and grim (Weak and worn out)
A war within, a war within
A war that's within (The soul that's without)
The lost never win (Can't beat the devout)
Grievous and grim (Weak and worn out)
A war within, a war within
(The soul that's without)
(Can't beat the devout)
(Weak and worn out)
(A war within)
I tried to walk a noble course
My face, disgraced, won't fit
My punishment is their reward
They need a hypocrite
10. A WORLD WHERE WE BELONG
Paving my way
On blood and bones
Nothing will stay
But love alone
A world where we belong
A world where we belong
Lighting the way
A fire
Bloom in decay
Faith abides
Burn the earth before your feet (A world where we belong)
All that you feel's a phantom of grief
Making your way to new breeding grounds (A world where we belong)
Leaving behind the ache all around
Bring me further
To skies above
Bring me closer to the stars
Bring me further
From all I've lost
Bring me closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
Drawing the lines
In the sand
Fate is divine
My pain relents
Burn the earth before your feet (A world where we belong)
All that you feel's a phantom of grief
Making your way to new breeding grounds (A world where we belong)
Leaving behind the ache all around
Bring me further
To skies above
Bring me closer to the stars
Bring me further
From all I've lost
Bring me closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
A world where we belong is calling
Hope is what we have won
Bring me further
To skies above
Bring me closer to the stars
Bring me further
From all I've lost
Bring me closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
(Where we belong)
Bring me closer to the stars
(A world where we belong)
Bring me closer to the stars
(A world where we belong)
(A world where we belong)
(A world where we belong)
(A world)
11. APOKATASTASIS
(Instrumental)
12. WORK OF SALVATION
Which no eye of an angel's ever seen
Where's no curse of any daemon's been
And it was
Bleak darkness
And it was night
He was our light
He shone so bright
He shone so bright
No thought of the heart ever comprehends
No feel of the spirit understands
And it was
Bleak darkness
And it was night
He was our light
He shone so bright
He shone so bright
He was our guide
Throughout the night
Throughout the night
We have seen it in visions and in dreams
What no eye of any angel's seen
He was our light
He shone so bright
He shone so bright
He was our guide
Throughout the night
Throughout the night
