1. AURORA

(Instrumental)


2. AD INFINITUM

Born to this nightmare at the dawn of my death
Tainted blood painting the pages of my life
Drifted away from myself, from the core
Drowned in lies, lost to the blind man’s illusion

Watching skies falling down
Reaping all that we’ve sown
Chaining ourselves to the ground

Archers take mark, shoot through the dark
What lies beyond celestial spark
Arrow, soar on, forevermore
Away from this world
To find our new horizon

Maze to the temple of greed, torn apart from the storm
Chaos of clashing perceptions
With keys in hand, we remain locked away
Compass lost, we follow the blind man’s illusion

Watching skies falling down
Reaping all that we’ve sown
Chaining ourselves to the ground

Archers take mark, shoot through the dark
What lies beyond celestial spark
Arrow, soar on, forevermore
Away from this world
To find our new horizon

As I stood on the edge, my chains are gone
I spilled blood for them
And now they’ve come back, open your wings
Come fly with me forevermore

Archers take mark, shoot through the dark
What lies beyond celestial spark
Arrow, soar on, forevermore
Away from this world
To find our new horizon


3. BEAST OF OBLIVION

(If you still hear my voice, Awake, Awake... )

Ignorance faithfully
Serves the Gods, ones who hunt the innocent
Darkest poetry of lies has poisoned human need to know
Understand secrets in the Heart of Nebula
Newborn stars and the cradle of our existence

Here we stand at the world’s great divide
As blood pours from our blind broken eyes
Beast is circling its prey with open mouth
Bringing eternal chains of abyss

As Serapeum burned we were forced into oblivion
All that’s left, memories of old
But once we get House of Wisdom found
Al-Hakam restored, we’ll cut the heads
of Superstitious Gods

Darkest poetry of lies has poisoned human need to know
Understand secrets in the Heart of Nebula
Newborn stars and the cradle of our existence

On my knees I pray in Church of Death
Wishing you to fall sooner than me
More and more we strike with the cuts running deep
Beast has tasted the fear of its prey

And Alexandria fell, and we were lost inside the
Maze of Hate, and we burned in fires of
Oblivion, and we rise from the
Well of ash, and within our grasp lay the
Secrets of our beginnings

Darkest poetry of lies has poisoned human need to know
Understand secrets in the Heart of Nebula
Newborn stars and the cradle of our existence

Netherworld chaining minds to the false realities
Intellect slayed by the empires of the prophecies

We fall into the pit, blaming each other
As lords of lies build walls of grand deception

Ignorance faithfully
Serves the Gods, ones who hunt the innocent
Darkest poetry of lies has poisoned human need to know
Understand secrets in the Heart of Nebula
Newborn stars and the cradle of our existence

(the black sun, Oblivion veils truth for generations
Far-reaching, the dogma, sacrifices humana)
Waters are rising, drowning our future
Drain children’s blood, bathe in indifference of Gods
(drain my blood, Altar of Oblivion)


4. PALE BLUE

Visions in my sleepless night took me to the moonlit sky
I stood in awe before the greatest show
And took a step away from what I have ever known

Spark of life, creatures of the sun
Dead stars, new born nebula
Images of unseen plays
Distant lights and silhouettes

In the eyes of the child trapped in time
He is one without fear of the darkness unknown

As I gazed far away and dreamed of worlds I could reach
I heard my mother’s sweet song
Felt warmth of the sun
And my crib – fields of grass
My childhood tree-house and memories
Are my only home on this island of Pale Blue

Starchaser, lost sailor of thousand fates
Dreamer, the seeker of Eternity
Turn your eyes, see me in chains of my fear
Broken, abandoned, I lay in my cage
Free me to fly, be born again as
Child of Innocence, keeper of our tales
Let me be love that builds our new home

As I gazed far away and dreamed of worlds I could reach
I heard my mother’s sweet song
Felt warmth of the sun
And my crib – fields of grass
My childhood tree-house and memories
Are my only home on this island of Pale Blue


5. ARCANE SHORES (COMPASS TO LIGHT)

Out of reach with my own self
Piece by piece, I’m falling down
Out of this world of pain
Search for the islands of my fantasy

Where we are one ever in love’s embrace
As time and life echo our call for adventure

Dance in the shadow of everlasting silence
Pulsing through the song
Arcane shores are waiting for us across blue waters
Under the moon, under the sun
We’ve found our compass to light

Come with me to this dream
Walk the grass, mountains, and rainy forests

We alone stand in Elysium
Horizon calling for our next adventure

Dance in the shadow of everlasting silence
Pulsing through the song
Arcane shores are waiting for us across blue waters
Under the moon, under the sun
We’ve found the compass to light

Search her love to find your ground
A flower's sun - eternal life
Alive once more, tales are true
But in the end the poet's blood
Paints picture of ever-weeping heart

Dance in the shadow of everlasting silence
Pulsing through the song
Arcane shores are waiting for us across blue waters
Under the moon, under the sun
We’ve found the compass to light


6. CRESTFALLEN

I'm used to silence, unheard notes that draw the scenery
O, my heart's desire to be someday
Someone who can be loved again
Come fate, come my Crestfallen

Laughter and joy of the children
Kindest of men dying on a cold winter night
Happy prince that lives in memory
O, siren song O, so beautiful
Cast-out soul travelling the world to find the way
Back to his heart, two graves forever in peace

The worlds of a dead man stir my
Hollow life with emotion
O, you dreamer in prison, you dreamer on trial
Someday, somewhere, we'll meet and we will sing
Our song, my Crestfallen

Laughter and joy of the children
Kindest of men dying on a cold winter night
Happy prince that lives in memory
O, siren song O, so beautiful
Cast-out soul travelling the world to find the way
Back to his heart, two graves forever in peace

Come, rest forever more with me
For your heart, for your love, for
Crestfallen Soul


7. STARBREATHE

The walls are falling down, the truth comes pouring in
We did not need these walls, knowledge is not a sin
Begin to comprehend, the lies come crashing down
The stardust will be found inside our memories
The Gods have proven false, conspiracy will fall
Into the depth of our mutated history

Star-stuff, breathing into our soul

Imagination fills my eyes as I look into the sky above
Stardust breathes into the void, the spark of creation
Let us go forward and embrace our divine rebirth

Star-stuff raising up our world
Leading us into our divine creation and death
Ignorance obscures our roots
The cosmos, fading away, it's time to return to the stars

Stars, breathe your fires into me
Break these chains, set us free
Equations, light the way, help us see

Peer through the telescope and watch the doctrine fall
The stardust ignites my desire to transcend these lies
Follow me, all of you creatures of chance
To the innermost fires of our creation
We have come too far to return to ignorance
The only way is to burn down these paranoid Gods

The walls are falling down, the truth comes pouring in
We did not need these walls, knowledge is not a sin
Begin to comprehend, the lies come crashing down
The stardust will be found inside our memories
The Gods have proven false, conspiracy will fall
Into the depth of our mutated history

Star-stuff, breathing into our soul

Leading us back to our home
Where these fires will burn forevermore
Take these keys, unlock the door to our paradise
Let these lies burn down to the depths of Hell


8. VOYAGE TO THE WORLD'S END

Paint my memory where we lay in haven of time
Play music of creek, sounds of wild clashing winds
With new life, awake from delirium
Spread your wings, come fly away with me

Now you see who we are, the Children of Fantasy
Seekers of thousand tales, sailing to the edge of the world
Come chase clouds in the sky, unleash your heart's desire
Set high all the colours of hope, voyage to the world's end

Night is telling us stories of all that has been before
Eyes wide open in wonder, stargazing in awe
And our love will take us to the path
Where we'll find the great blue gates of dreams

Now you see who we are, the Children of Fantasy
Seekers of thousand tales, sailing to the edge of the world
Come chase clouds in the sky, unleash your heart's desire
Set high all the colours of hope, voyage to the world's end

All I wish is to stay inside this dream never to wake
Prisoner of reality, soon I'll be gone
I'll disappear into nothingness
Nights spent in midwinter lake, drowning inside
Frozen from hate, remembering the sun
But She wasn't there to warm my heart
Another delusion of life
When the pendulum fell I wasn't there, I was already dead
And music has faded away
O, loneliness, embrace my pain

Here on these shores we used to dream and bathe in
Wilderness of our love and beauty of our innocence
In immortal songs, forever young and free

Come with me to story's end, see me in my world's ruins
Fallen in the war with my own self

Stars shine through window upon my broken soul
And once again they spread my wings as we return to
Our dream

Now you see who we are, the Children of Fantasy
Seekers of thousand tales, sailing to the edge of the world
Come chase clouds in the sky, unleash your heart's desire
Set high all the colours of hope, voyage to the world's end

'Till final days we will search for the new edge of the world


9. LAST CURTAINS FALL

The final gaze into the unknown
Mystic worlds I can now see
Final touch of snowflake fall
Sight of winter morning frost
Takes my breath and hope away

Will you show infinity, O, stars above
Embrace your creation

Left in silence, death of treasure-heart
Moonlight kingdom burns as our last curtains fall
Time for innocent souls to fly far away into the
Gates of Nebula - there won't be end to our fantasy

Don't mourn my memory
O, stranger you still have a long road ahead
Time will pass and leaves will fall
From the tree of life and death
Blood will rest beneath the snow

Left in silence, death of treasure-heart
Moonlight kingdom burns as our last curtains fall
Time for innocent souls to fly far away into the
Gates of Nebula - there won't be end to our fantasy

Imprisoned by our own ignorance
Damned or innocent
Holding stone, drowning in sea of dark

Change must come to this misery,
I must break these chains
Free my mind, and ascend to the Sun

Left in silence, death of treasure-heart
Moonlight kingdom burns as our last curtains fall
Time for innocent souls to fly far away into the
Gates of Nebula - there won't be end to our fantasy

River of endless dreams
Flows in reality, of our final fate

And in facing the eternal darkness of oblivion
I am victorious, I am free
At last...
