1. Overture
"...What begins shall end,
what sprouts shall rot,
what lights shall shine no more,
for night claims no future,
but the future itself..."
2. Koryvantes
"...We are the dancers,
we dance by the stars,
our hands stretched upwards,
to engulf the falling skies,
and the fake promise
of life and hope..."
3. Sylvan Eos
"...A light by the night's path,
to the morning star shining,
where nymphs and maidens danced,
mainades to Kevele.
Ancient magic touched this soil..."
4. Puteus
"...Descending in the pit of future,
now hailed by misery,
imprisoned by life,
enchanted by death,
and the tomb of eternity.
In the lifelong nocturnal silence,
suspended in our glacial universe,
trapped in the cobweb of our dwelling,
we open our eyes and witness our tragedy.
Descending in the pit of future,
now hailed by eternity,
imprisoned by time,
denied by life,
yet never absorbed entirely by death..."
5. Hunig
"Someone asked what is purity.
...The queen of bees dying,
in a tomb of wildhoney,
made of decomposed flowers,
the feeling of becoming
and a dying star of light..."
6. Regn
"...What rain shall wash away,
blood and soil and pride,
the call to war of a dying race,
the scream for freedom,
the scorn of fate shall sound again,
one last time,
in these god forsaken lands..."
7. Poein Phaos Ek Skotos
"...What began in light,
only in light may end.
And what in pain started,
only through pain shall stop.
For truly, there is nothing more joyous
than the moment of release
from this pathetic life..."
