lyrics

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 . . .
