Unbound Souls
04:15
|
|||
We're standing strong,
as we fight off this evil
We will not let it win
The darkness calls
My soul keeps feeling colder
We must not let it in
Fighting on, I rise above this evil
swords are drawn and we shall prevail
The demons rise
and summon up the evil
The sky begins to turn
The sun is red
and clouds begin to darken
The ground begins to burn
Fighting on, I rise above this evil
swords are drawn and we shall prevail
Lightning crashes down, the ground begins to rumble
Black smoke rising as this world begins to crumble
The battles won
The light destroys the dark, but
the war will never end
We'll carry on
Preparing for the battle
for evil will ascend
Fighting on, I rise above this evil
swords are drawn and we shall prevail
Lightning crashes down, the ground begins to rumble
Black smoke rising as this world begins to crumble
Bodies laying over the bloodstained ground
The unbound souls are wandering around
[Solo: Estrada]
[Solo: Taft]

Wandering around

Misbegotten Dream
06:01
|
|||
You wake me from my dreary thoughts
This ancient throne holds no allure
I renounce it all
Dark tomes, accursed scrolls, decadent savagery
A fallen people, lost and heartless Long gone, blissful days fall prey to cousin's rage
This crumbling kingdom is our cage
In your heart, my home
I won't let you go
You are the fire
My soul will burn
You are the star that guides the way, on a moonless night
You were the only solace I knew
You were my haven, shadow crowned, misbegotten dream
Cold, restlessly I walk these halls
The sword still haunts my waking thoughts
As it howls for souls
Blood tide upon the waves, my legacy unfolds
A Dreaming City, burned and broken
Spellbound, demon-faced, a forsaken prince of ghouls
Forlorn, forgotten, in despair
You are gone away
Cruelest price I've paid
You are the sea-breeze
Dream uncompared
I long to fall into your arms, safe within your light
Your stolen soul now
Lost evermore
Love stricken down, forever bound, upon my thirsty blade
[Solo: Taft]
[Solo: Estrada]

I long to fall into your arms, safe within your light
Your stolen soul now
Lost evermore
Love stricken down, forever bound, upon my thirsty blade

Puppeteer's Bane
04:58
|
|||
Torn from the path I had chosen
Cast adrift on the wind
Destiny recast, my life
Brought low, alone I lay bleeding
Pawn of chance, a god's demands
Reborn and yet hollow
Memories in Shadow
a bargain struck to pay
The toll of hounds shall speed the way
Cut down all the ones who betray
I shall seek a new day
Dreams of old shall all fade away
Empire's slave no more, now I know how it must be
No longer their tool, hero or fool
Puppeteer's bane
Cut out the disease, revenge shall be my vow
Lost on this plain I now wander
Blood of friends on my hands
Behind her eyes, a shining light
I know, I cannot believe it
Push and Pull, how cruel the hand
Of cards that was dealt us
Memories in Shadow
The creak of ancient chains
Through Darkness's Warren lies escape
Cut free from the bonds of fate
I shall forge a new way
Empire's slave no more, now I know how it must be
No longer their tool, hero or fool
Puppeteer's bane
Cut out the disease, revenge shall be my vow
[Solo: Krais]
Cut free from the bonds of fate
I shall forge a new way
Dreams of old shall all fade away
Empire's slave no more, now I know how it must be
No longer their tool, hero or fool
Puppeteer's bane
Cut out the disease, revenge shall be my vow

Fire and Brimstone
04:47
|
|||
Fire and brimstone at the gates of hell
Demons arise from the place where they dwell
Seen through the gates all the sinners that burn
Suffering on crosses for Satan's return
Sorcerers cast spells
Black fire from the depths of hell
Darkness shadows the land
All take a stand
We fight to be free from all the unholy
Must keep fighting to ward off the beasts
Rising from Hell as were warned by the priests
Few men can contain their final farewell
Fire and brimstone at the gates of hell
Sorcerers cast spells
Black fire from the depths of hell
Darkness shadows the land
All take a stand
We fight to be free from all the unholy
[Solo: Estrada]
[Solo: Taft]
Darkness shadows the land
All take a stand
We fight to be free from all the unholy
Darkness shadows the land
All take a stand
We fight to be free from all the unholy

Imagination
05:27
|
|||
Closing my eyes so I see
In darkness I truly feel free again, oh so free
Imaginations running wild
Dreaming so freely like the days I was just a child
I open my eyes and see
what is there in front of me
A magnificant beast before me
I approach the beast so coutiosly
walking forth so slowly
The beast stands up on its feet
Puts me on its back, I feel my heartbeat
Its wings sprawl out as we sore
Flying so high up in the sky
A journey beyond this world
We are free to imagine
[Solo: Estrada]
You just have to close your eyes
To imagine the world in the skies
A world full of surprise
The magic in this world we live
is filled with wonder and fantasy to give
Its wings sprawl out as we soar
Flying so high up in the sky
A journey beyond this world
we are free to imagine
Visions of cities in clouds
and dragons to protect the land
can put a sparkle in your eyes
with a little imagination

Journey's End
05:21
|
|||
Scorned, away from home
My chalice crumbling within my hands
It defines my sin
Their bells, they chime
A cursed song reveals
My only crime
Was not to die
Within their walls, Within their rights
My ancestors cry for me
From the other side
The sunlight fades
I’m overcome by shades
If only I could make it out of this cage
Steel, constricts my life
And I can hear the pipes
Oh why, do I feel asunder
I just want to fly up high
Lady life confines
My view to the other side
Pull the veil back, my friend
And I’ll stare until the end
A void stares back at me
A pit filled with misery
But shining above I see
A city of destiny
Which will it be?
Soon, they’ll come to take what’s mine
A reaper in man’s disguise
The fallen sing to me from the other side
They sing of loss, they sing of hope
They’ll sing of my demise, taut at the rope
At first light of day
They’ll drag me away
If only I could live for just a few more days
The moonlight fades, the sunshine invades
Bringing with it Death’s relentless gaze
Threads, around my neck
This dread, I can’t accept
Ahead, this lonely path
I go now, to the land I dread
Father death, my guide
Brings me to the other side
We’ll cross the veil my friend
And I’ll stay until the end
The void lies below my feet
A pit filled with misery
But shining above I see
The city of destiny
Which way to go?
Will I be freed?
[Solo: Estrada]
[Solo: Taft]
Sprites, they come to me
I’ve seen, them in my dreams
I go, with them now
To a place that
I could not conceive
With spirits at my side
I head into the light
The city of destiny
Is almost within my reach
What waits in there for me?
The life that I wished to lead?
The men that I had led?
Destiny lies ahead
The gates appear
the end is near
my path ends here

Aware of your tragic fate
you fear your own born curse
Your fate is written down
and it has been sealed, must not be revealed
Destiny is on the path
the path that you created
trying to avoid your fate
but there your fate will wait
Your fate is near
it won't disapear
You can't escape your fate
Look up in the sky
and realize trying
You will live a lie
You can't escape your fate
It's your destiny
and it will not change
why can't you see
Destiny is on the path
you feel the wrath it brings
Worried all your life of the
oracle's prophecy
Knowing whats to come
and what you become
You cant escape your fate
Look up in the sky
and realize trying
You will live a lie
You can't escape your fate
It's your destiny
and it will not change
why can't you see
The oracle's prophecy
[Solo: Estrada]
[Solo: Taft]
You cant escape your fate
Look up in the sky
and realize trying
You will live a lie
You can't escape your fate
It's your destiny
and it will not change
why can't you see

Second Sight
06:12
|
|||
Tonight
I’ll trust my inner sight
The force that’s keeping me alive
When whispers from the moon
Leave my mind attuned
A broken crown
On the ground
There they’ll find the fates
There is where I wait
Forever they’ll deny
My curse of second sight
Tied, this twine that binds us tight
Forcing us to wander
Down predetermined lives
The strands I see telling me
where to go, Who to be
My heart beats fast as I see
The threads of my destiny
Forcing me to my knees
The curse of my sight
Forever enslaves me
Midnight
Visions invade my sight
They show me worlds I can’t describe
Where towers often loom
Blocking the light of the moon
A broken realm
A dead realm
There they’ll find our fate
A world corrupt with hate
Forever they’ll deny
The truth of second sight
Tied, this twine that binds us tight
Forcing us to wander
Down predetermined lives
The strands I see telling me
where to go, Who to be
My heart beats fast as I see
The threads of my destiny
Forcing me to my knees
The curse of my sight
Forever enslaves me
[Solo: Taft]
[Solo: Estrada]
Tied, this twine that binds us tight
Forcing us to wander
Down predetermined lives
The strands I see telling me
where to go, Who to be
My heart beats fast as I see
The threads of my destiny
Forcing me to my knees
The curse of my sight
Forever enslaves me

The Siege of Arkona
05:54
|
|||
A tale of war, when faith was spread by sword
conquest and burn
in the name of the church
Teutonic order
took our land by force
they enslaved our brothers
all in the name of the Holy Cross
Mighty Sventovit
Let your horse ride
Bring us victory tomorrow
Guide our spikes against the Christian heart!
Heathen brotherhood
Stand your ground
The old gods are watching
They will guide our hand
The citadel of Arkona
Is rising up from the sea
We will face the invaders
She will strike and let them bleed
Heathen brotherhood
Stand your ground
The old gods are with us
They will guide our hand!
Time has passed, long forgotten tales
of mighty warriors
resting at your gates
Teutonic order
took our land by force
Heathen brotherhood
Stand your ground
The old gods are watching
They will guide our hand
The citadel of Arkona
Is rising up from the sea
We will face the invaders
She will strike and let them bleed
Heathen brotherhood
Stand your ground
The old gods are with us
They will guide our hand!

Voron (The Ravensong)
07:30
|
|||
Surrounded by foes
Forsaken by the gods
A sudden blow...
Will this night be my last?
So cold is the air
Though there’s life in me yet
A lone bird cries
As the sun stings my eyes
The sound of horns
Shields splintered by their hooves
Through the roaring flames
Our steel sings against our doom
As battle ends
I see the dawn
Where are our sails?
Are my people gone?
As battle ends
I see the dawn
Where are our ships?
I am left alone
Raven, fly away
fly afar to my dear ones
tell them I was wed
I’m not coming back
Spiked club was my priest
Thousand arrows witnesses
Oh raven fly home, tell them!
My thoughts turn toward home
I dream of my kin
My sword slips my grasp
As dark wings descend...
The howl of the wolf
Spectres gather all around
Through a crimson haze
I see visions of my youth
As battle ends
I see the dawn
Where are our sails?
My folk are gone
The battle ends
I see the dawn
Where are our ships?
I am left alone
Raven fly away
Fly afar to my dear ones
Tell them I was wed
I’m not coming back
Spiked club was my priest
Thousand arrows witnesses
Oh raven fly home, tell them!
[Solo: Estrada]
Raven fly away
Fly afar to my dear ones
Tell them I was wed
I’m not coming back
Spiked club was my priest
Thousand arrows witnesses
Oh raven fly home, tell them!
