1. Across Hidden Levels
Traveling with obscuring eyes through time
As the blind witnesses of centuries
Trying to restrain the altering world
Disturbing the circulation of the elements
Another being opens wide
Secret dimensions come to light
And we aren't afraid, but it's the process
Of our transubstantiation!
The memories of some deranged minds
Are lost in the whirls of time
But the conscious act of the people beyond control
Seems to be away
Seems to be away
Enter the boundless state
Of mankind's darkest night
Just be a part
Of this endless mental waste!
Of this endless waste
Don't you feel the gripping embrace
Around your heart?
Don't you feel the guilty conscience
Within your soul?
It hurts!
It hurts!
Your life will be slowly insensitive
But you're calm, 'cause you think
That you have left no stone unturned to escape
You'll fall victim to your self-made circumstances
Since you've crossed the path of higher senses
Open your eyes and your mind to another world
Open your soul to Her
Let its temper fuse your essence
And meanwhile face a new Universe!
Across hidden levels
2. False Redemption
The years are going by so cold and fast
And you feel that in the line you are the last
Right, time is not on your side
You were born in the wrong place
But if you will not fight
You'll be swallowed by the swamp!
Waiting for redemption
This is the fact that keeps you alive
Mental satisfaction
Unknown concept in the chamber of your mind
Everything is false around you
Your best friend is an arrant liar too
They are laughing at you in defended safety
No difference between madness and sanity
For them
For them all
There's no difference
Between madness and sanity
For them all!
Searching for the ray of light again
Following the only sign onward
There will come a man who gives the blessing
For those who live alone and became so hard
I am not the one who
Will save you from the traps of naivety
Where is now your guardian angel?
No difference between dreams and reality
For you
For you all!
The world became so grey
Since you've lost your inner rest
I tell the truth into your face
I get it off my chest
Time was never on your side
You will die in the worst place
But you never wanted to fight
Your lungs are filled with mud
Waiting for redemption
This is the fact that keeps you alive
Mental satisfaction
Unknown concept in the chamber of your mind
3. Return to our Older Selves
We all were born pure and innocent
With the chance to unite the marvels of the Universe
The opened minds and hearts are kept alive onward
The invisible mysteries after souls arrived...
A new life begins when soul meets flesh
With every wonder of mental being
But the material swamp wastes the essence
And it will be missed at the gates of passing
We all will die impure
We all will die sinful!
Just take a look around - are you satisfied?
What you see is not enough to clarify
The sins and shameless lies against our right
To live in a human world a better life
The gleaming of the surface
Makes you blind!
Believe me, it's nothing else
Just illusion!
From the Earth to the Sky
From the depths to the heights
You must be weightless to fly
Realize the might inside
Try to leave your dust behind
Free your life from the pressure!
I see the fate
Of the insatiable, greedy men
I see your face
You're standing in a queue among them
The gleaming of the surface
Makes you blind!
What are you running for?
What are you fighting for?
What are you chasing for?
What are you longing for?
We all were born pure, pure and innocent
With the chance to unite the marvels of the Universe
The closed minds and hearts aren't kept alive onward
The invisible mysteries after souls depart...
4. The Missing Reason
If I knew the only Creator
I would look in his eyes and I'd say to Him:
Don't let me be born again
Don't inject more life into my spiritual veins!
'Cause I'm tired
Of seeing it all again and again!
Now our life is no longer like floating
Aimless floating in the middle of nothing
What does the word "supremacy" mean?
Compared to what are we higher?
You will never observe yourself
You are blind and deaf and ignorant and dead!
People have lost the way
To the center of self-realization
We are quite far away
From the essence of our inner selves
Do you know where I can find
The missing reason for the crimes?
I could never understand
How you could be the same
As the scum of this planet?
Do you know where I can find
The missing reason for the crimes?
Tell me about the meaning of life!
I'd like to believe: you won't be right!
You'd better try to escape
From the deadly embrace of this world
This way is hard but it's worth it
You can only be freed by drastic steps!
Now our life is no longer like floating
Aimless floating in the middle of nothing
You will never observe yourself
You are blind and deaf and ignorant and dead!!
On the sixth day God has failed:
He has created his own destiny
Mankind destroys everything
We live in a labyrinth without exit!
We have only past but what will be
With the non-existent future?!
If I were the only Creator
I would look in your eyes and I'd say to you:
I won't let you be born again
'Cause you would inject
Even more dirt into the veins of Earth!!!
5. The Reckoning (After the Last Second of the Last Hour)
Countdown to the day that will be the last for everyone
This thought fills us with fear
One life, one fate - we are living in the shade
Of the clouds of our destiny
We have to punish our sins
As a rule, it's too late to show repentance
It's over the forgiveness
There's no one who dares to resist it
We are killers
Listen you fools - we're the fault in this masterpiece
You had better comprehend:
Our fragile world falls to pieces!
Life will never stop
It goes on without us at the most
As if nothing had ever happened...
What I see at the end of this tunnel instead of light
Is another tunnel which leads us to the dark
Am I the one who knew it at sight
During our infinite blind-flight?
A real nightmare - we cannot hide away
A real nightmare - from which there is no way out!
After the last second of the last hour
Ancient temptation -
Living in the spell of lust for power
Yearning for even more and more -
To conceal the emptiness from them...
A real nightmare - we cannot hide away...
Countdown to the day that must be the last for everyone
One life, one fate - in the shade of our destiny
Listen you fools - we're the fault in this masterpiece
But you will never comprehend:
Our fragile world falls to pieces!
6. Inhumankind
Let me invite you
To the darkest place what you've ever seen
Let me show you
A low form of existence
I think it is against, against the sense
The screams of a dying world
Like a million thorns under my skin
I can't suffer the weight of
The mountains of the barriers
We have created them and they will bury our lives
There is no more shine
In the empty eyes
There are no more words
From the silent mouths
The ignorance
And the impatience of the crowds
Are the keys in the hands
Of the highest oppressing forces
That define specifically the concept of free will
I have to live in this hopeless present
In the prison of our physical presence
Where is no more shine in the empty eyes
Where are no more words from the silent mouths
Nobody cares about the state of affairs
And nobody wants to change nothing!
Inhumankind
In human kind
Inhuman mankind
In human kind
Who has the right to direct and judge
Who has the power to try to enslave us
Against our wishes?
This time will be the one
When we'll enforce our inalienable rights
And cut the heads that are deeply,
Deeply in the sand!
Who has the right to direct and judge
Who has the power to try to enslave us?
Listen! We've to make a new order
Instead of laws
Listen! We've to arise from the depth
Of the controlled mass
Sometimes I imagine my life
In a world that I've often dreamed about
Is it a real world, does it exist?
Or is it just a dream reading my mind?
There is no more shine in the empty eyes...
7. Downfall (of our Almightiness)
I've lost my past and my dreams have gone with it
I can't take a look into the future, and I resist
My present that surrounds me
With the walls of defencelessness
Downfall is coming
Outside and inside our being
Can't stop it's flowing
The means of madness are still spreading!
Nothing is real
Just our pain and fear
Time doesn't heal
And the last act is too near...
I'm just waiting for the minute when people realize
The aimlessness of their lives, the justice behind their lies
I don't care about your stillborn apologies
Salvation can't be yours, you are guilty and forever will be!
Downfall is coming
Outside and inside our being
No excuse for wasting
And the means of madness are still spreading!
'Cause the means of madness are still spreading!
Just like a hermit in his cave
We're so alone in the same way
With some wrong ideas
Inside the confused heads
Concerning our
Mistaken almightiness
But our banishment is not voluntary
We're all responsible for all that have changed
Does every cloud have a silver lining?
No, I don't think so...
Will mankind reach a higher form of being?
No, I don't think so!
Did everyone deserve a life free from cares?
No, I don't think so!!
Does everything happen by any chance?
No, I don't think so!!!
8. The Final Collapse
Rejtett síkokon keresztül, a hamis megváltás
Látszat-ígéretén felülemelkedve
Térhetnénk vissza régi önmagunkhoz...
De hiányzik a magyarázat az emberiség tetteire,
Ezért majd mindennel és mindenért el kell számolnunk
Az utolsó óra utolsó másodperce után...
Az embertelen emberiség gõgje által
Sohasem létezõ mindenhatóságunk elbukik,
És utolsó felvonásként
A végsõ összeomlás lesz méltó jutalmunk...
And finally we'll find a broken mirror
Beneath the sand of our wicked deeds
The rage of Earth as a raw dust
Between the cold material and our faces
We won't see our reflections
Corruption is reflected in the mirror
Unknown creatures are staring at us
From the other side of the lost balance
We didn't learn from our mistakes
We cannot live in all conscience
There's no second chance for the sinners
We betrayed our future and gave ourselves away!
We tried to exploit and banish the endless power
That will annihilate the world of people
The time and the space prevail over us
They get their force and influence back
And as it has ever been
All of you will discover it after the last hour
Following the final, ultimate collapse
Suddenly, all that has been said
Will unseal the eyes of those
Who built the strongholds themselves
Why do you think this time it is different?
You will never get past the walls
For they are built from the invisible
Yet they stand to make you believe
Everything outside is mere emptiness
Something written on the surface with blood
Something you will never understand!
We have the power to see through
We possess the force to break the trail
Still, we will place all bricks back
After we managed to get through...
