1. Greet The Storm

- Greet the storm - (Jonas Gustafson)

Silence...
Await the sight of my dreams.
Medieval treasures revealed.

"My hands caress the pearls of time.
I gaze at my shallow grave.
The deepest well calls my name.
I shall walk in the temple of kings."

Dying... seemed so calm and still,
but now foreseen another realm.

Daybreak, greet the storm, the vengeance of lords.
You will see what I saw on the day of the war.
Lightning...
Blood-rain fell from the sky.
Angels were killed by our Emperors wrath.
Fire, mighty horns of darkness... they fear.
Death will be what I saw on the day of the war.
Lightning...
Blood-rain fell from the sky.
Angels were killed by our Emperors wrath.

Pride always glows in our eyes...
...never looked back when they cried.
"Dawn... eternal shrine,
the secrets arise."

Ride, knights, tales of the battles we've won.
Once, our warrior blood were denied.
"Mourn, the first sign of the hawk,
your fragile god has died."

Daybreak, greet the storm, the vengeance of lords.
You will see what I saw on the day of the war.
Lightning...
Blood-rain fell from the sky.
Angels were killed by our Emperors wrath.
Fire, mighty horns of darkness... they fear.
Death will be what I saw on the day of the war.
Lightning...
Blood-rain fell from the sky.
Angels were killed by our Emperors wrath.

Wander the pathway crowned.
A journey of crimson tides.
"Drenched and cold...
in the beautiful midnight frost,
they died."

Sleep, find, a labyrinth formed by thoughts.
Thorns under a mystic moon.
"Weep... By the wounds from our faith,
your fragile god has died."

The golden circle, the earth within,
holds the darkest shadow of my bliss.
Now in the magical mist of dreams,
I cherish the face of glory...

Daybreak, greet the storm, the vengeance of lords.
You will see what I saw on the day of the war.
Lightning...
Blood-rain fell from the sky.
Angels were killed by our Emperors wrath.

Flow... The dark always flows in me.
Silence.....




2. In times of sculptured shadows

- In times of sculptured shadows - (Stefan Sundholm)

On the mountains shadows lay heavy.
On it's walls symbols of frost.
A voice of knowledge filled the sky.
Tales of gateways so dark, (gateways so dark).

The moon reigns this land once bright.
The veil of goodness is broken.
Unnamed empires of silver light.
Beneath a welcoming winter night.

Reflections of a sweeping wind
throwing shades on this crystal creation.
A hymn to the stillness of night.
I wish this world were thine.

Oh, how sad a grieving heart.
A sorrowing shadow stood.
Weeping yielded spirit.
Enraptured by compassion.

Now the myth of eternal light has vanished
with the last rays of the sun.
Embraced were the shadows growing still.
By the mist of our heart, not tempted by light...

Reflections of a sweeping wind
throwing shades on this crystal creation.
A hymn to the stillness of night.
I wish this world were thine.




3. The gathering of tears

Winds, I'm forever lost.
Tears what is left to be seen?
My god, my god, what will I become?
I see no light...

Like a dying flower, in the season of grey.
Like the northern wind, in the land of dreams.
Like a solemn figure, in falling snow.
Like a bleeding statue... I lose my faith!!!

I hear a serenade...
But why this bitter end?
Why...?

"With mourning eyes I gather tears."
Through this veil of thorns I fail to see...
what I believe!!!
A calling to a darker time.

"I stand in the gloominess in this stream of pain.
Dark tears leave my eyes as I watch the sunset."

Who will guide my shadow, to the burning sky?
Who will be my voice, when I speak no more?
Who will ease this burden, when all grief is gone?
Who will watch the night, where I belong...?

I hear a serenade...
But why this bitter end?
Why...?
Winds, I'm forever lost.
Tears what is left to be seen?




4. Ember of illusions

- Ember of illusions - (Jonas Gustafson)

"Within these walls... I decipher
the ember of illusions."

Yearn, for the dream that will prevail.
Oh, all the tears and all the thorns.

Where chanting angels dance...
with feathers so darkly grey.
When daylight brings it's glare...
they swiftly move away.

Yearn, for the dream that will prevail,
for all the tears and all these thorns.




5. A Void Unsealed

- The gathering of tears - (Jonas Gustafson)

Winds, I'm forever lost.
Tears what is left to be seen?
My god, my god, what will I become?
I see no light...

Like a dying flower, in the season of grey.
Like the northern wind, in the land of dreams.
Like a solemn figure, in falling snow.
Like a bleeding statue... I lose my faith!!!

I hear a serenade...
But why this bitter end?
Why...?

"With mourning eyes I gather tears."
Through this veil of thorns I fail to see...
what I believe!!!
A calling to a darker time.

"I stand in the gloominess in this stream of pain.
Dark tears leave my eyes as I watch the sunset."

Who will guide my shadow, to the burning sky?
Who will be my voice, when I speak no more?
Who will ease this burden, when all grief is gone?
Who will watch the night, where I belong...?

I hear a serenade...
But why this bitter end?
Why...?
Winds, I'm forever lost.
Tears what is left to be seen?




6. Under My Wings

- A void unsealed - (Stefan Sundholm)

Horizon...
On the shore of the sea of illusion I stand.
Alone I stand.
Lost ages ride the waves of the dark cold waters.
Eternally...

Incessant echoes of choirs proclaiming what will be.
Monuments faded and forgotten.
Landscapes of a coming epoch, a frozen and dark existence.
The distant dying sun now extincts forever!!!

Black storms, dark nights, black eyes in the darkened sky.
Dancing under a shimmering moon, I discern the starlit horizon.

Now near dawn, with silence the mist dispersing.
The last leaves has fallen, the whispers of the forest is dead forever.
A tranquil shadow of frost confines me.
Darkness entices, I'm entering a night without end.

Black storms, dark nights, black eyes in the darkened sky.
Dancing under a shimmering moon, I discern the starlit horizon.

The bells of the past has rusted.
Awakened by a holy and twisted moaning.

Unbound in the valley of tomorrow.
Sanctuary found in another time.
Like a silver tear my soul shines on the starlit sky.
Nevermore alone...

Black storms...
Black storms, dark nights, black eyes in the darkened sky.
Dancing under a shimmering moon, I discern the starlit horizon.




7. The son of ancient gloom

I remember falling rain as the black birds spread their wings.
My soul was mourning by the lake and the angel fled the wolf.
I could hear the forest sing from my December grave.
Saw my bride forlorn in tears then daylight left my eyes...

Night... Godly death... Beautiful landscapes unseen.
Stars, glowing... Dark are the hours I breathe.
I am........ the son of ancient gloom.

I walk to see the sun, in the kingdom of my father.
I find myself at ease, in the shadow of the dragon.
Black candles at my funeral feast, feeding all the flames of death.
In this castle loneliness will breed, again...

Reach the sea of tragedy where all the rivers run.
Enchanting songs from ghastly shapes. The moonlit water is still.
The crying sculpture on my throne holds everlasting grief.
Silence of the nightingale will always grasp my heart.

Night... Godly death... Beautiful landscapes unseen.
Stars, glowing... Dark are the hours I breathe.
I am........ the son of ancient gloom.

I walk to see the sun, in the kingdom of my father.
I find myself at ease, in the shadow of the dragon.
Black candles at my funeral feast, feeding all the flames of death.
In this castle loneliness will breed, again...

The ocean of pure sadness is my burden...
Now the time of my last farewell, I have no regrets.




8. Remembrance of things to come

With burning wings I fall, through the tranquil sky.
My sympathy is lost, beneath your throne.
"I Have walked a silent path of mournful dreams."
I... I sigh, is this all that will be?

Storm of evil at the gates of heaven.
Dark now rising, this will be forever.
Dreaming I see, I see your icon fall.
I have seen what will be.
Dreaming...... I see a land divine.
I have seen what will be.

A season-ending wind...

We shall be found, the lies will cease forever.
With darkened eyes I fail to see your Eden.
Life is fading, time shall release me.

I drink the blood-red wine of empty souls.
I walk through misty halls, I await the dawn.
"I have seen the deepest void where the wind is old."
I... I sigh, is this all that will be?

Storm of evil at the gates of heaven.
Dark now rising, this will be forever.
Dreaming I see, I see your icon fall.
I have seen what will be.
Dreaming...... I see a land divine.
I have seen what will be...
