1. EXODUS OF SOUL

Valhalla awaits the glorious dead.
Dragon and damselflies ferrying souls to the afterlife
Swarms of death blot out the sun
Dark clouds in blackening skies
These faeries of Charon's flock guiding the spirits to eternal rest
They know the way through the fog
A beacon of light in the dark.
Valhalla awaits the dead
Exodus of souls
Tartarus welcomes the damned.
Exodus of souls
The dying cling to life like driftwood in the sea
The living
All begging for death as far as the eye can see.
Cold embrace... leaving... this place.
Death... welcomes the flock.


2. THE INVISIBLE FOE

As my mind drifts to thoughts of home
A layer of frost clings to my cloak
No comfort found in boreas' touch
Less life to live with every word spoken.
Clenching my teeth I look to the sky the tepid sun chocked with clouds of black.
Above the ice... the horizon burns.
Faint voices of the soon to be dead obscured by the din of war.
A chorus devoid of melody... with death decomposing the score.
Vigor fades and with fatigue... comes the reaper.
(To gorge on the souls of the lost).
Pestilence breeds in stagnation.
Idle minds damn each other with plots.
Our numbers dwindle with every dawn
Supplies have beendepleted.
Deadly weapons never drawn still we are defeated.
Alone we fight disease in the cold trenches like graves carved in the snow.
No songs to sing of the brave and rge blod waging a war on invisible foes.
Marched for days with dreams of honor... a tale of valor and glory.
Yet with my death comes no glorious end... I never saw my enemy.


3. FROM ORANGE TO GREY


The quiet breath of my passion is chocking on my sins
You are the memory that keeps my eyes from closing
Many have died by my hands.
Lives taken in the name of the gods.
Can I wash the blood from my skin ?
So that I may touch your face again.
My misery may consume me
I stand beneath a setting sun
Can a man like me find salvation ?
After all the wretched deeds I've done.
In a lifetime of war I've standing on the shore.
Your hair blowing in the breeze
Your image skrank in the distance
Nothing left but open seas.
The part of me that loves... is slowly eroding away.
Once a year my stone heart beats.
In remembrance of that day,
My candle of life burns from both ends
Only a fool would believe I deserve to see the day
Yet as long as hope remains.
My love for you will not fade.
Like sunsets... from orange to grey...
