1. ARMOUR OF DUST

Monde en colère, armées en guerre
Dañs le sang et dans la poussière
Seule sur la grève tu marches en rêve
Baignée de larmes, larmes amères
Où est ton père?
Tombé sans haine. Colère et folie

Armour of Dust
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of Dust so strong and so weak

Where is the rose you promised me yesterday?
Where are the knights to kneel before their
princess and pray?
Where the horses
The Kings horses and Kings men pride?
Where are the heroes
To save the little girl from the fire?

O Dad I feel so alone in the night
O I wish I could have you by my side
All that remains of you in my mind
Are the fairy tales we used to read together
before the night

Armour of Dust
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of Dust so strong and so wear

Where is the wand you promised me yesterday?
Where are the fairies
To lean over the cradles and pray?
Where are the butterflies
With their pretty colours in the light?
Where is the dragon
To save the little girl from the mad?

Armour of Dust
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of Dust so strong and so weak

How could you justify
The rapes the killings and the crimes
How could we let the mad
Become the leaders of the flock of lambs

I feel just like a doll in the devil's hands
Surrounded by atrocities and pain
There is no magic anymore since you left
Only fading memories of your tales

Armour of Dust
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of Dust so strong and so weak


2. ARMAGEDDON

Armageddon
Apocalypse upon us

We live and we die
Hoping for salvation
We crawl and we fight
Blood on our hands

But what is the purpose of it all?
What cause are we supposed to defend?

Wealth of the few who are feeding on the blood of your child?
Power of the preachers spreading all their lies?
Money is their only grail their only god

The day the stars fell down
The day the moon turned into blood
Our hope turned into eternal night
Ashes and blood are raining on us now
Too late to beg forgiveness for our crimes

Armageddon

We run and we hide
Frightened by the shadows
We weep and we cry
Shredded by the night

Still bound to our flesh of mortal men
All damned of the Garden of Eden
What sin could justify the disgrace and the divine wrath of God?
What crime was perpetrated by our kind?
What fault is our burden till the end of time?

The day the stars fell down
The day the light changed into dark
Our hope turned into eternal night
Ashes and blood are raining on us now
Too late to beg forgiveness for our crimes

The day the stars will fall down
This day the mountains will cry
Blood rivers will flow from their eyes
And darkness will devour the light
Too late to beg forgiveness for our crimes
But until then don’t let hope vanish in the wind

The day the stars fell down
The day the light changed into dark
Our hope turned into eternal night
We have to face the sentence for our crimes
The Judgment day has come upon our lives

Armageddon
Face the sentence for our crimes
Armageddon
Judgment day has come upon us
Armageddon
Face the prosecutors of Hell
Armageddon
The executioners are none but ourselves


3. FLY AWAY

Anges, dépouillés de vos ailes, condamnés à ramper
Loin des nuages loin des étoiles loind du ciel
Oubliez les promesses de vos dieux infidèles
La liberté n'est quà quelques pensées de vos ailes

Déploeyz les sans peur irréelles en vos cœurs
Elles valent bien mieux que leus promesses
Homme, envolve toi vers le ciel bien plus haut que les statues
Des dieux figés de marbre et les cathédrales de pierre

There's a crossroad right in front of you
And paths that you can't see the end
This time the hour of choice won't be delayed
Too late to fathom mysteries of life and death

Freedom seldom seems to be the easy way
Can't pretend there is not a price to pay
While chaos has arisen plunging all your world into the dark

Where the love we were supposed to be made of
We were doomed by the hand of god
Destined to succumb to His temptations
Punished for trying to take His hand

Forbidden, the questions burning your lips
Forgotten, the evil rising in his name
Enslaved by rhetoric of all his priests
Now it's time to reject all the chains

Just fly away, spread out the wings of your heart
Don't be afraid, that soul of yours was made to fly
Just fly away, and feel the wind in your feathers
Don't be afraid, freedom is just a few thoughts away

Hommes perdus dans la poussière
Condamnés à errer
Sans fin dans l'ignorance
La souffrance et la peine
Oubliez les prières
Les cantiques et l'enfer
La liberté ne se gagne jamais
Dans la haine

Jusquoù te guideront
Tes anges et tes diables?
Délivre-toi enfin des thes chaines
Homme, envolve toi vers le ciel
Bien plus hait que les statues
Des dieux figés de marbre
Et lest cathédrales de pierre

Did you really think it was the truth
They were trying to explain?
Did you really think it was about God
About the creation, about heaven or hell?

Did you think you ever could pretend
You couldn't hear their chants and lullabies?
Echoing in your heart
Their greed for power is their only guide

Gods are only puppets in the hands of men
Dancing to the beat of their war drums
Feeding on your weakness and on your soul
Stirring up the fear of the unknown

Open up the eyes of your mind
Leave the comfort of their lies behind
Free yourself from the leash around your neck
Now it's time for you to break their spell

Just fly away, spread out the wings of your heart
Don't be afraid, that soul of yours was made to fly
Just fly away, and feel the wind in your feathers
Don't be afraid, freedom is just a few thoughts away


4. THE PAGE

I am crying alone in the dark with a book in my hand
But I cannot read the words, I cannot stand the pain
My tears have flown down the ancient pages blurring all the lines
Erasing the memories no matter how good or how sad

Words and lines intertwine distorting time
Opening old scars that I thought were buried in my heart

Words are weapons of the mind
Sharper than kinves
O please stop I am begging you
Please stop tearing my heart apart

O I want to turn the page
And find the words that will heal my soul
I want to hide away
Erasing the wholes story of my life

I am weeping all alone
Curled up on the ground
And I am covering all the writing from your hand
Sotthing my soul
Purifying me as I am diving into dark

I have lost my faith in legends and fairy tales
I have been beaten by hands of ice
I've been burnt by the fire

Words are hurting me tonight
Like a dagger in my heart
O please stop I begging you
Please stop trying to kill me tonight

O I want to turn the page
And find the words that will heal my soul
I want to hide away
Erasing the whole story of my life

On n'efface pas l'écrit
On ne remonte pas pas les temps
Oublie tes regrets
Oublie les larmes versées
Oublie tes remords passés
Il te faut maintenant tourner la page
Et écribe l'avenir

Tour les pages
Saignent les cœurs blessés
Tournent les pages
Grondent les tempêtes

Larmes, cris, rage, défaites
Perus, haine, colère, sang
Lettres, mots, phrases, silences
Plaies, coups, belssures, souffrances

Oublie tes larmes
Oublie les peurs
Tourne la page

O tonight I'll turn the page
And find the words
That will heal my soul
I'll never hide away
I am starting a new chapter of my life

And tomorrow on the page
I will write words to heal my soul
They will never fade
I will stand and win my inner war


5. FOLLOW YOUR HEART

We see the light and then we fall
On this road we were left all alone
With no goal
We were raosed tp follow
Their holy rules

We only desire what we don't need
Prisoners of theses intangible laws
We walk or we die
Left scarred, helpless and blind

It's time to step aside from the road
It's time to decide for ourselves
It's time to explore the world around
And fight our own way out of hell

Oh follow your heart
Don't let yourself be haunted
By your fears
Don't let your wings
Be broken by their lies
Don't let them close your eyes
And reach out to the light

We try to speak but hear no sound
We try to read each other's lipes
But there's no light
We try to understand
The meaning of our lives

We fail to act paralysed by our fear
To make a way
Out of our familiar ground
Afraid of the unknown
Afraid to dive into the dark

It's time to fight procrastination
It's time to take charge of our fate
It's time to finally renew the hope
That was forgotten in our hearts

O follow your heart
Don't let yourself be haunted
By your fears
Don't let your wings
Be broken by their lies
Don't let them close your eyes
And reach out to the light

It's time to find your life a purpose
It's time to break all your chains
It's time to fight the hate of mankind
With all your soul and all your mind


6. ANGEL OF TEARS

This night seems to last forever
The void fills my soul
Where nothing remains
But chaos and pain

My feet are leading me nowhere
I'm lost in this maze
I have no past, no future in sight
Why did they fade away from me

O Angel of Tears
Oh tell me what I am supposed to do
Now my fate is in your hands?
O Angel of Fears
I am just a runaway girl
Will you ever take the pounding pain
That's beating in my heart
And killing my soul
Away?

Wrong skin co9lour, wrong religion
Wrong History, wrong culture
There is no place for me
In your world
There's nowhere I can call my home

O Angel of Tears
Oh tell me what I am supposed to do
Now my fate is in your hands?
O Angel of Fears
I am just a runaway girl
Will you ever take the pounding pain
That's beating in my heart
And killing my soul
Away?

I wander in the dark of the night
I desperately need to survive
For my baby growing inside
i'll give him the love I was denied

O Angel of Tears
Oh tell me what I am supposed to do
Now my fate is in your hands?
O Angel of Fears
I am just a runaway girl
Will you ever take the pounding pain
That's beating in my heart
And killing my soul


7. FREE AS A BIRD

Free yourself from the yoke
From the chains and the tyranny
Of tradition and religion

Running through the temples
Howling 'I don't believe in God'
Climbing into the spires
Ringing the bells
Of all your foolish lies

Laughing at all the signs
So childish before my eyes
Dancing with shackles of the past

We will never give up
Never believe in your lies
Stop thinking they will ever rule my life
Stupid traditions, obscure rules
Hiding the weakness of the fools
I'm not afraid of you, I don't belong to you

Open your ears and your eyes
Can't your hears the wails and cries
Of girls dying beaten at the hands
Of their own fathers
Throw off the chains and the veils
Throw off the yoke of those men
It's time to raise our heads and fight

We will never give up
Never believe in your lies
Stop thinking they will ever rule my life
Stupid traditions, obscure rules
Hiding the weakness of the fools
I'm not afraid of you I don't belong to you
Breaking free, as a bird

And I don't fear your foolish laws
I'll refuse till the end of time
I'm not alone, we are legion
We stand up and fight

We will never give up
Never believe in your lies
Stop thinking they will ever rule my life
Stupid traditions, obscure rules
Hiding the weakness of the fools
I'm not afraid of you I don't belong to you
Breaking free, as a bird

And I don't fear your foolish laws
I'll refuse till the end of time
I'm not alone, we are legion
We stand up and fight


8. THE MISTCHILD

Look at the mistchild
Born in a world he can't understand
Look into his eyes
Behold the wisdom of human kind

Afraid of your smile
Images are flooding his mind
Afraid of his memories
Of chaos, violence and cries

Look at the mistchild
How fragile is his own existence
Look at his face
Despair and misery without a name

Innocence, when did we leave you behind?
I can still see your light
Drift away like a dream
We forgot the very moment we woke up
To a world of utter madness
And lies and tears
In the realm of the heartless
And treacherous kings
In the realm of the self-centered
Masters of greed
In the realm of the vultures
And slayer of dreams

Look at the mistchild
At your own reflection in his eyes
Look at the light
He radiates all around

Afraid of the darkness
And of the shadow he can see behind you
Afraid of the future
He's desperately clinging to you

Innocence, when did we leave you behind?
I can still see your light
Drift away like a dream
We forgot the very moment we woke up
To a world of utter madness
And lies and tears
In the realm of the heartless
And treacherous kings
In the realm of the self-centered
Masters of greed
In the realm of the vultures
And slayer of dreams


9. DUST WE ARE

Memento homo quia
Pulvis es et in pulverem reverteris

When the night is falling down on the souls
Of men fighting for their rights
And there are innocent children enslaved
By the mad
But still remain ludicrous temples and statues
Remnants of ancient folly and pain
And their religions as hard as the stone
In their shrines

But men forgot that even stones
Will turn to sand (in the end)
And men forgot that their beliefs
Will vanish like dust (in the wind)
But still they believe there's a god to listen
To our prayers and our tears

Dust we are, as dust we fall
Slaves to the will of the capricious winds
Duste we are, as dust we fall
Sooner or later we're cast away

When the fools think they detain the truth
And cast anathemas to each other
Waging their wars in the name of the love
They denied

LOok at their crosses and crescents and stars
Childish symbols of faith and of pride
Covering the walls of our homes and our hearts
Deaf and blind

But in the end nothing will remain
Of us nor them (in this earth)
Nature will take it all, the stars
Will follow their path (ignoring us)
Our flesh and our bones, our pride and our plots
Will vanish in the wind

Dust we are, as dust we fall
Slaves to the will of the capricious winds
Duste we are, as dust we fall
Sooner or later we lose the game

Dust we are, as dust we fall
Slaves to the will of the capricious winds
Duste we are, as dust we fall
Sooner or later we'll fly away
