The War to Shine 04:32
lyrics
buy track
Back from the Abyss The world was freezing False prophets appeared Nations were born and fell The overlying rain of anguish reigns in the summer The stifling snow of despair envelops the winter The waters of the seas are grey like the reflected skies The burning energy of the ancient tombs has ended All in all in this system Are You set to pray? Are You in or out? Predator or prey? All divided by this schism All is in this fray How loud is Your shout? When the emptiness looms, They start, burning slaves The War to Shine There was the day of the great deafening dissonance As with synaesthesia, the ears opened their eyes What a shock and change to every corner of the world That sound became the blinding shine of the tyrants All in all in this system Are You set to pray? Are You in or out? Predator or prey? All divided by this schism All is in this fray How loud is Your shout? When the emptiness looms, They start, burning slaves Science, politics, cults All bewitched by the ancient dark blood The War to Shine The value of gold and silver is the same as mud As the spilled blood is an echo in the void The ancient scars of the earth were suddenly opened wide Hurling the old world into the chaos of fear All in all in this system Are You set to pray? Are You in or out? Predator or prey? All divided by this schism All is in this fray How loud is Your shout? When the emptiness looms, They start, burning slaves Science, politics, cults All bewitched by the ancient dark blood Science, politics, cults Chained by the starving flesh The bewitching flames The deceived moths Nothing will remain from the frail old world The faceless ones will vanish like old regrets The War to Shine

Inevitable Collapse 05:22
lyrics
buy track
I am the one Who is called "Disciple of the Sun" Ascended from the Abyss, learned the knowledge I saw the immense structures of Unlife I learned from the ancient Dark Blood From the old guard, balancer of the extremes The right hand of the Father of Arts Now forgotten by centuries of exile The unnamable change of ages of humans In the most distant depths Where light cannot reach Nothing made more sense And Our senses were lying to Us The past was so confused And all Our progress, so ridiculous We bleed the world For Our emptiness I found a new way of existence I saw Myself with ancient eyes I felt heaviness and consistence My soul embraced in its cries So, another mission was on Me Find the lost children of sinners When I arrived at the second furious giant I found Them corrupted by something That was originated by Dark Blood Insanity and fear never left Them Fear of dying and inability of reason But unable to die, condemned to suffer All this for progress A new terrible technology Developed on Dark Blood A perpetual unstable nucleus That generates infinite energy Which needs to be dried up In an inflexible constancy The disaster in the first error I found a new way of existence I saw Myself with ancient eyes I felt heaviness and consistence My soul embraced in its cries

Obsidian Tower 05:28
lyrics
buy track
The great capital of the north Rise above all power and thought In its core, the great Obsidian Tower Central pillar, symbol of domination The beating heart of infinite energy The cradle of the impiety of command No one dared to oppose its power An independent nation without rivals With arrogance, They raised to the heavens Its fall will shake the Earth violently It will throw Its subjects into chaos The great explosion will start a new era Humanity will be divided In two races for the first time The colossus, idol of pride Will be the cage of a new kind The great Obsidian Tower will fall to ashes The great capital will become the cage of terror Where the chaos of fear and pain will reign But the science of evil will never stop persevering The explosion dyed the air and the water The energy pierced every single atom The blackened trees seem like petrified They do not stop growing, they wrapped everything Most of the living died in an instant Only humans survived, but changed Their skin became pale; Their blood, black Fear and insanity dominate Their minds Anything could kill Them The mortal wounds push Them Into deep sleep of regeneration And endlessly They come back The great Obsidian Tower will fall to ashes The great capital will become the cage of terror Where the chaos of fear and pain will reign But the science of evil will never stop persevering

Pale Walkers 04:38
lyrics
buy track
During the long journey to come back home I studied the pale walkers, corrupt beings Their body feels in constant danger and disease Every cell seems to be a universe in itself But They think and act in unison Exposure to that energy has corrupted Them Rendered as immortal, but chained to fear In the illusion of always being dying The pale walkers scream in pain Despair dominates Their minds There must be a cure to stabilize This disharmony between Their cells Thousands of humans have been lost In that huge explosion of the tower Now They are caged as exiles I have to find the cure before the end The body is constantly regenerating They vomit everything in excess, constantly Black liquid expelled becomes like ashes Like a grey and sterile pile of dust The skin forms on the skin, They become blind They rip with Their nails, tear with Their teeth Hostile to everyone, scared of everything Rationality is dead, lost in the emptiness of pain The pale walkers scream in pain Despair dominates Their minds There must be a cure to stabilize This disharmony between Their cells Thousands of humans have been lost In that huge explosion of the tower Now They are caged as exiles I have to find the cure before the end

Dead World Spoils 04:47
lyrics
buy track
Words spoken in the darkness of the Abyss Enveloped the light of the structures Of the spark of the ancient dark Unlife Cryptic and poetic tales of an imminent future The ancient told me about the lost man's children Children lost in the darkness of fear and pain There would be a new industrial revolution That would bring destruction and separation Decipher the words of the past Strip reality from the veil of limit It transcends human constraints Break the chains of the tyrants I crossed the hidden gates of the cage of terror There were the remains of the old capital glory A monument to the shame of the arrogant human Who craved immortality with a reckless haste Its huge structures wrapped and pierced by grey trees The streets were submerged by the incessant rain The thick dome of clouds obscured the Sun Turning all the colors and vanishing their nuances Decipher the words of the past Strip reality from the veil of limit It transcends human constraints Break the chains of the tyrants Dead World Spoils Monochromatic terror Oppression of fear Draining pain without end

Chant of Blood 05:07
lyrics
buy track
There is a constant chant, a harrowing lament A dissonant song that echoes between the structures Even from the depths, I can feel vibration A disturbing, incessant and oppressive chorus And then I saw Them, the pale walkers With Their black eyes, They are constantly looking Where the danger is, the origin of Their terror Every single cell is afraid of dying, always The howls of the wounded wolf The cries of the grieving crow A scorpion in a ring of fire Condemned to eternal pain There is no easy way to save Them from this I have to act with deception and then with force Bring one of Them to my place in the underground Remembering the words of the ancient being What has been said in the depths of the Abyss Interpret His non-human transcendental words He spoke of a dance among the elements A song of atoms in disharmony between them The howls of the wounded wolf The cries of the grieving crow A scorpion in a ring of fire Condemned to eternal pain

Cold Crawlers 05:11
lyrics
buy track
In the end, I found Myself at the roots of the great obsidian tower Inexplicably, the explosion of the core of perpetual energy Had left everything intact, like a grey ghost town Permeated by the constant soundtrack of the pale shadows Like a blade stuck in the ground that extends to the heaven Passing through the clouds of eternal winter Dominating over a dead and forgotten reign Once a nucleus of life, now a crown of death Do not forget Your vow Stay cold and concentrated Let Your heart burns with science Forget hatred and fear, never fall Here, there were the crawlers, sentinels with a single purpose Like mechanical spiders exterminators without emotions With the same perpetual and unstable energy core They scrutinize, search and destroy everything that moves Stay hidden, be cold, fear will be Your condemnation Their sharp paws will search for You everywhere They will reduce every single molecule to ashes Until the end of every will of power Do not forget Your vow Stay cold and concentrated Let Your heart burns with science Forget hatred and fear, never fall
