1. Sphere Eclipse
Blind by science, stained by blood
You look down to this global cage
filled up with misery and pain
(presented as) a coffin for your punishment
While the religion gives the sense
in praying to an imperfect might
Accepting the mutilated
bodies of little babies
as payment for the luxury of
a so called real and poor church
Somewhere they lost the meaning
twisted it never seeing
there's no justification
for this runaway creation
Nothing is true and nothing is false
while no one can build or destroy
worlds in less than seven days
Nothing is gained and nothing is lost
It's all a game that has no rules
Reality is insepted by
reality so all we see is
created by electron waves
that flow out of a living screen
The truth is portrayted just like a show
where hate rules all the winners take nothing
While a hypocritical humanity
sends frozen kisses to a
tortured people lawn-mowing
the endless mind of
different thoughts projected
by clean white coats in a
castle of science no one
can control and what's more
Nothing is true and nothing is false
while one can build or destroy
worlds in less than seven days
Nothing is gained and nothing is lost
It's all a game that has no rules
played by men and won by fools
2. Transgressor
Transgressor I am
The one
Force of the future
Control
The new ways are stronger
Obey
(your) Weakness is (my) power
Downfall
I'm the transgressor - Predecessor
Overstepper - Strong aggressor
Put your ways behind you
They only have confined you
They are the chains that bind you
Needn't I remind you
I am the tempter
Extravagant my ways
The worid is my
Menagerie
Freedom the dream of
The weak
Knowledge the scheme of
The meek
Boundaries of this world
Behind
Apes walking upright
Mankind
Transgressor born to lead
I will satisfy your greed
Soon you'll understand
The power I command
Transgressor the one
The process has begun
Soon you'll understand
The power I command
Reality is gone
The new weys are strong
(Transgress)
3. True Lies
"Hello people, this is Jason, back again on channel 5, here are the news:
Mr. President declared his mind for peace and admitted the contra's support -
...All we need is economical development!
A congess member said: "He's wise..."
All I hear is lies (guns for freedom)
But they're true lies!
We are goddamn manipulated
We are so guilty at their truth
It's our duty to be true to ourselves
They move the mountains, the force of nature on it's knees and they are your personal gods
Paper's patient, you can print the way you want it, black on white - the reborn truth
...All we need is economical development!
A congess member said: "He's wise..."
All I hear is lies (guns for freedom)
But they're true lies!
We are goddamn manipulated
We are so guilty at their truth
It's our duty to be true to ourselves
These's danger in their speech, born from unholy greed. Their lies made them believe in it.

All I hear is lies!
All I hear is lies! (they dedicated what has been, so it will be again.)
All I hear is lies! (the helpless'll get no sight to compare...)
4. Confession of Madness
Where do we go? Wake up people!
We're on a deadrace. There is no time!
How can you believe in or trust it?
This system's proofed that it's absurd
Setting signs
he tried to wake them up,
open up their eyes.
But they don't listened
They were all too busy.
Facing just the end of the day.
Never thought of tomorrow.
Yes, I know. More you'll ever will
Maybe I scare you. I reflect what scared me
Why do you all baffle my warning?
You'd better let this in your life!
Prosecution
for he'd disturbed their dreams,
distorting his speech
Being here on his own,
with that vision he had seen
Yes, I know (he must be) out of mind
in another mental sphere
Setting signs
he tried to wake them up,
open up their eyes.
But they don't listened
They were all too busy.
Facing just the end of the day.
Never thought of tomorrow.
There is no time
There is no time
5. Interludium
6. Dance on a Volcano
7. Toccata
8. I, King, Will Come
Now it came so far (with me)
I was really scared (ha, ha)
Today I'm risen from this sphere
I was to see it at once
This is my kingdom, I'm bestof it all
Today's messiah, it's me
I, king, will come (beat me on the cross) This is why I'm born
They practice their rites (wake up!)
Real ridiculous (what pope?)
They believe that Jesus enforced all evil
Nothing could harm them no more
But chaos rules, they come from outta space
Come for enslaving the world... ...but
I, king, will come (beat me on the cross)
This is why I'm born
9. Dreaming
10. The Cure
When you'll come back home again
Weary from the fight
I will nurse your wounds and I'll
release you from your weights
You must be hungry and
There's blood upon your hands
So please come in and I will cure your fever
Why don't you rest your head
You long for warmth I bet
You needn't worry of a thing when I'm near
(He's the cure)
I'm the cure
I'm the cure
What can just light up your heart
When you're in the dark
What just makes privation worth
What's dearer to a man
To see this face again
To touch this body and
To feel the blood pulsating in your veins
Your hunger will be fed
For every tear you've shed
You'll get the threefold pay in just one long night
(He's the cure)
I'm the cure
I'm the cure
11. Night on a Bare Mountain
