Ravenblood : Beyond the Ghost's Pride

Lyrics


2. King Among Slaves

Today, my mind flies so high
It wants to touch the blue of the sky
And kiss the grey clouds of storm
The stars are my shelter

Beneath the sun, near the horizon line
There is a sign in the ocean side
My master's calling
Lurking to liberate my soul
-It keeps beating on and on-

You, young one
Be the eyes of the night
For the time has come
You must come home
Jealousy of the great
You must be legend among men
Seed of strenght
The book of greatness awaits for your name

It fills my breath
The nature-full smell of my den
Through this desert
It shall guide me to home
Now I have reached
Fighted and fulfilled the objective
Pleased the spirit in the forest within
I have completed my quest

Hear, my master
Light and guide in my soul
Now, discovered the power to which I belong
Teach me the wit of the wise

Hear, my son
Now the trees whisper your name
No more sunsets will be secrets for you
There'll be no moonlight you cannot possess

Breath the sun light
Kiss the winter stars
Feel the wind, taste it's cold
A new world awaits you

You, young one
Be the eyes of the night
While through the mist
And come to me
Jealousy of the great
As the king of the brave you shall prevail
The son of winter you must remain!


3. Ghost's Pride


Inside this empty misbelief
The silence's nigh on the burial ground
How large this hollow feels

To whom you are really bound

As the pipes honour the name
When a whispered last bless dies out
Then let you leave this plane
For the gazer to come down

But now your hands are made
by sorrow, guilt and shame
Leading you in misery
towards its very end

Sow your dreams with desires
Along the plow of odium
For the sins of what's unworthy to come

Fill your mind with the blood
Of delusions, 'til the crow
Cries for redemption to come

Guide your walk towards the
mound where dawn's leaving out
the whisper of Death

Aim your soul to the oak
Since the mistress is now gone
And carve just the name
Of the framer of your loss

And so his heart
Made for heaven
But damned to the night
Was forced to halt, oh

Mother, father,
now your son belongs to grief
Seek my pride in the winds
Far beyond this sea
I now recall , that you someday,
Warned me of my fate
And since the day you left me out
It never...returned


4. The Hissing

Hearken the wise words of God
Feel the fire burning in his winds
Let the rope tie you away from life
For murder has been your ultimate answer

Embrace the redemption
Now falling from the sky
And as for your heaven now burnt...
Made from the ashes
Came from the darkness
for you to drown...Oh!

He waits you down...
For you to drown!


5. Hanging over the River

There once was a light inside the night
You could hear the cry of a damned child
Gazing the stars for a trace of an answer
A trace of a word to stand up and fight

And you could feel his wrath
It knew why he was crying again
You could glance it in his eyes
The fire and the desire of avenge

Oooh, let the lightning
Oooh, be his guide
While searching for the meaning of his life

Now you can see no light inside his heart
His cry was shut by insanity's hand
Even knowing this could be his end
He could not find, yet, a reason to care

And now, this river is your silent witness
While that rope is tied to your neck
And why, besides your own soul,
You still find no reason to regret?

Oh! But in his mind
The nights become much longer!
Oh! Yet he knows he will fall
While in this day he's only one step far from hell

Oooh, let the lightning
Oooh, be my guide
Searching in my dreams for a place to go and die

A whispering voice, a nightmare now swollen
by his fears became alive
And so it shouted and pressed on his back
By the time a pray came to his mind:

Being one with the rain
Being freed from life without a trace of pain

Oooh, let the river
Take my last breath of life
Oooh, and let the rain
Help out my last tear of love
Still searching for the meaning of my life


7. Relief

Each second on gets at your pain
And yet it grew so tinned
Just like that bouldered mountain
Eroded by the morning wind

And even though time mends your wound
Thy mind can't even bear its weight
You only keep your trek to find
Relief in your...own...grave

Your own words hurt
your very soul...
Don't you realize?
What you can't bear is your own
Mind!

Whilst in your bed
You keep thinking you can't take it

And all the things you ever done
Have come to betray you
And all the lies you've once been told
Have come to erase you

And you keep telling to yourself
Your life is not worth it
But let me tell you this, my friend:
You never stood up again
since the first time you
fell!

You fell into dark
yet you never wanted
to see the light never again...

The last time you smiled
Wasn't it worth the pain?
The touch of the rain
in your skin
Wasn't like it gave you
another chance to live?

To live and die
For the very first time
You felt the kiss of the moon in your eyes
In your seek of relief?


8. Pathfinder

Fierce sunlight unveils
Luck has finally come to an end
All the sand of this hourglass
Slips away from my hands

It's time to stand up forth the winds
To break this night eternal
And dare to rip its wings of steel

Come with me
Deem my sin
Words may behove to dust
In aftertime
Just lies

Rise again
Take my hand
You never know
Which way is a deadly end

I have become
the impersonation of
a pure desire
But I'm not your kind

Things tell many stories
That lie beneath your feet
Trees have rotten roots
But now, your dreams are...
...mine

Now you're lost to
the wish of a ghost
A shallow desire
Climbing up the hill
of despair

Now you praise
The whisper of Death
For a lead to salvation
Saviour of the essence

Rise again
Take my hand
Now your way
Is a deadly end

Come with me
Deem my sin
Words may behove to dust
In aftertime
Just lies, empty lies


9. Sin in Vain

"You, servant of the dark lord
It's now your time, before you're gone.
Don't carry on
Confess your sins, redeem your soul"

How do you dare to hold my hand
While your viperine tongue poisons my insides?
Screw away your lies

Do you really believe in what you say?
All your crap is taking me down
Leave me on my own!

"As you please,
take it all alone,
you'll be nothing but dust
in the day after tomorrow
But all your deeds
Forge what you really are
Deep inside, you really fear
Your very shade in the book of time"

What is your intent?
Where was your God, then,
In the time of my need?

Once ago, I felt a need so cold
That it tasted like steel
Like it was meant to rip
My delusions

Now, beyond your truth
I still find my reality
I don't care if it's unfair or not

What had to happen DID happen!
Beyond the choice of God!

"Have no pity,
-It's your desire!-
he has to pay and die"
-You won't silence my truth-
"You'll be burnt at the end of the day"
-You won't set down my mind!-
"You'll be burnt upon the stake"

-The eyes of a young man did fade to grey
As the blood in his veins spread away
Returning to the ocean
Where all his lies...Never startled him...-

"In your way to nowhere
For eternity, burn in hell!
Bring to me your ultimate lie!

Burn in hell, you liar!
Your repent swept away in the void
Burn in hell, feel the fire!
Fed by your sins!"


10. Revenant

You, young one,
In the stars dwells a secret untold
A dream forlorn
In a seek of prevail
You must be legend among them
And off the fire
You, young one,
You shall get what it takes
To go on!
