1. Legion X
Our soldiers keep marching on fighting from dusk till dawn
as they slay their enemies in a by gods forsakened land
As I wake the morning after waiting to collect my tole
again this tenth legion keeps marching on my soil
So we wet our steal waiting for another ferocious kill
extinct, wiped from the face of this earth.
A ravished landscape will be the last thing the’ll see
the next kill after slain the revolt
Within my lap they lay wounded waiting for the sun
to bleach there bones
only a ruined landscape will remain
emaciated and defeated after months of fighting
now there are bound to serve their nemesis
this glorious era after the great revolt
batavodurum survived through ruins and time
2. Batavorudum
To Arms, at dawn it starts
As we march on toward our doom
As they gather at batavodurum
To slay the great revolt
These legions marching onwards
to their final fight
Writing history without knowing it,
in this struggle to retain their freedom again.
Warlords and gods,
Leaders of great nations to be
in their everlasting fight for freedom.
As we suffer from these religious fables we have no meaning as mortals
so martyrs they must be.
Rebelling against their ceasar
Through storm and glory we ride, the men of the earth
Alongside with creatures great and small. From all regions
for infinitive legions arrive to fight for freedom
rise of a Nation, build on the ruins of our own forgotten civilization
With the Grim Reaper by our side,
Feel the cold mourning fog
The stench of death as we
March into war for the last time
Destroy, conquer, rebuild,
Julius civilus and our great countrymen
were slain at batavodurum to rise once again
Rise of a Nation, build on the ruins of its own forgotten civilization
These men didn't die in vain,
They fought for their believes
to retain their freedom again
rise of a Nation, build on the ruins of our own forgotten civilization
the Grim Reaper by our side,
Feel the cold mourning fog
The stench of death as we
March into war for the last time
This city forged by fire and war.
3. Moenen en Mariken
Verdwaald en alleen in een donkere stad, geen plaats voor de nacht.
Wees niet bang, ik ben een vriend ik help je wel.
Ik heb voor jou geen vrees of angst;
al kwam Lucifer zelf uit het helse geweld,
dan nog vreesde ik niet. Zo is 't met me gesteld.
Als je mij tot de jouwe maakte
Alle vrees is me ontnomen.
Wie ben je, vriend?
Professor in de wetenschappen.
Alles lukt me, wat ik ook probeer.
Het maakt me niet uit met wie ik verkeer,
met de verdorvene of de volmaakte
ik zal je de zeven vakken leren
tot in de puntjes: musiceren,
logica, rekenkunde en alchemie,
Alles behalve de zwarte kunst zal ik je leren
De waarheid weten, dat hoef je niet.
maar voor jou ben ik goed, jou heb ik hoog.
Hoe heet je, vriend?
Moenen met het ene oog, Ik heb vrienden in alle hoeken en gaten.
De duivel ben je, uit de hel losgelaten.
Jou heb ik hoog. Jouw beschermer ben ik.
Geen aardse vrouw was ooit zo'n geleerde als jij zult worden.
We feesten en leven in zonde
Ik heb alles gedaan wat mijn god me verbood
nu zie ik pas wie ik echt ben
Ik gooide haar hoog in de lucht
zodat ze haar nek zou breken door de val
Je zult met mij ten onder gaan
en me vergezellen in de hell
Als je mij tot de jouwe maakte
7 jaar lang heb ik alle 7 zonden beleefd.
Nu moet ik de heiligste man om vergiffenis vragen
Ren en vlucht nu het nog kan.
4. Our Goddess will rise
Rise and fight
In her name
Slay the filth
And their apprentice
Summoned by ancient spirits,
she comes to life
Rise from the silent slumber
Bringing forgotten gods back to life
Call for her
unleash the chaos
upon these
pity full humans
destroy them
and Rise…
My Ancient gods
Summoned by ancient druids,
she finally comes to life again
Rise from the silent slumber
Once the greatest Nemesis of their time
solo richel
I’m M: the god of death
Emerging M: from the river styx
I’m God of thunder and lightning M: riding high in the skies
We will emerge S: from the netherworlds again………
solo Richel
Fight M: in my name
To defeat M: you’re worste enemy
Heading towards the ancient light my goddess rise
Emerge from your slumber goddess of our earth
Rise and fight
In her name
Slay the filth
And their apprentice
Call forth the
ancient Goddess
And she will
rise again
Summoned by these ancient spirits
The greatest nemesis of their time
Rise from thy silent slumber,
come to life
5. Amducias (instrumental)
6. The Anatomy of Melancholy
The wind is breathing in my face
While the rain is crying down on me
and the sun tying ro hide away
Waiting for the moon to set today
ReF.
It's time to move on
realising we have done our best
Trying to escape our past,
My mind has been set, knowing wath I want do
My beloved goodbey I have to let go
entering the serpents coil
The place were the moon does not wane
and the sun does not set even
for a one single day
I can see past the stars
I can see through the past into the Future
My life passing by slow but fast too
It's time to move on
realising we have done our best
Trying to escape our past,
Grab my arm, as you have to let go.
The last look on her beloved face ripped my soul in two.
All empty promises not come through
No one seems to care
The state you’re in.
As we all differ to much
My mind has been set, knowing wath I want do
My beloved goodbey I have to let go
A new beginning in time, regrets remain, so does the pain
Not al can be restored, some wounds will never heal again
Changes take place like a highspeed race, and you’ll never gain,
Full awareness of that wich surrounds you..only the pain will remain
As she died quietly in my arms, all dream gone away
But you cannot alway gues wath’s on someone’s mind
Looking for the things in life I cannot find.
Lead astray by the beauty and might of female supremacy
"If Loving you would have been a crime I would have been sentenced to death for it."
7. Archangels fall
What did I, Lucifer, do, to earn such anger from Him
Forsaken and lost I fell into the bowels of hell
part demon M: part fallen angel
It’s better to reign in hell
Then serve in heaven
I longed for those golden, honey days, before my fall
I enjoyed the full pleasures
of heavenly paradise.
Lovely, Sublime. Grand. Glorious.
More than you can immagine.
Forsaken and lost I fell into the bowels of hell
part demon part fallen angel
It’s better to reign in hell
Than serve in heaven
I longed for those golden, honey days, before my fall
I enjoyed the full pleasures
of heavenly paradise.
Lovely, Sublime. Grand. Glorious.
More than you can imagine.
But even in Heaven pride has its price
and petty disputes rule the day
I’m the personification M of all that’s forbidden
I will take ever changing shape Like a fluid
An unpredictable, and bewitching character.
I’m the personification of all that’s forbidden
I will take ever changing shape as a fluiZ
An unpredictable, and bewitching character.
part demon part fallen angel
Temptation my trade seduction a game
What did I, Lucifer, do, to earn such anger from Him
Forsaken and lost I fell into the bowels of hell
part demon part fallen angel
It’s better to reign in hell
Than serve in heaven
If your god likes humans so much,
why does he want so few of them to get past his golden gates.
and the devil is and optimist when he thinks He can make humans
worse then they are.
