1. Leaving Solitude

Stuck in isolation
From the bottom I must rise

What went wrong, what could I've done?
I was blinded by my self-contempt

Leaving this world, leaving everything I ever knew
There was love and hatred, joy and sorrow, but always pain
Leaving solitude, restrain my inner fear, my only choice

Lost like a stray dog
Who shall guide me on my path?

No one else but me
Now I take the step, what have I to lose?

Leaving this world, leaving everything I ever knew
There was love and hatred, joy and sorrow, but always pain
Leaving solitude, restrain my inner fear, my only choice

Leaving this world, leaving everything I ever knew
There was love and hatred, joy and sorrow, but always pain
Leaving this world, leaving everything I ever knew
There was love and hatred, joy and sorrow, but always pain
Leaving solitude, restrain my inner fear, my only choice

2. You Betrayed Me

Carrier of my charging minions
You should stand by my side
You've proven yourself worthy at many occasions
Holding hard on my line

You betrayed me when I needed you the most
Never have I ever let you down
Forcing me to face this shameful scene alone
Pathetic little useless worm

How dare you to defy my orders?
Hold the lines and advance
A stab in the back you spineless deserter
Hiding safe in your cave

You betrayed me when I needed you the most
Never have I ever let you down
Forcing me to face this shameful scene alone
Pathetic little useless worm

Victorious and as one
Together our armies shall storm the dark ravines
United and side by side
I gave you my blood but with empty hands I stand

Victorious and as one
Together our armies shall storm the dark ravines
United and side by side
I gave you my blood but with empty hands I stand

You betrayed me when I needed you the most
Never have I ever let you down
Forcing me to face this shameful scene alone
Pathetic little useless worm

3. Soulless

It's the outcome of vile seduction
There's a shadow that looms over me
So desire has sealed my future
I'm Mephisto's slave

Consuming me
And it burns inside
And insanity feels this way

In a world where wisdom is power
I'm constantly searching for more
In my efforts to reach perfection
I have sold my soul

Insanity, burns in me
Pay the price you offered
Soulless

The inferno of the underworld
Dominions where darkness rules
The million minions of Beelzebub
Consuming me from within

Now my spirit is doomed to submission
By a covenant that's signed with my blood
Sold out for earthly pleasures
In the end enslaved

Insanity feels this way
Soulless

The inferno of the underworld
Dominions where darkness rules
The million minions of Beelzebub
Consuming me from within

The inferno of the underworld
Dominions where darkness rules
The million minions of Beelzebub
Consuming me from within

4. Through The Desert Storm

Burning my skin I can't go on, the end is near.
Sand is my hearse, vultures circle the sky

On dunes in the distance silhouettes of saviours rise
From this hell triumph comes
Sargon lead us

Through the desert storm we will ride our way to the Pharao
We shall claim their throne
Egypt fear the dawn

Hooves shake the earth as we ride, no return
Glorious we'll stand when the night turns to day

In the horizon tombs of the kings appear
Chariots, lead the way
Legions charge!

Through the desert storm we will ride our way to the Pharao
We shall claim their throne
Egypt fear the dawn
Through the desert storm we will ride our way to the Pharao
We shall claim their throne
Egypt fear the dawn

War rages on, spare no soul
The Nile is red

Triumph and victory, battlefields lay desolate
Fallen is Pharao
A new king rises

Through the desert storm we will ride our way to the Pharao
We shall claim their throne
Egypt fear the dawn
Through the desert storm we will ride our way to the Pharao
We shall claim their throne
Egypt fear the dawn

5. The Dark Era

Unity fades, look at the world
We are divided
The ancient laws possessing us
Blackened horizon

A blood red sunrise and all hope is lost
Vast dominions of evil

Divinity justify war
Hell breaking loose

When the chaos ends and all is over
There will be no one to save our souls
From the ashes rise a new world order
Pain and misery, the dark era rise

When the chaos ends and all is over
There will be no one to save our souls
From the ashes rise a new world order
Pain and misery, the dark era rise

Living by words taught by a man
Dead for millennias
Oh, can't you see how it will end?
Total devastation

A blood red sunrise and all hope is lost
Vast dominions of evil

When the chaos ends and all is over
There will be no one to save our souls
From the ashes rise a new world order
Pain and misery, the dark era rise

6. I'm Alive

The skies have darkened over me
This is my final chapter
Never knew that I would feel this way
Facing the end of it all

But still I breathe, and still I feel
You must encourage me
One last goodbye, one teardrop falls
Now hear me calling

The ending draws near
Yet the final page remains
Come, join my side
Until Kronos takes his toll, I'm alive

No inhibitions keep me down
I'm leaving this pain and suffering
Head on a journey through the lands
Alive more than ever

The ending draws near
Yet the final page remains
Come, join my side
Until Kronos takes his toll, I'm alive

On distant shores, the evening sun
Embrace my tired limbs.
One final breath, I leave this world
Ashes to ashes

The ending draws near
Yet the final page remains
Come, join my side
Until Kronos takes his toll, I'm alive

The ending draws near
Yet the final page remains
Come, join my side
Until Kronos takes his toll, I'm alive

7. Room 101

Trapped in this misery
There's no escape, no hope

They've clouded our minds
Controlling our thoughts
What have we become, what?

Somber walls surrounding me
In room 101 I face my fear

Sold out my only love
My life is useless now

They govern our lives
Controlling our thoughts
What have we become, what?

Somber walls surrounding me
In room 101 I face my fear

Somber walls surrounding me
In room 101 I face my fear
He is my shepherd and my emperor.
In room 101 my story ends

8. Different Stories

For twenty thousand years
The search for answers has been on
And some have come to think that they have found one

They're convinced that their religion is the one
Possessing all the answers and everyone else has failed

Humble priests why are you the chosen ones?
Can it be true that the rest is doomed?
Are we unrighteous, all of us that are not enlightened?
What is the price I must pay for that bliss?

I will never regret my view of life
It's impossible to choose

Don't you come to me and tell me that you know
So have many done and all of them tell different stories
Mortals how are we supposed to choose?
If there's thousand gods
What separates the right from all the other ones?

Marduk and Ra
The ancient gods from dawn of man
Who pays respect to them? Neglected superstition

What's different now? Is everything not just the same?
Though everything progress gods still haunt us

Don't you come to me and tell me that you know
So have many done and all of them tell different stories
Mortals how are we supposed to choose?
If there's thousand gods
What separates the right from all the other ones?

It is my claim, my belief, that we cannot know
Many are those who are greater than I
Still they don't seem to agree and it puzzles me
Shouldn't the wise admit to one faith?

Don't you come to me and tell me that you know
So have many done and all of them tell different stories
Mortals how are we supposed to choose?
If there's thousand gods
What separates the right from all the other ones?

For twenty thousand years
The search for answers has been on
And I have come to find that we are let down and left alone

9. Bloodred Sails

Roaming the docks, this moment I've dreamt of all my life
Oceans roaring my name, this is my fate
Weigh anchor, set sail
The ship soon embarks, the harbour fades
Soon we're under attack, pirates by our side

They are merciless, I must flee from this chaos to live
I shall seek revenge, they all must die

In the night, the thunderous sounds
Of my dreams blowing up in the air.
The last image I see
Is the ship with the blood red sails

Floating ashore, I wake as the sunlight burns my neck
Marooned, deserted am I. This island is my cage
Days turn to weeks
The fires I light are pointless
No one comes to my aid, seasons come and go

But one autumn day, as I sit in the sunset alone
There, a ship appears in the distant sea

In the night, the thunderous sounds
Of my dreams blowing up in the air.
The last image I see
Is the ship with the blood red sails

In the night, the thunderous sounds
Of my dreams blowing up in the air.
The last image I see
Is the ship with the blood red sails

In the night, the thunderous sounds
Of my dreams blowing up in the air.
Five years, imprisoned I've been
At last they will take me away

In the night, the thunderous sounds
Of my dreams blowing up in the air.
In fear, I suddenly see
It's the ship with the blood red sails

In the night, the thunderous sounds
Of my dreams blowing up in the air.
The last image I see
Is the ship with the blood red sails

10. Solemn Waters

From outside I hear the grim cold sea
In this abyss we've descended

No one answers our desperate calls
800 feet below surface

We're trapped inside for weeks for months for years
Set us free

Where no daylight reach we're marooned in solemn waters
Losing track of time, everlasting night
Have no memories of the world outside this prison
Steel that shielded us is our tomb

The air ran out so many years ago
There is no way we're alive

Still we go on, walking dead we are
Set us free

Where no daylight reach we're marooned in solemn waters
Losing track of time, everlasting night
Have no memories of the world outside this prison
Steel that shielded us is our tomb

Where have you gone?
I can't move on until I know
Lost, left me here
Alone... Alone

Where no daylight reach we're marooned in solemn waters
Losing track of time, everlasting night
Have no memories of the world outside this prison
Steel that shielded us is our tomb
