“Para a obra que há que prometer Ao nosso esforço alado em si, Convoco todos sem saber (É a hora!) aqui!” [Quinto Império] Fernando pessoa -------------------- What begins has an end By the rules of nature Creation is built upon death Human gods succumbing of age Reborn from the burning ashes Once power visions and reseek The wisdom still unfound Reborn, reborn, reborn…Now! Mankind ascends, falls, dies Mankind ascends, falls, dies One last time, the last time, One last fight, its time The greatest battle is fought Inside our minds We search the answers Wonder why we try Frail mortals hear me We are the ones who will never give up Reborn…Now! Gaze the sky in murder red Where all fears come alive A new end meets the misty dawn To flame the spirits overtrowned What begins has an end By the rule of nature Mankind ascends falls and dies…one last time

Demonight 05:15
lyrics

The night is falling And I don’t know my way The lonely wolf is free from its cage Open your eyes, inhale the moonlight Children of night summon us The undead rises 666 feet Scratches his coffin, tries to come out Rise above and howl, release the demon Set it free, let it be I want to see your true form I want to see thru your eyes Reveal it to me, I will show you mine Vampires roam attracted by starlight Emerging from death to quench the thirst... tonight I am demonight beast of darkness I am the nightmare, the ruler of shadows I am beneath your skin, beneath your skin Fear…soul is sheep Prayer… won’t save you from it You know you cannot run and you can’t hide Cannot run… cannot hide… Open your window let us in Witches strip under your satin sheets Open the window let us in Confess you desire the pleasures Devouring, devouring, devouring

Humane 06:45
lyrics

Treat me as a human being, not like a person I’ve killed everybody in here, this isn’t me Why? Can you tell me? Why? I guess not… I guess not… I guess not… I guess not… at the end. A fainting heart awakens from slumber… Shatters the piece to compose the new Across fragile glass disturbs the feeble string To disconnect from what’s old… To reconnect and grow… Hair ages white, but time never mattered As soul leaks thru sore veins The body swallows blood to breathe Learns to live tasting death, sour sweet, sour sweet Even when there’s no one left here We remain on our seat Life is a theatre, a stage to play, our role… Tell me!? Why? Why? Someone tell me!? Why? Tell me!? Why? Someone tell me!? Why? Suddently…suddently… Where am I? Stripped from reality… A familiar place, I wonder if I’ve been, before… These walls covered in pictures, moments that didn’t survive Listening my heart beating, telling me… don’t forefend your life And lost soon be found with the glen back on my eyes Clinically dead, resurrecting to life with full strength inside… breathe in, breathe out…

Smoke Illness 03:52
lyrics
download
Today I woke up unknown Too cold inside my bones Children voices in unison Order me to obey! Got up compelled by this steel noise that hid deceit People lining on the street, like the perfect machines Far away broken clouds of gray of the thickest smoke Chants of promise they evoke to this human machines Screen by screen… Frame by frame… Until we all only think the same Another pill I’ll be ok Just what I need to take this pain from me Crumb by crumb… Greedy fly… I have the best product you can buy I mean the key to your misery Just what you need to take that pain from you Smoke illness in my brain, scrape it from me I want to choose my pain, humanity… I had to follow them, didn’t even question it Maybe I’ll admit defeat, like the perfect machine And far away broken clouds of gray of the thickest smoke Swallowed up the muted frown of this human machines Page by page… Black and white… So we can all keep a little light Another pill I’ll be fine Just what I need to choke this pain of mine Brick by brick… Build a hive… I have the cure that you need to thrive I mean the key to a greener life Just what you need to sooth that pain of yours Smoke illness in my brain, scrape it from me I want to choose my pain, humanity…

Belief 05:15
lyrics
download
Sterile plain of disbelief A slave to the thing that You have become and contemplate Cause faith like hate Dries in every man’s heart Faith like hate Blooms in everyman’s heart Faith, faith trials everyone Do you bring us truth? You who sailed all seven oceans Saw art burning, burning tall Touched the mind of a king His crown would give to the poor With few found words a brand new world Bring us truth and belief Sangria-la paradise Bring us gold as pure as dew A grand age, grand values Take your time assemble the bomb Blow us, send us away So loud some birds whisper songs, songs of change Weave the tread tangled up We are dying inside And when you’re gone leave us myth Then maybe we can revive Do you bring the truth? You who sailed all seven oceans Saw art burning, burning tall And touched the mind of a king Who´s crown gave to the poor With few found words a brand new world Tell me, tell me Drink from this knowledge I deliver to you But taste it with ignorance a glimpse can blind you

Alexitimia 04:31
lyrics

Numa caixa fechada Supera a estranha condição Da morte na sua cor Ter sim, vida mas não calor Alguma dor…Resiste à cura A dor insiste, recusa ceder Então vem até mim Dá-me o abraço frio Que eu esboço em ti Com um sorriso doentio Silêncio, apenas silêncio Onde quero cortar-te aos poucos Num espaço fantasiado Para dissecar a equação Apenas silêncio, silêncio Somente viu um reflexo De contorno sombrio A expressão sem nexo Para ele um desafio Somente o seu reflexo O profundo vazio De um qualquer abismo Sepulcro da infância Volátil substância que Derrama para adormecer O grito sem memória de, de ser Uma caixa fechada Estremece na sua escuridão Sem qualquer empatia por Nenhuma emoção Alguma dor… Resiste à cura A dor insiste, recusa ceder Vem até mim Dá-me o abraço frio Que eu esboço em ti Com um sorriso doentio Com um sorriso doentio

Standing Stones 06:17
lyrics

It’s stormy though quiet and warm Fallout of the standing stones On your feet soldier It’s time to go to war The cease fires over Back to the front against overwhelming odds With my gun in my hands The blood that I’ve shed A pawn of your will I am Till the bullet dictates the end Damnations Sleeping peacefully Craving me, me While numbers die and kill Bathing in a glory that will Will never heal A field of a million standing stones Feel their call, hear them call from below Restless hearts claiming the new soul Spoils of war and madness Forever awaiting redemption Damnations Tainted in red Blood that I’ve shed, shed While numbers die and kill Wallow in glory, breed one Breed an evil seed A field of a million standing stones Feel their call, hear them call from below Restless hearts claiming the new soul Spoils of war and madness Forever awaiting… Fallen, twisting in agony, now the world is free Will they read my name? Now my only friend seems the enemy lying next to me On a standing stone It’s stormy though quiet and warm Fallout of the standing stones

“No princípio criou Deus os céus e a terra. Disse Deus: Haja luz; e houve luz. (…) E fez separação entre a luz e as trevas. Criou Deus, pois, o homem à sua imagem, (…) Homem e mulher os criou. (…) E lhes disse: (…) Multiplicai-vos, (…) dominai...” [Bíblia sagrada “gênesis”] ------------------ E assim nascidos no esquecimento Deambulam pelas ruas à espera de um sinal Suplicando misericórdia, livrai-nos do mal Livrai-nos do mal… Bebe o sangue derramado Pelo exército que marcha por ti E ouve os prantos vitimados De todos aqueles que choram para ti Enquanto lá bem alto do teu trono… sorris! Deus ex machina! Deus ex machina! Deus ex machina! Deus ex… machina, machina Pela voz da serpente, trinco o fruto proibido Entre o bem e o mal, ser maior, simples, vulgar… carne! E assim expulsos do jardim de éden Feridos pela espada, a vergonha, do que somos Livrai-nos do mal… Bebe o sangue derramado Pelo exército que marcha por ti E ouve os prantos vitimados De todos aqueles que choram para ti Enquanto lá bem alto do teu trono… sorris! Deus ex machina! Deus ex machina! Deus ex machina! Deus ex… “No princípio criou Deus os céus e a terra. Disse Deus: Haja luz; e houve luz. (…) E fez separação entre a luz e as trevas. Criou Deus, pois, o homem à sua imagem, (…) Homem e mulher os criou. (…) E lhes disse: (…) Multiplicai-vos, (…) dominai…”
