1. Supernova
[Music: Holmlid, Mörck Lyrics: Mörck]
Do you believe
in powers extreme
bewildering majesty
Can you perceive
A vision supreme
eruption serene
Grim destiny
infinity
radiant intensity
Ethereal sphere
future severe
benevolent fear
Heed to its fortune bestowed
Marvel and let it explode
to the inferno we go
Detonate the sun
and soar into the supernova
now it has begun
a solar mass undone
Say, can you feel
destruction surreal
deadly calamity
a final demise
in godly disguise
now will arise
Heed to to the wisdom of old
unleash a glory untold
to the inferno we go
Detonate the sun
and soar into the supernova
now it has begun
a solar mass undone
[Solo: Mörck]
[Solo: Holmlid]
[Solo: Magnusson]
Heed to its fortune bestowed
Marvel and let it explode
to the inferno we go
Detonate the sun
and soar into the supernova
now it has begun
a solar mass undone.
2. Cassiopeia
Beautiful queen of the waters
Borne by celestial mother
Sublime astrological divinity
Punished for vain intervention
She sacrificed godlike ascension
Stripped of Olympian serenity
"Solar winds will carry me far away
from here take me to my journey's end"
Hear a goddess cry
a silent hopeless sigh
from a sactum divine
From the stars she still whispers
Envied among all her sisters
Entwined in a kingdom of infinity
The tears of an astral descension
derived from her moonlit dimension
A star that is fading to obscurity
"So, my wings will carry me far away from
home bring me to my final rest"
[Solo: Mörck]
[Solo: Marios Iliopolous]
Hear a goddess cry
a silent hopeless sigh
from a sanctum divine
Hear a godless cry
when astral angels die
in a sanctum divine
3. Contact
A cryptic equation
of a pulsating light
An unearthly riddle
from beyond the starlit sky
Message of unknown design
Heavenly but non - divine
Sent by intelligent minds
An echo through space and time
Fractal figures, deciphered lines
Stellar visit is nigh
See the fire in the cloudless night
Bright reflectoin of lights in my eyes
Now we will see
will our contact be
salvation from afar
a guiding star
Solo: Holmlid
A cold observation
of systematical eyes
Our demeanor trasnfigured
A calculeted demise
Contact with alien life
Heavenly but with non - divine
Communication with cosmic minds
that navelled through space and time
See the fire in the cloudless night
Bright reflectoin of lights in my eyes
Now we will see
will our contact be
salvation from afar
a guiding star
Solo: Mörck, Holmlid, Magnusson,Mörck
Complete fulfilment of ancient signs
A swift destruction by higher minds
See the fire in the cloudless night
Bright reflectoin of lights in my eyes
Now we will see
that our contact will be
destruction from afar
one final war
4. Astronomy
I'm getting closer
In a higher ground
My destination
Lies beyond the sun
Not afraid of failure
to crash and burn
If you're not living
you will never learn
counstellations far
revealing my destiny
Astronomy
there among the star
Like a higher conscience
living in my mind
You're always with me
Till the end oof time
It is there before me
Undisguised
No hesitation:
I'm on the rise
Constellations far
Revealing my agony
Astronomy
There among the star
"A life without strife is a moonless night"
Astronomy
"Ascend to sky of endless light"
Astronomy
Solo: Mörck, holmlid
Constellations far
Revealing my destiny
Astronomy
There among the star
"A life without strife is a moonless night"
Astronomy
"Ascend to sky of endless light"
Astronomy
5. Antimatter
Radioactive decay
A separation of fractal cycles
Decelerating array
nothing stands in my way
Anti-Universe
Before the stars were born
from matter it was torn
Reach out, you will...
See, what science won't believe
A mirror for this world
Through gateways you will pass
Inverted human mass
"Interstellar travels naught,
in contrast to this...
...inversion of the universe known"
There will be no return
and soon you will learn
Now follow me
Before the stars were born
from matter it was torn
Reach out, you will...
See, what science won't believe
A mirror for this world
Through gateways you will pass
Inverted human mass
Leave this earth to a plane
With shadows lost in time
A vision of anti-life
Abandon your strife
[Solo: Magnusson]
Before this dream was born
my vision was forlorn
Now believed but...
Now behold what can't be seen
The mirror of a dream
There will be no return
So reach out, you will learn
6. The Book of Shadows Part IV: The Scrolls of Geometria Divina
7. Beethoven's Nightmare
Twilight, Candlelit walls
A Strong Crescendo
Highlight the lonely calls
From my piano
Melody, come to me
sing your silent voice
Remedy my envy
Bring me one last choice
Why, why can't you bring me to find
To hear your sound
no wayfarer is blind
See my hands
Conducting a Nightmare
The symphony of a tragedy
So great it devours me
These notes are just fantasy
Perpetual Dream
won't let go of me
I struggle to live
without the notion of a sound
that could open my mind
Moonlight, make me conceive
a slow sonata
Midnight, the dead will grieve
to this dark cantata
The detestable dance to my score
they hear my cries
Your guidance I implore
See my hands
Constructing a nightmare
the symphony of a universe
So vast it devours me
These nights are just fantasy
Celestial Beam,
help me to see
I struggle to live
without the notion of a sound
That could open my mind
Solo: mörck, Magnunsson
Into a Unending Sorrow
A festival of horror
An orchestra of the undead
So bright my destiny was
Golden future
Inside shadows amass
Nocturnal rapture
Melody, come to me
Sing your silent voice
Remedy my envy
Bring me one last choice
Why can't you bring me to find
to hear your sound
No wayfarer is blind
See my hands
Conducting a nightmare
The beauty of a melody
Is all that inspires me
to write my last symphony
Perpetual Dream
never lets go of me
I struggle to live
without the notion of a sound
That could've opened my mind
8. Too Late for Sorrow
Show me
Will you lead the way
To a place where I will feel this pain?
Tell me
You will always be by my side and wait
For these final moments?
Close your eyes
And hear my whisper
Longing for a sign
'Cause I lived my life
I lived my life
Lost all of my hope
And I'm fearing tomorrow
Where will I be?
Trying to see
But it's too late
So now I know that I'm alone
And it's too late for sorrow
Trust me
This is my advice
Don't look back in time and try to realize
So hold me
I will always be by your side
And wait for this final moment
I close my eyes
And hear your whisper
Calling for your sign
I lived my life
Lost all of my hope
And I'm fearing tomorrow
Where will I be?
Trying to see
But it's too late
So now I know that I'm alone
And it's too late for sorrow
I lived my life
Lost all of my hope
Now it's too late
I lived my life
Lost all of my hope
And I'm fearing tomorrow
Where will I be?
Trying to see
But it's too late for sorrow
It's too late for sorrow
9. Direction: Perfection
Just one
One more and I'll give in
Say Why you stalk me
Everlasting crave
Fly through the light
In nethern realms you will find
No more deception
Exception
Now save your pride
Walk this line
and I'll be your guide
See your final hope
is fading with the light
that blinds your eyes
Gaze high
and see why you will know
in every vision
Thre's a truth that hides
Fly through the light
In nether realms you will find
your right direction - perfection
Now save your pride
Walk this line
towards the other side
See your final hope
is fading with the light
that blinds your eyes
solo: Mörck
Fly through the light
in never realms you will find
your right direction - perfection
