1. Sanctimonious Sun (intro)
I've spent my days in exile
And moons were passing by
And memories of distant days
Fled before my tired lonely eyes
2. Blood Red Ink
(Strophe 1)
Starlit nights used to make us wonder
If it's right to fear the distant thunder
But we think of what told the prophecy
Blood red ink shall write our history
(Chorus)
And we live under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway
(Strophe 2)
Breathe the air you'll get drunk with anger
And despair but we won't surrender
Bear my friends this uncertainty
In the end will we die in pain or break free
(Chorus)
We live under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway
(Chorus)
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway
3. Grinning Hunter
(Strophe 1)
Starlit nights used to make us wonder
If it's right to fear the distant thunder
But we think of what told the prophecy
Blood red ink shall write our history
(Chorus)
And we live under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway
(Strophe 2)
Breathe the air you'll get drunk with anger
And despair but we won't surrender
Bear my friends this uncertainty
In the end will we die in pain or break free
(Chorus)
We live under sanctimonious sun

Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun

What was once our hideaway
(Chorus)
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway
4. Serpent's Kiss
(Strophe 1)
Fade to grey unleash my tears
For I have bound myself with fears
Because this loss of hold so deep
Crushes my head and steals my sleep
(Chorus)
The serpent's kiss still on my lips
Misfortune's hands its bitter tricks
Not wearing off these bitter ties
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
(Strophe 2)
For it's within a furious tide
Not bound with day not bound with night
A shade of fate's distorting ties
Still tearing sadness in my eyes
(Chorus)
The serpent's kiss still on my lips
Misfortune's hands its bitter tricks
Not wearing off these bitter ties
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
(Chorus)
The serpent's kiss still on my lips
Misfortune's hands its bitter tricks
Not wearing off these bitter ties
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
Can't lock my heart my burning eyes
5. Beacon Fire
(Strophe 1)
I'm farthest from the graveyard
I'm farthest from the end
I'm farthest from oblivion
And from my final stand
As long as you deny this
You'll never find the truth
You'll never find the answers
That heaven sent for you
(Chorus)
Walking through these empty pages
Found myself in misery
Found a trust to rearrange
My life and seek my destiny
Besides the path the dark embraces
No beacon fire guides your way
And you're adrift through empty spaces
Leads you to serenity
(Strophe 2)
A trail of mortal torches
Is heading towards the end
To find the final reason
That they won't understand
I curse the rain-swept seasons
And all the wasted nights
I'm farthest from being born to
Rush through my life and die
(Chorus)
Walking through these empty pages
Found myself in misery
Found a trust to rearrange
My life and seek my destiny
Besides the path the dark embraces
No beacon fire guides your way
And you're adrift through empty spaces
Leads you to serenity
Serenity
(Chorus)
Walking through these empty pages
Found myself in misery
Found a trust to rearrange
My life and seek my destiny
Besides the path the dark embraces
No beacon fire guides your way
And you're adrift through empty spaces
Leads you to serenity
6. Flame of Deceit
I've sworn to the night
(Strophe 1)
Light my heart flame of all needs
Show me a reason to serve and to keep
Bring forth a topic to satisfy my lust
Choke down my life's task sink down into dust
(Strophe 2)
My bleakened eyes have sworn to the night
Too dimmed to see and not ready to fight
My bleeding hope that uncertainty I feel
This retching slope that forced me to kneel
(Bridge)
So many ways are opened to me
But I turned wrong not capable to see
That through the skies a thunder is breaking
My mind is drowned my heart is forsaken
(Chorus)
Beacon fires remain in the past
No lights to shine they're not built to last
Inside I feel that implacable need
I call it now flame of deceit
(Strophe 3)
I thought that I could handle my creed
And hours passed in an insatiable beat
Running by time points rampant at me
In the beginning this was not to foresee
(Bridge)
So many ways are opened to me
But I turned wrong not capable to see
That through the skies a thunder is breaking
My mind is drowned my heart is forsaken
(Chorus)
Beacon fires remain in the past
No lights to shine they're not built to last
Inside I feel that implacable need
I call it now flame of deceit
(Bridge)
So many ways are opened to me
But I turned wrong not capable to see
That through the skies a thunder is breaking
My mind is drowned my heart is forsaken
(Chorus)
Beacon fires remain in the past
No lights to shine they're not built to last
Inside I feel that implacable need
I call it now flame of deceit
Flame of deceit
7. Sojourn
Born into a world under the surface of lands
Born into a world under the surface of lands
(Strophe 1)
Born into a world lying deep
Under the surface of lands
A sombre realm where peace deceives
And where virtuous life ends
Different in faith he knew
He had to forsake his heinous race
Once he grew strong enough
He left his kin to find a tranquil place
(Chorus)
He was born into shadows
But he strove to live decently
Left his home for new borders
Doomed to wander eternally
(Strophe 2)
Through darkest caverns
Along secret passages away
He faced gruesome perils
Which constantly led him astray
But finally he chanced to leave
The hollows of the underground
Vanquished his fears his strength prevailed
His long-seeked liberty's unbound
(Chorus)
He was born into shadows
But he strove to live decently
Left his home for new borders
Doomed to wander eternally
His reverence ignored
His valour's in disgrace
His life bound to his sword
Falsely feared misplaced
An eternal curse imposed
Black-skinned stranger shunned by most
(Chorus)
He was born into shadows
But he strove to live decently
Left his home for new borders
Doomed to wander eternally
8. From a Pirate's Mind
(Strophe 1)
I've been so many times out there on the sea
Close to shipwrecks skulls and their legacies
Far from any shores that man claimed to know
Never cared how far my journey might go
Through thunder and lightning through uprising storms
My bold crew stands tough my fine ship performs
Whatever peril will threaten our ways
We welcome you to our glorious days
(Chorus)
Pirates recover the treasure
Brothers defend it with your lives
Fight all who oppose us
Glory by guns and boarding knives
Canons loaded and ready
Fire hit them in the eye
Attack them no surrender no mercy
Forever our banners waving high
(Strophe 2)
A spark still within me reminding these days
When we fought battles in powdery haze
Raising the banners we're ready to fight
We will return at the peak of the night
Forever forsaken the clashing of steel
Apart from the four winds so empty I feel
Whenever I feel the sea's cold embrace
I will remember these glorious days
(Chorus)
Pirates recover the treasure
Brothers defend it with your lives
Fight all who oppose us
Glory by guns and boarding knives
Canons loaded and ready
Fire hit them in the eye
Attack them no surrender no mercy
Forever our banners waving high
9. Neverlasting
(Strophe 1)
You start to fall at dawn
Giving up the mask at night
Thinking in a special way
That doesn't ever last
(Chorus)
Neverlasting stream of life
Be opened to my spirits rise
Neverlasting beam of light
Condemned to live a futile fight
(Strophe 2)
Extinction's gentle hands
Hold tight your slowing mind
While silent is the beat
Traceless the answers that you need
(Chorus)
Neverlasting stream of life
Be opened to my spirits rise
Neverlasting beam of light
Condemned to live a futile fight
(Strophe 3)
Never drag too much
For it is destined to die
Never lose the fire
For that you're asking why
(Chorus)
Neverlasting stream of life
Be opened to my spirits rise
Neverlasting beam of light
Condemned to live a futile fight
10. Insanity (bonus track)
(Strophe 1)
The wrong world in the wrong time
Full of murder hate and crime
Tries to get rid of his thoughts
Tries to free his broken heart
Little guy all unknown
Never seen and never shown
All he wants is to be no more
The fucking man shut the door
(Chorus)
He's insane
In a cold and godforsaken world
Misunderstood and helpless
He wants to give us all his pain
He's insane just insane
In an insane world
(Strophe 2)
Never strong and never tall
Always protected from parent's wall
He thought he could be a man
Executing his lethal plan
Couldn't stand in a world of success
Lived in vain lived in distress
His problem was he had no choice
The lunatic heard the voice
(Chorus)
He's insane
In a cold and godforsaken world
Misunderstood and helpless
He wants to give us all his pain
He's insane just insane
In an insane world
(Strophe 3)
He's insane didn't cut his vein
A psycho in his aeroplane
Couldn't change the world by dread
Didn't want to live like that
Snipers couldn't bring him down
The hours passed he flew around
In the end his fears prevailed
His mission's over he was jailed
(Chorus)
He's insane
In a cold and motherfucking world
Misunderstood and helpless
He wants to give us all his pain
He's insane just insane
In an insane world
