- Tales from beyond :

Longues sont les ombres des lunes passées
Comme les années sous mes pas

Il y a longtemps que je contemple
M'assoupir et mourir

Ta présence, mon élixir
Ethéré et vacillant

Maintenant, le temps est venu
Pour moi de finir ce voyage
Tu m'appelles enfin

Mon récit est long
Lourd de peines
Je l'abandonne…
Mon cœur est déjà mort
… et mon messager me sourit.


- Sanctuary :

Majestic it reigns
Over a land of hopes
It stands bold and proud
Magnificient
A refuge made of stone
Held together for centuries

In this far sanctuary
We promised our destiny
Blessed journey

Sylph you dance
Serene divine
Pure jewel of my heart
The air crystal clear
Laugher and delight

Precious haven
Keep us safe inside
Keep us safe inside

Sanctuary, guardian of stone (guardian of stone)
Shield our hearts from the storm (from the storms)
Sanctuary, guardian of stone (guardian of stone)
Shield our hearts from the storm (from the storms)

Blissful dream
It scams so real
Faithful, sheltered vaults

Precious haven
Keep us safe inside
Keep us safe inside

Sanctuary, guardian of stone (guardian of stone)
Shield our hearts from the storm (from the storms)
Sanctuary, guardian of stone (guardian of stone)
Shield our hearts from the storm (from the storms)

Foundation of our devotion
Companion for a life time
Unvieled prophecy
The dark stone
Never seemed so cold

Clouds gather and shade the moon
They bear doubts
Hold, hold me tight

Guardian, guardian of stone
Shield our hearts, Sanctuary, from the storms

Sanctuary, guardian of stone (guardian of stone)
Shield our hearts from the storm (from the storms)


- The messenger :

Whisper, candle flicker
A presence like a perfume
Shiver…

Why my beautiful one?
Your presence like a flame
Torments me like a dagger
In my heart

Rejoice my only love
Sacred moments
To see you again

Hold you, embrace you
Everlasting love
Beyond life, beyond death
Everlasting love (love, love…)
My Messenger, my memory (memory)
My Messenger, my memory
To join you in death
My life is a pit of emptiness
To rest together, forever

Our love is the scent of life
The light in your eyes

Hold you, embrace you
Everlasting love
Beyond life, beyond death
Everlasting love (love, love…)
My Messenger, my memory
Messenger…

Angel so long gone
Wraith haunting
The ruins of my heart
Ghost made of ashes
Dispel my endless love

My only love
Our two world are linked together
In harmony and so the soul shall be

Our love is the scent of life
The light in your eyes

Hold you, embrace you
Everlasting love
Beyond life, beyond death
Everlasting love


- Shadow's scent :

Ray of light bringing life
Labyrinth of your soul, so dark (so dark, so dark…)
Turn to the ray of light
You do not belong here to darkness

Scented shadow, guiding you
Leading, destiny
Turn to the ray of light
You do not belong here to darkness

Shadow sent to me

Like a shadow sent to me
From the darkness to light
Like a shadow sent to me
From the darkness to light

Do not drown my grave
With your sorrow, your bitter tears

Turn to the ray of light
You do not belong here to darkness

Shadow sent to me

Like a shadow sent to me
From the darkness to light
Like a shadow sent to me
From the darkness to light

I've been calling you
I've been begging you
Like a shadow ceased to be
Can you guide me now
Drive away my fears
Like a shadow sent to me
Like a shadow sent to me
To me…


- Chimaera :

The moon's cold blade
Sharpens my pain
Seeking solace in slumber
I roam, endlessly
Drag my sorrow
Like an another shadow

How many sleepless nights
Since the day
The light
Died in my heart
(How many) How many sleepless nights
Since you died

Chimaeras for company
Grief for blood
The haze of venom
Seeps through my veins
Oblivion the source
From which I drink
To quench my tears

How many sleepless nights
Since the day
The light
Died in my heart
(How many) How many sleepless nights
Since you died

I tear my memory apart
Searching for signs
For those thorns
Your smile left me yearning
Raw wind flays my soul
Like glowing embers
Scorching my hopes
Scorching my dreams

How many sleepless nights
Since the day
The light
Died in my heart
(How many) How many sleepless nights
Since you died

Grief for blood
I roam, endlessly
Drag my sorrow
Chimaeras grief for blood
I try, light, sorrow


- Sortilèges :

Thousands of ghosts
Drift with the waves
The Ocean, a mirror
For the silver Moon

Some of them are older
Than a man's life
Than a man's life
They appear tattered and torn
Almost mortal
Chained, helpless

Gathering of souls, solemn
Wrap around me
Like a wall of despair
Like a wall of despair

Hollow empty eyes
Dried bones of the abbey
Harrowing manes

The stone walls fed by other lives
Bleed a slow poison
Freezing my soul

Close your heart to them
Close your heart to them
Those who speak the language of the Dead
Will join them in misery
On the other side

Gathering of souls
Wrap around me
Like a wall of despair, despair

Murmur and sigh
Laments from their just dead hearts
Ghosts in agony
Mourning for themselves
Watch powerless their beloved

Lonely place, cold and bare
Lonely place, sortilèges
Ashen wraith, grieve and stare
Ashen wraith, grieve and stare

Lonely place, cold and bare
Lonely place, sortilèges
Ashen wraith, sortilèges


- Eldvitch mirror :

The mist rises from the waves
It echoes my image
Deceptive mirror, eldritch mirage
Memory of the stone, ghost mirror

The moon has cast its spell
Ashen layer on the icy water

Perfidious illusion
A vision of the past
Or a ruthless mirage
Of my empty grieving life
I drown, drown, drown

Mocking stare of the moon
A jealous sting
To remind me of my loneliness
Your tearful face in place of your smile
Not even a shadow by my side

For what crime do you torment me?
Is this my punishment, or jealousy?

Perfidious illusion
A vision of the past
Or a ruthless mirage
Of my empty grieving life
I drown, drown, drown

I drown…

Do you resent me?
Drawing me closer
To your grave…


- Heaven in sunset :

My soul drifts away
Lulled by the wind
Like a glow on the horizon
I slowly pass away

Land of eternity
Realm of the departed
A blazing fire that never dies

At the last ray of sunset
At the last rolling wave
My soul will leave this mortal land
With no grief, no regret

A pure soul only sails there released
Like a dream, it disappears
Slowly, slowly…


- St Matthieu :

At World's end
Winters are harder than anywhere else
The many-faced sea throws anger
At those who dare defy her
With their presence
Her metallic fires throw sparks
Green grey morbid brilliance

The elements in their feline wrath
Play with the mortals
Filling them with a desire
Of moving closer and closer
To the treacherous stare of the sea
Cruel games where the winner is rarely a man (rarely a man)

At the end of the path
On top of the cliffs
The abbey ruins tower above
The tormenting stare of the ocean
Age old resistance
Religious talisman
At the end of the world

He will leave the battlefield
Wounded and broken
After a wild fight
But will come back
Haunted by the magnetic chant
Of the unchained elements

At the end of the path
On top of the cliffs
The abbey ruins tower above
The tormenting stare of the ocean
Age old resistance
Religious talisman
At the end of the world

The abbey in silence won't surrender
Precious lighthouse in the nights of storm
At the End of the World
It stands again and always
For never the miracle to die, to die
For never the miracle to die
For never… To die

At the End of the World
In the nights of storm
The abbey defies
The stare of the ocean

At the End of the World
In the nights of storm
The abbey defies
The stare of the ocean
