Seeking Infinity
1. Eye of the Universe
2. Control and Fire
I can’t deny how much you’ve changed me
history is but a shadow revealed by your shine
minds transformed by your burning flame
beacon of hope, illuminating our path:
and so, our great journey began…
We fought the dark, our journey bore your mark
should we accept your gift or will your flame engulf us all?
Now we have the tools to build our own future
everything is changing, and yet it seems the same
civilization is a spiral of eternal revolution
3. 500 B.C. to 30 A.D. - The Enlightened Ones
You can run, but you can’t hide from the quiet flow of time
the dark tentacles of fate push you towards your destiny
and when you think you are free to live your life as you please
you’ll find you’re nothing but a pawn of history
There is a fire, a desire in my head
eat my battered body, drink my wasted blood
and tell me endless tales of who I am:
the man who feels inside him that change has come
There is a flame that burns inside me
it guides me in the dark and it gives me strength
its glow reminds me of who I am:
the man who sees around him the seeds of a new world
And so you will find me roaming the markets
and selling my message in lonely despair
those who shout loudest, should only be heard last
away from their noise, my word will be heard
Like honey let my teachings come to thee
don’t let me be misunderstood again
open your hearts, and then you will agree
that I’m the man to change history
Together we shall walk, hush don’t be afraid
and we’ll exchange vows for the good of mankind
in mind and spirit, I’ll be your inspiration
comfort and joy in my name you will find

4. 1453: An Empire Crumbles
Lacrimosa…
Tearful will be that day of doom
when our empire shall collapse
One last moment I have left
to reflect upon my fate
one last second I have left
before my whole life fades away
What can you say, what can you do
When your dreams die in front of you?
The sands of time, have crushed me under their weight
One last moment I have left
so I sit back and watch the end
You’ll be there in my valley of memories
what was once deemed great, is now a relic of the past
stupefied, I wander in the modern world
where everything that mattered is now shattered like glass
As time goes on, empires collapse
and when dust settles, only their ruins remain
5. Emergence
What pains have we endured, and what an agony
until united our minds
stood and faced the world, while painfully it dawned:
we’re quickly running out of time
So much inhuman effort, so much sacrifice
the breeze of change has swept away
and all the aspirations we carried from the past
betrayed by the wheel of time
How can I find back what I’ve lost?
How can my old innocence be restored?
How can I erase the mistakes I made?
How can I take back bitter words I said?
So many times I’ve been deceived by my false hopes
‘till life stripped them away from me
I sought and found you again, my precious lifeline
but time has changed how we feel
6. Seeking Infinity, Reaching Eternity
Sometimes I’m afraid that when I close my eyes
the whole world will disappear
Sometimes I’m scared, you know when I look at the stars
That I’m lost -and God! for real
Infinity, eternity
they leave me and fly far away,
only one thought tortures me:
I am lost in an immense, indifferent and strange world
and when I’m there, in my own hell
my heart cries loud for you
I hear the sound of horns, I see a beast appearing from the sea
it has ten horns and seven heads
looks like a lion, like a leopard it crawls
I stretch out my shaking hand
and touch the body of the dancing Shiva
I want to scream, but I can’t
instead I cry, shake and shiver
Sometimes I really hope that the night never comes
the darkness scares me, you know
Sometimes when I feel that I finally reached the top
my castle of cards falls when the wind blows
I want you, I need you
I can’t exist without you
Don’t leave me when I’m lost again
hold my hand and join me to the end of the world
I hear the peal, it’s the Big Crunch
in front of me there are two worlds
the one expands, but shuts again
the other one already I’ve lost
Each of its particles pursues its own way
I’m standing here and watch all this
I’m all alone, what can I say?
I lost you and I miss you
there is no life without you
Don’t leave me when I’m lost again
in this crazy race to the end of the world
