Dusk & Despair
02:28
|
|||
As I gaze into the darkness of my soul,
I find a broken dream
a dark hole
where Hearts cant feel no more,
where every breath turns into fear
You’re left alone in tears
to find there’s nothing here for you
but this pain, these wounds that don’t seem to heal
I feel like I’m near the end
Cut deep, submit to me, alas, you’ll see who I am
I am your shadow king
Let it seep within, at last, you want to become,
like me, who I am,
before the reckoning ...

Battle of Creation
05:39

Primal scream
primordial sigh
awaken from a dream
forsaken to die
A glimpse of light
opens up these curtains
usurper of the night
I’m prey to the uncertain
confined between space and time
No longer sublime
Led by the urge to survive
alone I must thrive
In new dimensions I stand
a stranger to this land
try not to swallow the pain
break free from these chains
The battle of regenesis,
I’m haunted by my nemesis,
the explosion of the soul
against a merciless black-hole
The Anguish of oblivion,
leaving an absolute dominion
The Alma matter forgot
It's the corruption of god
I fall confused amidst the emptiness in me
and wonder why the warmth of darkness I can’t see?
the air is poisoning now that my soul took shape
this world of suffering I wish I could escape
Primal scream
primordial sigh
awakening from a dream
forsaken to die
The Putrid stench of flesh,
my soul is in disguise
the cold piercing my skin
the light piercing my eyes
There’s no escape
from this bleak world full of lies
become one with the pain
or face your own demise
Blood will be spilled
your eyes will turn to red
In darkness concealed
you'll crawl amongst the dead
why do you strive, when you know you can’t survive?
you pray for death, but still crave to be alive...
Conquer the world, to leave it all behind?
Such senseless fight, it’s the curse of all mankind...
In the fire of oblivion
now lay the remains
and the ashes of a million
souls, war never ends
I won’t surrender to
the pain you put me through
I dare to carry on and gaze
into the night
I won’t surrender to
the pain you put me through
I’ll dare to dream and have the strength
to seize this night
For I am the eternal flame . . .

The Infernal
05:38
|

Dark master
look into my eyes
Dark master
let the serpent rise
Dark master
come forth so all can see
disaster through eternity
Infernal screams from the shadows of a distant past
Such morbid dreams of obscurity so vast
the beasts awaken, from the depths of slumber
we’re all forsaken, he’ll tear the world asunder
dark master
look into my eyes
dark master
let the serpent rise
dark master
come forth so all can see
disaster through eternity
Dark master breed the terror of a thousand ghouls
for I beseech the instincts of a thousand wolves
and with it feed my spirit and my blackened heart
with godlike strength to shred them all apart
my shadow king, dark master of all tribulation
under your wing, I shall become annihilation
follow me, away from the light
forever plunder in the riches of the night
fly with me, we’ll blast the sky like thunder
forever under wretched dreams of vile wonder
Infernal screams of anguish and despair
such morbid dreams of pain that they can’t bare
In dark desires from the bowels of creation
through burning fires and stripped from all salvation
Dark master
look into my eyes
Dark master
let the serpent rise
Dark master
everyone will turn
to darkness so let the fires burn
burn out through this night
my spirit falters, desire is too strong
this thirst for vengeance
i’ve waited for so long
release this demon, become one with the dark
i am the shadow king
this is my demon mark
Dark master
look into my eyes
Dark master
let the serpent rise
Dark master
everyone will turn
to darkness so let the fires burn

When all is Gone
05:53
|
|||
Staring at the ruins that are left behind
I still can feel your shadow lurking deep inside my mind
nothing remaining but this empty sea
your memory still fresh,
keeps slowly burning up the life in me
cannot fast forward
cannot rewind
no way to play nor pause or leave the past behind
Keep pushing onward, or forever stop the pain
I can’t keep just moving on,
when all I want's to dance with you again
live only, to pay for my mistakes
to be forever haunted
by the choices that one makes
This guilt is turning into shame
I take no pride
in this cursed man that I became
When all is gone, when all the candles burn,
the darkness comes when that last page is turned
When all is gone and you don't see the light,
look to the stars, they're still shinning bright
You seem so far away,
come back to me if only for today,
Don’t bury all our thoughts and memories
To see you once again
I try to rise above these broken dreams
But I can’t bury all these thoughts and memories
it is the price to pay ...
When all is gone, when all the candles burn,
the darkness comes when that last page is turned
When all is gone and you don't see the light,
look to the stars, they're still shinning bright
You've gone so far away,
come back to me if only for today,
Don’t bury all our thoughts and memories
To see you once again
I try to rise above these broken dreams
But I can’t bury all our thoughts and memories ...

After the Storm
03:50
|

I dream of starlight
shinning far bright
It seems tonight,
you are free
tonight we are free
from all ...
Ill find my way,
for after the storm,
the breeze will open another door
I’ll live another day,
for after the storm,
comes peace today and forevermore
I’ve see through your eyes
and over your lies
I swallowed the sun for you
I dreamt that one day, you’d be gone
you had me plagued in shame
So deep the damage that was done
But I am half to blame
Me, I'll find a way
for after the storm,
the breeze will open another door
I’ll live another day,
for after the storm,
comes peace today and forevermore
I’ve see through your eyes
and over your lies
I swallowed the sun for you
I’ve seen the starlight,
and the ever mourning winter fall of dreams
the starlight, forever mourning
find yourself in spirit and gaze into the afterlife
through the starlight of dreams
Ill find my way
For after the storm,
the breeze will open another door
I’ll live another day,
for after the storm,
comes bliss today and forevermore

My Last Breath
05:00
|
|||
Beneath the stars, and the ruins of despair
amidst the dark when it seems too much to bare
gaze up to where the wind does chime
stand strong, a new dawn begins to shine
one final breath, a final effort will suffice
to defeat this world, all its evil in disguise
gaze up to where the wind does chime
stand strong no defeat while there's still time
See how pouring from the skies,
all that we've wept for, comes back in through your eyes
Feel how blooming from inside
a force is gathering from all of us who have died
One final breath
It’s the will to carry on
Embrace your fate
our kindred must go on
withstand this pain
and let the fury guide your soul
don’t fall
not now when so close to the end
so close to the end...
Our strength remains we'll fight through it all
Let’s break our chains, this darkness will fall
our dreams never end, we'll conquer the dawn
remember this day when your strength is gone...
