After Forever Prison of Desire Mea Culpa O mi jesu, demitte nobis debita nostra, salva nos ab igne inferiori, perduc in caelum Omnes animas, praesertim eas, quae misericordiae tuae maxime indigent Sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper et insaecula saeculorum Leaden Legacy I can"t look behind because I'm living in the past Tears without emotion are filling up the unbridled hours We cannot be What you expect from us We cannot see through the glasses of despair Evade the leaden legacy Those who separate and join the opposite do not see that that will get them nowhere Can't you understand it is a similar manipulation Wake up and see the light Doomed to wander in repressed emotions This imaginary refuge restrains me from awakening Fear of penance Doomed to sycophancy Doomed to sycophancy... Semblance of Confusion As the light's becoming more fierce and the heat is melting your heart The fire is awakening there's an ancient fear we all know Ominous, misleading, get entangled in yourself It's a feeling, creeps up, deep within Sweet taste of innocence forgotten A semblance of confusion The strength I need is now flowing away The choking feeling obstructs everything So erratic in search for the truth The pain is strong and persists Silence was just a diversion to come out on the hard truth again Leaving this world of illusions seen through the eyes of the innocent Confronted with the infinity of chaos, forcing you to rearrange When your litanies are unheard Phantasm becomes coldly real There's a thin line between the world of illusion and reality A purgatoric trip through the mirrors within you Unconsciousness beholden Fear to face pass the border of pain, that burning contagion To break, conquer and find lost beauty Rinse, the penance is over I know now where to find the answer Confronting unconsciousness Black Tomb The storm sings through the mountains While the rain is falling A tomb opens itself and lights up the dreary dark valley The warm spirits fill him, the enchantment of his glory past Hear his low voice whisper Feel his powers Change the light of darkness His sanctity, his strength He will rule like before the tomb closed Tainted souls live again The sweet vengeance versus the black spirits of evil Into the light, back into death, now it is time! It will depend on the righteous or doomed Like once before opened this tomb, for the revenge is mine Mother of the found, king of doom The fane of blackness, fountain of blood Take those enthroned, their poison inside Let them crawl till the end of time, die Follow in the Cry Behind your facade hides an indomitable lust for power and tyranny Taking advantage of your pendencies Fear is the doom, doom of us all Instead of exterminating the weed We allow it to overgrow our function All means are justified for the "djihad fi sabil Allah" I embrace you, accept my soul I shall make my life subordinate to you Live like your rules and laws prescribe and follow you wherever I go Follow in the cry Hang this heretic who's indulged in unchaste thoughts Silence him such as the laws of the vellums prescribe Pusillanimous massacres the order of the day On behalf of power-hungry fundamentalists Silence from Afar When the fate leaves you behind and drags me of to an unknown destination Shall my tears shape a sea on which your boat has to reach the area When the storm is most violent and the horizon seems to be far away You'll find strength to go on and conquer the misery that wants to bring you down When silence from afar is close at hand our harmony becomes as elusive as time Viribus exhaustus sentio meum finem Meam amicam viduam relinquens Inimical Chimera In the imperium with emerald valleys There where endlessness encircles you A goddess lost her aureole Created her own domain This valley of doom where I'm the token She'll be throwing the dice this time A goddess lost her aureole Evil took over her godless soul Swallowing you in the rivers of blood Morbid games played with you, you token Clouds are roaming around the pale moon An inimical gloom covers the valleys I'm the cephalic empress of this doomed celestial empire Hear the orchestra of death I wade in blood in search for my inevitable death The dice are rolling now Tortuous Threnody Thy gruesome cries so thin On thus you will succeed The amorphous illusions Thwart your willingness to believe The beauty disturbed The amulet, opener of forgotten doors Leads back to that doomed tiara-night See thyself wild in hysteria Death's irony The beauty disturbed Listen to this tortuous threnody Filled with the pain Thou can see where betrayal shall bring thee Death's obligatory Where all elements melt to one And odious memories perish together with you Should have seen the omen, the mirror Death's reality Cry, your threnody will be heard For thy suffocated minds The tortuous sound as angels' voices The phobia, in search for ancestral blood An arable force from the past Leads back to the atrocious roots The deep inner soul, never to be exposed The axiom you can't deny or better Drags you down into a lost abyss The hymn stops, fear will reign Death's cruelty Yield to Temptation They told you not to yield to temptation and opened their arms... ...Make your own inferences... Inscrutable chaos in my head Inevitably Greed will take its toll Why There's no place to hide Let me free myself The anathema's driving millions together in the pustules of our earth Greed and self-denial the cause of unimpeded desecration of the truth They told you not to yield to temptation but offered you only hypocrisy and ruin The phantom of damnation threw her coat over humanity Captive in the shackles of this indoctrination depraved souls wished to be pure Delight in deformity the last convulsions are building up a bridge to a new era The assumption of a faded supposition Never shall I be a marionette ! The embrace that smothers... Ephemeral An empty gaze reflects the contradiction Alleged strength, so fragile No more than compassion Ephemeral gatherings without interaction Be sincere and announce your departure A vallum of fairy tales smashed into reality Projected on the ruins of a castle in the air Beyond Me I know I'm alone, but somebody's watching me Follows me everywhere I go A cold flow surprised again, I shiver The presence of something, I can hear it's breathing Leave me alone, wherever you came from Hearing so much voices, no one's talking Running for something, nothing, in the black of the night Creeps around you, the invisible force that makes you crazy I can't remember how it feels to be warm, to be alone... Without that fear deep inside me Icons of death float on beyond me whispering my name and breathing my fear The menace of insanity Inner voices cry out for action Defenceless as I am Lost in the alleged paradise I'm not sure if I am here or elsewhere Searching for satisfaction Beyond the frontiers of my comprehension
