1. Mater et Magistra
Starving souls seeking meanings through
An ocean of lies and despair
Helpless preys in a silent watch
Waiting for a sign…
Dazzled by guidance
Souls shedding innocence
Listening the silence
Heeding the call of the unholy mother, the teacher...
Defiler of the lost souls…
Inside my soul I pray but this darkness opens the gate
Hungry for words of hope... but it’s not too late
Can I wake from this reverie?
Leave all grief behind,
Maybe time allows me to see all the light…
Son, the truth lives in my words,
Kneel before your fate
Or pay the price that waits for a soul without faith…
A shallow faith feeding of these lives
Promoting hypocrisy
Spreading like a fatal disease
Deceivers in disguise
Dazzled by guidance
Souls shedding innocence
Listening the silence
Heeding the call of the unholy mother, the teacher...
Defiler of the lost souls…
Oh, in the new dawning day...
Lord, I’ll find my own way...
Ruling the heart of the master
Breaking the will of the strongest
Raping the land of the righteous
Crushing the proud of the kingdom
Marauding… murdering…
Plundering the soul of the humble
-Chorus-
2. Among The Crowd
I just live my life alone in the dark
Wherever I may go there’s no sunrise
(when I lost my soul…)
I don’t really know what I’m looking for
So many years have passed since I forgot
(why I lost my soul?)
Why we’re living out of time?
Why we keep here asking why?
It’s so dark, where is the light?
We’re alone among the crowd
Hearing songs beyond the sound
Being crushed by the loud
Wandering through rumble memories
Forsaken by people who never really cared
(why I lost my soul?)
A miracle in hell is my sojourn in here…
A lonely shadow staining the light
(when I lost my soul…)
-Chorus-
I’m buried alive in the inner self tomb
The light in my eyes are gonna fade away soon
Down here there’s no fate, I just wait for my time
I’m dead but for now, just inside…
There’s nowhere to run and there’s nowhere to hide
There’s no place to go but inside my own mind
Reason leaves me, when I’m about to remind…
No one can save me anymore…
A miracle in hell is my sojourn in here…
A lonely shadow staining the light
(since I lost my soul…)
-Chorus-
3. The Lies Behind The Mirror
Illusions of power from perverted minds
Trying to make me believe in their lies…
I must sacrifice my dreams to honor their gods
They want to make me believe that I’m lost…
They say: “Lost you’ll ever be…”
So I think I’m lost forever, I’m free…
So take my hand, and look my friend…
The gears of insanity now are turning
So take my hand, and look my friend…
Can you see the lies behind the mirror?
Their souls are so empty, like an endless dark cave
Just powerless minds blinded by shades…
Their mortal eyes looking through a veil of dreams
A belief as concrete as dust in the wind…
They say: “Lost you’ll ever be…”
So I think I’m lost forever, I’m free…
So take my hand, and look my friend…
The gears of insanity now are turning
So take my hand, and look my friend…
Can you see the lies behind the mirror now?
They say: “Lost you’ll ever be…”
So I think I’m lost forever, I’m free…
So take my hand, and look my friend…
The gears of insanity now are turning
So take my hand, and look my friend…
Can you see the lies behind the mirror now?
4. Spirits From The Iced Garden
Tears falling from the edge of sky…
Built statues, all the artists cry…
Eternally trapped into the void…
All the spirits will unfold their voices…
Chalice of death is tempting in sin…
Gathering souls it holds within…
Crusher of spirits takes them down…
…As they enter the realms of his bounds…
Temptation forces me…
…To climb these walls,
But the gardens were still when I fell
Under my feet something is melting…
I’m too real for standing in here…
I close my eyes
Spirits tried to help me, it’s too late…
I forced my nature to an icy stage…
Now, I can hear silent voices’ call…
Here, where night never falls…
Frozen lies adorn the garden
Wicked statues on the shrine
Snow keeps falling from the sky
A frozen sun shining behind
The curtains fall inside my soul
The stage is empty… can I go?
Can touch no statue or flowers
The curse of spirits will follow…
In my last minutes … I saw them all
Dead iced bodies… underground
Near the sun and above the garden…
The artists lie on an iced Eden…
5. End of Century
When all the flowers smell the same,
Growing apart from their seeds
Endlessly forsaken in this fatal game
And now all is lost, but the seven seas.
In the mirror of life reflected I see (ashes)
In a second sight, (I see) the ashes now are me
No senses... When dark will be bright?
I was ready to brave the seas of sand,
But there’s dust filling up my eyes,
I won’t make it here, at this century’s end...
In the mirror of life reflected I see (ashes)
In a second sight, (I saw) my ashes now are me
The way her heart beats ... so silent
The way she dances ‘round me ... (static)
The question of what is beyond life,
It’s in nature’s grace; the answers are in the sky...
So don’t ride against the twilight
Trying to find the key for your soul,
But you may find a wrong path inside
The answers are now in the depth of the sky...
In the mirror of life reflected I see (ashes)
In a second sight, (I see) my ashes now are me
The way her heart beats ...so silent
The way she dances ‘round me ... (static)
The question of what is beyond life,
It’s in nature’s grace; the answers are in the sky...
6. Damned Train
My life passes before my eyes
And only now I can see…
Obsessive thoughts made me forget
Simple things just like live…
Chorus 1:
You must be wise
Hear and learn and realize
Live your life with no sorrow
And no pain… just get away from this
Damned Train
I’ve wasted my life on those tracks
Following truths that now I can’t believe
Waiting for trains in deadly stations
Burning my soul in fake sensations
Chorus 2:
You must be wise
The real precious things are all disguised
Look for the sun behind the storm
Run off the rain… just get away from this
Damned Train
I’ve walked a thousand miles
And I’m still a slave
I’m just a stowaway in this train
And I’m traveling to my grave
-Chorus 1-
Now look at your own reflection
And tell me what you see
There’s no achievement, no revelation
You can see nothing more than frustration
-Chorus 2-
7. A Season in Between
A stand-alone in this place, completely out of sight
Waiting for my time to step on light
All those dreams once I had are all still alive
Waiting for a sign to bloom and fly
Doesn’t matter what they say… only empty words
The final sunset comes for all of us
It’s just a season in between… the winter and the spring
Just a moment... moment trapped in time… in time
A stand-alone in this place, completely out of sight
Waiting for my time to step on light
All those dreams once I had are all still alive
Waiting for a sign to bloom and fly
I keep the flame of tomorrow’s sights… blazing inside
I keep the storm of emotions alive… it will never die
I let the waves of the faith I kept… wash (away) all the lies
All those dreams once I had, they are… all still alive
Waiting for a sign…
8. Above The Sins - Part I: Dying Dreams
Human weakness just hides them
We can't understand, mediocrity awakes them up...
And they walk side by side with you
These defiled minds slighting everyone's lives...
I feel my world fading to me
Escaping between my fingers...
These dying dreams
All leaving me
Called by my screams...
Evil minds are working here
The choices are done
And we don't have any clue...
By the end all this world
Couldn't see, the insanity
Will finally set us free...
I feel my world fading to me
Escaping between my fingers...
These dying dreams
All leaving me
Called by my screams...
While we’re still here
Watching this cloudy sunset
In those gray skies the sun no longer can shine...
We are far away from the stage
Where all men are staging their doom
But we are still a part of this...
At the same time a tear falls
Vanishing between so much, so much blood...
Doesn’t make any sense...
Looks so unfair to me...
Sometimes I wake in the middle of the night…
Fearing for ourselves…
I wonder if someday we’ll finally learn…
How to look beyond our lives… and feel the pain of others…
I must believe that someday we’re gonna heal instead of hurt,
And then we’ll finally be above the sins of this earth…
9. Above The Sins - Part II: The Remains of Myself
We pray to idols we could never see
(and) feel sorrow for the unbeliever...
The time conspires against the strong
While he prays to himself...
Feeling alone and abandoned inside
Surrounded by so many like me...
The struggle within...
I always believed that the mirror could lie...
For days and days I await...
Wait for the time to wake up
Inside my soul I can feel all this cold
That seems to warm up all around me...
The nightmare’s inside
I live for the day when I can see all signs...
Marching on, the tragedy arises over me
And my heart beats stronger and stronger
With fear and doubt throwing shadows
Over my soul I can see...
I see the remains of myself
So many wounds never heal
Up the purple skies
Those dense clouds look standstill so high
If our eyes weren't blind
We could tell, there's a sun shining behind
That's a war we can't win
Although, we're damned to fight repeating sins
No matter if we run away
I know for sure, we're gonna fight another day...
Above the sins of this Earth
Our eyes must see now...
Above the sins of this Earth
