1. A DESOLATE KINGDOM

Through the storm I arise
Led by high moons so bright that they burn the skies
Behold, this barren and cold kingdom
Rule my empire that goes higher and higher

Now I must see
The fortress deep inside of me
From eternity

On an on as I chase the moon
To a blackened dark room
Cursed with fear and tombs
Am I alone, I should have known to have lost

Now I must see
The fortress deep inside of me
From eternity

Now I must see
The fortress deep inside of me
From eternity

Now I must see
The fortress deep inside of me
From eternity

Now I must see
The fortress deep inside of me


2. DISSIDENT PRIESTS

Bottom line, I'm at my breaking point
No tomorrow, live forever

Enter through the shadows
You're worthless to me

Promised life, brittle sorrow
No tomorrow, live forever

Enter through the shadows, you're worthless to me
Life it doesn't matter, leads us to insanity

Through the storm I awake, to an island
Through the mangroves I feel sorrow, miles and miles away from home
I hear cries so cruelly
Time is standing still by your hands

You've got me were I want
Forever never seems too far away
Time, time is all I have
The end could be forever and a day

Enter through the shadows
You're worthless to me

Life it doesn't matter
Leads us to insanity
Mind left to shatter
Could this be my destiny


3. ETERNAL MEMORIES

(Instrumental)


4. SHROUD

Death on my back and the machines on their side
I must run forever
Arise my saviours; broken, burned and scared
You can’t force the end with those hands

Bleed across these wastelands
For the once-torn wretched lords
Your life’s now ours
Human race and time is set to standing still

Maker’s creation – On we stand
This countless era has taken over, control the never…

As he lay there bleeding with the wounds and cuts still fresh
I call upon your lords
Life in your hands; pressured, cursed, tortured
There is nothing that they won’t spend

Bleed across these wastelands
For the once-torn wretched lords
Your life’s now ours
Human race and time is set to standing still

Maker’s creation – On we stand
This countless era has taken over, control the never…
Never surrender
I ran to the end
To the dreams inside my head

Lies, misfortune and cries
Your life is worth much more than mine to us all in the end
Your life, your worthless life
Silent memories can’t resurrect you from my curse

Maker’s creation – On we stand
This countless era has taken over, control the never…
Never surrender
I ran to the end
To the dreams inside my head


5. THE COLOURLESS SUNRISE

Was it just a dream
Or is this not as it seems
Faded image comes to life
Awaken misfortune at my...

Hide away, fly away with me
A world of wonder lets proceed
A journey to the never

Life's too short to run away from all your fears
I've left this world behind
So now I have to go
No time to say goodbye

My time has come
No pages left to turn
Watching and waiting forever unbound
As the darkness reigns and the colors fade into the sun

Turn around my little child
Upon this world we see what never should have ever begun
Fly away
(To the sky)
Kill this world with wrath and lies

Souls of fire
Seething hate
Here is my last desire
From these dreams I watch the skies erase

Hide away, fly away with me
Arrive upon these broken shores
I'll take you to the never

Life's too short to run away from all your fears
I've left this world behind
So now I have to go
No time to say goodbye

My time has come
No pages left to turn
Watching and waiting forever unbound
As we watch and wait as the colors fade into the sun
My journey has begun

The falsehood shows itself
(The falsehood shows itself)
The truth becomes clear
(The truth becomes clear)
Behold the web of lies
Presented before my eyes

Never more will I curse the skies watching over me
Can you see it in their eyes, in the sunrise
The tide of life has passed us by
Suddenly I'm at a crossroads to fight or join them
In the realms of freedom where it all began

Rise again, feel no fear
The ash remains the same despite the truth which shall appear
Silently he cries with visions in his eyes
This is the colourless sunrise


6. VISIONS

My life behind me, the path's now clear
I have become my own worst enemy
With doubt and fear inside, these thoughts never go
Deep regret is all I have to show

No one knows what I see...

A step too far in the wrong direction
Obsession is addiction, one that rules my world

My fate alone upon this tainted throne
She speaks so softly of things we could have known
Another sunset closes in and I'm left to hide my shame
These visions are all that remain

No one knows what I see...

A step too far in the wrong direction
Obsession is addiction, one that rules my world
One that rules my world


7. THE GREAT AWAKENING

Revenge is a prophecy that will curse you all to hell
Summon vengeance and wrath from the stories left to tell
I must walk to the other side, a side of dreams
The fear and lies born within the pillars of serene

The gods have summoned me
As they watch from the skies above me

Come with me and relive the prophecy
The ashes fall, the ashes rise into the night
Blind my sight as we walk into the light
The ashes fall, the ashes rise into the night

Feel the dark from within my soul
Rebirth, I remain
The fear and rage
From all those who I've betrayed

The gods have summoned me
As they watch from the skies above me

Come with me and relive the prophecy
The ashes fall, the ashes rise into the night
Blind my sight as we walk into the light
The ashes fall, the ashes rise into the night

My journey ends as it began many years ago
I'm all alone... now I'm left to watch the sun
A solitude for twisted minds
A solace for broken lives
Lay down my child, for your time has now come
What was once is now undone

Left in the cold and dark of day
A distant moon ago
Wandering lonely like a stray
In this place I do not know

The rings align as the cursed is lifted
The gods have now become mine
Become mine
This is my time
Behold you mortals the shining from the sky

Come with me and relive the prophecy
The ashes fall, the ashes rise into the night
Blind my sight as we walk into the light
The ashes fall, the ashes rise into the night


8. SHUTTER ASYLUM

I arrive to an island
It's miserable and bleak
As the ferry sets off
Escape's no option
Stay longer you see

Inmates they're cursed and strange
Their woeful looks still linger
Have I gone insane

I'm now scared
The world cries as I watch the sunrise in my mind

Awake to a forest
The forest wept with souls
My wife betrayed me
My infants so dear to me
Dreams are now untold

She pledged, to believe
To refrain from all fears
As I wondered in my tears

Shutter... Weaves are woven
To the place were we are now
The game...

Shutter... Weaves are woven
To the place were we are now the game
You know we set you up
Forever gone... On the island
In this place where we are now


9. HUNTING POSEIDON

Memories of a faded ruler curse my thoughts within
Don't think I can go on much longer
Must find the key to my innocence
Beauty lines these shores
The reign over these lords comes forth

Two plans in mind, one to endure
Throw down the gauntlet
And show me yours
And show me

Poseidon's wrath is calling me
To satisfy my inner wounds
The legions beckon far and wide
Intercepted doom, breed, lust and fight
Breed, lust and...

Lost within my minds a gonna, I find it hard to breath
The end is coming though I'm much stronger
Death to Poseidon, you'll rule no longer
Answers fall upon this life
They happen to fall in line with the mystic tide

I wait to watch begin the chase
He preaches words of hope and hate

Poseidon's wrath is calling me
To satisfy my inner wounds
The legions beckon far and wide
Intercepted doom, breed, lust and fight

From depths of the ocean Poseidon rises
Revealing power and majesty
In a statement of eternal greatness

As I lie upon these shores the ocean swells within me
His eyes scream fortune and fate and a darkened destiny
Behold the sacred moon
This guiding light of night
My tale must end tonight
In a final sacrifice

I stand before him as I wait
Blessed by all the pain of the ages
The scene rewrites itself again
Again
And the turns to me and says...
'Every question, everything's arranged'

In my hands I hold the head of Poseidon's soul and breath
Nothing will ever be the same
What's done is done, my quest has begun
As I stare towards the sun my journey has just begun

Poseidon's has succumbed to me
To satisfy my inner wounds
The legions beckon far and wide
Intercept my fate
My fate
Now the gods have all to fear
As I travel to the sun beyond this sphere
