Around me they circle Emerald tones of past and present Oaken beings stand tall The sturdy mounds of granite surround us all Sapphire glowing above Bask in the glory of our mother She protects us ever still and so we shall reciprocate for without her glory we are but lost souls on a journey to nothingness Oh mother, hear our call We summon you to show us the way For we are lost in the wilderness Within us, we bear the torch The virtues of our matriarch Embedded in our every being To be awakened She is eternal After the eras of our occupation we shall soon wither And you shall so beautifully remain... |

1. | Bound by Blood | 06:40 | Show lyrics |
Dark dominion Not a speck of light in sight Feverish and fatigued I walk Searching for that glimmer of hope Am I destined to find that which I seek? I follow the path laid out in front of me I follow... To who am I so bound? Where is this free will that eludes me now? To who am I so bound? Where is my free will? It eludes me now... Blinded ever still I attempt to claw my way out of this dark abyss The precocious arcane knowledge that I possess feels drained And alien to me now Soon enough I will find you I gather strength and release a flash of light Revealing the soul of the darkness It shows the way and a figure stands before me All along you were present within me Ages ago you vanished Uncertainty, confusion, hatred, relief You shall not escape again Staring down at torment itself I reveal all that plagued my soul My hatred resurfaces A sinister wave of energy emits from me Haunting memories, I shall not back down...I unleash Here you found your final resting place. |

3. | Aeons of Valor | 07:58 | Show lyrics |
At the top of the hill, a legion of the unknown gathers We stare into each others souls with malicious intent All on the line, we charge As it rages, seeming unlikely to cease They all clash, knowing their fates Arcane waves of energy flow through the air Steel dips itself in blood Here they all shall die with honour The landscape now painted crimson The sanguine liquid caressing the ground No sign of sheathing, it rages on Dusk approaches, limbs now ache Death yearning to embrace our souls Sons of the earth wage in a battle for the honour of ancients The gods look down on us and smile with satisfaction Songs will be sung around embers Whispers in the night will accompany our feats Moon light comforting our trek away from home Stories told of all odysseys in the wake of victory For it shall be told Here, in faraway lands Blood was split Fight with honour, they said Die with dignity Fate approaches blindly Bound by blood Through the endless night They send us off To meet our gods. |

4. | The Pale Host | 04:31 | Show lyrics |
Beneath these hills there runs a stream A blood-red course where dead men dream In winter’s cold, their ghosts I see Their Pale Host ever follows me Their pyres burned high, their arms they gleamed And now they lie in Glory’s sleep And though I lived, the light to see The Pale Host still walks beside me They wander far, grey banners high Though ‘neath these hills their bones still lie Long through the mists and wilds they roam But the Pale Host never will march home. |

5. | Homeward | 09:14 | Show lyrics |
The dust settles Tumultuous feeling, we rise Walk the fields in search of our own Lifeless many lay So many slain Our enemies quaked in fear Our swords drove strong Barren fields now covered in blood The battle cry resounded throughout these lands Weary, we retrieve them all Prepare them for their journey Onwards to eternity we send them off Into the hands of the gods We now march back to those we love We sheathe our weapons and begin our journey homeward Battered, our feet rest firmly in the soil We look upon the stars, pondering Green pastures over the horizon, awaiting Soon it shall come to pass Destiny encompasses Broken and battered souls carried away by the wind Oh, Greatness The smell of blood no longer lingers Onward to reward, pursuits of bliss Lifelong time of battles cease forever It creeps over the bend We see... Oh, greatness It creeps over the bend We see, we yearn, we deserve I fall to my knees Lash out a cry of contentment Home is where I shall dwell Battles waged for years and years Here I shall rest until my dying day |

6. | Trails of the Earth | 07:42 | Show lyrics |
Through the peaks and valleys, oceans, and fields This wondrous habitat thrives Serenity infects the skies Peaceful as the evening clouds cry And as amber rises at dawn We reflect as if all is gone The tides turn, the winds sway And as it all rests on the drip of the hourglass It shall renew itself and restore balance Serenity infects the skies Peaceful as the evening clouds cry And as amber rises at dawn We reflect as if all is gone The tides turn, the winds sway And as it all rests on the drip of the hourglass It shall renew itself and restore balance The earth roars with tremendous might The power of its rumble, a flame ignites Rejoicing in rays Dampen my being Sift through endless moss, a feeling so fleeting To be regained once more Through the ages, nature tore... |

7. | Empires of Ash | 12:32 | Show lyrics |
On these frostbitten plains I await A withering realm, a mere shadow of its former self Dilapidated and lonely We chose to fight for a cause Honour, pride, dignity, and love Through the passage of time, it became exposed Attempting to reclaim what was never ours From the pebbles that dance in the rivers To the leaves that glide in the wind The rays that warm the pastures And the rain that spawns new life We were once one Now blinded by selfish deceit Drifting further and further away We were once one Now blinded by selfish deceit We drift further away Through ashes of our once great host Travel through continents to lands unknown Yet we witness faceless clones of our adopted reality Transcendence non-existent The final bell begins to toll Far from redemption We slowly burn all scrolls Extinction, we beseech Anguished, I tread Wondering why? Watching all die Empires of Ash, cry! From the pebbles that dance in the rivers To the leaves that glide in the wind The rays that warm the pastures And the rain that spawns new life No longer shall we rise above our failures No longer shall we chant The end is nigh We interred our kingdom... |

Leave the halls and caverns deep Were the forests wide and dim Stoops in shadow grey and grim Float beyond the world of trees Past the rushes, past the reeds Past the marshes, weaving weeds By the crowns of the seven kings and the rods of the five wizards South away! South away now! Far away seek the sunlight and the day Hail, Éomer Hail, King of the Mark |

1. | Winter’s Slumber | 07:39 | Show lyrics |
This eternal white as far as the eye can see Remnants of eras long forgotten Memories faded into the depths of mystery Can I recover them? I raise my head and breathe in deep Words of the old ones fall to me As snow on the mountain I know this is how it should be The long sleep of winter This eternal white as far as the eye can see Remnants of eras long forgotten Memories faded into the depths of mystery Can I recover them? I raise my head, so far I see Tranquillity... The lake of death Grasping the purity within I shall rise, if not for long To wither here in my final place of peace No better place to glare upon one last time I smile, I cry I blissfully let go “The woods are lovely, dark and deep But I have promises to keep And miles to go before I sleep.” Excerpt from the Robert Frost (1874-1963) poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” |

2. | Titan | 06:30 | Show lyrics |
Nothing will ever be the same again These valleys forsaken now This distant roar like a whisper On the blooded horizon Mother of this world Your tears burn my skin And the scars shall open my eyes Cold are the spaces between the stars But death is just a waking dream We’re all wanderers in dust With all the ruin I’ve seen I still wonder about life Standing fearless As I realize the end Lift me up above this universe of glass Where sorrow no longer Encircles the blossoming fields Thus I’m banished to the hell of others To shatter this burden I’ll carry the weight To the point of Hedonism I shall revel in disgrace Only to be born again We were here to caress the void Of the dying serpent sun Winter tears my guilt apart Spread across the heavens And dim is the veil Crashing down |

3. | Ode to the Sovereign | 07:15 | Show lyrics |
The Sovereign The roots set in And as I fix my gaze upon you I see beauty and pain Shadows encircle these long lost grasps Oh, Mother, what have we done? Mere beasts we have become We have forgotten our stance In somber storms you dance From your path we have strayed Misguided and treacherous, we remain. Long since we knew Whether we could stop ourselves A bargain made with faceless gods Of gain and progress To you we call That you might reclaim us Consign us to your realm Or we will surely fall. The roots set in I see beauty and pain Shadows encircle Ode to the Sovereign. |

4. | An Oath Sworn in Sorrow | 06:16 | Show lyrics |
Draw your sword Look me in the eyes We were born for this moment But the memories cloud my mind Of all that we have done I swore I would protect you But what have you become? From the moment our hearts began beating This gap would be filled Preordained assassination of the crippled mind Lost in an ancient sea of time As whirlwinds dance on paths once trod By beings vast, alone we stood And waited for it all to end Could you not see? You were always there by my side The comfort of my very being The monster you are has me blind I want to let you walk away but I boil inside For your faults you shall fall Reluctant beating slows you to a crawl The whistling sound of steel Sliding against your dry flesh Proved to be my final and ultimate test As the blade retracts so too do my tears fall Heavily, I sob I’ll always wear you on my sleeve A reminder of my undying love for you Until my dying day, I’ll carry your memory Within the walls of my mind, you live forever on |

5. | Our Bones Among the Ruins | 05:21 | Show lyrics |
A premonition of horrors awakens me from slumber A darkened reality eaten by entities unrecognizable What did I just see? Sweat trickles Through these dense and lively forests I walk Yearning to discover what it was This beautiful golden stream of life I mustn’t walk too far in Obtaining cognizance is my only option Turn around, flee In time the grey smoke would surround Screams of agony Thick as fog at dawn but yet so shallow What energy shall I muster? My exertions are futile In shadows you have prevailed Your only door left open is that of defeat You have plagued for far too long I cannot allow you to leave I carry the key to the lock of the netherworld A realm lost to space and time Here is where you will dwell and relinquish your claim To the stranglehold you so fiercely grasp You forever withdraw to the blackness of inanimate existence Yet with peace restored... The brightest light casts the darkest shadows |

6. | Where Lost Hope Lies | 09:53 | Show lyrics |
Through the endless shadows we turn Amongst the fires of the past we burn For the sake of the child we fend Yet unto an unknown will, we bend For these flames that urge to caress our skin Wears us down much too thin To the highest mountain I shall walk Through fields uncertain Where I fought There rises unbeknownst a cry Culpability smiles Seething and keeping watch Once again it is all my fault I must evade lest they hear These struggles brought in agony The starlit smouldering sky Where arrows burn in flight There remains yet a flicker of hope for you Awaken, set forth and persist Born out of despair, flames, and grief This power grows ever so greatly within me For there is no place left to hide For the anger in me won’t subside My eyes have much to tell And your empty stare will lead us into your hell For I always knew you were already gone Every passing day it is you I miss My final message to you is this From the sorrow and rage, I desist Unrequited, I no longer exist... |

7. | The Shadowed Road | 08:35 | Show lyrics |
If I could choose my way I’d never leave this place This forest dreams in greens and golds I’ll never see again But I hear the quiet call A portent drifting dark and cold For the road ahead is shadowed And there ruin waits untold But I will not turn away I roam this bloodstained road Through the mountain paths to the gates of bone I swear by the grey boundless sea One day I will return But my home is corrupted and all gods to fall The forest will burn So I’ll leave on the path I must take Crushing fate, I’ll never forget That hope is as dim as ghosts In the dens of their hosts I’ll hold to it Beneath this crumbling world I saw A truth as dark as a thousand unseen winters Our doom was written in our souls But I will claim it as my own I once dreamed of a place Where all things of old stories dwell I longed for it, now I see That where there walk dreams Nightmares linger as well This is my road, through wandering shades For the promise I made Through hidden vales All the shapes that haunt us I will contend The road has burned my world away Did I think to come this far unchanged? But I feel a sense of clarity I’ve never known before That with death so close behind me I can see the bitter dawn Into the plains of ash I’ll leave the world that was behind Though I walk into the dark I walk at last with open eyes Behold my empire The ruinscape The broken bonds that held us I wonder how I came this far Through terrors dread The road won’t destroy me I’ll follow where it leads The truth is ever near Look into the dark If you will look into the dark Ever will I walk upon this shadowed road This ravaged path where phantoms roam For if all things must end I’d walk among the ashes of the dawning shadowed world |

1. | The Monolith | 05:55 | Show lyrics |
Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? How I long to be real To know the endless truth that mountains know Must I end to feel such timeless peace? For there is none in the grey Only masks, only words without meaning Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? They showed me their truth A concrete monolith that cast no shadow But slowly I see the intangible is uncorrupted I’ll leave this place To walk in worlds that never were To mourn what never was For only this is real Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? Behold with sleepless eyes Beyond the grey An echo rings A whispered dream The truth beyond the real is everything |

2. | Eulogy for the Lost | 07:49 | Show lyrics |
In this desolate cold world, I am forsaken I stand alone in the depths of despair A hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time Forbidden realm of dreams Will I ever become one with such place? Starlit skies smile upon me Seeping matter pulsates Beneath dark soil I awaken A sacred rite From which I rise As the suns rays die And my wings no longer fly Desperate I flail in the nothingness Held down, anxious, with no breath Consciousness fades away All light disappearing as day shall never break The opportunity has come and gone Feelings of bliss see no dawn Forthcoming displeasures so great Here, I meet my fate Beneath dark soil I awaken A sacred rite From which I rise The turning season To return The dark is waiting I. Shall. Perish. |

3. | The Apocalyptic Theater | 06:34 | Show lyrics |
The curtain falls Desolation and decay enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Somehow, a strange beauty gleams The forceful descent slowly dawns No caress to fall upon This hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time We reach out and what do we find? Not a whisper in the wind A slither in the cracks, Not a soul on this plain Tears of the Earth begin to rain The tears of the earth Desolation enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Failure, to fulfil our dreams Sorrow, our hopes recede Hatred, seemed our only path Shadows, will ever last Newborn rivers begin to flow An elusive story never to be told Into oblivion we fade For the monumental mistakes we made Now, the curtains, they rise Forevermore, we watch with lifeless eyes |

4. | Talas | 04:35 | Show lyrics |
Sight returns Before cruel thought There’s such grief in waking I long to drift unknowing here But memory soon Breaks me anew Again that dreadful whisper It moves across the drowning tide I hide in broken towers But still it knows all that I’ve done Will I become this darkness? Will I forget all that I was? Only you There’s only you Now the ghosts drifting forward In the dark of the void But I do not stand alone As I ever have before And I hear the words resound In your voice, “take my hand” No, I do not stand alone As I ever have before And I hear the words resound In your voice, “take my hand” No, I do not stand alone as I ever have before Here we stand at the heart Of this hopeless world of chaos No we do not stand alone As we ever have before |

5. | Fatal Frame | 08:35 | Show lyrics |
The lingering scent of a dying dream Fulfilment of damnation from aeons past The promise once broken to be kept encaged in a prison of lies Unjustly until we meet our demise This crimson scar will never bloom A bloodstained tear takes the plunge from your face Madness seeps from your mind as you slash through this realm Despair, hatred and sadness corrode your reason The mourning dawn shall remain out of sight The pain refuses to subside All those years lonely because I failed you Never again! The caress of the dark and the daggers that wound Faithful to none but the endless void beneath Piece by piece, our souls break down into shards of glass Do not forget me and as the roots take hold, don’t let go! It constricts and chokes the life from our bodies The malice lurking in every crevice Cracking the foundation of this plane To continue as a hollow shell Begging to be broken and released from this torment Yet, the time is upon us To fulfil our destiny I feel your veins pulsate as I clench And as the whimper of your fading life escapes your lips The horror evokes an anguished bellow from the depths of my soul Forgive me... The rays begin to shine through the ebony clouds Bittersweet, as it warms my pain I begin to howl I reach out to your translucent silhouette and you flutter away. We exist within the very fabric of reality only as one... |

6. | The Deluge | 07:17 | Show lyrics |
It pours over me This unwritten tome of despair From the depths of nothingness, I see you in the distance I feel your presence in every fibre of my being These dreams came to nothing They scatter on the wind With the shadows of our ghosts These fears are all you left me To drown what I have lost So let these waters rise Droplets of rain circle around me My footsteps resounding in my head The lightning cracks and illuminates all It beckons me to follow To reach the source of that which cannot be uttered yet impossible to remain silent on Inundated, I stand Broken, I struggle Dead, I wither My body, crumbles into dust These dreams came to nothing They scatter on the wind With the shadows of our ghosts These fears are all you left me To drown what I have lost So let these waters rise Battle the current and swim against the stream One last struggle to convince the tide that we’re worthy One final look at your face will suffice End this senseless tirade of doubt and fear Permit closure and if everything is to be, then let it rain down on us! For it will take over one way or another It’s up to us how we bid each other farewell Let it drench this annihilated land Let it reclaim its rightful place Let it consume all that we are! The ink begins to dry out The chronicle concludes Nothing more left to say I vanish from existence... |

7. | Atonement | 07:38 | Show lyrics |
Glaring at the horizon Blood boils An insurmountable rage and the memory of you is too much to withstand The indoctrination behind your words Permitting the fall of us all You are not of this world I banish you henceforth You shall not walk amongst us Not a flicker of hope for you I condemn who you are Who you’ve always been The steel mask no longer shielding you Free-falling from heights so great Your place in the clouds won’t hold you for long The time has come to set your feet on the ground Or you will disintegrate You raise on a throne others made And you think that your prize will not choke you Savour your short lived reign For the ones you’ve tried to break will rise against you Soon and certain the day of your fall When you’ll know that my winged curse has found you You will burn! The indoctrination behind your words Permitting the fall of us all You are not of this world I banish you henceforth For all you believed you were For all the pain and hurt For all that which you caused You will eventually fall Compassion has come up short You’re banished! |

8. | The Event Horizon | 08:12 | Show lyrics |
I scream at the skies Wondering how it all came to pass I reach out to you Dark matter between us You remain unattainable I claw my way through the pits of desolation Only to fail I fall I crawl I sob I break Can you recall these fleeting moments? A hollow temple where death comes in strides I puncture these remnants of ache and horror Only for them to burst onto me I have ruined all that we were I now stand beside myself Hellish abyss A path with no escape Feasting on my sanity I fall I crawl I sob I break I mourn the memories of your light The sight of an uncertain future It taints what we once were Dying in the midst of ephemeral bliss Awaiting an eternal scorn Shades of black begin to take form A waning breath that can only mutter one final thought... Why? |

The dust settles Tumultuous feeling, we rise Walk the fields in search of our own Lifeless many lay So many slain Our enemies quaked in fear Our swords drove strong Barren fields now covered in blood The battle cry resounded throughout these lands Weary, we retrieve them all Prepare them for their journey Onwards to eternity we send them off Into the hands of the gods We now march back to those we love We sheathe our weapons and begin our journey homeward Battered, our feet rest firmly in the soil We look upon the stars, pondering Green pastures over the horizon, awaiting Soon it shall come to pass Destiny encompasses Broken and battered souls carried away by the wind Oh, Greatness The smell of blood no longer lingers Onward to reward, pursuits of bliss Lifelong time of battles cease forever It creeps over the bend We see... Oh, greatness It creeps over the bend We see, we yearn, we deserve I fall to my knees Lash out a cry of contentment Home is where I shall dwell Battles waged for years and years Here I shall rest until my dying day |

Through the peaks and valleys, oceans, and fields This wondrous habitat thrives Serenity infects the skies Peaceful as the evening clouds cry And as amber rises at dawn We reflect as if all is gone The tides turn, the winds sway And as it all rests on the drip of the hourglass It shall renew itself and restore balance Serenity infects the skies Peaceful as the evening clouds cry And as amber rises at dawn We reflect as if all is gone The tides turn, the winds sway And as it all rests on the drip of the hourglass It shall renew itself and restore balance The earth roars with tremendous might The power of its rumble, a flame ignites Rejoicing in rays Dampen my being Sift through endless moss, a feeling so fleeting To be regained once more Through the ages, nature tore... |

On these frostbitten plains I await A withering realm, a mere shadow of its former self Dilapidated and lonely We chose to fight for a cause Honour, pride, dignity, and love Through the passage of time, it became exposed Attempting to reclaim what was never ours From the pebbles that dance in the rivers To the leaves that glide in the wind The rays that warm the pastures And the rain that spawns new life We were once one Now blinded by selfish deceit Drifting further and further away We were once one Now blinded by selfish deceit We drift further away Through ashes of our once great host Travel through continents to lands unknown Yet we witness faceless clones of our adopted reality Transcendence non-existent The final bell begins to toll Far from redemption We slowly burn all scrolls Extinction, we beseech Anguished, I tread Wondering why? Watching all die Empires of Ash, cry! From the pebbles that dance in the rivers To the leaves that glide in the wind The rays that warm the pastures And the rain that spawns new life No longer shall we rise above our failures No longer shall we chant The end is nigh We interred our kingdom... |

1. | Bound by Blood | 06:40 | Show lyrics |
Dark dominion Not a speck of light in sight Feverish and fatigued I walk Searching for that glimmer of hope Am I destined to find that which I seek? I follow the path laid out in front of me I follow... To who am I so bound? Where is this free will that eludes me now? To who am I so bound? Where is my free will? It eludes me now... Blinded ever still I attempt to claw my way out of this dark abyss The precocious arcane knowledge that I possess feels drained And alien to me now Soon enough I will find you I gather strength and release a flash of light Revealing the soul of the darkness It shows the way and a figure stands before me All along you were present within me Ages ago you vanished Uncertainty, confusion, hatred, relief You shall not escape again Staring down at torment itself I reveal all that plagued my soul My hatred resurfaces A sinister wave of energy emits from me Haunting memories, I shall not back down...I unleash Here you found your final resting place. |

Around me they circle Emerald tones of past and present Oaken beings stand tall The sturdy mounds of granite surround us all Sapphire glowing above Bask in the glory of our mother She protects us ever still... And so we shall reciprocate For without her glory We are but lost souls on a journey to nothingness Oh mother, hear our call We summon you to show us the way For we are lost in the wilderness... Within us, we bear the torch The virtues of our matriarch Embedded in our every being, to be awakened She is eternal After the eras of our occupation we shall soon wither And you shall so beautifully remain. |

Beneath these hills there runs a stream A blood-red course where dead men dream In winter’s cold, their ghosts I see Their Pale Host ever follows me Their pyres burned high, their arms they gleamed And now they lie in Glory’s sleep And though I lived, the light to see The Pale Host still walks beside me They wander far, grey banners high Though ‘neath these hills their bones still lie Long through the mists and wilds they roam But the Pale Host never will march home. |

5. | Homeward | 09:14 | Show lyrics |
The dust settles Tumultuous feeling, we rise Walk the fields in search of our own Lifeless many lay So many slain Our enemies quaked in fear Our swords drove strong Barren fields now covered in blood The battle cry resounded throughout these lands Weary, we retrieve them all Prepare them for their journey Onwards to eternity we send them off Into the hands of the gods We now march back to those we love We sheathe our weapons and begin our journey homeward Battered, our feet rest firmly in the soil We look upon the stars, pondering Green pastures over the horizon, awaiting Soon it shall come to pass Destiny encompasses Broken and battered souls carried away by the wind Oh, Greatness The smell of blood no longer lingers Onward to reward, pursuits of bliss Lifelong time of battles cease forever It creeps over the bend We see... Oh, greatness It creeps over the bend We see, we yearn, we deserve I fall to my knees Lash out a cry of contentment Home is where I shall dwell Battles waged for years and years Here I shall rest until my dying day |

6. | Trails of the Earth | 07:42 | Show lyrics |
Through the peaks and valleys, oceans, and fields This wondrous habitat thrives Serenity infects the skies Peaceful as the evening clouds cry And as amber rises at dawn We reflect as if all is gone The tides turn, the winds sway And as it all rests on the drip of the hourglass It shall renew itself and restore balance Serenity infects the skies Peaceful as the evening clouds cry And as amber rises at dawn We reflect as if all is gone The tides turn, the winds sway And as it all rests on the drip of the hourglass It shall renew itself and restore balance The earth roars with tremendous might The power of its rumble, a flame ignites Rejoicing in rays Dampen my being Sift through endless moss, a feeling so fleeting To be regained once more Through the ages, nature tore... |

7. | Empires of Ash | 12:32 | Show lyrics |
On these frostbitten plains I await A withering realm, a mere shadow of its former self Dilapidated and lonely We chose to fight for a cause Honour, pride, dignity, and love Through the passage of time, it became exposed Attempting to reclaim what was never ours From the pebbles that dance in the rivers To the leaves that glide in the wind The rays that warm the pastures And the rain that spawns new life We were once one Now blinded by selfish deceit Drifting further and further away We were once one Now blinded by selfish deceit We drift further away Through ashes of our once great host Travel through continents to lands unknown Yet we witness faceless clones of our adopted reality Transcendence non-existent The final bell begins to toll Far from redemption We slowly burn all scrolls Extinction, we beseech Anguished, I tread Wondering why? Watching all die Empires of Ash, cry! From the pebbles that dance in the rivers To the leaves that glide in the wind The rays that warm the pastures And the rain that spawns new life No longer shall we rise above our failures No longer shall we chant The end is nigh We interred our kingdom... |

1. | Bound by Blood | 06:40 | Show lyrics |
Dark dominion Not a speck of light in sight Feverish and fatigued I walk Searching for that glimmer of hope Am I destined to find that which I seek? I follow the path laid out in front of me I follow... To who am I so bound? Where is this free will that eludes me now? To who am I so bound? Where is my free will? It eludes me now... Blinded ever still I attempt to claw my way out of this dark abyss The precocious arcane knowledge that I possess feels drained And alien to me now Soon enough I will find you I gather strength and release a flash of light Revealing the soul of the darkness It shows the way and a figure stands before me All along you were present within me Ages ago you vanished Uncertainty, confusion, hatred, relief You shall not escape again Staring down at torment itself I reveal all that plagued my soul My hatred resurfaces A sinister wave of energy emits from me Haunting memories, I shall not back down...I unleash Here you found your final resting place. |

2. | Heritage of the Natural Realm | 09:19 | Show lyrics |
Around me they circle Emerald tones of past and present Oaken beings stand tall The sturdy mounds of granite surround us all Sapphire glowing above Bask in the glory of our mother She protects us ever still... And so we shall reciprocate For without her glory We are but lost souls on a journey to nothingness Oh mother, hear our call We summon you to show us the way For we are lost in the wilderness... Within us, we bear the torch The virtues of our matriarch Embedded in our every being, to be awakened She is eternal After the eras of our occupation we shall soon wither And you shall so beautifully remain. |

3. | Aeons of Valor | 07:58 | Show lyrics |
At the top of the hill, a legion of the unknown gathers We stare into each others souls with malicious intent All on the line, we charge As it rages, seeming unlikely to cease They all clash, knowing their fates Arcane waves of energy flow through the air Steel dips itself in blood Here they all shall die with honour The landscape now painted crimson The sanguine liquid caressing the ground No sign of sheathing, it rages on Dusk approaches, limbs now ache Death yearning to embrace our souls Sons of the earth wage in a battle for the honour of ancients The gods look down on us and smile with satisfaction Songs will be sung around embers Whispers in the night will accompany our feats Moon light comforting our trek away from home Stories told of all odysseys in the wake of victory For it shall be told Here, in faraway lands Blood was split Fight with honour, they said Die with dignity Fate approaches blindly Bound by blood Through the endless night They send us off To meet our gods. |

1. | Winter’s Slumber | 07:39 | Show lyrics |
This eternal white as far as the eye can see Remnants of eras long forgotten Memories faded into the depths of mystery Can I recover them? I raise my head and breathe in deep Words of the old ones fall to me As snow on the mountain I know this is how it should be The long sleep of winter This eternal white as far as the eye can see Remnants of eras long forgotten Memories faded into the depths of mystery Can I recover them? I raise my head, so far I see Tranquillity... The lake of death Grasping the purity within I shall rise, if not for long To wither here in my final place of peace No better place to glare upon one last time I smile, I cry I blissfully let go “The woods are lovely, dark and deep But I have promises to keep And miles to go before I sleep.” Excerpt from the Robert Frost (1874-1963) poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” |

2. | Titan | 06:30 | Show lyrics |
Nothing will ever be the same again These valleys forsaken now This distant roar like a whisper On the blooded horizon Mother of this world Your tears burn my skin And the scars shall open my eyes Cold are the spaces between the stars But death is just a waking dream We’re all wanderers in dust With all the ruin I’ve seen I still wonder about life Standing fearless As I realize the end Lift me up above this universe of glass Where sorrow no longer Encircles the blossoming fields Thus I’m banished to the hell of others To shatter this burden I’ll carry the weight To the point of Hedonism I shall revel in disgrace Only to be born again We were here to caress the void Of the dying serpent sun Winter tears my guilt apart Spread across the heavens And dim is the veil Crashing down |

3. | Ode to the Sovereign | 07:15 | Show lyrics |
The Sovereign The roots set in And as I fix my gaze upon you I see beauty and pain Shadows encircle these long lost grasps Oh, Mother, what have we done? Mere beasts we have become We have forgotten our stance In somber storms you dance From your path we have strayed Misguided and treacherous, we remain. Long since we knew Whether we could stop ourselves A bargain made with faceless gods Of gain and progress To you we call That you might reclaim us Consign us to your realm Or we will surely fall. The roots set in I see beauty and pain Shadows encircle Ode to the Sovereign. |

4. | An Oath Sworn in Sorrow | 06:16 | Show lyrics |
Draw your sword Look me in the eyes We were born for this moment But the memories cloud my mind Of all that we have done I swore I would protect you But what have you become? From the moment our hearts began beating This gap would be filled Preordained assassination of the crippled mind Lost in an ancient sea of time As whirlwinds dance on paths once trod By beings vast, alone we stood And waited for it all to end Could you not see? You were always there by my side The comfort of my very being The monster you are has me blind I want to let you walk away but I boil inside For your faults you shall fall Reluctant beating slows you to a crawl The whistling sound of steel Sliding against your dry flesh Proved to be my final and ultimate test As the blade retracts so too do my tears fall Heavily, I sob I’ll always wear you on my sleeve A reminder of my undying love for you Until my dying day, I’ll carry your memory Within the walls of my mind, you live forever on |

5. | Our Bones Among the Ruins | 05:21 | Show lyrics |
A premonition of horrors awakens me from slumber A darkened reality eaten by entities unrecognizable What did I just see? Sweat trickles Through these dense and lively forests I walk Yearning to discover what it was This beautiful golden stream of life I mustn’t walk too far in Obtaining cognizance is my only option Turn around, flee In time the grey smoke would surround Screams of agony Thick as fog at dawn but yet so shallow What energy shall I muster? My exertions are futile In shadows you have prevailed Your only door left open is that of defeat You have plagued for far too long I cannot allow you to leave I carry the key to the lock of the netherworld A realm lost to space and time Here is where you will dwell and relinquish your claim To the stranglehold you so fiercely grasp You forever withdraw to the blackness of inanimate existence Yet with peace restored... The brightest light casts the darkest shadows |

6. | Where Lost Hope Lies | 09:53 | Show lyrics |
Through the endless shadows we turn Amongst the fires of the past we burn For the sake of the child we fend Yet unto an unknown will, we bend For these flames that urge to caress our skin Wears us down much too thin To the highest mountain I shall walk Through fields uncertain Where I fought There rises unbeknownst a cry Culpability smiles Seething and keeping watch Once again it is all my fault I must evade lest they hear These struggles brought in agony The starlit smouldering sky Where arrows burn in flight There remains yet a flicker of hope for you Awaken, set forth and persist Born out of despair, flames, and grief This power grows ever so greatly within me For there is no place left to hide For the anger in me won’t subside My eyes have much to tell And your empty stare will lead us into your hell For I always knew you were already gone Every passing day it is you I miss My final message to you is this From the sorrow and rage, I desist Unrequited, I no longer exist... |

7. | The Shadowed Road | 08:35 | Show lyrics |
If I could choose my way I’d never leave this place This forest dreams in greens and golds I’ll never see again But I hear the quiet call A portent drifting dark and cold For the road ahead is shadowed And there ruin waits untold But I will not turn away I roam this bloodstained road Through the mountain paths to the gates of bone I swear by the grey boundless sea One day I will return But my home is corrupted and all gods to fall The forest will burn So I’ll leave on the path I must take Crushing fate, I’ll never forget That hope is as dim as ghosts In the dens of their hosts I’ll hold to it Beneath this crumbling world I saw A truth as dark as a thousand unseen winters Our doom was written in our souls But I will claim it as my own I once dreamed of a place Where all things of old stories dwell I longed for it, now I see That where there walk dreams Nightmares linger as well This is my road, through wandering shades For the promise I made Through hidden vales All the shapes that haunt us I will contend The road has burned my world away Did I think to come this far unchanged? But I feel a sense of clarity I’ve never known before That with death so close behind me I can see the bitter dawn Into the plains of ash I’ll leave the world that was behind Though I walk into the dark I walk at last with open eyes Behold my empire The ruinscape The broken bonds that held us I wonder how I came this far Through terrors dread The road won’t destroy me I’ll follow where it leads The truth is ever near Look into the dark If you will look into the dark Ever will I walk upon this shadowed road This ravaged path where phantoms roam For if all things must end I’d walk among the ashes of the dawning shadowed world |

1. | Winter’s Slumber | 07:39 | Show lyrics |
This eternal white as far as the eye can see Remnants of eras long forgotten Memories faded into the depths of mystery Can I recover them? I raise my head and breathe in deep Words of the old ones fall to me As snow on the mountain I know this is how it should be The long sleep of winter This eternal white as far as the eye can see Remnants of eras long forgotten Memories faded into the depths of mystery Can I recover them? I raise my head, so far I see Tranquillity... The lake of death Grasping the purity within I shall rise, if not for long To wither here in my final place of peace No better place to glare upon one last time I smile, I cry I blissfully let go “The woods are lovely, dark and deep But I have promises to keep And miles to go before I sleep.” Excerpt from the Robert Frost (1874-1963) poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” |

2. | Titan | 06:30 | Show lyrics |
Nothing will ever be the same again These valleys forsaken now This distant roar like a whisper On the blooded horizon Mother of this world Your tears burn my skin And the scars shall open my eyes Cold are the spaces between the stars But death is just a waking dream We’re all wanderers in dust With all the ruin I’ve seen I still wonder about life Standing fearless As I realize the end Lift me up above this universe of glass Where sorrow no longer Encircles the blossoming fields Thus I’m banished to the hell of others To shatter this burden I’ll carry the weight To the point of Hedonism I shall revel in disgrace Only to be born again We were here to caress the void Of the dying serpent sun Winter tears my guilt apart Spread across the heavens And dim is the veil Crashing down |

3. | Ode to the Sovereign | 07:15 | Show lyrics |
The Sovereign The roots set in And as I fix my gaze upon you I see beauty and pain Shadows encircle these long lost grasps Oh, Mother, what have we done? Mere beasts we have become We have forgotten our stance In somber storms you dance From your path we have strayed Misguided and treacherous, we remain. Long since we knew Whether we could stop ourselves A bargain made with faceless gods Of gain and progress To you we call That you might reclaim us Consign us to your realm Or we will surely fall. The roots set in I see beauty and pain Shadows encircle Ode to the Sovereign. |

4. | An Oath Sworn in Sorrow | 06:16 | Show lyrics |
Draw your sword Look me in the eyes We were born for this moment But the memories cloud my mind Of all that we have done I swore I would protect you But what have you become? From the moment our hearts began beating This gap would be filled Preordained assassination of the crippled mind Lost in an ancient sea of time As whirlwinds dance on paths once trod By beings vast, alone we stood And waited for it all to end Could you not see? You were always there by my side The comfort of my very being The monster you are has me blind I want to let you walk away but I boil inside For your faults you shall fall Reluctant beating slows you to a crawl The whistling sound of steel Sliding against your dry flesh Proved to be my final and ultimate test As the blade retracts so too do my tears fall Heavily, I sob I’ll always wear you on my sleeve A reminder of my undying love for you Until my dying day, I’ll carry your memory Within the walls of my mind, you live forever on |

5. | Our Bones Among the Ruins | 05:21 | Show lyrics |
A premonition of horrors awakens me from slumber A darkened reality eaten by entities unrecognizable What did I just see? Sweat trickles Through these dense and lively forests I walk Yearning to discover what it was This beautiful golden stream of life I mustn’t walk too far in Obtaining cognizance is my only option Turn around, flee In time the grey smoke would surround Screams of agony Thick as fog at dawn but yet so shallow What energy shall I muster? My exertions are futile In shadows you have prevailed Your only door left open is that of defeat You have plagued for far too long I cannot allow you to leave I carry the key to the lock of the netherworld A realm lost to space and time Here is where you will dwell and relinquish your claim To the stranglehold you so fiercely grasp You forever withdraw to the blackness of inanimate existence Yet with peace restored... The brightest light casts the darkest shadows |

6. | Where Lost Hope Lies | 09:53 | Show lyrics |
Through the endless shadows we turn Amongst the fires of the past we burn For the sake of the child we fend Yet unto an unknown will, we bend For these flames that urge to caress our skin Wears us down much too thin To the highest mountain I shall walk Through fields uncertain Where I fought There rises unbeknownst a cry Culpability smiles Seething and keeping watch Once again it is all my fault I must evade lest they hear These struggles brought in agony The starlit smouldering sky Where arrows burn in flight There remains yet a flicker of hope for you Awaken, set forth and persist Born out of despair, flames, and grief This power grows ever so greatly within me For there is no place left to hide For the anger in me won’t subside My eyes have much to tell And your empty stare will lead us into your hell For I always knew you were already gone Every passing day it is you I miss My final message to you is this From the sorrow and rage, I desist Unrequited, I no longer exist... |

7. | The Shadowed Road | 08:35 | Show lyrics |
If I could choose my way I’d never leave this place This forest dreams in greens and golds I’ll never see again But I hear the quiet call A portent drifting dark and cold For the road ahead is shadowed And there ruin waits untold But I will not turn away I roam this bloodstained road Through the mountain paths to the gates of bone I swear by the grey boundless sea One day I will return But my home is corrupted and all gods to fall The forest will burn So I’ll leave on the path I must take Crushing fate, I’ll never forget That hope is as dim as ghosts In the dens of their hosts I’ll hold to it Beneath this crumbling world I saw A truth as dark as a thousand unseen winters Our doom was written in our souls But I will claim it as my own I once dreamed of a place Where all things of old stories dwell I longed for it, now I see That where there walk dreams Nightmares linger as well This is my road, through wandering shades For the promise I made Through hidden vales All the shapes that haunt us I will contend The road has burned my world away Did I think to come this far unchanged? But I feel a sense of clarity I’ve never known before That with death so close behind me I can see the bitter dawn Into the plains of ash I’ll leave the world that was behind Though I walk into the dark I walk at last with open eyes Behold my empire The ruinscape The broken bonds that held us I wonder how I came this far Through terrors dread The road won’t destroy me I’ll follow where it leads The truth is ever near Look into the dark If you will look into the dark Ever will I walk upon this shadowed road This ravaged path where phantoms roam For if all things must end I’d walk among the ashes of the dawning shadowed world |

1. | The Monolith | 05:55 | Show lyrics |
Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? How I long to be real To know the endless truth that mountains know Must I end to feel such timeless peace? For there is none in the grey Only masks, only words without meaning Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? They showed me their truth A concrete monolith that cast no shadow But slowly I see the intangible is uncorrupted I’ll leave this place To walk in worlds that never were To mourn what never was For only this is real Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? Behold with sleepless eyes Beyond the grey An echo rings A whispered dream The truth beyond the real is everything |

2. | Eulogy for the Lost | 07:49 | Show lyrics |
In this desolate cold world, I am forsaken I stand alone in the depths of despair A hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time Forbidden realm of dreams Will I ever become one with such place? Starlit skies smile upon me Seeping matter pulsates Beneath dark soil I awaken A sacred rite From which I rise As the suns rays die And my wings no longer fly Desperate I flail in the nothingness Held down, anxious, with no breath Consciousness fades away All light disappearing as day shall never break The opportunity has come and gone Feelings of bliss see no dawn Forthcoming displeasures so great Here, I meet my fate Beneath dark soil I awaken A sacred rite From which I rise The turning season To return The dark is waiting I. Shall. Perish. |

3. | The Apocalyptic Theater | 06:34 | Show lyrics |
The curtain falls Desolation and decay enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Somehow, a strange beauty gleams The forceful descent slowly dawns No caress to fall upon This hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time We reach out and what do we find? Not a whisper in the wind A slither in the cracks, Not a soul on this plain Tears of the Earth begin to rain The tears of the earth Desolation enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Failure, to fulfil our dreams Sorrow, our hopes recede Hatred, seemed our only path Shadows, will ever last Newborn rivers begin to flow An elusive story never to be told Into oblivion we fade For the monumental mistakes we made Now, the curtains, they rise Forevermore, we watch with lifeless eyes |

4. | Talas | 04:35 | Show lyrics |
Sight returns Before cruel thought There’s such grief in waking I long to drift unknowing here But memory soon Breaks me anew Again that dreadful whisper It moves across the drowning tide I hide in broken towers But still it knows all that I’ve done Will I become this darkness? Will I forget all that I was? Only you There’s only you Now the ghosts drifting forward In the dark of the void But I do not stand alone As I ever have before And I hear the words resound In your voice, “take my hand” No, I do not stand alone As I ever have before And I hear the words resound In your voice, “take my hand” No, I do not stand alone as I ever have before Here we stand at the heart Of this hopeless world of chaos No we do not stand alone As we ever have before |

5. | Fatal Frame | 08:35 | Show lyrics |
The lingering scent of a dying dream Fulfilment of damnation from aeons past The promise once broken to be kept encaged in a prison of lies Unjustly until we meet our demise This crimson scar will never bloom A bloodstained tear takes the plunge from your face Madness seeps from your mind as you slash through this realm Despair, hatred and sadness corrode your reason The mourning dawn shall remain out of sight The pain refuses to subside All those years lonely because I failed you Never again! The caress of the dark and the daggers that wound Faithful to none but the endless void beneath Piece by piece, our souls break down into shards of glass Do not forget me and as the roots take hold, don’t let go! It constricts and chokes the life from our bodies The malice lurking in every crevice Cracking the foundation of this plane To continue as a hollow shell Begging to be broken and released from this torment Yet, the time is upon us To fulfil our destiny I feel your veins pulsate as I clench And as the whimper of your fading life escapes your lips The horror evokes an anguished bellow from the depths of my soul Forgive me... The rays begin to shine through the ebony clouds Bittersweet, as it warms my pain I begin to howl I reach out to your translucent silhouette and you flutter away. We exist within the very fabric of reality only as one... |

It pours over me This unwritten tome of despair From the depths of nothingness, I see you in the distance I feel your presence in every fibre of my being These dreams came to nothing They scatter on the wind With the shadows of our ghosts These fears are all you left me To drown what I have lost So let these waters rise Droplets of rain circle around me My footsteps resounding in my head The lightning cracks and illuminates all It beckons me to follow To reach the source of that which cannot be uttered yet impossible to remain silent on Inundated, I stand Broken, I struggle Dead, I wither My body, crumbles into dust These dreams came to nothing They scatter on the wind With the shadows of our ghosts These fears are all you left me To drown what I have lost So let these waters rise Battle the current and swim against the stream One last struggle to convince the tide that we’re worthy One final look at your face will suffice End this senseless tirade of doubt and fear Permit closure and if everything is to be, then let it rain down on us! For it will take over one way or another It’s up to us how we bid each other farewell Let it drench this annihilated land Let it reclaim its rightful place Let it consume all that we are! The ink begins to dry out The chronicle concludes Nothing more left to say I vanish from existence... |

Glaring at the horizon Blood boils An insurmountable rage and the memory of you is too much to withstand The indoctrination behind your words Permitting the fall of us all You are not of this world I banish you henceforth You shall not walk amongst us Not a flicker of hope for you I condemn who you are Who you’ve always been The steel mask no longer shielding you Free-falling from heights so great Your place in the clouds won’t hold you for long The time has come to set your feet on the ground Or you will disintegrate You raise on a throne others made And you think that your prize will not choke you Savour your short lived reign For the ones you’ve tried to break will rise against you Soon and certain the day of your fall When you’ll know that my winged curse has found you You will burn! The indoctrination behind your words Permitting the fall of us all You are not of this world I banish you henceforth For all you believed you were For all the pain and hurt For all that which you caused You will eventually fall Compassion has come up short You’re banished! |

I scream at the skies Wondering how it all came to pass I reach out to you Dark matter between us You remain unattainable I claw my way through the pits of desolation Only to fail I fall I crawl I sob I break Can you recall these fleeting moments? A hollow temple where death comes in strides I puncture these remnants of ache and horror Only for them to burst onto me I have ruined all that we were I now stand beside myself Hellish abyss A path with no escape Feasting on my sanity I fall I crawl I sob I break I mourn the memories of your light The sight of an uncertain future It taints what we once were Dying in the midst of ephemeral bliss Awaiting an eternal scorn Shades of black begin to take form A waning breath that can only mutter one final thought...

1. | The Monolith | 05:55 | Show lyrics |
Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? How I long to be real To know the endless truth that mountains know Must I end to feel such timeless peace? For there is none in the grey Only masks, only words without meaning Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? They showed me their truth A concrete monolith that cast no shadow But slowly I see the intangible is uncorrupted I’ll leave this place To walk in worlds that never were To mourn what never was For only this is real Truth, it bleeds from words of madness Beyond what we perceive. Is this grey world that we see More real than the dreams we seek? Behold with sleepless eyes Beyond the grey An echo rings A whispered dream The truth beyond the real is everything |

2. | Eulogy for the Lost | 07:49 | Show lyrics |
In this desolate cold world, I am forsaken I stand alone in the depths of despair A hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time Forbidden realm of dreams Will I ever become one with such place? Starlit skies smile upon me Seeping matter pulsates Beneath dark soil I awaken A sacred rite From which I rise As the suns rays die And my wings no longer fly Desperate I flail in the nothingness Held down, anxious, with no breath Consciousness fades away All light disappearing as day shall never break The opportunity has come and gone Feelings of bliss see no dawn Forthcoming displeasures so great Here, I meet my fate Beneath dark soil I awaken A sacred rite From which I rise The turning season To return The dark is waiting I. Shall. Perish. |

The curtain falls Desolation and decay enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Somehow, a strange beauty gleams The forceful descent slowly dawns No caress to fall upon This hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time We reach out and what do we find? Not a whisper in the wind A slither in the cracks, Not a soul on this plain Tears of the Earth begin to rain The tears of the earth Desolation enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Failure, to fulfil our dreams Sorrow, our hopes recede Hatred, seemed our only path Shadows, will ever last Newborn rivers begin to flow An elusive story never to be told Into oblivion we fade For the monumental mistakes we made Now, the curtains, they rise Forevermore, we watch with lifeless eyes |
