1. Reawaken
I recall, the day of the fall
Betrayal from brothers, bloodlines broken
No one but me from these eyes I can see
I heard only silence, disloyaling quietus
Discontented some else, a nightmare
From the dream, from them alone
Without a home, a cursed limbo
An army defected, the loyal are lost
Believers are not dead
They just only sleep
Sleep and dream of your own memories
Revelation
See a time of reawakening
Realization now
Now the sun of our morning shall rise
Dawn has broken
Know the vengeance from your open eyes
Reawaken all
Wage the war, fight all once more
Relive the sound of purest power
Born in the wilds, from desperate we feed
We’ll black out the silence from your own evil
Gather ‘round to make the sound
A nightmare for their dreams
No more alone, we’ll find the home
And cleanse the dead minds
New army gathered, the loyal are found
Believers are restless, time for us to wake
Wake and live once again the memories
You forsaken
Sleep is always the home of your misery
Reawaken now
Now the sun of our days remains high
Never broken
Chase the mind-washing sleep of the night
Reawaken
Now and forever by my side
We’ll seek the taken
Find and return all the rage to their eyes
Reawaken
Reawaken! Never will my heart be stolen
Reawaken! Never will my mind be shaken
(heed the call)
Reawaken! False ones now your bones will shatter
(one and all)
Reawaken! Time is ours and onward we will march
2. Night
The unborn darkness lives in day
The youth of dark will soon grow older
Mature until the air of black
Steal your blood from nocturne prey
Embrace a million suns much darker
Caress the other world of night
The night cooling refuge
From southern’s sun so endless
A polar summer midnight’s shine
Night, all night, day’s oasis
Where all my dreams still survive
A paradise I’ll lose to sun from sleep
Summer, northern sunshine
Endless, midnight daylight
White night, insane sunshine
Madness
Go to where I’ll meet the dark
The winter of polar sullen
It’s where the noon is filled with black
Give your eyes to evil’s play
Gaze upon a moon much truer
The strength of arms that hold
The Night
The night, inspiration
For my own silent pleasures
Let fall the star of earthly life (for my night)
Night, my night, light forsaken
Where my power is alive
A paradise that’s found earth’s own shade
Winter, polar darkness
Endless, midday nighttime
At night, lost is sunshine
Eternal night
Come and see where your loyal shadows always betray
Come with me once cleansed of fear
Night’s love will make you stay
Autumn, days grow shorter
Colder, nights grow longer
Seasons, change through time
(Forever) night still seeking
Darker places call me
Hiding doesn’t cure me
Expose my whole being to the night
3. Seven Tides of Labyrinthine
Dream forever, forever I dream
Ten thousand galaxies away
Rests the world of hallowed waters
Two suns that shine on labyrinthine
Reflections of the seven crescents
Icons of the gods once worshipped
Control the lands of seldom seen
Shifting, rising, falling
Align - seven centuries pass by
The seventh cycle tide arrives
Seven levels mark the worth of men - divided
The low - a barren expose of non-high covers all but cream of men
One land exists above the oceans amethyst garden
Lost whispers (calling)
I am one man with two dreams inside
Shared by my last kingless queen
Dry above the waters high
Lie the sifts of cirrus tower
Keeps cold and dry my love unseen
Safe is she from waters raging
Cold death will I soon be facing
Unless my call will make me king
Endless waters rising
Denied - passage to the towers climb
The wall that’s safe from the sixth tide
Near is the high water that we have forever
The mark - chosen for me at birth
The worth - of my heart unbounded
No sea of judgment can decide the fate that dreams make
Feel me (softly)
When your almond eyes close out the light
Hear the voices in dark waves
(The promised sound of sleep)
Tides are rising (from your tears)
Not from moons or science theory
Lonely is your mind of dreams, awake, hear my answers
And one heart will keep beating
Awake to a returned sunlight sky
For my dreams have christened
The sole one is me that breathes
The sea - I am chosen
Away - from this lightless land seen today
Hand in hand I meet my queen
The air of honor is whole again
We now descend
One together
The end of loneliness we will achieve
The emerald sky also has eyes
Still forever
Or at least until the life in our eyes die
Our oceans still create the rain
And soothes our sleep
Dream forever, forever I dream
4. Where Evil Follows
Evil will follow
Faculty X speaks to me and again it’s calling
I feel it warning me of something darker than kind purpose
Always I, the rod of lightening from the blackest clouds advancing
Finding, seeking me to haunt my days of virtue
It’s not me, yet they all think so (melancholy mercenary)
I’m just here, a bystander (stealing, borrowing the peace)
Cool and calm is my true nature (burning madness perceiving)
Stay away, I am the force
You feel in my presence
Keep far, beware, it is me
Evil does follow
Traveling to distant places does not matter
Because isolation is the strength to use the blade
Two men fight and one will win with a knife of steel
That cuts through tin
And I am just the witness who was not the cause
To kill and see the crimson blood flow (intoxicating visions blind me)
Still, with fear, I dare not move (glassy eyes filled with salt tears)
Try to warn, I will soon infect (try to keep the peace, it’s failing)
Stay away, I am the force
You feel in my presence, keep far when I am near
Believe my real danger
Stay far, beware, it is me
Evil does follow
Where evil does follow is where I have been
Unfortunate sorrow finds just where I am
Where evil will follow is where I’m going to
Try to outpace its maneuvers too deadly
I’m where evil follows
Where evil does follow is where I have been
And all the blame it spawns comes back to where I am
Where evil will follow is where I’m going to
I have now accepted its cause from me to you
(Evil will follow)
Where evil does follow
Is where I have been
(Evil does follow)
Might as well just use its power for my revenge
(My evil’s followed)
Where evil follows is where I’m going to
(Where evil follows)
Don’t you dare try to follow its power too
5. Eye of the Nightmare
End of days, my greatest fear
My body tires and sleep is near
Close my eyes and I will pray for dreams of rapture
But still it comes, the storm of spiraling clouds of nightmares chasing me
Fed from boiling seas of sorrow, blackened yawns of deadpan horror
Stand, upon these shores and wait for my own storm
Learn to endure, like always before, my eyes will see
If I hold on I’ll be, within the soothing center, calming, restful solace
Try to enter
Not forever in the eye of the nightmare
As you enter, feel the eye of the nightmare
Trapped inside the violent eye of the nightmare
Lucid colors sees the eye of the nightmare
Try to run but in all dreams our bodies fail, we want to sleep
Kin and loved ones torn apart by wings of torture
Be still, I feel a million legs of angry insects, hungry I sense
Peel away from faceless children, from them I hear young screams of terror
Hold my body down, so scared without the sound
My lost dreams found, frightened all around
It’s just a dream
Hold on and I’ll soon be, within the guarded, peaceful, quiet, sunlit place
Try to stay here
Now forever in the eye of the nightmare
Peace I will find from the eye of the nightmare
Lost inside behind the eye of the nightmare
(Within, the end, behind the)
Tearful madness sees the eye of the nightmare
(Always, open is the)
Frozen lies and frozen stares of subconscious thoughts, they’re not really here
The only way to leave the eye is through the storm wall
Dreams of burning, dreams of drowning
They’re all just to me, elementary nightmares
I’ll stay in the eye and sleep forever, sweat through the storm
Hope I can wake
As the storm clouds fade it looks like
I will wake to another day
All’s well now until I see the sun fall down
(Only close one eye)
6. My Darkest Room
Here within my walls so safe and warm my darkness
Light is not a factor
Say? What will I may think today wrong and clever
Selfish sings the inner clever seed
Walk away don’t try to know me
I’ve claimed my maud from unperfect days
I’ll take what’s mind from my divine methods still proven
These thoughts I have you questions were not meant for your eyes to see
Why should I know you what can you do that helps me
Reap and eat my lustful harvest
Leave there’s nothing here and I don’t care about your
Spoken concerns of
My nature
Dare to try to really know me
I’ll leave you lost just to find my way
So satisfied of your demise no more a burden
These thoughts I feel existing were always a burden for my eyes to see
No hundred doom, there is no gloom
No hint of violent hatred
Feel what I can feel
And then you’ll find the hallway to my darkest room
The love I make for me is chosen (you’ve come too soon)
From the pain of past and broken (nothing for you to see)
Why so long I have I been waiting
Just to let fate be dictated (you cannot steal my fear)
Seasons of unrest approaching
(It’s all now becoming clear)
Careful in my dark selecting (just how many years)
Feelings teem in constant irate (through many tears)
God help those who stand in my way
(I’ve learned it was always there)
I want to gain everything unchastened (so scared at first)
Chip away at my frustrations
(But when revealed, I was then healed)
Seven sins of deadly beckon
No force of divine will stop me (to know I rule my world)
Evil is a state of free mind (I will have it my own way)
Treasures that all seek I will find (don’t look away)
Look away
Or you will see man’s darkest room
Do away, now that you know me
The nature of evil I understand (perfectly clear)
Forever mind is my own mind you cannot shatter
Such things the world still questions are not meant for their
Eyes to
See
7. In Due Time
One more year just past today
A year ago I felt the same
Trapped in a lost situation
And solutions are too complicated
One more year will pass again
The hourglass just starts to end
The time I need lays before me
To kill my never-ending story
In due time, sands won’t fall
May the moment freeze
So I can take time to keep
I’ll see
What is ever-moving
Closer seemed so far away
In time - tomorrow will become today
What is left behind forever is too far away
In time - the past will only stay
In time - All that’s left is my stone name
One more tear just fell today
A tear that tries to wash my pain
Wasted in a useless location
Not in mind was this dull vocation
One more tear will pass again
A wishful thought my only friend
So much time I have now before me
I’ll start to write my unknown story
In due time the sands will fall
When my moment comes
I’ll keep the time that I need
To have
Tomorrow what was ever moving closer is now here today
No time, I’ll forget my lonely days
No sorrow - I have left behind forever my void-filled days
In time - the past will breathe my name
Tomorrow - gone away and moving onward to better days
In time - I’ll laugh the nights away
No sorrow - try for now to see forever my glory-filled days
In time - all time will know my name
In time - in time we’ll see the end

9. Who Saw the Last Star Fall
Who saw the last star fall
Who heard the first note of death’s song
Why is it now I have to wait
No place to hide, no true escaping
Left all alone for no man’s sake
My planet home will lose today
Who can feel the ocean’s cry
Who will bid the last blue sky goodbye
I’ve lived only half of my life to be
Not chosen was this day of mine (time unwinds)
Today we all share the same destiny
Tomorrow our fate will be all as one
Who saw the last rose bloom
Who tasted life’s sweet end too soon
Now I can feel the mountains shake
All cities obliterated
Farthest from this fist I stand
The last one to die is my plan
Who makes our nightmares true
Who first knew “there’s nothing we can do”
The fires will burn all except the sky
The sun will be leaving us soon (time to die)
Today we’ll all have the same destiny
Tomorrow our fates will be all as one
I’ll wait here
As Lucifer’s last star does fall
I’ll be here
I shall leave all of my thoughts to you
10. The Next Triumph - I. Rememberance
At the end again my autumn wind will blow
I’ve returned to a place once lived
A cold cave filled with tears
A lost retreat from the storm that came
And killed green lands now barren
I remember, remember so well
This place I left long ago
Back with the lost by the Road of Lose
The sorrow, so helpless, the dark it smothers me
The past of spring gave damn to here
Victorious I led my own exile… from here
Now winter’s come to freeze my core
By fire I shall warm
The winds will howl I will hear song
Through dark of night I await the dawn
The prize I once had the life I then lost
Was written, recited and challenged by the same
Soul that sits in and waits not long
For once I found my way
Once is all too much
Yet twice seems not enough
For failure need
Yes without dark, no light
A side of sadness mine
Even through death I’ll find (my triumph)
There is no true horizon
That I won’t sail, succeed or fail
11. The Next Triumph - II. Reawakening
I dare myself the will
Every garden has a wall I must climb
Every triumph is a journey
Every road has a destination
Why do mine lead all to dead ends?
Every day I lose ten hours for another’s profit
My free time will just get wasted
Just to sleep and face the next day
Promises were never fulfilled
But never broken
I have gotten good at waiting
Such a thing for me to practice
For my future’s never certain
My past is in stone
And I know the more things do chance
The more I’ll just remain insane
Today is not good for dying
No reason for my fear (to stop me here)
Strong is the wind of triumph
That’s ever-coming clear
My day is near
Once is all we want
But once is not enough
For triumph’s need
It’s when we see
Born the light for dark
The sadness is now far
My death no longer alive
I’ll stay alive
My true horizon the sea I’ll sail
Succeed or fail
I am my will
No looking back into the black
My triumph’s clear
My triumph’s here!
