1. Call to Oblivion
All the falling tears
Running down the lifeless face
Time crawls without attention
One was put into oblivion
While man has nothing to lose
He'll become the most dangerous
Society's every crime against mankind
Is backfired at least dozen times
They can see and they can die
But they can never hear thoughts beyond these silent minds
Hatred controls and dominates
Under the boiling soul
Fearless mind is ready to battle
And to judge the others out to oblivion
They're whispering after man's ego
Waiting fervently to slay him
But either they can't escape
Fiery flames of the Hell will consume us all
When I see my sky dark and threatening
I start to fear if we all are meant to
Walk alone this downspiraled path
To the core of engulfing emptiness
I can hear my call to oblivion
2. Scenes on the Battlefield
Men would fight to death to prevent dying
Shortly after the beautiful twilight
Shadows are blending into the night
Fallen men're vanishing from view
Predators have become the prey
Desperate men are concealing their identity
What the mysteries they had inside?
This hopeless scenery cannot lie
Souls aren't whispering from beyond
Lives have passed into damnation
The opportunity to join these unfortunate souls will remain
Faces... do not smile
Forces... did not abide
Everything they decided not to take with was left untouched until the end
Hopes... did not make
Lives... were fully drained
Spirits arose from behind the tombstones to fight with fury against this supreme enemy
Behold, it's the nightfall; they will follow wraiths' call
Suffering from the steel and flame they didn't know wherefrom the death came
Dead men aren't wielding swords or shields, these are the scenes on the battlefield
When they run out of blood they can enter into underworld
Do not even whisper a word
This tranquility lies like grave
Which departs the fool from the brave?
The answer lies on this scene
Dead men aren't wielding swords or shields, these are the scenes on the battlefield
3. Of the Chivalry
I am one with my mind
When I create my nights
Through dead ground I ride
Readying my blade which is meant to end their lives
I can hear their wrath
Through the fog that cuts my sight
Their eyes are red and bright
Glooming over this haunted night
I am the knight and I hunt down and strike
But now I am going to hide, I cry, I run
Away from this blight
I am the knight and I hunt down and strike
But now I am going to hide, I cry, I run
Away from this blight
I can feel their breath
Staring eyes and motionless faces
Makes me fall onto my knees
And beg for my redemption
I am one and only knight
When I survive from my nights
Through dead memories I ride
Loosing burning passion of my blade
4. Realms of Tarterus
Wolves are searching for the corpses
Blood flows slowly to the sea
Mourning echoes and eerie howls
Run across the entire Greece
What am I doing amidst this land?
Cursing the gods and my fate
I'm all alone in this darkness
Creeping through my nightmares
Prometheus, you who gave us the fire
We're counting again on your words
Let wisdom guide us through this era
Give me strength to slay warlords
Our people is caught by the Pandora's gift
And we fear ending to the Tarterian realm
Yet before we enter to the final rift
I wish you could give us a part of your dream
I never felt I could escape in the air
Now when I see the flickering torches
I know my history is sealed in despair
No help offered makes me curse my lords
Nature whipped my religion
And finally defiled it all
In agony I sought salvation
Found it from dusk ending in dawn
Sharp iron meets my flesh
It burns me with Phoenix's heat
Voices decrease into silence
I'll stay waiting for my bird's rebirth
5. The Black Wall Grows into My Skin
I'm listening to the wind like it would carry a message for me
Who has screamed his pain as load on these feather-light wings?
Misery overwhelming, making earth shake beneath
Or happiness I could hear; leaves of trees would dance and sing
Snakes are writhing into their holes
Birds are leaving their nests
Circling around me - these furious crows
I'm trying avoid being hit of their invisible fists
The stories I heard keep haunting me over and over again
I'm covering my ears wish having the bliss of ignorance
What words could mute utter to let the deaf hear them?
And who the artist could paint a vision blind may watch in trance?
Winds are burning me like fire
Screams are tearing my skull apart
I start to add my own cries
To this abominable wind letting others suffer
While I'm flying far away I am floating in still air
The black wall that I can't see grows into my skin
The poison I'm struck weakens me and doesn't dilute
I fear I'm dying and escaping these rooms without leaving a trace
The wall is closing in and grasps me with infernal wings
My face tells nothing for there's no one to see it crying in pain
And my last wish shall be when you hear my haunting scream
That you'll join me at my house and see my garden in full colours
