1. AGAINST THE WORLD

Hear the last words of damned
Screams of the lost
Howling of souls
The distant light of the day
Fading away
The skies turning grey
I bring starvation and war
This is my time
This is my prime
Burn down and forget
What's left behind
In my heart and my mind
Wastelands are waiting for me
Painting in blood my destiny
Blessed by the rays of the sun
I am the one against the world

When all the stars are asleep
I wander the realms
Nightmares and dreams
Dancing with the clouds
Over the hills
Mountains and streams
I rule the powers divine
Turning the page
Of the glorious age
I am the rose on a shield
Gathering dew
In the emerald fields
I am the sentinel
Riding the serpents
Blowing the horns
I am the wind of the land
With sword in my hand
Against the world

No hero can destroy
What remains in the memories old
No army can devastate
What's engraved on the canvas of fate
Live for what's been foretold
The only one
Against the world


2. IN THE CRADLE OF STORMS

I am the wanderer
Resound resonance
King of fools, renegade
Thriving solemn, survived
Just every word,
Beggars plague, suffering
Open guts to raindrops
Measuring out hollow ways
In the black of the world
Telling all my stories old
Shining like an endless starfall

The cradle of storms
The cradle of storms
The cradle of storms
Still calling

Lies of the past
The dust of today
I rise from the void
Back to the world
Time passing by
Turning so fast
The wheels of the earth
On my way

On the couch of thorns
I was born
In the cradle of storms
In the cradle of storms

Lead the way
My ride
When the wheels of the earth
Collide
Veil of the stars
Falls off the skies
And the cradle of storms
Arise


3. TORN BETWEEN THE WORLDS

Close to the edge of the imminent dawn
Armies march in the valley below
Rattling shields, glittering spears
Nothing to loose, nothing to fear
Over the cliffs so sad and forlorn
Vultures singing their festival song
For those who fears the fight
Failed are all hopes to live through the night

Arrows away, obscure the stars
Charge before the sun arise
No more time for silly words
Everyone's ready to conquer the world
Thunder trumpets are calling for me
My ascend to insanity
The dead and the wounded heap up on the ground
The strike of the chosen, the best of their kind

Here 'till the rise of the dawn
With my sword and my spear I burn
The clouds gathering fast
Grinding their lines
Right in the dust
Resound
The groans of deprived
Falling back as they try to survive
Rise my chariot, wheels of flame
From the ashes of fury and bane

Hacks on my shield, piercing pain
On the bright side never again
Falling crows - harbingers of war
Curse the forgiven, hunting for more
There is nothing left for me
In these lands of obscurity
I don't remember how to forget
Cities and countries frozen and dead

Far away they'll hear our cry
Mighty days of glory divine
Tomorrow no one will stand
For the new day - new road ahead
Worlds will shatter, empires will fall
Harvest of souls devouring us all
Bound to oblivion, free to reborn
Bury the fallen and never return

I'm torn between the worlds
In this bloody dancing of swords
With eyes and mouth ablaze
Disappear in time and space
Dissolved in the universe
My eternal blessing and curse
Reborn in the cradle of storms,
In the ancient legends and songs


4. THE TORCH OF THE BLIND

Among the ruins of the past
I am the first. I am the last
Who's laying on the bones of those
Who've found their rest in ancient dust
They brought themselves into this land
Unknown pleasures, burning sand
The smiling moon was deaf and blind
To all the cries that filled the night
They all have paid the cost of crime
And touched the easy flow of time
Forgotten faces, voices, lives
All disappeared in decline
The sand was red and hot from blood
And full of bodies torn apart
They whispered prayers to the skies
And died with widely open eyes

Rust is their armor
Sleep is their sheild
From the darkest of days
On the old balttlefield
Cold is the desert and long is the night
Spreading my shadow
Lighting the torch of the blind

Now only silence rules the place
Still hiding secrets of distress
Nobody's waiting them returned
Noone to weep for or to praise
They've faced what they were looking for
Destruction, loneliness and war
And all their hopes are in my hands
But they don't need them anymore

Lost in oblivion
Piling up bones
In the eye of the storm
Ashes and stones
Nowhere to go nothing to find
Spreading my shadow
Lighting the torch of the blind

Among the ruins of the past
I am the first. I am the last
Who's laying on the bones of those
Who've found their peace in ancient dust
I'm whispering prayers to myself
And singing silent song of death.


5. THEY FOLLOW THE SUN

Singing their songs
Of relentless delight
They've never belonged
To the realm of the light
War cries in the air
Still heard from afar
But nobody's there
All vanished they are
The eyes of the dead
Glimmering slow
Bathing in blood
That covers the snow
In the dawn indistinct
New day's just begun
Like a desolate wind
They follow the sun

They remember the days
With banners raised high
Enlightened their path
In the blistering sky
Now their banners lay torn
Gathering dust
For those who were born
To cherish the past
No rapturous dreams
No whispering fear
In the bowels of hell
Nothing is real
Already extinct
Forgotten undone
Like a desolate wind
They follow the sun

The battle is over
Oblivion calls
Opens its gates
Hungry for souls
And the great wheels of time
Rolling forward again
They're marching in line
To suffer the pain
Escape never ends
Again on the run
Like a desolate wind
They follow the sun
Already extinct
Forgotten undone
Like a desolate wind
They follow the sun


6. THE PLACE THAT DOESN'T EXIST

Follow me
To the frozen lands of my own
Take my hand and join the unknown
Feel the breath
Of the winds so fierce and cold
Farewell to my moribund world
Follow me
To the realm you've never belonged
Never belonged
Fantasy
Disappears in vain
In a thousand oceans of pain

Agony...
In my lifeless desert of loss
Fallen dead-wood, ashes and moss
Shattered dreams
Broken hopes, abandoned desires
Behold my eternal empire
Memories...
Deranged in silence they die
Fall apart in the blink of an eye
Thrones of dust
Waiting for their regents to call
Seen them all, buried them all

Follow me
To the place that doesn't exist
Straight to hell, don't try to resist
Follow me
And never return
From the frozen lands of my own
