1. UNDER BLACK SKIES

Across the emptiness, the fear itself arising
These ruins have fallen into disrepair
Fire in the sky
Rain of destruction

A spark of wrongful death that led into obliteration
The price of lingering with blinded eyes
Swallow now your cries and pay for their sins
Pay for their sins

Where was the mistake?
We went astray in throats disgorging regrets
Our salvation was laid to waste by the storm
Scattering a big wave of despair

A sparkle down below, an omen of disorder
Painting the surface of this living hell
Deliverance put into question

The point of no return, the embrace of the suffocation
Comes from this nebula of black and red
Choir singing melodies of pain
Melodies of pain

Where was the mistake?
We went astray in throats disgorging regrets
Our salvation was laid to waste by the storm
Scattering a big wave of despair

Now watch me fall

Servants of deceit
Being forgotten by the fallen gods
Master, pull the strings from the vortex
Where this chaos has awakened

Cataclyst, I am falling down in reverse
I can feel the taste of sulphur
A fall of the great light

Where was the mistake?
We went astray in throats disgorging regrets
Our salvation was laid to waste by the storm
Scattering a big wave of despair

We fall again


2. SENSE OF LUST

Embraced by shackles made of silver
A light of a candle as your only friend
The song of the silence lulls you in this night
Your soul begins to salivate

An ebony glow among the shadows
The footsteps resound louder and louder now
A dull creaking sound sends shivers down your spine
Anticipating what's to come

You've made my sickness so alive

You feel it right
You feel it wrong
All is fair in our twisted little game
I make you fly
I make you cry
Doesn't matter the price to pay
You'll always ask for more

Pleading for more!

With blood on your knees, I grip your flushed face
And force you to bite what mutes your gasping voice
I draw with my nails a seal of ownership
And now I proceed to chastise you

Pain! Toy! Now suffocate!
Game! Toy! Pray to my navel!
Pain! Joy! Scourge and beating
Game! Toy! Scream!

You feel it right
You feel it wrong
All is fair in our twisted little game
I make you fly
I make you cry
Doesn't matter the price to pay

You'll always ask for more
The sense of lust
The scent of life


3. ICONIC

I'm walking against the currents, dampening my feet into my thoughts
Twirling lights that lead me to nowhere

I have made you a slave of your blindness and self-ignorance
Faded pictures I yearn as they go away

Painting landscapes non-existent

Concealed in a cage I try to find a way to rifle through my mind
And find the key that will unlock that door

You can't break the latch on a chest from the unknown
Faded pictures I yearn as they go away

Will you help me see?
Will you help me be?
Will you look away or set me free?

When sometimes resound in the wind
The unheard echoes of my cries
I see the light in the end
Coming through the glass and guiding the path to the icon in me

Why does it feel like I'm daydreaming?
Why? the reflection in the mirror is not mine!

Silent root digging deep inside makes me lost in reverie
And this body doesn't feel like home
Fire and ice come from my soul against my will

Faded pictures I yearn as they go away
As I'm remaining withered on my own

Will you help me see?
Will you help me be?
Will you look away or set me free?

When sometimes resound in the wind
The unheard echoes of my cries
I beg the winds of my fate
End this retribution, bring me peace and take me there


4. BOUND BY FIRE

Reign of terror rising under our toes in a forced destiny
Deprived of humanity by the demon who portrays this conflict

No way out but submission
The flesh, the hunt, the wound
Victims of hatred in an unprovoked fight

Throats cry out for one more day
Towards the sky that our blood carries on painting

Pain is pouring down on us like rain, soaking our shaking bones
Composure crumbles away in the pale sockets of their empty eyes

Forfeiting a resolution
No way, no peace, no life
Disguised as honour
We're pushed into the flames

Throats cry out for one more day
Towards the sky that our blood carries on painting red

On this field of skin and bones
My brothers, bound by fire
Cling to life and I see on the other side
Some faces I know from times gone by

And yet we are still forced to fight
Dragged into this hole
Destined to close this circle
A cycle doomed to repeat itself

Throats cry out for one more day
Towards the sky that our blood carries on painting
Words dying in the echo of time
'Cause in the end, in this game
It's either you or me


5. IRON AND DUST

Carrying the burden of my wretched misery
With the resentment of being able to just grit my teeth

I began by getting on my feet
Following the voices of the displaced
Tasting iron and dust under the restless moon
With thunders as a beacon

Sometimes I look back
My memories say goodbye with tears in their eyes
Abandoned to my fate
With no choice but to carry on

The weight of silence suffocating down my throat
A sun of injustice throbbing in my temples
Writing my story with mud on my fingers
Following the compass that guides my growing strong will to survive

And I'm still on my feet
Following the voices of the displaced and the horizon
Is shining brighter now
I can almost feel it

Sometimes I look back
My memories say goodbye with tears in their eyes
Abandoned to my fate
With no choice but to carry on

No matter how many times the ocean tries to wash my skin
No matter how many blows I take for trying to crack your code
My identity remains still dirty like an indelible stain
While you allot me a penance within my blood

And still sometimes I look back
My memories say goodbye with tears in their eyes
Abandoned to my fate
I'm still determined to fight for my life


6. I AM

Like a wave, uncontrollable
I sweep over your strength
Impregnating every fibre with
A grey halo impossible to hide

And in your head you hear the sound of my name
Inside your veins I disperse my venom
Go away
You feel the burn of acid in your insides
Go away
Dissolving all the humanity left in you

I am the gall that rots your being
The knife that rips your guts from within
I am the stench of your revenge
The rancour that exudes from the pores of your skin

From my lips
You'll get no mercy only loyalty to disdain
As I dance among your raving bones
I pull the strings of your sour sanity

And in your head you hear the sound of my name
Inside your veins I disperse my venom
Go away
You feel the burn of acid in your insides
Go away
Dissolving all the humanity left in you

I am the gall that rots your being
The knife that rips your guts from within
I am the stench of your revenge
The rancour that exudes from the pores of your skin

Sad the hours gone with the wind
Caused by the fluttering of loneliness
I agonize behind the glass
My gullet still burns

And in your head you hear the sound of my name
Inside your veins I disperse my venom
Go away
You feel the burn of acid in your insides
Go away
Dissolving all the humanity left in you

I am the gall that rots your being
The knife that rips your guts from within
I am the stench of your revenge
The rancour that exudes from the pores of your skin

It burns like a juggernaut
Unleash your hidden fury

Hear my name
I am hate


7. DELUSION

I saw an angel from heaven and he looked at me
"I think I've seen your face"
And then, when he smiled at me
The devil showed his cards
The delusion of bliss

I can't make it go away inside mysеlf
There's a void that seeks a glimmer of light

Will this end with my dreary soul?
Will your voice make me go astray?

Thrown into the trench like a toxic waste to my end
Is this the real me?
And he kept blurring all the lines that remainеd by my conscious side
With no way out to find

I can't make it go away inside mysеlf
There's a void that seeks a glimmer of light

Will this end with my dreary soul?
Will your voice make me go astray?

Why am I still trapped in this senseless misery?

Will this end with my dreary soul?
Will your voice make me go astray?

Oh my god, now I realised
The thing I hate the most is me


8. DEVOTION

Lost in myself, so small and taciturn
Searching for answers to my fate
Cry of despair that fuels my feebleness
I'm longing for a bosom that will take me in

Don't hesitate and come, my dear child

Join the family, shelter under my wing
I'll lead you on the true path
All are welcome in my earthly paradise
Where God is not in the sky

I believed in everything you said
All of your wonders, vows and miracles made of glass
To find your reward
You must entrust your soul to me

Join the family, shelter under my wing
I'll lead you on the true path
All are welcome in my earthly paradise
Where God is not in the sky

Trust in me
Follow me
Trust in me
Drink with me

I gave you everything I had to build your false promised land
Now you want my eternal sleep for a dream that was not mine
Not mine

Join the family, shelter under my wing
I'll lead you on the true path
All are welcome in my earthly paradise
Where God is not in the sky
Drink with me

Join the family, shelter under my wing
I'll lead you on the true path
All are welcome in my earthly paradise
Where God is not in the sky
Drink with me

In the labyrinth of your lies
There are no gates to escape
I surrender to thy will
End it all and drag me away

Down to your hell
But you must know
The truth will set us free


9. NOWHERE

I saw at how splendors are circumscribed
Ignorants only lose their brains

Why am I here? Not alone
Everything is just a delusion
We pretend to be so blind despite the evidence

Nowhere on the way of heartache and pain
Nowhere, the way of anger and the price it paid

I lost your confidence
I can't see the road, I am walking on
But there’s something I know that your eyes relay
Would you ever say?

My mind with its sanguine voice in overload
Makes my heart feel like gone insane

Away from here, I can hear
Such a scream that it feels like
This will command the day of a new dark age

Nowhere
Nowhere to go, nowhere to die
Nowhere
Nobody's gonna hurt no one tonight

I lost your confidence
I can't see the road, I am walking on
But there’s something I know that your eyes relay
Would you ever say?

In shadows of no return
I am lost in time through the void of nowhere

I lost your confidence
I can't see the road, I am walking on
But there's something I know that your eyes relay
Would you ever say?


10. LAKE OF AFTERLIFE

Losing a race against the clock
As I blindly search for my goal in the dark
I try to grope the walls in me
My heart is beginning to cloister and I am the only key

I can't see the bright light from here, someone guide me there
I'll follow the fragrance that will take me to the lake

An outside force that comes in waves
So heavy that they push me to the ground
They don't let wings grow on my back
I see thunder flashing, I feel the ground rumbling
Why don't they understand?

I can't see the bright light from hеre, someone guidе me there
I'll follow the fragrancet that will take me to the lake

I've finally broken my chains that shackled me to this prison
I see the ground beneath my feet recede
I am free

I can't see the bright light from hеre, someone guidе me there
I'll follow the fragrancet that will take me to the lake
Now I have found the way that frees my soul from this cage
No matter what comes next, I go fearless to the lake of afterlife
