A cry among the stars
04:40
|
|||
|
1st verse
Find a reason to hold on
while the world grows old
and the season of (a) grief
still unheard of lies upon
beyond the maze of Nyx
there lies the being
chorus
You’ll leave behind the glory days
heading to the very end
while the suns of old lie bleeding
a dying beat
a cry among the stars
2nd verse
Find a reason to keep hold
ancient memory in us all
pushing further the frontier
on the highest verge of fear
those were
the days (when)
chorus
You left behind the glory days
heading to the very end
while the suns of old lie bleeding
a dying beat
a cry among the stars
[interludium]
chorus
You left behind the glory days
heading to the very end
while the suns of old lie bleeding
a dying beat
a cry among the stars

The Oracle and the Muse
04:43
|
|||
|
1st verse
Silent in utopian dreams
eyes set to scan what awaits
ears set to hear cries unheard
voices of the wretched ones
ages in a glimpse to feel
a reign is cast for you to rule
bridge
There’s something from the past
that compels the verse, the rhyme
then you’ll be ...
chorus
Hearing the call
right from the nine
bringers of sorrows and of joys
Feeding a life
with shatters of truth
(you) witness the sorrow and the joy
feeding a life
by greater sight
2nd verse
By words divine celebrate
fates of glory and upheaval
things you’ve seen with borrowed eyes,
there where truths untold have lied,
you’ve sung for all men to know
(the) essence of eternal dying
bridge
There’s something from the past
that compels the verse, the rhyme
then you’ll be ...
chorus
Hearing the call
right from the nine
bringers of sorrows and of joys
Feeding a life
with shatters of truth
you witness the sorrow and the joy
feeding a life
by greater sight
[interludium]

A temple in time
04:43
|
|||
|
1st verse
Cities empty of men
lying at the gate o’ sleep
winds whistle of promises
and of words told at night
At the oracle’s behest
he was bound to have no rest
still for life will he have lust
should he overcome the pest?
pre-chorus
He was chosen
the blindman thus spoke
chorus
A temple in time
a temple in time
2nd verse
As the days are coming next
to behold forgetfulness
through shards of glories past
hìs name will die last
bridge
To the oracle behest ...
he was bound ...
still for life he will have lust
once overcome the past
pre-chorus
He was chosen
the blindman thus spoke
chorus
A temple in time
a temple in time
[interludium]
pre-chorus
He was chosen
the blindman thus spoke
chorus
A temple in time
a temple in time

1st verse
There were times
we felt we’d master
the boundless world
of things yet to come
There were times
we sat by the stars
and we thought
that we would sail them
Then a time came
to face the loss
chorus
Fought battles in vain
for the sake of pain
it’s reality
haunting you down
I walk alone again
there where I belong
2nd verse
Astral scenes
like woeful carvings
in the timeless
halls of wisdom
Skies turned into
weeping shapes,
a shade of dream
the progeny of men
Like statues we weep
in the garden of grief
chorus
Fought battles in vain
for the sake of pain
it’s reality
haunting you down
I walk alone again
there where I belong
[interludium]
chorus
Fought battles in vain
for the sake of pain
it’s reality
haunting you down
I walk alone again
there where I belong

Tidal waves of greatness
04:41
|
|||
|
1st verse
He’s worn a cloak
along the way
a master in disguise
he walked his way
and sway he held
on inner lands of woe
by nymphs was cherished
his hand they took
and then he slept Arcadian dreams
lost to bliss
chorus
Tidal waves of greatness
ride I will
so great heights
I have seen
as the ruin I step in
2nd verse
He trailed his way
to sorrow’s end
just a name into the sand
by moons uncaring
moved on and on
and bathe he did at Naiads’ stream
lost to bliss
bridge
He’s worn a cloak along the way ...
... on inner lands of woe ...
... lost to bliss ...
chorus
Tidal waves of greatness
ride I will
so great heights
I have seen
as the ruin I step in
[interludium]
chorus
Tidal waves of greatness
ride I will
so great heights
I have seen
as the ruin I step in

Once in Arcadia
04:35
|
|||
|
1st verse
It is the way they live
and it’s the way they’ll die
challenge the heavenly
Into a maze of woes
they seek the path of does
a deity lies in disguise
bridge
This time they went too far
the spears will cut the air
and tear their noble dreams
chorus
Living to fall
and fail to have the sight
to see the frail
ties of all glowing ends
Into a maze
into a maze of woe
all noble deeds
are made the poets’ word
2nd verse
Behold the misery
it underlies each will
no divine heights to reach
bridge
Be hunter or a prey
a fierce duality
life it is just a dream
chorus
Living to fall
and fail to have the sight
to see the frail
ties of all glowing ends
Into a maze
into a maze of woe
all noble deeds
are made the poets’ word
[interludium]
chorus
Living to fall
and fail to have the sight
to see the frail
ties of all glowing ends
Into a maze
into a maze of woe
all noble deeds
are made the poets’ word

The stone and the idol
06:21
|
|||
|
1st verse
Come crawling through idols
that bear no significance
Sun burnt both your skin and will
(then) the frost for you to abide
You keep sticking to the plan
Through plains of abandon
beneath stars’ unhearing choir
chorus
The stone and the idol
there can’t be light
without (a) shade
The idol, the stone
the offspring of yore
for you to adore
When flight of birds
were the sole compass
2nd verse
Enduring the distance
you crave for deliverance
From the veils of nothingness
you did grope in the dark
A strain lighting up the way
Through rains of catharsis
defying mortality
chorus
The stone and the idol
there can’t be light
without (a) shade
The idol, the stone
the offspring of yore
for you to adore
When flight of birds
were the sole compass
[interludium]
chorus
The stone and the idol
there can’t be light
without (a) shade
The idol, the stone
the offspring of yore
for you to adore
When flight of birds
were the sole compass

Born under Niobe
05:49
|
|||
|
1st verse
Come forth
step up
through the pillars of all gnosis
on you
it grows
tearing your beliefs apart
chorus [x2]
Born under Niobe
in times when time was not
and neither father chaos
2st verse
Afloat
a feel
it’s the pulse of astral moors
fractured
beliefs
greeting sorrow’s house in awe
chorus [x2]
Born under Niobe
in times when time was not
and neither father chaos

Mythmaker
04:13
|
|||
|
1st verse
While living on the sly
you craft supernal worlds
Give us a view on times
that were and ain’t no more
bridge
Once again
in the temple of creation
the myth will rise again
chorus
Mythmaker
you built the bridge of old
for paths you set to cross
beyond the realm of loss
Mythmaker
you fell down on your own
head up against the sky
you’re weaving truth and lie
2nd verse
You told us words of wisdom
and lead us through the storm
Then came the day when idols
proved to be bygone
bridge
Once again
in the temple of creation
the myth will rise again
chorus
Mythmaker
you built the bridge of old
for paths you set to cross
beyond the realm of loss
Mythmaker
you fell down on your own
head up against the sky
you’re weaving truth and lie
[interludium]
chorus
Mythmaker
you built the bridge of old
for paths you set to cross
beyond the realm of loss
Mythmaker
you fell down on your own
head up against the sky
you’re weaving truth and lie
