2. Perfect
Perfect as this clouded rainy day
A rose's born in a concrete plate
Clock ticks away and the rose goes grey
There is no space left for another leaf of pain
And I'm falling deep inside
When I thought I'd found a light
Oh life this can't get higher
This feeling can't be wrong
That eye I put on you
Has gone blind like all the others do
Perfect as the colour of that gun
You put in my head with the trigger in hand
“Come on love me and I'll let you smile”
Somewhere there's a heart that has just died
And I'm falling over again
When I thought I'd found my way
Oh life this can't get higher
This feeling can't be wrong
That eye I put on you
Has gone blind like all the others do
You have to choose your perfect life
Oh life this can't get higher
This feeling can't be wrong
That eye I put on you
Is alive under this lonely hood.
3. In The Sand
Walking down my side
To a darker light
This living death comes out from fire
Inside their eyes
The void surrounds me
I'm not afraid of being in life
Free me from this burned land
Leave lies and promises behind
Destroy a rose, and take another one
Let me justify
Ishtar be my guide
And I will follow thee into the sun
This time is gone
So worlds collide
Fearing of living with all these
Eyes shut
These hands are bleeding
Sand's covering me
In their wrong world
And it makes no odds
Suddenly it all seems so clear
Oh, this heart's still here
Despite the lies that throw it away
Oh these scars won't mend
Coming back to my lonely place
I won't fill this grave in the sand
Feeling this again I'll die
So let me hear your last goodbye
Eyes shut...
4. The Legend Of Sargon
I am Sargon the sovereign
I come from the city of Kish
In the banks of Euphrates
Along many years I reigned
I got the power of my gods
Everybody must obey me
I create the first empire
The great empire of Akkad
The black heads I ruled
Mighty mountains (I) climbed
The sea lands I crossed
I am the Mighty One
Armed forces I devastated
Great walls I knocked down
Powerful cities I conquest
and one hundred warriors lost
Men of Mari follow me
Because Sargon is his king
Sons of Akkad have the power
Now they control the world
The black heads I ruled...
I am Sargon King of Akkad
I am Sargon The mighty One
I've got prisoners in Elam
Lugalzaggesi fought against me
But he couldn't win Sargon
"Mighty Sargon, you're the King"
The black heads I ruled...
I am Sargon King of Akkad
I am Sargon The mighty One
If you destroy this inscription
Hutu'll get your heart
This is my prophecy.
5. Desert Sunset
6. Gods Struggle
Rise from the east
The great pantheon
Divided are the ones
They can feel the fear
Change our lives
To nothingness
Threatening the past
Which is our side?
Dark light in the sky
Light bright in the night
War and destruction
Destruction and War
Our faith is gone
Offerings are still the same
Where is this heart going?
To bid your farewell
Live on your own
This life comes and goes
Our gods are divided
To my fortress I will run
Oh, we're all alone
I ask why
Your knowledge and power
Are confronted
Dividing our town
With this bloody
Useless cruel war
Dry up this world
Consume it all.
7. Nida
This shadow works too well
Surrounding all my veins
Fading colours into grey
I'm still knocking at my door
But this heart is deaf
These words have no sense
For you... for me
I've seen my new girl
But she's still looking for me
Welcome my tears
It's been a while since the first time that I bled
I had to fail you
Oh but now it's ok,
The sky is blue
And it's all fine ...Again
Let me introduce my self to me
Try to enter in my life
Try to destroy my entire life
And try to remake all this lie
And try to steal this fucking heart
ENTER
DESTROY
REMAKE then
FORGET!
So here I got your song
This present will set my soul free
Ignore it, I gave the same to another one
No I don't feel alone
As you might think, some one is to come
Ignore him, and remember that
I existed once before
And So do I,
That's why I die
My little angel
I still cry your tears
As you fall down
I'm rising I'm touching you
Holding hands
I erase this memory so I can believe
that my life was real and I...
...Oh I used to fly
Come and think of me, please
Oh Swallow your pride
I'm no longer free
So I got this trigger here
Nida, Nida, Nida come and heal me
Nida, Nida, Nida come and heal me.
8. Ziggurat
9. The Curse Of Akkad Part I: Enlil's Anger
I'm gonna tell you a story
Of an old town
The story of how hate, rage and lies
Can grow up for a crown
An Oblivion won't die
As the storyteller said
So now close your eyes and dream away...
“It all was made by the will of Enlil...”
The Moon showed his light
Over Kish town
Enlil opened his heart of hate,
Sargon swallowed the pain whole
When he reigned
And Akkad was rich and powerful.
But those days have gone
The Ekur's been destroyed
Where are the sons?
The sons of Akkad!
Naramsin the immortal
He lays in the river Euphrates
Waiting for dawn
So the atrocity began
The Ekur was destroyed
There was no other choice
Akkad's Serenity
Where's now the human being?
The town is silent now
The sun's going down
So this is the story
Of Akkad's misery
Now no one wants the crown
Of this damned town.
10. The Curse Of Akkad Part II: A Mirage In The Desert
“The dawn arrived....”
“Oh great Enlil, I talk to Thee
No Wall, no rival against Thee
Kish is so quiet, that I can hear Thee speak
God I wish you not to believe”.
Turning back to Akkad
The flames burn higher
The Ancient ones had to blame
But it wasn't worth it
'cause they were the masters
Oh the dark ones,
The Masters of Akkad
All the settlement could hear the growls
From the mountains above
Shadows were descending down
It was the Guti town.
11. The Curse Of Akkad Part III: The Fall
The curse was cast ...”
There was no salt in the sea
There were no feathers in the trees
There was no hope for the century
The seed of pain had grown
Flowers of madness reigned
All over the crown.
Akkad's Serenity...
So this is the story...
And then the rain fell down
Covering all that they had
The ruins of Akkad
The future was just a mirage
Of a world that never was
Decay of Akkad
The sun sets forever more
Over the old destroyed town
The ruins of Akkad
Everything can change
Even the most perfect soul
Akkad!
And thus ends our story
Of a bloody town
The story of how
Glory and men can destroy a land
And our lives will go on
As Mother Nature did
You know what they say:
“The story repeats”.
12. Perfecto [Perfect Spanish Version]
Dulce como un día gris y helado
Una rosa nace en el asfalto
El reloj no para y la flor marchitó
No hay espacio aquí para un poco de dolor
Y aquí estoy pensando en ti
Cuando pensé que era feliz
Vida inalcanzable,
Nada nunca existió
Y el ojo que puse en ti
Se cegó como la luz del sol
Perfecto como el color de tu revólver
Que apunta a mi mente y desgarra mi sien
"Venga ámame y te dejo sonreír"
En algún lugar otro corazón murió
Déjame volver a caer
La culpa es mía si la ves
Vida ...
Escoge tu perfección
Vida inalcanzable,
Nada nunca existió
Y el ojo que puse en ti
Se cegó por ti y tu perfección.
13. Nida [Extended Version]
