1. Darkness Prevails

Outcast, followed by a plague
A trail of misery is left under his name
Hopeless – Prisoner of a futile universe
Powerless – Alone to confront
the emptiness created from his own self
...until there is nothing left
but frustration and distress

(There is) no such thing as a miracle
The conception of luck is a fraud
In despair, awaits a savior that will simply never come

Failure and the fear to attain it
Corners the mind into a negative state
Defeatist, beaten before the war

Those dreams destroyed by misfortune
The cost of existence upon (such)fragile shoulders
Crushed under the weight of guilt
for terrible events who have yet...to happen

A simple law of cause and effect
Against the odds
Darkness prevails

The curse victorious...once again
A disease so furious...through its reign
Disaster (always) strikes at the worst time

Forever bound to perish
To be consumed by the void
...until there is nothing left
but frustration and distress...

Failure, a vicious trap
The sorrow is unbearable
Destiny, a fatal wrath
The abandon, unavoidable...

A simple law of cause and effect
Against the odds
Darkness prevails
The curse victorious...until the end

There is no such thing as a miracle
The conception of luck is a fraud

2. Wicked

Behold!
For the vision they embrace
And insanity
Shall the negation rise
And ourselves perish!
For it is said!

Reborn, just so to be
No method, no scheme
Shall the negation rise
And ourselves perish!
For it is written!

Then the machine walked
And the children cried
Over old warm stone
Shattered and half buried
Their bodies lay broken
Covered with dust aside road

Past revolutions
Dressed now of golden unity:
A great, somber, everlasting dye
Given liquid fake to slumber away...

And the children cried
Over old warm stone
Their body lay broken
Whirlwinds of dust
Erode their bones

Given liquid fake to slumber away...
Nature shall prove wrong history!

"Beware!
For revenge they owe you
And anger"

"Shall the righteous hearken the truth!
An epoch shut on itself
A future blurry and a past wrong
These are echoes from running times
And fate rings of a first round
Between despot and rogue
Struggling in their lust
Oblivion and mould..."

Behold!
For the vision they embrace
And insanity
Reborn, just so to be
No method, no scheme

Again soon her smile will crack
The face of the earth
For the machine walks
Paired the oceans
As a set of blue eyes
To swallow their tears
As horror stands up and laughs
Wicked!

3. Versus

Idol to many
Monument of strength and authority
Standing vehement
Rational behavior that inspires millions
Concrete statement
Glorious logic

Slowly appealed to the other side
Secretly seduced by the opposite

Versus
A conscience divided
Mentally overflowed
Versus
The structure suffers
Causing a rupture of identity

A simple purpose turned into obsession
Unconscious quest to attain liberation

The structure suffers
Overflowed with possibilities
Versus

It is imminent, reality clashes
Through the mirror, reflects the terror
The truth that lies beneath...

The difference between the light and the darkness
Obscure influence that blinds from the struggle

A choice of two evils, raging war, one against the other
With both paths painted in crimson colors

A violent contrast
The present versus the past
Those abstract images from the future
Confronts the real and the unpure

On the verge of extinction, at the limit of knowledge
All the principles of virtue are engulfed in a void
This unknown reaction, response to the pulse
Empowered by the fall
A total denial of convictions...

Is this all an illusion??
Is there even a solution???
Versus

4. Deviation Occurs

A vision propelled by thoughts
Fused by an ideal that defies reality
A constant fight to remain above
To leave this mark
Those scars to reshape history

Crystal perfect world
Symbol of power shattered in a second
Hidden abomination come to light
As a deviation occurs...

This palace built to fulfill and retain their supremacy
A fortress engineered to reign
But unable to resist temptation

Behold the great collapse
Ultimate chaos unleashed
The beauty of a paradise stained
Almighty prophet engages catastrophe

Blinded by time, praised by numbers
The empire is a techno-logical mockery

Crystal perfect world
Symbol of purity forever black
Poisoned by his own true nature
As a deviation occurs...

Rising from the dark
Absurd violent dreams
Emerging deviously
Like a psychic renaissance
Naive through storm
Compelled to destroy innocence

Blinded by time, praised by numbers
The entire empire is a mockery
Broken silence, socially awakened
The essence of truth through global discovery

Individual with perfect balance
Suddenly infected

5. The Thin Line Between

Enigma of a world untamed
To explore the boundaries of what is known to man
Searching for the balance, a road to a fate uncertain

Fragile equilibrium – Hidden in a subtle disguise
Perfectly crafted to appear solid – A divine mask of conformity

Rules applied in the past, centuries of deceit and masquerade
Has rendered humanity thoughtless, forbidden to evolve

Tormented by the question
A conscience trapped in a maze

The abyss lies before
A mystical vortex of infinite depth
At the edge of unreason
A knowledge blurred
Through a mysterious horizon

Face the obvious, the acceptance of the fact
This universe...devoid of answers
Face the obvious, the acceptance of the fact
The puzzle within, impossible to resolve

This fear of the unknown
Is common for every mortal
An ocean of contradictions
With every waves, darkens
Frozen at the bottom

Thirst for knowledge
Insatiable desire to comprehend
This quest for truth leads a path unsecure
Dangerously stands at the border of chaos

Paradox at the end of the equation
...The unbreakable wall
Paralysis after a lifetime of reflection
...An endless cycle
Inevitably returns to where it all begins

To stand in the middle
At the origin of the struggle
Where fiction surpasses reality
Enlighted by a dream
The idea that spawns the beast
The thin line between
Genius and maniacal

Enigma of a world untamed
To explore the boundaries of what is known to man
Searching for the balance, a road to a fate uncertain

Fragile equilibrium – Hidden in a subtle disguise
Perfectly crafted illusion to appear solid – A divine mask of conformity

Rules applied in the past, centuries of deceit and masquerade
Has rendered humanity thoughtless, forbidden to evolve

The abyss lies before
A mystical vortex of infinite depth
At the edge of unreason
A knowledge blurred
Through a mysterious horizon

Face the obvious...the acceptance of the fact
This universe, devoid of answers
The puzzle within, impossible to resolve

No words to explain...the splendor of eternity
No images to describe...the horror of infinity

This fear of the unknown
Is common for every soul
Afflicted by solitude
Desperate in the absence of certitude

Thirst for knowledge
Insatiable desire to comprehend
This quest for truth leads a path unsecure
Dangerously stands at the border of chaos

Paradox at the end of the equation
...The unbreakable wall
Paralysis after a lifetime of reflection
...An endless cycle
Inevitably returns to where it all begins

To stand in the middle
At the origin of the struggle
Where fiction surpasses reality
Enlightenment through a dream
The idea that spawns the beast
The thin line between

6. Dreaming The End

Climb the highest peak to consult the great mother
Golden temples are built to access a knowledge beyond

As sacrifice awakens voices from the sky
The beauty of a goddess illuminates those eyes

This is a link
Between nature and the spirit
This is a link
A guide which appears in multiple forms

Words of the wise that inspire the will of men
Ancient prophecies carved through the walls of time

Nightmares as a warning
Of the tragedy to come
Images of the land burning
Millions who suffer through these
Visions of terror
Misery foreseen

Panic at the throne
Blamed as an heretic
Whose theories stands
Defiant to the rules
Instincts against reason
Led into a path forbidden

Instincts against reason
Led into the wrong path
...the future is death

Dreaming the end
Where the world ceases to exist
Fade into a beautiful apocalypse
Ready for the final cleansing

At the last hour
Choices will be made
Destiny in the hands of the blind
Will condemn the fate of our kind

7. Standing Despite...

8. Oracle

Sacred allegories
Or mystic idol
Experience and honesty
Transcends the symbol
Global simplicity
Opens all meaning
Quiet individual
So awe-inspiring

Nothing is gained
No one is lost
A basic rule
One has to trust

Over bended men
Sat the tyrants
But now fate is vain
And lies silent

Over hardened hands
Grows up the world
Now senses proclaim
An oracle...

Venture some greed
Like a brassier glows
For certainties
No need of hope
But an antique meed
Promise of old
Sworn by an oak
And the wind blows...

Sacred allegories
Or mystic idol
Experience and honesty
Transcends the symbol
Global simplicity
Opens all meaning
Quiet individual
So awe-inspiring

amongst open minds
will bloom the world
for ones who dare listen
to the oracle inside...

9. Phoenix

The next level of commitment
Modern challenges to struggle upon
The next stage of dedication
Ambitious crusade that requires strength
And courage...

Destinies merge into one
Gathered by a single cause
Alliance of consciences
Duplicate the intelligence
The assembly of wisdom
Congregation of powers

Through the ashes of the past
A weapon rebuilt
Like a phoenix
Through the flames of devotion
An entity reborn
Like a phoenix eternal
Arises magnificent

All the elements unite to confront oblivion
Conquer the absolute in a radical sound
That echoes intensely through powerful waves
A disturbance of infinity (that) sets the kingdom ablaze

The will to heal and overcome
To improve and achieve perfection
The burning desire to rise
Explore and discover the truth

The next level of commitment
Modern challenges to struggle upon
The next stage of dedication

Like a phoenix eternal
Arises magnificent

The will to heal and overcome
To improve and achieve perfection
The burning desire to rise
Explore and discover the truth
To learn from the ancients rites
Break the barriers and evolve

10. The All And The Nothing

A vaporous dawn
Rises above the stormy night
Dark green plain, white steam covered
The mood is right for an insight

Here and now the light awaken
You capture the beams
or so reflect them

Flowing from and through your primal being
An invisible spectrum of colours stems

Length, breadth and depth
The body the soul the mind
Linked by a radical sign

As a string bent to perfect balance
Fundamental tone of exhaustive resonance
As a string bent to perfect balance
Vibrate the all and the nothing

However acumen, no language
Can embed or summarize the absolute

Thus root to the unknown
An intuitive equation...

However acumen, no language
Can embed or summarize the absolute

Thus root to the unknown
An intuitive equation
Which give infinite
An arcane value

The all and the nothing...

Fundamental tone of exhaustive resonance
