1. Vae Solis
[Lyrics: - Macey]
The fire in the sky He who gives us light The sun - our lord Giver of all life His coming has been the herald The dawn of a new cycle For as long as it has been remembered It has been this way
He is life eternal The focus of our worship We dared not look upon him Until this fateful day
[Solo: - Macey]
His flames diminish! Shadows begin to fall At the apex of his journey This cannot be so! In terror i look into his heavens I need not shield my eyes Dust rising from afar Is swallowing our lord
[Solo: - Macey]
[Solo: - Macey]
The ground trembles In the distance thunders roar His powers blast the lands Fierce winds whip up the sands How have we displeased him? Not in lack of dedication We cower as the skies darken Our lord is nowhere to be seen
[Solo: - White]
He did not return Deserting us in twilight Without his solar powers Our crops withered and died Terrible winter froze the sand Killing the sick old and young Our faith is all that binds us to These lands our lord has left us to
2. Dreaming in Splendour
[Lyrics: - Coss]
I see a world Structured from my soul Palaces from my dreams My spirit can embrace You attack my body Making me ever strong I shall stand tall I am everlasting
Souls rise to the eternal sea The weak crumble away Strong becoming ever stronger A force beyond the mortal Hear the souls call Lifting me from within Embraced i rise A god in my death
Reaching the invisible mass It engulfs me with sanctity I am caught with the others The ones who dream in splendour My beacon burns so bright Becoming brighter still My call cries over all I have risen beyond the physical
[Solo: - Macey]
I rise
I soar
I am everlasting
[Solo: - Macey]
Call out to me As i soar above Beyond the power of sight I exist in a world of dreams Physical state gone from my memory I rise forever more Immortality beckons I exist eternally
[Solo: - White]
3. Wrath of God
[Lyrics: - Macey]
Riding forth - for the greater glory of their god Riding forth - To rage against their infidel Taking by force - Claiming holy lands as their own Allachibar - Can no one withstand the power of their god?
Sent by their pope They rewarded tolerance With no mercy To reclaim their Holy lands They had to have slaughter Diplomacy a concept Lost on these uncivilised barbarians
[Solo: - Macey]
I come forth An unstoppable wind of the east Taking under my vast wing New lands for my governance Horsemen of the open steppe No one can withstand "If you had not been so evil, i would not have come" For i am the wrath of god
[Solo: - White]
[Solo: - Macey]
4. The Caller and the Listener
The lowly
Piteous, weak, but by nature abhorrent
The fallen
Throwbacks to a distant age
They clamour
United in aspiration
Grovelling for their redeemer
As prophesised
They turned their voices
Towards the heavens
Using the arts
They called out into the void
"Oh Lord, enlighten our souls"
In nescience
You know not what
Your exaltations have unleashed
It hears
The ovation falls
On open ears
Yet you know not
What your exaltations have unleashed
It hears and it doth come
You know not
What your exaltations have unleashed
It comes
Sing the hosannas and it comes
Sing hosannas and the great host comes
You called for me
And you shall have me
Through your eyes
I shall pierce your souls with fear
And then you shall run
5. Bequeath Thy Visions
