1. ASCENSION I: CROSSROAD

(Instrumental)


2. ASCENSION II: TO REACH THE GATE

Exiled away
The one who'll save them all
Rises the songs of his ascent
Another name gave to the stars

"I will follow this trail aclaimed and sent to death
It came to me
They've conceeded my downfall
They gave me no chance"

A glorious strife under the frozen sky
Facing a storm alone, I will not die
I can't whistand all the hopes I bear
'This my greatest misery

To reach the gates
Confronts all that you've fear to be
As you're fighting yourself
Your soul's defined in the mirror

"I will follow this trail acllaimed and sent to death
It came to me
I'll choose my own path
But did i deserved a chance ?"

A glorious strife under a frozen sky
Facing a storm alone, I will not fail
I can't whistand all the hopes I bear
'This my greatest misery

Walking the way back home
I'll lessen the distance between us
Come stand by my side
One step further through the dark

Coward running away
In fear of something stronger
Lost without himself
Through a final stand

Hopeless is my ascent
And I'm doomed to something darker
Is there still a chance ?

Stands the peak as a guiding light
For the one who'll never be astray


3. THE WANDERER

There is always a path to take
For each dawn of the day
A calm wind unveils the distance still far beyond for me

Will I wander away ?
On the shore once again
Where dreams and tales who're meant to be
Still lie waiting the tide come for them

Wandering alone, may the lighthouse guide my steps
All of this but a canvas of my own world
Wander once again, find a way to write these lines
Just begun the trip across myself

Son of the wilderness
Reached the place, he will call home
A realm wider than the sky
Letting himself be what he's meant to be

Wandering alone, may the lighthouse guide my steps
All of this but a canvas of my own world
Wander once again, find a way to write these lines
Just begun the trip across myself

Wander once again, Reveals a road enlightened
Just begun the trip across myself

Wandering alone, may the lighthouse guide my steps
All of this but a canvas of my own world
Wander once again, find a way to write these lines
Just begun the trip across myself


4. AGAINST THE TIDE

Walking alone on the coast of manking
The sand is shining under the moonlight
The waves lying slowly calling to sleep
Even so I am trying to resist

Years of fictions forged my reality
I found this place hidden in my mind
Guided by the arrow of Minerva
I decided to sink into the sea

Explain to me now why I need to close my eyes
The landscape I'm facing can't be the reality ?

Approaching safely the water calls me
The cold and the light don't scare me
I'm feeling like there's a reason to fall
Deep inside and against the tide

Explain to me now why I need to close my eyes
The landscape I'm facing can't be the reality ?
The world beyond the earth tells the story of life
In a whirlwind my soul is pulled in to the deep

The world beyond the earth tells the story of life
In a whirlwind my soul is pulled in to the deep

Against the tide...
Against the tide...


5. BLOOD FOR MY SPEAR

We're going far over the plains
Over the hills, over the mountains
Enemy legions are walking on our land

Here's my last call
Tonight we'll fall !
I'll fulfill my duty standing proud and free

I'm so weak, so small
Tonight we'll fall !
I've to bid you farewell
Tonight we dine in hell

We're walking through the ashes
Among rubbles, amongst the corpses
They won here
I want some blood for my spear

Here's my last call
Tonight we'll fall !
I'll fulfill my duty standing proud and free
I'm so weak, so small
Tonight we'll fall !
I've to bid you farewell
Tonight we dine in hell (x2)

Here's my last call...
Tonight we'll fall...
