1. Calling From A Dream

Close your eyes
Listen to my call
Our bond will bring us together again

I will wait for you
For our hearts still beat as one

Gloom overshadows
The castle walls of stone
With dark ambiance

The vile plume of rotting death
Filling the wind as he unlocks the entry
To the kings boundless chamber

All is silent
As he discerns the unearthly dark shades
That stand over the sultan lifeless

Vibrance in their eyes
No longer apparent
Like steam the spirits rise towards the ceiling

His eyes are met
By the glowing gaze of the scorpioness
She descends the pillars to confront him face to face

Shrieking
"This land is now controlled
By the shadow king
Lord Tennebrus"

Her eyes burn red, piercing deep inside of his mind
Resonating, vibrating down his spine

Inside his head he sees the blackened armor of Lord Tennebrus
He is seated down on the throne

Seven spirits
Swarming around his head

In the midst of the trance
The arachnid beast slams her mighty claws
Crushing the stone flooring
Into a chasm of webs he plummets

The comforting caress of darkness
Brings with it the memory of love lost long ago
Close your eyes and listen to my call
Our bond will bring us together again

I will wait for you
For our hearts still beat as one
Listen to my calling from a dream

2. The Arcane Crystal

Dim is the hollow subterranean grotto in which he has awakened
In a network of webs reverberating the sound of distant legs

Blackened smoke entering his body, as he gasps for breath there is none

Every eve I call out to thee
Can you hear me screaming your name
Through every moon I call out to to you
Can you hear me screaming

Entering into the cavern, from darkness a shade approaches
Telling me his name is Azlahn "I can set you free but you must follow me
Volcanic stones are volatile" Azlahn says as he begins crumbling the stones of fire
He dust the webs with the burning particles

Burning away the binds that held his arms at bay
"Come this way" Azlahn says, leading him into the queens lair

"...And so we met again, and still you dare to face me
I posses power beyond comprehension
I will live forever"

Chasing him deep into the tunnels
The walls closing into a vein of volcanic ore
He hurls the stone of fire into the face of the scorpioness
The tunnel collapses encasing them in darkness
Blackened smoke entering his body, as he gasps for breath there is none

3. The Shore Of Rising Shadows

Power radiates from his enemy, who towers over him in blackened armor
The sun sets, receding light becomes crimson
The dark lord shouts at the sky
Surmonizing in dark tongues, his spell releases a massive quake
And from fissures arises his spawn
Flesh winged humanoids whom shriek in sync with their master
Overwhelmed he is brought to his knees

Angels bleed as they sing
A screeching choir summoning shades into the air
A demonic hymn, his vocal accompanied
Entranced by his melody, her eyes are empty

Your life ticks away with every moment
Join me in the dark realm to live eternally
Your life ticks away with every moment
Join me in the dark realm to live eternal

Power radiates from his enemy, who towers over him in blackened armor
The sun sets, receding light becomes crimson
The dark lord shouts at the sky

Surmonizing
Join me, enter the dark realm
For eternity we'll pull the strings of existence
Come and join me, enter the dark realm
For eternity we'll reap the souls of humanity
Join me, enter the dark realm
For eternity we'll pull the strings of existence

4. Pulse Of The Mountain's Heart

Azlahn guides me into the heart of the mountain

Azlahn guides me through the many wormholes Saraph created

Magma pulsating in his gaze lights the chamber
The guardian of the flame has awakened
Saraph the sanguine serpent of flame

The guardian of the flame awakens growing from the beating heart of the mountain

I am saraph of the seven who created this planet
we have existed since the beginning and together birthed the souls of man

Arise from the ashes, arise from the cavern where souls burn
Transcend the pain it is not your fate

Your eyes confess your past deeds in bias your minds blinded
you are the cause of the devils rising and only you can destroy the dark one

Let the living flame take you into the sky like a feather in the wind

Everything halts as suddenly iron footsteps approach from behind
A knights blade grinds against the stone dragging it on his approach

The monks of flame watch without concern, praying to Saraph,
they conjure their souls into the air staring at the burning one

While humming the song of flame
Summoning burning rain
from above the heavens weep
Sulfur
Turning to ash as it touches their flesh
their skin petrifies

Everything halts as suddenly iron footsteps approach from behind
a knights blade grinds against the stone dragging it as he approaches.

Heat emits from him his armor glows their eyes meet and now they both know that one has to die

5. Upon Whirling Winds

Inanimate, like men of stone they look upon the burning one
(The burning one, they look upon)
Motionless they meditate, while humming the song of the flame
(The song of flame will carry them into the whirling winds)
Channeling their energies, their souls in the air are spiraling
(Spiraling, they intertwine)
Emotionless they gaze at them, Fixated upon the burning one
(The burning one, they look upon
Binding their souls as one)

Upon whirling winds the living flame grows

The knight can see that he has now been consumed by power
Power brings a rage, fueled by the hatred in his dreams
Hatred deep inside, unlocking deep within his spirit
The rage within his heart will now manifest it's malevolence

The molten blade swings
At his neck his skin is unbroken, his poise cannot be taken from him
The knight is shaken as he recoils
The mountain's heart grows with his fury
He grasps the helm of his enemy, removing it to find himself inside
Staring him in the eyes
"Why can't you see that we are one in the same?
By destroying me you will embody our reign"

He drags the burning knight into the mountain's heart
Casting him into the fire

Upon whirling winds the living flame grows

Deep inside he knows he's been transformed by the night

The living flame consumes him
Pressure in the chamber fires him into the sky

6. Dreaming Of The New Beginnings

Somewhere beyond the shadows
Somewhere beyond the blackened sky i hear her voice
Calling from my dreams

Far away beyond the sea, beyond this realm i'll wait

There is a place beyond the fire
The flaming hand of the god never touches down
Beyond the horizon
There is a place beyond the fire
The flaming hand of the god never touches down
In a far away land

Beyond the sea, beyond the sky, beyond the veil
Another world resides
Somewhere beyond the horizon you'll find me there
I'll wait forever

In my broken dreams i see the faces that have gone
I see the ones who've destroyed my life
Hatred consumes and darkness prevails
A veil between his heart and in his mind

Beyond the sea, beyond the sky,
Beyond the veil another world resides
Inside of his mind

7. Beneath The Mist

Dreams of the promised land fades, leaving
Only pain, the memory grinds at his conscious
He's bounded in paralysis, surrounded by blackened forms
Of the dead, from down below he stares at the sky
Beneath the mist the night overtakes
Washing away, leaving only pain,
The memory grinds at his conscious
He's bounded in paralysis, surrounded by blackened forms
Of the dead, from down below he stares at the sky
Beneath the mist the night overtakes
Washing away the essence of light

Light piercing through the shadow becomes dim
The dream fades as his eyes open

Harrowing winds graze across his face
His eyes are open, awakening beneath the mist
Of a far away land
His body blackened and burned
Erupted from volcanic fire and thrown into the sea
A stellar light through the veil
His eyes are open, awakening beneath the mist

Bleeding as he draws near, an assemblage of ancient priests
Surmonizing, they utter in tongues. staring back at him

Gouging veins, they feast upon the blood spilling from their wrists
Crimson blooming, they paint the ground in demonic emblems
His mind trapped inside the vortex of blood

Crawling forth from a burning nest
The dark lord emerges to the surface

Slithering upon his abdomen, he is
Bounded in paralysis, in front of the darkened king
Of the dead, from down below he stares at the sky
Beneath the mist the night overtakes
Washing away, leaving only pain

Beneath the mist the night overtakes
Washing away the essence of light

Light piercing through the shadow becomes dim
The dream fades as his eyes open

Harrowing winds graze across his face
His eyes are open, awakening beneath the mist
Of a far away land
His body blackened and burned
Erupted from volcanic fire and thrown into the sea
A stellar light through the veil
His eyes are open, awakening beneath the mist

8. Falling Into Malice

The Essence of light is no longer with him
The darkness has binded inside of his mind
The demons plague in the depths of his soul
Unconsciously continuing with ill intent

The Essence of light is no longer with him
The darkness has binded inside of his mind
The demons plague in the depths of his soul
Unconsciously continuing with ill intent

The blood of priests, as it spills outward
Into the sea, opening a portal

He steps inside the darkened realm
Where he is met by the shadow king
From his dreams, everything fades away

This domain welcomes thee with honor, for you are it's king
I was born from within your heart upon the death of your firstborn son
And at the passing of your eternal love
It was in their memory that you brought the end of things

Thrust the blade into my neck, be done with this

The Essence of light is no longer with him
The darkness has binded inside of his mind
The demons plague in the depths of his soul
Unconsciously continuing with ill intent

The Essence of light is no longer with him
The darkness has binded inside of his mind
The demons plague in the depths of his soul
Unconsciously continuing with ill intent

9. Burial At Sea

Close your eyes and listen to my call
Our bond will bring us together again

I will wait for you
My soul sleeps in the ocean
From the mountain, fall into my arms

Her voice beckoning to me
Calling toward the black ocean
The perilous cliffs I will traverse

Transfixed upon the image of a delusional mirage
Projecting onto the cliffside
Transfixed upon the image of a delusional mirage
As he plummets into the sea

Close your eyes and listen to my call
Our bond will bring us together again
